Inferno desires

Ayla's POV:

It was underground casino night, and I was so excited to make some MONEY!!! I love to gamble since I always win. I have yet to lose a poker game, and I'd like to keep it that way.

I had invited Nova since she needed to take her mind off of Oliver leaving her house, and also because after a few games I was going to tell her more information about her case.

After some digging I found out that Alvaro Rodriguez is not the leader of one of the major drug cartels. It's another person. I'm not sure what their name is or who they are, but what I do know is that they use Alvaro as a front man, so they can remain anonymous.

Also the anonymous user calls themselves M. I've tried pinging their drug movements through satellites, but the transmissions were blocked.

I look into the mirror, and see my slim figure looking back at me. I tried to adjust my champagne coloured dress, but I didn't like how it looked on me. To be frank I don't like how anything looks on me.

My body is unflattering. No curves, no weight, just bones. I only like my hair since it brings out my eyes, but everything else about me... I hate it.

But enough with my sulking, it's time to pick up Nova at her place. I decided on wearing a long black dress that was of velvet material, with long velvet gloves because I don't leave my fingerprints in places like that.

I also decided to wear the silver earrings that Nova gave me. Ugh she's so pretty.

I drive to her home, and knock on the door. She answers it and my jaw drops. She was wearing the red silk dress I had bought her, and black heels. Her hair was in a low bun, and she looked fuckin stunning.

"Wow princess," was all I could manage to say.

"You like?" She smiles, her adorably cute dimples now on display.

"I love," I say, looking her gorgeous body up, and down.

"You look dashing Ayla," she says, taking my hand that I offered for her to grab.

"Thank you," I blush.

I open the passenger car door for her, letting her enter inside before going over to the driver's side. As we drove to the place, her mesmerizing brown eyes gazed out the window.

I couldn't help but find myself staring at her.

"Ready to gamble?" I ask.

"You know it," she grins.

We then walk into the underground passageway, and as soon as we enter, the dark night turns into a bright space with laughter and people drinking their socks off.

Nova, and I tried to go to every poker table, and with each win, more people were starting to notice us. Princess had told me that she has never played a game of poker in her life, but I would have to say otherwise. She had the best poker face I have seen in ages. Her eyes gave nothing away and she stayed silent only talking when needed.

"This is a pretty good pile," I say.

"How much did we make in total?"

"Around 7k"

"That's a lot!" She says in shock.

"Well...."

"It's not?"

"Don't get me wrong, 7k is pretty good especially since you've just started but I usually rack up around 20-30K."

"How is that even possible!"
