King and Queen of Mafia

Chapter 15

"Come on Rose, he said he is sorry." Enzo said.

 Kai wanted me to go with him for an apology dinner. I mean, I did forgive him a tiny bit after thinking on what Enzo said to me yesterday. He was bound to be like that if he was introduced to violence at such a young age. But I did not want anyone to know that just yet. I had to have some dignity.

"I know he is. But I am trying to stay away from him. I know he will hurt me. And maybe I will too. I am not sure about how I feel for him." I said clearly referring to my developing liking for Kai.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." But I just could not keep away from him. I tried to escape here because the Colton thing was getting too tiring for me. I did not even know why. And also because I knew Kai would break me and it was best to get away before the feelings grew from lust to love. But I guess that process had already started.

"Looking at your face, I don't think you are." he gave me a sad and encouraging smile. I just shook my head agreeing with him.

"If that is the case and you think Kai is worth it, you should give him a chance. Do you think he is wort it?" he said. I hardly saw this serious side of Enzo against his playful and humorous one.

Suddenly with that sentence, my thoughts took a complete turn. I now thought that I should give him a chance.

"Yes Enzo, he is worth it."

-----------------------------

I chose a short, black dress and a pair of heels to wear for the dinner. It made me look really cute and hot at the same time. My long legs were clearly visible. I had second thoughts about wearing it but I decided to go with it anyway.

I decide on very less makeup. I don't like makeup. I just put some red lipstick and a lip gloss and some mascara.

I thought that the dress was a good decision as Kai looked hotter than ever in his tux. It made me get tingles down my spine. Again. Maybe for the millionth time. His eyes raked all over my body.

"Ready?" he asked sounding rather nervous and offering me his hand. 

I took and and smiled at him. It made him visibly relax and he was back to his confident and arrogant self.

"So where are we going?" I asked to break the awkward silence that had settled between us.

"Oh you will see." he looked at me checking me out again. Ugh. 

The rest of the journey was filled with sexual tension rather than any kind of silence. I suddenly felt my like or lust whatever that was rise up several notches.

He stopped in front of a huge and very tall building. The lights inside looked very nice against the night sky.

"It's beautiful." I gasped as we entered.

"I own half of it." he smiled. It was one of his genuine smile which made the dimples on his face deeper and more beautiful. 

"Boy, you must be rich." 

"Yup." he was back to his smirk. "And the other half is owned by my friend Carter."

"Oh." 

"We will be having dinner on the rooftop." he said.

"Okay." I tried to keep the excitement out of my voice. Tried. 

This was the most difficult dinner of my life I thought as I finished my dinner. I mean, the dinner was beautiful and delicious but the sexual tension refused to reduce.
