Chapter: 36I closed my room door softly.What an hour?Chrissy had lectured me for about an hour in rapid Italian and he swore a lot. I knew he was really mad when he swore. I started to pull up my shirt when there was a soft knock on the door."Come in." I calledAlessandro opened the door and walked in with a laptop under his arm. He closed the door quietly and I pulled my shirt over my head. He looked away a little."That's distracting Veah." he teased"Oh shut up." I rolled my eyes and turned to him "Like you haven't seen me naked before. We took baths together as kids. That's how close we were. What age did we stop?""Fourteen." he answered"When your hormones kicked in." I smirked"True." he stuck his tongue out at me then studied my breasts for a while "You got bigger."I playfully swatted his arm knowing he was right. He knew me inside out like Xavier as he was my childhood best friend and he still was."What do you want?" I unzipped my skirt and let it fall as a pool around my ankles"I

Chapter: 35Cardinal's POV"Have you found the girl yet?" I asked Jonas impatiently while I paced the meeting room.We were all gathered for a meeting as we heard that Royalty disappeared without a trace."No sir." Jonas reported "We've searched everywhere.""I don't get it." I thought hard still pacing "She just vanished into thin air. Jennifer says it is a mystery still for Xavier.""Well what do we do?" Alfred asked me smoking a cigar "We've got to find the girl.""Janos search again and search good." I told him "We've got to find that girl. If she becomes too close to Xavier she'll be legally his and if she disappears and something happens we lose her."Neveah's POVDamanico was really sweet. He took me out for dinner in a fancy restaurant one night. He was a real gentleman and in casuals he looked really sexy. I swear I must have drooled the minute her picked me up in the limo. I went to Liza's house so my brothers won't know. Liza or Elizabeth was my other best friend."You look absolutely

Chapter: 34"D-D-Damanico." I stammered "You're alive?"We stared at each other intensely. The atmosphere was mixed with shock and confusion."What the hell are you doing here?" he asked me fiercely looking around"What?" I asked confused "Just taking a stroll. Why?""Don't you know the Swedish are hunting around now for any part of your twin's mafia and you could be killed?" he hissed fiercely at meI looked at him blankly and he grabbed my hand and pulled me into the thick trees. I wanted question him but I was way too confused to talk. He pulled my until I spotted a black Porsche 918 Spyder parked and waiting."Get in." he said to me and I did as I was told.Soon we were on the main road heading for the cliffs at the edge of a forest. I was quiet as he parked and turned off the engine and turned to me furiously."What made you leave without security?' he almost yelled "You know the rules Neveah!""What give you the right to yell at me you kidnapper!" I yelled back "Where's Royalty and how did

Chapter: 33I was wrapped in his muscular arms as we kissed. The room was dark and the spotlight was on us. His tongue gently stroked my lips and I smiled against his before letting him in. The darkness soon faded and we were now in a bedroom. He pulled away slowly and I then realized that he was fading. I desperately tried to grab him but his disappeared. I then realized someone coming out from the shadows and I gasped as she smirked wickedly at me and he appeared behind her with his arms around her waist kissing her deeply. Tears began to flow down my face until images of them circled me and I screamed out his name 'Xavier!'My eyes snapped open immediately and I felt my chest. My heart was racing and I felt a little uneasy. I heard the door open softly and my back was towards it. I shut my eyes immediately and heard soft footsteps coming closer. I opened my eyes a tiny creak and saw a shirtless muscular body in front the closet searching for something. As he moved his muscles flexed and arched

Chapter: 32I opened my eyes slowly and yawned a little. I looked around a little confused. I wasn't back at the mansion. The walls of the room were neatly painted white and had white tiles. The room had a table stacked with books and a full bookshelf. There were three doors besides the main door. One lead to the bathroom, the other for the closet and the third was for the balcony.Where am I?I felt a hand touch my forehead slightly and I jumped a little and turned my head. Damanico was sitting next to me on the edge of the bed as he gently ran his hand over my forehead."Has the headache pass?' he asked softly"Yes." I nodded and looked around the room "Where am I?""At my house in Alfarami Harbor and you're currently in my room on my bed." he answered"You slept with me?" I asked turning on my side to face him"Would you freak out if I told you I did?" he ran his finger through his hair and looked at the floorI smiled at his shyness."Have you forgotten that we've slept together?' I asked wit

Chapter: 31I poured some of the blue powder into his water and gave it a good shake. He was practicing boxing with a sandbag and I was in the shadows doing my dirty work. I replaced his bottle in the same spot and snuck away before returning a few minutes later but with a lot of noise."Hey babe." I waved and he looked up"Hi Jenn." he smiled at me."Here drink some." I took up his water bottle "I don't want you dehydrated."He chuckled and took the water from me and took a sip. I smiled to myself.He's all mine now."Want to go out for dinner later?" he asked me"Sure." I answered "Where are we going?""That's a secret Jenn." he teased me and stuck his tongue out at me.I went up to him and kissed his cheek."You need a shower." I joked "You stink."He rolled his eyes playfully."Tell me something I don't know." he said"You're sweaty and you're bathing with me." I answered and he laughed"I'll be there in a while." he took another sip of water"Alright." I smiled and went off.Xavier's POVI d

Stepping out of the cap with piping hot coffee in one hand, her handbag on the crook of her arm, her other hand holding onto a black hard cover book and her phone while she spoke into her Bluetooth, she walked to the entrance of her company."No, I'm not home today...You told me get a job so I'm going to get one...Dad!...Alright fine. Love you...Yes, I'll call later."She ended the call with a playful eye roll. She arrived at the door and with skillful maneuvering, she somehow managed to open it without dropping anything. She was greeted by a cheerful Hannah, who was always punctual since her first day on the job."Good morning, Ms. CEO.""Good morning, Hannah."Watching her boss head towards the elevator, Hannah looked like she was caught in a daze. She had heard countless rumors about the ill tempered and bad mouthe
