Married to the Mafia: Capítulo Trece

Karina Carlton.

Her name had such a nice flow to it yet it burned whatever taste buds I had.

We were all in Ramone's office, Raymundo, John, Demetrios, Micah and I along with Karina who sat in the armchair, glaring at the lot of us. "I wasn't aware you needed to bring your pets to meet me." She stated bluntly and I felt anger rise up in my chest.

"First of all, who do you think you are bringing your ass up in here?" I growled out at her and went to take a step towards her but Raymundo had a firm grip on my waist. "I got this, Dee." Demetrios placed a hand on my chest, his jaw clenched in anger.

"This is Ramone's workplace." He began, his voice professional and stern. "You're the one who came here uninvited. No one told you to come here. You came here of your own free will so excuse me if you feel like us pets are too much for you. You're the one in the wrong here, Karina." Demetrios gritted his teeth with a hand on his hip.

Man, he was a total bad-ass right hand man and I felt envious of Ramone for having this dude employed under him.

"Damn." John muttered under his breath while fixing his trousers. "Alright there, uomo?" I asked, traces of my Italian accent coming through my voice. "Yeah. Just a little bit under the weather." He blinked rapidly as he stared at the sight of Demetrios in front of him.

Did John Cavanaugh find someone to feast his eyes upon? Oh god, Demetrios would have his hands full.

"Karina, why are you here?" Raymundo asked through gritted teeth as he folded his arms. Karina looked up at him with hooded eyes as she pouted, wanting him to fall under her trap.

If she wasn't trying to get with Raymundo, I would think she was a beautiful woman.

"I hope you didn't forget our deal." She whispered and Ray rolled his eyes. "You're the one who left me. It was time I found someone else." He stated casually and I scoffed at him. "Found someone else, my ass." I whispered under my breath and his grip on my waist tightened.

"Oh yeah, whose that?" She challenged him, not clearly seeing his grip on my waist. Is this lady blind or what? Does she have selective sight or something?

"Him." John gestured to me with an affirmative nod. "Oh him, the whore I caught coming out of our house the other day?" She snorted like she was offended to the gods above. "Ray, sorry to break it to you but that wasn't really an upgrade." She pursued her lips and let out a chuckle.

"This bitch." I found myself shaking from the intense rage and had to will myself to count my numbers. When I was diagnosed with a severe case of anger issues, Alezander Giordano taught me a method to help calm me when I got to a high level of anger.

Squeeze my fists while counting to 50.

"1," I squeezed my fist tightly, my face burning bright red from how mad I was. "Derek baby, it's okay." I heard Raymundo say soothingly. "You're all the more beautiful as the day I met you." I don't know whether it was his voice or his words, but I calmed the fuck down.

"Listen Karina, what we had is over and done with. You left me for my best friend and that's that." Raymundo barked out in a deep tone that had me shivering. "Now if you can leave, we can continue what we were doing before we were interrupted by an unneeded presence." His voice was so dominant, it literally scared the hell out of me yet it enticed me to my very core.
