CHAPTER 01 (First Meet) —

You were born into a mafia family, being the youngest child. You had just turned nineteen, and your father wanted to marry you off to the son of another Mafia to join the two. Furthermore, you and your family were now overseas in Italy to meet him and his family.

Sitting at an over the top restaurant by yourself, waiting on Kaizer, the man you’ve never met but are supposed to marry…

“Tsk… E tu lo sei?”

His cold heavily accented voice fills your ears as he approaches your table.

"Huh? I'm sorry I can't understand Italian."

I said and looks at him.

“Ah, you were born in this family, and you cannot even speak your native tongue?” His eyebrow rises.

"I'm not literally living here."

I gesture him to have a seat.

With a slight nod he sits down across from you. “Then we start there. Why are you not in the country that you belong to?” He asks, slightly annoyed and agitated.

"Because I'm just here to met my future husband and his family."

I crossed my arms.

“Hmm, a future husband I see.” He looks completely unamused and annoyed that you said that with such confidence. “You know nothing about me.” He rolls his gray eyes, crossing his arms as well. He seems to be quite irritated.

"Of course I don't. Aside from you're a son of a mafia family too." I answered.

“Is that all you know, my family?” His voice fills with annoyance, seeming to be on edge. He seems to be annoyed that you seem so calm while he’s obviously aggravated about this whole situation.

"Uh, yeah? Because I just met you now. So probably I don't know you."

“You’re right, you know nothing about me.” He seems annoyed and irritated, looking away for a couple of moments, before returning his attention to you.

“Tell me something about yourself.” He asks in somewhat of an annoyed tone.

"Before I tell something about myself, why don't we order something to eat first?" I asked and snapped my fingers.

“What, you’re going to call your waiter over using your snap? Is that how you does it back home?” He said, now sounding somewhat pissed off.

“You’re not special girl. You’re marrying ME, not the other way around.” He says in an aggravated tone.

"I am special. You go call the waiter." I gave him a smile and points out the waiter.

He looks completely annoyed now, his face full of aggravation and annoyance. “You’re something else.”

He says, rolling his eyes and looking away again before calling the waiter over. “Bring us two salads and two bottles of wine.” He says in an annoyed tone, before turning back to you.

"Oh no, I want juice and no to salad for now please. Give me something else." I smiled at the waiter.

The waiter nods and walks off, looking confused at the request. Kaizer now looks at you annoyed…

“Why did you do that?” He asks, almost seeming mad about you asking for something different.

"Because I don't feel to have a wine for now and salad." I smiled.

“Well I do, so give me what I asked for.” He says sternly, seeming mad that you’re not doing as he tells you. “Are you going to be this annoying of a wife?” He asks, rolling his eyes, before looking away again.

"So I need to eat what you ordered? But I already told the waiter to change what I wanted." I calmly said.

Kaizer now looks completely pissed off. “Yes, you are a woman, you should be listening to what the man of the house says.” He says sternly, not breaking eye contact with you, his expression angry and annoyed.

"But we're not still married." I shrug and looks at him with a smile.

“It doesn’t matter. You need to be compliant girl.” He says sternly, seeming completely annoyed and irritated.

"Fine, whatever." I said and plays with the napkin on the table.

Kaizer now looks slightly surprised at your compliance. “Good girl.” He says, nodding slightly and looking away again, crossing his arms again.

"Good girl? Am I a child?" I chuckled in disbelief.

“You just act like it.” He says, seeming slightly annoyed. “Stop playing with that napkin, fold it like I do.” He says sternly and impatiently, folding his napkin neatly in his hand.

"And you just act like my dad." I folded the napkin as he told me to.

Kaizer now looks at you annoyed but slightly impressed. “You should always learn to listen to what your man says, the one thing all women should do.” He says, looking at you and nodding.

"Right, I should listen but not always obey."

“Of course not, I want a wife with a mind of her own, not a puppet.” Kaizer says, seeming somewhat more amused and impressed. “As your future husband, I do allow you to make your own choices and have your own opinions.” Kaizer says as he looks across the table at you. He looks more intrigued now.

"Oh then that's good. Well, I want a pink bedroom for us because I do really love pink." I suggested happily.

Kaizer now seems to be getting used to you, nodding a bit and considering the idea. “I guess I could allow it.” He says, rolling his eyes and being a bit sarcastic.

Despite the sarcasm, he seems to actually consider it.

"Wow, are you really sure about having a pink bedroom?" I asked.

He now seems slightly annoyed again. “It’s not a bad idea, but why pink? It’s too girly, I don’t want a girly girl.” He says, seeming a bit irritated.

"But I'm a girl, so what do you expect? Woman rather. Because I'm a lady now. I love pink, pink, and pink."

Kaizer now looks at you in slight annoyance, before sighing. “Fine.” He says, seeming more irritated than anything. “I won’t complain, but I’m not sleeping in pink sheets.” He says, seeming annoyed.

