Mafia Kings: Valentino: Chapter 105

After I showered and did my hair, I got dressed.

Of all the decisions I made that morning, you would think the one to go crash a mafia wedding would be the hardest.

But no –

I agonized over the dress.

When Valentino saw me, I wanted to look as beautiful as possible.

I kept going back and forth between a blue one and a white one –

Until I realized, I can’t wear white!

I don’t want to upstage the bride on her wedding day.

As soon as the thought crossed my mind, I burst out laughing hysterically.

But I still went with the blue.


I got to the chapel a quarter before 11.

I’d been planning on earlier, but I’d stalled and procrastinated…

Mostly because I knew this was the most insane thing I’d ever done in my life.

I think part of me was hoping everybody would already be there and it would be impossible to go forward with my plan.

I watched the chapel like a hawk the entire time I approached it –

But no one was there.

No flower vans, no cars, nothing.

If there had been anyone there, I would have backed out.

But the chapel was deserted…

So I kept going.

When I opened the door and walked inside, I glanced around and winced.

I’d fucked Valentino there, standing up…

And there against the wall…

And there on the floor.

Not that the memories were bad.

Far from it. In fact, they were incredibly hot.
