The Queen of Mafia - 125 Love is terrifying

“Remind me again why am I suddenly in the private jet of yours and with you at that?” Aisha asked under her breath as her eyes was locked on the series of clouds in the sky as the whole sky turned scarlet as the sun makes its presence known.

“Because, my dear Ciana, you couldn’t resist my charm.” Lucian beams, his voice was filled with mirth and teasing as he smirk mischievously at her.

Aisha frowned at him. Although it was indeed a fact that he is a charmer despite his ice-cold appearance, she still couldn’t accept that she was easily seduced by him!

She still remembers that one time that she was offered with lots of men with different charm, starting from that cute school boy type to the most seductive man with eight pack abs and yet none of them has elicit such a feeling of… arousalfrom them.

She can’t believe that just one kiss from him, she could forget everything around her and be aroused to the point that she hasn’t reacted even when he carries her with both of her legs around his waist and her hands around his neck up to his private jet. She only became aware of her surrounding when the pilot ask them to put seatbelts and other instructions and informations.

If this is the cause of what is called love… then love is something that people should be afraid of.

Love is dàrn terrifying.

“Shut up,” a pathetic comeback came out from her mouth. “Where are we going by the way? And why should I be with you?”

“Because you’re my—” Lucian looks like he was going to make an another teasing remark when he was shut up by Aisha’s menacing glare. Lucian gulped and replied, “Because Costas asked me to take you away with somewhere… peaceful. Where you can have a break from everything and coincidentaly, I am going to my birth country so I decided to bring you along.” He explained, his tone was no longer teasing. He felt a lump forming in his throat so he cleared his throat and smiles at her.

Meanwhile, Aisha’s chest tightens when she heard Lucian’s words. “Costas also told me to not worry about Augustus and the Sutton famiglia, he will handle it for you.” Lucian added.

“Hmm, I see.” Aisha hums as she closes her eyes. She didn’t have enough sleep last night and now, she is suddenly feeling the urge to sleep. If it was before, no matter how dead tired she was, she will not sleep in the presence of other people.

But this isn’t just any person, it is Lucian and she knows he won’t do any harm to her.

Lucian saw her sighs tiredly so he pulls her head on to rest it against his shoulder. Her sweet scent tease his nostrils as he breathed heavily, her scent immediately calm his tense heart. He was really worried for her, especially when he hears what happened at the Inferno Bar and the Petrova famiglia, who is now ceased to exist in the mafia world.

He tried looking for her but Alfred stopped him, saying to let Aisha be alone for now. Lucian wasn’t dumb to not know that Aisha is upset but to what reason, that he didn’t know.

“Freohr left to Country N.” He suddenly blurted out.

Aisha was already dozing off to dreamland when she hears Lucian. Her body stiffens for a second before giving a short nod.

And how could Lucian miss the stiffening of her body? He could now guess what seems to upset his Ciana.

“You never told me about your plans,” he said softly, his fingers carressing her soft brown locks. “Sure, you emailed me about the private properties, business, and forces of the Cavelli famiglia, and my famiglia raid every single of those but you haven’t mentioned a word about your plan.”

Aisha was silent for awhile before she opens her eyes and look at him. “Do you want to know?” She asked.

Lucian shook his head and pulls her in a hug despite the seatbelts straining them. He couldn’t seem to stop himself from touching her, his body was always yearning to be near her. “I’m just afraid that you’ll put yourself in danger again.”

Aisha didn’t answer his question but she told him half of her plans, for the remaining part of it, she has no plans to tell him about it. She was sure as hèll that he will disagree with it.

“That’s why you’re upset,” Lucian concluded. “Because Kristen was found and Freohr might hate you if he will find out that you are the one who kidnapped her?”

Aisha nodded. “This is within my expectation, but I would be lying if I say I won’t be hurt if he really does hate me to the point of wanting me dead.” She chuckles in the end but Lucian found no humor in it.

“If he wants you dead then he will have to face me first.” He scoffed.

“Are you really siding with me rather than your own brother?” Aisha asked with a laugh.

Lucian stares seriously at her. “My dear Ciana, you’re more important than anyone else.”

Aisha pursed her lips but she couldn’t stop the smile forming in her mouth.

Skyler, who was in the far away cabin from them, has his mouth twitching in disbelief. He no longer recognize this Boss of his.

But one thing is for sure… he should’ve just stayed instead of being the lightbulb.

“We are now in the premises of Country F.” The pilot says through the intercom and once Aisha heard this, the smile on her face disappeared.

Country F… where she killed her mother…
