The Mafia Princess And Her Bodyguard

I thought I was dying the moment Castaneda said those words. We knew it would happen, but not so soon, and least of all in front of everyone here today. We thought we had a few more days, but now reality has set in. My princess is now engaged, and technically she belongs to another man.

Yeah, I thought that I had fainted...

Then I thought Castaneda knocked me out...

But then I realized it was my heart that was slowly dying...

Ya...I have completely fallen for Trinity Stone...

And as I look over to her, she looks back at me with a face with nothing but fear written on it. I know now more ever that I need to find a way to get rid of fucking Karlo Castaneda.

So I do what every good bodyguard would do...Well, perhaps only me...I go up to her to ensure that she is still okay and ask if she wants to leave. However, I know that she shall not be allowed to do so in the first place.

When I come to stand in front of her, I see that sad eyes light up for a fraction of a second. Then Karlo comes back to join her side. And he seems very happy to see me as he always does. Yeah, right...

"Is there something I can do for you, Colton?"

"I am checking up on Trinity. Do you have a problem....Karlo?"

"Well, she looks pretty fine to me, and I must say in more than just one way."

Fück...

...I want to punch this asshole...

But I must play nice...

"If she does not feel safe after the stunt you just pulled, then I have every right to take her away from you, Karlo."

"Why would she not be safe?"

"Perhaps look in the mirror, and that will give you the answer."

"Well, she is with me; your duties are not required."

"I am afraid wherever Trinity goes, I go. If she wants to leave, then I am leaving with her."

"Then, you are going to watch how I fuck the woman that you are after."

... Did this fuck just say that?...

I step three steps closer to his chair...And...

Wham...

He topples over...

Trinity can barely keep in her laughter. The poor chair that Karlo Castaneda sat on accidentally slipped out from underneath him as I walk past...Okay, perhaps I helped it along. Thank fuck! I took away his gun, or my ass would be sprinting down the lawn.

But...

As he tries to get up and come for me, Trinity pulls him back and softly whispers in his ear. I don't know what she said to him because the asshole is smiling.

... Well, that blew up in my face...

But I loved every single second...

After making sure that all my men are still in place and that all is going as smooth as it possibly can between a bunch of criminals, I make my way into the kitchen. If I were not on the job, I would throw down a whiskey. But....instead, I sip on a glass of ice-cold water. Then I hear a scuffle behind me; my damn heart stops for the second time today. I am about to be punched to shit... Then I swing around...

"God, Alexa, you scared the shit out of me."

"Hahaha. You should know better than to turn your back on the enemy."

"I just had to come to get some air. It is kind of unusual since I came inside. Is something wrong out there?"

"I wanted to check if you are okay?"

"On which one? The one where Karlo has Trinity or the one where he is going to try and punch me?"

"Oh, I loved that little stunt; you can be glad Vic did not see it."

Really?...

Do I care what Vic says?...

No fucking way...

But I know why Alexa has come to seek me out. I just hope that she has come up with a solution, or I shall be getting rid of Karlo my way. He tells me he will fück the woman that I am after. He caught me for a fool once; there is not going to be a second time.

"Please tell me you have an answer to our little problem?"

...And how little he is...

I hope Trinity laughs at him when he takes his pants off. Not that he should be doing it in the first place. I have not thought about this part... And now I am raging just because I did...

"Alexa, I will kill that man if I see him touch her."

"Colton, I don't have an answer for you yet. The only one that can stop this is Vic. He said I must send you if I see you."

"Well, I have been seen, guess I must go."

...TRINITY POV...

Well, I nearly thought that I was going to fall off my chair. I would have loved to see Karloland on his face, but I guess that his ass will have to do.

But he was nearly going to kill Colton, so I might have played dirty and lied about him getting a little something. Not that something I got from Colton a few hours ago, but more like promised him that I would kiss it better. Fuck, I am stupid...

The man makes my skin crawl...

And now I see Colton heading to my father; I hope he does not get into trouble. But wait...

"Karlo! What are you doing?"

"I am collecting on what you promised."

"God, don't you know of something called patience?"

"You seem to be missing the point, Trinity. You are mine and only mine, and I shall get what I want at any time."

I have absolutely no desire to kiss him. But yet he refuses to hear my plea not to do it. So I find Karlo's lips against mine in less than a second. All I can describe it as being sloppy and wet. His tongue feels something like a muscular eel worming its way into my mouth. But I refuse to grant him access; when we pull apart, I have to fight the urge to wipe his thick saliva from around my lips.

Fuck! I would rather kiss a frog...

And what I failed to notice is that Colton was standing next to me. His hands are balled into fists as he loudly clears his voice...

"Your father said I must get you packed; you are staying with Mr. Casanova tonight."

"I am sure Trinity can do that herself?"

"And I am sure there is no fucking that way you will carry her bag."

"You better keep yourself in check, Mr. Cruz. I will cut any part of that touches her."

"I feel so privileged that you are thinking about my parts. Mine has to be bigger than yours if you are thinking of it."

Then Karlo raises from his chair to join Colton in their pissing contest. I would love to know why the two then hate each other.

So let's break this shit up...

"Karlo, I am sure Colton knows that loud and clear. And in any way, he is not my type."

Fuck, that is going to hurt...

And with that, we leave the table...

Once we are out of sight, Colton relaxes his shoulders and lets go of the rage burning deep inside him. But he has that look on his face when something worries him. And the Colton I know is not going to say a word until it starts to eat him up from the inside. So I need to ask it...

"What is wrong?"

"Why did you have to kiss him?"

"Colton I...I have to..."

"You don't have to do anything, Trinity."

He is pissed...

We are back to Trinity....

"I am sorry, I was only trying to get him not to punch you."

"I can look after myself; I can fight my own battles."

"I did not mean to do that, I just..."

"Hurt me."

...COLTON POV...

Ya...I am being a dick...

But fück! the girl just hurt me...

I don't know if I can kiss her after seeing that. Yeah, maybe I am overreacting, but damn I don't want my lips where another man has just been. I can't sit back and watch how Karlotakes, another girl that I care for, away from me. I know that she does not want to be with him, but if she keeps on doing this to please him...

I don't know if I can take it...

So I do what I do best and crawl back into my skin and detach me from the situation. I should not have fallen for a girl that was not mine to start with. Trinity was my undoing; not only did I fall for her, but...

I got my heartbroken...

I am here to do my job, not to bang the boss' daughter, and there I fücked up too because it was not just banging to me. But back to reality...

"Your father said you would stay with Karlo for the next couple of days until your engagement party."

"How long is that for?"

"As long as it takes to make all the arrangements."

"Are you coming with me?"

"I will only check in once a day on you. Karlo has convinced your father that it is not necessary."

"But you have to come with."

"I think that it is best if I did not. Now please pack at least for three days. I will carry your stuff to the car."

Fuck...

I am fucking dying...

So it takes her nearly an hour; even after throwing a tantrum, she is told that there is no other way. And while all of this is happening, I stand in the kitchen trying to scrape all will I have to carry on without Trinity in my life. And fück I am struggling...

I am so close to crying...

Colton Cruz is broken...

But then Alexa comes into the kitchen; I don't know if she has come with a brilliant plan or if she is looking for Trinity. But the problem is... How am I going to kiss her...

And Alexa sees this inner battle, and by the redness of my face, she can see that I am hurt and defeated...She only has only five words to say...

"Don't give up on her."

And what do I say...

"I..."
