Mafia Love Affair: From One Night To Forever
Shattered into Pieces

'Well, my mom's life was a torture for five years thanks to her step mother until she got married to my father. My parent's marriage was result of debt payment that her father owes to my father and the only option my father gave him to repay was marrying my mom, he loved her.' Autumn's lips stretched in smile, that after a bad life his mother had received the most needed love and that too from her life partner.

'Now talking about the business which they are behind, is actually the business which my grandparents started and my mom was nominated as next of kin, so when her mother died, my mom become the owner of her shares and because of business being in loss and taking loan from my father, he had to sell his own shares to my father which he transferred back to my mom.'

'Okay, so in the end your mom was the actual and sole owner of that company' Autumn said, he nodded and rested his back on the couch.

'But my mom loves her father and brothers, hence never used her authority to kick them out, instead let them to run the business.' Autumn nodded her head as now she was getting to understand the story and where it is going. 'Four years back, after our one-night stand. My mom was diagnosed with last stage cancer and we couldn't do anything to save her and she left us, however, when these three brothers came to know about her illness, they forced her to transfer the shares to them as after her they had right to own this business but she had already made her will when she got aware of her illness' Autumn placed her hand on his shoulder, her eyes flickered towards the wall on her right where lots of frames were hanging, where he was with his mother.

'Your mother was a beautiful lady' she whispered to him, the corner of his lips stretched sadly.

'She was the purest soul I've seen in my life and the next I met is yours' he holds the hand that was rested on his shoulder and intertwined their fingers, Autumns heart swelled at the sight.

'What will you do about this then?' suddenly a question popped in her mind and she immediately placed it in front of him.

'Can't say anything right now, it all depends on them. How much situation they make worse will decide of the consequences' Autumn hummed at his response and turned to take the bread and start spreading the butter over it, she was relaxed and trusted him to handle the situation.

'So, they are your enemies you always talk about and ask me to be careful of?' taking a small bite of bread she asked from him and Alessandro started to cough, suddenly he felt the environment short of air, he stood up immediately to open the window and took deep breathes to calm down his nerves.

'Are you alright Sandro?' she quickly stood from her place and came behind him. He closed his eyes and prepared himself to say it, and open up all the secrets once and all.

'Yeah, I am fine. He turned to her and kissed her on lips passionately, Autumn was taken a back with his sudden action, however, it wasn't like she hate the kiss, instead she gave in to the kiss and returned it back with the same passion, wrapping her hand around his neck and pushing his head towards her so they can deepen the kiss.

The kiss lasted long until they both were out of breath, he rested his forehead against hers and whispered to her, his lips touching hers, Autumn kept her eyes close, kept feeling the soft movement of his lips.

'You trust me right?' his question forced her to open her eyes and look in to his green orbs.

'Yes' she nodded her head quickly. Sandro run his thumb on her jawline, his gaze fixed with her brown eyes.

'Listen Autumn, what I am about to tell you now is something that you have to listen patiently and not to react until I finish, and I plead you to trust me. Will you?' she made a distance between their faces, what he said right now had made her worried.

'Why are you acting so weird?' she couldn't stop asking from him.

'You will understand once I will tell you the most important secret of my life' she gulped.

'What is it?' she asked.

'First promise me, you will trust me and will not leave me just because of this secret' Autumn stepped back.

'Just tell me what is it?' she yelled in frustration.

Alessandro exhaled and fisted his hand before opening it again to subside the anxiety that was kicking inside him.

'I am Mafia' she frowned as if she had mistaken in listening to him.

'What are you?' she came close to him; Alessandro was watching her every movement.

'I am a Mafia king, leader of the biggest mafia in world' he licked his lip to wet them, they were getting dried and needed water.

'You're joking right?' she said with weak laughter.

'No, it is the fact and yesterday I went to Italy was for our mafia business' he lowered his head.

'You are Mafia, means you kill people?' he cleared his throat to answer her.

'Not every person but those who deserve' Autumn laughed sarcastically.

'And how do you decide you deserve to be killed and why?' she fold the hand on her chest, she was calm and was the most worrying thing for Alessandro, he could sense the danger that would come afterwards. 'Listen Autumn, we can talk about this in detail. I will tell you everything about our mafia' he extended his hand to hold her arm but she quickly moved back.

'Leave me alone' she said coldly, Alessandro's heart shattered in pieces.

'Please believe me, listen to me once' he pleaded.

'I said, leave me alone Alessandro' she shouted with all her power and Alessandro bit his lips, running hand through his hair, he left the room, but telling her to not do something stupid, he is waiting for her in his office and she can come there to do anything she wanted to do.
