Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 386

His strong arms pulled me closer to him until our bodies were pressed together. His breath stirred the small hair around my ear. He’s so close…

“My love for you isn’t enough to save you from all pain and protect you from all danger. The best that I can do is to keep you locked up in the mansion although I know well that you don’t like it one bit,” Hayden whispered solemnly into my ear.

“Hayden…” I whispered his name as other words were robbed from me.

Why does he sound so sad?

“But I do love you and I’ll try my best to protect you no matter what. Even if it means that it will cost me my life, I will protect you,” Hayden said it like a promise.

I felt tears swimming in my eyes. Why would he say something like that?

“Please don’t do that…I don’t want you to get hurt…” I whispered back.

…or die…

“Don’t cry, stupid girl. Everyone is watching us…” Hayden said in a lighter tone when he finally let me go.

He looked down at me and smiled his princely smile that made my heart skip a beat. I would be happy to follow him anywhere and do anything if it meant that I could continue being by his side. Slowly, I reached up my hand and cupped his face. The warmth of his hand quickly enveloped mine as he placed his hand on mine. His face felt so warm, unlike the cold mask that he almost always wore.

“I love you...so much…” I managed to say while trying desperately to hold in my tears.

Hayden smiled down at me and his smile felt a little different from usual. It felt warmer and a little more carefree. Of all the smiles that he’s shown me so far, this one truly tugged at my heart, and I fell in love with this one the most. Hopefully, he’ll show me more of his smile now that things are more peaceful.

“Hayden!”

A shrilled cry pieced through the romantic atmosphere that we shared. I bit on my lower lip when I sensed that this wedding wouldn’t end without incident after all. We both turned towards the source of the voice to see a middle-aged woman dressed in bright pink standing up in the crowd of people. All the while, the woman continued screaming Hayden’s name as if she was dying to get his attention. She got more than his attention for sure, everyone in the church probably had their eyes on her at that moment.

Hayden’s hand tightened over mine and I felt the air around him turn cold. The smile that he had on his lips died and his face morphed into a cold and unreadable mask.

Who is that lady and what does she want now of all times?!

The next words that left her lips, changed our lives forever…

“Hayden! Amelia…Amelia has woken up! Please…please come see her!” the woman shouted directly at Hayden when she saw that she now had his attention.

Is this true? Amelia has regained consciousness.
