The Demon In A Mafia Book I : The Parents

21

Third POV
Elizabeth woke up, in the same bed as Meliodas, completely nude.

But this wasn't something new for her at the moment.

As she then remember what happened last night.

She blushed at a question that formed in her mind " how long had we been going at it?"

And by her sore legs you can tell it was long.

She then, got up, and decided that she was gonna take a bath.

In the shower Elizabeth recalled everything.

" I can't believe he chose someone like me." Elizabeth whispered to herself.

She then paused as she realized, "well, I guess I'll have to let mael down easy."

She really didn't want to break his heart, but it seems she just happened to love Meliodas a bit more.

She dried herself, and wrapped the towel around her, as she headed to her room to get ready for work.

She then took the towel back to the room to hang it to dry.

And greeting her was Meliodas who was busy getting ready for work as well.

" morning." Elizabeth smiled as she kissed him.

" morning." Meliodas replied

She then made her way into the bathroom.

Elizabeth had hung the towel returning back to him.

" I'm going to make some food, want anything?" Elizabeth asked

" nah I'm good, I'll probably eat at the office." Meliodas shrugged.

" alright, I'll see you downstairs then." Elizabeth spoke once more before she kissed him and left the room.

Downstairs, she decided to just make a small fruit salad.

After eating, Elizabeth and Meliodas left the estate and to drop off Elizabeth.

Timeskip Elizabeth's workplace~

" bye, see you this evening." Elizabeth smiled before she left the car and Meliodas drove off.

Elizabeth had felt queasy, she wasn't exactly sure, how to tell mael, It was literally eating her up inside.

She walked in as the familiar burst of cool air, whipped across her face.

" hey Elizabeth!" A voice called out to her.

She turned to see mael a couple feet away from her.

" so, have you made your desicion?" Mael rubbed his neck sheepishly.

Elizabeth nodded.

" mael, I-I want to say that unfortunately I can't be with you and I'm truly sorry, you're a nice guy that's for sure, but the way things are I don't think we can be together besides we've only known each other for 2 days leading up to 3, so I don't think it's best.. I'm really am sorry." Elizabeth apologized

" are you sure? I would do anything to make you happy  just say the word and I'll do it, but please don't give up on us." Mael pleaded.

" mael, I'm sorry, but honestly I don't think there is anything you can do, because I already have someone in my life." Elizabeth sighed

" who? Who's in your life that's so important to you!?" Mael questioned

" I don't even know if you know him or not, but it's Meliodas.." Elizabeth answered.

" oh I know him... it's ok I understand." Mael muttered before he walked off.

Little did Elizabeth know that what she said was a big mistake.

At meliodas's workplace~

There Meliodas sat in his office, emailing his representatives, organizing his different bases and having Diane create schedules for him.

" here's your schedule, Meliodas... oh and how'd it go? did she say yes?" Diane asked.

" thanks. And yup, you were right Diane." Meliodas grinned

" that's wonderful, well I have more copies  of different things so catch you later." Diane waves before she left the room.

Meliodas then got an email from an unknown Person.

Meliodas opened the email that which wrote:

You took the love of my life and now if I can't have her I guess nobody will, so watch your back as well as hers too, cause you can believe that someone is gonna get killed.

Meliodas eyebrows furrowed in anger.

" who in their right mind would threaten me, much more or less Elizabeth?!" Meliodas thought with fury.

He pressed a button and soon Diane's voice was heard:

D- Diane
M-Meliodas

D-yes captain?
M- call Gowther and Ban down immediately!
D- ooh, this sounds serious, I'll have themthere effective immediately, hold on.

And so the conversation was over just as fast as it had started.

Soon gowther walked in, with his usual blank face.
As well as Ban.

" gowther, can you trace an email for me?" Meliodas asked sternly.

" of course, pardon me." Gowther said as he took Meliodas place in the seat, and started coding.

" captain, what's going on?" Ban asked in his usual laid back mood.

" I got an email, apparently someone is ballsy enough to threaten me and Elizabeth, cause I stole the love of his life or whatever the f*ck they were talking about." Meliodas snarled.

" woah, that's what I call  gutsy, but how many people actually know that you and Elizabeth are together besides us the ones closest to you?" Ban questioned

" well you guys, Merlin, and I can't think of anyone else." Meliodas replied.

" well maybe Elizabeth told someone." Ban suggested

" it's possible..." Meliodas shrugged.

After a while, gowther spoke.

" captain, I traced the email back to where it was sent... and what I'm about might piss you off even more." Gowther spoke monotone.

Meliodas said "continue"

" ... it came from Elizabeth's workplace, from one of the computers in the employee room." Gowther answered

"Wait, doesn't that mean, that Elizabeth could be in danger at this very second?" Ban pointed out.

" go over there, and get Elizabeth, I'll call Merlin to tell Elizabeth." Meliodas grumbled.

" ok should I bring her home or-" ban said before he was cut off.

" no, bring her here." Meliodas answered.

Ban nodded before he left as well as Gowther.

As he then called Merlin.
