《The Mafia's Mistake (Completed)》Chapter 33 *EDITED*
Advertisement
"Baby please make me the happiest man in the world and say yes,"
Rafael was on one knee, in his hand was a box and inside was a ring, a massive diamond sparkling in the dim light.
I was frozen in place. I couldn't move nor talk, I was so happy and I couldn't help the tears that were blinding this perfect moment but just before I could say yes a guard ran in, the guard was obviously out of breath.
"What do you want?" Rafael screamed, I thought he'd bite the guard's head off.
The guard squatted to his level and whispered something to him causing Rafael to quickly shut the velvet box with the ring inside and get on his feet before he literally ran out of the living room. I stood there shocked at what had just happened. What was so important he would run out of his own proposal? Sadness over came me then worry.
I pulled a chair and sat waiting for him to come back but minutes turned to hours and still he didn't come back. I played around with my keys not wanting to move thinking that if he came back and found me gone he would be disappointed. The hours went by, one by one making me anxious as hell. I started pacing worried that something was wrong but after an hour I couldn't pace no more so I sat back down biting my nails now.
I hoped he was fine, Lord I was so worried. As tired as I was I couldn't bring myself to go to my room to sleep. By the crack of dawn I couldn't no more so I placed my arms on the table and lay my head on top before drifting to sleep.
A maid woke me up around 9am and my back hurt like hell. She offered me food which I barely ate.
Finally I gave up and stood but felt a sharp pain which caused me to sit back down.
"What is it ma'am? " the maid asked concerned.
"I felt a sharp pain here," I said pointing by my belly button.
"What kind of pain?" She asked.
"Like someone is punching me." I said lowly

"Oohh, the baby is kicking, it's nothing to worry about ma'am" the maid said smiling causing me to return the smile.
"Oohh, I should go rest in bed then, thank you." I said standing up with the pain gone. I walked up to my room and threw myself on the bed before sleep consumed me.
I woke up to an aching body, it felt like someone had hit me with a hammer a thousand times. I woke up and dragged myself to take a bath that didn't help before going back to bed to just lay there. I wondered if Rafael was back yet but didn't have the energy to go search for him. Yesterday had been the best day of my life and I tried replaying everything in my mind causing me to smile. I couldn't believe Rafael had proposed and I seriously didn't see it coming. Finally I was happy after everything I had been through. I didn't dare think of the past because just thinking about it would cause me to cry my eyes out but I made it and here I was soon to be engaged and a mother to my lovely baby who had just started kicking today. I couldn't believe Rafael missed it, he would be so sad.
Finally I got up and walked to just bump into a maid along the living room.
"Hi, do you know if Rafael is back?'' I asked politely.
"No ma'am he is not back yet, "she said politely before walking off.
I wondered what was wrong, I stood there for a while then I went to the garage where a guard stood ever so intimidating with a gun in his hand.
'' Hi, would you happen to know which car is the 'Bugatti Chiron'?''
"Its right there ma'am"
I thanked him before I walked towards my beautiful purple baby. It looked fresh from the box and I couldn't wait to get inside and drive it. Too bad I had left the keys in my room. I would have to thank Rafael a thousand times. I walked back to the house and to the kitchen where the cook made me a nice meal which I devoured like a crazy person before retiring back to the room to watch TV. I missed Rafael so bad and felt like I would go crazy. How could he ask me to marry him then up and leave without hearing my answer but I was too stunned to say anything. I couldn't even nod, if only I had just got my nerves in control and said yes. What if he thinks that I don't want to marry him, because I do?

The sun set and I was getting more and more anxious. Where was he? Was he okay?
Just as I was about to start pacing there was a knock on the door and my heart went wild. I opened it to find eight maids standing there looking like they had just ate lemons.
"Sorry ma'am the Mr vintage called and said we should clean the room, change sheets and move your stuff." one of them said lowly.
It took time for my mind to register what they had just said.
"wh...at, why?'' I asked perplexed.
"We don't know ma'am but he said he'd be here in two hours and we better have wiped the room spotless."
I was confused, I didn't know what was happening nor had the energy to talk so I just let them pass and sat by the coach as they scrubbed the floors, changed sheets along with the carpet and curtains. They cleaned every corner as some of them packed my stuff, all my stuff, even toiletries and moved them away. After a while I summoned the courage and asked where they were taking all my things.
"Sir said we should put them in a room on the west wing." the girl with blonde hair and blue eyes replied causing my jaw to drop.
Maybe Rafael was buying me new things but why didn't he just tell me, lord knows I have been worried sick about him. I refused to leave the room as the maids asked, I would wait for him here. By the time they were done I couldn't recognise the room, it was stunning. The black curtains had been switched for gold ones along with the sheets whilst another white carpet was placed on the floor. The closet where my clothes were was clean with only just Rafael's clothes then guards flocked in carrying loads and loads of new dresses which were still covered in transparent plastics as if from the dry clean after a while other guards came carrying paper bags from all the expensive shops. They didn't acknowledge me as they packed the half empty closet with new stunning clothes. This happened for hours- shoes, jewellery, jeans, shirts, coats and everything that you could imagine.
New oils and flowers were placed in the bathroom and I found myself dazed. Rafael had done this all for me, he was surely going all out. I wanted to giggled and just jump around in excitement but I held myself as the others worked. When everything was put in place and the room looked like heaven they all walked out.
"Sorry ma'am but you should leave the room." the last guard to leave said.
"Nah, don't worry I will wait for him here." I said smiling.
"No ma'am I insist.'' the guard's tone was serious and dangerous sending shivers down my spine. I wanted to protest but didn't so I took one last look and walked out. The guard escorted me to the living room where everyone was surprisingly waiting. They were all murmuring but as soon as I walked in they all hushed down.
I stood next to one of the maids perplexed, I had never seen this kind of behaviour here but maybe Rafael was coming back and wanted to tell them about our engagement. A sound of the elevator drew me from my thoughts and I almost rushed to hug Rafael but I stood frozen right where I was.
I couldn't understand, my mind was suddenly on slow motion because I couldn't fathom what was happening yet my heart knew as it broke into a million pieces, I mean shutter. It felt difficult to breathe everything hurt.
I had asked him and he had promised me but now here I stood there watching the man who had proposed to me the day before walk in with the girl I had come to loathe in his arms unconscious.
LOALA.

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
