Surviving The Mafia

Part 34

Part 34

"They got married." I blurted out to Severon, who currently had his arm around my waist, his head resting on the top of mine.

"Yes, they did," Severon agreed, running his fingers up and down my hand.

"I'm glad my sister is married. Severin might not be your usual prince charming but he is special in his own way. I used to be so worried about Maril. I always prayed that she would find the right man, and now she is Severin's wife. Now I don't have to worry anymore because he loves her and will take care of her," I continued.

"Yes, he will. Now you just worry about yourself. Your sister is in safe hands now," Severon replied.

"Why would I worry about myself?" I asked him.

"Don't you have to get married?" I could tell that was a rhetorical question, but I chose to answer anyway.

"You actually think some guy would be stupid enough to marry me? I mean, you'll kill me before any of that happens. So no, I'm not worried about marriage. I just want Maril to be happy with Severin," I responded.

"You're right, I will kill, you're just wrong about who I'm going to kill," he stated, causing me to frown.

"I know you will kill me, you hate me, that's all," I said.

"If I hated you so much, then why would I have sex with you?" Severon questioned, moving my head a little so he could look in my eyes.

I shrugged. "You're the big, bad Mafia, you have sex just for the fun of it. Maybe you wanted to satisfy your lust, so you had sex with me," I responded, my heart hurting over that thought. If what I thought was true, then Severon was a bigger monster than I gave him credit for. He used me to satisfy his urges, and that thought hurt me more than when Maril smacked my teddy bear in revenge.

Severon's eyes widened before they narrowed into thin, menacing slits. I gasped when he grabbed my neck, squeezing just a little bit, enough for me to know that he was angry and wouldn't think twice about killing me.

"You think I used you?" He growled lowly.

Fear gripped me just as quickly as Severon gripped my neck. What was wrong with him? Why was he acting like this, I just stated the truth.

"I don't know, did you?" I threw my question at him.

Severon squeezed a little tighter, just like dread tightened its hold on my heart. "I give you everything that I possibly can and you say I used you." Oh my pumpkin squishy, he was raging.

"Sex? Is that everything you can ever give me?" I enquired, hoping to God that he wouldn't squeeze any tighter.

"There is much more that I can give, that I will give, the question is, can you take it?" He leaned closer, his breath fanning my face.

Looking at him in the eyes, I replied with as much as confidence as I could without having my bears with me. "I'll take whatever you give me. I handled your sick tortures, I can handle anything else you've got to dish out. But I doubt you can give me much, since you can't even buy me a teddy bear."

"The things I'll give you are much more important and significant than teddy bears," he spat, as if offended that I dared to mention teddy bears.

"Well if you can't give me teddy bears, you can't give me anything. And why are you strangling me?" I did not want Severon to know how afraid I was right now, it might give him more power than he needed.

"Listen dandelion—" Severon was cut off by the sound of the sudden crash that echoed throughout the mansion. I sat up, my heart hammering against my chest. What was that? Had the aliens finally invaded the planet?
