SPEED DATING WITH A MAFIA KING

BONUS CHAPTER III

I woke up to the smell of coffee and bacon. My heart fluttered with me biting my lower lip just early in the morning because I really loved Azrail’s cooking. He was so good dad always wanted to steal him to the kitchen so they could cook together.

“ Morning future husband.” I greeted, rubbing my eyes and sitting up with my eyes falling on Azrail who only wore a pair of shorts. My face just went all warm and red.

“ Morning future wife, here is breakfast. How did you sleep?” He asked as I stretched.

“ I slept well my love, you?” I asked with him nodding his head back. I stood on my knees, crawling onto him as he sat at the edge of the bed, typing on his phone, the breakfast on the side table.

My arms were wrapped around his shoulders, kissing his neck, then his face.

“ I love you.” I said with Azrail locking his phone and setting it aside before turning and staring at me. Soon, our lips were locking, even though I had not brushed my teeth as of then but we did not mind.

“ I love you back,” he said, with him pushing me on the bed where I fell giggling.

“ I brought something for you.” He said as I grinned.

“ What is it?” I asked like a five-year-old. These little gifts were always the best. When he travelled, he always came back with something for me and it just drove me crazy because it showed that he had been thinking of me at some point if not throughout the trip.

Azrail slipped from the bed, walking to the closet. I took it as a chance to rush to the bathroom. I peed then brushed my teeth to walk back and find him already back on the bed, drinking his coffee.

My eyes ran to see a beautiful box and I could not help but jump and clasp my hands in excitement. I wanted to dance. I picked the box up then straddled on Azrail.

“ Thank you baby, I appreciate these gifts, I love gifts.” I said out, and because he travelled frequently, I was spoiled nearly every week with such.

My eyes stared at the box with sore eyes, realizing it was a perfume and one of the most expensive brands, but what had me nearly in pieces were the words written, sure specially made for me.

I love you, my Masha.

“ Thank you so much Azrail.” I cried out, already pressing the box to my chest. I would treasure it forever. My teeth were all out in glee. I kissed him then pulled back, unpacking the perfume and it was stunning. The smell was divine as I sniffed the nozzle only to nearly cry again seeing that the bottle itself had the same message as on the box, specially made for me.

He always did these sentimental gifts that meant the world to me.

“ I will love you to death and even after that.” I said out, taking his coffee and setting it aside because it was time I gave a proper thanks.

We had s*x all over the room then had breakfast before taking a shower and having more s*x. We had nothing else to do. We would head out to my parent’s house in a few hours but we did not have to pack since we already had a full closet at my parent’s house thus we were sorted.

I wore fancy nice jeans even though I would just be in the car but I wanted to look good. I pulled over a nice thick cotton round neck t-shirt. Sneakers were pulled on along with a jacket, pulling it over my shoulders.

“ My love, don’t you want to match clothes with me, don’t you want us to be that kind of couple?” I asked turning around. Azrail was wearing his smart casual black pants with a white round neck t-shirt. He looked so good though, me licking my lips.

“ No.” He said back, shaking his head vigorously as I laughed out loud.

I folded my arms on my chest, sulking.

“ You don’t want to match clothes with me?” I asked in my sulking tone.

“ No.” He shot back as I laughed.

“ You look so good though.” I said walking to him.

His body turned to stare at me only to walk and meet me half way.

“ And so do you.” He said back with me blushing.

“ Thank you my love,” I blushed, my arms wrapping around him. I snuggled into his chest then just stayed there only to begin moving my feet. He went with it, just slow dancing to utter silence.

“ What are we doing?”

“ We are being romantic my love.” I said back to him as he chuckled but said nothing. He just held me, us peacefully dancing until he pulled me from his chest only to spin me around as I laughed out loud. Okay, we were seriously doing this.

I came back to his chest, us slow dancing.

“ Free style babe.” I said out as I let go of him, pumping my body over and over only to have my world explode as he burst out laughing, like full on laughing. It was a rare sight, me stopping to capture it in my head only to continue free-styling. I moved to grab his hands, us dancing crazy. He was so bad I was laughing at him until I cried but he gave me his killer eye and I stopped laughing.

My teeth were clenched together to hold the laugh and soon he brought me to his arms. He picked me up, my legs folded back in the air. His lips came on mine as we span around and I felt as if I was flying.

It was true love, cupping his face after and just smiling as I stared at him because he sent me to heaven and back. We kissed again before he lowered me down and dragged me to help him finish dressing up. I picked sneakers and literally forced him to wear them. He was complaining but the funny part is that he was complaining while wearing the white sneakers, finally matching with me. I picked a black leather jacket for him. It was cold outside but the car would be warm. We then picked watches.

He did not like me dressing him, having me laugh out loud.

We packed a small bag filled with our gadgets and some of his watches, my perfume then we were on our way. Azrail would be driving. The security team was dismissed for the holidays. Samuel was going on a vacation with one of the girls Azrail had been talking to at that mafia match up party. They really seemed to be hitting it off and I was happy for Samuel.

Hearing that Azrail could actually drive was a shocker. I had brought some snacks, me on the radio, blasting some goofy songs out loud as he shook his head over and over. I sang out loud, munching my snacks and being a pain in his ass. The road trip was just the best. I danced all the way through until Azrail chuckled and relaxed into his seat. I lowered the music, us talking about anything and everything except for business of course.

I had accepted Azrail’s offer and worked for him. I overlooked his legal businesses since he was overwhelmed by the mafia side and it was large at that point. I was good at my job too and I also helped out at my family’s business now and again while Azrail’s person continued accumulating those degrees for me to use one day if they asked what my qualifications actually were.

