Mafia Monster's Forced Bride

Bill would wake up soon. Wouldn’t he?
“Did you kill him?” she asked.
Roman pulled out of the parking lot, and then they were on the road. He didn’t answer, and Alex hated this.
“Did you?”
He still didn’t answer.
“Damn it, Bill is important to my father. You better not have killed him or else—”
“Or else what?” Roman asked.
“Or else my father will consider it a slight against him. He will make you pay.”
Roman laughed. “Make me pay. The man is a fucking fool. Allowing you to go to school.”
“How dare you? Just because you don’t want your women to be intelligent. My father is the complete opposite. He believes all women should be treated equally.”
“I have nothing against women seeking an education!” He snarled out the words.
“Then why are you taking me away? And slow down. You are going to get us killed.”
She had already slid her seatbelt on, but now, she dropped her bag down between her legs and held on to the door.
“I can’t. We’re being followed.”
Alex gasped and looked around, trying to see if there was anyone following them. At that moment, Roman changed lanes, and she saw a black car did exactly the same move. Roman changed again, and the same car did the same action.
“Okay, okay, we’re being followed.”
“From the moment I got to the school, that car was sat there. I thought it looked a bit suspicious, but it was there before I turned up, so I didn’t think much of it. Knowing you were there, that’s why the black car was there.”
“They want me?” Alex asked, starting to panic.
“Are you too fucking dumb to realize that you are now a powerful woman? You are married to the Greco Boss’s son, and you are the daughter of Liam Smith, notorious crime lord. There is a target on your head, Alex.”
She had no idea. “I’m not important.”
“Do not be dense.”
“My dad will move heaven and earth to save me, but to you, I’m nothing. I’m just a contract you can’t stand.” She was only stating a fact.
Roman didn’t like her.
“Then you are more foolish than I thought.”
“I just … my dad said it was fine for me to go to school.”
“Maybe it was before you married me, but not anymore. It is not safe for you.” They came to a long stretch of road, and Alex felt the hum of the car beneath her.
“Stay down,” Roman said.
She had nowhere else to go.
This was the most they had talked in their two months of marriage.
He spun the car, and all of a sudden, they were facing the other car. At some point, Roman had gotten himself a gun, and he pointed it toward the car. Alex screamed as bullets hit the car.
