Love And War | a mafia story

12

M i k e   C o r b e n t

It's been a few days since what happened at Kate's.
I kept thinking about the kiss, smiling and being happy like an idiot.

I opened my computer and looked trough my mails, one of my guys knocked and walked in with a letter

Oh god not this again

I opened the letter and started get angry

___________________________________

Dear Mike

How have you been? You probably thought I was dead? Didn't you?

Guess I'm not, how are things with the love of your life going? Did anything happen yet?

Did she tell you she tried to kill me, oh well she did but not the real me.

Better luck next time

I took the letter and drove towards Kate's, after about 20-25 minutes I got to her house and knocked

On of the maids opened up and let me in.
I went to her office and walked in, she was in a meeting with the French mafia.

"Mike?!" She raised her voice

"I'm sorry, I uhm I'll wait out"

She furrowed her eyebrows and shook her head.
I waited for 10 minutes or something until she walked out of her office with the French mafia don.

I followed her in and showed the letter, she read it and slammed her hand on the table and sat back.
My eyes widened at her reaction.

She was tapping her finger on her desk and I saw the fury in her eyes.
She stood up and started pacing through the room.

I got up as well and grabbed her shoulders

"Calm down"

"How?"
"How can I calm down when this son of a bitch is still alive?!"

I looked at her neck and suddenly saw a snake loosely wrapped around her neck.

I quickly took a step back with a scared face.
She started laughing at my reactions

"Still scared?" She said stepping closer

I walked back until I stood against the wall

She got closer and the snake was sissing.

"Relax, blaze is harmless, if it was Ghosh you would've dead, and ka would be around your neck"

"You have to many snakes"

"What? No I don't, they're only grumpy when they're hungry, except ghost, he's alway grumpy" she said laughing

Her smile quickly dropped, thinking about our stalker.

I grabbed her cheek and was about to kiss her but felt something on my arm.

I looked and saw the snake wrapping around my arm

"Awww she likes you" she said with puppy eyes.

"G-get this o-of off me"
I said shaking my arm

"Relax, you'll scare or hurt her"

"Hurt her? How in the hell would I hurt her?"

"She's pregnant!" She said trying to get the snake away

"Oh no I uh sorry I didn't mean to hurt her" I said panicking

"Don't worry" she said in a comforting voice
