Chapter 49&50:
*
Draco was hosting a party in his home. Only the drug lords were invited.
The other drug lords had their supposed girlfriends or lovers sitting on their laps.
Draco sat alone, like the innocent Lord he was. He had his cigar in his hand, puffing heavy smokes out of it.
” Come on man, you’ve got to be kidding me. Don’t tell me you’ve got no woman with you? You’re the famous Luciano in the city, you shouldn’t be single. ” One of the lord’s said.
Draco smiled as he kept puffing but said nothing to him.
” I doubt he is single.” Another said, dropping his glass of alcohol on the table. ” He can’t possibly be alone with such type of fame he posses. They are lots of girls at the club bar who must have caught his attention. ”
Another smile on his l-ips yet he said nothing. ” Not even a one night stand for some little satisfaction? ” The first speaker said.

Natalie walked in on her black mini gown with an opening which ran from the neck curve of her gown down to her abdomen, exposing the sides of her two br-asts.
And she was putting on a black fashioned hat making it impossible for one to identify her.
From the door, she scanned her eyes around the environment. They were multitudes of crowds in the house.
She headed to the second dinning room where Draco always have most of his meetings.
She walked pass through the crowds until she was standing before the door.
She could hear the chattering of voices and the sound of a silent music playing. She took a deep breath.
As if the door was their source of attention, the chattering stopped and all eyes went to the door to witness who it was.
Natalie wasn’t the type who was ashamed of the crowds but tonight, with the numerous eyes staring at her, she felt shy.
She rose her hat a bit high, focusing her attention only to Draco as if he was the only one in the house. She threw him a smirk.
” Now here comes the drug queen.” Charles cheered at the other Mafia Lords who doubted Draco’s feelings.
Natalie walked up to sit on his lap, placing a warm k-ss on his l-ips.
” Never expected you’d come.” He said happily.
” I changed my mind. ” She dropped another k-ss on his l-ips before turning to glare at the other guests. ” Hi. ” She waved at them.
The other men stared in disbelief. They couldn’t believe Draco would have such a great taste.
One had his mouth opened like he had seen a real goddess.
Charles flipped his fingers at him, bringing him back to reality. ” Hey, stop giving her those looks, she’s some one’s property. ”
” Hey, I know you. ” A drunk man in his early forties stood by the door. He had a half bottle of whiskey in his hand.
Pointing at Natalie’s direction, he said again. ” I know you. You’re the girl who banged the door on my nose
” He said.
Natalie looked at Draco who was busy smiling.
” So you finally ended up with your pet, huh? Impressive.” He sipped on his whiskey making his way to an empty seat.
The men were up to something secret or rather… Dangerous. The ladies had to excuse themselves for their privacy.
Natalie joined the other ladies outside as they occupied one of the empty rooms upstairs.
They all had alcohol before them and shisha which they all smoked from.
All Natalie could do was to stare at them one after the other as they inhaled the smoke, puffing it out.
” Don’t just stare at us, come have a taste of it.” Said one of the girls.
” I’m sorry, I don’t smoke. ” She said waving a ‘no’ at her.
” Hey, don’t force her to do it. I bet you don’t wanna see the other side of Draco. ” Said another.
” It’s not gonna kill you. We all felt the same way when we were amateurs but look at us now, it’s nothing to us. Come on, have a taste. ” The first girl insisted.
Natalie glared at the rest of the girls before going ahead with a trial.
She inhaled the smoke, with a loud cough she exhaled it out, rubbing her nose with the back of her palm.
” I told ya, it doesn’t kill. You’ll love it as soon as you get used to it. You can also try the alcohol too.”
” Cassandra, whatever happens to her, don’t say I didn’t warn you. ” The other girl warned.
Cassandra rolled her eyes at her. ” You’re scared for her sake? Come on…”
Cassandra poured a glass of alcohol for Natalie who had it all gulped at once.
She dropped the glass roughly on the glassy table, holding her head with her hands.
” Are you alright?” Cassandra asked, trying to touch her.
” Yes. Yes, I am. I think I’ll use the toilet. ” She said.
Taking her bag with her, she headed to one of the toilets.
She quickly dropped her bag on the sink, rinsing her mouth and her face several times with the tap water.
She took a menthol gum from her back, chewing it slowly.
As if she had gotten herself, she rested her hands on the both sides of the sink, breathing heavily. Her eyes fixed to the mirror.
She could feel the loud vibration in her head, like the morning catholic bell from the british chapel.
She had over dozed the alcohol for a feeble brain.
She splashed another hand full of water on her face, drying it with a face towel.
Draco walked in, leaning against the door. ” How did you know I was here?” She asked, looking at him through the mirror.
” The girls told me you were here. How is your night going? ” He asked.
” Seriously, I will never try smoking and alcohol ever again.”
He chuckled. ” It’s not that dangerous. ” He said.
” Really? ” Scoffing, ” how on earth do you guys survive with that? I mean, that’s a short way to death. ”
He bursted out laughing. ” It’s always like that on your first try. Don’t worry, you’ll get use to it. ”
” No. No, no. No way, I’m definitely not doing that again or else I’m gonna die. ”
” Maybe for now. ”
” Eternity. ” She said, rolling her eyes. After a brief silence, she said. ” You know, I keep imagining myself embracing a new life.
I mean, it’s crazy you know, falling in love with City of London’s most wanted. The one person I would spend the wh0le night awake writing about.
Now, it has all turn that this very person is the same person I want to spend the rest of my life with. ” She chuckled. ” Never fall in love with a gangster.”
” I never expected you’d fall in love with me either. After every thing that has happened to you because of me, I’m really surprised. ”
” Some times, things happen for the greater good. Who knows why fate has brought us together. ”
He walks up to where she stood. ” I’m happy fate did bring us together.” He said, folding his arms around her wa-ist. ” Did I ever tell you, you look great tonight?”
She blushed. ” I do?”
” I’d say, you look more of a drug queen to me. I can’t wait to make you one. ”
” I don’t think so. ” She doubted.
” Why? ”
” Because my father will be returning to the city next week. I don’t know if he’ll accept to our relationsh¡p. ” She said, a bit bitter in her words.
” I’ll talk to him even if he doesn’t. ” He said.
Natalie stared at him with doubts. She knows her father too well, he will never let her date a gangster. Worst still, a drug lord.
” I doubt he’s gonna listen to you. You don’t know my father as much as I do.” She said.
” He’ll certainly do. Trust me. ”
” And what if he doesn’t? ”
” I’ll have no other choice but to do what I have to do. ”
” What are you thinking? ” She asked.
” We fly out of the state. ”
