All Chapters of The Mafia Princess: Chapter 41 - Chapter 45

Jasmine / Hope   I stood in front of the door, thinking if I should knock or not. Well, I think I was raised with enough good manners and right conduct, so I guess I’ll knock, after all. I raised my hand and tapped gently at the door. It would have been safer to do this since who knows what he’ll do if I suddenly barged into the room. He might just kill me himself. Again. Plus, I’m not even sure if the door was unlocked in the first place. I heard footsteps approach the door. For someone as skilled as my father, I always wondered why he always makes such noise whenever he walks. Or maybe he was doing that on purpose. Whereas I always need to be as silent as a ghost. I glanced at the camera in front of the house. The apartment is very much like our own on the outside. I could hear him unlock the door and release the chain on the double lock.

Nikolai   “How long has it been, Nikolai?” Aleil says greeting me at the dock. “I was surprised when I received your call.” Aleil looked the same. With those round rimmed glasses and three piece suit. “Hey, Aleil. You’re looking well.” I commented, as I walked past him, taking the gun from underneath his coat and pointing it at his head.

He definitely left the magazine empty on purpose. It’s funny how he knew what kind of prank I would pull when we see each other. “What do you want?” He asked. “How about a drink?” I say.   “I didn’t think we

Jasmine / Hope   “Now let me be a little more courageous.” I said, kissing him ever so lightly on the lips. “Why are you behaving so adorably?” He says, as he spun me around and pinned me beneath him. Kissing me deeply, his tongue caressing mine. Why does he make me lose control? I thought as he hugged me closer, leaving trails of fire on my skin everywhere he touched. When I hold him like this, I want him even closer. When his lips touched mine, time seemed to have stopped. My heart thumped in my chest. I can only focus on the softness of his mouth, how exciting it is to capture all his senses. It's not clear if I was dreaming, but the way his fingers closed on mine was pure emotion. I half-opened his eyes, looking at him every time he came back to take a breath, to make sure it was more than just imagination. I wasn’t certain if nature rooted for this second or if my thoughts tricked me into a great present, howe
