Mafia Love Affair: From One Night To Forever

Samuel was revolving his chair while reading the papers that Giovanni had sent to him for review when his assistant Oliver came in to his office after getting his permission. 'Any update?' he removed the papers from his face and inquired from his man.

'Yes, Ms. Banner is living with Mr. Martini along with her friend and boys' the grip on his teeth tighten as the thought of her near Alessandro was enough to irk him.

'What else?' he slumped the stack of papers in the desk showing off his disdain, Oliver closed his eyes but did not dare to retract from his position.

'She has resumed her work form today' his jaw was throbbing, he had to do something fast before they both get involve in each other, the twins were currently biggest threat for him, he wanted to get rid of them the day they kidnapped them but Giovanni insisted to keep them alive as they would play a key role in crumbling down Martini group.

Samuel dismissed Oliver and was now thinking about how to get back to her, Clara could be a great help in this process but for it he first has to get her near Alessandro, his hands intertwined and was tapping the fingertips of index together while he was fully engrossed in finding out the way for mending his relation with Autumn.

A cold sigh escapes his lips and he ruffles his hair anxiously.

'I should give it a try' picking up his phone he extracts her number from the list and dialed it, resting his head with the back of the chair, his foot was continuously tapping on the tiled floor until the call was answered. 'Hello?' he jerked up when heard his soft and hesitant voice.

'Autumn' he called his name and was sure that she would recognize his voice, but to his shock, she did recognize and in result quickly cut the call. Samuel slapped his palm on his face, what was he expecting after what he had done to her whether it was about four years ago or just couple of days ago, shaking his head he stood from the chair to walk towards the only window in his office, the view from his room was of the back side of the building where there were many stalls of food that employees prefer to buy their lunch from, slowly the crowd was increasing he tilted his head while watching the employees of different companies gathering here, an idea popped in his mind and he turned his head to check the time on the clock.

'She will also be out for the lunch' he mumbled and snapped his finger, it could be his chance to see her and plead her to listen to him, not wasting any time he put on his blazer and rush from his room to take the elevator as fast as he could and reach to the location of Alessandro's office, no matter how much he despised that place he had to go for the sake of her.

Autumn furiously entered in to her department and found it empty realizing it is already the lunch time.

'Great! Now I have to go alone for the lunch' she was not in good mood after her meeting with Alessandro, no matter how much she tried to be formal with him considering they were in office and talking about work, that jerk had to ruin her all efforts in just one go.

Climbing down from the stairs she keeps the cursing on Alessandro going until she reached to the main gate of the building, stepping out she inhale the air and freshen up her mood and lift off the meeting from her mind.

The cold breeze touched her soft and supple skin, she shivered but enjoyed the moment too after taking few deep breaths she starts walking towards the stall she knew all her colleague would be gathered but halted when all of sudden he came in front of her, she grinds her teeth, these men were getting on her nerves, without uttering a single word she scoots on her right to pass on but he did the same causing her to stop again. 'Leave' she snapped.

'I want to talk to you' she narrowed her eyes and sneered.

'But I don't want to, now please move away' her teeth were tightly clenched over each other that it starts to ache on her cheekbone.

'Autumn, just for once listen to me' he pleaded holding her by shoulders, a scorn made its way on her face and she removed his hands from her body.

'Keep your hands off of me' she said sternly, Samuel fisted his hand.

'Okay, I will not touch you but can we talk please' seeing him not going away, she sighed in annoyance.

'Fine, follow me' she turned to go to café instead as there would be no one who knows her, so it would be safe for her to sit with him around the same table.

'Hey, we can go somewhere that would be quiet and had less crowd. I know a place that is close to your company, we will be back before the time ends' seeing her parting her lips to make an excuse he immediately assured her that he had considered everything before offering.

'It's not like you will listen to me when had already made up your mind, let's go I don't have enough time' Samuel smiled on his success, though it shouldn't be counted as one but for him it was.

Autumn came out of his car and read the sign board, it was the famous restaurant in this neighborhood, known for his traditional dishes with unique tastes and combination of somber and bright interior attracts its customer differently. 'It is really a great place, have you ever come here to eat?' walking with her side by side, they entered in to the restaurant.

'No' she said with straight face.

'Oh, no worries, today you will have a try and definitely will enjoy it. I even reserved the table' he was talking nonsense continuously only to make her smile or either feel happy but he was receiving the poker face in return only.

Alessandro was having a meeting with his client, sitting on the corner side table gave him an ample view of the floor and he was able to watch people coming in or going out of the place, but when his eyes caught Autumn entering with none other than Russo, many creases formed on his forehead yelling about his displeasure.
