Chapter 9 pt.1 ;)

Ivy pov:

Ares and I are walking to the cars that are parked in a perfect row, first a matt black jaguar then a matt black Range Rover and last a car I don't know really know. Ares leads me with his hand to the Range Rover and puts me on the passenger seat while he closes the door and gets in on the driver site.

Ivy: you are gonna drive?

Ares: just because im a boss doesn't mean I can't drive by myself Ivy.

Ivy: I guess thats true, were is the dance ball taking place anyway?

Ares: not far from here in an old castle

Ivy: wow, i never was in a castle, and definitely not at a dance ball

Ares: im going to take you on so many dance balls that you forget to count them

Ivy: sounds great.

I looked out of the window an looked at the sun that slowly says goodnight for a while, and greets the moon on the other side, they're like two lovers that will never really see eachother again and the sun always wants to catch the moon. they are a love story.

Ares: what are you thinking about?

Ivy: im just looking at the sun and at the reflection she puts on the ocean

Ares: its beautiful isn't it?

Ivy: only summer rain and storms are better

Ares: you never experienced summer rain in Sicily

Ivy: it must be beautiful

Ares: it is, Ivy are you nervous

Ivy: yes I think so, like I don't know how these other people are

Ares: just stay by my side then nothing can happen

Ivy: understood

Ares: are you scared of me?

Ivy: no idk a little depends if you will kill me

Ares: then don't be scared of me because I will not kill you.

Ivy: good.

30 minutes later we arrived at a big castle that has high walls around it and are covered with ivy and moss. Ares got out of the car and opened my door and helped me out, his hand found its place on my lower back and softly leads me to the entrance of the building, there were four men in black suits one of them had an iPad in his hands and stopped Ares, me, Oliver and Markus that was somehow giggling which I didn't understand, but after a few moments Oliver dodged him with the elbow in the ribs and he was silent as the night.

Ares just shortly said to the guy with the iPad from which mafia he is and then they let us in, Inside they over a few hundred people and some people looked liked they came with their family and some only with their partner or alone, we walked around for a while before I noticed that Markus, Oliver an the bodyguards were standing by a wall.

Ivy: why are the others not with us anymore

Ares: because they just will watch that nothing serious happens if it does they help, thats called protection Ivy and just for your information a mafia leader almost never leaves their house alone when they meet other people from mafias.

Ivy: I didn't knew that

Ares walked up to a couple and greeted them, the man looked way more older than Ares and also very mean. His name was Vince as I heard when Ares greeted him, the women at his side looked very nice but a little fragile and pale, I could saw that her smile was a mask.

Vince: Ares who is this little women u have here

Ares: Vince thats Ivy, Ivy thats Vince he's a part of the sector 45 Mafia and his Wife is Julia

Ivy: nice to meet you Vince and Julia

I gave them both a soft smile but took a closer step to Ares just because Vince was very intimating

Vince: How old are u?

Ivy: 22 just as Ares

Vince: wonderful, well we better get going Ivy doesn't look to comfortable Ares give her some water

Ares: of course Vince it was good too see you again same with you Julia

Ares and i walked away a little bit outside of the whole spectacle

Ares: i hate him, he treats his Wife and generally all women like their objects and dont have any worth.

Ivy: then why are u so nice to him?

Ares: because I have to, thats the rule thats going on here

suddenly there is a group of four men kind between the age of 25 to 45 walking towards us all looking between Ares and me.

Ares face darkened as they approached, and his body stiffened against mine. He looked down at me and took my hand

The eldest looking one came to us first, his face was full of scars and cuts.

I slowly made a step back behind Ares, he's extremely tensed now and the only thing I see is that his knuckles on his hand that holds mine slowly turn whiter every second, I don't tell him that it hurt how hard he hold s it but I have the feeling that I can't stop him now.

Ares: What do you want Luca?

Luca: you knew that I will come back one day

Ares: well you still know you are not accepted here anymore

Luca: You will not say anything to me

Ares: you well know that I have more Power than you, and I if I need to I will send u away

Luca: i don't think u will Dare that

Ares: and why Luca do you Think that

Luca: Look at her, I don't think you want that she get hurt

Ares let my hand go and took a step closer to Luca, I tried to look around for Markus and Oliver but there nowhere to be seen.

Ares: don't u or any of you little puppets fucking dare to ever get close or even touch her, I will kill u all personally.

Luca: don't underestimate my Power little Boy

Luca looked at up and down and then gave me a weird smile and walked away, Ares took a deep breath and looked at me.

Ares: sorry

Ivy: what was with him

Ares: he's the leader from our rival mafia okay I better say our old rivals, he and my father had huge conflicts years and years back and they never solved them.

Ivy: oh

Ares: you okay? your shivering

I didn't even noticed that until Ares mentioned it

Ivy: yeah im good, I was just uncomfortable

Ares: im sorry I didn't-

Ivy: you told me that it can happen I just never experienced something like that.
