Mafia Lord's Librarian: A Satire of Love at First Sight

Keira Hawkins thought that the new library patron, Nate, was disgusted by the birthmark decorating her face. But then, he asked to go on a date with her during their next meeting. The innocence of love at the first sight turned dangerously annoying when Nate refused to leave her side. Thankfully, with a mean slap to the face, done rightly in public by her mighty right hand, had rendered Nate to cease his nonsensical doings. And yet... One unsuspecting morning, she woke up on the most comfortable bed, in an unfamiliar room, cradled in the arms of a gorgeous man she crowned as the most annoying patron of the week. "You're the one who came to me," whispered Nathaniel Wolfe – the mafia lord who reigns over the east side of the country. It wouldn't be easy to shake him off. Moreover when she found a locked door in the library basement - the entrance to where some lost treasures were hidden in the maze, or so Nate said. Intrigued, Keira joined Nate on his quest to find the lost treasures before another mafia family find it first.

Monosyllabic Reaction

The first thing Nathaniel Wolfe said to Keira Hawkins after pulling a big stunt involving a fake gas leak and fire in her library, without informing her of it to her, was, "What are you doing here?"

His low voice reached her ears, bringing forth a sudden fury previously buried under worry and fear. She had panicked over his well-being, and he just casually sauntered to her, innocently asking 'her' of what she was doing there.

The nerve!

Keira rose to her feet, levelling her eyes to his towering form. "Do I mean so little to you?" She asked, instead.

Nate reeled back, brows knitting as he didn't expect such a question to be uttered out of the blue. "Why are you asking that?"

See?

He was really inconsiderate, she thought to herself.

"Because you clearly think so!" Keira snapped, stomping away with her flat shoes, making heavy thud along the dark alley where she had been hiding from the reporters for almost half an hour.
