APOLLO'S POV
****** i wish i could stop running but your lifestyle scares me*****
I walked on shaky feet back to my car. i had, had enough preview of the mafia life in less than twenty four hours. i wondered how everyone seemed calm at the sound of the blast.
"where to sir " i turned my head to the driver\ bodyguard angel had assigned. before i could get a word in the door opened and angel popped her beautiful head in...
"hey " i said awkwardly. i was awkward because i was scared that this was the lifestyle i was signing up for and it scared me that i found the life threatening situation exhilarating. the guns partly excited and the beautiful woman beside made danger more beautiful. like bombs wrapped in candy.
"Are you okay" she knew i was a bit shaken up after seeing the aftermaths of the explosion, i had seen a maid get injured.
"how often does this happen " she raised her hands and tied her hair into a slick bun. i was slightly distracted by her effortless beauty. the freckles that stained her neck. the car slowed down and i saw the police cars blocking the gate of the estate. Angel groaned and rolled her eyes before jumping down from the car
the conversation she was having with the men in blue seemed like it was vexing. she looked like she was about to punch him. i stepped out and walked over to them
" hello there. what can i do for you ?" i stuck my hand shaking the police man
"Apollo Fierri " I looked at the tall Italian coming out from the squad car. I had worked with him a few times I had a case here in Italy
"you were in the car the whole time " angel spoke. he gave a cheeky grin and pinched angel's cheek "it was fun seeing you argue with Manuel"
angel bent his hands behind his back and whispered something in his ears that made his demeanor change
" I'll go meet her in Spain" angel nodded and he turned to me, he shook my hands and a wicked grin graced his lips again
"es el Consilegere" meaning "is he the Consilegere. I noticed they spoke in Spanish to confuse me
"no "
the drive back to my house was silent, i had so many questions about Angel, her past , who took her, how she knew the police officer
" can we talk " I asked when the car stopped at my house. the driver stepped out leaving Angel and I in the enclosed space
"What do you wanna talk about"
"you " she raised her brow "what about me "
"anything like your past" i whispered in a small voice
" Apollo" her tone was warning but i found it unfair that she knew me in and out and saw right through me like a mirror
"i just want to know more ab...."
"DROP IT " she snapped
I Flinched a bit, i had sensitive ears and she just yelled at me. i glared at her before getting out of the car. i heard the car door slam a second time and the revving of car zooming off. she left and i felt hurt. i slid down the door trying to calm my heart.
"fuck you Angel" i said turning off my phone and throwing it away. i looked at the many case files around and decided to go to work, I've had enough mafia shit for one day
**** A MONTH LATER
" thank you so much Apollo" i smiled at the woman in front of me. i had just proven her sons innocence and she was extremely grateful. i hugged her once again bading them a goodbye "stay out of trouble Danny "i ruffled his hair playfully he grinned and promised me he would. i turned to my things packing them when i heard clapping, i raised my head looking at Angel. after four weeks of radio silence and many dreams about her. she was infront of me looking at me with those dark orbs that i lost my self every time i looked into them. the only thing different was the fact her black hair had flecks of silver in them
"hey " i ignored her and continued to pack my things, i was leaving for France today for the holidays
"Apollo " she grabbed my hands and i realized how much i had missed her but call me petty but i was still salty and i think i was allowed to feel this way. i yanked my hands away from her and left the court room
"cheers " i was at the bar with a couple of work mates from the firm and they were celebrating my win but i couldn't focus on anything because my eyes were on the woman wearing a black leather jacket smoking a joint and her dark eyes staring at me intently. "i'll be right back " they were to busy celebrating to notice to i was gone
"what are you doing here " i asked her while cautiously sipping on me cold juice
"to see you " she took a puff of her cigar
"i'm sorry " i was shocked beyond doubt, it took everything within me not to spit out my juice. s
"what " asked shocked and she rolled her eyes." i said i was sor... "
"apollo" i turned facing the hot blonde running to me heels. my ex girlfriend DENICE. she hugged me and immediately felt the the hot air go cold.
"Denice hey" i pulled her off me
'apollo i miised you" the slight slur of her voice made me know she had been drinking
"your ex is a gangleader's daughter you know" i blinked at Angel shocked. i had no idea
"who's the fucker " my face paled looking Denice, Angel simply laughed sipping her scotch
"Denice stop" i knew it was bound to get ugly soon
"so you left me for this bitch "i saw Angel roll her eyes before leaning off the bar counter "call me bitch one more time i dare you " her aura seemed to have darkened sacring onlookers
"BITCH" Angel chuckled before slamming her cup on Denice's head letting it shatter and making her faint. i heard heavy footsteps and saw burly men infront of us looking for a fight.
angel tied her long hair up and spoke to them
"lets go boys "
