Xavion . "So what exactly do you want me to do, Xav?" Hendrix's eyes roamed around. This place is smaller than where he came from. But it's enough for him to stay and be away from the crowd. "Let me guess. You need my help, right?" His thin lips curved with a grimace. "Okay. I get it." He turned around and slumped onto the soft recliner. "My people are on the move anyway. I suspect it has something to do with the Montadamme and the Langley. They didn't move much but killed a lot of mafia lives in the lower ranks. They also took over their businesses. It seems like the Montadamme is not too keen to look for Quinn." My vision cleared. That's good to know about it, as I have other priorities in mind. I am sure Dominique is up to something about this. The Langley is doing everything to find Quinn, while Dominique and his clan are doing nothing. They probably wish Quinn was dead by now so that they could take over Langley's businesses. But that's not that easy. The head of the Langl
Quinn . Expect the unexpected. She's a queen, alright, and I'm just too ordinary compared to her. "Come over, Quinn, join us." Stella held my hand and guided me back to their group. Trinity is pretty famous with everyone around. It's not even forty-eight hours that she's here, and she has already captured the hearts of many. Every staff member received a gift package from their company, which specialises in body care. Everyone listens to her. She can talk like a celebrity on stage, and you will never get bored with her. She can easily make a joke and put a smile on everyone's faces. Although it's her first time here in Isla Amore d'Pazzo, she sounded like she's been here many times. "Hope you like them! And don't forget your freebies. I'm all at your service." Thank goodness that was over! If everyone had a ball listening to her, not me, okay? I'm beginning to hate her smile. It seems like it's not genuine at all. "Thank you, Stella. It's good to see everything around here. I
Quinn . Hendrix left. I pursed my lips before looking back at him, and a little heat scorched my cheeks. "Can I sit beside you?" He sat down straight away. Not even waiting for my answer. It's not that I don't want him to sit beside me, but it would be nice for us to change location. My feet started to get cold from the water. "Aren't your feet cold?" He grabs the little towel beside him and is waiting for me. "A little bit." I took my feet out of the water and whirled them halfway towards him so he could wipe them. I don't want to touch the sand. Thank goodness I can maneuver my body like this. Basic yoga helps me. He wiped my feet gently. "Thank you. Had you had enough with your ex?" I put my slippers on. "Yes. She wants me to watch the stars on the other side of the wing, but I refuse." "Really? And why is that?" I blinked, and he pressed his lips together. I froze, my heart thundering against my chest. "I'm not interested anymore, Quinn. We've talked about this, righ
Xavion . "Did you have a good time with her?" Hendrix sat on the study table, crossing his arms together and suspiciously looking at me. "Wiped off that smirk on your face, Hendrix." I whirled around, putting the remaining things my mother needed. This will be her room for a few days, and I'm organising all her things. Although I couldn't keep my smile whenever I was alone because of Quinn, I guess Hendrix saw what my freaking face looked like earlier. "I haven't seen you smile like that for ages. Those hidden smiles reminded me of who you were back then whenever you were with Quinn. I'm not a fool, Xavion. I know you still like her, man." He follows me now as I get out of my mother's room. I entered the room beside it. It's where my other room is located. "And how do you explain everything with you and Quinn now? Don't tell me you two had a deal. Was it in written form or verbal? Come on, Xav, tell me. I want to know. At least a witness is needed, right? Look, I'm here," he sai
Quinn . Here she comes! Oh my god, oh my god! With a heavy pound of my heart, I immediately recognised Xavion's mother. There are over a hundred members in the Mother's Club, and only ten will be present for a private gathering today. Xavion's mother is among the officers. "Welcome to Pazzo 'd Amore!" Stella welcomed them with handmade garlands of flowers. "It's lovely to see you again, Stella, dear." Xavion's mother greeted Stella back. Her name is Anastacia Berry Mondragon. "And it's beautiful to see you again, Madame." "Mom," Xavion kissed his mother. I smiled as I witnessed the loving touch of a mother and son. It's beautiful. I had never experienced a mother's love and wondered how having one would feel. But it's alright. My grandmother provided me with all the love that she could offer. And I'm so blessed with that. She's my world. I am together with the rest of the staff, giving them cold drinks as an entrée offer once you step on the Island. "Oh, it's refreshing. Wh
Xavion . And I have crossed the line. Do I have any regrets? No, I don’t feel any regression because it’s a beautiful feeling to embrace everything. I held Quinn’s hand tightly, feeling her hand and mine inside my pocket. “What are we going to do now?” Quinn tightly holds mine like she doesn’t want to let go. It’s good that I’m wearing my track pants. It’s looser on each side, and the pockets are spacious enough for our hands. “What do you mean?” My jaw tightened. The sunset gives a nice glow on her face. She smiles slightly at the evening before looking back at me. “Are we. . .” She twinkled her eyes, and her face flushed as she paused. I purposely raised my brow, “What?” I slightly shook my head and smiled at her wickedly. She pouted. The feeling is mutual. My heart is covered in butterflies. Quinn’s radiant face glows more as she waits for my answer. I can’t deny it. Only Quinn can do magic like this. I never felt this type of feeling to Trinity, not even the others. “Han
Quinn . "How confident are you that Xavion's parents will accept you?" Trinity looked at me from head to foot, "I don't know what Xavion sees in you. You're nothing but a second-grade, trying hard copycat." Her brow raised, and so is mine. "I heard that line in a movie. You're not being original." I pursed my lips and challenged her, causing her to lose her smile. "I'm not someone you can just trample on, Trinity. You've underestimated me," I smiled, feeling more confident with Xavion by my side. No matter what, I would hold onto him dearly because we are a couple now. Xavion holds my heart, and that's all that matters to me. "I can transform into an angel if you treat me like one and into your worst nightmare if you're a devil. So, it's better to stop pretending and be genuine. You are a fox hiding in a sheepskin, Trinity... Sorry, but you can't fool me." My blood rose, and I could no longer hold myself after Trinity treated me like a piece of shit in front of Xavion's mother
Xavion . "She's a Langley coming from the other side, son. Do you know what this means to your father?" My mother sighed and looked at me seriously. I gritted my teeth. I know she will go ahead and do a background check for Quinn. I can't stop her. She's my mother, after all, and I understand that. Even back then, my mother already knew the people who beat me almost to death. My father didn't do anything. He had another plan for me. And that is to train my body in everything with no mercy. It was hard. The bruises and broken bones I had were nothing compared to what I received under my father's training in command. My mother didn't say anything to my father at all, but later, I found out that she did a few hits on the Montadamme's businesses, causing them to go downhill on the market. That's the kind of revenge my mother does for me. "Why it has to be her again, son? How much do you love her this time?" "Why, Mom? How much do you love my father?" "You can't measure love, Xavion
