Celeste

Sitting on the kitchen island and sipping on a glass of water I slam the glass cup down, I've been sitting here for the last hour meanwhile Davin sat across from me too busy to start a conversation since he's busy typing like a madman on his phone.

He takes the silent mysterious bodyguard to the next level, It would be rude not to at least introduce myself, after Damian stormed off hours ago Davin was quickly behind my ass as if he knew who I was.

Well, he does since I'm probably the only person in this big ass house that he finds unfamiliar, "Girlfriend?" I asked propping my elbows on the island and chin on my hands.

"No, Queen of Spain, we had an affair shes now pissed I left the country" My eyes widen, wow Queen of Spain- my heart suddenly drops, "Say again?! Queen?" He glances up at me with a slightly confused expression, "Yes...Queen"

Oh god, Anastasia's mother had an affair with HIM?! Holy shit, Does Ana know? it's an affair genius why would Ana know? "Well um...Queen Emerald is a very attractive woman"

Nodding Davin narrows his eyes at me, "Your friends with the princess aren't you"
"Yup" I don't hesitate to nod my head and bite on my lower lip, well this just became ten times awkward?

"Hm, So how is Ana-"
"Your seriously not going to make me hook you up with my best friend" He shrugs smiling at me, "Worth a shot," Rolling my eyes I give him a smile "I heard you know the Dragun brothers" He eyes me carefully as if he is waiting for my reaction, I don't give, I just nod, tho my heart is pounding in wanting to know how he knows them...

"I do, do you know them?" I asked gripping my water glass as I chugged it down my odd dry throat, "No, I just know the fact you grew up with them" I eye him to find his gaze formed into a confused yet curious expression, he's trying to read me, isn't he.

I smile to myself, I'm a tough person to read, most people think I'm a bitch from my gaze, I always set a rule for myself, if they're a bitch to me I'll be ten times worse, but if your nice I'll give you kindness back, and for what I've seen so far, Asher, Dean, Finn, and Adelia have been nothing but kind.

Besides Adira and Damian, I've shown them what I'm not afraid to show, trying to read Davin was pretty easy, he's a quiet guy, but it's always the quiet ones that are more dangerous, I've learned that from Father's mob.

Asher isn't afraid to show his dangerous and tough side, which now doesn't completely worry me since I know for a fact he doesn't show mercy to any of his victims, Dean...he's Damian's partner from what I've seen, I don't know him too well but from what I know he's the complete opposite of Damian, He has a heart, and fucking uses his head.

"How do you know I grew up with them?" The sudden change in temperature shifted and goosebumps raised my arms as he stayed silent, "I'm a detective, I know everything about everyone, besides that..."

Fisting my thighs with my hands, I kept my head held up high, I suddenly started to feel uncomfortable the conversation had shifted...creepily, at first I was playing around with Ana's mother til he asked about the twins.

"Do you trust Landon and Dawson?" He asked placing his phone down, putting his full attention on me, "I do, we were raised together why wouldn't I?"
"Have you ever asked yourself why Landon and Dawson were at the ball the night it got bombed" I swallow, Landon and Dawson are assassins, they don't work for anyone they just accept job offers-
Wait..."How did you know I was at that ball?" I asked with a frown, "Like I said, I'm a detective" he shrugged.

My sudden heart drops to my stomach, Okay not I'm very uncomfortable "Are you trying to say they have something to do with Elias?" He shrugs his head again and gives me an upside-down smile, "Have they texted? Sent you a How are you doing bestie? or even tried to contact or visit you" My gaze darkened, and at that moment I hesitated to stand up and run out of the room.
