Guarding The Mafia's Son

Chapter 20

Diamond.

"We have our winner folks, Trace", the cheers like crazy as the fighters exchange a hand shake and walk away.

Ace glances at me and I give him brief smile. Jeremy has been staring at me ever since he rejoined us after his phone call and I must admit it's making me quite uncomfortable. I turn to him and he's still staring, making no attempt to look away. He gives me a half smile and I return the gesture.

"Come on Jewels," Jeremy says suddenly, kisses Sienna on the mouth and taking my elbows.

"See you guys later," they don't even ask him where he's going to.

He pulls me to the elevator, we get in, move up and out of the club and he takes me to a black SUV and ushers me into the passenger's side. He settles in the driver's seat and starts to drive.

"Well, Jeremy, where are you taking me?" I inquire.

He smirks, "don't worry Jewels."

"I'm not at all worried. Well, except for the fact that you've been staring at me the whole evening."

I expect him to tell me or at least give an inkling but no, instead, he winks and chuckle. Then plant a swift kiss on my cheek and goes back to the road.

"What's with you guys and kisses?" I murmur and hear his chuckle again.

I pull out my phone and just settle for what I do in times of silence and brooding. Music.

I sunk in ocean blue
Now they're all frozen over
I should have took your hand
We should have cross the border

I start to sing along and he turns to look at me. I've seen this look somewhere. Yes, Ace had given me this same look that time I'd played right through me in his car.

"What?" I ask him and he smiles.

"Sounds sort of sad."

"I love such songs," I close my eyes and continue to sing.

*******************
My lids fly open and I note I'm lying in a bed. I sit up and look around. I'm in Ace's room in the mansion but what I'm I doing here? Where's Jeremy?

A door opens and I realize it leads to a huge walk in closet. Ace walks out, wearing grey sweatpants ands a white shirt. His hair looks slightly wet and rugged.

He smiles. I make a move to get out of the bed but I realize my clothes are gone and I'm wearing a shirt. A white sleeveless shirt and that's it. Just my underwear, my bra and a shirt. Who undressed me?

Reflexively, I pull the sheets further up my legs.

"Mia undressed you," he answers my unspoken question and I nod.

All of a sudden I feel self-conscious. I look up from the sheets to him. He's gazing down at me from the foot of the bed.

"Why am I here? What says the time?" I ask all at once and he smiles briefly.

"It's quarter to twelve," he answers my latter question but leaves the first.

"So, Trace huh?" I sound myself and he just gazes at me.

"Yeah."

He's quiet again and I Dont know if he's waiting for me to say or do something. I settle for doing something. I push away the sheets and knee walk over the bed to his side, then climb off the magnificent bed.

"You know," I say softly, "Trace doesn't change anything for me. Underground fighter, mafia's son, I do love you no matter who or what you are."

He remains silent.

So I move in and place my lips against his softly.

~~{A/N}~~~
I'm thinking of letting things between D and Ace move to the next level (if you know what I'm talking about😜) but I'm not so sure about a sex scene maybe I will write one.

What do you think? Should I or drop the idea? Leave your comment. 

I'll put this chapter on hold for a while until I get my answer or suggestions. I'll focus on Violette Antonia and Maryse until then or not.

Have fun and thank you, angels💖

Sorry for the short update.
