************************************

Evelyn took a sip of her mocha latte and hungrily munched into her favourite chocolate mousse cake. " Mmmmm....Mrs Woods this is the best chocolate mousse cake I've ever had..did you make it? ". " Ofcourse silly, who else would make it? I'm glad you liked it..after everything that you have to face, this is the least I could do for you my child" Mrs. Woods replied with a sad smile. "Ohh Mrs. Woods I'm fine.. you really shouldn't worry about me so much..you know I read somewhere that too much worrying can lead to wrinkles on your face..now we don't want that Mrs. Woods so you better start smiling right now" Evelyn chuckled trying to hide the sadness within..

*After half an hour*

" Evelyn, two cappuccinos and one latte for table four, a Ceasar salad with a fruit parfait for table 6..quick" ordered Mrs. Woods from the counter. "I'm on it" replied Evelyn. She was rushing towards the counter when *thud* she walks into someone...she quickly mutters a sorry but what left her dumbstruck was the man she collided with. A tall man with shiny brown hair, stormy eyes, beautiful lips, wearing a suit which looked extremely expensive.. Evelyn quickly mutters a sorry again and rushes towards the kitchen blushing.
She reached the counter, her heart was hammering. The stranger took a seat just opposite the counter. He was staring at her and did not care about the fact that she could see him do that..he couldn't take his eyes off her. First look at her and she was the one..the one meant for the self-made multi-billionaire Antonio Bianchi..the cold-hearted man who had never fallen in love before..for whom his work was everything..he knew that he wanted her and that he would make her his by hook or by crook. He looked at her petite figure, her hair up in a ponytail and single lock dangling in front of her face, her perfect lips, her captivating eyes..he couldn't believe how can a person be so perfect..he watched her small hands grab the coffee mugs and filling them with coffee.

Antonio saw a group of boys by the corner looking at his love with dirty eyes. Antonio tried to calm himself down so as to not scare Evelyn. He saw her walk towards his table and his heart fluttered when he saw the way she was blushing... Antonio happy to see how his presence effected her. Mariano, Antonio's best friend who was there with Antonio all along blabbering about how last night a blonde girl named either Emma or Jemma tried to flirt with him. "Hey! Antonio, tu bastardo!! Did you even listen to what I was saying?? Hey I'm taking to you man..what the he-.." he stop when he saw what his friend was looking at and could not help but grin. Evelyn saw the two extremely good looking men sitting together but she could not help but look at Antonio..she felt something that she's never felt before..she felt attracted towards him and there was nothing that could deny it.. after spending the 18 years of her life with her animal of an uncle Mario, she thought she'd never love someone ever. Evelyn lost her parents when she was 5 years old and since then she lived with her alcoholic and abusive uncle Mario who'd take most of her hard earned money for buying liquor and every night get drunk and beat her..she was afraid..the hours at the coffee shop was what made her happy.. Mrs. Woods and her best friend Sallie were the only reason that she hadn't tried something foolish. She did not want to hurt them..they meant the world to her... Evelyn snapping out of her thoughts approaches Antonio's table and asks with a shy smile,"good afternoon sir, are you ready to order now? " Antonio clears his throat and without looking at her replies, "yes, I'd like a black coffee with one sugar cube and a salad." "I would love to have a latte, make it extra sweet and also a cheeseburger" replied Mariano with a goofy smile.. Evelyn couldn't help but chuckle at the way Mariano was smiling "your order will be served in 15 mins" she replied and walked away still feeling Antonio's gaze on her which made her shiver. What was it about that man that's making her act so weirdly?

Evelyn made her way towards the counter and started making the black coffee. Antonio noticed a bunch of high school boys sitting in the corner looking at his Evelyn with nasty eyes, that's when he noticed that the zip behind Evelyn's top had come undone halfway and her back was visible.. he wanted to go over to the boy's seat and ram his fists on their faces..he wanted to beat the cr*p out of them but instead he made his way towards the counter, grabbed Evelyn by her waist and turned her around leading to her getting shocked..he slowly started to push her towards the wall till her back was touching it..His gaze made her palms sweat..she was terrified but then again there was something in those eyes that made her feel safe.. His hands worked their way up her back as she squeezed her eyes close, still feeling his gaze still on her as he pulled the zip of her dress up and whispered in her ear with his lips nearly brushing, "you're mine tesoro..only mine".. with that he winked and left her standing there with wobbly feet and a heart racing like anything..he made his way towards the boy's seat, Mariano following him, Antonio reached their seat and grabbed a guy by his collar and brought him close to his face as his blood became as hot as fire due to the fury inside him. He was furious " you bastardo, how dare you look at something that's mine with such filthy eyes? How dare you? Fucking answer me right now! " He shouted. Everyone at the coffee shop were dumbstruck and were looking at Antonio. "Hey , hey man! Who do you think you are to shout at me like that huh? " Replied the boy as he pushed Antonio which did not work anyway. "Oh boy, trust me you really don't want to know who I am" smirked Antonio. "Hey fratello, they are kids man let em go" said Mariano. "Oh yeah sidekick? We look like kids to you huh? Why do you try us?" Laughed the boy.. Mariano grabbed the boy by his collar about to punch the boy just when Evelyn rushes towards them to stop them eventually getting pushed by the boy and getting hurt by hitting the side of a table.. Antonio rushes towards her and takes her in his arms making sure if she's hurt or not, "I'm fine sir" Evelyn replied with a smile. Antonio let's go of Evelyn and goes nears the boy, he then leans down and whispers in his ears "go home and ask your parents about who Antonio Bianchi is you'll know". The boy was shivering with fear now. Antonio Bianchi was no doubt a self-made multi-billionaire but that does not make him a sane guy or anything like that.. Antonio Bianchi was the leader of the Bianchi mafia family.. the most feared and the most dangerous mafia group which made Bianchi family be on top of the mafia list. The name made Evelyn get goosebumps. Why was it always that she had worst of the luck? First living with an abusive uncle and then feeling things for the leading mafia group's leader.
