Chapter 10

Alexander Knights is the only son of the biggest mafia group leader Mr Abraham Knights. His house is just like a castle, Alexander's life is nothing less than a prince either. Currently, he lives in another two-story building near the college with some gang members. The house is always guarded by the members of the knights.

Ava was reading a magazine while Alexander was sitting opposite of her wiping his sweat He looked tired. " Ewww why don't you take a bath? Your clothes are stink with sweat " Ava had a disgusting expression. " I was working out so definitely I will sweat. Why are you still here? " He was annoyed that she always followed him around and interfered in his every business. At the college, at the house, She never leaves him alone at all. " Dad don't let me go anywhere else. You think I don't know it is all your plan. You must take responsibility for me. I am bored And the only place he doesn't object is here. What do you think I am eager to see your annoying face. In two years, My college life will end then I will fly away from this prison," Ava said huffing in frustration. He smiled slightly reminded her stubbornness when she was a child which she still carries around her. Even though she is a troublemaker, Ava is the most kind-hearted person in his family.

Alexander's phone rang, seeing Tom's Number he took the call. Hearing Tom is bringing someone with him, Alexander frowns. He just wants to rest this evening. But here Tom already finding trouble for him.

Ava was looking at the door randomly. " Are you expecting someone? " Alexander asked seeing her curiosity. " Oh no. I just want to see some drama or a handsome guy. Oh God I am board, Where is Tom?" Ava sighed heavily plopping on the sofa.

Alexander shook his head unbelievable for her reasons. Tom stood in front of Alexander who looked up to him nodding his head. " This is James " Alexander already knows this guy from his gang. Observing close to his face he saw some bruise on his face. Locking eyes with Alexander, James Immediately lowered his head gulping in fear.

" Oh did anyone attack him? " Ava asked seeing his bruised face. Alexander looked at Tom sternly, " What did he do? " He asked eyeing James " He was blackmailed by Arrow and He tried to assault him in a hotel room where I happened to see him and I helped him " Tom answered him firmly.

" Oh poor guy why did that beast do that for? I think he should consult with a doctor about his never-ending lust. And look at that, he ruined that beautiful face " Ava felt sorry for him. James felt a little awkward as Ava stared at him too long. he was surprised, Ava was nothing as he thought, she looked kinder.

Alexander rolled his eyes annoyed and Tom was used to Ava caring whenever she met a handsome guy, He just ignored her as continued his talk. " He lied about his qualifications. He doesn't have any fighting skills and I don't how he survived with us." Tom says, Alexander who was calm all this time suddenly stood from his seat " You took a liar here instead of killing him off on the spot, " Alexander shouted as he walked towards James in so much anger. James was terrified he could feel his both ears heating up in fear. As instinct, James hides behind Tom.

Tom looked trapped between James and Alexander, who looked very angry, even Tom felt a little scared by his stare.

" He didn't have enough money to study, he has a drunk head father at home. That's why he lied and somehow Arrow knew. Do you know how cruel he is? James didn't betray us. And he is Johnny's brother we can't lose someone like Johnny. Think if we hurt him Johnny will react. Right now we lack trustworthy people in our gang " Tom stated truthfully, Alexander kept staring at James with hatred. " Trustworthy people? who knows his brother is also like him. And you think I going to forgive someone who deceived us all this time " Alexander seethed as he moved Tom harshly. James shivered in fear like a deer caught by a predator. Alexander pulled his gun out, and James stepped back and stumbled. James could feel Alexander's gun pointed at him. He expected a bullet in his head anytime. " If he is not good with fighting it's fine why don't you make him your maid? " Everyone turned towards Ava after her suggestion. " What? He looks like he can cook and all the boys who live here can always monitor him. " Alexander sighed in disbelief. " You are not understanding we are mafia. Safety comes first, I care about my people's lives. We can't trust someone twice and why do we need a useless like him with us? " James felt hurt by his comment. Tears prickled in his eyes he was fed up hearing people say that he was useless.

" Give him a chance to live Alex. We never had a moment in our life where we worried about money because we were filthy rich. That guy needs to be with us so he can complete his studies " Ava said raising her voice at him. " Then you Do what you want to do with him. But if anything goes wrong don't come to me complaining, " Alexander said frustrated as he looked at James once again and walked away leaving all decisions to Ava.
