Quinn's POV
I made myself comfortable at the VIP lounge, my drink in my hands as a stripper was dancing in one of the poles while Delvin was finishing some business with the shit he left to run his club. Delvin pursued me to come with him so I could try to refesh my mind with all this Mia situation but I just can't all I think about is when I go to my house is her irritating voice.
I came in London for business but she had to follow me because of the annual ball that Luciano invited us. To say the truth am in no mood for those shitty things but because am already here why not go. If I don't go Audrey will definetely give me an earfoul because of not attending cousin's Matteo party and now that am staying for a month or more in London to finish some business I don't know if I will survive seeing Mia's face.
I twisted my watch slightly checking what time it is and see its 3 am, that's funny I was so sure that Mia would start harassing me with her non stop missed calls. Just in queue my phone starts to ring an I see her name flash on the screen. I don't want my mood to intensify from bad to worse remembering I had to kill one of my most trusted because of betrayal. I just hate that word, it brings more harted in my heart.
"Let me guess, its your loving fianceè." Delvin mocks me, pouring himself a drink as he sat down. He smirks again as he hears my phone ring again which I just ignore wanting to crash it immediately. "My request is, you don't crash your phone again. Its not fun restoring everything in a new phone for you." Alex enters the lounge a young brunette at his side as he sat down.
"Well that's your work, isn't it?" I asked him playfully and he scowls at me pulling the girl on his lap. "No, it was my brothers" the words came tumbling from his tongue before he realised what he said. Gill was killed for protecting me in an attack I heard in Atlanta, an year ago.
I was there searching for any leads because it was the last place Kater was with her father and after that she dissapeared. We were attacked by the Russian mob, I don't know how they knew I was even there but the point is Gill died when he took a bullet for me. I would be the one who was six feet below in which I would have been happy because I would go where Kater was except she would be in heaven while I was in hell but all the same I wouldn't be living this miserable life.
Gill was one of the my most trusted men and the closest friend I had and losing him was a bit hard to adapt without him and Alex being his brother and also a good killer he took his brothers place being my right hand man.
My phone rung once again but this time she canceled it and instead sent a message.
'You know what? Am not going to waste my whole night for you but am warning you don't even dare to try wake me up when you come.
~Mia'
"Damn she got you hard there" Delvin barked out a laugh after he read the message that Mia sent me and I immediately get up throwing the phone to the ground. She just makes me furious. Am even having seconds thoughts about marrying her, she's like a mold that is always stuck up to me. She just can't leave me the fuck alone.
I see the stripper jump a little from my reaction but she just continues to do what she was doing to that pole. I run my hands through my hair, sitting down and immediately downed my drink. "Not all of us are destined to marry our loved ones." I mocked Delvin and they all burst into laughter.
"Leave alone my love life, first look at your pathetic life. That woman is like a snake hiding under a rock. She always knows how to strick" I rubbed my temples with frustration thinking of how my life is just complicated with her being around me. I have known Mia since we were teenagers, she was heartless in her way, emotionless sometimes and even hard headed. She was just right for this world but I didn't notice how crazy she is.
Anytime I see her, I just wanted to snap her neck but then again which woman have I ever tolarated except for my sisters and Kater. Maybe am just being dramatic and this is how all couples go through. Sometimes I even compare myself with Delvin.
He got engaged to Chloe two months ago and now they are even setting up a date when they should be married. Truthfully, I should have already been married to Mia because I proposed to her one year ago but with all this rackess that has been happening we didn't find the right date but she wants us to get married within five months at the least.
Delvin got the chance to be with the woman he trully loved but me I feel like all of this is just like a business deal.
"You know I brought you here to have fun not be a sloppy man on a lounge." Delvin complained as I was removing my cigar from pocket ready to light it up. "Boss, you should really have fun, there really hot bitches around here," Alex said eyeing the girl on his lap and she giggles kissing his cheek.
