Elijah's P.O.V
"Your coffee"
I turn in my chair to look at Camila. Her low voice gets me every time, I don't know he her voice is so calm all the time and barely audible.
She stood by my desk, dressed in an oversized grey dress shirt, with only a few buttons open, revealing her cresent moon necklace, a pair of black skinny jeans with rips in the knees and by the height she's standing, I'm guessing ankle boots. Her hair was cascading down her shoulders in amazing curls as she displayed her beautiful taunting smile.
"What're you doing here?" I ask, pulling my chair up to the desk.
"Can't I be nice to you for one day?" Camila asks with a pout.
I eye her skeptically, something was up.
"I don't know, you wouldn't be your usual self in that department" I replied while leaning back in my chair.
"Wow, I guess I'll just take my treats and go then" she says, shaking the two large cups she was holding in both hand

Camila's P.O.V "Is he really going to do that?" I ask Rosa, Josh's grandmother. She laughed as we watched Josh attempt to cooking us dinner. I was at his house for dinner tonight, I haven't been around his grandparents for a very long time now. Josh lived in a three story house near Venice Beach, it was a great view from his back porch, he really made his own name and I was proud of him. Rosa smiled at Josh, as did I. Rosa and Josh resembled each other, she had a pixie cut, grey hair but she still looked like she was in her late fortys, Rosa Bassett was beautiful, she was everything to Josh and to me as well, she was the mother I never had, no matter what. "Oh Rosie, you let the boy around the stove again" Martin says to his wife, shaking his head in disapproval. Martin Bassett was a pretty handsome man, he still wore surfer shirts and beach trunks, sandals, the works, he owned a surf shop on the b

Camila's P.O.V Elijah and Emilio made eye contact, they had a silent conversation with their eyes and Emilio nodded. He walked over to us and took my bag from my shoulder. "I'll take that" Emilio says slinging my bag on his shoulder, he gave his brother a pat on the shouder and then walked away. "Eli, you're home early" Judie says with a happy smile on her face. "And I'm wondering why I wasn't informed that we had company, this is my house after all, isn't it" Elijah says smugly, adjusting his tie, yep, he's gonna get a little hostile. My Dad always did stuff like this. Whenever he wanted me to co-operate with him, he would call Devon .Devon was the only person he could use to get to me. Devon Ramirez, he was a year older than Elijah, he was as tall as Elijah was but instead of black hair and green eyes, Devon had brown hair and blue eyes, he was handsome indded. He worked in his father's company, has his own departmen

Camila's P.O.V Dinner just ended and I was in the kitchen, trying not to correspond with anyone. They were all in the sitting room talking, my Dad and Luca were more than interested in the Clair contract than anything else that was said tonight and it was no surprise. Devon didn't say much about it to them, it was all they were interested in tonight, I'm guessing they only wanted to know how they could get on board, everything passes through me, Marcel and then Clair, I highly doubt they could get on board anything with Clair, he knew too much about their way of business. "So, you really married that kid?", my eyes turned to look at Devon, he stood a few feet away from me as I was seated at the island. "That's not of your business" I reply, looking down at my bowl of cereal. I just had to come in here and have something else, I needed the energy right now. My heart was beating in my chest, anymore surprises for

Camila's P.O.V "How do you even know what I' m going to say before I say it?" Emilio asks me, he was being his usual self and I shut him down as always. "Because I know once you open your mouth, nothing goods come from it" I shrugged, causing Elijah to laugh at his brother. We were seated in the kicthen, just ate breakfast and had nothing to do for the rest of the day, Elijah said he didn't have to go to work and Emilio had no club or party plans. It was morning now, but he was Emilio, he always ahd club plans or party plans, I was impressed. "You guys look cozy" Quinn says walking into the kitchen, she took a seat next to Elijah and started smiling. She was dressed for the pool, she never swims, so I don't see why she bothers to go out there, she just liked to show off her skinny arms and her skinng long legs. Quinn was not the original barbie, but she would love to be, it was more than obvious how she paraded around the plac

Elijah's P.O.VWhy I allow Camila to have her way is beyond me, she just bats her lashes and smiles, that's all she needed to get me tp do whatever she wanted. And that was exactly what she did to get me here in Paris.She was being extra sweet and using her soft voice, she didn't even ask, she only told me to get dressed and we're going somewhere nice, thousand miles across the globe. And complaining was something I never liked to do, I never had to complain a day in my life."I hope you know what you're doing" Dorian says, taking a seat next to on the chair out on the balcony."Mind elaborating?" I ask, already feeling the tension that was now in the air.Why was it that whenever two guys were sat in a room with a female they both cared about, there had to be so much tension?."Okay pretty boy" Dorian says, taking a deep breath and putting his glass cup on the coffee table.Here we go, whenever they started a

Camila's P.O.V"Okay, I'm off" Judie smiles at me from my room doorway.She was all dressed up, wearing a brown coat over her attire, I didn't ask to get a look at her outfit because I just know she's dressed for some work thing."Oh, off to New Zealand already?" I ask, sitting up and placing my iPad on the bed next to my many papers and pillows."Yes, the boss demands it" she chuckles, her eyes looked at me longily after a few seconds."What?" I ask confused, touching my face to see if there was something on it."Oh nothing dear, I just find it charming how much you've put into helping Elijah with his work, it seems you two have grown on each other already" Judie smiles, brushing some hair from her face.You sweet lady, she had the personailty of a sweet grandma and a loving aunt, I don't know how she does it, but she does it. She's always saying stuff like this, so sweet and caring."You people underestimate

Camila's P.O.VAfter I agreed to help Emilio, he skpped out of the kitchen with a glowing face. Leaving only me, Elijah and Chef alone, the duo were busy with their thoughts while I was busy eating my food, I don't have time for them to steal any more meals from me."Can I ask a favor also?" Elijah asks with his hand raised."I suppose, I will never live this down" I say with an eye roll and in a haha tone.Elijah chuckles and pulls my chair closer to him, Chef pushed my food toward me with a smile as he admired us being so close. Chef always admired me and Elijah being so close."Nope, so you might as well say yes" Elijah replies eyeing me, his eyes were glued to me as he stared.I turn my head while chewing the remainder of my sandwich. Our eyes locked and the atmosphere changed as it always did, he removed his jacket and tie and unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt. I could see his chest, still buff as I r

Camila's P.O.VJosh blew out a breath and moved some hair from his face. He looked exhausted, he had to be exhausted, he's been up all night typing and correcting mistakes."You okay?" I ask him, he looked at me and nodded his head."I'm good, I could use a banana smoothie right now" he says, going deep in thought, making me smile."Okay, I'll ask Chef to make it for you, be right back" I say getting up from my seated position and hurrying out the door.Josh came over yesterday and hasn't gone home since. Good thing we don't pack light whenever we're going anywhere. He had packed extra clothes just in case he had to stay the night, and of course he stayed in my room. I wasn't crazy enough to have him stay anywhere else, if my parents saw him, they would bug him and make fun of him and even though he's making six figures, I don't care. I won't allow anyone to make fun of him.They always tried to treat him less than us, becua
