Chapter 24
I sat out on the balcony overlooking the pool and ate slowly. Damanico and a few other guys were down there in tuxedos eyeing the girls while they ordered their food from the bar. Damanico looked up and saw me and I blushed a little. I waved and he smiled making the other guys look up to see who he was smiling at.
One of them said something to Damanico and he playfully belted him and they all laughed. I looked at them then left and went back inside. I put my plate into the sink and took a book from my shelf and sat out on my balcony reading and inhaling the scent of flowers down below. I was soon lost in the pages of King Arthur and his men that I didn't hear Xavier sneaking up behind me.
"You're not still mad at me, are you Royalty?" he asked leaning on the glass door
I jumped violently and looked up at him.
"What do you want?" I hissed fiercely
"Watch your mouth with me." Xavier shot back and I shook a little "I'll make you regret it if you keep being such a bitch!"
That was the first time I saw him so fierce with me.
"You've got to be a real bitch to still be mad at me!" he said "Can't you see I care about you? If you want to die you've got my full authority to leave this house. I told the men not to stop you so you're free to go. When you get hurt or raped don't come running back with any belly. Leave if you want, I'm not going to bother about you anymore. You can't understand when someone cares about you being alive so you can enjoy life and move on from your past in Miami."
I looked at him in shock.
Xavier was thinking of me? That's why he threatened me just like Damanico said! He actually cared even if I didn't care about disobeying his orders. He cared about my feelings.
He turned to go.
"Xavier!" I called and he stopped but didn't turn around.
I walked up to him and stood in front of him. Tears began to fall down my face.
"I won't leave." I said "I won't disobey your orders or let you change your rules because I'm being such bitch. I'm sorry."
He wrapped his arms around my waist and opened his mouth to speak.
"Sssh." I softly said putting a finger on his lips softly "Don't talk Xav. Just stay there."
He opened his mouth and bit my finger and the pounding started inside my panty. He dried my tears with the pad of his thumb while he bit my finger. He slowly released my finger and I looked up into his eyes which were soft and gentle right then. I looked up and he bent his head and our lips brushed slightly but someone knocked on the door.
Who is the ass interrupting the moment!
"Come in." I said pulling away from Xavier a little
Damanico walked in.
I take that back! D. could interrupt any time!
"Sorry." he apologized "Did I interrupt something?"
"No." Xavier said casually "We'll see later baby girl."
Xavier walked passed me and turned his head to the side a little and I saw him bite his lip at me and the sledgehammer went out of control. I pulled the hem of my skirt trying to control myself so Damanico won't notice Xavier had me getting wet as well as his every touch on my body sent butterflies and sparks flying. It was so different from Damanico.
Damanico's POV
I walked in to see Xavier and Royalty together. I was a little shocked but I didn't let it show. He left a little while and I went sweet with Rei.
"Have you eaten lunch as yet?" I asked her smiling at her and closing the door
"It's afternoon already?" she asked in surprise
"Um.. yeah." I answered wondering why she was so surprised
"I hadn't eaten." she said "I was reading and lost track of time."
Her belly growled and she covered her belly in embarrassment and I stifled a laugh.
"Let's grab something to eat." I suggested and opened the door for her
She nodded and walked out and I came after closing the door behind me. We down to the pool and ordered food and sat in the shade of a tree eating.
"Was everything alright with you and Xav?" I asked curiously "I'm not prying but you looked a little sad."
"Its fine." she said taking a bite of her sandwich "We just apologized for the misunderstanding."
"Oh ok." I said through a mouthful
What I had seen didn't seem just an apology. It seemed more like something was happening before and I interrupted. I hope he hadn't touched her considering that Xavier was one of the bosses who had relationships with no strings attached. He just wanted a girl just for the moment and no for every.
I don't want Royalty getting too close to Xavier. Boss or not but it can backfire as he has a strong hatred for relationships.
I leaned over to Royalty and whispered in her ear.
"Sleep with me again tonight babe." I said softly and she blushed red
"S-sure." she answered
We finished eating and I left her and went back to work. I was thinking of her while I worked. I had to get her attention away from Xavier and to me. I wanted Royalty.
Royalty's POV
I met the strange girl again on my way to the kitchen for a packet of chips.
"Hold it!" she said stopping me as I walked pass her in the kitchen
The others looked up. I turned around to face her.
"Who the heck are you?" she asked putting her hands on her hips "And why you being such a bitch with me? Don't you know who I am?"
I could tell she had a diva-ish streak. Cristiano shook his head and got up before I could answer.
"Don't me so harsh Nagi." Cristiano scolded her and she pouted.
He then turned to me.
"Forgive my diva of a younger sister Nagisah." Cristiano said pulling the girls cheeks while she pouted
"Younger sister?!" I asked in amazement
