Stalked by the Mafia Boss

“Damn it!” Ade groaned, he just had to see his best friend make a complete fool out of himself and worse of all Jace still stood there looking like a lost sheep his hand still out and the girls were laughing at him, at them.

‘Men be wilding’ Korina had to agree with this saying as she laughed, who in the hell walks up to a woman and says ‘I wanna marry you please say yes.’

“I won’t marry you”. She scoffed and turned to drag Anne and Daniella away as she left so they wouldn’t make issues worse for her.

“Wait.” The strange crazy guy Jace called after her, “you haven’t even gotten a chance to know me yet.”

Korina laughed at his statement, “Well wasn’t I supposed to know you before a proposal.”

“Dip shit.” She scoffed still dragging her laughing friends towards the tables, she needed food and cake.

“What the fuck were you thinking.” Ade face palmed himself in frustration, “you just made a total and complete fool of yourself and a bad impression too.”

“I don’t know… I… tr… i…” Jace was even bewildered at his own actions, “When I got there, I couldn’t quite control myself and everything I had practiced flew out the window.”

“Well, at least you didn’t forget your name.” His best friend rolled his eyes, “You have to try again.”

“I can’t, no I can’t.” He shook his head, “Maybe some other time.” He looked in the direction of the girls, they were eating, chatting and laughing now probably at his stupidity.

“You would go there are try again.” Ade insisted, “Fucking man up, you sleep with guns by your bed side for fucks sake.”

Try again? Phew, Jace sighed.

“Men truly are unbelievable.” Korina was speaking to her friends, “Really he wants to marry me?” She giggled.

“Well, Korina you shouldn’t have insulted him tho, the dude surely looked really not at all composed and somewhat scared.” Anne sipped from her wine glass and placed it on the table, “Dip shit was uncalled for.”

“Yea, I know right.” She agreed, “In my defense I was irritated and angry and I am not going to apologise.” She said making herself clear before they forced her to.

“What just happened has got to be the most hilarious moment of this year apart from when I pulled Brian’s hair out.” Daniella laughed, “I mean the dude looked like he could get on his knees if he had a ring at the moment.”

“Men, truly be crazy, who walks up to a stranger and asks them to marry him?” Korina asked no one in particular, “Let’s get over and done with this wedding, I am tired, I swear.”

“Look at the bright side.” Her cousin spoke and Korina knew that whenever Daniella said look at the bright side, she was about to say something utterly dumb, stupid and would probably piss her off, “At least you got more customers.” She shrugged.

“Oh, she’s right about that.” Anne chipped in.

“Really, oh wow.” Korina beamed, “You know Dan, this is actually the first time you have said ‘look at the bright side’ and really said something reasonable.”

“I don’t blame your stank ass.” Daniella growled jabbing her Cousin’s elbow.

“Hmmm.” Anne moaned as she put a piece of cake in her mouth, “Korina, you really did a great job, this cake is mmm-tastic.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Mmm-tastic, is that even a word?” Korina asked and they all laughed.

“Oh, that reminds me.” Anne dropped her fork, “Can you make like four dozen mini cup cakes for me?” She asked, “I need them at work, don’t know when exactly tho.”

“Absolutely.” Korina replied, “Just tell me when and where and then we would discuss further on the price and all.”

“No problem babe.”

“Korina.” Daniella called her cousin, a mischievous smirk on her lips.

“Yea.” She rolled her eyes.

“Can you make a cake for me?” Daniella asked, “A big ass gigantic one?”

“Yes, I can.”

“For free tho.”

“I could kill you for free too.”

Anne laughed as she watched their exchange.

“On a more serious note, that Jace lander is a hottie.” Daniella said.

“I totally agree with you on that.” Anne smiled, “He is a pleasing sight to behold.”

“When you guys are done drooling over a dumb ass, then you can talk to me.” Korina snorted, she still didn’t find anything attractive about him and she wasn’t sure she would ever, he was dumb and she didn’t deal with dumb people.

Time was passing slowly, real slow and Korina was getting irritated by the moment.

Soon she was left alone at the table, Anne and Daniella had left and she had to stay back cause not only did she bake the cake, she was kinda part of the catering department too and the bride’s mother insisted on her stay.

As she sat there, bored with her idle mind, her thoughts ran back to Jace lander, she hadn’t seen him after that incident and she laughed remembering his words, men are so dumb and funny, She sighed.

“Hi.” She was pulled back to reality by an all too familiar voice, she looked up and Jace was standing there in front of her, he didn’t look nervous as the first time, what the hell does this man want? She rolled her eyes.

“Can I sit with you?” He asked, she only nodded looking at him skeptically, her gaze full of suspicion.

Jace pulled out the seat and sat on it, he laid his arms out on the table rubbing his thumbs together unsure of what to say next and he still felt her uneasy stare on him.

“I am sorry.” He blurted, “I am really sorry for what I did.”

“Uh… uh.” She nodded at him not reducing her harsh gaze, “And?”

“I was carried away, too excited and nervous.” He explained, “I actually don’t know what got into me.”

“It’s okay.” She said hoping he’d leave already, “I never really expected less, you men are crazy.”

Jace gave a light nervous laughter.

They got silent for a while none of them knowing what to say next.

“They look good together, don’t they?” Jace asked her, he noticed her eyes wouldn’t leave the couple on the dance floor and he couldn’t help but stare at the couple too, he wanted that, he wanted what they had with the beautiful woman in front of him.

“Yes, they do.” She sighed, “And they are lucky to find love, really lucky.” Her heart ached at their happiness, as she watched the woman laugh genuinely at what her husband bent to whisper in her ear.

“Would give anything to be that happy with someone who loves me.” She said absentmindedly.

Jace heard her and he wanted to tell her that they could be that happy together, but he knew he couldn’t say so, things would go wrong and that he did not want.

He watched her as she still stared at them, he took the opportunity to admire her beauty, her shiny dark skin, nice nose and all and then he said the next thing that came to his mind.

“Korina.” He called and she turned to him.

“What man?”

“Wanna dance?”
