PETRA RAMIREZ

"Oh wow, I have so many questions," I said as I looked at her ring.

She looks up at me and smiles, "Alright, well I'm going to unpack first and call my husband."

"Alright, well Xavier called for a meeting in the living room and wants everyone to be there in twenty," I tell her while crossing my arms over my chest.

Kylie nods her head before making her way upstairs, I look down at Ellie and shake my head.

Knowing her she probably got drunk and said yes to a random guy.

Sometime later, I get into the living room with Ellie. I look around the room and take notice of everyone who comes.

A few minutes passed by and everyone was all sitting down on the couch. Xavier's guards were standing by the door, and Ellie and I stood beside Xavier.

"What are you waiting for?" I whispered before looking up at him.

Just before he was about to say something, one of the guards started chatting quietly through an earpiece. Xavier looks over at him and the guard nods his head before opening the door.

Xavier walks out of the living room and re-merges minutes later, with a gorgeous young girl. She had blonde hair that was down to her shoulders and was wearing a short white dress. Her skin was very tan, not fake.

It immediately comes to my mind, that today we went to the meeting and Mr. Santos mentioned his daughter and two sons moving in. This is probably Aurora.

"This is Aurora Santos, for those of you who don't know. She is the daughter of Giovanni Santos." Xavier speaks as he walks toward me, "She and her two brothers will be staying with us."

"Why?" Carlos asked as he raised his hand.

Xavier ignores his question and gestures to the couch. Aurora walks over and sits between Carlos and Derek, I noticed Derek watching her. His eyes travel all over her before a small smile crawls on his face when she sits down beside him.

"Getting to the main point, of why I called everyone here in the family room," Xavier says in a commanding type of voice, catching everyone's attention.

I sat down in the chair that was beside me, I grabbed Ellie who was playing on her iPad that Xavier got her. Kinda concerned that my daughter is becoming an iPad kid.

"Not so long ago, my parents informed me about the Russian Mafia. The Colombo's murdered my sister Audrey, Vincent." Carlos, Elena, and Axel both visibly get tense at what Xavier said as my brows furrow.

"After they did that, they went into hiding. Many of you know already that the Russians are extremely good at staying hidden. Rumors are going around throughout the other mafias that they're coming out of hiding soon." He looks at everyone who's scattered around the family room.

"From this moment on, I want everyone to have a bodyguard with them. If you're going out in groups, your bodyguards will go out in groups too. I want double security around the entire place twenty-four-seven. Your bodyguards will also be your drivers." Xavier says as he crosses his arms over his chest, "Are we clear?"

Everyone nods their heads, I exhale deeply before looking over at Kylie who looked like she was about to say something.

Xavier walks over to me and puts his hand out gently pulling me up to stand beside him, Ellie looks up at us and smiles before putting her iPad down.

"Two weeks ago, I made the big decision to propose to Petra," Xavier says as he shows everyone my ring.

Kylie jumps up runs over to me, and looks at it, "Oh my, I'm so happy for you guys!"
