Married to the Mafia Boss

“Sir, dinner is ready, Do you want me to serve it in the dining room?” Paulina asked over the intercom.

Liam eyed Aurora’s naked legs jiggling down the bed while she was talking to her friend. She looked a little tense and Liam wondered why?

“Sir?”

“Send it to my room, Paulina.” He ordered and ended the call.

Liam needed to talk to Ethan but considering everything, he had to wait for a little more time. Liam went to Aurora to know what was worrying her?

“Why did you leave her alone, Em? Was she fine?” Aurora asked, worriedly.

“Yes, she is absolutely fine. She told me she wanted to be alone for some time so I didn’t push her to come to him with me. We both know her, Aurora. She would be taking out her frustration on a man somewhere. Calm down and focus on your man.”

Aurora sighed, “it’s just…” she started but stopped when she sensed Liam’s Presence behind her. “Keep me updated about her, please. I will see you in the office tomorrow,” Aurora said and ended the call.

“What’s the matter little one?” Liam asked, sitting beside her.

“Nothing.”

It happened so suddenly that Aurora didn’t even get the time to react. Liam grabbed her jaw, not harshly but neither softly. His grip was firm. “Aurora, I am a bastard, I have anger issues but I try to behave like a gentleman with you. I try to show you only the soft side of mine but now that we are together I want to tell you one thing and I want you to remember it till the end of my life,” Aurora’s eyes turned wide, hearing the darkness in his voice.

“Don’t. Ever. Lie. To. Me! I will give you the world but I will not tolerate any kind of betrayal from you and I consider you lying to me as a form of betrayal.”

Aurora gulped. “Leave me!” She mumbled.

Liam obliged and dropped his hand. Aurora stood up from the bed and went to the window. She didn’t like the way he treated her. She had suffered enough of this in her previous relationship with Gabriel.

Liam cursed himself in their mind for behaving so rudely with her. She was treated like a stupid princess all her life by her father and he showed his darkness like this. He closed his eyes and left a frustrating breath.

What a mess! Why can’t she behave like one of my other whore?

Because she is not a whore, she is born to be your queen!

He stood up and went to her. He frowned when he heard a soft sob from her throat. Liam ran a hand through his head and moved closer to her, holding her from the waist softly he pulled her in his arms. Her back touched his front.

“I apologise for that little one!” He whispered. Aurora went stiff in his arms and didn’t say anything. Liam turned her and found her looking down at his fingers. “I got angry for a moment, Aurora. I know I should control my emotions but when you lied to me I felt betrayed.”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Aurora inhaled sharply, she pushed him a little to create a space between them. She was right, she needed to have this talk with him. Better now than later.

“It was not a betrayal Liam. I didn’t want to tell you about my problem because I didn’t want to involve you in it and now that we are together in this relationship I want to be open about it from the start. I value my privacy a lot, and I want the same from you. If I am not sharing things with you please don’t force me to do. I love you, absolutely, but not more than my dignity and self-respect.”

Liam’s palms were twitching. He wanted to get her in his knees and spank the daylight out of her. “We are together, I will always respect your privacy but when you are in a problem I want to know. It’s my responsibility to take care of them. Even the thought of someone hurting you made me go berserk on that person Aurora. I am not coming in the way of your self-respect but you are stopping me from doing my duty, as your boyfriend and your husband.”

Aurora sighed. “I won’t tolerate you manhandling me, Liam. I will not tolerate it!”

Liam grabbed dye hand and pulled him closer. “I am trying to change myself for you, do you have any idea how hard it is. I was always an alpha male, always getting whatever I wanted but then I met you, the girl who didn’t care about me. I liked that about you, when you insulted me and my dad, I was engaged and wanted nothing else but to have you. You became my obsession Aurora and I didn’t even know when this obsession turned into Love. My heart started beating for you, the man who has the habit of taking whatever the hell he wants to, bow down on his knees in front of you. I waited like a fool for you to accept my love and now that we are together, I can’t describe the feeling in words Aurora. This is the depth of my life for you and when I saw you are tense, I wanted to do whatever in my power to help you but you lied and I burst out on you. So I apologise for you but this is the thing you have to accept about me,” saying that he left her hand with a jerk and walked outside the room leaving her alone.

Aurora was silent for some time. His words hit her like bricks. Hearing him she understood one thing, relationships can never work on the wishes of one person. She felt caged with Gabriel because he was trying to mold her according to him and now she was doing the same thing to Liam.
