Short Love Stories

My Savior

You know how they say that the room could be so tense that you could cut it with a knife, that is how this office was feeling. It was awkward and just tense. I don't know what to do, forget about what to say.

Right now I am sitting across from a man. A very powerful man. A man who could change my life from good to bad or bad to good. He is looking at me with this stern and accusing look. And I am in my seat, squirming and uncomfortable under his look.

"So how is your day going?" I asked, trying to make a conversation. However he did not reply.

He was wearing a dark suit, money and power screaming from it. He had a stern posture with a frown on his face. It makes me wonder if he ever smiles. He opens his drawer and rummages under it. He takes a cigarette out of his fancy box. Reaching for a lighter on his desk, he lights it up and starts taking puffs. I hate cigarette and when someone smokes, I start coughing. I feel like he knew that, which is why he was puffing the cigarette towards me... on purpose.

I started coughing, waving my hand back and forth to disperse the smoke. It wasn't effective. He leaned forward and with a stern scowl on his face, he asked me,"Do you know why you are here?" I knew why I was here and I also knew I was going to have to face this day sooner or later. I was hoping for later. And probably with him...

"I do know. However I do not know why you had to kidnap me, sir. I would have come if you had called me. Was this necessary, sir?" I didn't want to sound disrespectful, however I wanted to justify that whatever he did was wrong. To be honest, right now, I'm terrified. Because of the man in front of me. He could do anything with a snap of his fingers. 

"In order to get my words to reach to you, I had to do this. Do you know what you did wrong?" Now, I had no clue what we was talking about. I did not do anything wrong.

"I haven't done anything wrong. Would you please like to tell me what I have 'oh supposedly' done wrong." I asked sarcastically. I shouldn't have done that. He gives me astern look, that could have buried me six feet underneath the ground. He continues smoking making my breathing a little bit difficult. 

"You have made a grave mistake. You are also very delusional. You thought you could enter the Salvatore house and put Salvatore as your last name!?? Foolish girl!!" He said to me in a higher voice. Okay, now I was getting a little mad at him. How dare he accuse me of such thing? This is just ridiculous!

"I have done no such thing. Whatever you're accusing me is not true! I don't want the name!"

"Then what do you want?!??" He exclaimed. "Tell me what do you want?? What other reasons are there for you trapping my son? Huh? Tell me!"

"I did no such thing. I didn't trap your son. I fell in love with him. I am in love with him." I explained to him. It's true. I am in love with Alexander Salvatore.

Alexander Salvatore. The heir of the Salvatore. The son of the Mafia. The bachelor and hottest man alive in this world. Fell in love with...me. Surprising yes, very surprising. However when we first met, it was literally love at first sight. Throughout the first couple of months, we got to know each other. And slowly our love increased. However there was a problem. Throughout the history of the Salvatore's, it is known that they married from higher class and family. This way their business could boom even more and they would form more alliances. Alexander didn't want that. He didn't want a loveless marriage, one that is based on business and agreements. Which is why, Alexander chose to marry Nicole.

Nicole knew the risk of falling in love with the Mafia's son. She has her own insecurities. However Alexander always tells her that nothing is wrong with her and he loves her. Very very much. Nicole did not fall in love Alexander for his name, wealth, or luxury. She fell in love because of his personality and his nature. She fell in love with just Alexander Salvatore.
