Doted On By The Mafia Boss novel Chapter 35

The following day when he met her again he couldn't resist her; when she touched him he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen which was both pleasant and peculiar for him. He couldn't take his eyes off her; the more he saw her the more he feared that his emotions for her were not normal and the comments were rather true.

Was he... Really in love with her?

When he was with her he felt like forgetting everything and just being with her, nuzzled in her company. His young heart was blossoming with a beautiful emotion. It was hard for him to accept this and till lunch, all of these worries were churning in his heart; the worst kind of feeling in the world was the one that is left unknown.

Ryan finally gave up denying everything; he liked her, he did like being with her and wanted to protect her all his love. He started to accept this fact and even if he had some doubts about it everything vanished into thin air when they had a heart-to-heart in her room.

When he saw her cry and sob about being lonely was when he realized how important was she to him; his heart, which won't even react to the sounds of gunshot and death, was aching when he saw her cry.

That was the very moment he accepted his emotions and vowed to himself- he was gonna be with her forever and never let her be lonely again. When he said she had him he meant it, he had already given his heart to her and was willing to give himself to her completely.

Ryan till today was only living for himself, with no dreams to achieve and no wish to fulfill he lives the life of a rock- with no purpose at all. But today, in her tear-filled eyes, he saw the true meaning of his breathing; he finally realized why he took form on this Earth- it was to love and cherish her.

Ryan's eyes which were lost in mellow fantasies slowly blinked to reality. Even though his face was as straight as possible his features were a little soft and tender than usual.

He said firmly, "I am gonna be with her forever." Jack kept his hands on his shoulders and asked, "Ryan, do you like her?" Ryan kept mum but the corner of his lips did curl up a bit as he turned away to face the other side. Jack sat there shocked unable to swallow the intel, his bro was in love already.

He pin-pointed, "But she is just a kid... She won't even understand what you are saying to her."

Ryan folded his hands and stated his mind, "I am not an idiot to confess it now and scare her away. I will be by her side and protect her silently until she gets to the age and understands it on her own. I will wait patiently for that day when she will be capable of reciprocating my feelings for her, I can't lose her."

Now, how his father managed to marry such a woman of beauty and virtue remains a mystery and neither did the boy bother to know. Ryan obediently nodded before saying, "I am sorry, I made you worry but she really needed me with her."

"But does this mean you stay out and risk it? You know who we are, how many rivals we have. One word, if one word were to leak out that you were straying in the streets this late at night you would have been hunted down like a mouse. Do you understand me, you unfilial son of a...?"

"Hubby!" Before the man could finish his sentence the man Evania stopped him; the man took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. The room was embraced by dead silence with the temperature heating up and turning slightly suffocating. Ryan had his head hung for a while before he lifted his eyes to meet them with his dad. He spoke out, "She is important to me, dad."

"Why? Who the heck is she to you?" The man was on the verge of bursting a vein out of anger as he angrily demanded. Ryan's eyes turned visibly soft yet determined; who was he to her, can he simply answer that he saw her as his entire life?

The boy nodded his head; this wasn't the right time and his parents won't understand his poetic feelings either. He leaped off his seat and headed back to his bedroom before saying, "I will tell you eight years later."
