Little Mafia Princess

29. Jealousy

Xavier's Pov:

It's been a couple of weeks of Ella being with me now, I'm so happy she decided to stay, although I know I haven't been around much lately the reason being my father wants to build an alliance with another mafia, so all week I've been in a useless meeting discussing the terms and preparing for this ball where we will hopefully untie with the Russians. I feel guilty that only a few short days after Ella agreed to stay I was barely home, I was out the door before she woke up and wouldn't return until the late hours of the night, and it doesn't help that my father's presence puts me on edge, but I'm finally on my way home to pick Ella up for the ball tonight and once that's over I'm going to make up for all the time I've missed with her this week. I get to the house get out of my black Lamborghini closing the door behind me with Tony standing at the door waiting for me just like I had asked.

" Boss"

Tony nods.

" How did today go?"

I question throwing him my keys to park my car back into the garage knowing we were just going to take the black SUV tonight with my driver knowing I'm going to need more than a few drinks to get through tonight's ball.

" It was fine might have to pay a visit to Marco though"

He says causing me to look at him in confusion as Marco is our tailor and in return, we helped him out of his gambling debt which wasn't a small repayment he will be paying us back for the rest of his life.

" Why would I do that?"

I question still confused.

" When Skyler and Ella were in there looking for dresses some uptight employee of his, was telling Ella she couldn't try on the dresses because the store might be out of their price range. They pretty much looked as though they didn't belong, I was watching the whole thing he was at the back of the store watching the whole thing and the coward only came out when I stepped in to help Ella"

He says causing my fist to clench.

" Did he know Ella was with you?"

I question.

" Yeah I was as far away from her as I am from you now and he looked me dead in the eye"

He says gesturing between the small space between us. I say nothing just nod my head in understanding.

" It will be dealt with thank you again for watching out for her"

I say honestly happy nothing else had occurred. He says nothing and just gives me a short nod before walking around me to my car as I walk inside the house standing in the foyer, I look at the time seeing it's exactly 7:30 pm which is when I told Ella to be ready she must be waiting in the bedroom so I decided to send her a text telling her to meet me downstairs. After a few short moments, I heard the sound of heels on the stairs causing me to look up from my phone, to see Ella and my jaw dropped to the floor I'm going to kill Tony,  I told him as well as her nothing provocative. But I couldn't lie she looked stunning in the white dress that clung to her body like it was made for her showing off all her curves, with a split going up her thigh making the dress even shorter than it already was on one side with jewels hanging down her thigh with her blonde curls bouncing as she walks, I feel a familiar tightness in my jeans this is going to be a long night.

" Well"

She says now standing in front of me pulling me out of my thoughts. I say nothing just look her up and down she looks good enough to taste, I look at her once more before noticing her now fidgeting nervously causing me to smirk. I take a step closer to her roughly grabbing her waist and pulling her body closer to mine.
