Who Could've Thought

Chapter 06: Suspicions and surprises

[Back in Moretti penthouse]

Xalio's pov:

Just as Maya left, Noah came up to me and asked " Why'd you do that? "

"Do what?" I replied in confusion.

"You never let anyone stay here like this? so why her?" Ryder added.

" I don't know, it was an instinct." I replied with a poker face.

"Sure, an instinct." Noah air-quoted my words and smirked at Ryder.

"Non sto entrando in questa discussione in questo momento . Night boys." I yawned and walked away.

"How much do you want to bet that they'll sleep with each other within the first three weeks of her moving in?" Noah joked.

"Nah, I'd give them a month or so." Ryder replied and let out a chuckle.

"We'll see 'bout that. For hundred bucks?" Noah asked as he proposed a handshake.

"Bet" Ryder shook his hand. "Xalio you better control yourself for a month. It's not that I'll lose a hundred bucks, it's the fact that Noah's gonna rub it in my face forever after." Ryder thought to himself and groaned.

"He's so gonna lose. Ryder's hundred bucks, you'll be mine soon." Noah thought to himself and cackled.

I went back to my room and fell back on my bed. "They're right, I never allowed any outsider to stay with me, then why her?" I said as he looked up at his ceiling and started to think.

"What is happening to me? I never cared about anyone who was not part of my family." I added. "I just saw her and felt a need to protect her." I sighed.

"At the bar, she walked in with such confidence and such an attitude. She wore a red dress that perfectly complimented her curves. Her wavy long platinum white hair looked gorgeous and GOD the tattoos looked heavenly on her." I said in complete awe as he recalled the moments.

"She had a cobra sleeve tattoo on her arm and a dragon tattoo on her thigh which completely matched her personality. She had a scar on her nose and a few on her thighs. I just wanna know who gave bellissima those scars so I can ruin them." I added.

"She wasn't intimidated by me one bit, which was new and I liked it." He smirked. "Nobody was brave enough to talk back to me and stand their ground but SHE, she takes shit from nobody." I admired.

"I just kept thinking about how her body would feel against mine, what it would be like to kiss her, hold her." I dreamt. "Fuck I need a cold shower." I groaned.

Maya's pov:

"I wanted to get a little closer, see what it felt like." I sighed. "Whatever he did, made shivers run down my spine. I felt knots grow tight in my stomach and goosebumps take over my body." I added.

"No man has ever made me feel this way, but this guy just has something. He SCREAMS dangerous jerk but all I want to do is get a little taste." I said as I fell back on my bed.

"Mama, papa estoy haciendo lo correcto? " I looked out the window.

"Well, there's no turning back now anyway, ugh I wish there was an easier way to do this but there isn't." I groaned.

I hadn't spoken to Alucard or Raven since I got here because it wasn't safe. Someone could track me down and it wasn't the right time. I missed them and I just wanted to talk to them about it but I couldn't. Ryan gave me updates on what was happening back home as he was in contact with them. I decided to call them once I officially moved in with Xalio and the gang.

After a lot of tossing and turning, I finally went to sleep. All I could think about was what tomorrow would bring.

The next morning went by quite quick as I had been packing all morning. I felt weird, I don't know what this feeling was. It was like, well, I wanted to fall off a cliff to relieve stress but not die and then get donuts or something. I was just feeling hella anxious. Just looking at Xalio for a few moments made my mind go to some VERY unholy places and now I have to live with him. He was an arrogant jerk, no arguments there but he was a sexy arrogant jerk.

"God I need to get laid." I groaned and facepalmed. "And I need a cold shower, thank you for that Xalio." I rolled my eyes.

As I come out of the shower, my phone starts to ring.

"My god, speak of the devil." I said as I picked my phone up.

"What now Xalio?" I said in annoyance.

"Well morning to you too Ms. Hart" he replied in a flirtatious way. " I just wanted to ask if you like black or white more" he added.

"Umm black but why?" I replied, utterly confused by the question.

"You'll see. It's a surprise" he said.

Ugh, I could literally feel him smirking. What the hell does he mean by that? What surprise? I'm even more anxious now.

"What are you up to, gilipollas?"

"Yeah no, not telling you until you come here bellissima." he chuckled. "Come quick." he said and hung up.

What in the world was going on? I swear if he pulls some bullshit I'll murder him.

To be continued...

This chapter was more of Xalio's pov and a little more chill than the others. The chapters get longer I promise. What do you think was the surprise? What will happen next? I hope y'all enjoyed this chapter. Leave positive feedback! ILYSMM xx
