My Mafia Marriage

2

I'm positive I look like an idiot with my jaw open, and my eyes widened in disbelief. I can't believe that HE is my new boss, and even worse, I may be getting fired on my first day.

"You are the boss?!" I doubted.

He rolled his ocean blue eyes as I nervously peered up at him. I bit my lip and began fiddling with my fingers as I waited for his confirmation. Lil was doing the same thing, except she is tensely rubbing her arm instead of fiddling with her fingers. We both have always had similar nervous habits.

"No shit, il mio piccolo petardo," He grumbled.

I almost choked when he confirmed Lilian's claims and began speaking in a foreign language. My shock turned into something completely different, hearing the way his foreign words rolled of his tongue. His deep, husky voice makes his words sound so sexy and sensual.

My cheeks redden from shame at my previous actions and sinful thoughts about my boss. His plump lips formed a smirk while he observed my reaction to his confirmation, enjoying the effect his words have on me and probably every other woman who hears his sexy voice.

"What's wrong, love? Where did that feistiness go?" He mocked.

"Don't call me love," I snapped.

Even though I'm swooning on the inside, I can't forget how much of a jerk he is. Plus, he is my boss, so I shouldn't be feeling the way I do about him, and he shouldn't be calling me pet names like love.

His smirk grew as he taunted, "Ok...Love."

I glared at his smirking face, comprehending he is doing this on purpose to irritate me. His blue eyes hold amusement as he takes a sip of his whiskey, indicating how much he enjoys provoking me. I clenched my jaw in annoyance and attempted to walk in front of Lil, but she promptly blocked my path, not allowing me to get any closer to our new boss.

I glanced over at Lil with pure rage on my features, but she gave me a stern stare that a mother would give their child to make them stop being bad, hindering my efforts to get to our boss. I sighed in defeat and crossed my arms over my chest like a pouting child since she is treating me like one.

"I'm so sorry about her, Don. It won't happen again," Lilian confidently affirmed.

I had to hold back my scoff at Lil's apology. She shouldn't apologize to this asshole for my actions; he should be apologizing to me for his rudeness. Reasonably I should apologize for my inappropriate behavior too, but he has to apologize first.

"You are lucky I won't kill her in my bar Lilian," Our boss countered.

My eyes widened in shock as a gasp left my parted lips. I glanced over at Lil, who once again looks terrified, convincing me that the boss isn't bluffing with his threats. I peered at the auburn-haired man requiring more confirmation, but he is only observing everything going on with no emotions as if it's a normal threat. Both of their reactions cause fear to course through my veins.

"Thank you, Don," Lilian blurted, slightly bowing in what seems to be obedience or respect, confusing me even further.

Our boss nodded at Lil dismissively, then extracted a cigarette out of his pocket and began to smoke it. Lil sighed in relief at our boss's dismissive behavior and forgiveness, then spun towards me with a scowl on her face.

"Let's go, Natalia!" Lilian whisper shouted at me.

I furred my eyebrows at her agitated state, not understanding why she'd be so angry at me. That dangerous looking man just threatened my life, yet she is enraged at me instead of him.

Before I could ask why she is behaving like this, she grabbed my arm and hauled me out of the VIP section, leaving no room for complaints or questions.
