Two Broken Hearts

Chapter thirty-four

Matteo's POV:

I came to the big mansion and called Leoniva Smirnova. He, of course, made it's way to the front and we just looked at each other.

I saw him one more time, before he was a mafia leader. I was in a good relationship with his father and he respected me for it.

He came closer to me and we shook hands.

"Welcome! I'm glad you were able to come. Please come in and feel like in your own home." He said while walking towards the entrance with me.

I chuckled: "Well thank you for the warm welcome but we both know I didn't have another choice than to be here, you threatened me." I said, my anger coming out.

"Hey, don't mix business and personal life. I'm just doing good business, we Russians learnt to do it this way. That doesn't mean we aren't on good terms." He said while tapping me on the back.

"My mafia is my business and my personal life. Don't fucking threaten me again." I said thru gritted teeth.

There were his men all around, they were heavily armed but I knew he won't kill me. At least not today. He needs me.

Behind me in another car came the golden four that I was badly excepting.

All were looking pretty intimateting, even Kelsey. She actually took this situation very seriously because it was about Marcus.

She had black sunglasses on and all of them wore black.

I smiled.

"Let me introduce you to my most trusted people in my family." I said.

He nodded his head.

"This is Sarah, she works for me. She's the best at seducing, so be careful." I said to him, grinning.

She put out her hand to shake his but he kissed her hand instead.

"Here we kiss women's hands. Nice to meet you Sarah, you can call me Leoniv." He said to her, dropping her hand.

She politely smiled and nodded.

"This is Antonio, he's in charge after Marcus, he's my third in command and the best of the bestest." I said.

Leoniv shook his hand.

"Then this is Lucas, I think I don't even have to say that Marcus and him are twin brothers, they look alike a lot. He's here on personal account as well, but he's in charge after Antonio." I said, looking at Lucas who first didn't want to shook hands with him but after glancing at me and seeing my glare he quickly and curtly shook his hand.

"Then I left the sweetest for last. My dear Kelsey. She is here on personal account too. She's Marcus's girlfriend. She is also the best at hand to hand combat." I said while I tapped her gently on the shoulder because she started into Leoniv like she wanted to rip his throat.

"I like strong women. It will be nice to have one as a guest in my house." He said and kissed her hand.

I could visibly see she cringed but she kept her cool and nodded.

He took the weapons from everyone except Antonio because he knows how important security and safety is for me as a mafia leader.

We went inside and he showed us our rooms. I asked him about Marcus and he said that he will be at the dinner tonight and we could talk to him and see why did everything lead to this.

After hours of waiting and contacting my mafia in America, it was finally time for dinner. We all dressed in suits and girls had dresses that the Russians picked.

All five of us, with me first, made our way to the dining room where a guard escorted us.

I could see we were all on edge because we're going to see Marcus.

As we went down the steps we could see a big table and Leoniv wasn't there, yet.

Of course! He has to make a dramatic entrance.

I immediately spotted Marcus sitting at table with few other men that I mostly didn't recognize.

Marcus didn't look like he was tortured or that anything bad happened to him. He looked as sharp as ever.

As soon as Marcus saw us he smiled and quickly stood up.

"Boss!" He said to me.

I shook my head and smiled and we hugged.

"You fucking idiot! We're going to talk later about everything, right now it's just important you're OK." I said when we parted.

He nodded and said hello to his brother and Antonio and Sarah.

Lastly he looked at Kelsey who was at the verge of crying and he wiped away her tears.

"Amore, I'm here." He said to her and they hugged so tight, I thought Kelsey would crush him with her little frame and a steal grip.

They kissed and I separated them.

"Remember where we are and what's the goal. We need to have our head in the game! Kelsey you can sit at the right side of Marcus and I will at the left. Everyone! Focus!" I said quietly and quickly.

They all nodded and we sat down where out names were written.

After a few minutes passed the doors again opened.

I looked over and I stopped breathing for a moment.

I must be hallucinating.

There stood Karla fucking Kalem. She looked sexy as ever and fucking Adrian had a hand around her.

I couldn't believe that she was here.

What was she doing here?

As she got closer I noticed that her eyes were teary and as soon as Adrian let his grip down she went to sit beside me.

She didn't even notice me.

I saw the fresh bruise on her cheek and her neck and I was really pissed.

If her father did that-
No scratch that! If anyone laid a hand on her, they're dead. I don't care who I have to cross or kill.

I promised myself that she has to come back without a hair on her head missing!

A few seconds passed as I was observing her and she still didn't seemed to notice me.

She was looking straight ahead and her head was high. She looked like a fucking queen.

Such perfection doesn't exist in the world.- I thought to myself.

I came a little bit closer to her and whispered in her ear so nobody heard me: "Do you not even recognize me any more, malena?" I asked. (Little one)

She tensed as she heard my voice.
Her eyes quickly glanced at me and she ironically chuckled.

I really missed her voice.

"This isn't happening." She muttered under her breath. I chuckled at that. But I knew she had things to explain.

My face got serious and I said: "Look we're going to talk later about all the shit you've caused and done but right now I just want to know who made you cry and why is there a fresh bruise on your cheek and fresh fingerprints on your neck?" When I finished with talking my hands balled into fists and I was trying hard to control my anger but failing.

She opened her mouth a few times but nothing came out. As I was about to demand her to tell me what happened to her.. the doors opened and everyone stood up.

Karla and I did too because Leoniv Smirnov entered.

Here we go!
