Still Mia’s POV
“Are you ready to listen to me?” he asked me, smirking at me.
“Let me out, Drake. I don’t want to talk right now.” I responded weakly. I walked up to him, trying to get the key from his hand, but he kept taking it out of my reach, making me jump continuously as I tried to reach for it. I kept struggling to reach for the key, I did not realize that he was tricking me and luring me into his arm. Before I realized what was happening, I was backed to the wall, with his hand wrapped around my waist while the other hand held the key high above my head.
He had a mischievous smile playing on his face as he looked down at me, smiling.
“What would it take to make you trust me, how do I earn your trust?” he asks me, sounding so calm, caressing my cheeks. I couldn’t resist his touch, I unwillingly leaned into his warm touch as a soft moan escaped my lips. I don’t have an answer to his question, I wasn’t even thinking about his question, I melted in his arms and I let him hug me tightly, dropping soft feathery kisses on my forehead, and my cheeks.
“Come with me, lets have breakfast before heading down to the office.” He advised. He locked his arm around my waist and led me to the door, but just before we stepped out of the door, he stopped and turned to me with a deep frown,
“Ignore Rosalie completely. Let me handle her, trust me to do the right thing, okay?” I nodded in response and I let him lead me down the stairs to the dining. He pulled out a seat for me by his side, then he sat down next to me. I placed my bag on the seat next to me and I inhaled deeply, taking in the aroma of the different spicy meals that are spread on the table.
“Have I told you how beautiful you look this morning?” he muttered softly.
“Stop flattering me, Drake. I’m famished. Let’s eat already,” I asserted firmly, smiling at his compliments. Our meals were served, and I dug in immediately, munching on my food. A few minutes into our meal, the door to the kitchen swung open, and Rosalie stepped out from the kitchen, wearing a white tank top and a blue bum shorts.
“Baaabbbbyyy…” she squealed excitedly, running towards Drake with her arm spread out to hug him. Without turning to look at her, he put up his hand, raising his palm to motion her to stop.
“Don’t you fucking dare!” he scolded angrily. For the first time since I met him, I saw pure anger in his eye. I have never seen him this furious, the veins on his forehead stood out like cracks in a wall. He was ignoring her and eating his food but I could tell that he was grinding his tooth in anger. She walked to the other side of the dining and sat next to him.
“Drake…
My love…” she called lit softly, using the most seditious voice I have ever heard. I could tell that she is nervous, and I wondered why she looks so scared in front of him when a few hours ago, she was threatening to use her charms to steal him from me. I was so curious to know everything, so I decided to just sit still and watch. That way I’m going to find out exactly what is going on here. After all, he did ask me to ignore her, so I’m going to be the good girl he desires, I’m going to ignore them both, but I’ll keep my ears wide open.
“I… I… woke up earlier, and I prepared your favorite breakfast. Do you like it?” she asked him in that same cherry tone that makes me want to smack her stupid face. When she mentioned that she is the one that made our meals, Drake and I stopped eating immediately, and he pushed his dishes away in anger, smashing them on the floor, and he banged his fist on the dining table, making both Rosalie and I to shiver in fear.
“You don’t cook, Rose. We were together for more than two years, and you never cooked, not even once. Don’t tell me you took choking classes just for me,” he said calmly, using a sarcastic tone that does nothing to hide the anger and hatred he feels for her. I know they were together for more than two years, and I know they broke up, but it feels like they have something else going on between them.
“Fine, you got me, my love. I didn’t make the meal, but I stood right there and I instructed them to make your favorite meal, just the way you like it.
Oh, Drake, you know me so well, and I miss you so much. I just want to make up for the time I left you to yourself, I want to make up for all I did to you.
You were so good to me, and I hurt you so much. I’m so sorry, my love. I’m back now, we can go back to the way we used to be, you don’t have to put up with this thing anymore. She doesn’t know you as I do, she can never take my place. She is just a…”
Bam!
He hit her hard across the face and her head snapped the other way as her palm instinctively flew to her face to curb the pain. I expected her to flare up and attack him or even yell at him for daring to hit her, but she didn’t…
“Yeah, baby…
That’s what I’m talking about, that wild spirit within you, I want you to unleash it, I’m the only woman that can understand. I know your past, Drake, I know you have a demon within you and I chose to be with you because I love you.
