Warnings- smut

Noen placed his hand on my lower back. He walked me down the stairs. I saw a few heads turn back to us. Everyone looked alike at that table except for a few men and women. The table had 16 seats. Yeah, I counted.

There was a few steps left. Noen has longer legs so it was hard to keep up with him, but I managed to yank him back, giving them the hint to walk slow.

There was an old man at the end of the table. He had brown hair with heavy streaks of grey. His hair also has a shiny bald spot. He looked to be in his late 50's early 60's.

Noen led me to a seat one away from his father. He sat in the one right next to his father. He placed his hand on my thigh.

"Since everyone is here, I'd like to formally introduce astrid pierce, a key element to the well being of this organization." The old man said loudly in his raspy, smokers Voice.

Everyone's heads turned to be. Noen squeezed my thigh.

"Now, a little birdie told me that you broke one of my men's nose witching 3 minutes of you being on Italian ground. Is that correct?" The only man asked looking at me.

"Yes. I told him calmly to let me go but he just didn't budge. So I took his gun from his left pocket and hit him in the face with the grip." I said calmly, gulping right after.

"By the way, I'm Giovanni, the leader." He said.

"ahh, posso dire che sarà una grintosa. pensi che sia adatta a sposarti e diventare la tua regina della mafia?" He stated turning his head to Noen.

[ahh, I can tell shes going to be a fiesty one. You think she's fit to marry you and lead as your mafia queen.?]

"sì, penso che sia abbastanza dura."

[yes, I think she's tough enough.]

"Astrid, this may seem too sudden, considering you just got here, but to ensure your full safety from the Italian mafia, you are to be wed to Noen. Noen is to become the head of the mafia and you are to lead right beside him as his queen." Giovanni said emotionlessly

"Well I'm not shocked by anything anymore. I just take it how it is." I sighed out.

"Now, let's eat." He said.

Several maids bought out two dishes. They placed dishes in front of us. Everyone proceeded to open their dish. I opened mine to see salmon with all different types of herbs and spices.

I looked over to Giovanni to see him scolding a girl with a simple facial expression. She looked out of place, new.

"Why is there a strand of hair in my salmon." Giovanni asked in a deadly tone.

"I apologize sir, I'll have a new one out immediately." She said in a shaky voice.

When she went to grab the plate given is hand grabbed her wrist immediately. He pulled out his gun and pointed it at her

No

I shot up out of my chair and grabbed the gun from his hands and threw it across the room. I grabbed the woman's hand out of his quickly.

"She may as well be innocent. Did you ever stop and think that the hair could have been the cooks and not hers. She's just an innocent server." I say boldly.

I looked at the table to find everyone's mouths wide open. Even noens.

I yank her up the stairs with me. Tears flooded her eyes and cheeks. Before my step up the stairs I saw giovannis face. It was pure embarrassment. These little men.