"And where are you going to sleep?" I asked while looking at him.

Kaizer now looks at you irritated, rolling his eyes. “Of course in the same bed as you, the marriage hasn’t been arranged just for show. Of course, I’ll sleep with you.” He says, seeming annoyed still.

"Yeah, then you're going to sleep in a pink sheet." I smiled widely.

After you say this, Kaizer just seems to stare at you for a moment before rolling his eyes again. “Fine.” He says, not wanting to argue anymore and seeming mildly irritated still.

"Wow what a good husband!" I clapped my hands without a sound.

Kaizer now looks at you with a weird expression, before sighing and looking away from you, rolling his eyes. He was now bored or annoyed once more, making no eye contact with you.

He takes out his phone now, looking at something, probably texting.

I just rolled my eyes and sighed.

The waiter arrives after a few more minutes, setting the salad and wine down in front of you, then leaving.

Kaizer takes the top off his wine bottle, pouring the wine into his glass. He takes a sip and then sits back, looking away from you still, and seeming bored or annoyed.

"Pour me a wine in my glass too." I smiled at him and starts eating my salad.

He rolls his eyes and pours you some wine in your glass. As you eat, he seems to now be playing around on his phone and eating his own salad, seeming annoyed still.

"What are you doing in your phone?" I asked and sips a wine.

“Texting my friends about how awful this arranged marriage is.” He says, rolling his eyes while texting. “We’re probably going to call this whole marriage off.” He says, slightly sarcastic and annoyed.

"Wait, wait, wait... And why???" I raised an eyebrow.

Kaizer now looks at you confused, setting his phone down with a slightly confused and irritated look on his face. “Because I never wanted this marriage in the first place.” He says in a slightly annoyed and irritated tone.

“Why did you think we should get married?” He asks, seeming slightly amused but still irritated.

"I didn't think that we should. Anyway why? Do you have a girlfriend?" I asked curiously.

As you ask this question, Kaizer smiles slightly, almost seeming amused now. “No, I’m a busy man and don’t have time for ‘girlfriends’.” He says in a slightly sarcastic tone, looking across the table at you again.

"How busy are you?" I continue to eat.

“Very busy. I spend most of my time making sure the business is well ran and that everything is in perfect order.” He says, smiling slightly.

“You know, we’ve never talked about you… What do you do?” He asks, seeming a bit intrigued and less annoyed.

"Studying of course. I just turned 19, so yeah. School, house, school, house. Just like that." I simply said.

“What are you even studying?” He asks, raising an eyebrow, being slightly sarcastic and irritated again.

"Law, so that I can sue you in the future." I jokingly said and chuckles.

He stares at you for a moment, not amused by your comment and looking completely irritated. “Oh, I see.” He says in an annoyed tone.

“Is it always this irritating with you?” He asks, rolling his eyes.

"No, I have lots of friends, so I know I'm not irritating. Maybe you're just... Attitude?" I chuckled and tilted my head.

Kaizer now seems annoyed again, looking away from you again. He doesn’t seem to be able to handle your jokes.

“I have an ‘attitude’?” He says, putting his wine down and having both of his hands crossed.

"You should eat your salad now. Why are you ignoring that?" I said and continue to eat my salad.

He just looks at you, seeming more annoyed by the second. “I can do what I want.” He says rudely, rolling his eyes. He doesn’t eat the salad, seemingly too distracted by being annoyed to have any appetite.

"You should listen to your future wife." I chuckled.

Kaizer now rolls his eyes, and it seems that just the thought of listening to you makes him irritated… he takes a sip of his wine. “I’m not listening to you, woman.” He says rudely.

"Then don't." I shrug and finished my food.

Kaizer has now finished most of his wine, seeming annoyed still. He now puts his arms on the table and looks at you.

"Why are you so stubborn, girl?" He looks at you with a small smirk.

"Kitty, that's my name. Do not call me 'girl'. I'm not stubborn, I'm just like this." I proudly says.

"Kitty, what kind of girl's name is that?" Kaizer rolls his eyes, putting his arms down and crossing them once more.

"I'll call you whatever I want, girl- I mean Kitty." He chuckles, seeming a bit amused. He is trying to make you mad.

"Stop with that 'girl' because it doesn't suit my age anymore." I sighed and sips my wine.

Kaizer now seems a bit bored with the conversation, but he will continue to call you girl, if he can annoy you more. It seems to be working…

“Well you’re still a young girl, Kitty. Just because you're nineteen doesn’t mean you’re not a girl.” He chuckles again, sipping his wine once more.

"HMP, what's your name again? Kaizer? What kind of name is that?" I sarcastically said and finished my glass of wine.

Kaizer just looks at you in annoyance, rolling his eyes.

He now seems to be more interested in your sarcastic comments and trying to annoy you. "My name is Kaizer, and it's much better than... Kitty." He says sarcastically.

"But Kitty is more unique than... Kaizer."
