Mafia series: Innocence

Chapter 12

Brielle's POV

I don't think I will ever be able to get use to all this fancy rich stuff. The restaurant that me and Lorenzo are at right now with his friends it is extremely fancy which must mean it costs alot.

And everything else that I'm getting now or the places I'm going completely makes me feel out of place, I'm not made for this life I'm an outsider it seems.

"Hello old friend." A man greets Lorenzo as we take our seats at the table.

The man has brown hair that is wavy but not a messy kind a really well kept wavy, he has a stubble that adds feature to his face.

The woman sitting next to him has jet back hair and her makeup is done extremely well, unlike my usual makeup hers was very upfront, and next to her sat a little boy who looks just like her.

"Hello Henry." Lorenzo says greeting back.

By the way they are already acting around each other you can tell that they are close friends, by the sound of their conversation it seems like it has been a while since they've seen each other.

"It's been a minute hasn't it?" Henry says while making eye contact with me.

"And you must be the lucky bride." He looks at me with a smile before pulling out his hand for me to shake.

"Henry Carter."

"Brielle Konners." I say causing him to raise his eyebrows.

"Enzo I think if you want this plan to work your gonna have to let her get use to having your last name." He tells Lorenzo before taking a sip of his wine.

"Let her be." The woman said while hitting Henry on his arm.

"I'm Maya this one's wife." She says while pointing towards her husband.

"And this is our son Ben." I look over to the little boy to see that he is a little shy because he was hiding under his mother's arm.

"Hi." I wave to him trying to let him know that I'm not a threat.

"Don't worry he's like that with everyone." Maya explains while rubbing Ben's hair.

After a little while our orders where taken and our food was place on the table.

"So Brielle how are you liking the new life style?" Henry asked while wiping his mouth with his napkin.

"It's taking some time for me to adjust to it but I think I'm getting there."

I wasn't lying I'm slowly getting used to the fact of being married to the Italian mafia Don even if it's a not really marriage.

I don't think I could be able to know what kind of things they do when their at the base, even though I saw a little bit of it that night in the alley.

"Well your taking it better than others would." He says causing me to raise my eyebrows.

I mean it's not easy to come to terms with being involved with the mafia unless you were born into it.

"She's doing well considering the circumstances." Lorenzo said causing me to look at him in surprise.

We really haven't been talking that much these last few days since the wedding and I'm not sure why. But it was nice to at least hear that he knows I'm trying.

After the dinner me and Lorenzo made our way back to the house, the car ride was quiet but not the awkward kind of silence we have been having the last few days.

Once we got in the house I decided to head up to my room because I knew that Lorenzo would either be in his father's office or at his base.

But once I get up the stairs I stop at the top because I see Greyson come out of Rosa's room.

Shirtless?

From the looks of it he has scratches on his back.

Oh my god!

THEY HAD SEX.

And by the way Greyson knows exactly how to sneak out makes it obvious they have been hooking up for a while now.

Buts it not my place to say anything or to have an opinion. After I make sure Greyson has left and that he didn't see me I make my way to my room.

I get into my room and shut the door as I make my way to my bed and plop down on it.

It's weird that in only a week of knowing Lorenzo and a few days of being married to him I feel more safe here with him and his family then I did with James in the 5 years I known him.

I know that this is only a year but I just hope that after this year I can find a way to still be stable with myself without the help of Lorenzo or his family.

I might even miss this place a bit.
