Stalked by the Mafia Boss

“I warned you man, I clearly warned you but you didn’t listen.” Ade growled at Jace, “Now she’s gone, you are here whining like a child that got his candy snatched from him, fucking go look for her and set things straight.”

“She doesn’t want me near her, she made it clear.” Jace said weakly, “She doesn’t want any thing to do with me ever.”

“Then let me talk to her like a mother.” Claire interrupted the conversation, “I bet she would listen to me.”

“No mum, I don’t want you getting involved in this, I feel it would complicate things, things are already as bad as it is.” He told her, “Besides, it’s hopeless.”

“That’s it? Hopeless? You are giving up on her just like that?” Ade asked, “After all this time? After all that has happened? After everything?”

“Are you doing this because you wanna keep seeing Daniella?” Jace asked with raised brows.

“Nope.” Ade denied, “I know not what you speak off, just doing my Job as a caring friend.”

“Hmm… really?”

“Don’t try to change the topic fucktard.” Ade growled, “Man up and go get your woman, Russo would like to take advantage of this, he would love to manipulate and woo her.”

“I won’t let him.” Jace growled, “What do I do? She hadn’t let me see her for weeks.”

Ade looked over at his best friend, “First step.” He said, “Take a shower!”

Korina stared at Claire. She was pristine and elegant. Her greying hair pulled backwards, her face was spotless but had wrinkles caused by aging. She wore a simple floral dress.

“Hear me out please.” She said and Korina wanted to scream at her that the last ederly lady she had spoken to about a relationship had back stabbed her.

“I really appreciate you trying to talk to me about Jace but I can’t do it anymore.” She said to the old lady hoping she didn’t hurt her feelings by what she just said.

Claire looked at her and sighed, she had traced Korina to work without her son’s knowledge and tried to get to have a talk, she was adamant at first but then agreed.

“Please dear.” She pleaded, “He needs you, my boy needs you.”

“Well, he doesn’t.” Korina said sternly, “If he did, he would have told me the truth from the beginning.”

“He’s at fault for that.” Claire said knowing Jace was very wrong for what he did.

“How can he hide from me his societal status? How dare he pretend?” She asked, “I wonder what other things he had kept away.”

You have no idea, Claire didn’t voice out her thoughts, “Please give him a chance to explain himself.” She pleaded hoping the girl would stop being stubborn.

“I can’t stand a relationship based on lies.” Korina sighed, she would begin to second guess all Jace had to say now, “It’s all destroyed.”

“It’s your choice dear, it’s your choice.” Claire stood up and put her sunglasses back on, “All I am asking is for you to make the right decisions.”

Korina didn’t say anything, she watched the old lady take long elegant strides out of the restaurant and into the black Audi parked outside, she never removed her eyes from the spot even as the car drove off.

The night was darker than what Korina was used to and she had begun to regret ever taking the short cut home.

She walked faster increasing her pace hoping something terrible wouldn’t happen to her as she passed the dark alleys.

Korina heard footsteps behind her and looked backwards, four blurry men were walking behind her, she increased her pace, hoping they weren’t following her, anxiety coursing through her.

The men doubled their steps and she broke into a run with them hot on her heels.

They caught up with her quickly and surrounded her.

“Look what we got here.” One of them said laughing, “Let’s kill her already.”

“No.” Another one said, “Fun, then kill.”

“Yea.” The one that spoke earlier said and they all agreed laughing.

“Don’t come near me!” Korina screeched, “I can fight.” She threatened assuming a karate pose. The men stopped to look at her and laughed before lunging at her.

“Help!” She screamed, “Some one help me!”

Korina was about to give into their torment when she saw one of the when being thrown aside, his body met with a well before he crashed to the ground. The other two men their attention away from her and focused to fight her rescuer.

She looked in the direction, familiar long blonde hair flying as he threw each kick and punch, it was Jace and she wondered how he learnt to fight like that.

The other two men were down now and Jace walked towards her with an outstretched hand.

“Give me your hand Korina.” He said looking at her.

“Nope.” She stood up from the ground, “I didn’t even need you, I got everything under control.”

Jace snorted, “Really?” He asked, “And yet I could hear your cries for help.”

“Leave me alone Jace.” She started walking away with Jace following her.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Could you please hear me out?”

“No.”

“Please?”

“No!”

“Please Korina.” He stepped in front of her, “Let me explain.”

She looked into his once sparkling grey eyes that were now dull with grief and gave into pleas.

They both walked out of the alley and to the tarred road.

“Is that your car?” She pointed at a black sleek Ferrari parked by the roadside.

“I am not getting in that.” She screamed walking away, “I can’t believe you own a Ferrari and…”

She was cut short when Jace lifted her and threw her over his shoulder, “What the fuck Jace?”

“Stop talking.” He slapped a hand over ass and she felt a tingling sensation between, the action turned her on.

“Put me down.”

“Nope.” He refused and took her towards the car, he opened the door and dropped her in, “Buckle up babe.” He smiled, “We are going to my home.”
