Married to the Mafia Boss

Liam watched his wife smiling at the guests, flirtatiously. He was mad at her, frantic even, she did everything which he didn’t want her to do, from wearing a funeral dress to flirting with the male guests. She had crossed all the lines.

Ryan was greeting the guests, but his eyes were focused on his son who looked on the verge of losing his cool.

He went to Liam, “don’t be too harsh on her, son. She is not aware of the rules of our world.”

Liam turned to look at his father. “Then she will know them soon, I want her to behave like an obedient wife but she is trying to provoke me.”

Ryan sighed. “Liam, try to understand, we have many things on our hands right now we can’t afford a nagging brat on our necks all the time. She tried to contact the police to know about her father’s culprits. You really think she would be able to handle our true identity.”

Liam exhaled sharply. “It’s all because of her father,” he muttered under his breath. His eyes focussed on his wife who was talking to some women regarding some charity events.

A lot of Liam’s business goes through charity, bribing high officials for work was never easy but no one said it was difficult. “I have something important to discuss with you.”

Ryan knew what he wanted to talk about. “Let this drama be over and we will talk about it tomorrow.”

Liam nodded. “Now that everyone knows I am married to Aurora King, I am going back home to take care of this so-called reception.”

He went to Aurora, smiled at the ladies with her, grabbed her hand and asked in a tone that seemed polite to everyone but Aurora knew it was an order for her. She was drunk but she understood his commands.

“He wants to go home,” she giggled and continued. “You were about to introduce me to your brother, Mrs Samson.”

Liam had enough. “Meet him some other time,” saying that he yanked her to him and started walking out.

He didn’t wait for his chauffeur to open the door, Liam opened it himself and pushed her inside the car like a bag of potatoes.

The chauffeur looked at the whole scene with horror-filled eyes. “Drive!” He ordered him and settled inside.

“You can’t treat me like this,” Aurora screamed, her voice wavy with alcohol. “You lying deceitful monster, I don’t want to be with you, let me go!”

Liam closed his eyes but didn’t reply. He wanted to be alone with her so that he could declare her sentence. Her punishment.

He let her scream all she wanted and with every curse that left her throat, he was going to penalize her. Once they reached the home, he yanked her out of the car and took her to the elevator. Aurora snatched her hand from him, his anger rose, he once again pulled her closer to him.

“Leave you arrogant owl, I don’t want to be with you. Your presence disgusts me. Don’t touch me, you lying bastard!”

He let her speak, he wanted to know what she wanted to say. He wanted to know her thoughts so he could cage them. This time she had crossed her lines once again when he asked her not to. “I hate you, leave me!”

Aurora wanted to get away from him. His presence, his spicy scent reminded her of the moments she spent with him. She gave him her everything and he was only playing with her, it pained her when he mocked her about those moments and she wanted nothing else than to scratch his eyes out. Aurora wanted revenge on him and she would get it, somehow, someway she would.

Paulina stepped aside seeing the look on Liam’s face. She understood that her boss was in a scary mood.

Liam kept walking, clutching Aurora’s hand ignoring Aurora her screams. He opened the door of his room with his leg and pushed her inside, closing the door with his leg.

Aurora’s head was bursting with pain, tears of anger and frustration perked in her eyes. “You have no right to treat me like this!” She yelled at him, her vision blurred due to tears in her eyes.

Liam clasped her neck and pulled her closer. The tears in her eyes made him uneasy, he pushed her on the bed and walked out of the room.

Liam was trying to calm himself when his phone buzzed. He accepted the call without caring about the caller ID. When he put the phone in his ear his brother’s voice treated him.

“I was right, there is something our father is hiding from us!”

Liam pinched the bridge of his nose, “what do you mean? Have you found out something?”

“Thomas was talking to Dad about a secret, he didn’t want Aurora to know about our work. He was threatening dad.”

Liam’s brows arched up. “What could be so big that our father listened to his threat!”

“Ralph, keep your ears and eyes open, now, have you found anything about Juan?”

The silence on the other end was the answer Liam got. “Fastened your search, Ralph. I don’t want to stretch this issue anymore,” saying that he ended the call and went to the gym to kill his anger.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Aurora fluttered her eyes open when the morning sunlight flashed through the window, there was a slight ache in her head. She sighed, recalling the glass of liquor she consumed last night, shaking her head. She did her morning routine and decided to have breakfast in the kitchen as she was already late for The Bella. With Susan gone to the USA and Emily on her honeymoon, she was alone here but work was the only thing which would keep her sane now, dressed up for office she tried to open the door but it was stuck.

Aurora frowned. She tried to open it again but it still didn’t open. What the hell happened!

“Paulina, open the door!” She shouted, thumping the door loudly but she didn’t hear Paulina’s voice.

