In Love With A Gangster

New girl

“The smoking queen.” He teased and Lucky laughed.

“Why are you calling me that?” I asked, raising a brow.

“Don’t you remember? Last night you were a pro, you smoked like you have been doing it for years.” He muttered.

“Leave me alone, my head hurts,” I groaned, holding my head and screwing up my face.

“Come with me bro, I will give you a remedy.” He said and put his hand around my shoulder. I blushed and we walked to his room and he walked to his drawer and tossed a bottle to me.

“Drink it, you will feel better.” He stated and I gulped up the drink and sat on the bed.

“Let me tell you something, you are the only nice one here,” I muttered and he smirked.

“Thanks, Red.” He beamed.

“Is there any mission today?” I inquired.

“Yes there is, but Lion said you are not going.” He declared.

“Why?” I asked with my mouth hanging loosely.

“Because he is starting your mutual art class today,” he stated.

“Wow i almost forgot, but he said you are also my teacher,” I muttered.

“He has changed his mind,” he replied.

“Why? But you are the only one I am comfortable around.” I whined.

“Wow really? You make me feel special.” He beamed, smiling from ear to ear.

“Don’t overthink it,” I muttered, rolling my eyes.

“Steve, I need to go grab some snacks in the kitchen,” I said, standing to leave.

“Wait, we are not allowed to eat, or, less the boss eats with us.” He muttered.

“But I am so hungry,” I said and my stomach growled.

“You are part of the gang now, so you have to wait,” He declared.

“Alright, I will wait,” I mumbled.

“Promise me,” Steve said, looking keenly at me.

“ I promise,” I muttered and crossed my fingers behind me.

I walked out of Steve’s room,. Give me a break. Who did he think he was to boss me around? “Promise me,” I said and laughed evilly.

I tiptoed to the kitchen, and I saw the chef cooking. He was frying eggs, flipping them in the frying pan.

“Man am hungry,” I whined, holding my stomach as I stared at the egg and licked my lower lip.

“I heard no one is allowed to eat or less the boss is eating.” He stated

“Who set these rules anyway,” just then an idea pop into my head.

“Boss sent me to arrange the food on the table with you,” I said with a toothy smile.

“Nice try, I will do that myself.” He replied.

“Wow, you are smart,” I mumbled and walked out of the kitchen. Why would someone take the whole day to sleep?

I stood in front of Lion’s room, and slowly opened the door and snooped into his room. The bed was empty. I shot the door and someone tapped me on the shoulder from behind. Who could that be? I turned to look at the person biting my lower lip nervously. And my gaze landed on Lion.

“Looking for me?” he inquired with his hand behind his back.

“No-no I wasn’t.” I stuttered

“If you are not looking for me in my room, then who are you looking for?” he asked, raising a brow.

“ I am sorry,” I said and bowed slightly and tried to walk away.

“Come on bro, stop being such a baby.” He remarked and put his hand around my shoulder.

We walked to the dining table.

Everyone is seated, the chef serves different dishes, and I pick a fork from the table and try to pork it into the sliced chicken on the table.

                                                                       Author’s POV

Red tries to take the first bite, and Steve hit her hand away.

“Ouch! What was that for?” she inquired with pouted lips.

“The boss is always the first to take the first bite,” he declared.

“Blah blah blah,” she stated, rather angry.

They all started eating. Lion stopped to stare at Red, who was eating like a hungry lion, with the food falling out of her mouth.

“Red take it easy,” Lion muttered.

“I can’t help it.” She replied with her mouth full of food.

Minutes later, they finish eating and they all head to the meeting room, where they all hear the sound of a vehicle entering the mansion.

“She must be here.” Lion said.

Steve walked out of the mansion.

A BMW car stopped in front of the mansion, Steve quickly opened the door, and a tall and slim lady wearing fancy clothes came out of the car, took off her sunshade and brushed her hair backwards. She was round Red’s age.

“So this is the house.” She stated, looking at Steve.

“Yes miss, you are highly welcome.” He beamed, drooling over her.

“What are you staring at? go and get my luggage from the car,” she stated authoritatively.

Steve opened the boot and took out her luggage one after the other.

She walked into the house.

“Is anyone home!! She yelled and all the gang members, including Red, walked towards her.

“I think you are the boss.” She said, looking at Lion.

“Yes I am, what’s your name miss.” He said with his head up high.

“My name is Allison. I am my Dad’s only girl.” She said

“I know, he told me,” Lion stated.

“So……who will be the one to be protecting me?” she asked

“Me and my gang members,” Lion replied.

“Huh, I want one person.” She said rudely.

“I will give you the chance to choose,” Lion stated, looking at the gangs.

“I chose that guy coming with my luggage,” She declared.

“You mean Steve?” Lion inquired.

“Yes, whatever his name is,” She said, rolling her eyes.

“Okay, so where is my room?” she asked.

“It’s upstairs. Steve showed her to her room. In the main time, everyone follows me to the meeting room.” He declared.

In the meeting room.

“I know many of you are confused. Who is that sophisticated lady? Well, she is “the bosses” Daughter Lion stated.

“Who is the boss?” Red inquired, raising a brow.

“He is our overall boss,” Lion declared.

“So, boss, why is she here?” Lucky inquired.

“A wicked and influential gangster is trying to kill her because The Boss Killed his sister,” Lion replied.

“Why did the boss kill his sister?” Red inquired.

“That is another mystery. The boss told me it was a car accident. He didn’t intentionally kill her, so he brought his daughter here for us to guide and protect her.” Lion replied.

“Boss, is there any work today?” Lucky asked.

“Yes, there is Steve will do the job. In the meantime, I will train Red, so everyone is dismissed.” He stated

And they shattered around the house.
