I woke up to the sound of my alarm. Shit.I threw on a dress . I'm ready to be the most hated person at school .I ran downstairs. Denice was cooking food . "Hey Denice , if anyone asks , I'm at school" I quickly told her as I put on my shoes . "I thought Ace didn't want you to go" Denice questioned me as she flipped the pancakes . "My mouths mainly healed , I'll be fine" I assured her . "Okay .... but he won't be too happy" she warned me , pointing the spatula at me . "When is he ever happy" I giggled as I walked out . I heard her say something but I ignored it .I strolled carelessly to school .I reached the entrance and walked in . Everyone gave me dirty looks as I walked down the hall . Really ? Already .I walked to class . The crowds slowly rolled in as the class the filled .The teacher tried to teach as they all whispered stuff about me . All I could make out was them asking who Ace was . "She's such a drama queen" "I heard she bet the shit out of Ryder" "I heard she slept wi
I jolted up from having a nightmare. Ace wasn't beside me and I couldn't remember much from last night. I remember drinking wine, getting sick and then he asked me to the dance. I tried harder to remember but it was mostly a blur.I stared at my hand, remembering that I held his hand as I fell asleep. I blushed at the memories that came flooding back only to get a massive migraine. I held my head in pain as I heard heavy footsteps approaching the room.Ace walked in. "You're awake" his tone was back to being blatant and lifeless. "Yeah" I sighed, my hand still on my head. "Everyone's gone" He informed me. Things were slightly awkward now between us, I could feel the tension in the air. "Pills....for your migraine" He tossed them to me. "Thanks" I muttered."I have to go and....do some stuff for work, Dante is going to take you shopping to get your dress for the ball" Ace muttered while he searched for something."When?" I stood up, taking the pills. "In 15 minutes" Ace replied careles
I slipped on my heels."Sofia, we're ready to leave" Denice shouted up at me from the entrance."I'm coming" I said loudly, grabbing my bag and walking out. I walked down the stairs, Ace's mother had stolen his attention so he was facing away from me. His mom gasped at the sight of me, covering her mouth with her hands.I watched as Ace turned around. I saw his jaw drop slightly and his eyes widen. Kai instantly scoffed and walked out. Ace snapped his head back to his father, giving his father a threatening look."I'm sorry I took so long" I muttered to Ace as I played with hands. He grabbed my them gently. "You annoy me so much when you do that" he admitted, still holding them tightly. I stared into Ace's eyes, my heart was pounding. He looked down at our hands. Before I could say anything, he shook his head and walked out. What was that about?."Sofia" someone shouted. I turned my head only to see Olivia running down the driveway. "What the fuck!" Ace growled . "He's a bad person" s
Ace walked around, greeting people. I just followed him like a lost duckling.Fancy music played in the background and some people were even holding glasses of wine. It's weird to think Kai set this all up.Ace finally went up to someone with a wife. "Ace" Someone smiled at him, shaking his hand. "Mr.Caldez" Ace replied with a hint of annoyance in his voice; Ace chatted to the man as I stared at his wife. She had a ring. "I'm Liz" she smiled politely. "I'm Sofia" I shook her hand. "So, how's Ace doing?" She asked me curiously. "He's good, he complains a lot" I rolled my eyes and she giggled. "You're brave, I like you" Liz grinned at me. "Thanks but I'm not that brave" I grabbed water off of one of the waiters as they passed."Would you not have some wine?" She asked questioningly. "No" I grinned sheepishly. "I'm only 17" I admitted. "Honey, we're all murders, no one will care if you have a glass of wine" she nodded. "Have you trained at all?" I asked her, switching the subject. "Oh go
"Have I got your attention" Kai announced excitedly.I spotted Dante, Ice and Kaylo with their plus ones. Dante was with his girlfriend, I'm pretty sure he told us loved her. I'm happy for him."All of you are somehow apart of our Mafia, from being apart of the main branch or being an affiliate" Kai was almost reminding them."So, remind me of our most definite rules" Kai smiled evilly.Everyone started to chant; this shit was like a cult meeting."Mafia before love""Mafia before life""The only way out is to die""Die" I squealed at Ace but he didn't even flinch. He wasn't chanting either though. I could tell he was trying to foreshadow what was coming up."So after reading out our most definite rules, this is what this years event is about. To prove your loyalty, this years event or task as I would like to put it is........". Kai looked in my direction and mouthed, 'you won't survive'. Ace didn't see his father mouthing because he was too lost in thought."I want you to slit the th
We reached Ace's mansion and as soon as I entered I immediately changed into comfier clothes.I decided to head downstairs to see how Ace was doing; After all, he did ruin his 'reputation'.I couldn't tell what he was feeling, he was very hard to read. "I need to clean your cut" he muttered whilst he rubbed his forehead stressfully. I followed him into the kitchen, silenced by shock. I couldn't believe that he didn't kill me."Sit on the counter" Ace mumbled as he grabbed the first aid kit. He placed it next to me as he stared at the cut on my neck. "Why didn't you kill me?" I finally gathered the courage to ask, not able to resist any longer. "My father took it too far this year!" Ace snapped as he poured alcohol onto a cotton ball. "Yeah but that still doesn't explain why you didn't kill me?" I shrugged curiously. "Would you kill me?" He stared at me intensely. "No" I spoke with a blatant tone."There you go, that's your answer, can you explain why because I can't" he rambled annoye
Sexual scenes are ahead so just skip to the next chapter if you don't want to read it.Ace slammed the door shut after Ice, locking it. I saw that Ace had his forehead against the door. "Ace you ok?" I asked nervously, hoping I hadn't made him angry by the little stunt I pulled. Ace didn't say anything.Instead, he stormed over in my direction with a furious look on his face. He grabbed my waist and pulled me close to him. So close that I could feel his breath on my skin."I'll return the favour" he informed as he kissed my neck, making my legs weak. He grabbed the back of my neck, kissing deeply; A soft moan escaping my lips as he continued."Ace?" I muttered nervously, breaking the contact between his lips and my skin. He grunted in response, shaking his head, signalling that he didn't want to stop. I glanced down to see his bulge had become more prominent. I won't lie, apart of me felt accomplished.I inched towards him slowly. "You don't have too" he warned me, catching his breath
A few days had passed and I was getting tired of being trapped in the mansion. Ace was always out working too so it's not like I could annoy him.I grabbed the house phone and dialled Ace's number. It took a few tries but eventually answered with an unpleasant tone. "Hello" his deep, husky voice said through the phone. "Heyyy" I bit my bottom lip nervously. "Sofia, what's wrong?" Ace asked. I could hear some noises in the background. "I'm bored, can I go out to get food?" I questioned quickly, praying that he would let me out of the house for a day. I heard his frustrated sigh through the phone. "Take a body guard" He said exhaustedly, having no energy to argue with me. "Thank you" I squealed happily, cheering forgetting Ace was on the phone. "Oh- Uh bye" I uttered awkwardly into the phone."Sofia be careful!" Ace yelled through the phone. "I'll be the most careful person you ever met, ok bye" I uttered quickly, hanging up the phone before he could change his mind. I called Terry, Ace
