A ghost of you
is all that I have left
is all that I have left of you to hold
I wake in the night to find there's no one there but me
and nothing left of what we were at all

(Good Charlotte-Ghost of You)
She smiled at me when I threatened Charlie. She smiled. I found that extremely incredible to believe. I also found it extremely sexy. She was starting to get to me and the meeting wasn't even over.
"Una minaccia against my father? Impressionante. I see your threat, and I'll raise you. Threaten me again, and I will destroy you, your family, and that American you think you have hidden."
Yep. This woman needed to marry me today. I smirked at her. For some reason, I was going to take her threat seriously. The woman had guts.
"How you know he's American, I'll never find out. I will say you have yourself a deal."
"I'll plant the rumor, but please make the clean up fast. I'm expected home for dinner, so I'll tell him there."
"Aw. Bambino Bella still wants to make it home for family time."
Before I could fix my mouth to smile, I felt a pair of hands around my throat, another holding me arms behind me, and Bella gripping my chin. I'd given Le Belle Re strict orders to stay where they are, no matter what happened.
"Edward, Continui a portare la mia famiglia. Bring my family up, and I'll feed your sorry carcass to my dogs."
Once I could feel my air passages clear, I could also feel myself growing rock hard through my jeans. This woman was a huge turn on. I was pleased by few women and right after her hands left my face, I knew I had to have her.
"Lei รจ come un puzzle affascinante. I'll figure you out. I'm not answering smile on her face made me putty in her hands.
"If you can get your hands on the box, the puzzle is yours."
With that, she gathered her girls and walked away.I was amazed by her, I was enchanted by her and I couldn't wait until I saw her again.
"Addio mio dolce. I hope to see you again soon."
One her way out the door, all I could hear was laughter and the door to her ancient truck slamming.
"Masen, pull it together and wipe your mouth. I'd like to see you explain why it would ever be fine for the head of a mob family to drool."
I knew I wasn't actually drooling and I was suddenly reminded of why Royce King was so annoying to me. I signalled for the warehouse to be completely vacated. As struck as I was by Bella, I knew we could never use this place again. Bella had seen where we did business and even though we had a newly formed alliance, I couldn't risk her revealing our location.
After everything was packed up, I got into my Volvo. I needed to go into town today and the Aston would've drawn too much attention. I intended to make the Crowley's as dead to me as my childhood, so I drove into town, hot with Emmett, Jasper, and two more of my men on my heels. I'd oversee and only step in if things got out of hand. On the way in, I began to think about Bella Isabella. She was beautiful, definitely something different than what I was used to with Tanya.
But it wasn't just her beauty that had me stuck on her. She was exactly the type of woman I'd wanted to be with before I got into this business. She was grounded and thought with her head instead of her heart or other portions of her anatomy. I needed to convince her mind, along with the rest of her that we belonged together and I needed to do it before we got any farther into our alliance against the Pack. It was never good to mix business and pleasure. Tanya had taught me that.
