His Mafia Princess - J.H

Chapter 24

Jaden pov

She was so fucking calm. Why the fuck was she so calm?

She told me to check the camera. She must've noticed it last night. I have no fucking idea why she was in here last night, but I guess I'm about to find out.

After playing with Beaux for a little, I pulled out my laptop and flopped down on the bed next to her. She licked my arm continuously as I typed in the password and opened up the camera app. I played the time frame from when I had walked into my room to whenever.

I watched as the camera showed me fall into an episode. My body curled up in the corner with me screaming at the memory. I considered turning the sound off, the repetitive screams and dogs barking and scratching started to give me a headache. That was until the sound of the door opening echoed through the speakers.

I felt the anger bubble inside me as I saw her walk further into my room. She looked as if she was considering what she was doing but still continued to do it. I bit down on the inside of my lip, trying to control myself for the time being.

The video showed her walking her over to me carefully and sliding down the wall. She placed her hand on my shoulder and looked shocked when I turned and wrapped my arms around her. I was shocked too.

She wrapped her arm around me and brought her hand to play with my hair. She just sat there and let me cry to her.

At some point I had started to ask her not to let him get me. She whispered back to me and told me he wasn't here. She didn't question it.

Once I had somewhat calmed down, she had me stand up and walk to the bed. I watched as her body turned to leave, but my hand stopped her. I had asked her not to leave me. She was right. I did ask her to stay.

She walked out quickly to let the dogs out of whatever room she had them in, and then returned. She hesitated to get into the bed, but complied when I had pulled her into it.

I watched as I had fallen sleep on her, and she sighed. The video then showed her looking around the room before she made direct eye contact with the camera. A small smile formed on her face and with that she fell asleep. I shut the laptop and tossed it on the end of my bed.

"What do we do Beaux?" I asked the dog sat next to me. "What. Do. We. Do?"

Mirriella pov

"Get up and get ready, there's a meeting tonight at my casino and you're needed." He said as he burst into my room.

"Who is it?" I asked as I looked towards the door he left open. "Oh Jaden, come in, how can I fucking help you?" I asked sarcastically as I turned my head to his.

"Very funny. Get ready. And wear this." He demanded as he placed a red dress on the foot of the bed before he got up and walked out.

I sighed and stood up. I walked over to the dress.

I was worried about how open chested it was, but I didn't say anything about it.

I got up and washed my hair. I didn't have a full on shower because I didn't have time, but I washed my hair with my macadamia nut shampoo and conditioner.

I walked out of the bathroom and got a black lingerie set I had bought. It was considerably more comfortable than that of my normal underwear choice.

Once I got the underwear on, I had walked back into the bathroom. I quickly dried my hair and curled it, making sure that the roots hadn't grown through too much. I applied some makeup and walked back out to find Jaden sat on the bed, looking at the floor.

"Jesus Christ." He said when he looked up.

"Nope, Mirriella." I said sarcastically as I walked over to the dress.

Luckily I had covered most of the scars and burns in concealer, and the long one was mostly hidden but the fabric. I went into the closet and got out a pair of the black heeled boots.

I finished by putting some lipgloss on and then walked out to Jaden.

"So why am I coming tonight?" I asked, still not sure why I was needed.

"It gets boring at these fucking dinner things and you're easy to piss off." He shrugged.

"Wow." I said sarcastically as I walked out of the room.

When I got onto the marble floor on the bottom floor, I heard him wince slightly. I halted my movements and turned, making sure my shoes never left the floor, causing him to widen his eyes at me.

"Problem?" I asked as I placed my hand on my hips.

"Nope, not a problem." He mumbled, it sounded as if it physically pained him to say that.

"Good." I said as I walked over to where Blaze was sat.

I crouched down next to him and started petting him. He lifted his head and licked my hand lightly, which caused me to giggle. Both Boxer and Beaux also made their way over to me, and soon, I was surrounded by dogs.

"Come on we've got to go." Jaden groaned as he walked back into the entrance way from wherever he was.

"Sorry guys, your daddy is being an anal asshole so I've got to go." I poured as I looked at the puppy. He dropped his eyes and looked at me. "Oh come on, you can't take me away from that." I protested as I pointed to Blazes face, looking up at Jaden.

"If you don't get up willingly, I will fucking drag you out." He said as he smiled down at me sarcastically.

"You fucking would too asshole." I mumbled as I stood up.

I made a statement of walking from the place I was stood, to the door to the garage. By that I meant I dragged my feet across the floor just to piss him off. It was working until he came and picked me up, flinging me over his shoulder and walking out of the door.

"Put me down." I laughed as I hit his back lightly.

I heard him chuckle and felt a few slaps on my ass before he put me down. I flicked his cheek lightly before walking to the car that the keys unlocked, which just so happened to be a Bentley.
