"Jianan." I said and he nodded and started to work on cracking the code.
Please be here Royalty! Please!
"You fight like a tiger." Geovanni said to me patting me on the back "For a minute I thought you might give up."
"Not for Royalty." I answered him.
"You're in love with her, aren't you?" Neveah asked me and I looked at her then looked down
"I guess so." I answered going red
The boys started cheering.
"Shut up!" I said turning away
Cristiano patted me on the back.
"It's about time you fell for a girl again and Royalty isn't bad." he said "I bet you'll be knocking her up soon."
"I won't." I snapped "I don't even know if she likes me and I doubt she will after Damanico playing with her. She might get defensive."
"That's true." Geovanni said "She might...."
We stopped when the keypad beeped and the door opened.
"Royalty!" we all said in sync
Royalty's POV
The room was sound proof so I didn't hear the boys outside the room but I heard the keypad beeping and I sat up in fear and dried my tears. Someone was trying to break in and I was scared. My foot wasn't hurting as much but it was painful to move. I finally heard the door slowly opening and I stood up. I couldn't believe who I saw.
"Royalty!" they exclaimed
"Guys!" I said excitedly
Neveah threw herself on me crying.
"You're alright." she cried "You had us worried."
I looked up to see Xavier smiling at me. He had blood on the side of his face and his lip was split at the side and a little cut on his abs and shoulder.
Xavier! Xavier!
I didn't know how but I found the strength and flew straight into his arms and I felt his warms arms wrapping around my waist. I began to cry.
"Why are you crying Royalty?" he asked me softly
"I missed you so much." I cried "I missed all of you so much. Thank you for coming after me."
"That's my job." he said and I smiled and looked up at him
I was sad at seeing he was hurt because of me.
"What happened?" I asked
"He got into a manly fight for you." Jianan answered
"For me?" I asked softly
Xavier got into a fight for me? Of all the people in God's green earth, me?
I gently touch the cut in his temple where the skin was split and blood was leaking. Then my finger found themselves gently running over his lips.
They were so soft and warm.
"What happened to your leg?" he asked me
"Lucario shot me so I won't run." I answered "I also got whipped by him because I refused to give him any answers and sell you out."
"He did all that to you?" he asked me softly
"I don't mind at all if it's for you." I replied
He leaned in a little and I looked up.
"Why?" he asked me "Why did you just tell him what he wanted so you wouldn't get hurt?"
"Because I'm in love with Xavier Arivonese the mafia boss." I answered closing my eyes as our lips brushed
I felt him smile.
"I love you too Royalty." he said pulled me into his arms.
The others began to cheer and laugh.
He smelt like white roses and chocolate and mint body wash!
You've got yourself an upgrade Rei! You're now in love with the boss of a mafia and he told you he loved you.
I wanted him more. I wanted Xavier more! He held me for a little longer and I buried my head in his chest. We didn't do any cliché kissing, we just held each other. After a while he pulled away a little.
"Let's go." he said then turned to me and whispered in my ear "We'll finish this later on."
I giggled and he lifted me ip into his arms and carried me. We met up with the men outside in SUV's who cheered when they saw me and I laughed and was caught up in breath taking hugs and sympathy to my whipping and my hurt leg. I caught sight of Damanico and Lucario looking at me sadly while their hands were in handcuffs. I looked at them then turned away. I didn't care what happened to them after this.
The door to their SUV closed and the driver got in. The men got into the SUV's and I got in with Neveah and the boys. I couldn't wait to see my sister.
"How long was I away?" I asked as the driver shut the door
"Three weeks." Geovanni answered "Xavier wasn't in a good mood with you gone. He broke his bathroom mirror the morning after we discovered you were gone. Believe me we had a hard time getting a good plan but we finally did."
Xavier slapped him.
"Took you long enough too." I joked then turned to Xavier who was sitting next to me "What are you going to do about the two."
"Hold them until further notice." Xavier said "There's another master mind behind this so we've got to get them to talk."
"Fine by me." I said leaning my head on his shoulder
"We've got to get you two treated as soon as we get home." Jianan said "You two took a lot for each other."
"Why didn't you sell us out?" Cristaino asked "Besides Xavier."
I looked at him and smiled
"You're the first people to be my friends." I answered "You gave me a better life here in Italy. Why would I sell you out after you've been so kind to both me and my sister?"
"Awww." Neveah said hugging me
"You're one of us now." Geovanni said "You're now the girlfriend of a mafia boss making you a mafia princess."
