The Mafia Bride (Katrina and Silas)

Chapter

65

Silas stood at the entrance to my cell and my vision blurred as 1 blinked up at him.

I wasn't certain if it really was him I was seeing, but I couldn't mistake that body anywhere.

Why was he here? Has it been so long already? Did Alisa ask him to come get me?

How did he come down here and who gave him the key to let me out?

What about Marcos? Does he know about this!

All these questions ran through my mind and I had no answers for any.

I was just happy that Silas had come for me.

I tried to push up from where I sat, but my body felt heavy and I was barely able to lift myself.

"Silas I called his name weakly as he closed the distance between us in two long strides. Before I could register what was happening. Silas was kneeling, reaching out to me. He wrapped his arms around my body, pulling me against his chest.

The gesture sent waves through my body and I wrapped my arms around him well.

I yelped when his arms slipped under me, lifting me effortlessly

"Silas..." His name left my lips once more and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

I still was unable to understand what was happening, but I was happy to see him.

My body went limp as he carried me in his arms bridal style, holding me against his chest.

"You came." I breathed out weakly, tears stinging my eyes. He really did come for me.

Alisa said she was going to save me if anything happened, and she did it by calling Silas over.

"I'm sorry for not coming any sooner. He apologized, and I closed my eyes, a lone tear slipping down.

It didn't matter when he came I was happy he was here right now.

I wanted to tell him not to apologize cause he didn't do anything wrong, but the words choked in my throat and I could only shake my head.

I could barely process the feeling of being held by him-warm, secure.

I don't think I've ever felt this safe before, and before I could control it, another tear drop slid down my face..

"You're okay now," Sila coaxed and I nodded my head, opening my eyes to stare at his face.

He was here, really here.

I was okay now

But would Marcos let him carry me out without any issues?

I wanted to ask, but I wasn't sure if I should.

Since he had walked into the enemy's territory, he should have a plan.

Funny that Marcos was now an enemy to me, my very own biological father wouldn't care if I was alive or not.

"Marcos?" I asked before I could stop myself, his earlier phrase of killing Silas coming to mind.

"Don't worry about him and go to sleep, Katrina. I got you," Silas urged and I did exactly as he said

My entire body shut down, feeling the safety of Silas' arms wrapped around me.

I know he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. I trusted him that much

The thought that I was still hallucinating came to mind.

What if I was only imagining this cause I wanted Silas to come to save me?

I felt frightened by that thought so I dug my fingers into my palm

The sharp pain filled my senses, and yet I couldn't help but feel relieved.
