Chapter 77

" Don't get involved in this war, Killian. " The one called Sam warned him, but he didn't look even a bit bothered.

" I was already involved in this war after all your brother decided to mess with my fiance and you of own people know that I don't like it if somebody tries to mess with the people I love." funny parties that I actually looked at him with the same amount of shock that the others were displaying.

I really do like to believe that Killian and l did love each other at some point, and l still do, but hearing him say it confidently in front of other people was heartwarming.

" Don't lie for them." I don't know why, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that Sam was a friend of Killian or somebody that once cared for him, and I possibly destroyed that.

" I'm not afraid of you Sam so I don't have it any reason to lie, I love Rosabella De Luca and she is going to be my wife which is why I would advise you to go and grieve your brother ,don't try me because you won't like what I'll do to you."

" You are even more dangerous than I thought. At first, it was my brother now, my friend." He said, but l didn't answer

Sam looked at Evan, who looked at the others, and they started retreating, but he stopped and looked at Killian.

" I guess this means the end of our friendship and our alliance." l took a deep breath when their cars drove further and further away from us.

Killian pulled me towards another car, and he looked Justin thought as the car started moving.

" You care about him." I was relieved that they let us be, but it was weighing quite heavily on Killian.

" I can only guess the horrific stories your brothers have told about me, but irregardless of all of that, I have good friends, and Sam was one of them." The guilt consumed me to a point where I felt like I couldn't breathe.

" Relax, breathe in, and breathe out." he said when he noticed my mini anxiety attack.

" l am so sorry, l didn't mean to ruin your life." I cried.

" Baby, I thought you grew out of the crying. if you are to be the queen of the Russian mafia, then you have to grow a thick skin." he said, brushing my hair out of my face with his hand.

" I thought you said that only to stop them from hurting me." l said, looking at him in surprise.

"It doesn't matter why l said it, but the bottom line is that l said it, and l have to keep my word or else we're dead meat and I quite like my life." He said, making me laugh even though l didn't want to.

"My brothers won't like this one bit." l said, imagining the looks on their faces.

" They'll get used to it."

" Yeah, I mean, we still have a few more years to go, so that's enough time for them to get used to having your as their brother-in-law." l said.

" I think you mean a few weeks because I've already announced already, and everybody will be expecting it to happen within the next few weeks." I was expecting him to laugh at the end of that sentence or at least tell me that it's a joke, but the way he looked at me showed just how serious he was.

" No, I don't care who kills me or whatever they do to me, but I'm not getting married to you in a few weeks." I've already taken away his friend from him, and I just can't take his freedom as well.

" I don't know what makes you think that you have a choice in this matter because you don't." Killian rarely showed his ruthless side to me, but the hard look I got from him almost made me shut up, but I didn't.

" Stop the car." I shouted at the driver, but he didn't stop. Rather, he looked at Killian for permission.

" we'll talk about this when we get to the house." he said, brushing me off, but I am sick and tired of being told what to do.

" Stop this car, or I will jump out." If he is stubborn, then he's about to see that I'm a lot more stubborn and I have a law degree to prove it.

" Stop the car." he said to the driver who immediately stopped, and I looked at him in disbelief.

" Was that really hard." I snapped at the innocent driver who got caught up in our fight.

" I'm sorry ma'am, but I don't take orders from you." he said, and I opened the door and got out of the car.

we were basically in the middle of a highway, but I couldn't care less.

" What is really bothering you about our marriage? You just agreed to give us a chance, but you don't want to marry me." Now Killian was also angry, and it was about to turn into World War 3.

" This is not about me. I can't take more of your life than I already did." l said, but he looked even more angry that I said that.

" Did you hear me complaining. I love you Rosabella De Luca and I'm willing to take any step to save your life and also spend the rest of my life with you but I can't do it if you are one foot in and one foot out.

You're either with me or you're not."
