Stalked by the Mafia Boss

A wide smile appeared on Korina’s face as she watched Cole enter the restaurant with a bouquet of flowers and a small wrapped box.

She thought he’d forget cause of work and his hectic schedule, her heart warmed at the fact that he didn’t.

Today was their four month anniversary, it was exactly four months since Korina decided to take the bold step and give a shot at love again.

Exactly four months that she had said yes to him and had been receiving disturbing and threatening texts from her stalker.

Threats not directed to her of course but to her boyfriend, Cole.

The text contained words of her stalker whining about Cole not being good for her and how he was the only man for her, how she was supposed to be with him.

She had reached the conclusion that the man belonged in an asylum cause she didn’t understand how he could say he was good for her and they were meant for each other when she hadn’t even met him.

Men be crazy, She had scoffed.

She got really alarmed and disturbed when he began threatening Cole through the texts about how he wanted to cut him into pieces for touching what was his.

She was so horrified, she screamed and begged aloud in her apartment knowing he could hear her, she had begged him not to harm Cole. Hopefully for her, none of the threats were carried out.

Korina didn’t bother telling Cole about what was going on that she had a stalker. She didn’t bother telling him that his life was being threatened by a man obsessed with her, a man she didn’t even know. She thought telling her boyfriend wasn’t necessary and so she kept the information from Cole and kept hiding the expensive gifts he sent.

“There’s my blonde dread headed goddess.” Cole had reached where Korina was now, he dropped the flowers and gift he held on the counter, turning to her, he pulled her closer, putting his hands on her waist before drawing her closer and placing a kiss on her lips.

Korina responded back creeping her hands behind his neck trying to match the pace of his lips.

“Ewww! Ewww! Ewww!” Mark said gagging at them, “Get a room you two, horny people.” He rolled his eyes.

The couple pulled apart laughing, Cole’s hands still on Korina’s waist.

“Happy Anniversary, my love.” Cole kissed her on the forehead.

“More to go baby.” She smiled up at him.

“You would understand when you find love.” Mark rolled his eyes at what Cole said to him, “Whatever, just don’t fuck in front of me.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Mark!” Korina screeched reaching out a hand, she smacked him on his head.

“That was painful.” He groaned rubbing his head, “Hold your woman, damn!” He said to Cole before sticking his tongue out at the Couple and leaving them be.

Korina and Cole laughed as they watched him grumble his way out.

“So.” Korina said looking at the box he had walked in with, “Is that for me?” She asked.

“Nope dear.” Cole said, “I got it for your boss.”

He got hit on the arm and dogded the other hit, “Calm down vixen.”

Korina rolled her eyes and picked up the box.

She pulled at the ribbon and it fell loose, she lifted the lid and dug her fingers into the box.

She found a bracelet in it. It was a charm bracelet to be exact, she raised it up studying the stones on it as they glinted.

“It’s so beautiful.” She gasped, “I love it.” She said jumping on him giving him a tight hug, “Thank you Cole, Thank you.” She whispered giving him a kiss on the neck.

“For what?” He asked puzzled, “It’s our anniversary babe.

” I know.” She said, “Thank you for all the love you have shown me and not repeating whatever I have suffered in the past.”

“You deserve it and more.” He gave her one more kiss on the head, “I should get going now.” He took a glance at his watch.

“No, uh.” Korina stopped him, “You aren’t leaving till I give you your gift.”

“You got me something babe?” Cole asked as he watched her go behind the counter.

“Yes, of course.” She brought out something wrapped in a plastic bag and handed it over to Cole.

“Hmm… let’s see what she got me.” He collected the plastic bag and opened it up.

Cole brought out a plate, it was a plastic plate with the top covered with a silver foil paper.

“What’s this?” He asked, “It smells nice.”

“Will you just open it already.” Korina stomped her feet getting bored that he was doing it slowly.

“Okay, okay love.” He unwrapped the foil paper a little and very delicious aroma hit his nostrils.

“Hmm.” Cole breathed in the aroma, “It smells fantastic.”

He unwrapped it wholly and was met with an apple pie, one of his favorite pastries.

“Awwn baby, this is lovely.” He said, “Best boyfriend in the world.” He read out the letters inscripted on the pie top.

He was grining like he won a lottery.

“Thanks a lot honey.” He began wrapping it all back up, “I should be on my way now, I am getting late.”

“So dinner tonight?” Korina asked hoping he would say yes, they haven’t really hung out like a couple for quite some time now, “At my place.” She said.

Korina was walking him to the doors now.

“Nope, I am afraid I don’t think I can make it.” Cole said, “I am sorry, I got a really hectic night shift and cases at the emergency ward too.”

“Oh.” She replied feeling downcast, “It’s okay, I understand but I miss you a lot yunno.” She whined.

“I miss you too.” Cole turned her towards him, “You know i’d make time out for you no matter what but i am very busy these days babe.”

“Can’t you take a day off or something?” She pouted looking up at him with puppy eyes.

“Nope.” He laughed, “It’s gonna be better soon tho.”

“Promise?”

“I promise.”

He drew her closer into a hug.

“Bye baby.” He gave her a final kiss and withdrew, taking long strides outside the door and to his car.

Korina stood there waving, watching as he drove away, a wide smile on her lips.

She sighed, finally, She felt loved and she was happy.
