ALPHA SNIPY– A VALIANT MAFIA LORD

“She’s slept for hours now Ariana. How long will it take for her to wake?” I heard Aiden’s voice whisper from afar off and I turned to see him walking around as if he was bothered.

“She will be awake soon Lord. You don’t have to be bothered” Ariana replied and looked at me but I blinked my eyes close so she won’t know I was awake. “But didn’t you warn her about the danger of drinking those wine?”

I waited for Aiden’s reply but it never came and I had to blink my eyes open to see if they were still there but they weren’t. “Where did they go? And what happened to me?”

“On a business deal” a voice whispered beside me and I jerked away in fright. “About what happened to you; we found you laying on the floor in Aiden’s house bar in between broken bottles.”

“Giovanni?” What are you doing here?” And how did you enter? Cause I didn’t see you walk in” I asked dazed.

“I’ve been here all along but you didn’t notice cause you’ve been focused on Aiden and Ariana. How do you feel now? Aiden has been so bothered and so have I.”

“I’m fine. I feel good, just a little headache. But what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be with Ariana? Or with them on the business deal?” I asked not having the strength for trouble.

“I came to see you” he breathed and held my hands.

I look behind us to be sure no one was watching. “To see me? But why? If it’s about my health then you should be going cause I’m fine.”

“You sound scared Snipy. What are you afraid of? I already told you they are out. And it’s not really about your health. It’s about something else.”

“I’m not scared ok? If you aren’t here cause of my health then what else?”

“I came to discuss something with you” he mumbled and bit his lower lip.

His action made me remember a movie I once watched where a guy bit his lip cause he was anxious. Wait! Giovanni is anxious? But why will he be?

“Are you anxious?” I giggled. “Great Giovanni is anxious?”

“Stop the pranks Snipy. Can we take a walk outside?”

“Nah, I can’t go out” I retorted remembering Aiden’s warning.

“But why? Do you know where you’re by the way?”

“Lord Aiden’s mansion. Isn’t that right?”

“Nope, you’re in the hospital. Aiden will soon come to pick you up.”

“Again!” I screamed and looked around. I sighed when I realized that I was really in the hospital but in a different ward.

He chuckled. “Not like we are the ones that told you to be stubborn. You are lucky you survived. We’ve lost stubborn babes so many times due to the same wine you drank.”

“Why will a wine that kills people be left in the bar?” I asked and rolled my eyes at him.

“I don’t have all the time in the world Snipy. Aiden and Ariana will soon be back. Can we go now? I need to say something.”

“Can’t you say it here? Must we take a walk?”

He ruffled his hair and bit his lower lip again looking so anxious but so cute.

“Fine. But better say something meaningful.”

He smiled and helped me stand. Intertwined our hands together and we walked out.

We walked for several minutes but yet all he did was ruffle his hair. I kept waiting for him to say a word but yet he wasn’t doing that and that made me stop.

“I’m not taking one more step, Giovanni. We’ve been walking for minutes now but yet you wouldn’t say anything. I’m tired. Let’s go back since you got nothing to say please.”

“I’m sorry. Can we sit on the grass over there?” He whispered so lowly as if he was afraid and it left me wondering what will make him be acting this way. I nodded after several minutes and he smiled.

We walked down to the little field and settled down but yet he wasn’t saying anything.

“Giovanni, what the fuck is this? How can you bring me this far but yet can’t say a word? You are getting me so pissed off.”

“I.. lo. ve y…,”

“When did you start stuttering?” I asked interrupting him. “You’re acting like a kid. Can you just say what you wanna say so we can go back?”

He looked into my eyes and rubbed my hands. “All I’ve been trying to say is that I love you Snipy.”

I stared at him not believing my ears or perhaps I’m just hearing things cause it can’t be possible. “What did you just say?”

“You heard me Snipy. I love you. And I want you to be mine.”

“Yo.. u.. c.. an’t… l. o. ve.. me… Gio.. v.. anni” I stammered.

“But why?” He asked looking at me.

“You just can’t love me” I sobbed. “It’s not just possible.”

“But I do Snipy. My body aches for you. I want you so badly.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

I looked at him and remembered Ariana. “But What about Ariana? I always saw you both together when I was on training.”

He snickered. Is that the problem?”

“Just answer me, Giovanni.”

“Ariana is just a friend and team partner. I don’t love her. It’s you I love. It’s you I want.”

“But she loves you. Why me?”

“Cause my heart chose you Snipy” he whispered and patted my cheek. “It’s you I love not her. I see the way you look at me. You love me right?”

I stood up from the grass and turned my back on him. How can I tell him that I hate guys? How can I tell him that guys irritate me? I’m so sorry Giovanni but I can’t date you.

“Snipy” I heard him call making me jerk back to reality.

“What?”

“I’ve been calling you for more than thrice now but you zoned off” he whispered and hugged me from the back. “What’s your reply? Is it a yes?”

I moved a bit far from him not turning feeling so bad for him but knowing that it’s for the best.

“I’m so sorry Giovanni but I don’t love you and can’t date you” I whispered and ran off.
