"....do you Mr Amber take Miss Lexy to be your wedded wife till the end of time?" I waited for a response, I was supposed to be standing in front of my husband to be, waiting for him to say yes and then get wedded to him for the rest of my miserable life,but guess what? It wasn't My husband to be in front of me, it was his best friend holding up his phone! My husband to be claimed he had important things to do and so he wouldn't make it hear in person! And so,he decided to do a voice -not video call!! "Yeah sure whatever", he said immediately and hung the phone. I paused first... realizing what just happened. And then the conclusion was done. I was doomed! ********* Being forced to marry a well feared and known gangster is bad, but not knowing who you're married to is worse! Lexy finds herself being forced to become the wife of a well known serial killer and Don of all Don's. She finds herself trapped in all angles as she realizes that she can't leave this marriage until one of them is dead, and she gladly puts herself on the front line to die first than spend her entire life with blood and guns all over again like her previous life. But her Don doesn't give up on her anytime soon no matter how infuriating she was and keeps his vow he made to her mother. Allowing herself to finally submit, she realizes her life is about to destroy ten times more than how it was before. Will she finally break from his charm over her, or will she stay and fight with the most feared gangster in the world, the Don of all Dons

Bab 1

A

As a feminist, marrying someone you were forced to or being an exchange for money or power was something I swore never to do.

I had set my standards to be one woman that men will crave but never get.

But today,I was going to break them all.

I was going to change everything I had ever built and suffered for years.

I took a deep breath in and released it as I stared at myself on the mirror.

I didn't have a choice.

I had to do this for my father.

My dad was into dirty businesses and they started backfiring at him and it's not only affecting him but he says he feels like his enemies are going to come for me too .

I tried to convince him that nothing would happen to me and that I'm a strong woman and that I don't need protection, but he insists.

Few weeks after my convocation from college he calls me to come home for an emergency and he says that I must get married immediately.

I laughed and told him that it is not in my list of things to do presently to get married and he pleads with me, he tells me his enemies are coming for me and the only way to protect me is for them is for me to get married.

Now things would have been better if he had asked me to find myself a husband, maybe I would have found some guys that use to hit on me back then in college and strike a deal to pretend to be my husband, because I seriously do not understand how he thinks a man would save me from My enemies.

But then he dropped the bombshell.

He wants me to get married to one of his notorious gangster friend -Amber Matthew.

Amber Mattew was the most dangerous and feared gangsters in the country and even in the continent. He's known as the "Don" and he's as brutal as hell and everyone fears him.

I haven't actually seen him before, but the rumors have it that he could kill even without breathing and he controls even the government.

He was bastard rich and people fear him even more than the president.

And somehow, my father has been able to successfully make this man think of marrying me just so he could protect me from my enemies.

Now that alone will make him feel like I'm dependent on him and I don't like it because he'll make it look like I can't live without him.

Disgusting.

Every Gangster...every Don...every Mafian... they all disgust me.

Sometimes I hate my father for getting involved in all this because this was the same way my mother died, she was poisoned by my father's enemies.

And he begged me to please accept to marry Amber because he doesn't want to loose me too.

And he said he wished he had chosen the right path...but now it's too late.

And that is how I found myself standing in front of this mirror in my wedding dress.

I never spoke to or met Amber even after accepting the proposal.

But my father assured me that he wasn't looking like a troll and he was 3 years older than me.

I felt reassuring hands on my shoulder.

"You look so beautiful", My best friend Samantha said standing beside me.

I forced a smile.

"Not actually how I expected my wedding day to be but yeah...I can manage", I said.

She chuckled.

"You should be happy, you're marrying the most influential man in the continent", she said.

I scrunched my face disgusted.

"And who told you I wanted to live by the honor of another man's name or achievements? ", I said not so excited.

She patted my shoulder.

"Just be careful okay? he's a very dangerous man", She said giving me a sad smile.

