Your Mafia Trap novel Chapter 8

"Xavien Knight?" Silas asked.

I sighed, "Yes, you seem to know everyone is this damn business world. Have you heard anything about him?"

"Yeah, he owns a car company, he's actually extremely talented with designing cars. They're badass cars, but most don't need gas. He's the go green type of guy. Apparently, he did have a wife a few years back, but she left him and took over half his money. He's now paying for his mother's hospital bills and his dad's, both are fighting cancer."

I frowned, "Anything else?"

"Yeah, he's actually a pretty cool guy. Just, you don't want to be on his bad side, he's incredibly dangerous. Oh, wait, his ex-wife and her current husband passed away just last month in a house fire. Her body was recovered and some...remains of the husband's was."

I bit my lip, "Do you think...he had something to do with that?"

"Considering she tormented his younger sister for months after their divorce, yeah. Damn, she made the younger sister's husband divorce her."

"Who's his little sister?"

It was silent for a moment before I heard him say shit, "Silas?"

"Uh...his sister is...well, what is Melody's last name? You know, Gabriel's girlfriend."

My eyes widened, "Oh, hell no."

"Yeah."

"What did you mean by tormenting Melody?"

"Well, she sent some...disturbing packages to her house and constantly shoved it in Melody's face that her husband cheated on her and left her."

"Damn, everyone is divorcing everyone."

Silas sighed, "Unfortunately, that seems to be the trend of this generation. Fucking sucks."

"Is there anything else about Xavien?"

"Yeah, I have a friend who works in that company. He's not very open, when he's nervous he becomes very...flirty I guess you could say. Or sassy. He's always alone too, hasn't dated anyone, pushed all his friends away, and lives alone. Doesn't even go out, just works all the time."

I frowned, "That sounds like a boring life."

"Tell me about it."

"Well, I'm going to go to bed. I have to get up tomorrow."

"Alright, night bitch."

I chuckled, "Night, cousin."

Once he hung up, I plugged my phone into the charger and sighed. My mind was filled with thoughts of Xavien. So, if he becomes a bit flirty when nervous, was he nervous around me tonight? I sighed before curling up and closing my eyes, just wishing my life could be way simpler than this. Though, I do have one personal chore tomorrow. Make sure Gabriel doesn't leave Melody for me or any other girl. If she is Xavien's sister.

When my phone suddenly sounded, I screamed into my pillow. I then snatched the damn thing and answered it.

"What the fuck do you want?" I snapped.

"Well, someone is a bit grumpy."

"Did you kill her?" I asked, ignoring him.

"I...no...I don't know who did. She was pregnant at the time, I couldn't kill an innocent baby."

I frowned, "Oh."

"Well, you are most likely tired, goodnight."

"Goodnight."

"Oh and just going to warn you, my sister is dating your ex-husband. I might of listened to your conversation with Silas."

"You're now creepy to me."

"Hey, you had him find info about me."

I chuckled, "Alright, then, we're even."

"Yup. But I'm just asking you, please...try to understand my sister. I know, she's a bitch, but she has dealt with a lot. That's all just a sheild for her, she's terrified of losing Gabriel. Considering how her last marriage went. The guy was an ass to her."

"Yeah, sure...you know, you don't act like a mob boss."

"Like I have said before, I'm not like your usual mob boss. Goodbye."

He then hung up, leaving me dumbfounded.
