The Mafia's Queen: Entangled With A Psycho.

Chapter 38 - Thirty Seven: Slow

Viktor ran to the garage of his father's estate and made his way to his car. Still shaking in fear, he brought out his key from his pocket as quickly as he could and panicked when he heard footsteps approaching. With the level of fear in him increasing by five hundred percent, he shuddered as he tried to open his car door so he could make a run for it. But as soon as he was about to step into it, his body was harshly slammed on the surface of the car and the car door shut.

Viktor forced his head up and saw Leo standing in front of him with the angriest look on his face.

He swore that if death was a person, it would be Leonardo with that look on his face.

Leonardo harshly grabbed Viktor's collar and looked him straight in the eye with an animalistic look in his. " Where the fuck do you think you're going? What were you looking at back there?" Leo growled.

" I didn't do anything." Viktor denied and earned himself a hard punch to the face.

" Liar. You were looking at my woman, fucking stripping her with your eyes." Leo's eyes burnt with fury as he recalled how Viktor's eyes were on Becca. His Becca. He grabbed Viktor's neck, digging his fingers harshly into his skin.

Leo had been aware of Viktor's stares for a while but didn't react immediately because he thought it wasn't intentional and didn't want to kill Rodrigo's son unjustly. He gave Viktor time to become smart so he would stop poking death in the eye but the bastard was dumber than he thought. Instead of looking away, Viktor deliberately kept staring at Becca with lustful eyes and when Leo couldn't take it anymore, he reacted.

How unfortunate Leo's life was, first Becca refused to acknowledge she was his, now he had to fend off hungry rogues away from her. Now Leo would teach the piece of shit that no one touches what his or even stare at it.

" I didn't know she was yours." Viktor defended himself but was still visibly shaking in front of Leo. Despite both men being tall, muscular, and very rich, when it came to status, strength, and power, Viktor didn't stand a chance against Leo. When it came to being a vicious killer, Leo was still at the top of the food chain, feared by everyone and Viktor knew that very well. He knew that Leo wouldn't let him go without drawing blood out of him first.

" Do I have to fucking write my name on her before fuckers like you stay away? Perhaps I should gouge out those eyes of yours and kill you so you won't be able to look at her anymore." Leo said and started pressing his fingers directly under Viktor's eyes, gradually increasing the pressure.

" No, please don't do this. It's my father's birthday, we are like family, Leonardo. Please, don't kill me." Viktor begged for his dear life but Leo wasn't feeling too merciful that night.

" My father died on my birthday, what makes you so special?" Leo angrily asked, pushing his fingers deeper into Viktor's face.

" Nothing, absolutely nothing makes me special but we can't forget the friendship that your father shared with mine," Viktor said, looking for ways he would talk his way out of Leo's clutches.

Leo's rage-filled eyes calmed down a little after hearing Viktor's last statement, and Viktor, whose fear was all over the place, noticed the almost obscure change in Leo. He silently heaved a sigh of relief, grateful that he wouldn't be meeting his maker that night.

" And better be thankful for that because if it wasn't so, we wouldn't be having such a long conversation now." Leo eased his fingers off Viktor's face but still held him firmly by the neck. " But I can't possibly leave you without getting my lesson across. I will teach you never to gaze at my woman with those sinful eyes of yours and will make you flinch whenever you remember this night." A wicked smile crawled its way to Leo's face, a smile that looked so demented it could only belong to a psycho.

Leo pulled out a pocket knife from his coat and flash the blade for Viktor to see clearly.

" When you wake up tomorrow, the cuts on your body would be a reminder of the delightful experience you will get tonight under my knife," Leo said and laughed hysterically before forcefully stabbing Viktor on his shoulder. Loud groans of pain could be heard from Viktor as Leo dragged the knife through his shoulder, making a straight line cut on it. Leo did this four times, creating four straight lines on one of Viktor's shoulders then moved to the other one and did the same thing on it.

By the time Leo was done with his designs, Viktor's face was already red with pain and his voice hoarse from all the screaming. His shirt was dyed red with the blood that spilled from his deep wounds. Leo looked at him and smiled in satisfaction. Loving the piece of art he had designed and then stabbed his knife into Viktor's thigh.

" Keep it. Fucking laminate it for all I care, this is just a warning to you, Viktor. Try what you did here tonight again and I will walk you to hell personally." Leo said and let the bloody man go. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the blood off his hands then threw the bloody cloth at Viktor.

Leo left Viktor alone there and went back inside to where Becca sat waiting for him to return.

" Hey." He greeted as he took his seat again and gave Becca a sweet smile.

