Isabella's POV
"so... You are saying that a man is after me.. And that he wants me to marry his son...?"
Im not sure what or how to feel right now.
I stand up from the couch and walk over to the big windows and look outside.
"Isabella.."
Gabriel says in a soft tone.
I turn around
"I'm not sure how to respond right now Gabriel... I mean"
I scoff
"a man that I've never met wants me to marry his son?! And... Is he the same guy that tried to attack me at my house or was it another?"
My vision becomes blurry from tears that are flowing up.
"but... Why? Why me of all the billions of people in the world? What do i have that others don't? I'm just a student"
"isabella..."
Gabriel pulls me in a tight hug
"calm down... None Is going to do anything to you."
"you don't know that! You said it yourself that he is a wealthy man, he surely has something in mind to threaten me"
I feel his hand cupping the back of my head, brushing my hair
"that's why I wanted you to meet my sister. Have a seat and I'll explain the rest. You only know half of what I wanted to say"
Half? There's more?
___________________________________
He is a what?
"mafia...?"
"I'm in the mafia, so is Jason and my sister. Well... My sister not officially, she is only doing tasks here and there, she will also be with you to protect you, she knows how to fight well"
"so... You kill people..."
"Only those who deserve it... Thieves... R@pists...."
"and you... Being a CEO... Is it a lie or... A side job?"
He chuckled softly
"you could say a side job yea... My money comes from my company, we don't steal"
I nod my head
I turn to Jason
"Do you... Kill?"
"like Gabriel said, onlt who deserves it"
"right..."
Has he said anything to ellie... I don't thinks so, she would have told me.
"like I said, lexie will be with you by tomorrow, and when you are at home, she'll be around to check on you"
"ok..."
"you can stay here and rest for as long as you want. I'll also be here, lexie too. She will drive you home after"
I nod my head
"thank you."
Jason takes a few files and he leaves the office.
Lexie is still sitting on the couch drinking coffee calmly
Gabriel sat on his desk, probably work things.
"so... You know how to fight?"
Lexie nodded her head,
"mhm, Gabriel says I fight better than him" she chuckled softly
She probably does. Gabriel seems busy so I don't think he fights a lot.
"i didn't even think mafias existed in real life..." i mumbled
"well yea... Most of them are in the 'dark', not exposed since they do all the killing."
How is she so calm?
"and that man... Mr black... Is he that bad?"
"the boss, yes. His son, the one he wants you to marry, no. His son is more....kinder, he doesn't want to do the mafia stuff much, he is forced by his father since he is the heir to being the boss"
"at least he is kind...?"
"i guess... I only met him twice, in mafia ball, he isn't that bad"
"what do you do in... The mafia ball?"
"oh, the boss mostly talks about business, by boss I mean Gabriel, I'm in the shadows protecting for guns or anything like that"
"like a supporter in games"
She chuckles
"in games terms,im an archer, I move in distance, Jason is the support,and Gabriel the fighter and our boss, like the enemies boss is called 'final boss'"
I understand... So they protect from a distance and close up Gabriel so nothing will happen
"and you said you'll be close by to me?"
She nodded her head
"mhm, I'll be from afar when you are with friends or family, and close by when alone. Don't worry"
"We aren't sure why he wants you especially, but Gabriel said he will do a search up"
I'm just normal... Why do they want me?
"thank you"
"it's my job, so don't thank me. And... I think you are good company to be around, well have fun while at it"
I chuckle softly
"sure, you are really kind lexie"
"you can go ahead and do your homework if you have any, Gabriel will work for a few more hours so..."
I nod my head
"what about you?"
She takes out a book from her bag
"I'll read"
I nod my head, I could give her a few books while at it, she seems to like reading.
