Pericoloso

Chapter 4

Celestia and Kate had spent the last few weeks at work and their new home. The two never thought they'd be roomies again, under these circumstances. But life had to go on, which is why Celestia was getting ready to check on the restaurant. She haven't been there lately. Kate decided she wasn't leaving her best friend side any longer than she had to, trailing on her side when they entered the Deuxième Maiso.

She knew that just because the last few weeks have been stable, doesn't mean that everything was okay. Immediately snapping back to reality, she got right to work, serving food to the hungry customers. Kate was prepping the food, today. Usually her and Celestia traded duties.

A little later in the day, when the doors finally stopped opening and closing with customers leaving after a meal and coming for one, Celestia rested at an empty table for a moment. She inhaled a breath, absolutely tired.

A group of men entered, sitting in the same exact spot as last time. Celestia remembered them. It wasn't all of them, but it was some. They were the ones who destroyed the club. They were the Lacovara's. Secured with her weapons, Celestia proceeded to take all of their orders. As she appeared closer, she took in the appearance of all three men. One of them wasn't paying attention, she took him in. He was probably younger than her, the youngest of them all. The stranger looked as if he belonged anywhere, but in the mafia, with a very cute, baby face.

When she got closer to take their orders, the laughs died down, and she looked at each of them. The curly headed one, had his facial hair groomed, and greens eyes glued to a menu. He was gorgeous, they all were even if she couldn't see their full faces, they looked straight out of a magazine.

"Can I start you gentlemen off with something to drink? Water?"

"How's your Chardonnay?" Celestia head immediately turn at the dark, husky, voice. Her bikini bottom began to soak a little and she cleared her throat before responding.

"It is great. Would you like to try our finest?" She asks, positively.

She could not be attracted to a murdered.

"Thank you," he tells her. "And when you come back, we would like to order."

"Very well."

Celestia couldn't believe it. He was gorgeous. Beautiful. Hell, sexy. Handsome. All of the above. His eyes, blue like ocean, with a face clear as water, with deep dimples. His hair looked so silky, she was so tempted to run her fingers through it. His suit, fitted him so perfectly and his broad shoulders and muscles were visible, still. He was a sculpture, waiting to be gawked at.

And she couldn't do it. She couldn't find him attractive.

Bringing the drinks back to their table, Celestia took their orders. When she left to put them in, she pulled Kate to the side, informing her that they were inside the restaurant.

"Celestia, It's okay. I have a gun now, plus they won't be trying anything out in the open. Hell, they probably don't know who you are, hopefully."

She smiled, nodding at her best friend. She was slightly less worried now that she had a weapon of her own. Now Kate wasn't in danger.

"They were at the restaurant, Adrian."

Her brother was never the type to take information like that lightly. He told her he was furious. He thought it was some sick joke. Did everyone want to fuck with his baby sister for fun? He needed her safe.