With me, you can unleash your demon and live the best life. Not this sham of a life that you are living with this fool…”
“Call her names one more time and I’ll fucking slit your throat,” Drake warned. It’s just as if I was watching a movie, they both have secrets and I’m hoping they spill it all out before all this is over.
“I realized my mistakes, Drake. I’m sorry I left, please forgive me, I promise I’ll make it up to you. I can make you the happiest man on earth, you can be your true self with me, you won’t need to hide your true identity and live a fake life. You won’t be living this boring life if you had just made me your wife. I’m better than her on everything, I know you better than she does, and I’m back to stay with you for good.” She let out in a sexy tone, bringing her hands forward to take his hand and caress his palm. He glared at her and shook her hand away, then he leaned back on his chair, and gazed at her through hooded eyes.
I felt a little bit hurt because he wasn’t paying attention to me, he was focused on handling his issues with her. Yes, I know this is what I’ve always wanted, and I also know that he is defending me and proving to me that he has nothing with her anymore. But when I saw him gazing fixedly at her, I thought she was finally getting to him, I thought her words were beginning to convince him that he truly need her back in his life. I don’t know the demons she spoke about and I don’t know why she thinks he is living a fake life. All I’m worried about is the fact that he is beginning to stare lustfully at her and I’m worried she might be succeeding in her agenda, she might steal him from me if I don’t act fast enough.
“Drake…
Are you alright?” I muttered softly, trying to get his attention and stop him from staring at her so much. But he gave me the same cold treatment he had given her earlier, he put up his palm and stopped me from saying anything else to distract him. I felt hurt, and I thought I have lost him to her. She had a triumphant smile on her face, smirking evilly at me. I would have stood up and left the dining, but Drake’s next words erased every thought I have to leave.
“Where are my diamonds, my gold, and my money?” he let out through gritted teeth, his eyes blazing in anger as he kept glaring at her. The smile disappeared from her face to be replaced by her initial fear and nervousness. I wonder why she is so scared of him that way. For fucks somewhat the hell is even going on here?
“Where is Bradley?” he asked her, and she stilled in shock as her eyes went as wide as saucers?”
“Oh, you thought I would never find out about your secret affairs with him, right?” he added mockingly while chuckling at her pale face.
“I knew about you and Brad, I knew you were fucking him, even before you stole from me.
You know, for a moment there, after you eloped with my money and other valuables, I thought you ran away with Bradley, who would have ever thought that you were screwing the Irish mob boss, Danny.
You know the Mafia and the Irish mob are rivals, you know he is my sworn enemy. Yet you stole from me, ditched your lover, and eloped with Danny.”
At this point she was no longer as confident as she was earlier, she is literally shaking in fear and her head is bowed in submission as she refuses to meet his eyes. I could not believe that she is capable of doing all these things that he had accused her of doing. It felt so wrong. I’m sure it must have hurt him when she left.
She is so mean and heartless!
I would have continued glaring at her in anger for all the hurtful things she did to my husband, but I got distracted by the mention of Cartels, Mafia, and mob bosses. These are terms used by those in the Mafia, the mafia world is a very dangerous life to live. I don’t want to believe that Drake is involved in that kind of business, I just won’t believe it, not until I get a reasonable explanation from my husband. I focused on their conversation, I need more information.
“You look surprised, don’t tell me you thought I couldn’t find you,” he said in a sarcastic tone.
“I knew you were hiding in Danny’s penthouse in Dubai. If I wanted you back, I would have come to get you back from him. But I never wanted you back, I stopped loving you when I found out you stole my money to buy a house for Bradley.
I knew I couldn’t continue to be with you, I stopped loving you, but I couldn’t bear to kick you out because of the history we shared. Then you broke into my safe and stole from me again, and this time you decided to elope with Danny.
But guess what, Rosalie…
I was glad you left…
And on that note, I need you gone before I get back from work with my wife. And this time, if you dare to steal from me again, I’m going to fucking maim you.” He threatened.
