ASA " I want you to kiss me. Please, Ace." She whispers, with her fingers trailing down on my nape.    With my arms around her waist, I rub it up her back through the silk night dress and back to her waist. I'm tempted to go further. To grab her ass and feel it in my palms, but I don't do it. " What are you waiting for?" She whispers, fisting my shirt and pulling me into her. " Shit. You're not drunk, are you?" I ask her. She giggles, her fingers trailing down my chest, down my torso to the waistline of my pants. She touches me through my pants and bites her lip. " Do I sound drunk?" " Fuck." I grab her wrist and pull it off of me. She frowns and stares into my eyes. " We can't."    There's hurt in her eyes as she stares at me. " You can't kiss me, yeah?" She nods and pulls away, walking back t

AVA  It's been a week since my encounter with Nathan Xavier and his sons. My shoulder is healing and it's better than before. There's a slight fading scar on my shoulder and each time I look at it, I just wanna rip out Athena's blonde hair and leave her completely bald. Fucking bitch.    This past week had been pretty busy for me. I had at least two dates with two crime bosses this past weekend and it was disastrous. There was a gun fight with one while the other I actually had a narrow escape. It wasn't really friendly. Giovanni's was kinda easy since he's a sucker for women.    I haven't seen Asa since the day his father showed up. I even called him on his phone and he acted like he was busy. He's been avoiding me and it's annoying. What's his shit? The look on his eyes when he saw his brother making out with me gave me signs that he would definitely avoid me and that's exactly what he's doing and it pisses me off.&n

ASA       With Ava on my shoulder, I walk her to my bedroom, both of us butt naked. She won't stop giggling as I gently throw her on my bed. She leans on both her elbows as she looks at my naked form, anticipating. Her eyes drinks my form, eyeing my naked torso to my erected cock." So how many women have you brought to your bed?" She asks still watching me." None." I say as a matter of fact. I don't bring women to my bed not for any fucking reason at all. Not even my guest bedrooms. We fuck in the couch, period. And they're smart enough not to ask me why I don't bring them to my bed." What? Then where do you fuck?" She asks. The word 'fuck' sounding so strange coming out of her mouth. She don't usually swear and when she does it's so fucking sexy." My couch." I shrug.   She looks at me with different emotions in her eyes and differ

AVA         I quietly sit my ass down and look around Asa's office, taking in the view of the city below. Asa pulls out a cigarette and lights it, his blue eyes finds mine and he looks so damn good. " You want something?" " Iced tea." I tell him. He nods and clicks the button on the intercom, it beeps. " Bring iced tea to my office." He says into the intercom as he turns his view to the city, smoking like a dragon. " How many clubs do you have?" I ask out of the blue. Asa looks at me from above his shoulders like I've gone crazy.    He looks away, the smoke of his cigarette crowd his view. " Don't ask questions, Ava. You don't need to know more than you've already known." He says. " It's better for everyone when you want to leave."    I sigh and nod, looking at my lap and playing with

AVA  " How come you speak Italian?" I ask Asa, dragging down my skirt on his leather seat.    I watch him handling the wheel with a new cigarette in between his lips. He turns to look at me on the passenger seat, eyes taking in my form as he smirks." You're so curious, aren't you?" He looks back at the road, spurring out his smoke. " Well yeah. You spoke in that language in Florence. And your father, Nick, and you, communicated with it back at the mansion. Did you learn it or you guys are Italians?"    He sighs and stays quiet for another minute." Our mom is Italian. And our father's mother is also Italian. So that's where we got the language from. Mom is full born, including my maternal grandmother." He answers and I nod. " Where's she? Your mom?" I ask. Asa's jaw clenched as he stares intently at the road.    He hates the topic and I'm hating mys
