Belissima's P.O.V

I woke up in a really comfortable chair. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes. Oh no,these white leather seats remind me of only one thing. Planes!

I looked around only to see emerald eyes staring at me from the far end of the plane. In normal circumstances I would've been scared of him instead I had to be on a fucking plane,they make me nauseous and fucking vulnerable and there was no one I trust here. My train of thoughts were cut off by the plane shaking for a short moment. I felt the air rush out of my lungs. I couldn't fucking breathe,why didn't he drive back to his mansion. Why! Tears started to fall from my eyes.

My heart began pounding into my head,all the stress and trauma hitting me hard,the voice of my dad taunting me drumming against my ears. I let out a loud scream. I couldn't hold it in,I took my legs and put them to my chest while blocking out every thing that was happening around me,and cried,I cried and didn't give a fuck about what this fucking mafia boss would do to me.

Ace's P.O.V

She's having a fucking panic attack! I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt and ran towards her seat. I unbuckled her seatbelt and lightly picked her up and sat her on my lap.

"look at me,"I told her in the most gentle voice I could muster.

She didn't respond.

"Belissima," I said her name,still trying not to startle her.

Suddenly,the plane shook again, making her bury her face deep into my white hoodie while saddling me. She then put her hands around me. I was speechless,but I let her. I put my hands on her back. Another turbulent hit making the plane jerk violently. She held onto me tighter than before and even though I'd like to take advantage of this situation,I couldn't. I tried to think if ways to calm her down when I remembered what mom used to do to get my little sister to calm down, before she passed away at 12.

"Belissima listen to me okay? Name 3 things you can see," I say calmly

"Y-your hoodie,t-th-the window, your suit hanging on the white bathroom door"She said while constantly stuttering

"good, now name two things you can hear" I said.

"that guy over there, humming"she said pointing at Fabrizio while he looked at me in surprise.

"and your heart" she said

"well done, now tell me one thing you can smell"

"Your perfume"she said smiling.

That smile could break or make entire worlds.

"well done" I said smiling back at her. I looked down expecting her to get off,but I was met with a breath taking sight. Her arms around me, while her head lay on me,she was calm, asleep peacefully,in my arms. I looked over at Fabrizio,who was giving me a knowing smirk. If it wasn't for Belissima I would have wiped that smirk off his face. For the first time in a while I felt a genuine smile grace itself on my face.

"Looks like you found our queen" I hear Fabrizio say

"We don't know if she's one of us yet" I say in a surprisingly sad tone. what the fuck is happening.

"Even if she isn't,what difference would it make"

"Well,my people will make sure to make he life hell, not the heaven she clearly deserves,"

"But you are the prince, they'll stay back from her if you order them to,plus I don't think uncle Drac would miss a chance to have a daughter-in-law"he said smiling at me.

"Yeah but what if she becomes scared of me and runs, just like how Antoinette did,". I said in a wavering voice.

"Antoinette was your best friend not your mate man,trust me,she won't run. I mean look how her presence has affected you already, your already acting like a scared,lost puppy. How can she be scared of you when you act like....well that"he said chuckling

"haha very funny,asshole" I said sticking my tongue out at him.

Maybe Fabrizio is right, maybe Belissima is my queen, maybe she won't be afraid of me, maybe this mafia boss could finally be happy.
