The Mafia’s Possession

The following day…

Melanie would be wearing a total of three dresses on her wedding day, so you could imagine the money Flynn was going to spend on his wife to be dress, not to even say Cece was the one who designed the dress.

Well, Flynn Harlan breathed in wealth so it was not a big deal to him.

”I remember telling you I wanted a black dress,” Melanie furrowed her brow when Cece brought out her wedding dress that was on a mannequin.

”I know but Mr. Harlan wanted white,” Cece smiled and Melanie furrowed her brow while Elle who had accompanied her sister-in-law laughed.

”By the way, why is Mr. Harlan not here?” Cece asked her as she beckoned to her assistant to help Melanie to wear the dress.

”He had somewhere to be,” Melanie faked a smile.

Cece chuckled and looked at Melanie who was trying on her dress.

Melanie looked very beautiful, even without makeup. Cece thought.

A few minutes after Melanie had finished dressing, Keelan entered the room noiselessly and looked at his friend’s future wife from the transparent glass that divided the room and smiled.

He brought out his phone and took an unaware picture of Melanie who was smiling widely then left the room quietly.

Flynn was sorting out some works on his laptop when the notifications tone rang out from his phone.

He looked at his phone and Keelan’s name popped on the screen indicating a call was coming in.

”Yes?” Flynn said as he pressed the phone against his ear.

”Did you see the picture I sent to you?” Keelan asked.

”No, why did you send a picture to me?” Flynn queried.

”Go and check it then ask me that question again,” Keelan hissed and ended the call.

Flynn went to his message box and saw Keelan’s message, he opened it and he furrowed his brow when he saw Melanie’s picture. She was wearing a flowing wedding gown and a smile was widely plastered across her cheek.

He smiled as he kept staring at Melanie’s picture when his phone rang again.

”You took my fiance’s picture without her permission?” Flynn asked as soon as he picked the call.

”So? Your bride-to-be is here for her dress fitting and you sit down uselessly at the office there,” Keelan said and Flynn shook his head.

What was he supposed to do then?

”What should I be doing then?” Flynn asked.

”I can’t believe you’re asking this. You should be here, watching her! You should see her in her wedding dress before anyone else does,” Keelan snapped.

”Why? It’s not like I’ll be blindfolded at our wedding. I’ll see her then or will it change anything if I see her now?” Flynn asked casually.

”God!” Keelan screamed and Flynn could already imagine him facepalming himself.

”There is nothing wrong, okay? Thank goodness you have a beautiful bride, I bet the men here won’t mind having their eyes on her,” Keelan said and Flynn widened his eyes in anger.

”No one dares look at my bride. I’m on my way right now,” Flynn stood from the chair.

”Hurry, a man can’t seem to take his eyes off her now,” Keelan laughed and ended the call leaving Flynn furious.

Melanie was about to try on her second dress when the door busted opened and Flynn entered.

”See who is here,” Keelan who had entered the room earlier laughed loudly and Flynn gave him a menacing look.

”Flynn!” Elle smiled and rushed to hug her brother.

Flynn waved at Melanie and walked toward her,

”Why are you here?” Melanie whispered as she smiled making everyone in think that she was happy to see her future husband.

”I am here to see you in your wedding dress,” Flynn smiled and grabbed her waist.

”Do you need to act like this?” Melanie pouted.

”Why? Are you shy?” Flynn asked and kissed her neck.

”As if,” Melanie rolled her eyes and pushed Flynn slightly then turned to face Cece whose back was against them.

”Let’s try the second dress now.”.

”Dude, I guess your bride is mad at you for coming late. Tsk… What a pity,” Keelan laughed.

~~

Flynn was working on his phone waiting for Melanie who has been behind the curtain for the past thirty minutes.

What was this lady wearing since morning?

Since he was around already, Keelan suggested he try on his suit and he did in less than fifteen minutes.

”Stop pressing your phone and look forward fo seeing your wife,” Keelan hit his arm.

”Should I be the one to open the curtain? It’s not even our wedding day yet and she is still dressing,” Flynn rolled his eyes.

”You’re a big-time asshole,” Keelan shook his head.

”Ah… Finally…” Elle breathed out seeing Cece coming out from one of the doors.

Flynn automatically turned in the direction.

Melanie appeared in her white wedding dress and Flynn couldn’t help but drool at his fiance.

Flynn knew Melanie wasn’t the most beautiful woman he had ever known. She was not also the most mature woman he knew but he knew she was the sweetest woman ever.

She looked very small yet womanly in the gown.

The beauty Melanie had was the kind of beauty any woman would admire.

Flynn walked slowly towards Melanie, ignoring the comments from everyone in the room.

Melanie was indeed beautiful.

Flynn stretched out his hand when he got to her place and Melanie placed her hand on Flynn’s palm.

”What do you think?” Melanie asked shyly, wanting the man to give her a nice comment desperately.

Flynn didn’t reply and lowered his head and raised her chin gently.

”Beautiful,” and he sealed it with a kiss on the lip.

”So beautiful,” Flynn ended the kiss and kissed her shortly again.

Melanie blushed and rested her head on Flynn’s chest for a while.

Melanie raised her head and looked around the room.

Seems like she was not the only one blushing because Cece covered her mouth with her palm and Keegan could only smile.

Elle was very emotional that she grabbed a tissue and wiped her face with it.

”Gosh, this is very emotional,” Elle smiled.

Flynn smiled and made Melanie face him then he took her lips in his again.

He was getting addicted to this woman.

When Flynn broke the kiss, Melanie could feel her heart beating very fast that it made her knees go weak.

Flynn knew and he hugged her, stroking her hair gently.

It would have been very embarrassing if she fell.

”I can see the groom likes the cloth already as he can’t seem to let the bride go,” Keelan joked.

~~

”I know I’m very beautiful but do you need to kiss me in front of everyone like that? It was too embarrassing!” Melanie whined in the car.

Elle went home with the car that brought them because Flynn had insisted that Melanie must go with him.

”What was embarrassing there? It’s not like you didn’t enjoy the kiss,” Flynn laughed.

”You’re very shameless,” Melanie whispered so the driver won’t hear anything they were talking about.

Melanie would have talked loudly if Devon was the one driving the car.

”It’s a shame that you’re pretending you did not enjoy the kiss,” Flynn smirked.

”Asshole!” Melanie said through gritted teeth and Flynn laughed loudly.

”I know…”

Flynn was interrupted when his phone rang.

He checked the caller and it was Devon.

”Yes?”

”Sir, six months ago, Mrs. Melinda had a brain tumor,” Devon said.

”Stop the car,” Flynn ordered.

Flynn alighted from the car and Melanie could only wonder what the man was up to again.

”What were you saying?” Flynn asked again.

”Mrs. Melinda Tatum had a brain tumor six months ago. I looked into the hospital and the doctor confirmed miss Melanie suddenly turned up with the money for her mother’s surgery at midnight,” Devon explained.

”Then…?” Flynn trailed off.

”Miss Melanie stole your money to pay her mother’s hospital bill,” Devon said.

Flynn removed the phone from his ear and looked back at the car.

Melanie stole from him to pay her mother’s hospital bill.

Wow, this woman was very rare.
