Mafia Desire (Erotica)

46



“Are you serious?” my eyes widened. So, how did you end up working at that dinner where I first met you two?” I inquired.

“In order to avoid detection, we must pretend to live a normal life.” I apologize for keeping this from you, but we didn’t want to drag you into the criminal mess.” Jenny elaborated.

“No, it’s fine.” I completely comprehend. I just never imagined that all of my friends were involved in criminal activity.” I said.

“We love you and have never lied to you.” I hope you are aware of this.” Charis said this while bowing her head.

“Oh my goodness, I never thought you’d lie to me.” I understand why you did it, and it’s just nice to have all the information now.” I responded.

“All right, enough criminal talk. I want you to have a good birthday, and Travis will be there in a few minutes.” Charis squealed with delight as Travis approached.

“Yay!” I exclaimed, delighted to see Travis.

Travis entered the bakery a few minutes later and approached our table. “Hello, ladies.” He said as he was holding a gift box in his hand.

“Hello, babe.” Charis said, standing up and kissing him on the cheek. I smiled at the sight, and I was overjoyed that my two best friends were dating.

“Happy Birthday, shortness.” Travis stated after finishing with Charis.

“Thank you blue. “Do you have anything for me?” I chuckled, raising my eyebrows.

“I was going to get you a stepstool, but I changed my mind.” He laughed as he handed me the black box.

“I would have killed you.” I glared at him and took the box from his grasp.

I opened the box and discovered a stunning black metal glock. I placed my hand on the cool metal and stared in awe. It was stunning.

“Thank you.” I said, looking up at Travis and closing the box, because I’m sure having a gun in a bakery would raise some eyebrows.

“I know how much you enjoy shooting guns, so now you have your own.” As he sat down next to Charis, he said.

“You’re the best.” I said, putting my new gift in my bag.

I looked up at them and searched the bakery for Seb.

He’s still around. Great I wanted to cause some havoc.

“Andrew has one of his men following me; I’d like to leave and then return to see if he notices.” I elaborated.

“Why?” Jenny inquired.

“I don’t know, I’m bored, and I know how to get to the roof.” I responded.

“I’m not sure if that’s a good idea, Ava.” Travis said.

“Shut up; we’re leaving.” I exploded.

“All right, all right. “Be patient.” Travis replied, his hands up in defeat. I laughed and waited for Seb to stop staring in our general direction.

“Now.” I muttered as I jumped up from the chair and ran for the back door. As I open a door leading to a stairwell, I hear Charis, Jenny, and Travis behind me. I opened the door and began climbing the stairs until we reached the top floor. I opened the door and led everyone outside onto the roof while we were all out of breath.

I took a deep breath of fresh air and opened my eyes to take in the view of New York from the roof. I giggled and went to the edge of the building after hearing Charis, Jenny, and even Travis gasp at the sight of the city.

“It’s incredible, Ava.” Jenny yelled.

“I used to come here all the time to think.” I explained, getting lost in the city’s lights.

After a few minutes, I realized Seb had probably noticed we were gone and was yelling at Andrew, so I rushed everyone down the stairs and back into the bakery. I scanned the bakery and found Seb right where I had left him; he looked me in the eyes and spoke into his earpiece. Most likely telling Andrew that I was still safe. We all returned to our seats, and for the next hour, Charis, Jenny, Travis, and I talked about everything while stuffing our faces with cake.

When I felt a familiar hand touch my shoulder and turned around to look at him, we were all laughing at something Travis said.

“It’s time for you to go, kitten.” Andrew exclaimed as he looked around the table.

“All right, I just have to get ready.” I responded.

“I’ll be waiting in the car,” Andrew said, nodding.

“All right, I’ll meet you there.” I responded.

I noticed Andrew looking at Travis and Travis tensing up. As Charis and Jenny began to clean up the table, I ignored it and began carefully packing all of my gifts into my bag.

“We love you, babe, and happy birthday.” Charis drew me into a bone-crushing hug. I gasped and smiled as I hugged her back.

“We should hang out more. I’m missing you.” Jenny spoke up after Charis let go of her.

“We will, I assure you.” I said while hugging her.

“Shortness, I’ll see you soon.” Travis said as he threw his arm around my shoulder and kissed the top of my head. I rolled my eyes at the gesture but didn’t mind because both he and I knew I treated him like an older brother.

“Goodbye, guys.” I said as I grabbed my bags and waved at them as I made my way out of the bakery.

I approached the black SUV, Seb behind me, and got into the back, where I was greeted by an agitated Andrew.

“What happened?” As the driver began driving us home, I inquired.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“Nothing.” He moaned.

“Is it because of what Travis did?” I rolled my eyes. I inquired, preferring not to deal with an agitated Andrew. “What did Travis do?” he demanded, his head snapping to me. He gave a snarl.

Great. It wasn’t that, and now I have to tell Andrew, who is overly protective, what Travis did.

“He simply kissed the top of my head.” I shrugged and moved my gaze to the window.

“WHAT.” He yelled, startling the driver. I approached him and slapped Andrew on the left cheek.

“You must learn to control your jealousy.” Travis is nothing more than a brother to me. Even though he is dating my friend, if I wanted to be with someone else, I would. But I’m right here with you, so shut up.” I hissed, my gaze fixed on him.

“Ava, for God’s sake, I can’t control it; this new sensation is new to me.” I can’t bear the thought of another man being with you, let alone touching you.” Andrew responded.

“You’re a talker; just three weeks ago, you were all over Ashley.” So if I want to be with another man, I should be able to do so,” I scoffed.

“Av-” Andrew said, his voice dangerously low.

“Don’t.” I said, turning away from him and looking out the window.
