The Mafia’s Abused Queen

Uninvited

Alexander’s POV

I glanced at her as she walked into my sister’s company, I didn’t intend on following her but when I saw her inside the cab this morning I just had to. I couldn’t stop myself, I gave haven’t been able to stop thinking about her since morning, it’s like she is on my mind 24/7 not that I mind. I smiled as I watched her enter the building. I wish I could follow her but I have no business with Rose, we only spoke when it’s business related and all business-related issues have been taken care of and I know better than anyone than to walk into Rose’s office without a valid reason.

I’m avoiding as much drama as possible from her and anyone.

I had a smile on my face when I got into my office, I haven’t been this happy for a while, though I know that I smiled every day but that was just because I didn’t want to give the wrong impression to anyone that I was mad at them but today it was genuine happiness, I was happy with everything probably everyone and it’s because of one girl.

Emma.

Last night, I wanted to kiss her but I had to stop myself, I know for a fact she won’t hesitate to slap me if I had Mia on her lips so I stopped myself from doing that and kissed her on her cheek instead, I noticed how her cheek heated up when I did, it’s good to know I have that effect on her.

It’s crazy how you meet someone and all of a sudden. You start to think about that person, I don’t know if I like Emma or it’s just lust but I know I would make sure to find out what it is, whatever this feeling is, I know it won’t go away easily.

“What’s making you f*****g smile so much?.” I heard a voice breaking me out of my thoughts.

I didn’t even realize I have been staring at my paperwork and I didn’t realize this fucker came in.

“You have been smiling for five minutes.”

“What’s your point?.” I asked, I don’t need him asking questions to which I don’t know the answers.

“There is no need to be sassy Alex.”

“What do you want?.” I asked, this bickering was our way of relating, and he enjoyed it as much as I did.

“Shut up fucker.” He said, I stared at him with a serious face, and he did the same then we busted into laughter.

Marco Ricci, one of the sons of Mr.Ricci, my brother, and with whom I only love and relate within the whole family. I was closer to Marco than anyone in the family, he has his own company which he handled, and it was all across the city.

“So what have you been doing?.” I asked.

“Work, work...I’m also preparing for that stupid charity function.”

At the charity function, every year we have to organize a charity event which was handled by me since I lead the biggest company of the Ricci family, I almost forgot about the charity event.

“I wish we could cancel it,” I said to Marco.

It was always boring and annoying, pretending to like everyone, meeting the whole family, and pretending we can stand the existence of each other when in reality we don’t even bother to ask about one another.

“Have you spoken to any of them?” Marco asked.

“Not since the last event we held.” I simply said staring back at my work.

“I did send each one of them a message but I haven’t heard back from them,” Marco said, Marco has always tried to bond with them, I did try to but I gave up a year ago, they showed me all my efforts would go down the drain and it won’t work, I didn’t have anything against them well maybe I did but I try to overlook because they are family and no matter what they are blood.

“You know you can keep trying, maybe you will break their walls,” I said to Marco, which I knew it is clearly a lie, they are monsters and they don’t love anyone apart from money.

It wasn’t always like this, there was a time when we lived together in the same house, where we couldn’t live without talking to each other, where I always had my sister’s back and they had mine but it all changed one night, our whole life got destroyed and now we are what we are today, we hate each other but to the world, we are the perfect family.

After work, I decided to go back home Marco left a long time ago because he had an important meeting, but he promised to come over later and maybe spend the night.

I got to my warehouse, this was a part of me that was different, to the normal world I’m just a business man but to the underworld I’m feared, I’m not even the same person as I am here.

“Bring him.” I said to one of my men.

I sat in the empty room as the dragged a man into the room, his arms filled with blood. I took of the handkerchief from his mouth.

“So are you ready to talk?.” I asked.

The man whimpered on the floor. I took out my kit from my jacket, it was a small purse with the sharpest knife.

“Let’s see how long this will take.” I said to him.

My knife ran through his chin down to his chest, his screams filled my ears.

“Will you f*****g speak?.” I yelled to him.

The torture continued for two more minutes before he decided to speak, we found this man lurking around my office and we had to find out what he is planning.

“You don’t know the f*****g man that sent you to watch me.” I yelled.

“I don’t, he covered his face, he paid me enough so I didn’t bother asking.” He whimpered, I let out a hiss and shot him.

Fucking asshole.

“Clean the mess.” I said to my men.

I was in my car when my mind wanders off to her, I miss her f**k I feel like I can’t sleep without seeing her, this is unhealthy for me, I found myself driving to her house.

What I’m I going to tell her? Why did I come? I just killed a man and I’m f*****g nervous to speak to a lady, it’s embarrassing.

I stood in front of her door and pressed the buzzer and after a minute the door opened to reveal a man, he stared at me as if I came from another planet.

She lives with a man, that’s her roommate.

“I’m looking for Emma.” I simply said.

“She hasn’t come back from work but you can wait for her.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Her roommate let me in, he offered me to sit on their couch and offered me water.

“So you live with Emma,” I asked trying to confirm.

“Yes.” He replied she lives with a guy, are they dating, does he like her, does she like him?

Fuck, I need to stop thinking about kinds of stuff like this.

“Wait wait wait, I’m not dating Emma. She is like my sister.” Her roommate replied as if he was reading my mind.

“Oh, that’s good.” I found myself saying.

I found out his name is Josh, he seemed nice, he even helped in texting Emma and he informed me she would be here soon.

Hope she doesn’t murder me for coming uninvited.