"I'm not afraid of a mortal like me, he can't do nothing to me, and if it gets too bad, I'll just leave and allow myself get killed by my father's enemies than be that woman that died in her "Husband's" house", I said unafraid.

She chuckled.

"Okay her Majesty ", she said laughing as she finished up with my makeup.

Then, there was a knock on the door.

Seconds after, my father walked in.

I rolled my eyes at him.

He looked sad, really really sad.

"Sam can I uhh, have a moment with my daughter", he said nervously.

Sam looked at me and then him and then patted my shoulder and left.

I still didn't turn to look at him, I continued with my makeup.

"I'm so sorry..... for bringing you into this -", he started.

"Sorry changes nothing actually", I said sternly.

"I know...but-"

"Please can you not make this thing any more difficult before I change my mind? my whole life I've been trapped from one door to another and just 4 years of being free you decide to trap me into a marriage with someone I have never seen for the rest of my life and you come here and tell me sorry!", I yelled.

He swallowed.

"I know... I'm a horrible father, I know I've made a lot of mistakes in the past and now it's affecting you but I would rather die than watch anyone kill you, and they know you're my weakness... they know very well that if they get to you they'll get to me. And I don't want you dying because of my mistake, you're all I have and I don't want to loose you too.

They fear Amber, the whole nation does, and and when I explained things to him, he understood and he accepted.

Please, don't throw this away, he's the only one that can save you at the moment.... please just stay with him until at least my enemies are all dead... please ", he was crying now.

I should have been crying now too, but I was too strong for this.

I walked up to him slowly with a frown on my face and hugged him.

No matter what... he's my dad and he's doing all he can to protect me.

"I'm sorry my angel, I'm really sorry, I'm make it up to you I promise", He said.

I pulled away and cleaned his tears.

"It's okay father, clean your tears", I said.

"I'm so sorry", he said.

I nodded.

"Let's go", I said and he interlocked my fingers with mine.

We walked side by side till we reached the hall.

I looked around, there weren't many people there because apparently my "Fiance" said he doesn't want too many people present.

Just few friends from college and then few of my Dad's friends.

I looked at the altar and I saw a man dressed In a black suit with deep brown hair and a pair of green eyes.

He looked handsome to be honest, very cute.

Is this Amber?

He looks nothing like how people describe him.

I was expecting to see a demon that fell from the sky,but this looked like an angel.

Daddy walked me to the alter and handed me over to him.

He smiled at me, that's weird because rumors had it that he never smiled.

"Hi, I'm James, it's nice to meet you", he said.

ohhhh so this isn't Amber.

"Nice to meet you", I said returning the smile.

"Sorry, Amber hasn't come yet, I'm his Best friend, he's probably stuck in Traffic or something, let's just wait for a little while or something ", he said and I nodded and stood at the podium and waited.

We waited....

And waited....

And waited....

Minutes rolled into hours and we all stayed in the hall waiting for this "Amber" guy for 4 solid hours.

I could tell even James was upset.

"What's keeping us till now?", Someone asked from the congregation.

"I'm sorry, he probably had an emergency to take care of, let me give him a call right away ", he said bringing out his phone to call Amber.

Such a gentle man.

He had freckles on his face too, and it was cute.

After dialing Amber's line,he put it on speaker and Amber pick.

"James ", I heard a deep husky British access at the end of the line.

"Dude where are you? we've been waiting for you for hours", James said slightly pissed.

"Waiting for me for what exactly? today's my day off, we talked about this last week", The British voice said.

"Obviously it's your day off, because today's your wedding day!", James said visibly pissed.

"Oh really? is that today? how come you didn't remind me?"

My heart sank into my chest.

You're supposed to be reminded about your wedding day?!!!

"Dude.... we'll talk about this later, just come over to the hotel, everyone is waiting for you", James said rubbing his temples.

"Uhhh, I can't", he replied.

"What the -?", I started but James beat me to it.

"What do you mean you can't, everyone has been waiting for you for hours now", James said.

