I woke up fresh the next morning. A shocking sight waited for me as soon as I opened my eyes. I was sleeping cuddled with Alejandro with my leg enveloping his lower torso.
After hesitantly agreeing to share the same bed I had made a barrier with pillows separating our sleeping areas. I had a habit if tossing and turning during nighttime and I had managed to cross over to the other side, it was really embarrassing and awkward situation.
I checked to see if he was awake or not and deftly slid my leg back. I went to the bathroom, with the intention of brushing my teeth and showering. I changed in the bathroom after shower. I wore floral skirt and matched it with a burgundy colour blouse. When I came outside, I was greeted by the sight of Alejandro sitting on the couch scrolling through his phone.
On seeing me he said “We have to leave soon for an important meeting. Please wear something formal, so that you look more like my personal assistant than girlfriend!”
He went quiet after realizing what he had said, clearly embarrassed he went to the bathroom to be done with his morning rituals. By the time he came out and wore his suit I was ready in a white pencil skirt and sea green blouse. I have done a simple makeup.

The same Rolls Royce from last night was waiting for us in the parking lot. Once inside, he whispered the address to the driver I asked him “Where are we going?”. “You will find out soon” he said. I sulked and pouted no reaction from Mr. Stone cold heart.
“Why does he have to be so weird sometimes?” I mused to myself. We reached our destination in thirty minutes. The door was opened by a handsome and tall man, who I would later come to know, was Leonardo Romano.
“Welcome to the Romano mansion, I hope you didn’t have any problem reaching here” he said. “Not at all, although the traffic gave us a little pain in the ass” Alejandro said and both of them burst out in laughter.
He led us to the study where two men were already gathered. I learnt later on observing them and from Alejandro who they were. Both belonged to the erstwhile mafia families of Italy the Romanos and Lombardi's.
The Romano and Lombardi family were the leading lights of the Italian Mafia, because of a unique characteristic. Generally mafia families in a country or town squabble amongst each other for the bigger prize, but not here in Rome. The Lombardis and Romanos have been friends for many years and the younger generation literally grew up together and was like family, leaving no room for animosity of any kind.
Back in the study Alejandro confidently sat on the sofa and I followed suit, confused by my surroundings. Lorenzo spoke in Italian “Abbiamo trovato le tue spedizioni di droga in Italia puoi spiegarlo per favore? (We found your drug shipments in Italy, can you explain that please?)
Alejandro replied “I have no idea, because I cannot control how my drugs are distributed in a local territory after it leaves the Mexican shores.” “Well then make sure your drugs don’t reach at all, they have ruined my brother’s life” Lorenzo said angrily.
