Devil's vow✔️[ Mafiaso Series #1]

Shadow

Warm palms touched her cheeks, tendrils of hair being removed from her forehead as he touched the creamy skin to check for fever. So cold, her entire body was frozen making the man stand up and wrap another layer of fur blanket onto her delicate frame and lit the fireplace to spread warmth to the room.

"So you also endure hmm?" He mumbled to himself asking a question with his own conscience that why was he like this, he could have simply opened the door and called her good-for-nothing bodyguards to take her away but he could not, not when he knew his blood was boiling because of them.

What if it was not him who was inside but someone else, this beautiful fairy was passed out like light and had no energy to even recognize what was happening to her, this arena was Russian mafia's lair and god knows what kind of guests were invited so how come those bastards did not even checked the room before letting her enter.

Fuck it

Ajax was so raged that he felt at this moment it would be better to drag those impudent beings out to be beheaded.

"Tyler, Room no 101, two men are standing outside my chambers, drag them out." The man on the other end was his first ally and right hand man, the don of Bulgarian mafia clan Tyler Kingsman. The fact that the most tedious and dangerous tasks were to be managed by him yet when Ajax told him to perform such meagre things via a personal call, it made the mafia underdog astound.

"What would the sire want me to do?"

"Check which agency's bodyguards they are and then ruin them all." Tyler blinked in astonishment before replying in affirmation.

Moments passed and the emperor realized he should not be so angry to begin with, that this was a miracle for him. He was in Russia to take away Valace Storm's beloved niece, wasn't this a golden opportunity to kidnap her now that she had herself walked into his place.

Maybe it was but he had no audacity when she looked so fragile, whimpering into her sleep a few times. Almond shaped eyes framed by dewed long lashes kissing the cheekbones, skin glimmering as if golden dust was sprinkled and a flower petal was rubbed onto those pretty lips, then there was an intoxicating aroma of faint rose, it smelled so much like her own scent..was she even a human or a descendant of a fairy. Even her hair locks were adorable, fighting gently for which one would remain tangled and which one would break free from the chocolate kissed head, they danced like a pair in love out of her messy bun that was crushed against the pillow that Ajax had adjusted her head to.

When he could not see her hair like that any longer, masculine fingers threaded through her head and unknotted the bun.....she was so soft. Just like a ball of cotton or maybe a bundle of small little could trapped in a glass jar. He forced his hand to stop massaging her head, moments passed and again those fingers drew circles on her scalp and resumed touching the silky strands untangling it and combing the locks into their place.

As soon as her hair was arranged he ruffled her head again, he wished she was awake at this time so he could pat her head and see a reaction out of it, would she be shy or bite of his hand.

Both would be interesting

When he saw her that day in the video and today in the ceremony she was a tigress yet right at this everlasting second she was like a tiny kitten.

An hour passed with Ajax simply going through the documents and signing them after reading them completely, he sat on the chair beside the bed, covering Alaina with the blanket numerous times that she threw away from her body and later start shivering from cold. He was startled for the first few times thinking that she might wake up yet it was all a tantrum thrown in unconsciousness.

The mafia emperor looked at the documents of SIERGA that Alaina today proposed a deal with and could not help but smile again.

"Sweetheart you chose a good deal for yourself, I made SIERGA myself when I was sixteen, this software is not as simple as it looked and will make you powerful enough to dominate the entire industry." Ajax took as if he was talking to her without expecting any answers in return.

It has been half an year of investigation on her and Ajax could not understand that how was she any different than him. In this world there were many instances that were named as coincidence yet majorly all of them were man-made. Russian mafia don Victor told him that Maximus Storm, Alaina's father was lucky to be seated on the throne till now since Valace wished for him to die then was it simply fate as he said?

No, it must be more, this woman was smart enough to go after his creation which for other people only looked like a software for getting information, this was much more, lethal and dangerous when it came to its working which meant she understood the backbone behind the clans, all the conspiracies and above all collecting secrets to have an edge over others.

How was it possible for Maximus Storm to be victorious unless someone was helping him behind the scenes and if that was possible then how come Alaina not know about Valace Storm's workings.

As if struck by a lightning the mafia don of five nations decided that this was not as simple as it looks even if this was all this imaginary thinking he wanted to be sure.

"Let me follow you for a while princess, let me be your shadow then."