"Well I'm not in Italy at the moment, I took a trip to Miami so.... yeah pretty sad", but in all honesty, it didn't look like he sounded sad.

"Well we'll still have to carry on with the wedding whether you're here or not, you'll exchange your vows through the phone ", James said.

The British voice groaned.

Like he had planned all this.. like he deliberately flew to Miami to avoid the wedding.

And fuck me for not thinking the same way he did and doing the same thing too.

"Fine .... let's get this over with. 10 minutes and we're done here ", he said and James sighed and rolled his eyes.

I swear that my legs feel numb all over.

The priest then started off with a short sermon on love and commitment and I zoned out.

How could I ever love someone like him?

Let's leave the rumors of how he's dangerous and brutal and heatless aside, a first impression would have been nice but no, he chose not to come!

I feel like this is going to be the biggest mistake of my life,but I have to do this....at least for my father.

And if I can't cope with things like this, I'll just leave.

".... Take Mr Amber to be your lovely wedded husband whom you would cherish till death do you apart?", the priest asked.

I almost scoffed, but I held myself from doing so.

Rest of my life?

I doubt we'll barely survive a day.

"Yes....I do", I said.

"And Mr Amber, do you...."

I spaced out again thinking of what I had gotten myself into, I swore I'll never pledge my loyalty to someone I do not like, but this is worse, this is someone I have never even seen.

"....Wedded wife, whom you will cherish all the days of your life till death do you both apart?",

There was silence in the room as no word came from the other side of the call.

My heart started racing as thoughts of him rejecting me clouded my thoughts.

No one has ever rejected me before, I was too beautiful, hot and attractive to be rejected, but then again he has never seen me before.

But why bring me here just to humiliate me when you could have done that a long time ago?

"Yeah sure whatever ", he said and cut the call.

There was silence for almost a minute.

My jaw hung in shock.

He just cut the freaking call!!

"Uhhh...I hereby pronounce you husband and uh...wife", The priest finished up nervously.

* * * * * *

Guess who slipped the ring into my finger in the end?

James!!!

James tried calling him back and it went into voice mail and so we had to carry on with the ceremony without him.

We were at the reception and I sat down there with a bottle of alcohol in my hands lost in thoughts.

What have I gotten myself into??

A gangster?

A Mafian?

A Don?

Whatever he calls himself...I just married him!

This wasn't part of my plan; Marrying someone like my father so that my kids my live to enjoy a happy life, but now I just married Someone who's worse than my father.

Sam came to seat next to me.

"You're nervous?," she asked.

I took a full sip of the bottle of wine in front of me forgetting my lady like manners.

"I just made the biggest mistake in the Universe Sam, what the hell did I just do?!!", I said holding my head.

"Hey calm down pumpkin, you need to breathe, you're getting too hard on yourself, I believe everything will work out for you", she said and I sank into her shoulder.

I just want to live a normal life.

After about an hour of wining , James announced it was time for me to leave and that they've packed my things in the car already.

"I'm gonna miss you", Sam said hugging me so tight.

"Me too", I replied.

"Make sure you text me everyday and feed me on juicy stories, okay? and please reach out to me if things get tough, you know I love you", she said and I nodded.

Soon as I broke out of the hug, my father was standing behind her with a sad face.

"I just don't know what to say other than sorry", he said.

I swallowed not in the mood for anything to get me emotional..

"It's fine father", he said and pulled me into a hug.

"I'll miss you", he whispered.

"Me too", I replied.

We pulled away from each other and I got into the Limo with James.

I sighed and laid my head on the window.

My life is about to get ten times more complicated than it has been.

I can feel it.

James was on his phone, really engrossed in whatever it is he was doing.

"Soooo...tell me about your friend... Amber", I said Trying to bring up a Convo.

He smiled.

"I really don't have anything to say at the moment, you'll just have to see for yourself", he said.

"Oh c'mon, don't I at least get a headstart on what I'm supposed to be expecting?", I asked.

