The Badass Mafia Boss Queen

“You’re super charged today” Maxine shouted as I emptied the bullets in the 9mm he gave me that morning.

Aside from the numerous rooms Hollis showed me, I discovered there were other rooms in the big house, like the shooting range. And I did jump excitedly when Maxine proposed a home defense beginner class.

“Yeah,” I shouted back. “It would be great to find other avenues to burn the extra charges.” I replied.

“What do you have in mind?” He positioned my hand and pointed it directly to the shooting target placed in front. “Focus, U.”

I nodded and paused. Welding the pistol with precise strength, I positioned myself and hit the target for the first time that morning.

“Now that’s more like it.” I bit out with a smile. “Why don’t we visit Hollis’s club tonight. Have a drink or two. Just some harmless night out.” I suggested.

Maxine chuckled knowingly, shaking his head. “You can’t use me to piss your fiance off. I’ll show you, after the wedding. No one’s going to let you through the doors without questions unless you show up as Mrs. Genovese.” He said. “Now, concentrate and hit that target more often.” He ordered like I was some kind of machine that could be turned on and off at will.

I snorted and turned to the target again. “Does he have some girl he’s keeping out there that is preventing him from coming home all the freaking time?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Why don’t you ask him?”

“You know I can’t.”

“Why not?” Maxine queried.

“What was I even thinking? I know you won’t tell me. So, there was no need asking at first.”

“U, Hollis is a powerful man, he’s a workaholic too, he’s never had a girlfriend and he’s never spoken about any girl the way he speaks about you. That’s all I can say.”

His revelation brought a bit of relief to me, but that wasn’t the only thing I wanted. “What does he do at the club then? Peddle drugs? Fuck some sick girls, watch and take part in orgies, have some girl suck him off…”

Maxine pulled the second piece of my soundproof headpiece completely off. “Stop torturing yourself. It’s not worth it.” He chastised. “Tell me, do you have anything planned throughout your stay here?”

“I’m going to take your advice. Enjoy myself while wrecking little havoc here and there. Just so y’all don’t forget I exist.” I told him.

“You are impossible to forget, no matter how hard anyone tries. And your plan sounds fun. Let me know whenever you need my help with extra wreckage.”

I smiled and nodded. He just identified himself as an ally. Another small win, in the bag!

HOLLIS

I could never regard myself as a righteous man. My sins are like dark-scarlet. But I have some beliefs in life, things I hold sacred.

Like my family, taking care of my neighborhood and there was the sanctity of marriage. I have no delusions when it comes to such situations. Ugo’s consent to get married to me had been outrightly forced. I made her understand that she had no say and I meant it.

Either way, I would have found a way to push marriage into our arrangement. But It was a good thing my dear mother made it way easier for me. I had been attracted to the gorgeous girl since the very day I set my eyes on her. I’ve never believed in love at first sight, but that was my case when I saw her in front of a restaurant in Fairview.

A new judge had taken up my cousin’s case and I was trying to catch a glimpse of every tough-nut involved in the case. I literally stalked her for days with a plan to either threaten her or offer her money to step away from the case. A plan that went to ruin immediately I set my eyes on her.

When I attended one of the court hearings and watched her in her element. Her aura, grace and beauty stole my breath away and right there, I decided that nothing and no one would ever harm her.

With my identity hidden and several positive stuff about me updated on the Internet by Maxine, I tried getting close to her. I tried being her boyfriend but she pushed me away. A shock that I’m yet to get over.

When she won the court case and had my cousin, Morello sentenced for human trafficking, I was low-key proud of her. But when Morello got murdered in prison, and murder attempts were made on her life, I realized I had to act fast or I’d loose the very woman I’ve ever been attracted to.

Well, even with all these, I know I should have allowed her make a choice without hanging the life of her loved ones on the line. But I was desperate, desperate to see her live.

There were other options I could have adopted, but I chose the one that would keep her close to me and I don’t really give a fuck what anybody had to say.

Some people might find my method crude and believe it’s not how things work. But who cares. As I had anticipated, Ugo didn’t appreciate the situation. But I was hopeful that in time she would learn to feel a connection toward me.

And the physical and sensual part of the relationship I had once sort with her would begin.

‘And what if she doesn’t come around?’

Well, I hope she would because I believe in the sanctity of marriage, in the vow you make to not only your partner but God, it meant I couldn’t fuck around anymore. And with the willful woman I have to live with, I had a feeling my balls were going to either be permanent blue or it would take a while before I would get any relief.

But that’s a choice I’ve decided to make. It is also why I’d gone ahead to let my ex-escort suck my dick last night before the wedding as it might be the last release I would get for a while that wouldn’t be done by my own goddamn hands.

The possessiveness in Ugo’s tone rang in my head. I smiled, loving every bit of it as it made me believe that I did stand a chance after all.

Even if she made that statement because she was disgusted by the picture she created in her head, I figured that one day she might make the statement because of she was jealous of sharing me with other women.
