《My Mafia Man ◇》Chapter 5: Valentino🍁

Raelynn's pov:
After having our coffee, we both started to talk about casual things we found online. Mid conversation, I noticed two guys who came in and sat a few tables ahead of us. From where I was sitting, I could see them clearly.
I looked back at Cassandra, listening to what she was saying instead of focusing on the two guys. However, they kept giving us side glances which made me alarmed. They didn't order anything, they weren't talking... they just sat there as if they were waiting for some orders.
Cassandra sighed, "Ok, I know you are not listening to me."
I shift my gaze on her, "Sorry, I wasn't."
"What is it?" She asked cautiously.
"Don't look right away but these two guys seem fishy," I answered.
She instantly turned around making me inwardly facepalmed.
"Oh my God." She murmured before turning to me.
"Could you make it more obvious?" I said sarcastically.
"No, I mean sorry but this is him. The one that I told you about earlier." She said in a low voice.
"The one that came to your boutique?" I asked and she nodded.
Can't be a coincidence...
"Pack your stuff," I ordered.
She instantly grabbed her bag to pack all her things. As I was helping her, we didn't notice that they moved from their table. They sat beside us; one beside me and one beside Cassandra. She froze looking at me.
I gave her a reassuring look.
The one beside me was a brunette. He had a nose piercing, a well-cut beard, a black ear piercing and he was muscled. His eyes were hazel and right now he had no emotion displayed on his face.
The one beside Cassandra was different. He had black hair, a muscled body, a sharp jawline, an eyebrow piercing and a tattoed neck. Again he also has a blank face.

"Don't get too comfortable, we are leaving," I told them.
"Not yet," The one beside me said.
"I'm Valentino and he's Theo. We only want to talk to you."
So the brunette one was Theo and the one beside Cassandra was Valentino. By Cassandra's description, Valentino was the one who came to her antique boutique.
"It'll be better for you to come with us willingly," Theo added as he moved his jacket to the side to show me his gun in his waistband.
If he thinks that a gun was going to scare me, he's delusional. I can easily beat them up and get out of here but I won't do so, not when Cassandra's with me.
She'll get in trouble then I'll get in trouble with her dad.
"On one condition," I said looking at both of them. Cassandra hit my leg under the table and I bit my lips to hide the discomfort.
"I'll come with you but she isn't going to get involved in this," I stated pointing at Cassandra.
"Fine by us," Theo stated.
I turned to Cassandra, "Go home."
She's insane.
My cousin is insane!
Theo stood up and Raelynn stood up, following him out. Valentino stood up too but before leaving he turned to me, "Don't worry we won't hurt her. We just want to talk."
Oh, I'm not worried about her.
You should worry about yourself...
I stayed silent and he walked away.
"What's going on?" Seth asked concerned as he stopped by my table.
I sighed, "Probably the last time we saw these cute guys."
They had their car parked right beside mine. Valentino opened the back door for me and I sat down. On the other side, Theo opened the door and sat beside me.

Valentino went to the driver's seat.
I purposely opened the door to my side and it was on child lock, just like I thought. I could feel Theo's calculating eyes on me.
I turned to him, "What? I'm just checking if you are doing your job properly."
I heard Valentino chuckle at the front, "If we did our job properly like we usually do, you'd be dead."
So would you buddy...
We stayed silent throughout the entire drive. We reached a black gate and it opened instantly when the car stopped.
They are in the mafia...
No small gang has this big mansion. There was a black van aline on one side and the building was big. Valentino turned off the car and they stepped out.
He opened my door and I stepped out.
"Our Leader Kyson will talk to you then we'll drop you back at the coffee shop," Theo told me.
We walked to the front entrance, both of them walking close to me like bodyguards. Their main lounge was like ours, big and spacious. There were many guys groups talking among themselves making the place really loud and when they saw us, the noise died as they stared.
No doubt, they were curious to know who I was.
So far I don't see any girls around...
We made our way to the stairs on the right side of the room. We walked upstairs and went into a hallway only to stop at the last chocolate brown door.
Valentino knocked twice before opening the door. He moved to the side gesturing me to walk further.
I did.
As I walked into the office, my eyes landed on the man, who I presumed was the leader Kyson. He looks breathtaking, God sure took his time on this one.
He has piercing blue eyes, a set jawline, his face was well structured, he was muscled, clean shaved and what stands out the most was his hairstyle. The side of his head was trimmed while the middle part was long. He tied it in a tight bun, a few strands of hair falling on his forehead. He wore a black pair of earrings, matching his hair colour. One of them was a simple circle earring while the other one have a leaf dangling off.
He wore a white shirt, his sleeve tossed to his elbow. The first two buttons of the shirt were open, giving him the hot look.
He was sitting on his black leather chair, leaning back, one of his arms was resting on the armrest of the chair while his other elbow was on the left arm rest, his hand resting near his mouth.