He chuckled.

"Amber has fifty shades, it just depends on the one you're lucky to meet him in, that's the biggest hint I can say", he said and I nodded and relaxed back on the window.

Now I'm going to be married to someone like Amber, someone heatless and cruel.

Honestly I'm not even scared of him, I'm not even scared of what he may or may not do.... I'm just scared of how all this is going to end .

Once again...I hate my life.

I think I dozed off for a while...but then I jerked awake when we pulled up in front of this massive gate.The gate slowly opened and we rode into this huge massive but mini estate.There were Four buildings in the place all together and each of them looked heavenly.The place had flowers and gardens all around it , it looked too beautiful to be true.Then we drove into one of the houses and alighted.I stared at the house in shock.The down part was completely glass... everything.It was a duplex and it looked extra ordinary."Welcome home", James said smiling and he helped me with my dress as we walked into the building.I walked inside and observed the place.Everything was either white, grey or gold.He had a nice taste of fashion and the furnitures and lighting looked bloody expensive.I took my time to admire the beauty of this place...it was heavily.Are you sure a heatless Mafia boss lives here?Then, a middle aged woman appeared from one of the doors."Hello Mrs Williams, thi

He was handsome.... extremely handsome.He had this hot boy aura whenever he walked and he carried himself like what he was -a freaking king.But regardless of his amazing physical appearance, he had a very bad character and his name is well spoken of.In all honesty, I was expecting to meet him all pissed up with an angry look on his face and yell out me and probably punish me for shouting at him or something.But no.. he seemed calm and the total opposite of how I imagined him to be... maybe I caught him in a good mood.James did say he had fifty shades of his personality.I went back to my room and told Sam about it and man did she scream.She asked me if he was ugly and I couldn't lie... he was too hot to even lie about.But then I told her not to freak about it too much that he was a criminal, a gangster and a Mafian, all in one.I took a shower and found some comfort clothes to wear and found Mrs Williams and asked her if she could get me some paint.. like a lot of colors.She d

I was freaking hungry as hell.I was used to going to bed without eating honestly...but maybe it was because I barely ate anything at all during the day time.I stared at the clock,it was 2:35am.I groaned and got outta bed.I got downstairs and headed to the kitchen hoping I would find at least even milk to drink . I got into the kitchen and turned on the light. I went to the fridge and it was empty.Damn it.I just remembered Mrs Williams saying that she had to go grocery shopping tomorrow.I heard someone chuckle behind me and I swiftly turned and saw Amber leaning on the door with a black tank top and some shorts, he was smirking."What?", I asked."I'm guessing your diet turned out bad?", he said dragging the diet.I rolled my eyes."No...I just need milk", I mumbled staring at the fridge."You hungry?", he asked.And I swear to God I was badly hungry.But no...I wouldn't give him the satisfaction to prove me wrong."No", I mumbled.He strolled past me and opened one of the cupbo

I decided to take James words to heart pay Amber a visit talk to him.And trust me... it's not going to be a nice sweet conversationThe next morning, I headed straight for his house office without knocking and walked in.All eyes in the room went on me and all conversations stopped.Amber was sitting behind his chair doing some paperwork, he slowly lifted his head up when he noticed his brothers stopped talking.His eyes raked my body thoroughly and I swear if eyes had powers I would have been naked by now.His stares were getting really uncomfortable,so I cleared my throat."My eyes are up here", I said and rolled my eyes.He slowly took away his stares from my body to my eyes and then gave me a questioning look.I don't know if it's me or is it that killers have to be so goddamn handsome...is it like part of their eligibilities while signing up? because dammmnnn this man is fucking hotttt.His hair is everywhere on his face and he's not making any effort to remove it, and then the

