On the throne as Godfather(BWWM- Book 2 of the Godfather Series)

Ch 12 The plan

Ch 12

Hey guys I know I have not updated in a while but if you guys are still interested in this book I would like to continue and update chapters regularly. If you guys are over it then I will not continue it and there will be no hard feelings. I understand.

I made minor edits to the first book a while ago. The edits are that:

Annabel's sister name is now Katherine

Annabel's brothers name is Jordan

Daniel (2nd In command/underboss, Sammy's favorite cousin) is 22; double majored in business and math and graduated as Valedictorian with a 4.0 GPA at a prestigious university. He works at Mussolini's moving company and started when he was 13 years old; professional and mature when it comes to the family business but acts like a typical spoiled teen (even now as an adult) if it is not work-related.

Ch 12

Annabel POV

When Christina and I came back we told the story about Veronica to Sammy and Anthony. Anthony did not think it was a clever idea because either Sammy or I will end up hurt. However, Sammy agreed since he wants her to stop chasing him. Christina said we cannot tell our family members about this plan or nobody will come to it and It will get out what is going on. So, we all agreed to keep this a secret and pretend Sammy and I are back together. I cannot believe we are doing this, but it is too late to back out now.

Sammy POV

Annabel went upstairs to put her clothes away in her room leaving Christina and Anthony alone with me in her kitchen

"Christina, I know what you are doing. Thanks, but it's not going to work" I said to Christina

"what are you talking about" she asked

"orchestrating the whole engagement party"

"You know Veronica and her crazy self is the reason for this." She said in a duh tone

"You knew veronica will be there and you instigated it"

"No, I didn't"

"Really because I recall you saying just last month how every Saturday Veronica shops at Victoria Secret at 10am so you don't go then to avoid her craziness. I know you purposely brought Annabel there because you know, heck anyone Veronica has ever encountered knows Veronica would freak over something like this because she actually thinks we are meant to be together and she wants to be Donna (wife of Godfather) and would just go to the party to see if it's a lie because she can't fathom how I could ever pick someone over her.

Then Anthony added "you may be a good liar and trick everyone else including our parents, but Sammy and I can see right through your bullshit. You so happened to have the card in your bag and have this wild idea to not tell anyone except us about the engagement. Really?"

"fine I planned this but come on. Sammy you know you and Annabel are perfect together and you are both miserable without each other and Anthony, Annabel just needs a little push in the right direction. I sat on the sidelines for too damn long and allowed Ms. And Mr. Dramatic to wallow in their pain." Christina stated

"Christina, I am standing right here, and I tried to talk to her, but she refused to listen to me" I say

"Don't give me that bullshit, you know you acted like a pussy. I know you have been stalking her house every night. You could of just rang her doorbell any of those times you were outside of her house, but you wait till you get shot to knock on her door because you did not want to die. If I knew that is all it would take for you to contact her I would have shot you myself but if You rather me talk behind your back which I will then leave the room" she said frustrated

"I didn't want to push her too hard. I was trying to give her space" I said

"By stalking her"

"I haven't been stalking her" I insist

"Then what are you doing over on this side of NY"

"checking up on her"

She just did a fake laugh "Ok Sammy" she said sarcastically

"I don't think you should go through with it, this will end in despair." Anthony tries to convince me

"Anthony, Christina shouldn't have done this but she did and I am tired of doing nothing. Christina is right what do I have to lose? Spending time with Annabel might remind her why she fell in love with me. I must at least try and even if this changes nothing and after the engagement we go back to the way it is now at least I can be happy and have peace of mind for just a little while. Its better then feeling miserable. You never had your heart broken before Anthony, so you do not know what I am going through. I feel like I am in withdrawal and all I ever think about is her. When I am awake if I am not keeping my mind preoccupied I think about her and how we used to be. When I sleep that is the worst. It is all about her and the guilt I feel. I know I caused this mess and I get flashbacks about the look she gave me the night I rescued her and how she gave me back her ring which was made specifically for her. I have developed insomnia from this hell that has been consuming my mind on repeat and I have been working nonstop so there is not one moment that my mind can drift onto her. I am tired Ant. I'm emotionally drained" I say exhausted

"Sammy you are right I never had my heart broken. But do not act like I do not have the slightest idea what you have been going through and do not act like your hurt does not affect me or others. I have watched you from the sidelines and I have been hurt seeing my big brother being hurt. You are my big bro and you know I will always back you no matter what. I just want you to be careful. You know I love you and I love Annabel like a sister and I cannot bear to see either of you hurt. I know you are hurt right now and for the last past months but if Annabel decides not to take you back after this whole ordeal I do not want you to spiral downwards. I do not even want to imagine how much deeper in pain you will be. I do not want to see you destroyed even further. I fear this can break you if does not go according to plan. I do not know how I am supposed to handle you being broken. I barely know what to do now. I already lost you once when I was a kid. How am I supposed to deal with losing you again but this time emotionally?"

"Thanks Anthony for your concern and I am sorry this has affected you too but can you please just let Annabel and I do this. Do not interfere, just be my brother and be there for me.

"All right, I really do hope and pray this works out for you. I will do whatever you need to get her back" he says while Christina is smiling in the background.

Hey guys I hope you enjoyed this story. Do you think it was a good idea for Sammy to go through with this plan. Do you think Sammy will end up hurt or Annabel or both. Did anyone suspect that Christina planned this.
