THE MAFIA’S CAPTIVE ANGEL

Sin got home very late last night. I tried waiting up on him but fell asleep; I didn’t even know what time he came home yesterday. Right now, I felt his warmth as I snuggled deeper into his hold.

I slowly opened my eyes, adjusting to the sunlight shining through the window. I looked up and was met with dark orbs staring right back at me.

“good morning”.  I whispered softly,

“Good morning, princess.” I could never get used to his husky voice. It always managed to bring me to my knees. “Did you sleep well?” Sin asked.

“Yeah, I did. I tried waiting up for you yesterday and didn’t notice when I fell asleep.” I answered truthfully with a pout on my face.

“Sorry about that, Amore; I came home pretty late. I hoped you had a fun time with Sam yesterday,” he asked, stroking my hair.

“Yes, we did; I was able to get a dress for tomorrow.”

“I can’t wait to see you in it. I’m sure you will look great in it; you always do,” he responded, his voice sending tingles rising through my body.

“Thank you.” He pulled me closer to his bare chest, and I couldn’t help but steal a few glances at his muscles. He flipped us over so that I was underneath and he was above.

“Nikolai, what are you doing?” I asked him a question. He didn’t say anything but pulled his head down to my face. He planted his lips on mine, asking for entrance with his tongue.

I wrapped my hands around his waist as we kept on kissing passionately. He broke the kiss to trail his lips up and down my neck. He placed a hot, open-mouthed kiss from my collarbone to my earlobe, and I moaned the entire time.

We were so into it, and Sin grind his lower bulge close to my clit, and I would moan, wanting him in me. That was until I felt a sharp pain below my abdomen, I groaned, making him pull away.

“What is it, Mani? Are you in pain?” Sin asked, moving his body away from mine as he scanned my body.

I groaned again; the pain felt so familiar. I looked down at the sheets, and I saw a red stain, blood.

Oh my.

Sin was saying something to me, but I was paying attention because of the blood that caught my attention.

He must have noticed my tense stance. “What’s wrong, Mani?” he questioned.

How could I have completely forgotten about today? Today starts my period week; this is so embarrassing. My cheek was flaming, and all I wanted to do was run away.

I turned to look at Sin, and he was already staring at me, worried. This is really embarrassing; what am I going to do? I looked at the blood on the sheet that he had yet to notice. His eyes followed where I was looking, and he jumped out of the bed, wrapping his arms in mine. He started looking around my body for an injury, having no clue what the blood meant.

I pushed his hands away from my body and stood up as fast as I could, my back facing the bathroom door while my front was in Sin’s view. I turned my head to look at the bathroom door before backing up and running towards it, and Sin just kept staring at me like I was deranged, and the worry in his face intensified.

When I went to the bathroom door and twisted the knob, entering inside with my back, I then locked it. I stood looking for a solution since I had no tampon with me, and I left my phone on the bedside table.

Ugh. What am I going to do?

I heard banging on the bathroom door, which startled me a little. “What is wrong, Mani? Why won’t you tell me where you are hurt?” Sin asked, banging on the door.

“I’m not hurt.” I whispered.

“Then why is there blood on the sheet?”

I sighed, biting the bottom of my lips nervously. “I didn’t know my period was going to arrive today; it completely slipped my mind,” he didn’t say anything. I guess it’s final; he is completely grossed out by me. “I’m sorry I bled out, all over the bedsheet.” Tears welled up in my eyes from shame.

I heard Sin sigh. “I thought it was something serious; you really scared the hell out of me, Amore. It’s natural to bleed out during your menstrual cycle, so I am not angry.”

“But aren’t you grossed out by it?” I asked over the bathroom door.

“It’s blood, Amore. I have seen enough blood to last a lifetime, so you don’t have to be embarrassed because I don’t find it gross at all.” He said so, and I let out a sigh of relief.

“Give me a sec,” Sin says. I heard the sound of his footsteps retreating away from the door, then heard him talking but couldn’t make out what he said. A few minutes passed, and I heard a knock at the room door; the door opened and closed.

What was he doing?

He knocked on the bathroom door. “Open up, amore.” I shook my head not before realizing that he couldn’t see me.

“No, I can’t. I’m still embarrassed.”

“There is no need to be, so open up.” I twisted the knob, opening the door just a little bit to stick out my head. I saw Sin standing right at the door with a bag filled with different tampons.

“Don’t worry, I won’t come in. I asked Zoey to get you a tampon, but I didn’t know which you preferred.”

He handed it over to me. “Thank you.” I whispered softly.

“Shower and get dressed in something comfy. I need to get something, so rest up.”

I closed the door, pulling off my stained cloth, and jumped into the shower, washing my legs and cleaning off the blood. After I was done, I quickly got dressed in something comfy like he had told me and laid back down on the bed.

Sin came back into the room holding a tray in his hand. It had a plate of pancakes with strawberry topping and a glass of cold juice, just the way I liked it. I sat up on the bed, and the tray was placed on my lap.

“Have breakfast; I brought advil to help with the pain,” he said, sitting at the other side of the bed.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“Thank you.” I was really touched; I never had breakfast in bed despite the situation. I scuff down the food and juice before taking the pain relief medicine.

Sin took the tray from my lap, standing up. “Don’t lay down yet until your food has digested,” he walked out of the room again.

But this time he didn’t come. I sat up waiting for him, but he was nowhere in sight. Where did he go?

The pain in my abdomen was minimal. I didn’t feel like sleeping, so I put on the TV and watched a movie on Netflix, King of Boys. It is a Nigerian movie, and I loved the way the actress portrayed her leading role.

I was so immersed in the movie and was close to the final episode when the door opened. Sin stepped in with a bag filled with so many things. I looked at it curiously, wanting to know what was inside.

He walked towards the bed and took a seat beside me, opening the bag and bringing out different varieties of snacks. Ice cream, dark chocolate, coconut chips, cookies, marshmallows, pumpkin bread, and many more

“I read on the internet that girls like stuff like this during their periods. I didn’t know what you liked, so I got everything,” He said, my eyes welling up at his gesture and feeling so touched.

“Are you OK? Does your stomach still hurt you?” he asked worriedly.

I shake my head, pulling him into a hug. “I’m just grateful, that’s all.”

“I would do anything, even if it meant taking a bullet. That’s how important you are to me, Mani,” he said, staring deeply into my eyes, showing how much he meant every word he said.

He placed his hand on my stomach, and I squirmed away. I haven’t been getting any exercise, which means I have added more weight. I didn’t want him touching me because I didn’t want him to feel my belly fat.

“What is it this time?”

“I have added a little bit of weight; I don’t want you to feel that,” i said, feeling self-conscious.

His face turned dark. He lifted me up from the bed to his lap. “You aren’t fat, Mani; you are perfect, and even if you were, you would still be the most beautiful and sexy woman I have ever seen,” he said as he leaned down and placed a kiss on my head.

And all I felt was contentment.
