FORBIDDEN DEAL WITH THE MAFIA BOSS のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Lucille’s POVThe car stopped before our apartment building but no one stepped out of the car. King had driven us in silence and I wanted to keep it that way, ignoring it like it didn’t matter and I was exhausted but the longer I saw that look in his eyes, it made me feel uneasy.“You never told me what you spoke about with Ben,” I said.“Affectionate, I see,” he said.“That’s not… you’re not going to tell me?” I asked. “We haven’t known each other for a long time but I know that you’ve never looked like that.”“Like what?”“Upset. What could Benjamin had told you?”King stared at me, long, hard. I tried to understand what that look meant but I came up with nothing. “You should get some rest,” he said.I pushed the door open and just as I was about to step out, he spoke again. “Accompany me to a party tomorrow,” he said. “Not work related.”I wanted to say no

King’s POVI should have gone after her. Stopped her. Tell her the fucking truth but wouldn’t that just upset her even more?I took a seat, filling my glass with wine. “Boss,” Gary stepped into the room. He handed me a new pack of cigar. “The batch has arrived,” he said.I hummed, then lit up a cigar. Gary stared longer than I wanted him to. “Do you have anything to say?” I asked.“Permit me,” he said.“I am not giving up on Lucille,” I said.He wore a look that told me all I needed to know. I knew what he was worried about but I wasn’t. My phone lit up with Lucille’s name flashing on the screen. I picked it up to a panicked voice.“K-king?!”“Lucille!” I got off the chair. “What’s wrong?”“I- The brakes, it’s not working,” her voice shook.“Where are you?!” I asked, sending a signal to Gary to find her.He rushed out almost i

Lucille’s POVMy head hurts.I felt tired. I shook my head, trying to come to. Then I smelt it —fire, smoke. I sluggishly opened my eyes. My vision was still unclear. I coughed, the smoke sipping into my lungs.I darted my eyes around. The smoke had engulfed the space. I tried to move but couldn’t. I was tied up. Strapped on a pillar. The fire only increased. “Help!” I screamed.I coughed, the air unbearable. “Help me!” I screamed once more.I choked once I tried again. I couldn’t breathe and still felt tired. My eyelids felt tired. My body felt foreign. “They drugged me,” I thought to myself.It hasn’t worn off. They were trying to kill me!I panicked, stuggling with the ropes that kept me bound to the pillar. The rough edges of the ropes, pricked my skin but weren’t enough to keep me awake. My eyelids kept getting heavier.“Lucille!” I snapped my head to t

Lucille’s POV“Pick one.”I chuckled, shaking my head. “No, you’re going to trick me again,” I told him.“No tricks this time,” Benjamin said with a michievious smile. He brought his folded arms forward, moving them back and forth, urging me to pick. “Fine,” I stared at both of them a while before tapping his left. “This one.”“Final answer?”“The right hand looks tempting,” I searched his face. “Yes, final answer.”“Okay,” he shrugged opening his left hand.He laughed as my shoulders fell. “Again?”He opened his other hand and it was also not there. “Where is it?”He took it out of his pocket. “Trickster,” I said as we both laughed. “Where did you learn to do that?”“Youtube. After a long twelve hours of torture, they explained the trick in the last minute,” he said, laughing.“Well, that was fun,” I said.

Lucille’s POVI held the sink as I threw up my lunch. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and my heart skipped a beat. I looked dead. My eyes were sunken, dark circles around them. I was pale, like any moment I could drop.My head spun and I gagged once more, throwing up some more. I splashed some water on my face before stepping out of the bathroom. “Honey,” Benjamin took my hand, helping me to the bed.He fluffed the pillow before guiding me down. I felt tired. I couldn’t look at him. Katherine’s words but the real truth was something I had ignored for so long. Could I really be with him again?He tried to kill me. He cheated on me and worse, it felt as though his efforts were not just working. At the moment, yes but not in the long run. He was trying to make it all better, his efforts told me that.The doctor checked on me and the nurse administered my injections which were more than it usually was. I laid
