#Skylar P. O. V
“Here”Jen hands me a bowl of hot soup.
After I woke up sneezing like crazy with a red runny nose Jen told me the guys had left with Adrian to some meetings I didn’t ask much because I knew it was mafia stuff.
“Thanks Jen”I smile ,, my voice coming out a bit hoarse because of the coughing I’ve been doing.
“No problem,, Adrian would kill me if I didn’t take good care of you”She smiles back at me as she sits on the other couch.
We turn around and look at the door as footsteps starts approaching us. Soon Daniel, Mate and Jason appear through the door all wearing suits and looking fancy
They all took sits on the couches. “Where’s Adrian?”I ask them. Just then the man in question (Adrian) walks through the door looking exhausted
“Skylar come to my office we need to talk”He says and walks away…
“Do you guys know what this is all about” I ask the guys. They all shake there heads indicating ‘No’ I groan but still follow Adrian to his office.
“Close the door”He says. I close the door and walk to the sir in front of his desk. Adrian studies the Pistol in his hands with total accuracy.
“Sky…. When I first bought you i did it for fun I Thought it would be fun having a human pet”He says his eyes now moving from the Pistol. “But it seems I now have a job for you”he says
His eyes move from the pistol to me. “You’re to be my bride in one week”He says so casually that you’d think we were in a relationship before..
I let out a loud laugh”Your really funny Adrian I didnt think you had it in you” I laugh wiping away fake tears
“Your serious?”I exclaim once I notice the stone cold expression on his face. “Adrian I’m not marrying you”I say my voice surprisingly calm.
“You don’t have much of a choice sweetheart”He says tilting his head a little. How dare he think I will marry him. He might ‘own’ me or whatever but no way in hell am I marrying this idiot.
“Of course I have a choice. Just because you bought me from my greedy parents doesn’t give you the right to force me to marry you”I snapped standing up.
“You dont have a say in the matter. You are my property and I can do to you whatever I feel like doing and that includes marrying you”He growls his eyes darkening .
We’re now face to face with only his desk separating us. “I wouldn’t marry you if you were the last man on earth “I tell him.
Just then he pointed his gun straight to my temple. “What were you saying?”He questions.
“I’ll marry you. Over my dead body”I growl looking him straight in the eyes challenging him to make a move. He removes the gun from my temple letting out a small flirting chuckle.
“Chica”He says walking around the table till he reaches me.
“You will marry me… Like it or not”He says as his hand starts caressing my cheek so softly.
“I choose not. I’m not a doll you can play around with Adrian”I yell at him before I stormed out.
I can’t believe he just did that to me just when I was starting to believe he wasn’t that bad after all. I guess that just goes to show me that Adrian Dante has no heart.
“What’s wrong?” Someone asks me. I turn around and look up at Jason. “How do you guys live with him?”I question. Jason lets out a small laugh. “I guess you mean Adrian”He grins.
“His just so confusing one minute he’s nice and the next his a total heartless ass hole”I say in frustration.
“Adrian can be confusing”He says. “No.. he’s more than confusing”I role my eyes.
“Adrian has been through a lot Sky give him a break. The guy lost his mother at a young age, his father wasn’t always there for him because he was busy with the mafia. Adrian didn’t grow up being loved”He says.
“That still doesn’t explain why he’s so mean to me”I huff out. The biggest question here should be why I care so much about this shit.
“Well if you asked me I’d say he just doesn’t know how to treat you since he’s never liked any girl before” Jason said
“Huh?? You want me to believe that he’s shy?”I roll my eyes at Jason’s idiotic comment.
“Well I wouldn’t say shy just not sure how to treat you”He says. That makes more Sense!
“So what do you suggest I do?”I ask… i can’t believe I’m taking advice from Jason.
“I do know that Adrian likes you and even if you may deny It you like him too so all you have to do is use the oldest trick in the book” Jason grins evilly.
“Make the big bad mafia leader Jealous”He smiles.
“And if he doesn’t get jealous?”I question.
“Then I’ll make him set you free. I’m his right hand man so he’ll listen to me”Jason says…..
