In Love With The Mafia

Chapter 2

Belle's POV

I walk back to our apartment slowly, lost in thought. Im crossing the street, when suddenly a car comes racing towards me. I am frozen and barely feel the impact of the car hitting me. Then I am on the ground, my head pounding. My whole body hurts, but I can still move. I hear fast footsteps and look up. The most gorgeous man I have ever seen looks down at me with a frown. He has curly dark brown hair and tan skin. He looks extremely tall and muscular, and I mean extremely tall, and I don't say that often about guys with my height. A few seconds pass and we just stare at each other.

Then suddenly I remember what happened when I feel a sharp pain in my leg. I wince touching it. The man's frown deepens. I kneels down and I look at his eyes. They're the most unusual eyes I have seen. Light green around the pupil, fading out into dark green. His next words snap me into reality. "Can you stand?" he asks still frowning. His voice is deep and husky, sending chills down my back. I shrug and attempt to stand. My leg almost buckles, but I don't give in. My head is spinning, so I hold onto the car for support. I stand there for a few seconds trying to collect myself, and start walking away. After a few steps I can barely keep going, my leg becoming more painful with every step I take. Tears streaming down my face, I continue limping. I refuse to show weakness. I just want to get home.

The guy who ran into me just stands there staring at me. I continue walking, but suddenly my leg gives out. I end up on the ground yet again. My vision blurs and I see the handsome man above me, leaning down and starts reaching for me. Out of instinct I cover my face, scared he is going to hit me or kick me. He frowns again and stops. Then he just picks me up like I weight nothing. I try to stop him by shoving his hands away, but he acts like he doesn't notice. I remember we're still in the university area. If Adrian sees me being carried by another guy, injured or not, he will kill me. I take a deep breath and say "please put me down, I'm fine, I really need to get home". He looks at me "where do you live, I will bring you home". I sigh and tell him my address. I guess it's no use struggling, I probably wouldn't have made it back alone anyways. He walks back to his car and puts me in. After 5 minutes we arrive at my apartment, and the handsome man opens the door and picks me up. We make our ways to the entrance, when I see Adrian. I tense up and quickly say "wait no please put me down". When he doesn't listen I start crying and beg him to stop and put me down. He stops but doesn't do what I asked. "Why?" he says, in that incredibly sexy voice. I shake my head to get rid of those thoughts. I'm about to respond when I hear the voice I dread. 

"Well well well, look what we have here".

Dominic's POV

I'm driving back home from a meeting. I'm mad. Extremely mad. I'm the leader of the Italian mafia, yet I was raised in New York. My name is Dominic De Luca, I am 21, yet already one of the most feared and powerful people in the world. I have just found out that my biggest rival, the gang called the Snakes ( I know it's a dumb name, a dumb name for a dumb gang) has stolen one of my deliveries. They got 200 new guns that were meant for my men. I am so lost in thought, that I don't notice someone crossing the street. At the last minute I slam on the breaks and slow down, but still hit the person. I quickly jump out of the car to find the most beautiful woman I have ever seen lying there staring up at me.

Her long blonde hair is everywhere and her crystal blue eyes hold pain. I don't know why but I feel and urge to go and hug her and never let her go. I frown and say "can you get up?" since I am weirdly concerned about her. The only people I really care about are my little sister and my best friend. She just shrugs and tries to stand up. I notice her wince when she puts pressure on her right leg and she holds onto my car as if dizzy. She stays for a few seconds then abruptly turns around and starts limping away. I know I should probably take her to the hospital, but she seems okay, so I let her try and walk. After a few steps she pauses and I almost think she is going to turn back and ask for help. But to my surprise she keeps walking. I am just about to go to her and ask her name, when her leg buckles and she falls to the ground. I quickly rush over to see her face scrunched up in pain. I lean down to pick her up and she quickly covers her face. I frown, wondering why she would do that. Did she think I was going to hit her? I mean I know I look scary with my height of 6'5" but not that scary. I make up my mind and pick her up. She  tenses and looks up at me with those gorgeous eyes I could drown in. I snap myself out of it and ask her where she lives. She tells me her address and I start walking towards my car. I don't know why I'm helping her, I would usually just leave after calling an ambulance or something.

After a 5 minute drive we arrive at her building. It's a pretty old looking place. I go around to her side and open up the door and pick her up. I start walking to the entrance when she stiffens and urgently says "wait no please put me down". I ignore her and continue walking. She starts crying and desperately begs me to stop. I look at her confused and ask her why. Before she can answer I hear a makes voice say "well well well, look what we have here". The girl in my arms immediately shrinks away from him with a terrified look on her face. For some reason I feel protective of her, but her next words shock me. "It's okay b-baby, h-he just ran into me with his c-car. I can't really w-walk so he o-offered to b-bring me home" she says trembling. Her, what I am assuming was her boyfriend says "babe we talked about this, you should call me if you ever need anything" he says using a caring tone. For some reason I feel jealous. "Come on Belle, I'll bring you to your apartment" he says impatiently. Belle, what a pretty name. I frown when she tries to get out of my arms. Relenting, I put her down, and her boyfriend comes to pick her up. "Adrian it's fine I can walk" she mutters, but he just glares at her, which makes her shut up. Belle turns to me "thank you for helping me, I have to go now". "I'm sorry for hitting you with my car" I say suddenly. She looks back and miss at me with a small smile. I watch her and her boyfriend walking away from me, my eyes trained on her as long as I could see her. Belle, we will meet again I promise you that.