Azrail held out his hand for me and I could not help but slide mine over, clenching his hand and feeling so complete. My eyes stayed on him with him turning to stare at me with such love and warmth. I had everything when I had him and my family, bringing his hand up to kiss it. A love song played and I found myself singing out, singing it out to him because every love song suddenly reminded me of him, all dedicated to him.

He smiled, squeezing my hand tighter with me squeezing his tighter too.

The hours trickled faster with us soon driving through my parent’s drive-way. We parked the car in the garage to take our bag and make our way in our second home. Our hands were still laced, sure that nothing but chaos was happening inside the house. The presents we had bought for everyone had already been sent to the house since mom had wanted to decorate for Christmas and boxing day in time.

I opened the door, walking in, the house so warm, smelling so good with chatter already loud in the house.

“ Hello!” I shot out with feet heard and soon we were being engulfed by mom. She hugged me then Azrail, dragging us to the kitchen where everyone was. The kitchen was hot, my dad cooking.

“ Hey guys, you are late!” Dad said out with me quickly pointing at Azrail as the whole room laughed.

“ Never, you are the culprit Masha.” Dad mocked back with me laughing.

“ I need my chef next to me.”

“ But dad, I thought I was your chef, why are you being a traitor?” I cried out as I stomped to him.

“ Jealousy doesn’t suit you child.” I was engulfed in warm arms, squashed so tight. Azrail was next, the hug not awkward at all no matter how timid Azrail was.

“ I have been waiting on both of you, you know the other members of the family have been tainted by your mother’s skill when it comes to cooking.” Dad said with me laughing out. I moved over and hugged Becca so tight as we both laughed. She and Ivan stayed with mom and dad, having no intentions of moving out soon which was great since the house was always just bursting with life and love.

“ Hi my love, you look so good.” I said to her as she blushed and giggled.

“ Masha, stop hitting on me.” She said back with all of us laughing out.

“ I wouldn’t want to break Ivan’s heart. The poor man would die alone without you.” I said back as Ivan pulled at my ears having me to jump and apologize while laughing all at once.

“ Azrail, you are letting him do this to me?” I cried out with Azrail chuckling and holding his hands up.

“ I am not getting involved love.” He said out with my mouth left agape, traitor.

“ Good one son,” Dad said patting Azrail with Azrail soon wearing an apron. Him in an apron was just deliciousness.

I fought a bit with Ivan then we hugged and hashed it out.

The roles in the house had changed a bit.

Dad and Azrail cooked with me bumped to assistant chef of them two. Ivan did music. Mom sat on the counter and kept the chatter going while Becca helped me chop then kept the drinks coming. It was perfect. Wine was passed over, us talking none stop and laughing. We made so much noise you would think there was a whole army in the kitchen. The music was just amazing, dancing all through with everyone around. I went to pull Azrail from my dad who was stealing him from me. We danced a little then Becca stole me away, us shaking what our mama gave us. Dad joined in our twerking session and we laughed so hard I thought I would die.

Mom hopped in too and it turned s£xual, leaving us all just red and trying so hard not to laugh but it was impossible.

By the time lunch hit, we were just so high with laughter, a bit tipsy and so hungry. The lunch was just so delicious. We sat there for hours, talking and arguing with laughter never falling short. It was just so beautiful. I asked the family if they were cool to ditch the Bali trip and come to New Zealand instead. Azrail had a beautiful estate there where we would get married and New Zealand was just so beautiful, it would still be an amazing vacation for us all.

Everyone was so happy, and setting it in stone that in just three days I would be married. No one else mattered, the only people needed, those on that table. Azrail pulled me closed as his arms was on my shoulders. He placed a kiss on my forehead as my arms hugged his waist. My head tipped up with him staring down at me.

“ I love you.” I whispered out.

“ I love you too.” He mouthed back with us kissing, a baby kiss of course since my parents were there but as we looked up, all eyes were on us. I felt so shy, my head bending with them staring at us in nothing but happiness and joy.

My dad cleared his throat while standing up, holding a glass in hand.

“ It has been the wildest two years of our lives as a family. I just want to say thank you all for the last two years. We have made it through stronger than ever. Let us raise a glass to family.” Dad said out with me picking up my glass like everyone else.

“ To family.” We all said at once. I turned around to stare at Azrail.

“ To family.” I said again with him smiling with us drinking our wine. I set my glass down, my arms going around him.

“ Time to dance.” Mom said out as we giggled. The sun was going over the horizon, the lights flickering on.

The music was turned up, us all standing to the living room where we began dancing and laughing as the night drifted away.

It had started in tears, heart break, betrayal, loss and devastation yet it was ending with love, happiness, warmth, and family.

THE END.

It has been one and a half year writing in this platform and only you guys just made this all magical for me. Thank you so much for reading, for commenting, for loving and even reaching out to me when I was breaking down. I seriously nearly broke apart because of this platform, but I made it through. I love you all so much and this will be the last book I will write here. I can not write anywhere else for the next year and a half but when my contract is over, I will self-publish and also find a good platform to publish my new work. I will miss you all so much. If you want to reach out, all my socials are on my bio but basically, my username is temanguby through all other socials and platforms. I also have other mafia free books on w*****d (temanguby) but be warned, I wrote them at a very young age, they are unedited and brutal.

The last three books I wrote here will be left free as my gift to you all but if they go on pay to read, don’t be shocked, there is nothing I can do.

I love you all and may you all know nothing but happiness as you move forward with your lives.

Lots of love.
