YELLOOOO GEMS! CHAPTER 3. HEH. *WINK*

HAPPY READING!

XANDER'S POV:

I opened my eyes only to find my family and I tied to a chair in OUR basement. Very sensible. I scoffed. I looked at Papa who was staring in space with a worried expression on his face.

"Papa what happened? We have to get out of here."

"Your sister" he said and I frowned looking around to find her but she wasn't here.

"I saw some man approaching her room before I lost consciousness." he said, a tear rolling down his left cheek. My blood ran cold at his words. I turned towards my mother, she was still unconscious along with everyone else.

"W-we need to get out of here." I stuttered. Pathetic. "We're fucking weak. We shouldn't have sent so many of our men out today. It was a fucking mistake. Look at us now. Anna. I don't even know if she's fine." I spat bitterly. "I can't be a capo." Papa looked at me sharply and was about to say something when the door opened and in came none other than the fucker himself ABRAM MARINATO. I glared at him.

"Why hello Xander, enjoying the family reunion? Oh wait, little Anna's missing. I hope my men go easy on her. Can't have a child endure much pain now can we?" he asked tapping his forefinger on his chin. I heard my mother's muffled gasp at his words. Other than me and my father, everyone's mouth was duct taped. His guard splashed the water on my brother's and friends' face and they jolted awake taking in their surroundings.

"You sick bastard!" I roared.

"Uh uh, I wouldn't say that if I were in your place." he replied pointing at the ties on my hands and feet. I clenched my fists in anger and tried to break free.

"I will fucking cut your balls and shove them down your throat if any harm comes to my family." My father roared. He started laughing like a maniac but it was soon cut with the sound of gunshots. We immediately froze seeing Abram on the floor clutching his balls that were... bleeding? and his guard lay dead beside him with blood oozing out from his neck.

"Whatever my Pa desires." An angelic voice interrupted. I could only see the silhouette of the person leaning against the door frame casually. I turned towards Pa whose eyes looked as if they will pop out.

"Cat got your tongue Pa?" she chuckled. Okayyy. The nerve of this woman. I heard sniffing beside me and looked at mom who had an expression of relief on her face.

A couple of guards dragged the bodies away.

"Xenia?" papa whispered and my head snapped towards her making my eyes wide in disbelief.

"Long time no see, Marie dear" she sighed taking out the pocket knife and cutting the ropes that tied his hands and feet. Soon after he was free, Xenia was immediately engulfed in his embrace. He held onto her as if his life depended on it. Can't blame him though. His body shaking with sobs and his head nuzzled in her hair.

"I missed you, figlio." he pulled black slightly and pinched himself which earned him a melodious chuckle.

"I'm very much real, Marie." she shook her head wiping away his tears. "Now, we can catch up later. We got a situation at hand, yeah?" she said to Papa who was still dumbfounded by her presence.

She turned around and my breath hitched. She's a Goddess. Even more beautiful. Her eyes found mine and I froze. She looked away immediately, walking towards my mother and untying her. She kissed her forehead and mumbled a small 'later' turning towards me. She walked in my direction, all the while holding my gaze. She bent slightly to cut the ropes that tied my hands, looking me dead in the eye, the scent of cherries and cream engulfed me causing my eyes to shut, momentarily. My eyes snapped open when her breath fanned my ear

"You can stand up now Xander" she teases and straightened her posture.

"Anna" I immediately stood up and was about to run out when a small hand wrapped around my wrist. I looked down to find Xenia holding me. She nodded at the man standing a few feet away from us and he scrambled out. I tugged at my hand, now getting angry.

"Unlike you, I have a family to protect Xenia." I spat and immediately regretted my choice of words as I saw her flinch and back away, leaving my hand exposed to the coldness that surrounded the atmosphere. She quickly recovered and looked at me again only this time all I saw was dark, cold, empty eyes staring back at me with no emotion. My right cheek stung due to the slap that landed on it. I looked at my father in shock and heard gasps.

"DON'T. YOU. FUCKING. DARE. SAY. THAT. AGAIN." he bit out. Fuck. What the fuck did I just say. Goddammit!

"It's okay. He only spoke the truth." Xenia said stepping forward and standing between papa and I. I hated myself more, if possible. Fucking man of the year. Small footsteps approached us and I saw Anna May running towards.. Xenia?? She jumped on her causing her to stumble and hit her back towards my chest. I secured her with her my arm and she stiffened.

"Thank you sisi, I love you." Anna interrupted. She smiled and kissed her cheek.

"It's okay baby, I love you too" she gave her to my mother and greeted the rest of my family, my arm still snaked around her waist tightly.

"Come on Marie, take everyone upstairs. Xander and I will follow, shortly." He nodded and glared at me. As soon as everyone left, she turned around and slapped me. Before I could recover, she clutched my collar and pulled me towards her, our lips touched as she spoke

"I do not tolerate disrespect, Xander. I am not your whore." her soft lips brushed against mine.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean that. I was really worried about Anna. I thought th-they.." I stuttered. Her eyes immediately softened and she pecked my lips. Her bold move surprised the both of us. She cleared her throat.

"It's okay, she's fine" she said stepping away. "Come on" she held out her hand and I took it at once. Our hands molded together, perfectly.

"Wait." I said and halted causing her to turn around. A small frown settled on her already adorable face.

"It's probably not the best idea but I have to do it, just this once" I said and before she could decipher anything I pushed her against the door and attacked her lips. She froze for a minute but responded eventually. I needed to feel her more so I slipped my hand beneath her sweater and rested it on her waist. Her skin cold against my warm touch. My other hand already tangled in her soft dark locks. Her legs wrapped around my waist and a small moan escapes her mouth causing my pants to tighten. I groaned and deepened the kiss even more. Something flipped in her because the next moment, she pushed me away and looked at me in disbelief. Beautiful. Her swollen lips, slightly messed hair and rumpled sweater. Fucking beautiful. She touched her swollen lips and gulped audibly. The next thing you know, she's out of the door. what the fuck did I just do?

AHEM, AHEM!
