Chapter 30: Wedding Bells
Ember Corbin
"Ember!" I turned around to see Candy wearing a beautiful pastel-colored dress. She looked so happy while holding a bouquet of roses.
"You look so pretty!" she exclaimed and jumped at me in excitement. Luckily, I'd been working out these past few days, so I managed to catch her and return the hug. I had to thank Lance for forcing me to stay in shape even after the self-defense classes were over.
"I told you this gown will suit you better," she commented while checking me from head to toe.
I was glad I listened to her as well. This gown was so magical. It was an off-shoulder dress, and the sleeves were attached to my arms, not on the dress. This long mermaid gown had these cute details on the tail.

Chapter 1: Fated MeetingEmber CorbinNot again.I peeked at the time on my phone after snoozing off the alarm for the third time. I was supposed to be awake by the first alarm, finish my breakfast by the second, and get out of the house by the third. But here I was, still in bed after the third alarm finished ringing.Jolting out of bed, I ran towards the closet room after freshening up, pulling out all the jumbled-up clothes to find a suitable one to wear. Nothing was up to my mood; I couldn't find a nice dress.As I was getting late for the 'Happy Kindergarten' and my job might end up being in the risk zone, I pulled out a maroon jumpsuit and changed into it from my pajama shorts quickly.Since I didn't have much time to tie my hair, I left it open and munched on a granola bar on my way out of the house.I ran as fast as I could to get a cab. Why could I never get up on time? This last moment of haste sucked. I knew the principal, Ms. Sophie, wouldn't fire me, but she might end up
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 2: His Revelation
Chapter 2: His RevelationEmber CorbinI watched the stranger bringing out something from beneath his suit. My eyes grew wide in shock seeing the black metal visible under the small blinking street light above us.The stranger pointed the revolver at the group of men, startling them. He spoke up in a tone that sent shivers to my spine, "One step forward, I will press the trigger. One step backward, I will rethink my decision of pressing the trigger. The choice is yours." When the men were thinking about what to do, the stranger further added, "Hurry up. My fingers are itching."As soon as the stranger had said that, the men turned back and ran away—all five of them.Once they were gone, I placed a hand over my chest, heaving a sigh of relief. "Thank God, they ran away. Of course, they would after seeing a scarier man than them. If I make him my bodyguard, people will never talk to me in fear," I mumbled to myself, as if I could magically afford a bodyguard who himself owned a Bugatti.
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 3: Mid-way Dropping
Chapter 3: Mid-way DroppingEmber CorbinA Mafia leader? So basically a criminal rescued me from a crime scene, I mean, a crime of which I would be a victim, if he wasn't there on time. Interesting.If he hadn't saved me, I would be scared of him, but right now, I felt safe even while being in the car with a mafia leader. Never knew people with an illegal profession like him had a properly functioning heart. So even the bad people have a soft corner for a woman in need like me."It's intriguing," I mumbled and found Lance looking at me as if I had grown two heads. "What?" I asked, arching an eyebrow."How can you find it intriguing? Aren't you scared?" he asked, his voice holding disbelief."I don't know." I shrugged my shoulders. "I would've been scared, but you saved me. So why should I be afraid of you?""Why shouldn't you when I can still kill you anytime I want?" he uttered.I chuckled at his facial expression. He was expecting me to get scared like other normal people, but he h
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 4: See You Never
Chapter 4: See You NeverEmber CorbinAfter I regained consciousness, I wasn't able to open my eyes immediately. My head was aching when I tried to open my heavy eyelids.Where am I?I could feel a few strands of hair over my forehead, so I tried to push them away using my hand. But I felt my hands tied when I tried to use them. Why the hell am I tied?Finally, I managed to open my eyes. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the fully white painted room. It was a square-shaped room—totally empty. There was not a single thing here, except the chair made of steel that I was tied with tape. It was creepy and scary.I was kidnapped, no doubt. But why? Was it because I met Lance yesterday and one of his enemies kept a close watch on him? Did his enemies think we were close? Foolish enemies. If I and Lance were close, why would he drop me in the middle of the road at night?I sucked in a deep breath.I was unable to open my mouth because it was covered with tape. It was suffocating.I started
