Sinfully in love

A Purple Shade

POV: Donato

I woke up around 5:30 am because of Ezio's call. He went out last night to receive some guests for today's party. He called me and told me to get up and get the study ready for a meeting with the Blackwoods, our trade partners from the UK. 

It's 6:12 right now. I got out of the shower and wore my clothes. Then went downstairs and told 3 of the servents to arrange the study. The hall was set up with tables, all that was left for the party decoration was the food and strippers. 

I would never understand why Ezio wants it to be this formal. I looked around the whole house and then went back to my room and took off my shirt. I told Hunter last to get Jewel ready by 9. It was two hours until that. I called the maid to tell her to prepare me an early breakfast. She didn't pick up my phone. For fuck's sake!

I got up and went downstairs again to search for her. I walked up to the kitchen to see someone cooking something. What is Hayley doing here now?? I walked up to her and stood behind her, leaning a little on the counter. She was making herself a coffee. 

"What are you doing here so early?" She gasped and turned around. I looked up and down at her, she was only wearing her sport's top and a pair of tight leggings, all black. Guess the morning view is not bad at all.

"What do people do in kitchens?" She eye-rolled. I smirked at her and stepped a little closer to her.

POV: Hayley

"I don't know, you tell me, Amore..." A smirk formed on his lips. I looked at him with wide eyes. I eye-rolled at him. He stepped closer, making me realize that he was shirtless. I looked up and down at him. My eyes stopped at his chest, it had a snake tattooed right in the middle of his chest.

Both of his arms were covered in ink, his left arm had a skull tattoo with a serpent tattoo around it. He smirked as I stared at his chest. He came closer to my ear and whispered "A penny for your thoughts, Coleman?" I gulped and looked up into his eyes.

I bit my lip slightly as my eyes kept dropping to his chest. He grabbed my neck and lifted my face, making me look into his eyes again. My whole body went stiff and I almost dropped the cup. He came closer to my face and left a hot breath on my lips. 

I parted my lips. He pulled my face closer to his. I let out a soft gasp. He stopped pulling me closer once our lips were inches apart. I looked down on his lips and then into his eyes. He looked down at my lips as a soft smirk was still on his lips. He squeezed my neck a little and almost brushed his lips on mine.

"Get these tables out of this way!! How do you think I'll go upstairs if there is a table in between!" He left my neck as Ezio's voice echoed through the hall. 

POV: Donato 

I left her waist and she turned around immediately as Ezio's voice hit us. I sighed and walked out of the kitchen to talk to Him. "Zio!!" I called him out and he turned around as he stood near his room door. 

"What is it now?" He said as he unlocked his door. "When will they (the blackwoods) arrive?" I asked him in a calm tone. 

He stopped and gave me a judgemental look. Crap! What happened now. I eye-rolled at him. "What happened?" I asked him. He sighed and opened the door and walked in, I followed. "Zio, what is it?" 

He turned around and took off his suit and sighed again. Something is definitely wrong with him. "The Blackwoods are coming here around midnight." I looked at him in confusion as He took off his watch. "They say they don't want to travel in broad daylight because of the recent killing of Thomas." 

"What does that dead son of a bitch have to do anything with this?" I lashed out. Control it! 

"The word is out that you got Thomas killed, and people, his people are giving out threats to our partners, who have no connection to the mafia, partners like the blackwoods."  I clenched my jaw at his words.
