Darkly, Yours

Chapter 14

"I'm bored."

Story sit on Cassius lap despite him being in a meeting. He set her properly on his lap so her back was facing the camera.

"I'm almost done here."

Story lay on his chest and listen to whatever they were talking about.

"The shipment should arrived in China by tomorrow. That's a hundred and seventy million for the product and two hundred and forthy thousand for shipping."

"That's ridiculous!"a bald man said.

"Sean don't try to negotiate. I'm charging for the package you stole from me. You should be grateful you're still alive."

Story feels chills run down her spine at the deathly tone Cassius just use.

"It's either you pay up or watch out. One by one."

The man visibly pale. He know what Cassius means. The others seem to do too. They refused to look at the camera.

"This meeting is over."

Cassius cut the call and turn his attention to the woman in his lap.

"Wildflower?"

His hand went to her chest. "Why aren't you wearing a bra?"

"I never wear a bra when I'm not going out."

He kiss her neck with a smile. "Not complaining."

"Leave them alone. They are mine."

"Ours,"he whispered in her ears. "Arms up."

She lift her arms and he pull a sweater over her head. Story smell it and smile widely.

"Smells like you."

"Does it smell bad?" Story shake her head no, very quickly.

"Smells good. Mine now."

"What's mine is yours Wildflower."

Cassius smile to himself when Story snuggle into him. He will never say it out loud, but he love this little woman. For the first time in his life he's wondering what his life would be like in the future. A future with his little Wildflower.

"Can I get a tattoo too?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Do you want to mess up this perfect skin of yours?"

"No."

"Good."

"Something is poking me."

"Stop moving,"Cassius grind out. Story look at him confused.

"But Cassius,"she whined.

"Keep moving and I'll fuck you on the desk." Her eyes went wide and she start blushing. "You choose to sit on my lap in only underwear and t-shirt."

"It's comfortable,"she mumbled.

His phone rang and he answer it.

"Send him in." He hang up and look at Story. "I have work."

"But I'm bored out there."

"I never said you should leave."

He get up and set her down in the chair. He walk over to the bookshelf and slide it back. Story gasp as she saw the arrays of guns and knives.

"Are you the mafia or something?"

"I'm more than just the mafia Wildflower. I'm the king. I'm above all the other mafia families."

"Sounds like the books I've read."

"Yeah? What do they say?"

Story now has his full attention. He lean against the wall and focus on her. "It's basically romance. The good girl the mafia man who is smitten with the girl and become a total sweetheart. Anyways they fall in love, married and have kids."

Cassius laugh. "You're saying your future Wildflower. That exactly how its going to happen."

"You love me?"

"Of course I do. All that's left is to get married and have alot of kids."

"Not alot. A boy and a girl. Actually two girls will do."

"I don't think so love. One of you is enough."

"You can't have too much of me."

Cassius smile.
