Stolen by the mafia king

Chapter five

“Are you okay Bella?” Beth asked

“I just need to sleep.” I breathed out. “I didn’t get much sleep last night.”

“What’s wrong? Is it Ethan?.”

“Ethan is fine.” I whispered so low because I was scared they will know of him, I am more worried they would figure out who he is and they will hurt him, I didn’t want to tell her what happened

She didn’t deserve to be pulled into any of this.

“I know what will help?.” Beth smiled as she handed me over a glass of wine, I didn’t budge as I took it, I am the maid of honor after all and I wanted to look good for her, she has been planing this for a long time

It took about four hours to get Beth ready and by the time we were done, she looked breathtaking, I was able to forget about what happened because of the effect of the wine

“I think I am going to cry.” Beth smiled

“He is going to mind his mind when he sees you.” I stated and she smiled

There I was watching my best friend and ex boyfriend placing the ring on each other’s finger, they looked happy especially him Cole, whisk made me wonder if they always liked each other.

When I got together with Cole, it was the greatest we dated for a while, a year to be precise and then it got bad, I guess our differences got between us and after a year. We broke up, two months later he got together with Beth.

I didn’t feel sad, I wanted her to be happy and he made her happy and at least she found someone else to be with.

Maybe it made me mad because my eyes bubbled with tears as I stared at them when I tried to push back the tears that threatened to fall against my cheek and my breath hitches

I found myself heading toward the other side of the house, everyone looked happy as if I didn’t date him first.

“Are you okay Bella?.” I heard a voice from behind, I didn’t have to turn to realise who it was.

Cole.

“Just had a rough night.” I smiled when I headed back into the place, I don’t think it would be a good idea to see us both alone together.

The engagement party was a key to me maybe because I keep drinking, I could not stop, the anger and grief of hurting someone and then watching Beth and Cole so happy.

I knew after five f*****g hours I have to leave so I did, my legs wobbled against the floor, I felt a tap of rain touch my body when I found myself in a garden, settled on a bench.

“What does this keep happening to me?.” I breathed out, as I stared at the sky, the moment another breath falls off my lips, rain rushed out of the sky and fell against my body.

“You know you are going to get sick.” I heard a voice form behind.

“It’s you, are you here to force me to sit through another horrible night.” I asked when Daniel shakes his head.

He stayed with me yesterday night and I never once found out who he worked for? Or how he knows where I lived?.

“Get up Bella, the boss wants to see you.” Daniel said and a wave of shiver runs down my spine.

His boss.

“I don’t have money to offer him and I did what I had to do protect myself.”

“I didn’t ask, get up.” He said again. I can’t argue and I can’t run.

When I looked around, I saw two black cars and I knew that even if I wants to run, I didn’t have a place to run to, they will find me

“Is he going to kill me?.” I asked

“That depends on what you say to him? If I were you, I would keep my gaze down at all time when speaking to him, he is not so great when it comes to disrespect and you may want to do better at convincing him you didn’t let his guard to die .” He stated and I nodded

He didn’t have to explain it further, I did understand what he was trying to say.

Maybe I should fight, my eyes closed for a second and the thought of running filled my mind, if I run, I could make it to the best black but I can’t hide but what if they hurt Beth instead, they do know why I am coming form?

“Let’s go.” I breathed out

I have to do this for Ethan and for Beth, to keep him far away form all of this.

Ever moment fele antagonizing, the warm face of my little brother Ethan filled my mind, how happy he would be when he sees me again, how excited he would be when he finds out I have been saving up to get him the gift that he always desired.

I shrugged off the thoughts when the car came to a halt, I was not scared maybe because I knew I have been thought worse and I realized that they can’t do anything worse.

“Come with me, a tip for the day. You don’t speak unless he asks you to Bella, you seem good and I believe you when you say you didn’t kill him because you wanted to but what I think doesn’t matter Bella.” Daniel said and I nodded

A breath falls out of my lips when we headed further in, the mansion itself was covered in beautiful items and my eyes widened as it glanced around.

“Won’t you rather prefer if I am dead? You did make it look like you wanted me dead.” I whispered and a chuckle escaped his lips.

“If you think I want you dead then you have not met him before because this mere presence is death. You killed one of his own Bella and now he is interested.” Daniel stated and a shiver runs down my spine
