Our Little Secret

Roman (2)

I'm sitting at the dinner family eating my food in silence. All this looking for a bride shit has been really draining. My parents have been putting so much pressure on me for it but I know they just want the best for me.

"Roman." My father says trying to get my attention.

My head shoots up to look at him and he continues.

"Just an hour ago, that mafia i was telling you about just the other day, the leader says he has someone you should meet. They are going to be staying here for a few days. You are to be on your best behavior. Is that understood?" My father glares at me.

I look to my mother. He face is lit up. I nod my head and continue to eat. My mother starts to talk.

"Please give this woman a chance. She could be the one." My mother smiles and reaches for my hand. As she touches my hand I smile back.

I finish up eating and excuse myself from the table. I head to my room and I make sure to lock my door so no one tries to come in.

I remember my father telling me about this mafia the other day. I don't remember a lot but I do remember the leader. Kade. He is a very powerful man and he doesn't take shit from anyone. I couldn't believe he would be coming here.

I open my laptop to see that I have an email. It's a group email with Kade, my parents and me. I read the way Kade writes. He's not even talking but still it sounds so sexy. I push away those thoughts as fast as I can. I need to be professional about this. I could be meeting my wife.

I decide to email him separately. I get ready to start typing but no words come to my mind. Anything I say will sound corny. So, I just ask him a question.

"Hello Kade. I am very pleased to hear you have someone for me to meet. Is there anything I can do to make your stay better? Please let me know and I would be happy to do it. Again thank you."

I mindlessly hit send. I immediately regret it. I slam the screen down. I sit there for a second questioning myself for a minute. What kind of idiot does that. I'm never going to be able to show my face to him. Kade Harris. The Harris mafia. God that name is so sexy...

I hear my door. It's my mother trying to get in. I quickly get up and open my door for her. She steps in and and goes to sit on my bed. I join her.

"You know we're just trying to do what's best for you." She says very softly.

I look at her with a warm smile.

"I know mother. I will make you guys proud." I respond.

My mothers face looks very happy. She gets up and kisses my head and leaves. I get up and shut the door behind her and i go back to my computer. I see that Kade had responded to me.

"Holy shit" I say aloud.

I quickly open it and read.

"Hello Roman. Thank you i do appreciate that. I would just say make sure to keep Jess comfortable. She is a very lovely woman and I don't want her to get hurt. I would appreciate it if you could allow my assistant Jason to join. If that's okay of course. Have a nice night."

I cant believe he responded. I open Instagram and I immediately look up Kade Harris. Holy fuck. He's even hotter than he sounds. He has a public account and I start looking at all of his posts. All the guns, workout pictures, him and his assistant, it's turning me on. Until I accidentally like his most recent post.

Shit. What the hell was I thinking. I'm such an idiot. I shut my laptop and decide to go ask my father about Kades question. I start to walk downstairs slowly. I finally reach the bottom and I walk into my father office. He looks very tense. I walk in and his head shoots up.

"What is it Roman?"

I swallow and clear my throat.

"I emailed Kade asking him if I could do anything to make his stay batter and he asked if he could bring his assistant. I just wanted to check with you."

I could tell my father was stressing. He sighs as he runs his hands through his hair.

"That should be fine. You should go to sleep. You have a big day tomorrow."

I nod my head and walk about. I run up the stairs eager to respond to Kade. I tell him it should be fine to bring Jason and I turn off my computer. I brush my teeth and dress into my shorts and my shirt. I get under my covers and check my phone once more before I shut my eyes. I notice Kade requested to follow me. I instantly panic. Would it be professional to accept it?

I didn't care. I accepted it and followed him back. The thought of him looking at my posts makes me go all tingly. God I cannot wait to meet Kade. And Jess of course. I shut my eyes as i drift off into sleeping.
