The Mob Queen• Laurinah[COMPLETED]

Life Goes On

So, I apologize for last chapter. Hopefully you weren't emotionally attached to Dinah or anything and that hurt you. But I did say I would fix things, so let's go.

Dinah

Waking up from coma had felt like I had been drowning, but never quite enough to kill me, like I couldn't escape even though I wanted to. It was just me and my thoughts and when I felt myself take that first gasp of air, my eyes opening, the world changed around me. Something just felt different. It didn't feel different in a bad way, it just felt weird to be awake. I felt weaker than I ever had, except for one moment. A sudden pain launched in my stomach at the memory, causing me to fade back into my thoughts out of sadness.

She had shot me. Lauren had shot me. She had every right to, but it didn't make it hurt any less.

"Mrs. Hansen?" Someone called out and my eyes flickered to a man in a white coat standing in the doorway, his pale blue eyes wide. "You're awake?"

"No. I'm still asleep." I felt my natural sarcasm dripping in my voice as he cleared his throat. "No dumbass. I'm awake. Now where are my men. I have to be somewhere." Already pushing up to sit up, the doctor shook his head, starting to approach me. "I'll cut your arm off if you get any closer." My eyes pierced through him and he visibly shuddered before mumbling a quiet apology and turning around.

"I'll go get your men," the doctor spoke and I nodded as he left, standing up and grabbing a bag that had my clothes in it. Walking into the bathroom after ripping the IV out of my arm, I examined myself in the mirror. There was a scar from where Lauren had shot me and just glancing at it brought bad memories back to resurface.

After pulling on my bra and white shirt along with the rest of my clothes, I just stared at myself in the mirror. Once I found a pack of hair bands in the plastic bag, I put my hair in a ponytail as looked down at the small hand case of makeup. It made me smile slightly at the ridiculous thought that my men had thought this was the way to slide back into my heart. God bastards they were.

However, I found myself flipping the pallet open and applying a little eye shadow because it just felt right. My memories of if I had ever done this were fighting hard to resurface and I figured the lack of being in the real world had pushed some memories out of arms reach.

"Mrs. Hansen? Hello? Are you in here?" I heard the voice of Agent Horan and I couldn't smile any more as I swung the door open and looked at the blue eyed, blond haired boy. "Boss, you're back!" His eyes lit up and he opened his arms as if wanting a hug before he nervously put them down and looked away. "Sorry ma'am."

"It's okay. It's good to see you too, Horan," I said before concealing him in a friendly hug. He laughed lightly before we pulled away and I looked my best agent up and down. "How have you been?"

"Alright ma'am. Thank you for asking."

"And things around the town?" His blue eyes became a bit dim as he frowned.

"Not good ma'am."

"Oh?"

"After you went into a coma the mobs split and started to fight after they found out Lau-Mrs. Hansen shot you in effort to kill you. Her father took her away and people lost interest." At the mention of Lauren, I felt my heart flutter. She was alive. She was okay.

I felt a sting of pain shoot through my heart but I didn't care. She could have actually killed me and I would still love her. That was what was so dangerous about love, it truly was my only weakness and it had almost cost me her life and my own.

"Do you know where she is?"

"Yes ma'am. We've had two agents on her since the incident but we haven't made any moves since you're still our commander in chief."