"Am not in the mood and am an engaged man just like you Delvin" I pointed out and he rolled his eyes plopping his feet on the table, "am an engaged man but am not pathetic like you. I mean you run the most dangerous Mafia mob in America and your sitting on your ass not enjoying what life gave you. Chloe satisfies me but you, you even need thousands of women to get out of that pathetic life." He said dramatically and I only shoke my head getting up.
"Where are you going?" Delvin asked as I rolled up my sleeves and I see Alex getting up too, "am just getting some air, Alex you can stay I will tell you when I need to leave." Alex nodded his head sat back down.
I might be a mob boss but even I have values and even if Mia is such a pain in my ass, I can't just betray her and sleep with other women. Kater showed me how to truly respect women and I don't want to do anything that she was done by Jax and when I proposed to Mia I knew exactly what I was getting into.
I stood at the lobby leaning against the stair rails as I watched everyone at the club enjoy themselves. All you could see are strippers just dancing for sloppy men most of them old. I puff some smoke from my mouth and I see a slut come to my way ready to pounce on me.
The lady came to my side and I narrowed my eyes for her, "what do you want?" I growled and she chuckled nervously, "would you like a drink, sir?" I looked down at her. "No. Now get the fuck out of my face." I said bluntly which earned me a look of shock. She gulped as she pulled her hand out and tried to grab ahold of mines. I snatched my hand away. "I don't care if they've paid you. Now leave." I growled deeply.
"Luke! Take her, you can do anything with her" I called out to one of my men and he immediately took her from me. She's lucky I speared her life. This place is even intoxicating me, being in another's persons territory is really uncomfortable, you never know when things can go wrong. I just don't like a place that I don't know like the back of my palm.
When am about to move from the rails so I can go back to the lounge, someone captures my attention. I can't see her well due to the dim lights but her features just remind of someone, the only difference is that she has short hair. I see a man slid to the stool next to her and immediately I feel an urge to just tear him apart, piece by piece.
I haven't felt this kind of urge for so many years and now am feeling for a person I don't even know let alone not really seen her. I see her body become rigid a little before she finaly faced the man and that when I saw a glimse of her.
Her big brown eyes were all mischevious as if she wanted to do something that the man wouldn't like. The same eyes that Kater had, the ones that made my heart melt immediately when I got sight of them. When am about to see her face completely someone blocks my view and I cursed under my breathe noting that he will surely get some beating to it.
I make my way down stairs in a hurry not to lose sight of her and I see everyone than comes in my path immediately regrets it and scurry off from me. They all know that am a reputated and respect man so they know better than to get in my way.
When I finally get the sight of her and see the man trying to stop her which she immediately twisted his hands a little and began whispering something to that man. I watched the man's feature turn into pain then anger and immediately I felt the urge to butt in a beat him up for trying to touch her.
She lets go of him, flip her hair from her face and that's when I got see her. She looked as beautiful as the first day I had met her. Her strawberry blonde that is now dark brown, short and beautiful. It took everything in me not explode in happiness as I watched her smirk at the man who was now reddening in anger.
My jaw trembled and my legs shook with every memory and emotion I have felt inside. My heart beat faster than before as I saw her run off to the ladies washroom. I will have to take care the that cunt later right now I have to find out if my eyes were just deceiving or if my Kater is truly alive.
I felt my heart stop for a second as I thought of my hope will once again be shuttered if am truly being oblivious. I followed her faster as she disappeared into the restroom and immediately opened the door looking for her.
I looked at all sides but I don't see anything. The place is empty no one is here but before I could take another step I felt someone sweep there legs under mine making me to loose balance and fall on the ground. I turn around trying to wake up but someone tackles me up throwing their legs both sides of my waist.
What the fuck is happening?
I try to jack up but groan from how have hit my head and feel something cold pressed painfully against my neck. How could I loose my focus and let someone just tackle me to the ground. I snapped my eyes opened because they unconciously closed and see her flip her hair from her face as her eyes went wide when she saw me.
I stared into her beautiful brown orbs. They were the color that made my life seem like it weighed nothing, the hue of the most beautiful things on earth and the reason why I live.
