All Chapters of Safeguarding Isla: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Alexander stood in a crisp black Armani suit, shoes polished, hair combed back in a charming quif to the side, the earpiece tucked in place behind his ear, again tucked in his holster and posture perfect with his hands behind his back like a true soldier even though there was no one in the study he was standing in.Alexander was waiting for Richard Gambino, the notorious mafia leader to arrive and meet with him. He had recently been hired to protect his daughter and Richard Gambino wanted to meet with Alexander first.Alexander has tried to do some basic research on his daughter, Isla Moon Gambino, just a simple google research but he didn't find much at all except the fact that she was Richard Gambino's daughter and her place of education, even the only pictures up on the internet of hers were either of her side profile or covered by a man in black as she got into the car.She was a real mystery.The door of the study jolting open and The sight of Richar

Alexander jolted awake, his heart rate skyrocketing and cold sweat beaded at his forehead. He took in a deep breath, coming to his senses and registering his surroundings, reassuring himself that he wasn't in Iraq leading a raid but back in his home country.This wasn't the first time he had woken up to a nightmare but it didn't mean he was used to it, each time it was just as startling and difficult as the last.He looked at the digital clock placed at the bedside table, it read 6 30 AM so he threw off the covers and swung his legs off the bed, standing and heading to the bathroom for a shower. It wasn't like he would've gotten much sleep anyways.Alexander was given the pool house in the Gambino estate because it was fairly close to the main house, in fact, Isla's bedroom window was could be seen from the pool house so in case of emergency he wouldn't have to peruse around the whole estate in order to get to the main house.After a good shower he got dr

Isla sat at the pool side dipping her dainty feet in the cold water after hiking her white, silk nightie up to her knees.A chill traveled up her legs to her neck making her shiver a little bit the cold sensation felt relaxing on her feet.It was late at night and she could hear the chipper of the crickets. She had snuck out of the main house to the pool house, it was a hobby of hers when sleep wouldn't come to her easy or she'd wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to go to sleep. It was the latter this time.She was lost in thought when she heard footsteps approaching near the pool and she turned her head around to see who it was. She could see the silhouette of a familiar tall bulky man nearing her.She was surprised to see the silhouette belonged to Alexander who had just returned from his raid mission and was quite astonished himself to find her sitting there by the pool.She looked like an angel in white silk to him, a fae.

There was this invisible line at the Luxe bridge as the three escalades stood in a row with seemingly absolute precision just as same as their SUVs were lined in front of the escalades, on the opposite side.Alexander along with eight of his armed men got out of the SUV just as the Campbell men did.Yet again Alexander and his men were outnumbered by Campbell men, it was 9 against 12 but it hadn't come to that yet and he sincerely hoped it didn't cause he didn't feel like going back with a bloody wound again, it was a nuisance to clean and bandage the only one.Sometimes he thought if he just did this for the kicks which he probably did because he didn't feel that sense of loyalty towards Richard Gambino but his daughter Isla moon Gambino was a whole different story, he knew if it came down to it he would give up his life without a second thought for her.He shook his head rid of thoughts of the girl bringing his focus back to the situation at hand.

Alexander held open the door of the Limousine for the beautiful miss who got in with a faint blush on her cheeks, her dad getting in from the other side as the chauffeur held open the door for him.Alexander was instructed to be seated with Isla and her father for protection and so he got in after Isla taking a seat in front of her another guard, Mr. Gambino's personal guard got in the car sitting right in front of Richard.Isla bit her lower lip as she felt her bare knee brush against Alexander's pant clad thigh and her already red face flushed even more.This little action didn't go unnoticed by Alexander either. It was getting harder by the second for him to control himself and keep his facial expressions neutral with her creamy leg brushing up against his in the packed limo and her teeth tugging at her luscious lips.God did he wanna nite that lip for her instead.Isla looked up from toying with her fingers for a moment and her gaze met Alexand
