Xander's POV '' You want me to teach you?'' I asked, just to be sure. '' Yes, is that a problem?'' Bella let out. '' But why me? You know I can get you one of my best men to teach you all that you need to know?'' I asked, and Bella rolled her eyes. '' I have told you, you are the Draco. You are supposed to be the best and I want to learn from the best,'' she answered. I looked at her for a while, and then I nodded. '' Okay, we will have it your way, but keep in mind that I will not take it easy on you. How I train my men is how I will train you,'' I let out as I made sure she knew what she was getting herself into. '' Good when do we start,'' Bella asked. ' Now,'' I answered. '' What?'' Bella let out, shocked and I smirked at her reaction. '' You wanted me to train, is that not so? Then we will start today. The shooting practice is over,'' I smirked and said. Bella scoffed as she rolled her eyes and walked towards the car. We soon made our way out of the shooting range, and
Isabella's POV Our eyes locked with each other, it felt like we were in a little world of our own, and nothing else mattered, because even as much as I knew I was supposed to pull away, I didn't want to. '' Your eyes still captivate me,'' Xander whispered as he stuck some loose strands of hair behind my ear. '' I am sorry, I am sorry, this is all my fault,'' I let out as I tried to get off him, but surprisingly Xander didn't let me go, he just held me even tighter in his arms. '' Don't go,'' Xander whispered to me and to the heaven I truly didn't want to go, but I knew that if I didn't, if I stayed, even if it was for a little bit, I wouldn't be able to control myself. '' I think that is enough training for today,'' I whispered as I forced myself off him, slowly getting up to my feet. '' Okay, I will see you tomorrow then,'' Xander stood up, saying. '' See you tomorrow,'' I whispered as I left the gym and made my way up to my room. As soon as I got in, Mia was seated there with
Isabella's POV I never expected Xander to show up at my door by this time, but here he is wanting to train at that break of dawn. I hated it, it was too early, and I was barely awake, but I guess it was all my fault. Because I asked him to teach me how to fight. Reluctantly, I got ready and followed him to the gym. ''Why are you making me do this at this time? It is way too early. Who trains at this time,'' I asked him and he smirked. '' Well, I do. For me it is the best time,'' Xander answered. '' It is a bad time for me, I need sleep,'' I grumbled, and Xander rolled his eyes. '' you asked for this, so you have to deal with it unless you do not want me to teach you how to fight anymore,'' Xander let out and I grumbled. '' Fine, have it your way,'' I said. We soon started the training and Xander was the worst but also the best coach anyone could ask for. '' Come on, maintain your stance,'' Xander said as he continued to teach me. Hours went by, and the training got even mor
Isabella's POV '' You look beautiful,'' Mia said as she put some finishing touches on me. '' Yes my girl, you look like the princess you are,'' Mary let out with a smile on her face. Smiling, I looked at myself in the mirror and, indeed, I looked beautiful. '' Thank you,'' I smiled and said nervously. I was nervous as hell. I know you might ask why. This was not my first time going out with the Draco, so I don't even know why I am this nervous. ''Maybe because those times were different, and now I am going out with him as his date,'' I said to myself, as I took in a deep breath. ''Come on, you have to get going, I am sure the boss is waiting for you,'' Mary let out, breaking me out of my invading thought. So, with a nervous smile, I nodded my head and Mia handed me my purse with a smile on her face. '' Have fun okay, and don't overthink this,'' Mia smiled, saying as she hugged me goodbye, pushing me out of the door. I walked down the stairs, with my hands shaking like a leaf
Isabella's POVEverything felt like it was moving in slow motion. Xander was in my arms and I was covered in his blood as I screamed at the now chaotic crowd of people, but it felt like my voice was being drowned out in the chaos.I looked at Xander's unconscious form with my heart racing profusely in my chest as tears ran down my eyes. Even more. I tried to pressure his wound so he wouldn't bleed out. Because at that moment I didn't know what else to do, even though I was currently thinking of a million things all at the same time.'' Please don't die,'' I whispered incessantly at him as I continued to scream for help.Luckily for me, I saw Ryan. One of Xander's men ran up to us.'' Help me, please help him,'' I cried out.'' Don't worry, the Draco will be okay,'' He said as he took out his phone, calling god knows who.'' The Draco is down, I repeat the Draco is down, I need all the men on the floor right now,'' He said on the phone.And just like magic, the place was filled with ma
Isabella's POVSurprisingly, I slept through the night, and by the time I woke up, it was already noon.'' Xander,'' my mind immediately went over to him, as I hurried out of bed.'' Isabella,'' I soon heard Mary immediately call out to me.'' I need to go and see him,'' I let out.'' Do you want to change first,'' Mary asked.'' No, I don't want to, I am fine like this,'' I said, running out of the room before she could stop me.'' Wait, I will come with you,'' Mary let out running after her.I hurried to the room where Xander was being kept, and it was guarded by two men. I wanted to enter but the men stopped me.'' What is this, why are you stopping me? why can't I see him,'' I yelled, but the men didn't answer me, as they acted as if I was not even speaking.'' Am I not talking? I want to see the Draco and I want to see him now,'' I yelled as I tried to enter his room, but I was stopped again.'' What is this, what is going on,'' I yelled, but these men kept acting as if I was not
Isabella's POVIt had been over a week and I still hadn't seen or heard anything about Xander or how he was doing. Xavier still had the order not to let me into his room, and honestly, I was slowly losing my mind, sleep had now become a stranger to me, and food now tasted sour in my mouth.My mind kept racing profusely, as so many negative thoughts ran through my head. I didn't know what to think anymore, as I kept dismissing the idea in my head that Xander was dead because it looked like Xavier was trying to take over.I had even hoped that Mary would bring news of Xander's well-being, but there had been nothing from her, as she kept on saying that she was still not allowed in there.I was frustrated, I even tried defiling all the odds, and just busting in there to see him, but every time I tried, Xavier was there to stop me, and right now I didn't know what to do anymore.'' Ugh, god I really can not take this anymore,'' I let out as I looked at Mary who was still seated there looki
Isabella's POV'' What? No that can not be,'' Manny let out, standing up to his feet as he looked at me in disbelief.'' He was shot at the city's charity ball,'' I said, and Manny still didn't believe it.'' How did it happen? Who did it? Was he not supposed to be with his men?'' Manny asked me so many questions all at the same time.'' Manny, it all happened so fast. First, there was an explosion, and then before I knew it, Xander was on the floor bleeding out. I didn't see the person responsible,'' I tried to clarify.'' Oh my goodness, why did no one call us, his father doesn't know,'' Manny let out as he took out his phone.'' What are you doing?'' I asked.'' Calling his father, of course, Agustín has to know what happened to his son,'' Manny answered.He was on the phone for a while, and when he was done he turned back to me.'' Agustín will be here tonight, but tell me, how is he? I want to see him,'' Manny said and my face fell in dismay.'' Isabella, what is going on? Where
