How could I make her mine. It doesn't matter. She's already mine. Just doesn't know it yet.

I took a step back from him to try and seriously analyze the situation. One, there was a gorgeous man in front of me. Two, he seems to be in good mental health for the most part so his questions should relate to the current situation at hand. I'm at a ball without a date so maybe that's what he's talking about.

"I'm here with my boss, Ms. Hale. Have you seen her?" This must have been what he wanted to know. His smile is causing my mind to shut down. There is no way this is not a dream. Men like him do not fall from the sky and talk to ordinary women like me. My hands fold behind my back as I notice they are shaking. My eyes don't leave his deep pools of emerald green. I felt swallowed up by them. "Of course I have. Please come with me." He held out his arm for me.

It seemed like nothing at first but I knew it meant more than that. If I took it I had put my trust in this strange highly attractive man who I was sure was spouting nonsense but a few seconds ago. I can't tell you what it was about him. I can't tell you how his gaze made me feel. All I can say was my hand was attached to his arm like it had found its rightful home after a thousand years. He was strong underneath his tuxedo. I could feel the muscles underneath my fingers becoming tense and then relaxing again. His face never changed but his body was responding to me. He started to walk and I followed. It was almost like we were dancing the way our bodies moved.

Each step in sync.

He would breathe in while I exhaled.

It was all consuming… well almost.

"There you are, Bella! I've been looking for you everywhere." The evil witch of the west said her fake voice of concern never wavering. I knew once the night was over she would have my head for not being where she wanted me to be. "So this is the woman you were looking for Rose? Had I known she was such a beauty I would have offered my assistance." He smiled wickedly at me looking as if I was the last drop of water on earth and boy does he want a drink.

"Oh! Edward Masen, you are such a charmer. Your sure to make women swoon at your feet everywhere you go." Rose laughs her fake laugh before grabbing my arm and subtly pulling me to her. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need a moment with my assistant." and just like that I am taken away from the Adonis know as Edward Masen.

Rose drags me towards the nearest exit, to yell at me I bet. Her grip on my arm didn't lessen when we finally came to a stop. She turned to look at me. Her eyes were ablaze with fury. Something in me knew i may not have a job much longer. "What the hell were you doing with Edward?" her voice gets all high and mighty as if she knows more than what she is saying. "Nothing, he was helping me find you." I say clearly agitated with her attitude. She was nothing more than one of those preppy cheerleader types who grew up and had everything her way. While I maybe the book worm that works for her, I am not a doormat.

"Is that so? It looked like he was helping with a lot more than that Isabella." Her eyes squint at me and I know that she's serious. I shake my head refusing to acknowledge that anything happened other than Edward helping me find my boss. She sighs, rolls her eyes, and turns from me. "Have it your way Isabella. But mark my words. Men like Edward don't perform acts of kindness just for the sake of it. Its all done with a bigger picture in mind." She walks two steps before turning around and motioning for me to follow behind her like the good secretary I am. One day I swear I'll quit this forsaken job. Its never been something I wanted to do. I'd rather work at a newspaper or own a small bookstore one day. But that day is too far off for my student loans to hear about it.

Waking up after sex dreams isn't something I had to deal with often; but for the last week since the ball my mind could think of nothing else. Edward Masen and his electric touch had been haunting me. I had mistyped four invoices that week alone. The initials E.M. were everywhere and I couldn't help thinking about the tall and handsome man from a week ago. But the one thing that plagued my mind.

Was he thinking about me?

EPOV

Will I ever see him again? Did he feel it too?

I can't really say what it is i do for a living. Some people would find what i call fun criminal. Some would call me a mobster; others would go further and say monster. But to me its all business. My Nonno would say the same thing, he's the one that made me into this monster. I stub my cigar out as the two men walk into my office. Knowing I will not be offering one to these cazzo maiali, it would be seen as rude, and I maybe a monster but mama always taught me with manners; even if the company I keep has none.

"Welcome, Don Volturi. What a fine day it is to be in your presence." My grin is as fake as the gold ring Aro Volturi wears on his right hand. Its a farce I do not plan on keeping on for very long. But I will maintain it as until this man proves he is no longer useful to me. For now he may live, on borrowed air.

"You as well, Don Maestri. It has been a long time since I've saw you my friend. The last time must have been at your cousin, Alice, wedding." I smile pouring a scotch for my guess as he buttons his coat. "May I sit with you" he ask. We're going through this dance. The same one we have done countless times with others of our own status. It's respect among the families and seen as insult to forgo it. I extend my hand with a smile. And this meeting gets serious for the first time in a while.

Translation:

Nonno- grandpa

Cazzo maiali- fucking pig

Alright! School is almost over and I've got more free time now! I'll try for two chapter's per month! I was struggling to juggle it all but i promise you this is one story I will not give up! The idea has been floating in my mind for too long!

That being said, I need a beta. Someone to catch all my slip ups and grammar error's I'm an educational english major, but I'm far from perfect! No yelling at me will be allowed. Please be respectful to what I do as it is not easy. If it was then everyone and their grandma would do it. I will try to answer any questions I have raised without giving anything away. This shall be my first time writing a mob story but I think I'm off to a good start. Please REVIEW! that way I can write more or less!

peace and love,

DTD!
