Alaina's pov
I was sitting in Ajax's kitchen- all lush with white porcelain and grey- black walls with sleek silver enhancements, all in all it looked Royale.
I twirled my cup of coffee, the rosy aroma of it calming my nerves. Years back it was a dark fabel - the story of a kid who murdered his own father and converted his business of hard earned money to a Mafian empire ruling with an iron fist.
Now graciously standing at the counter with a recepie book in his hand, looking all adorable and confused, eyebrows scrunching together and lips drawn in a pout
Can he be his father's killer?
"Jax"
"Hmmm .......do you like Chinese or Italian?" he asked with much curiously.
"I like both, but a pizza would be nice for now."
"Okay,pizza it is then"
I shook my head and a smile fought it's way to my lips when I saw him closing the cookbook and dialing Pizza Hut but soon my brain brought me back to the reality.
"Jax....can we talk?" He eyes met mine and it became crystal clear that I was talking in all seriousness so he took a chair in front of me.
"What do wanted to talk about?"
"Look, if I am at your side I should know details about our plan, the past- your and mine should be clear to one another" his body tensed.
"Ajax....what happened to your father?" his body became rigid and stiff, the warm expression on his face was long gone replaced with chilling rage.
"Drop this topic Alaina." he replied with gritted teeth and with so much hostility that I flinched.
"Look.....I will tell you soon." I bobbed my head.
"You wanted to take revenge from Valace by hurting me.......what now?"his eyes contained sorrow for one second ,they ignited the other.
"Revenge or not, I was not going to hurt you but now as fate plays cards in my favour.........Cally-"
"You are not going to touch her" I replied calmly but my temper was spiking.
"I will do what is necessary" his tone was void of any emotions.
"Your 'necessary' dosen't involves her!"my tone of voice matched his as I stood up walking away from him but as I reached the kitchen door I was slammed against the nearest wall, a gasp drawing out of me, his body covered mine- every ridge and groove melting in his muscular one.
"It's about my family and you don't have any say in that matter" it took a second to register his words due to our close proximity. His eyes were fixed on mine, a centimeter of distance between our lips.
"Ajax, If you touch my cousin, it becomes MY family matter and I am not backing down."
"You are too stubborn!"
Taking the cake her big brown eyes went starry as she took a bite.
"Thank you so much, it's delicious" she replied shyly.
"You like it?" She bobbed her head furiously to which he chuckled.
"My son also loves it"
"C-can I meet him?"
"Sure, you can do sweetheart but right now you want to go back to your uncle, right?" He asked softly to which she nodded happily.
"I don't like those big meanies in black, b-but I like you, you are just like my dad"
"Sir, we are here" the driver announced as a bodyguard in black opened the car door. The girl clutched on to the arms of her new friend.
"My uncle's mansion!"
"Let's go darling, I wanted to have some talk with him, want to accompany me" she held his hand in reply.
"Hey I forgot to tell you my name-I am Alaina Storm, and you?"
"Greetings love, I am Leonard Ace Waylon"
