Mafia Love Affair: From One Night To Forever

'Hey Samuel, where are you going?', Samuel was done with his breakfast and was ready to leave for his office. It was normal for Russo brothers to not bother each other's absence at the time of breakfast, as all of them has different plans and they all leave their room according to their daily schedule. So, sometimes they all are together, but usually they all do their morning meal alone and leave for their work quietly.

Same was the case today, Giovanni and Salvatore were not present in the dining room, butler served him omelet with toasted breads, finishing it off, he was ready to leave and was going through the lounge towards the porch when suddenly out of nowhere Giovanni came in to the lounge and stopped him.

Samuel tilted his head and gave his brother a confused look, it was an odd question for him since none of them ever asked this in the morning as all know where the person is destined to at this hour.

'I asked where are you going my little brother?' this time Giovanni asked sweetly to him and slumped down on the cozy couch, placing his one leg over another, as usual the lit cigar was dabbed between his fingers and he was releasing the smoke after taking a long puff from it.

'To work, what else are you expecting?' he was thinking too much about Autumn and Alessandro being together that it has now affected his mood and making him cranky, the last night his fight with Clara and how she was behaving had told him that he couldn't rely on her solely about this matter, as she is a foolish woman who can ruin all his efforts at any point and he might lose if kept relying on her. Couldn't sleep properly in the night has made him grumpy and he was not in mood of dealing the lecture of his elder brother at this time.

'Aha, not in good mood? Missed your Autumn in the empty side of your bed at night?' Salvatore joined his elder brother and slumped next to him, not forgetting to teasing his brother with a wink of an eye. Samuel gritted his teeth. His brothers were unable to understand what Autumn meant to him, they were taking her as another girl he wanted in his bed and to spend some nights and then part the ways. Nevertheless, he did not make any effort to correct them, unless, he has Autumn on his side, he can't express his thoughts and intention to them. He knew what are his elder brother's main objective.

'Do you have to talk about something? I am getting late otherwise' Giovanni took a long puff and exhaled the smoke in the air, making the air smelled of cigar, not that it troubled anyone.

'We both are visiting someone and want you to join us' another puff was released and the way he was staring at Samuel, he understood that he does not have the ground of argument here.

'Can I know who is this someone?' Salvatore turned his head to look at Giovanni and at a curt nod of his head, he shifted back his stare on his younger brother.

'Angelo Martini' Samuel rolled his tongue to stop the awful words and swearings that wanted badly to escape from his mouth after listening to that name.

'I don't think you would have any objection meeting him, when you all alone went to meet Alessandro in his club' Samuel cleared his throat, he knew it is not easy to get save from Giovanni, although he did not say anything to him that night but he was prepared to be listening about this anytime when his brother would like to brought up and today was the day. Samuel exhaled a breath.

'You guys would need time to get ready, go ahead, meanwhile I am working from here' He pushes himself towards the couch were his brothers were already seated but he sat across to them and opened his bag to fetch out his laptop. 'Appreciated. Salvatore, let's go. We have to reach before that old man leaves his office' nodding Salvatore rushed towards his room, Giovanni glanced at Samuel, whose face was swollen, but he ignored it and followed Salvatore to get ready for this important visit. Samuel watched them leaving the lounge and shook his head, he hated that old man too but it would be first time he will be going with them to meet Angelo, his only brother-in-law.

Angelo Martini was looking at the pictures; Alessandro has sent to him about his family visit to his personal villa. Where he had assigned a photographer to keep his first family picnic a memorable for them. His face was gleaming seeing the heir of his blood line enjoying and happy. Alessandro had already told him about his feelings and plan of proposing to Autumn after his issues with Russo's and their enemy group in Italy settles down. He was content with his decision of finally deciding to settle down and starting his family.

The old man's eyes were brighter than ever, and he sighed in happiness when his mobile showed the incoming call from Alessandro, with sweet smile on his lips, he swipes the green button and connected the phone to his ear. 'I was looking to the pictures, Logan and Ethan had enjoyed a lot.' The old man couldn't hide his emotions and expressed immediately right after connecting the phone.

'Yeah, we all were happy and enjoyed' there was something in his son's voice which increased the creases on his already wrinkled face.

'Are you okay my Son?' Angelo asked him.

'Dada, I will ask you something and you will answer me honestly' Angelo knitted his brow, it was never like Alessandro talked to him this way ever before.

'Sure, go ahead' he closed the lid of his laptop and leaned back on his chair.

'What is Clara Peterson doing in my new office?' Angelo's eyes widened, he retreats from his position and rested his other hand on the desk, looking to the off white wall in front of him.

'The woman I wanted you to get marry?' Angelo tried to confirm.

'Yup' he affirmed and Angelo's face twitched.

'Don't you think you should ask this question from your HR department?' Angelo deadpanned.

'I did, and she said you are the one who hired her.' Alessandro was annoyed already, Autumn was upset and angry from her presence and the presence of that woman was already a question mark to him at first place. 'She is lying. Why would I hire her? I never intervene in your work related matters until you ask me to' Angelo rejected the claim.

'I know and that's why I was surprised, but the question still stands, why is she here, if not you and not me who hired her than why it is being said that you hired her and you know what else is being said about her?' Angelo shook his head. 'No, what else is it?'

'She is the future daughter-in-law of Martinis, as in my wife to be' Alessandro was very angry at this moment, he wished to land to Florida and bring that shitty woman in front of him and make her accountable.

'May be she has done this from her own?' Alessandro rolled his eyes at what his father has just said.

'Have you ever met her?'

'No, why?' Alessandro sighed.

'By judging the level of dumbness of that woman, I doubt she could plan this herself and had entered in my office without facing any trouble, specially using your name' Angelo made a fist of his free hand and rested it under his chin. They both were talking about this situation when Angelo's Assistant entered in the room and informed him of Russo Brother's.

'Not again' Angelo muttered, Alessandro was on the call and swiftly got worried.

'What happened?'

'Your favorite uncles are here to see me' Angelo exhaled an exasperated sigh and asked Alessandro to hang up the call so he can meet to them and see what had brought them here this time.
