Guarding The Mafia's Son

Chapter 17

Diamond's POV

Trevor shows up behind Ace and whispers something in his ears. Though I'm standing close to him in his arms as we dance, I don't hear a single word he says.

"Come on", Ace says to me and I shake my head.

"You go on ahead, Ace. I'm not going anywhere", I smile and he asks if I'll be alright. I assure him and he walks away with Trevor.

I just didn't want to be tugging along everywhere he went. It was tiring. I turn to walk off the stage but after I take my third step, someone takes my hand and whirl me around and into his arms. I look up and I don't recognize him. He's quite tall and his mask is hiding the greater portion of his face.

"Who are you?" I ask as we start to dance.

A smirk appears on his face, "don't tell me your cute boyfriend did not tell you about me."

"He did not."

"Well, I'll introduce myself then. The name is Clint, and I believe you are Diamond Monica Jewels."

Clint? I'm in big trouble, and where the hell is Ace. Where is everyone? I should just make a move to run. Yes, run.

He laughs shortly and lean down to whisper in my ear, "don't even think about it dear one, or you see the man up there", I look up slightly and spot a man dressed in black wielding a gun. I swallow. I'm gonna die.

"One wrong move", he continues, "and you are dead."

"I understand", I reply and clear my throat.

She gets my signal. "I got you."

Violette's POV

"Monica", Raina says from beside me, "I need to go to the bathroom."

"Sure go ahead", I tell her without casting a glance at her.

My gaze is fixed on my sister who's now standing alone because Ace left. She turns to leave and I catch someone behind her. He grabs her left arm and whirl her around into his arms. I wonder who he is and from where I'm stationed, I can't make his face out. They start to move and I register the surprise on my sister's face.

"Who are you", Diamond inquires and I listen attentively to catch whatever the man says. He doesn't give off good vibes, at least to me he doesn't.

"Don't tell me your cute boyfriend didn't tell you about me", he says.

"He didn't."

"Well, I'll introduce myself then. The name is Clint and I believe you are Diamond Monica Jewels."

My sister just gazes at him and I see she's deciding something. Please sis, don't do anything stupid.

Clint is standing right in front of my sister and I feel like just running to inform my boss. I almost do until I hear his wicked laugh. He's leaning towards my sister now.

"Don't even think about it dear one, or you see the man up there", I follow my sister's gaze up and I spot a man dressed entirely in black. Black jeans, black sweater, a black cap and black boots and he has a gun in hand.

Wait, is he talking to me or my sister? I think he's talking to my sister.

"One wrong move, and you are dead."

Well, mister, no one messes with my sister.

"I understand", my sister clears her throat and I'm moving already.
