《Ashton's P.O.V》

*Ashton's mansion, Italy *

I am here in my office thinking about the call I got from Alessandro an hour ago.

My petal has killed Michael Montrell! He was a problem for the Italian Mafia as well but most of his business was in Spain.

I can't believe that my innocent and naughty petal has become one of the most feared assassins. Don't get me wrong I am proud of the woman she has become but it also worries me that she is putting herself in so much danger.

Hades is not the one to let go that easily he will try his best to get his revenge but I will not let that happen.

Alessandro knows that I have feelings for her cause of all the times I asked him about her but she doesn't know that- even if I didn't talk to her for 10 years, I still kept tabs on her.

Whenever I think about her I question myself if she thinks about me also. Does she remember our promises, our kiss that I gave her before I left?

Does she even likes me?...what am I thinking she must hate me for what I did. I know not even talking to her for 10 years was not the right thing to do but I was so busy training and after taking over my dad, I didn't want my enemies to know of my weaknesses, I can't bear to see my petal get hurt.

That's the problem in the Mafia, if my enemies want to bring me down they will go after the people important to me and use them as leverage.

But now, it's not like before. Italian Mafia is the most powerful Mafia. So, I will do my best to keep my petal safe from that son of a bitch, Hades.

I will also make up to her for the lost days and will do anything so that she will forgive me.

Tomorrow I am going to see Mio Patelo (My Petal) after 10 years, even thinking about it has got me smiling.

I was snapped out of my thoughts on hearing a knock at my door."Come in,"

"Are you excited boss?" said Mason, my second in command and best friend.

"For what?" I asked frowning. "Oh c'mon Ashton, Alessia is coming tomorrow! and I know you are excited to see her. From what everyone is saying, she seems to be a great person." He said.

"Sí, (yes) she is, she will win everyone's heart with just a look" I said proudly.

"Get two rooms ready, Mason and inform everyone about her arrival and make sure her room is beside mine." I said murmuring the last part.

"Ooooh..Okay boss, but why two? Is Alessandro staying?"

"No, Alessandro will leave after the meeting, the other room is for Alessia's friend, her name is... Anna, I think."

"Oh sure then boss" he said with a smirk.

Ok I know that look "No silly business Mason, I don't want Alessia running behind my back just because you couldn't keep it in your pants with Anna"

"Oh boss, do you really think so low of me, my heart is hurting." he said clutching his heart, with a fake sad look.

"Mason, I am serious. She is also an assassin and if she hurts you because of your stupidity, I won't be there to save your ass, remember that." I said arching my eyebrow.

"Ok, ok. I will be the gentleman I am, alright" he said saluting me while smiling. I rolled my eyes in response.

*Next morning*

"Ahhhhh...wake up Ashton!!!" I heard someone scream.

"What the hell!!" I woke up to Luca and Alexa, my twin siblings and Mason screaming in my ear.

"Are you guys insane! Is this the way to wake a person up and wait a minute, what the fuck are you guys doing in my room?" I shouted at them.

Luca and Mason backed away pushing Alexa in front and hiding behind her. They know if anyone gets away from my wrath it will be Alexa only.

"Sorry brother, you weren't waking up, so we tried this way." Alexa said with a sad puppy face.

I can never be angry with her. I sighed and kissed her cheek "It's ok pumpkin and I am sure only these idiots can come up with such an idea." I said glaring at Luca and Mason.

"Heyyy, that's not fair, you always let her get away with everything." Luca said pouting making me roll my eyes.

"Why did you all wake me up so early?" I asked turning to take my phone from my nightstand.

"It's not early, Romero's called an hour ago, they are coming in exactly one and a half hour from now," Mason said checking his watch.

"Whatt!! Why didn't you say this earlier? Get the fuck out you all, I have to get ready" I said jumping out of my bed and heading to my bathroom for a shower.

***

They were all gone by the time I returned. I quickly wore a white t-shirt, black ripped jeans and my favourite leather jacket. I wore my Rolex watch, styled my black hair, went to the mirror to give an one last look and was ready to impress Mio Petalo.

I looked at the time and was shocked to see that I took 40 minutes to get ready.

I entered the kitchen for my morning coffee to see my team which is like my family, sitting on the island in the center having their breakfast.

They all wished me good morning on seeing me. I wished them back and took my coffee to my office.

"I can't wait to meet Alessia." I heard Alexa say while leaving.
Only some more time Mio patelo, I can't wait to see you too.

*After half an hour*

I was doing all my pending work and confirming the security around the mansion and Mason walked in.

"They are here." he said hurriedly

"What, it's time already!?" I said checking my watch.

"Come let's go." I adjusted my jacket and rushed out of my office with Mason following me.
I reached the entrance to see my siblings and team already there.

Alessandro and a girl walked in, which I guess is Anna. Then my beautiful petal walked in. She has definitely changed since the last time I saw her. Goddd! she looked breathtaking!

I realised that I was staring for a bit too longer than I should, when Mason nudged me in my arm.

Alexa squealed and hugged Alessia tightly when she let a beautiful low chuckle, which felt like music to my ears.

Fuck Ashton, pull yourself together, you don't want to make a fool of yourself in front of a girl you want to make yours .

I stepped further into the room, near Alessandro "Welcome"
