On the previous chapter...

"I won't sit there and watch some whores". I glare at him. "I could use that time for other useful things".

"As? Jerking off on some gay porn?" Silvio jokes.

"How he is going to kidnap the girl". Seraphina joins.

"There is no need for kidnapping". I state. "That girl will fall for me like a stupid naive little girl".
Silvio raises her eyebrows. "We will see about that".

"Is that a challenge mrs Costello?" I taunt.
"If you take it as one". He smirks.

"I am not letting you two make this girl a challenge". Seraphina says in disgust. "Do it behind my back and I will slice your throat".

Silvio raises his hands innocently. "Yes sir".

Seraphina glares at me.
"You have my word sister". I say.

"Besides you have been knowing him for years. He doesn't come close to girls. It's like he has an allergic reaction for girls". Silvio says.

"I do". I reply.

"But why? Did one break your heart so bad that yo-". I grabbed Silvio's napkin and placed it into his mouth and left the room without uttering a word.

ʚ YAQUELINE'S POV ɞ

"You are marrying him and that is the end of the discussion". Father warns me.

I don't move a single muscle.

Normally I would listen to my father, like I always did. That man raised me, took care of me and protected me. I have lots of respect for him but this is something that goes beyond my limits.

He is giving me away like I am some sort of a whore.

"Father please listen". I plead and sit on a chair in front of his desk. "I can't marry him".
"And why not?" Father asks.

"I have a boyfriend, who I love. Besides Federico Mancini is not a good man. He has killed a numerous amounts of people". I state.

"And Lyès hasn't?" He says.

"That's different. Lyès kills because he gets orders and he doesn't kill the innocent. Federico is the one that gives orders and kills whatever breaths, including his own father". I sit closer to the edge of the seat. "Who says that he won't kill me?.

Father clears his throat. "So you are afraid of him?"

Yes.

Any human with a decent mind would.

"No of course not". I shake my head. "You are giving me away like I don't mean anything to you".
Father grabs my hand and massage it. "I care about you more then you think. I love you but you need to understand the difference between being professional at work and personal life".

I opened my mouth to reply but we got interrupted.

"End the deal now". Jacques bursts into the room.
