THE MAFIA’S CAPTIVE ANGEL

Sin placed his hand on her, which was still resting on his chest. He looked at Luna before pushing her hand off his chest roughly, giving her a look like she was nothing but dirt on his shoes.

“Do not ever touch me again; I thought I made myself clear the last time we met.” He seethes dangerously, glaring daggers at her. His gaze was terrifying and furious, but Luna didn’t seem affected by his reaction. She sat there with an amusing smile on her face. There was no glimmer of fear to be found in that green eye of hers. If possible, she seems to be enjoying his reaction.

“Don’t tell me it’s because you found a new toy,” she said with a devilish smirk, looking like a maniac. “You can’t really be serious with her.”

“Luna, things between us have been over for a long time, and that will never change,” Sin replied in a very deep, deadly tone. “There is only one woman in my life, my queen, and that is Mani.” He turned to face me with a smile; my heart skipped a beat.

Feeling the color rise up in my face, I knew he was sincere, and I knew Sin was never going to leave me for any other woman. I believed him, and like that, the wave of jealousy diminished.

He placed a kiss on my cheek, making little sparkles erupt from my skin. He pulls my chair even closer to him before pulling me into his lap. His muscular arms slipped securely around my waist. A blush crept up on my face. Alexander and Serena had a smile on their faces as they looked at us lovingly, while Athena and Luna sent a death glare my way at their failed plan.

After dinner, we hung out at the dining table. I was still on Sin’s lap since he wouldn’t let me go. That was when I felt the pressure against my core, and I knew I couldn’t hold it any longer or I might end up wetting myself, which would be very embarrassing and humiliating.

I tried getting rid of Sin’s hand around my waist, but he just tightened his hold, refusing to let go. “Nikolai,” I whispered close to his ear, and he hummed. “I need to use the bathroom, like, asap.”

He looked at me before getting rid of his hand, and I quickly stood up. “Please, I need to use the bathroom,” I asked. Serena opened her mouth to answer, but Sin beat her to it.

“Don’t worry, Amore, let me take you there.” He was about to stand up, but I put my hand on his shoulders to hold him down.

“It’s okay; spend some time with your family. One of the maids can direct me,” I say as a maid walks me. I quickly left the dining room, trailing behind the young maid as she directed me to the bathroom.

When I got inside, I quickly did my business and washed my hands, using a tissue to dry them. That was when the door pushed open, and I heard the sound of heels clicking until Luna came into view.

She had a small smirk on her face, and her hand crossed over her chest as she stood there observing me. I turned around to finish drying up my hands before tossing the tissue into the dirt bin in the bathroom.

I moved to leave the bathroom just for Luna to block my way, staring down at me with her model-like height.

“Can I help you?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.

“You know you are just another slut that he will do away with once he is done with you.”

“Preach to me something new.” I said it sarcastically. “I can count the number of times I’ve heard those words, and here I am, still by his side.”This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

She scoffs, “He is going to end up coming back to me because I’m the only one who can satisfy him the way he wants,” she claimed, a smirk still present in her face.

“Yeah, sure. Keep waiting-maybe after a thousand years. I wish you luck.”

“Who do you think you are, uh?” Anger blazed in her eyes.

“We have been through this, Luna. Are we going to keep going in circles? You keep embarrassing yourself, trying to get his attention, knowing he wants nothing to do with you. He bluntly ignored you, like you didn’t matter. I guess you aren’t doing that great in bed, If he keeps going after a slut like me like you claimed,” I moved past her to walk to the door, only for her to drag me back harshly, and I almost lost my footing but was able to steady myself in time before hitting the ground.

“Stay away from Sin.”

“Excuse me!.” I furrowed my brows.

“You heard me; Sin doesn’t want you in his life. You don’t matter to him, so back off and crawl back from whatever garbage bin you came from,” Luna threatened.

I raised an eyebrow at her, daring her to say that again. If she thinks I am going to cower in fear, then she has something coming for her. “Obsession is a disease; instead of pinning over someone who clearly doesn’t want you, quit deluding yourself and find someone else because sin will never be yours.” I rolled my eyes.

“I would watch it if I were you; you have no clue what I am capable of. So if you know what is good for you, you will heed my warning while I’m still playing nice to you,” she says while taking a step, walking closer to me, but I stayed rooted on my spot, meeting her eyes, and refusing to back down.

I let out a light giggle, which caught her by surprise, and she looked at me like I was a deranged.

“I didn’t say anything funny here, bitch.” Luna sneered. I brought my manicured hand up to my face as I checked my nails, ignoring whatever word she was spitting out.

What’s with everyone acting like they know me? I wasn’t the same Mani as before. I still prefer peace to violence, but that doesn’t mean I back down when I’m attacked. I raised my head, giving her the best glare I could muster, and she cowered. I could see the fear in her eyes.

I rolled my eyes before trying to leave for the third time, but her words stopped me in my tracks again. “I guess you are just going to leave; after all, you are a coward and a freaking lunatic.”

I turned and started walking toward her, inking slowly and threatening steps just like Sin does when he wants to attack a prey, and it worked because with every step I took, Luna took a step back until her back landed on the wall. She might be an inch taller than me, but I was able to meet up with her.

“You have no clue what I can do.” I sneered at her. “Next time, think twice before threatening me; I won’t be so nice as I am now.” I said it using the same words she used against me before leaving.

I walked out of the bathroom, slamming the door shut. I turned the corner to get back to the dinner room but ended up hitting my head on a brick wall. I used my hand to numb the pain and took a step back. It wasn’t a wall; it was Sin standing there, hands in his pocket, looking at me with an emotion I couldn’t read.

“How long have you been standing here?” I asked; I wanted to know if he heard the conversation between Luna and me.

“Since Luna followed you to the bathroom,” he says, “I didn’t want her to cause you any harm, seeing how unstable she can be. I guess I was worried for nothing; now I know for a fact you don’t need saving, and you are very capable of standing up for yourself.” He had a genuine smile on his face as his hand patted my head, and it felt so nice.

“Why don’t we get out of here? This dinner has been hectic mostly for you,” he said, taking my hand in his, and we both walked with Sin leading the room in a different direction to what seemed like a relaxing lounge.

The rest of the family was talking amongst themselves, and it looked like Alexander and Serena were reprimanding Athena.

“We are leaving.” Sin stated, giving a curt nod, dragging me out before anyone said anything. I heard footsteps trail behind me, and a hand touched my free one. I stop, making Sin stop as well. Serena came to stand in front of us.

“It was nice meeting you, Mani. I apologize about how dinner went.”

“You don’t need to apologize; irrespective of everything that happened, I had a great time,” I said to her. She smiled, pulling me into a hug, then moved to hug Sin as well. I waved at Alexander before following Sin out of the house.
