Betty's POV

No, I don’t want to think about it. Today is my graduation day, and I will focus on that!

After I shower and get cleaned up, I put on my uniform. Mass starts at 8 AM, so we still have an hour to go. Mom and Dad will come with me, but Drake doesn't need to. I don't think he's interested in attending Mass. He probably doesn't have any religious affiliation to begin with.

It's alright! People who live on the other side of the world don't focus on religion. They have their own belief

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 26. Formality

    Betty's POVJason left, brokenhearted. I sighed, feeling hurt as well. I understood what he was trying to do. He had already told me that he liked me. However, I couldn't reciprocate those feelings. It’s not that I have to—I just don’t feel the same way. I see him not as a romantic interest, but as a brother.I felt sorry for him because of that. I don't know if I will see him again. Probably not. Who knows?After the mass and lunch, the graduation march began. It took quite some time to complete the entire program because thousands of graduating students from all departments needed to walk across the stage. In my department, I also delivered a speech of thanks and encouragement.On the way back to Drake's mansion, I was quiet. Mom and Dad constantly talk about everything. They are very happy. Diego keeps them happy too with his silly jokes as he drives us back.It's a long day, and I'm already tired. I can't wait to jump in the hot shower and sleep on my soft bed.I consider myself l

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 25. New Journey

    Betty's POV .No, I don’t want to think about it. Today is my graduation day, and I will focus on that!After I shower and get cleaned up, I put on my uniform. Mass starts at 8 AM, so we still have an hour to go. Mom and Dad will come with me, but Drake doesn't need to. I don't think he's interested in attending Mass. He probably doesn't have any religious affiliation to begin with.It's alright! People who live on the other side of the world don't focus on religion. They have their own beliefs and faith, and it's all up to them as long as they don't hurt anyone. However, here in this country, our religion plays a significant role in our lives.I look at myself in the life-size mirror, still thinking about Drake. His image from earlier, wearing only a towel, lingers in my mind and plays on repeat.“Don’t be stupid, Betty. You know the rules,” I remind myself, forcing a smile.Just then, Carmella walks in, smiling brightly."Are you ready?"I nod as she looks at me from head to toe an

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 24. Embarrass

    Betty's POV I open my eyes, feeling a bit groggy. I roll over and reach for my pillow, covering my face with it.What did I do last night? Why does my head feel like it's going to split in two?Oh, right, I remember now. Carmella and I went out partying. I can’t help but chuckle as I think about what she said regarding the frog prince."My frog prince..." I bite my lower lip, thinking about it. I can still feel his lips on mine, and it feels wonderful."My frog prince?" Automatically, my eyes open and my body jerks up."Drake?"My heart races as if I've run a marathon. I remember what happened. Drake kissed me!"Oh, God."I rub my eyes and look around. My face is flushed red, and everything around me feels unfamiliar."Hang on, where am I?"The room is partially dark, but light filters through the drapes outside. There’s no clock on the wall, which gives the space a cave-like feeling. A masculine and alluring scent of aftershave lingers in the air until my gaze falls on several large

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 23. My frog prince

    Betty's POVSomeone rescued me just in time."I'm sorry…""It's alright. Are you okay?""Y-Yes, I'm good."He helped me sit back down and knelt in front of me, looking at my feet.I felt dizzy. I thought I was okay, but I was wrong; the drink was too strong, and I lost my balance."Ouch..." I wiggled my right foot and felt a slight pain in my ankle."You sprained your foot. Let me help you a little bit."He smiles when our eyes meet, and it's an enchanting smile—handsome and neat in every way.He’s the complete opposite of Drake, with no tattoos on his hands or neck. His hair is slightly disheveled, and his tie hangs loosely. I feel the warmth of his hand as he unexpectedly takes hold of my foot and twists it."Ouch!" I bit my lower lip when I felt it."It's better now," he said, releasing my foot so I could wiggle it."Yeah, that fixed it. Thank you," I replied with a smile.He stood up, and I looked up at him. He was tall."Glenn Mondragon," he said as he extended his hand for a han

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 22. Frog Prince

    Betty's POV"Are you sure this is going to be okay, Carmella? We should tell Drake."“What?” she laughs as we sit inside the taxi heading to the bar."You don’t know Drake, Betty. He can be very protective and possessive at times. It’s better not to tell him where we are going. He will find us later anyway. Don't worry.""He will? How?" I ask, staring at Carmella in confusion."There's nothing Drake can't do. I've experienced this before, and no matter where I go, he always finds me. So don't worry. You'll be surprised later. But before that, let's have some fun first!""O-Okay..." I pull down the side of my dress again."What does Drake do in Italy, Carmella?""Oh, well, he manages some businesses over there. He’s quite good at it! He even managed the businesses of the person he was in love with back then. It was so foolish of him. Drake is such a fool when it comes to love. He’s not the type to give up easily if he cares for someone. He will walk with you until the end of your journ

  • When a Mafia Boss, Drake Del Fiore, Fall At Your Feet   Chapter 21. Escape

    Betty's POV.I feel like a worm that has been salted—uncomfortable in what I’m wearing. The skimpy dress clings tightly to my body. It's too short, and my legs are too exposed. I'm not used to wearing a dress like this. It feels like if I bend over, I might expose myself. I keep pulling it down, trying to stretch the material to cover more."Look at you. You're so pretty, Betty! My God, Drake is so lucky to have you."I force a smile at Carmella. Her eyes sparkle as she takes in my entire outfit."I'm honestly uncomfortable with this, Carmella. Do you have another dress that could cover my legs?""No, I don't have anything, and I suggest you keep that dress. You look beautiful in it.""You think so?" I replied, feeling uncertain."Yes, you do, Betty." She leveled her gaze at me, standing a bit taller."Tell me, Betty, when was the last time you went out and partied?"I shook my head slightly.It's embarrassing to admit, but I've never been to a night party. I have no experience with
