Ex Regrets, After I Become Mafia Heir

What do I do now?

Enrico's POV

I do not understand why I did not listen to Megan Pistone when she told me she was the daughter of the Godfather. I should have listened to her. Dammit, now I'm married to her. How am I going to explain this to the godfather? How will I explain to the Casella family that I married a daughter of their family? I am dead. I am sure Don Casella is going to kill me.

I look at the girl who is holding our merry certificate. Perhaps we can get it annulled before anybody knows. It does not look like she is planning on doing anything like that. There is a smile on her face. I think she is finding this whole situation amusing. Does she not realise that I am in grave danger of being killed?

"I am glad that you found my situation amusing. We have to go back and get this marriage annulled." I say.

It will cost me a pretty penny, but it is worth paying. It is better than being killed by the Italian Mafia's godfather.

Megan looks at me and smiles.

"Why do you want to get our marriage annulled? I will pay you to stay married to me for a while. Do not worry. Nobody will kill you. I will protect you. I will explain to my parents what happened. They never liked Tony. They even refused to meet him. I was going to propose to him tonight. However, I think you make a better groom than he does. What did he say when you took away the contract? You know, he only got the contract because of me. I thought he loved me, but then he and my best friend turned against me. Sienna and our friends. She is from a small Italian Mafia family. Tony always wanted to become a part of the Italian Mafia and get a lot of money. I guess he thought she was a better candidate than me." Megan laughs.

"I am happy that you find it funny, but I am not sure that your father will find it amusing and will not come after me. I have worked hard to get where I am. I didn't have anything handed out to me like you, Princess. I had to build up my family from scratch, and my grandfather was not a good Don. My grandmother was the one running our family. She is going to be disappointed in me. But I am happy that you are happy. I forgot you are the princess of the Pistone family. You can do whatever you want to, and you can get away with it because your father is the godfather of the Italian mafia. I might as well piss you off because what does it help? I am not going to live long enough to see another day. The Casella family is going to take me out. You wanted a contract for your boyfriend. They sent me to give it to him to sigh. I ended up marrying you." I say.

"I told you not to worry about it, and I will be pleased if you do not tell anybody who I am. I don't want them to think like you. You think I am a princess? Do you know that I have trained since I was a child? I did not have a childhood. From the beginning, we were taught to be dons and donas. Do you think that is easy? However, I do not feel sorry for myself. I know I am privileged to be part of the Pistone family. Can you please not tell your family who I am? I promise you, nobody will touch you. You are not going to die. Dammit, get a grip on yourself." Megan says.

"Listen, princess, I am a hard-working man. I worked my ass off to get where I am today. I do not want to lose it all because I made one mistake. I didn't know who you were. Can't we please annul this marriage? It was a mistake. I would rather face my grandmother and Mia Lorenzo than your father and uncles." I say.

"Listen. You were willing to hide behind my skirt to escape marrying your childhood friend. Do not worry. You can hide behind my skirt when we face my father and uncles." Megan teases me.

"I am not hiding behind your skirt. I did not want my grandma and mother to rule my life anymore. They always play on my feelings. They know I cannot say no to them when they cry. I am hiding from their tears, not from them. Mia is cunning. She is using them to get me. I never wanted her. I was never in love with her. I thought this was the best solution until I discovered who you were. Damn it. You are the Mafia Princess. Everybody knows Megan Pistone is off-limits to upcoming Dons like me. I do not know how you convinced your father to let you marry that scumbag. He was only after your money and what you could do for him. However, I do not understand how he was after your money if he did not know who you were." I say.

I will never understand women.

"Yeah, well, I helped him through university, and I helped him achieve everything he did. I was blinded by love, but I saw him now for what he is. He still thinks I am a nobody who cannot help him. And that is why he left me for my friend, Sienna. I need your help to take care of him, and I want him to know we are married. However, I do not want to kill him. At least not yet. I also don't want to kill Don Sala yet. He and his daughter are going to pay dearly. I am glad nobody knows who I am. My parents are very protective and do not want the identity of their children to be known to the world. We have a lot of enemies. Please, can you keep my identity a secret?" Megan asks.

I guess I can forget about annulling the marriage. I might as well play along with her.

"Fine, but if I die, I will haunt you for the rest of your life." I say.

"You will not die," Megan says. Her phone rings. She sighs before answering it.

"What do you want, Tony?" Megan asks.

He wants her back, but I will not say a word. Perhaps if he wants her back and she is still in love with him, she will forgive him, and I can get out of this marriage before I die. She laughs and looks at me.

"We need to get back to the banquet hall now." Megan laughs.

I look at her. She is gorgeous. However, I had better behave myself, or I might become shark food for real.
