I wasn't eavesdropping, I just happen to be passing through the hallway walking to my room when I heard them speaking.

Dad,

Emily gasped

You..you mean Alexander Costello...Like..like same Alexander, the Italian don, she said whispering the last part.

Yes my love, it is, Mother chuckled

But father, his face was blank as he spoke, like he wasn't happy about whatever it is that was happening.

Emily.....This man we are talking about is dangerous, i don't want you doing anything to anger him,

Be the good wife you are supposed to be cause fucking things up will be a great damage to my reputation......not only that....he can make this family vanish with just a wave of his hand

Father said in one breath like even speaking it out loud hurt him

I understand dad, I know what to do, who wouldn't fall for this face and body

Emily smiled as she twists a strand of her hair

"Emily is getting married?"

That was my first thought as I walked silently to my room to avoid getting caught

.....To Alexander King Costello......

What the.....

Who doesn't know Alexander Costello, the famous ice king.

Doesn't speak more than just a few words but makes sure those words are worshipped.

The hot Italian Mafia king

No one dare go against him not even the governments .....wow

I walked into the prison I called room as I locked the door behind me to avoid Emily barging in again like she owns the damn house,

well technically she does owns the house.

I've met Alexander once

That one time I was forced by father to attend the yearly busines annual ball.

It was just like I was present there at the same time I wasn't judging by the fact I stayed away from the spotlight and stayed in the shadows all through

I hated being noticed

He was far more than they describe

Rumours say he killed without mercy

He doesn't fall in love

He is a dangerous man

He is never to be offended

He will kill you in the blink of an eye

He control the government like his personal maid.....

That isn't what I saw, I saw a lot of things I can't explain in those eyes...

He has that kind of dazzling beauty that is out of this world

No..no...no, stop thinking of that shit, I don't have a crush on him.

Imagine that kind of man with deep blue eyes that could keep you entrapped forever.

With a jet black hair slicked back with gel with few strands falling in front of his face

With that kind of lips.....yeah...yeah... Let stop imagining now

But Emily getting married to him...?

That's like one of Emily's dreams come true
