"The funeral was packed" I comment while we were on our way back home

"Yes and they were all staring at you" he adds stubbornly "I told you that they were going to stare at your body"

"Oh calm down...they were only looking because they've never seen me before and don't even get me started on the number of people who were staring at you"

"Me?"

"Yes you!... those women were shooting daggers at me but they were practically trying to seduce you"

"Well now we're even" he says somewhat angrily

"I don't know why you're so angry" I looked out the window

"...because you're my wife and it's a rule not to look at another man's women; let alone a Don's wife"

"You're just being insecure"

"Not insecure. I just feel disrespected"

"So now you know how that feels" I say

"That's different"

"You're right it's only different because I don't flirt with them"

"Those idiots looked at what's mine...it's these things that make me want to kill somebody"

"First of all I'm not some property; you don't own me so I'm not 'yours' and you won't go around killing people just because you're jealous" I said and he swerved to the left and halted the car. Dramatic Lorenzo is so strange

"Let's get one thing straight Angel" he spoke darkly "I will kill whoever I want to kill whenever I feel that the time is right...okay?" He looked me in my eyes

"N-no" I stuttered

"Wrong answer...I'll give you one more chance to rectify that mistake of yours or else..." he smirked and pulled out a gun from his blazer

"Or else you're going to kill me?" I looked at him disbelievingly

"No my Angel...not you" He smirked and rolled down my window "I'll kill that man right over there" he pointed his gun towards a stranger " And I don't bluff" he said in an unsettling tone

"Lo-..."

"Now repeat after me" he stated "My husband Lorenzo Rosi; the mafia boss can do whatever the hell he wants, whenever he wants and as his wife I will respect his wishes and I won't stand in his way"

"You can't possibly be serious" I tried to reason with him but I'm return he just removed the safety from the gun "Fine!" I said loudly "My husband Lorenzo Rosi; the mafia boss can do whatever the hell he wants, whenever he wants and as his wife I will respect his wishes and I won't stand in his way even if he's being unreasonable" I said angrily and he smirked and put his gun away

"That wasn't so hard was it?"

"I hate you all over again" I spat

"You mean to tell me that you actually at some point stopped hating me?" He asked and I could tell that he wasn't being genuine so I ignored him. I'm not in the mood for his sarcasm right now

"Angelina loosen up...I wasn't really going to kill him"

"Then what was this shit for then...my heart literally stopped beating when you pulled out that gun. I thought that a man's life was in my hands and unlike you...I don't want to play God" I said frustrated "ugh I'm so annoyed at you right now... I wanted to look past the fact that you're a murderer but you just had to remind me of the type of person you are...I don't know what kind of sick and twisted game you're playing with me but it's not funny. I don't like it when you act like this" I said all this without making any eye contact and occasionally throwing my hands up in the air "for the past week I've been trying to give you the benefit of the doubt but here you go making a joke of someone's lif-..." I didn't get to finish my sentence because this idiot attacked me with his lips.

I tried to pull away but his hold over me was much too strong. I relaxed into his embrace and kissed him back even though every fibre of my being told me to pull away from the murderer. This Greek God of a murderer. The type of murderer who manages to make you forget what you were thinking of just seconds ago.

Although the kiss was rough, I couldn't help but get lost in it. Our lips moved in perfect sync. His lips felt like they belong against mine. I couldn't help but feel that there was desperation from this kiss when he pulled me even closer to him. The kiss quite literally and figuratively took my breath away.

We both pulled away to catch our breath but as soon as I looked into his eyes. Those orbs took my breath away. He looked at me expectantly, he looked at me like he wanted me to make a move

He looked at me the same way a predator looks at it's prey. Those eyes had me wanting more so I did what any level headed person would do... I went back in for the kiss

My hands found solace in his hear and he awkwardly pulled me onto his lap.

This kiss felt more intense. It went on longer than the first one. He dragged his hands from my waist down to my butt and gave it a squeeze making me involuntarily moan earning myself a low guttural grunt from him

I pulled away from the kiss when I felt something vibrate in his pocket.

He pulled it out and answered coldly.
"I'm in the middle of something, make it quick"

I tried to get off his lap but he held me down

I couldn't get a single word he was saying because everything was said in Italian. I took this time to study his features as he spoke

His eyebrows as bushy as ever but tamed. Lashes much too long. His grey eyes look as stormy as the day of our first kiss.
I put my index finger on his face and traced his sharp jawline. I moved my thumb slightly up to his lips; so inviting, so compelling.

He was still on the phone while I studdied him. He seemed to visibly get angry as he spoke rapidly.

I inched closer to his face and he didn't seem to notice. My hands found their way back to his hair and this time it was my turn to interrupt his as he spoke; I gave him a peck followed by another peck. At first he seemed taken off guard but when I gave him a second peck he reciprocated it but deepening it.

This kiss didn't last as long as the others because I pulled away so that he could carry on with his call

I got off his lap and he reluctantly let me go.

Once he hung up I could tell that the conversation he just had over the phone was bothering him.

He gently took hold of my hand and sighed

"You'll have to go home without me"

"Wha-... why?"

"Because something has come up and it needs my attention...you won't go home alone though, two cars have been right behind us; one of them will follow you home to make sure that you're safe and I'll travel with the other one" he opened his door

"Why can't we go together?" I opened my door and got out

"Because it's not safe" 

"Then why would you go knowing well enough that it's not safe?"

"I'll explain some other time" he

"Fine" I shrugged nonchalantly even though questions kept firing through my head

"How about one more kiss...for the road" he asks with a small smile

I ignore him and get in the driver's seat. I hear him say "I'll take that as a 'you'll get one when you get home' then"

I drive off and watch him get into one of the SUVs that the guards drive.

I speed off not really knowing where I'm going. Instead of typing our home address I type Samantha's address.

I received a text from Lorenzo asking me where I was going because apparently all his cars have a GPS on them. Once I read the message I ignored his message and sped up with one of the SUVs hot on my heels.
