Mafia Family

41. The Reunion (Edited)

"Eliza? Is this really you? My Shorty?"

I was crying and nodding frantically.

We again hugged Tightly.

When we parted Ivan came in senses. He looked around and saw his guards still pointing gun on me and my family. He became furious. His face emotionless.

"If anyone of you hurt her, then I'll personally kill you myself. Brutally." He commanded his guards.

All the guards gulped and and lowered their guns immediately and bowed

To me?

Even I shivered a little hearing Ivan's angry voice.

As soon as the guards went back to their places to guard, my family also lowered their guns and turned to us.

But Ivan turned to me and his eyes soften. He again hugged me but this time gently.

"I missed you so much." He said.

"I missed you more Giant" I said and giggled when he groaned on his nickname.

"And happy Birthday!! " I wished cheerfully after parting hugs.

He smiled at me.

"Thankyou so much shorty. " He replied and squeezed my nose a little.

Our little reunion was over when I was shoved behind someone. And this someone is none other than Dustin who protectively stood in front of me.

"Hey!! " I whined when he blocked me.

"How do you know her? " Dustin asked seriously to Ivan ignoring my whines.

"She's my Best friend." Ivan replied to which I smiled.

Ivan looked around and saw that everyone's gaze was on me. And I felt uncomfortable.

"Everyone kindly resume the party" He announced.

Everybody again started chattering around.

Now all my family members were around me and Ivan's father was also now standing beside his son.

I squeezed my way out and stood in between these two families.

"Dad, this is Ivan. My only and best friend in my old life. Because of him I was able to survive school without any bullying. " I explained dad.

"And Ivan, meet my real family." I explained to Ivan.

For a minute he was shocked because really he didn't expected me to be Mafia's daughter.

Everyone were dumbstruck listening to my explanation and my face was beaming with happiness.

"Mr. Valentino is your father? Like real father?!" Ivan asked.

I nodded happily.

Dad shook his hand and wished him birthday.

Same way all my brothers shook his hand and wished him.

Well 4 of them actually wished him while glaring.

And these 4 are none other than Dustin, Noah and Twins.

I sighed. They won't stop being protective.

Ivan introduced me to his dad,

I bowed, " Hello Mr Volkov"

He smiled and gently kept his hand on my head, "God Bless you child, Ivan has told me about you. I know how devastated he was when you disappeared."

"Enough dad" Ivan said awkwardly.

His dad is really nice.

Nonetheless I was very happy like really very happy after meeting Ivan.

God!! I missed him so much.

Some other businessmen came to wish him due to which we had to separate but he promised me that we'll talk.

After around 45 min. I was drinking juice surrounded by my family when Ivan strolled towards me.

"Mind if I talk with her alone?" Ivan asked dad and Ryan.

Before any of my over possessive brothers could say anything, dad and Ryan allowed him .

Ivan took my hand and we went towards balcony. Nobody was there so we could easily talk.

"So missed me?" I asked grinning.

"You've no idea" He said winking at me and then looked at the view ahead.

"Oh wait, did I tell you that you look very beautiful?" He complimented playfully and i nod my head and blushed.

"Are you really happy?" He asked getting all serious.

"Honestly telling you, I'm more than happy" I smiled.

He returned my smile and said, "I don't know Valentinos much since my dad used to deal with them but what I have heard till now is that they are very dangerous. But they really protect their family and loved ones. And you Eliza are their family now. I have seen the affection in their eyes for you. "

I had tears in my eyes listening to his sincere words.

"Don't make me cry again. You'll ruin my makeup." I said jokingly.

"By the way You've a very strong punch you know. It actually hurts." Ivan said holding his jaw where I unintentionally hit him.

"Ohh that, even I don't know why I hit you. Maybe because I missed you so much and you didn't even came to find me?" I said playfully glaring at him.

He raised his hands in surrender.

"I did and even I was shocked when you disappeared like that."

"But now what I come to conclusion is that Ryan must have erased all your tracks so that Samuel's gang won't come for you." He continued.

I nodded in understanding.
Knowing Ivan would have found me since even he was in mafia too.

"So what were you doing in that town leaving your native place Russia? " I asked.

"Dad gave me the last task to accomplish before I take over Russian Mafia after dad." He answered.

"Woah woah!! " I exclaimed.

"So I'm the the daughter of Mafia King, sister of soon to be Mafia king and best friend of Mafia king of Russian Mafia. Damn" I said grinning.

" And you yourself are Mafia princess Eliza." He added.

I didn't realise till now. Damn.

"So tell me everything. How was your first impression? I know you hated meeting strangers let alone live with them. So how did they tell you about them being in mafia? " He asked excitedly.

I told him everything. Like everything including my Aaron.

At the end of the story he was more intrigued in Aaron.

"Is this Aaron Larson you're talking about? " He asked.

"Yess!! How did you know? " I asked shocked.

"Well his father really has a hand in market and is well known even in Mafia world. He has quite a good reputation to be honest. But I don't know much about his son. " He explained.

"So what, you like him? " He asked nervously.

I went blank for a second.

I never admitted that I love him.

Wait love?

He asked like.

Do I love him?

My lack of response grabbed his attention.

"You like him Eliza? " He asked serious.

"I-I think I-I l-love him" I said to him.

But before he could respond.

"WHO DO YOU LOVE?"
A voice came from behind me.

SHIT!!
