Antonio's POV:

Today I decided to get up and shave. I haven't done it since my high school years. I turned to the right of my bedroom and ran into Kylie. I noticed her looking down as she fell. I helped her up and told her "It's not a good idea to walk while looking down," She shook her head and smiled.

Today I had a business meeting at a restaurant. I've never brought a woman with me but I decided to bring Kylie. I feel like Kylie doesn't really know how to handle people socially and that's something the girls had to learn during their training days. I told her to dress pretty formally. I went upstairs to shower and change. I made sure I dressed a bit well. I looked different when I shaved. I looked young and my face appeared smaller. I stepped out into the living room, seen her nowhere to be found.

Kylie's POV:

The only time I seen Antonio today is when was trying to go to the kitchen this morning. It was quite embarrassing because I ran into him and still managed to fail eye contact. I don't know what it is really. It's just that every time I look him in his eyes, I pause and get weak in places I'm not supposed to get weak in. Those beautiful eyes. Many tell me he's cold hearted but those eyes tell me he wants to show affection but just doesn't know how. They also tell me that he wants love, but doesn't want to ask or pursue it. See, I may work in a mafia as a cold hearted killer but I have a heart. I want a family and love like anyone else would. There's a huge difference between the way I kill and everyone else in this mafia. I kill people who deserve to be killed. I'd rather capture someone and have someone else kill an innocent person than me do it myself.

I took a shower and washed my hair. As soon as I got out, I seen a long red dress on the coat hanger on the side of the room. I looked at the note and it said 'You look best in red! Signed, Antonio.' This note made me a bit happy. I seen myself smiling in the mirror as I blow dried my hair. I flat ironed and put loose curls in my hair. I applied red lipstick and mascara. I felt like light make up would be better since it was just dinner. I wanted to know why Antonio wanted me to dress up so well if I was supposed to be his body guard. I was also full aware that Camryn and Erwin were going for emergency reasons. I put on the red dress and walked out to see Antonio staring for a while. Keeping his eyes on me and I felt my knees wanting to give out.

Antonio's POV:

The moment I seen Kylie, I felt breathless. She is the most beautiful in red but her small features is what gets to me. She smiled nervously and I really wondered does she know she's beautiful. I seen her walk down the stairs with such grace and elegance. I walked to the end and grabbed her hand. She looked down at me for a split moment and I noticed her cheeks go red. I smirked at her and she reached the bottom of the stairs. "I didn't know you shave," she giggled. "Only when I feel like it," I said smirking at her.

We got in the car and talked a little bit about who I was meeting with and why I was. She then asked me why I choose her rather than the girls who were more experienced. "Mr. Sanchez knows those girls. He wants me to show up with a woman he had never met. So that's where you come in. That and I don't work too close with the girls. They do missions without me. You do them with me, like the guys." I said as she nodded understandingly. "What made you join the Mafia Kylie?" I asked and she sat there quietly looking down a little. As soon as I was about to say anything else, I got a phone call from Camryn. I answered a little bit irritated because I wanted to know more about the girl. She cleared her throat and scooted farther from me to look out the window. I smiled at her and continued my conversation.

When we arrived, I got out and held my hand out for her to grab it. As she got out, I noticed the paparazzi pictures and she seemed a little nervous. I put my hand on her waist and gestured her to just walk forward and she did so.

Kylie's POV:

I was a little uncomfortable with the paparazzi taking pictures of us. But as soon as we walked in the restaurant, I seen high classes celebrities and wealthy people. I immediately felt a little less of myself. Then I noticed Antonio's hand still on my waist. I felt a little more comfortable and secure. We sat down and Antonio shook hands with Mr. Sanchez and kissed the Mrs on her hand. Mr. Sanchez then kissed mine and the Mrs lightly kissed me on both sides of my cheek as well as I did to her. We sat down and talked a little. Mrs. Sanchez and I were talking about my dress and how Antonio picked it out for me. Antonio May be a lot of things but he does have fine taste in clothes.

"Mr. Ricci, I know that we're are both Mafia businesses but I am a family man. Not only does my wife motivate me to do better, she provides children. And with children, I can pass my Mafia down generation by generation. You're an only child as far as I know." Said Mr. Sanchez

"Well I am now aware of that. Kylie here has been my girlfriend for a while now. I love her with all of my heart and hopes that she will have my children. She makes my the better man I am today. So Kylie," he paused and got out of his chair. He got down on one knee and all eyes were on him. He pulled out a small box which revealed to be one of the most beautiful rings I've ever seen and said "Will you do me the biggest honor and become my wife." He said winking at me.

I stood up nervously and I felt my heart skip a beat. I nodded my head yes and he got up smiling and kissed me. Not a peck. I long and passionate kiss. A kiss that I returned. I felt butterflies and sparks shoot up and down my spine. And man this guy could kiss. I seen Mr and Mrs. Sanchez smiling and clapping as he slid the ring on my finger. He grabbed my hand and walked me to the dance floor as smooth jazz started to play. He held me close and danced with me then whispered in my ear "Good job for playing along. We're going to talk about this when we get home. My dad hasn't told you absolutely everything. I hope you don't think this means anything."

I was confused and shocked. As much as I wanted to not care, I felt my heart break a little. Out of nowhere I heard gunshots. Antonio stopped and held onto my waist tightly. I ran to my purse and grabbed my gun as everyone ran out the restaurant. I spoke into my ear piece telling the boys we had company. Three men walked in aiming at Antonio and I aimed at the one in the middle. One of them seen my ring and smiles. He gestured them to point the gun to me and they did so. "DON'T SHOOT HER!" I heard Antonio scream. The guy in the middle took his mask off and I seen Antonio look shocked and displeased. "She's not who you want Randy," he said as the guys smirked. I then shot Randy's arm and one of the guys leg. I aimed for the last guy's leg but he shot my shoulder, grabbed Randy and ran away just as the guys showed up. They took the other man and dragged him to the car. Antonio rushed to me and tore off part of a table cloth. He tied it around my wound but it was too late. I was loosing too much blood and I passed out in his arms.
