(Mafias Possession) Book 1: Three Ways In One Journey

Chapter 21

(Julie)

It's been two days since I have woken up and I am still here because I cannot walk yet .
That damn gangsters shooted me two times on my left leg and one time on my lower abdomen.

My parents are quite wealthy and they live in another country while I live in America for studies.

Yet, I haven't seen anything this much luxury.

And the man who saved me is quite rude and cold but he saved me that means he is not heartless at all.

I haven't seen him till that day when he was acting strangely.
He was quite angry when I told him that he can't touch me.
Now, I wonder why would he be angry .
It's not like he was my nurse!
I laughed at my own thoughts.
How Interesting.

I have to speak with him but he hasn't come to see me till that day .
First I thought I should leave this room and search for him but as lazy as I am right now .
All I wanna do is rest .
It's not all day when you get injured and got to rest .
It's almost dinner time and the maid who delivers dinner to me would be here any minute.
I have decided against my wishes that I will go and talk with him .
It's unlikely of me to stay in someone else's home for this much long and on that use his hospitality.

It feels as if I am taking advantages of him .
An evil smile reaches my lips and I laughed at my own thoughts.

The door to my room opened and here comes my awaiting guest with dinner in her hands.

"Stop right there and I will not eat dinner in this room today .
I will eat with everyone else.
Take me to them "

I tell her or more like ordered her politely.

She looked up at me with fear filled eyes .
Have I done something wrong?
I asked myself at her expression.
"You mean you will eat dinner with King " She asked in a light fear filled tune .
And I looked at her confusedly.
Must be his Name .
I said to myself while nodding.
"B-But m-mam he discuss important matters with his men on dinner a-and he doesn't like anyone interrupting"
She stuttered and looked down.
Now,this is getting on my nerves.
"I AM HIS SPECIAL GUEST!
Now, help me or else"
I said and she gulped.
Like what is her problem?
First the King thing and then the fear in her .
Something is wrong .
This whole mension feel cursed.
She approached me and then helped me down stairs and into dining room.
There is this change of atmosphere that I don't like .

When I entered ,I found him with three other figures.
They all look like friends.
They all stopped doing what they were doing before and look at me.
The maid gulped and I rolled my eyes at her fear .
I am going to find out why everyone behaves like this in this mension.
She helped me to sit down in one of the empty chairs and left or more like ran away .

"What are you doing here?"
He asked and his tune give me a massage that he didn't like me here .
"I don't like speaking bullshit .
So , I will be straight"
I said while looking in front of me at the table but I can feel all their eyes on me .
"You helped me that day and I am grateful for your hospitality.
I am glad and I would like to repay you .
So ,tell me how can I do that "
I said with straight and firm voice that speaks business.
I looked at him and he was looking at me amused and his three friends were trying to contain their laugher.
I banged my fist on the table and they all pulled out their guns and pointed it at me .

"You think I am kidding.
You think I am blind enough to not realize the change in atmosphere.
The fear in everyone eyes.
The guns everyone of you hold !"
I said with gritted teeth and looked at him .
His eyes still shows amusement.
"I never get to know your name "
I said and sipped from my glass of water.

"Believe me baby girl .
You don't like to know my name "
He said and crossed his hands on the table in front of him.
All of his friends sat back and listened to us .
"Oh, that's so Ian Xander ?"
I replied calmly and sipped once again.
All of them except him again looked at me,while clutching their guns in hands .
His eyes widened for a minute but he was fast to replace it with amused expression.

"You observe alot baby girl .
It's not good for you ".
He said and moved back making himself comfortable in his chair.

" I don't think so Ian but do you know who I am ?"
I said and smirked.

The tension hung low in the atmosphere and his lips twitched.

"No Julie I don't know a single thing about you except that you are a boxer "
He said and smirked at me like he has won the lottery.
"You really don't know about who I am then "
I replied calmly and serve myself some food .
"You think " he said and started eating his own .
"I have guessed that your parents would tell you about your future husband"
At his words my eyebrows knitted in confusion.
"Don't try to manipulate me .
After all I am leaving after dinner"
I replied and started eating.
"You think ? I would let my future wife go ,when there are only two days left in our marriage."
He said and I was silent.
Confused as to what is happening.
He tapped on his chin and then said
"Well I think I should because it will be good .
Well in that case my driver will drive you home and you will find your parents.
They have come to America just to tell you about a stupid contract in which they have sell you to me .
Wife "
He said and left.

While I was frozen.
"Stop"
I said when he was about to leave the room and to my surprise he stopped and looked at me .

"How much ?" I asked
He looked at me and then chuckled.
"It's not about money baby girl .
My father helped him when we were young and in return they tied us together"
He replied and left .
This time I didn't stop him because there is something I must ask my parents first!

I stood up and hissed in pain but nonetheless walked outside and I found a car waiting for me .
I onced again looked back at the mension and found him looking at me while smoking from one of the third floor window.
I clunched my fist and sit inside.
The moment I sit inside the driver start the car and drove off.
