Fall For My Ex’s Mafia Father

Chapter 50
As I fall into the routines of the Lippert house I'm surprised to find that I'm quickly
bored by them. Life at my home with David and Janeen was also boring- but
they're just normal people. A little of me, I think, expected everyday gang life to
be more exciting.
It's not that the house is empty, really. Every day starts with a flurry
of activity. Breakfast in the kitchen is a big affair, with everyone rushing through.
Kent's top guys — mostly older gentlemen — drink their tiny glasses of espresso at
a table in the corner, bantering.
Lower—level guys, dressed in thousand—dollar sweatsuits, run briskly through,
reporting and getting new orders.
Guards are all around — watching everything, but mostly wishing, I think, that they
were important enough to be included with the others. If they work hard enough,
though, they can level up.
As the day passes, everyone spreads out to do their work. Daniel goes out a lot
to school, mostly, wrapping up his spring
semester. I've been expressly forbidden to go out with him, to
school or anywhere else. Apparently, I'm still a kidnapping target.
Kent has told the Mafia world that I'm out there, but until he locks
me down as part of his family I'm forbidden any freedom.
The first day Daniel left me behind, Fiona had come into the house just as he
was leaving. Seeing my sad face, she wrapped an arm around my shoulders, her
voice full of pity.

“I know,” she said, giving me a little squeeze. “It's like you're a mafia widow
already, stuck in this house. May as well dress yourself head to toe in black crepe
and spend your day saying the rosary for his soul.”
“At least it would be something to do,” I moaned, slumping my shoulders forward
in misery. “It's so boring here.”
And it really is. Again, not that there's not a lot going on in this house at all times,
it's just that I'm...not at all a part of it.
Everyone — the guards, the captains, the made guys — they're
all very nice and polite to me. They smile at me when they pass
me in the hall. But no one really talks to me, even if I try. I get the
impression that Kent expressly forbade it.
My only friend is Fiona, and she’s very sweet, but we don't have a
lot in common.
Fiona is, I think, a mafia boss's dream girlfriend. She's sweet, funny, and has
enough bite in her wit to keep from being boring. She’s incredibly sexy, but she
spends most of her day building and maintaining that sexy appearance for Kent.
When she’s not here, she’s out getting her hair and her nails done. When she’s in
the house, she’s doing aerobics, or facials and beauty treatments, or playing with
makeup and clothes. Fional always looks stunning and keeps up with the latest
fashions, but it's a ton of work.

Fiona has swept me up in her world a bit. I think she likes it, giving me a whole
master’s course in makeup and hair care that I never,
ever would have even thought about before she came along.
But so much of the world just seems...ridiculous to me, though I'd never say it to
her. For instance, once, her Botox doctor came
by the house and she asked me if I wanted a little. “Just here and
