The Princess and the Heartless : A Mafia Romance のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

“Dinner at the house tonight. And by the way, Uncle will be fetching you after school, dad said so,” my youngest sister coldly said from the phone. And before I could say something, she hung up the call. When I looked at the clock inside our classroom, it pointed at 7 o’clock just in time and the bell rang. Even when the instructor hadn't finished yet with her discussion, everyone stood up and grabbed their stuff to leave. She had a disappointing look on her face. I also stood up, grabbed my stuff as my mind went blank. I didn’t know what I should do when my uncle gets here. Usually, in a situation like this, I would have planned something to keep my composure firm, but when it comes to him, my fear becomes dominant and afterwards, I wouldn’t know what to do. Up until now, I still couldn’t find the courage to face him after all what he did to me. I left the room without saying anything to our instructor like I always do. I went to the bathroom’s direction, but before I could reac

“Uhm… Just curious, how exactly are you related to dad?”“We’re business partners. I’m one of your company’s investors. I’m just actually your new investor, I started investing two or three months ago and hell, I already started earning. Your family’s business is pretty much in demand in the market, huh.”I forcedly nodded and smiled. He probably meant about the dirty businesses of my family. My dad and two brothers facilitate the family’s gun trafficking business. Not just guns, all kinds of war equipment are being distributed by my family in different parts of Asia and Europe. My father is a general, my brothers also hold higher titles in the military so they know a lot of stuff about wars. Our main customers are the criminals and even the governments.On the other hand, my mom is a pharmacist and my two other sisters are both doctors. They ran the family’s huge pharmaceutical company and our personally owned hospitals in different parts of the country. These two businesses of ours

I guess I hurted his ego 'cause when I got out of my walk-in closet, all my mini action figures were scattered on the floor.I shook my head in dismay. “What a shameless childish bastard.”I started picking up the figures until I saw the crocheted flowers Lurcos gave me also scattered on the floor. And that's when my blood boiled even more. The audacity! I fucking hate him!I picked up the flowers, cleaned it and placed it back to the window.After cleaning, I put on light makeup to make myself look more presentable. I wore a green knee-length backless dress and paired it with 3-inch white heels. I also wore my favorite crocheted white cardigan.I put on my handbag with only a phone, wallet, and a penknife inside. Better be safe especially that I'll be going with a scumbag with anger issues.I then got out of my room and went downstairs. I saw him, smiling while talking to my dad. He’s a good actor, huh. Wait until he sees me with my acting skills.I plastered a sweet smile on my lips

“Well, I’m overwhelmed that you feel that way. And it simply means that even if you barely knew a person, you two could still be good friends together,” he replied. “And I bet, you’re probably happy by now if I am the one you are with.”How I wish it was just him, too.“Anyways, did you try on the suits you bought last night?”“Yup, and they fit just enough for my size. You are good at body estimation.”“You know what, I think it would be more appealing if you’re going to like braiding your hair or something to make you look clean to look at.”“Princess, it’s my hair that makes me look appealing. But, if you say so, you better be the one to fix my hair on that day. I trust your taste more than my personal hairdresser.”I rested my head on my seat and closed my eyes. I couldn't believe I could still feel the calmness amidst this so-unfortunate day of my life. Where was this kind of man at when I needed someone like him before?! But, I still do need to be careful with him. He may be ni

We heard a sudden loud music from the neighborhood as if there was a party going on. It’s broad daylight, why do people do parties at this time of the day?!I turned to the man. “I’ll be saying sorry in advance. There’s always a party going on with one of your future neighbors. But, you don’t have to worry much since your soon-to-be house is sound proof,” he assured us.I smiled, indicating that it’s fine with me. “We will be heading on our way out now,” I bid my goodbye to the man while Sebastian went into his car without saying anything.“Can’t wait to see you two move over here,” the man said, smiling.“We’ll see,” I replied and followed Sebastian to the car. He then maneuvered the car without saying anything.We were both silent throughout our journey. I didn’t bother asking him where we are heading ‘cause he’s obviously not in the mood.After a few more minutes, we are now passing by a familiar surrounding. I’m pretty sure this was the same area we passed by when we headed to the
