"After Miss. Cabello.", Rob, one the guards, said as he opened the back seat door.

"Thank you.", Camila said as she hopped into the car.

Rob climbed in next to her as he took the other backseat while Alejandro sat in the passenger seat and the other guard, Kevin, sat in the driver seat.

"Take care Mr. Cabello I have everything under control here.", Matthew reassured.

"You better we won't be gone long.", Alejandro said as they drove off.

Camila was little nervous. Sure it wasn't the first time she's been at the Mendoza's base, but she never really left the safety of her own warehouse so can anyone blame her for being a bit jittery. Although some things helped her keep her mind off things like the glow of the lowering sun and the arising highlight of the moon. Camila was just fascinated by how the sun, moon, and nature worked. Definitely something a future mafia leader shouldn't care about.

"Ahh Alejandro so glad you can join us this fine evening.", Nathan Mendoza, the mafia leader, greeted.

"Well you called so we came.", Alejandro said light heartedly.

"Very true my friend.", Nathan said then looked at Camila.

"My my my, how you've grown. I remember you when you were so young now look at you.", Nathan smiled.

Camila smiled shyly, but kept her head up. "Thank you Mr. Mendoza and my I say you are looking rather dashing today.", Camila complimented.

"Why thank you dear. Irene! Come my child!", Nathan called his daughter happily.

Camila turned her head into the direction if where Nathan was looking and a beautiful dark haired girl with blonde highlights with small freckles plastered on her face walked to where her father was.

Camila couldn't help, but stare in shock as she took in the girl's beauty. Camila never denied her attraction for girl's and seeing Irene made Camila's heart stop. The freckled girl looked at Camila and smiled.

"Hello! You must be Camila?", she smiled as she stuck out her hand. Camila was still awestruck, but shook the girl's hand.

"Yes and I'm guessing you're Irene?", Camila said as formally as possible.

"Yup that's me.", Irene smiled brightly.

'My god this girl is gorgeous.', Camila thought as she took in the girl's face some more and her body figure.

"Come now girls. We are about to begin.", Alejandro said to Camila and Irene as everyone started to walk to the meeting room.

The girls nodded and followed them to the room.

Everything was running quite smoothly in Camila's eyes. No arguments or disturbance has occurred and everyone seemed to be pretty comfortable and understanding of each other. Camila and Irene have been talking a lot throughout the meeting. Camila can honestly say that she's obsessed on how the girl's mind works. She's so open and free and doesn't hesitate to speak up.

Irene has been telling Camila about all sorts of things she's done outside of the Mendoza's base. Everything she has seen and experienced. It made Camila a little jealous since not only was she not allowed to go out anywhere, but she didn't trust herself being out there either. Camila had easily picked up that Irene is witty when it comes to terrain and is most likely a combat fighter than a weapon handler. Not that Camila is surprised though she can tell by Irene's beautiful body posture.

"Ok now it's time for the big deal.", Nathan said loudly and sternly. Everyone turned around to give them leader their full attention.

"Now it is coming to a time where a new era is being born. Leaders resting and leaders rising. Of course this is obvious because of those two beautiful young ladies sitting over there.", Nathan pointed to where Camila and Irene were sitting.

"But Alejandro and I have been discussing of further growth. As one.", Nathan said.

Camila was fully interested in what had to be said. Especially if her dad has partaken in such a decision.

"Let's face it everyone. We are victims of the hands of the Jauregui's. For far too long they have ruled in their glory without no blood being spilled. Well, I say that changes!", Alejandro shouted.

"We believe it is time that our two groups join as one. No more separation. We will be the Caldoza's.", Alejandro said firmly.

"And how's that gonna work mate?", a girl shouted in the room. Nathan and Alejandro looked at each other knowingly.

"We will have our daughters unite in a marriage. That will conceal our groups together.", Nathan said.

Camila's heart dropped as the words left the leader's mouth. Irene's eyes widen as she stormed out of the room.

"Um please pardon me.", Nathan said as he rushed after his daughter.

"Camila are you alright?", Alejandro asked.

"I... I'm fine.", Camila said quietly.

Camila couldn't believe what was going on. She didn't want to believe this was her reality. Yes, Irene was very beautiful and fascinating girl, but Camila wasn't ever expecting having to marry her just for the sake of the mafia groups. This was never something she was never told this might happen Camila isn't prepared for this.

She feels like she is being used. Camila didn't want to be married to someone she barely knows. Camila knows how commitment is important to marriage and she already knows she isn't going to be committed with Irene. Camila didn't want this and clearly neither did Irene.

Camila doesn't want to do this.