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 5: So Dead
Chapter 5: So DeadEmber CorbinThe situation at the kindergarten was insane when I arrived.After earning a glare from Ms. Sophie, I engrossed myself in taking care of the kids. Apparently, they were running around because one of them had brought a fake cockroach."Peter, if you do this again, I will double your Math homework. Do you want me to do that?" I asked a five-year-old student of mine. He was the one who had brought a fake cockroach, scaring the entire class.He shook his head quietly. Lowering his gaze, he said, "Sorry, Ms. Corbin."I ruffled his hair with a smile and said, "It's okay. Now, go back to your seat."After that incident, I started taking the class.###It was a really busy and bothersome day. All I could think of was what had happened in the morning. Even though it was a misunderstanding, I was still abducted. The horrific part was the small claustrophobic room. Did the Mafia leaders have such scary cells to capture their enemies?Gosh, that was so scary.I kne
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 6: No Bothering - Deal
Chapter 6: No Bothering - DealEmber CorbinI regretted not making a run for it and sitting down here to listen to Lance.Even though there was bustling going on around us, all I could hear was the pin-drop silence between the two of us as the cold metal was firmly pressed on my skin. If I moved even a little bit, I might end up losing a finger or two, or maybe even end up losing my right hand. If it wasn't for the knife, I would feel like I was in love because my heartbeat was running like it was on a marathon.After spending an entire month in the mental asylum, I thought nothing would ever scare me like this. But the latest incident with rapists a few nights ago and today was bringing out that extreme fear. Fear engulfed my entire being, and I was shivering. I gulped, afraid to look into his cold green eyes.He hadn't uttered a single word after saying I was so dead. Should I give an explanation for my deeds and apologize to him before it was too late?Better late than never, Ember
My Mafia Rescuer Chapter 7: Clubbing Gone Wrong
Chapter 7: Clubbing Gone WrongEmber CorbinIt had been eight days since my deal with Lance. After that, we never talked with each other ever again. I saw him once near a café and wanted to go say hi but refrained from doing so. He didn't want to be friends with me, I had to respect that.It was evening, and I was sitting with a chocolate ice cream tub in my hand while watching a movie on Netflix when my phone rang up. I paused the movie and picked up the call seeing it was Candy. It was supposed to be her work hour soon, then why was she calling me?"Hey," I greeted her. "Is everything okay? You were supposed to get ready for work.""Hey, Em. Yeah, everything is okay.""Then, why did you call me? Do you have less work pressure today?" I asked curiously."Tomorrow is Sunday, which means you are free tonight. Why don't we have a girls' night out today?" she offered.I looked at myself, wearing a long oversized t-shirt with shorts, sitting comfortably on the couch. "As much as it sounds

Chapter 8: Lost On RoadsEmber Corbin"It will be wiser if you put the gun down. Don't you think so, Savannah?" Lance uttered coldly.A shiver ran down my spine hearing his tone. It was the same tone he used when he was playing with the knife over my hand eight days ago. But I shouldn't be scared because this time it wasn't me at gunpoint. Well, technically I was under gunpoint, but I wasn't the one being threatened by Lance.How did Lance know her name, though? Wait, what was he doing here in the first place when I clearly remember Faith telling me he hated crowds?When the woman, whom Lance called 'Savannah' didn't lower her gun, I retorted, "See? She isn't wise. If she was, she wouldn't even argue with me in the first place. I mean, do I look like a person who will argue?""Shut up," Lance cut me off harshly, and I sealed my mouth. Glaring at Savannah, he repeated for the final time, "Down or trust me, your family won't have a body for you to place in the coffin."Gulping hard, Sav
