Mafia's Madam

Four

Staring back at me were dark green eyes, showing no emotion, waiting for my reply

If I agree my life will change for ever and they will practically own me, being able to make me do whatever their heart desires

If I say 'No' I won't even
have a life because they will shoot me without a second thought

So all in all I don't exactly even have a choice

I get ready to give my answer, blowing out huge puff of air...

Previously

Sitting in front of me is Agostino in his neat, grey suit, dark hair falling a little over his forehead, forest green eyes looking at me intently with dark lashes surrounding making them look even brighter than they already seemed.

However by his overgrown facial hair I can tell that he had been busy with something not even bothering to shave also the dark circles under his eyes indicate the lack of sleep he had gotten but shockingly in no way or form are they taking anything away from his appearance but only making him look more admirable.

My current location is an office, which I'm guessing is Agostino's office by the way it is designed it's exactly what I would have imagined his taste to be

The walls of the room were very dark green moss colour, wooden floors that had squeaked with every step I took towards the leather chair I'm currently sitting at. To my left there was a leather couch with a huge,dark wood Victorian looking bookshelf beside it with books filling every inch not showing any possible space for a new addition

To my right there was a bar with lots of alcohol in it and glasses on stand by

Finally as a statement piece here was the dark wooden desk, probably oak which means that the only way to break it would be with a saw

And of course behind the table was sitting the man himself still looking at me without saying anything or blinking for the past minute or so

There were two other men in the room with us, both standing unmoving and completely quiet as if the consequences of breaking that would be lethal...which they probably would be

So naturally I decided to break the silence

I looked straight back at him " Is there something on my face?" I asked irritated

To my surprise his facial expression stayed the same he only leaned back on his chair and crossed his arms continuing to look at me

Well, it was worth a try

I decided that two can play this game and looked straight into his eyes also leaning back on my chair with arms crossed

He seemed to be amused by this as one side of his mouth tilted upwards in somewhat of a smirk however his eyes stayed on mine

While looking into his forest green eyes I noticed how dull they were, like there was no spark or happiness in them, I wonder if one day somebody can change that.

We stayed like that for a bit when his eyes broke the eye contact slowly trailing along the rest of my features from eyes to nose to lips and lingering there slightly longer than what I was comfortable with

As if noticing it himself his eyes snapped back to mine

It finally looked like he was tired of this useless game and uncrossed his arms leaning down to get something out of his drawer

He took out a brown folder and slid it to me across the table

I looked at it a little confused not knowing what to do, looking back up I saw his eyes encouraging me to take a look at it