"Hey James", I said."Sorry uhh, I kinda overhead your conversation, shit that was bad", he said.I shrugged, "Well I was just taking your advice", I said with a shrug."No no no, I said talk to him about it, not yell at him Jesus Lexy no one in the universe has ever yelled at him like that, I swear not even his dad", he said."So what's he going to do? throw me out? or kill me? punish me? take me through painful torture?, I don't mind, anything to get me out of this house", I said with a shrug.He stared at me with a shocked face."You know you're a very wild lady", he said.I laughed, "I'm not, I'm just a feminist and I don't see my feminism dreams coming true if I stay in this building like this", I said."Just try not to upset Amber that much, he's really temperamental", James said."Oh my God I will so upset him till he looses it and actually send me out of here", I said heading back to my bed."Think about Martins, do you really think this whole marriage thing is going to work?

Maybe this is how I'm meant to be.Caged...Alone...And unloved.This was my destiny maybe, to be moving from one circle of danger, fear and restriction to another.I had lost everyone in my family because of this same Mafia nonsense, and now the only way to protect me is sell me into another dangerous and destructive family that'll probably lead me to suicide if I'm not careful.All I want is happiness and true freedom.But what do I get?Pain and suffering... after everything I ever went through before now this?I sighed.My door flew opened interrupting my thoughts.I jerked up from my bed."What the fuck Amber what happened to knocking?", I asked.Ever since our fight two nights ago I've done my best to avoid him and his entire family completely....well except for Mrs Williams and James."My father wants to say you", he says impatiently ignoring my comment.I froze, "What?", I asked."My father wants to see you", he repeated again."Why?", I asked."Geez I don't know Lexy, he hea

Samantha was crying the time she met me on the floor unable to do anything because I felt like I was being choked by something I could barely see."Just take me to my room, please I'll direct you", I managed to say and she carried my in her arms and headed towards the door.Immediately she opened it, Aaron was standing there."What happened to her?", he asked asked seemed like he was panicking."I don't know, she just fucken called me that she needs help, I'm supposed to be asking you that! if anything happens to my best friend I swear to God it won't be funny ", she said pissed.She and Aaron managed to get me upstairs and dropped me on my bed."Breathe Lexy, breathe. Take a deep breath in, release it, in , out, in out, in out ", she said placing her hands on my shoulder."Fuck this is bad, I'm going to call Amber", Aaron said standing up."No", I managed to choke out."I'm sorry Lexy, but he needs to see this ", he said and left the room.Sam grabbed a towel and ran to the bathroom

Sam had to leave the next day, she said she had work stuffs to take care of and in as much as I didn't want her to leave, she was right, she had to go.I can't rope my best friend into my toxic marriage , she has her own life to live and I understand that.She begged me to call her if anything happens again and I told her I will.Now it was just me and my colourful room and nothing to do.I hadn't gone downstairs all day, in fact I barely ate that day.I just munched on the vegetable chips I had in my room and drank yogurt.All I just wanted was to fall asleep and wake up and find myself back in America away from all these men in my life that seems to be fucking me up.Then about few minutes to dinner, Mrs Williams came into my room with a sympathetic face.I groaned inwardly.The last thing I needed right now was someone feeling pity for me.Another rule in feminism states that you should not allow people pity you, it'll make you look weak, especially if you succumb to it."How are yo

Everything around me started breaking, I can't believe I'm still breathing till now.The anxiety attack pulls In again and I see myself shaking, shaking visibly and my breath starts to hitch."Lexy are you okay?", he asked staring at me.My lips are trembling, and I know it's more than visible.I swallowed hard willing to fight back, I won't break down in tears in front of this man I won't cry."I don't want to see him, please", I said in a whisper, controlling the way I spoke was hard, it was evident that I was loosing it."Lexy...", he called me out and I don't know if he's trying to find out what's wrong with me or he's saying that because I need to see his father."I don't want to see him", I yell this time and then cover my face, I'm visibly shaking right now.My whole life is completely doomed, and it's going to replay again just like before."God I'm just tired of all this please I don't want to see anyone, I just want to be on my own right now.
