song: like i want you- slowed + reverb

...

"Okay, then what can I get you, sir?" I ask.

"Ace," he says, looking at me sternly.

"Ace," I repeat.

"I'll just have a whiskey sour."

I nod and go to make him his drink. I come back and had it to him. He thanks me and takes a sip while staring at my neck, staring where his hickeys are, but there covered.

"So, what are you doing back here?" I ask trying to draw his eyes away from my neck, but i am genuinely wondering why he is here when there is a way better club down the street.

"I like this place and it's close to my house."

Before I can respond, Julia grabs my arm.

She pulls me to the other side of the bar. "Wait, isn't that the guy from like two nights ago?"

"Haha yeah"

"What is he doing back here?" she asks smirking, knowing the answer, but she just wants me to say it.

"Okay fine. Yes, I went back to his house yesterday after the club, but it was only for one night."

"YES, I knew it. I was just waiting for you to tell me," she says with a big smile on her face.

"My best friend finally got some." She sings those words while jumping up and down. I just stare at my crazed best friend. She gets some dick like every other day, so it's nothing new to her, but me, I get it like once every 3 months. I never really cared much about sex or relationships. Even though a dick feels way better than my fingers.

"Julia, it's not that big of a deal," I say, rolling my eyes then chuckling.

"Yes, it is. Go get some more dick tonight. You get off in like 2 hours anyway. And I want to hear all the details later," she says, winking.

Before I can respond to her, a customer grabs her attention to get a drink.

I walk back to my side of the bar and glance at him. He is looking down at his phone.

"Would you like a refill?" I ask him.

"No, thank you. I have to go; I have some business to take care of."

"Oh okay"

He gets up and leaves. I look down to pick up his empty glass and see his tip. It's like 4-hundred-dollar bills.

What the heck.

Why would he tip me so much for one drink? I mean, I'm thankful, but I'm confused.

Maybe he just didn't mean to do that much. I'll keep it and give it back to him the next time I see him.

ACES POV

I'm at the Russian warehouse right now. I got a text from Damon saying that they aren't in California anymore, that they moved their shipment here to New York. So, I decided to come and get the job done myself.

I would have liked to stay at the bar with Leona longer, but business comes first.

Everything goes smoothly. The Russians have no idea we are waiting for them. Me and my men shoot their men and dispose of their bodies and take their shipment of drugs.

I sell them to the buyer I have lined up. I don't touch the stuff myself, but holy hell, it makes me a lot of money.

We return to the mansion. The other men go to celebrate our successful mission, but I go up to my office. In the house, I have the whole 2nd floor to myself which I have my room, 3 guest rooms, my office, and a lounge area to myself. My men have the 3rd and 4th floors. I also have some rooms for myself in our basement. Like my own gym and my own liquor room.

I walk into my office and close my door. I walk over to my desk and take out my phone, and call one of my men.

"Damir, I need you to find out information about someone."

"Sure capo, Who?" (boss)

"Her name is Leona Valentino; I want you to dig up everything you can about her."

He understands and ends the call. I put my phone done on my desk and lean back in my chair.

"Chi sei, Leona Valentino" (who are you, Leona Valentino)

I think to myself. I don't know much about her. All I know is that she works at a club and that she knows Italian. But her name feels so familiar but I don't know from where especially her last name.

That's why I need Damir, he is my tech guy, to dig up some information on her.

I decide to go back downstairs and have a drink with my men and try to get my mind off her.

But I know it will not work.

LEONAS POV

I finally get home after a long day. I walk into my apartment and kick off my shoes.

I go to my kitchen to whip up some food for myself because I am extremely hungry. I decide to just eat some microwavable mac and cheese; I don't feel like cooking anything tonight. I sit down on my kitchen counter and start eating.

I take out my phone and start scrolling through Instagram. While I'm scrolling through my feed, I searched for him, just for fun.

Yes, we all know who 'him' is.

And yes, I know it was only a one-night stand, and I shouldn't be looking up his socials, but he has been taking over my thoughts recently and I don't even know why.

I don't know his last name, so I just search for 'Ace'. Hoping that he would show up, but of course, he didn't.

I sigh and go to wash my dishes and head into the shower.

I get out and do my skincare routine and put some product in my hair. I go to my closet and put on a nightie and go to my bed.

I try to close my eyes and fall asleep, but I can't. I literally can't fall asleep. He is all I can think about. It's like my mind is obsessed with him, even though I don't even know much about him.

I get up and head to my kitchen to warm up some milk and drink it so I can fall asleep. I come back to my bed after drinking a glass of warm milk, and eventually, sleep takes over my body.