" Hey, are you done with what you had to do?" Becca asked and he nodded.

" Yeah, I'm done." He answered then caught hold of her hands and placed a kiss on both of them.

" Uhm Leo, are you still mad at me?" She asked with her voice sounding sweeter than honey. She knew he was pissed before and asked to check if he still was because he didn't speak much since they got there.

" Why would I be mad at you?" He asked, giving her hands a little squeeze.

" Because I said we were friends." She answered and her eyes searched his face for any sign of anger but found none.

" Is that what you want us to be?" Leo threw another question at Becca which made her confused

Did she really want them to be just friends? Part of her wanted them to be more than that but the rest of her was scared. Terrified of the new change. She felt seriously conflicted and her mind was at war with her heart.

" I want us to take things slow. I don't date and relationships scare me." She answered honestly and Leo touched her soft cheeks.

" I understand. Don't worry, I won't rush things with you. We can go as slow as you want just as long as you assure me that I will be the only man in your life." Leo spoke tenderly like he didn't just seriously injury someone a few minutes ago. He gently caressed her face and stared into her beautiful green eyes. " Promise me you won't welcome any other man except me."

" I promise," Becca responded without hesitation, without any doubts whatsoever, and saw a warm smile on Leo's lips which made her smile as well.

" Thank you." He whispered and kissed the tip of her nose.

Rodrigo was speaking to some people when one of his bodyguards reported to him about what happened to his son in the garage.

His eyes immediately went to Leo's table and saw him holding Becca's hands tenderly. Then the realization hit him. That lady was Leo's woman and his son must have done something completely stupid to annoy him.

Rodrigo then made his way to Leo's table and tapped him on the shoulder. Leo took his eyes off Becca and looked at Rodrigo before getting up from his chair to follow him to a more quiet place. Once they got to a nice spot, Rodrigo spoke first.

" I heard what happened to my son—" Rodrigo began but Leo cut him off.

" And he deserved it," Leo said and Rodrigo nodded in acceptance.

" Yes, he did but I'm hoping that the hostility between you two won't pass this stage, so you two can go back to being as close as you were back then. Leo, you are like a son to me and Viktor is like your brother, you two shouldn't become enemies over such a small issue." Rodrigo said, trying to quench the fire of animosity Leo had towards Viktor now.

Nothing good ever happened to people who got on Leo's bad side and Rodrigo didn't want his son to be so unfortunate. He knew that he couldn't challenge Leo's power and didn't want to lose one son to another.

" That's exactly why he gets to keep his head but if he tries what he did here tonight again, then he won't be so lucky," Leo warned and Rodrigo nodded in understanding.

" I understand," Rodrigo responded and Leo walked away from him to go back to Becca.

Once he got back to his table, he wrapped his arms around Becca's shoulders from behind and kissed the side of her head.

" You look tired, let me take you home," Leo said and Becca nodded. She was starting to feel tired anyway. She stood up from her seat and Leo curled his arm around her waist, ushering her out of the place.

Becca didn't bother asking Leo why he excused himself twice to go somewhere else because she didn't want to come off as being too nosey. He had his own private life just as she had hers.

Leo opened the door to the passenger's seat for her to get in then went around the car and got in as well. He started the car and drove her back to her apartment building. Then once they got there, he walked her to her penthouse apartment and showered her a good night kisses.

Again, frying her brain cells with the heat of his kisses as he devoured her mouth with his tongue. But after tasting how sweet she was, leaving her alone became a problem for Leo. He didn't want to go, to be away from her but reminded himself that he had to take things slow with her.

" I will pick you up for ice cream tomorrow." He said and Becca beamed at him.

" Okay." She responded excitedly and Leo moved his thumb vertically on top of her lips, parting them before devouring her in yet another passionate kiss.

When he was done kissing her breath away, he broke the kiss and touched his forehead on hers.

" I think I'm getting addicted to you and it's your fault." He breathed out, his hot breath fanning her face. Becca pushed him away slightly upon hearing his blunt accusation.

" How is it my fault?" She asked in a whining tone, folding her arms over her chest.

" You drive me crazy," Leo answered and pinched her cheeks. " My little kitten."

" Go home, it's getting late." She shooed him away then went into her apartment and shut the door.

Becca leaned on her door, blushing profusely while fanning her face with her hands. The smile on her face was so wide her cheeks began to hurt. Then she cutely put her ear on the door, trying to check if he was still there, and giggled when she heard his heavy breathing.

" Leo? Are you still there?" She asked from behind the door.

" Yeah." He answered.

" Goodnight" She wished and Leo smiled brightly.

" Goodnight."
