Bounded To The Mafia King

chapter 2 the thief

Alice immediately became pale as her brain momentarily shut down as her little one slowly digests what just happened. Oh my God. What just happened?!? Did I just open the door for a thief? Oh, No! I should have just asked who was at the door before coming to a mindless conclusion and now…. She had let a thief into the house, and the man even points a gun at her head.

Oh, Lord! Please, I don't want to die. Forcing a smile, Alice said, “Please, you can take whatever you want. Just…. Don't kill me.”

She looked up pleadingly at the man and was shocked to find him barefaced. The man has a chiseled, pale face. Sharp jawline, pointed nose, small thin lips that look thinner as the man pressed his lips into a thin line and also.....a dark dangerous eye.

Alice gulped down hard. She had to admit, this man in front of her is a beauty. Peerless beauty. But..... What kind of thief would barge into someone house without a mask, if he is not stupid?!. Ahh..... Yes. He must be stupid. A stupid thief barge into the house of a stupid woman, and that stupid woman happens to be me! Isn't it funny?

A low grunt from the man brought Alice back to reality as she saw the man leaning on the door weakly, hissing in pain. Pain?!. Alice brain clicked and looked down at the man's waist, where his second hand rested, and saw it covered in blood. Fresh red blood.

“Ah.” Alice gasped softly when she saw that the man is injured. He is an injured thief! That's explained why he didn't wear a mask. He must have been attacked during his operation, raiding someone's house. Yes. That's must be what happened. But..... Why is he here? Did he run into here for refuge?

— Boss. We did not see him.

— Check that area, and that area. He couldn't have disappeared into thin air. He must be lurking around somewhere. Furthermore, he is injured after all.

Boss? The injured man is definitely him but boss? How can a police call another boss? Are they not supposed to call each other as captain, detective and so on but boss? Or...... They are not police! Ahh. Could it be that the house he raided are owned by gangs?!.

Alice looked at the door then at the man, whose body is already tensed and the gun is once again points at her head but this time. She heard the gun being c****d as the man's eyes glint dangerously, making Alice shudder in fear. Breaking out in cold sweat as she slowly raised her hands up, using one hand to zip her mouth, promising not to make a sound.

This small act of hers seemed to make the man a little less tensed, but he did not lower the gun, and poor Alice at this point is fighting with her inner self to stop from fainting.

— Knock. Knock.

Both Alice and the man looked at the door as Alice sucked in a deep breath. Feeling death close in on her and looked at the man whose deep gaze met hers and glint dangerously with a hint of warning in them. Alice immediately understands what the man's meant and silently prayed that the person knocking would stop and leave. But...... No.

The man did not stop but continued knocking and Alice is starting to feel irritated by the constant knocking, but the man is already more than irritated and could only use her hand to ask him to calm down, but her action seemed to anger the man more. And Alice at this period is no longer a chubby but thin lady. She seemed to have lost a lot of weights during this short period of time.

— Knock, knock.

The man growled and motioned to Alice to open the door which she slowly did, but she only opened it halfway as the man his behind the door still pointing the gun at her head.

Alice gulped down hard and barked at the man knocking the moments she opened the door, “Who are you? What did you want?!.”

The man was stunned at Alice mean gaze and unwelcoming attitude and looked her up and down and saw that she is in towel and the beads of sweat on her forehead proof his shameful thoughts. Oh, seemed like I disturbed her romantic moments. No wonder why she didn't want to answer my knockings. “Hmm. I apologize for disturbing you Miss.”

“Cut it! Straight to the point. What do you want?"

The man frowned at Alice cold behavior and answered, “Hmm. Miss, do you see a man in an overall black hoodie? He is also injured and......”

“Enough!.” Alice stopped the man coldly and glared hard at him. “How would I have seen someone when I am in my house? If you have nothing to say. Please leave!.” And then, she slammed the door shut.

“Ugh. What a nasty woman!.” The man at the door grunts and leave.

Hearing the sounds of footsteps leaving, Alice signed in relived and looked at the man pointing the gun at her head and said, “He is gone.”

The man lowed the gun and then staggered and fall face flat on the ground. Alice was stunned and cautiously walked over to him and poke him a little to get a response from him, but the man did not move. She then turned him around and saw that he has fainted.

“Oh. Great! I should call the police.” Alice said smiling picks her phone.