Aurora thought about calling but she didn’t have her cell phone, Liam never returned it. Aurora went to the intercom but to her horror it was dead.

She scowled. Her cell phone was not with her, the intercom was dead and the door was locked, she was stuck in this room.

Aurora went to the window and tried to open it but was shocked when it didn’t open too. Now she knew something was wrong. She thumped the window, “is someone there, open the door of my room, please.” She went to the door once again and called Paulina but once again no reply.

Tired, with continuous screaming she sat down on the bed, tears of irritation jerked into her eyes. She was angry, frustrated and exhausted. She left a sharp screech in anger.

Aurora pulled her legs to her chest and left a sob, she was dying out of hunger. Her stomach was making grumpy noises. She once again tried to use the intercom hoping that it would have started working but all her hopes died once again. She sat there on the bed and waited for someone to open the door. Her eyelids turned heavy with a continuous cry and she closed her eyes but she stood up abruptly when she heard someone’s footsteps outside the door.

Before she could go there the door was opened and Paulina entered with a food trolley.

Aurora gritted her teeth. “I called you multiple times to open the door, where the hell was you? The intercom was dead, the window and the door of the room were locked and when I was yelling and thumping the door, no one listened to me! Why?”

Paulina didn’t reply, only gave her a stare and walked out of the room. Aurora’s eyes widened in horror, she ran after her but was too late for that, the door was already closed, she tried to open it but once again it was locked.

Now she understood perfectly, she was locked in this room like a prisoner in a cell and it was done on Liam’s orders. Aurora couldn’t believe that Liam could be this horrible, now she was sure that her husband was not less than a monster in human form.

She didn’t know what to do, her stomach groaned at the sight of food but her heart was repulsed with it still. She went to the trolley and set a plate for herself, she had tears in her eyes, she was holding sobs while eating the food.

The whole day, she was sitting in her room, without any communication from outside. She had a television and a small library in her room except for that there was nothing to do. To her luck, the four once again opened and Paulina once again came back food trolley, Aurora didn’t waste her time to ask any questions to her, she tried to run out of the room but was stunned seeing two men standing outside her door when she tried to run they stopped her and once again she was thrown into her room.

“Leave me, who are you! You can’t touch me, leave me!!”

But they didn’t say anything. The man who was holding her placed her on the sofa softly and the three people walked out of the room, once again the door was locked.

Aurora screamed at her luck, she was cursing the day she met Liam, she believed his fake promises and she promised herself that she would never forgive him for this.

On the other hand, Liam was trying to assess the situation at hand, his brother returned from Churchill and was sharing the information he gathered there, none of which was new. Again, the whole scenario revolved around the masked man and the Mexicans. Thomas was nowhere near successful in finding Juan.

“I want to know what dad is hiding!”

Liam scowled at his brother’s words. “Do you think it’s important at this moment, Ralph? I want this scenario to be over…”

Ralph nodded. “There is a thing which can help you and I am sure you have thought about it too.”

Liam understood what he was saying. It’s time for Liam to officially take over this father’s chair. Till now, he was somehow dependent on his father’s approval for things to be done. Once he officially took the chair of the Vancouver crime family’s head, things would run the way he wanted them to run.

“I will talk to dad about it, today.”

Ralph leaned back in the chair, his mind still focused on the words Thomas said to Ryan, since then he was thinking about that only. Ralph knew it didn’t matter to Liam as much it mattered to him, his gut feeling was telling him that whatever Ryan was hiding was something big and that’s the only reason he asked one of his most trusted men to keep an eye on Ryan Knight.

“Keep me informed if Thomas finds something. I am going to meet dad,” saying that Liam took over the leave from his brother and drove to his father’s house.

Liam greeted his father before taking the seat on one of the chairs in front of him. “Is there something wrong?” He asked, seeing the lines around the corner of Ryan’s eyes.

“Except for the things going on, no, there is nothing wrong. Thomas is trying to handle the situation but the news of Ethan being in Comma taking a troll over him.”

Liam drummed his fingers on the desk. His eyes calculatingly stared at the chair his father was sitting upon. “I want to take over, now. I have followed all the rules of mob life. I think it’s time you give up on the chair.”

Ryan nodded. “You are right, but remember one thing, Liam. I might be giving up my chair but you still have to respect me as your precedent, your father. And I want to be your counsellor till Ralph gets married to someone, then he can take over. Then I will retire completely.”

Liam agreed, he would need someone experienced for the role of counsellor and his father was the perfect choice till Ralph fulfilled the condition of being married. Liam could change the rules but mafia life was based on rules and rituals. If he started making drastic changes this havoc would happen in his territory.

“Tomorrow, you will be crowned as the new Don of Vancouver!” Liam nodded at his father, a silent understanding passed between them because from tomorrow a new chapter was going to begin in Vancouver.
