Stolen moments

Chapter 21

I drove through the vast parking lot as i kill the engine of my old trusty car. I look up at the two black shiny SUVs parked a few meters away from me. Apart from where they keep their luxury cars.

"Antonio never told me he had visitors.. " I thought, a ding was heard from my phone, i picked it up to see a message from Hunter.

Hunter:
". .. I still don't understand why you have to go to his house😒... "

I giggled at his words, I told him I need to see Antonio because I have not seen him since the night of the party, and I got a text from him this morning while I was working that he is not feeling too well, begging me to come over.

Me:

"... I promised to see you this evening, this guy we are talking about his my best friend you know?... "

I send the message to him, unlocking the car then climbing out as as I slam the door shut, i readjusted my white V-neck shirt that I wore with a dark blue skinny jeans, while finishing the attire with my black comfy ballet shoes. A ding goes of again as I chuckled.

Hunter:
"... OK... I trust you, be safe, call me when you are through,  i will meet you at Estrella's.. I love you❤... "

I smiled up at my screen, the word "I love you" imprinted on my mind... Wow... He loves me?, i couldn't help but feel giddy inside, i really like him but love??

Me:
"... I will, meet you up in a bit❤❤❤... "

Well that should do it, i sighed, putting my phone into my small purse and walking up to the main door but before I could reach the handle, the door gave way as two heavily muscled, scary looking guy walks out of the mansion. They both shot me looks, looking me from head to toe as they were clad in dark suits. I couldn't help but shiver at their appearance. What in the world is Antonio doing with this kind of people. I could still feel their lingering stares on me as they walked towards the SUVs. I gulped looking at them and then looking back at the closed door, i shrug as I knocked before I enter. As I entered I couldn't help but notice and feel the tension in the large living area as four pairs of eyes stares at me, am familiar with the other three but the fourth one who happens to be much older is a familiar stranger.

"Hey guys... "  I wave at them as the man looks at me with a confused expression. "Am I interrupting something?" I asked, Antonio quickly stood up from the sofa trying to walk towards me but was stopped by the hand of the man, as he raise his hand up like an order for him to stop even without looking at him. Antonio gulps.

"Chi è sto bella ragazza, Antonio?" I looked around confused at his words which I think its Italian, God... I need to start understanding his language if I continue to get confused like this. This man must be related to them, my thoughts were cut off by the voice of Alejandro.

"Ella è a amico ire Antonio" well done Alejandro get me confused the more.

"Uhmm.. I never knew Antonio has friends that are,a bella in che... Its there something am missing" he smirks at me his back facing the three looming figures behind him.

"Ella è mio ragazza, sta uno è mio, padre!" Finally he decided to talk, even with his confusing strings of word but I know from my Italian class with him that "ragazza" is a girl and "bella" is beautiful. The man raises his hands up in surrender then grins at me, a shiver ran down my spine, there is something strange and dark about this man.

"Pardon my manners darling... You must be confused with our little chitchat" Jared raised his eyebrows in confusion as well as Alejandro at his words, Antonio watches him closely not even looking at me. This man as Antonio's eyes.