The moment I raised my eyes to hers, I felt my entire world crashing down on me. She looked at me with so much feeling and longing, I felt as though I could die right there. I didn't care if I was smiling like a lunatic right now, all I knew is that she's her with me.
I brush some of her hair from face locking some as I caressed her soft skin as felt her warmth radiate to mines. I watched her pouty lips curving into a small uncertain smile as she leaned to my touch and how she looked so beautiful with her big brown eyes while they were wide.
True beauty is something so rare in this world. Kater was stunning, but it was the beauty she held in her heart that could bring a man to his knees.
I smiled softly at her, and she hesitates.
I knew she was begging for me to tell her something. If only I could tell her all the things racing my mind.
I wanted to tell her that I knew her favorite words, her favourite drink and the way she unintentionally bit her lip whenever she was deep in thought. I wanted to hear her bubbly, contagious laugh. I wanted to tell her how I missed her and that I loved her but all I could do was just smile like a fucking lunatic.
I watched her shaky hands move to my forehead ready to brush off some of my hair but she immediately went rigid and looked up as she heard the door being opened. She removes the knife she pressed against my neck and threw it backwards before I heard someone groan.
In one swift move she grips my gun from my waistband before she turned her butt slightly brushing against my crotch making it to twich a liitle becoming a little hard.
Fuck even in different situations she still makes me hard.
She shot two gun shots and I raised my head a little seeing she has shot a man right in the head and on his chest as he fell down to the ground. I looked at her confused not remembering if she even knew how to hold a gun. How did she even get the courage to kill someone? And why did she kill that man?
Everything is making me have a headache. She is a woman of surprises but I didn't think she could ever surprise me like this. She looks back at me and I looked at her perplexed but I saw her cheeks turn rosy pink when she got off me. God, she looked more pretty when she blushed.
I smirked a little getting up and making myself comfortable by leaning on the wall as I watched her inspect the dead man. She kicked the man's gun from him before she squated beside him pushing the knife deeper in the man's chest before she twisted it and pulled it off.
If it were in any other scenario I would have laughed for her actions, its as if the man can come back to life that's why she has done that. She wiped the man's blood from the knife with his clothes and moved his head with the knife shaking her head. I wonder who she killed and why she killed him? Is it the same people who took her?
She got up, sighing heavily and faced me pointing the gun at my head. I looked at her spectically wanting to know what she's thinking and why she's raising a gun towards me. Have never been afraid of dying and if I will die with the hands of the woman I love so be it.
I looked at her daring her to do it but its as if she's lost in her thoughts. Her eyes seem cold and distant as she looked at me, she didn't have the same spark in her eyes like she used to. She seemed sad, lonely and bitter.
She clenched her jaw before she flipped the gun to the butt and handed it to me, "thanks, for the gun." Her voice was also distant and void but I didn't miss how it made my heart skip a bit because I finally got the chance to hear her once again.
Our fingers grazed a little and immediately felt the spark between us. That beautiful sensation that have never felt for anyone else. She moved her hands faster turning her back to me as she faced the dead man and the pool of blood that flowed from his body.
She walks over him her face twisting in disguist as she eyed him and took a picture of him ready to go but I managed to catch her before she left. I had so many questions for her, most of them still unanswered and its only her who can answer them.
"Kater, please don't leave." I plea to her and I see her pinch her eyes shut, clenching her jaw tightly as she lowered her head slightly, "Am not your Kater nor anything to you anymore. That Kater died the day you buried her." Her tone was cold but I could still hear the shakiness in her voice. I wanted her to look at me when she spoke but she only forced my hands away from her and immediately run away from her.
I couldn't think, I only ran after her but she managed to slip away before I could even find the exit. Its as if she knew this club very well. I walked out to the freezing breeze and heard a soft engine from far purr as I saw her ride away with her motobike.
My heart burned inside my chest knowing that have just lost her again, that might never see her again. It was the kind of pain that drowns you completely, the kind of pain you not only feel in your heart but in your mind and soul.
I looked around to see her crashed phone. Who is she even running away from? I felt helpless, I want to help her but she just dissapeared from me again, she just left me once again.
