03. My beloved mafia boss (DeanPharm)

Summary: Sometimes the red thread connects you to a mafia boss and you still fall in love with him.

Soulmate stories are endearing in novels, movies and series. Try to get away with them in real life having nightmares about your fated love from past lives and you'll be driven insane easily. That is what really happened to Dean. He was a sweet kid, even though a little introvert, the oldest of 3 kids from the same house. In general, a healthy family, but as his parents were away most of the time due to their job requirements, the poor guy had no one to trust while dealing with that kind of emotions and that got him overwhelmed. 

He went through a search for the boy he dreamed about, but just found misery and pain. Trying to forget this, he lost himself in other people's lips and bodies. One thing led to another and he ended up in a gang. In a short time he was kinda adopted by the mafia boss and became his successor. Soon after the man retired due to Police confrontation resulting in his death, leaving the highest spot to be occupied by Dean.

Dean's cold demeanor made him feared among the unlawful citizens and he soon gained one of the worst reputations ever. He was a dropout from high school, but life taught him better and he was a quite mischievous human being. No one would betray him for too long or without facing the consequences.

To his few acquaintances, his personality was getting darker and darker as the days passed and they were afraid that at some point their boss would lose control over himself. But destiny has funny ways to work and that was when everything changed in the cozy mafia clan.

There was a grocery store owner in debt with Dean making it hard for his men to charge him the money. It wasn't usual for the boss to get involved with such a minor issue, since their protocol in this type of situation was to kill the debtor and assume their business as their own, but Dean decided to check it personally. 

The mafia boss entered the little grocery store accompanied by 3 of his men and spotted a few customers inside.

"All of you: OUT!", he demanded, quickly being obeyed. Everyone on that side of the town knew all too well they shouldn't mess with his gang.

"Big D! You're here!", the store owner was startled by his unusual visitor.

"Hello, Mr. Aoi! It's nice to see that you still can remember me! I tend to get annoyed when people don't pay what they should and decided to check it myself", Dean smirked at the man.

"Big D, sir! I can explain! I've already told your men that my wife is still in the hospital and my daughter is studying at the Uni. My income isn't enough to pay the bills with meds and tuition fees. Also, the business had been affected by the economic problems, but I swear I'm gonna pay you as soon as possible!", the man was sweating hard and stuttering a lot, his hands pressed against each other, begging for the boss' mercy.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Aoi, that's not how business works, you know? If I decide to give you more time to pay your debt, the others will also ask for this kind of treatment and my poor wallet is going to suffer the consequences", Dean shrugged and the movement made his thick necklace and bracelets tinkle.

"Sir, please! Big D, I beg you--", the man kneeled before Dean and kissed his boots, but the boss kicked him and, annoyed by the act, grabbed a gun on his belt, shooting on the ceiling.

"Oh my God!", a soft voice screamed, making everyone look at the person who suddenly popped up from the middle of the store.

A tiny man was crotched on the floor with his hands covering his ears, like that was enough to protect them, while crying and shaking hard.
