Mafia Men III: Marino

Chapter 19

Ellie POV

We pulled over to a mansion that had music blasting from so loud we heard it from the outside. There were sports cars everywhere and people dancing and talking outside of it.

"Is this a party?" I asked him and he got out the car coming over to my side. He opened the door and I shook my head. He crouched down and unbuckled my seatbelt.

"Cameron" I said as his face was so close to mine. My heart started to race.

"Relax Ellie. Have some fun for once. You could use it." He said as his minty breath hit my lips

"You told me you were taking me home" I said

"I am. I didn't say when." He said "Let's go"

He stood up pulling me out the car and my body collided into his. He stilled for a second and closed the door backing me up into his car. He eyed my outfit. I had on some jeans and an off the shoulder sweater with some boots.

"Not necessarily party attire but it'll do." He said and I rolled my eyes "You stay by me the whole time. Understand?"

I nodded. He pulled me in front of him and his hand rested on my lower back and I jumped not expecting it.

He smirked. "I can walk" I said making him lead the way and he walked in front of me

We walked into the packed house. There were so many people in the house. Women were all in short dresses and high heels that were guaranteed to have their feet hurting by the end of the night. Men were in suits. I felt so out of place but Cameron grabbed my hand pulling me behind him. Women stared at me glaring. Did they know him? Did they think I was with this asshole? I groaned.

We stopped at a bar and the guy handed Cameron a bottle. Cameron grabbed two glasses. He poured a glass and handed it to me then poured one for himself.

I looked at the glass to make sure nothing was tampered with.

"I wouldn't need to drug you in order to fuck you Ellie. I can do that with charm alone" He said and I looked at him shocked

"I'd need to be drugged to fuck you Cameron" I said and he smirked at me

"Did I say I liked you?" he asked

"Too many times for my liking" I said downing my drink and he laughed

"Ah Miles knows how to pick em" He said downing his as well "Match?"

I tried not to smile. Cameron was dangerous but he was fun. I needed fun. I barely ever got that. "Deal."

I stood on the pool table dancing as the music blasted through the house. Two other girls joined me dancing with me and I laughed. It's been so long since I've had girl friends. Damian shut me down from all my friends and I was too ashamed to go back to them after Miles got rid of him. I took another shot as I tried to escape those thoughts. I looked around the room and saw Cameron on the couch with some girl. His tongue was down her throat. She straddled him and grinded on him.

"Bailey is all over your man" The girl next to me said and I shook my head still dancing

"He's not mine." I said and she nodded

"Oh the way he looked at you, I thought." She said and I shook my head no. I was too drunk to care about anything. It was the first time in a long time that I had absolutely nothing on my mind. It felt good.

I stepped down off the table and went over to Cameron and the girl taking the bottle of liquor from his hand. He pulled away from the girl and she kissed down his neck. The way he stared at me was all I needed to see to know to get away from him. The want, the desire, the hunger. He indeed wanted to devour me. I took a drink from the bottle and got back on the table. Some guy came up to me and looked at me as I danced.

"God you're gorgeous" the guy said grabbing my hand. "Come dance with me"

"No thanks" I said and he didn't let go of my hand when I tried to pull away

"Come on" he said tugging me as I tried to tug back

Next thing I know the guy is ripped away from me and slammed into the wall. Cameron pulled a gun out his side and pressed it to the guys temple.

"How should I kill you for touching her?" Cameron yelled and the guy cried

"I'm sorry man I didn't know she was yours" He said as the tears ran down his face

"Cameron it's okay" I said and he looked up at me

"Apologize" He said to him

"I'm sorry" The guy pleaded and I nodded. Cameron let the guy go and he hurried off. He put his gun in his waist. He stuck his hand out and I handed him the alcohol bottle. He took a drink from it. The liquid ran down his lips and I stared at him.

"Please don't stare at me like that Ellie." He said and I looked down.

I tried to get down off the table but he quickly took my hand helping me down. I took the bottle from him and took another sip. We held eye contact and he stepped towards me.

"I want to-" he started

"Ellie!" I heard breaking my gaze from Cameron and looking to see Miles at the entrance. He hurried over to me pulling me into him. I snuggled deeper into him missing his scent.

"Are you okay?" he asked looking at my face and I nodded

"I'm fine Miles." I said

Miles nodded then looked away from me and at Cameron. His expression was one i've never seen before. It was pure rage.

"I should kill you for this"Miles said

Cameron smirked.
"Miles. I'm okay. It's okay. I actually had fun" I said placing a hand on his chest

He kissed me on my lips deeply and I moaned. I tried to deepen the kiss but he pulled away. I was flustered but I looked to see Cameron's jaw clenched.

"Let's go" Miles said pulling me out with him but not before looking at Cameron and saying "We will talk about this tomorrow"

We went out the front door. Miles opened his passenger door for me and I got inside. He got into the driver seat.

"How did you find me?" I asked him

"I'll always find you darling. Now let's get you home" He said
