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.

Not A Book Heist

They arrived at Dawn Grace Library fifteen minutes short before closing time. 

With no appointment.

Keira took a deep, steadying breath. She told herself that Nate was a mafia lord who easily broke into her apartment and cleaned her place, not an average library patron who knew it was mandatory to book an appointment before visiting. 

The puppy eyes Nate sent her way only fueled her anger.

"You dragged me to a two hours drive out of town out of the blue without making an appointment first? Are you out of your mind?!" 

He held up a hand. "First, I didn't drag you. I offered you a hand to take, but you clearly ignored it."

"No, you don't. Besides, I would never take your hand even if you really offered It to me."

Nate continued as if he didn't hear her. "Then, how should I know that I need to book an appointment first before visiting a library? Isn't it a public service place where people can easily read and borrow books?"
