Ria Pov
I'm walking into the meeting with Ryan, John, Alex, and Grey in front of me.
Once we arrived into the room Khalil was here along with Josh and Maddox who also brought two of their men with them as well. Everyone was settled when two more new faces came in. Khalil stands up and gave them a handshake, right after the rest of us gave them a handshake.
Once they sat at the table everyone was quietly waiting till it was exactly 10:30 on the Dot to start the meeting.
Khalil cleared his throat ''Okay everyone it's time we get this started this was our last meeting in Italy--'' The doors bust open before Khalil can go any further someone came in.
''Good thing I didn't miss this'' The person says walking in.
''Oh my gosh'' I mutter under my breath. My freaking baby is here and we're matching!!!!!
When his eyes landed on mine he smirks making my insides melt God I missed that smirk.

Khalil's Pov
Fuck. why did he have to come, I just have this feeling that he has something to do with this whole Ace thing. He knows something and is not telling us when this meeting is over we need to talk, just us and if he doesn't talk I'll force it out of him.
''Great, Cole you're back I'm glad'' I said sincerely, I'm glad because now we get to have that talk. he nods and takes a seat.
''But first, as you can see we have two guests here with us'' I gesture to them
He smiles ''Yes, I can see that....who are they?'' he asks. I won't be fool by that fake smile of his!
''They're what you call help'' I smiled it's better he doesn't know certain stuff for now. So the part about going California he doesn't need to know and I'll just have to talk to Ria as well but not today
''Okay now that everyone is here Alex you can hook up your stuff'' I said looking at him
As Alex began hooking his laptop to the screen I walk over to Malcolm and Cain. ''As soon as he's finished we'll begin'' I said
''No worries we're not in any rush but we got a few questions'' Cain said and Malcolm nodded.
''No problem ask away'' I said sitting down beside them.
''Who is the guy that came in late? and what Mafia is he the leader of?'' Malcolm asks.
''He's Ms. Smith boyfriend but to tell you the truth I don't really know much about the guy we really only talk when we have meetings'' I said truthfully
''Alright'' he nods
''Alex are you ready?'' I asks going back to my original seat
''Yeah'' he replies I give him the nod to start

''So recently I've been trying looking for anything I could find on Ace the Mafia leader of the United States, we know that he's in California, And he along with his gang members wear similar matching tattoos but his own is all black'' Alex said bringing up the tattoos on the screen.
''Now for getting in contact with him will be difficult but from everything, I heard about him and have seen pictures of the things he can do my opinion of him is I think he's dangerous but smart. The only way for us to get his attention is to take extreme measures so the plan will be--'' Khalil cuts him off. I raised a brow
''We'll get to that part later move on'' he says to Alex.
''Alright, now that we know he's in California we just have to find out what part he's in'' Alex continues talking. Cole suddenly whispers in my ears ''I need to make a call, I'll be back love''
I nodded and watch him leave. he looks so hot!
''Okay Alex quickly tell them the plan about California'' Khalil says quickly. O.....kay
''We will be going to California to a guy who says he's related to Ace. we will be staying by his house for two weeks hoping Ace comes there and whiles we're there we'll be looking for any members of his gang'' he said briefing us.
''Yes he's right, look at the tattoos mesmerize it, train hard because we'll be capturing one of his men. know this they're not like any regular gang member they're strong and ruthless and they won't hesitate to kill you so keep your guard up'' Khalil says speaking up and we nodded
''When we capture one of his men we'll get him to talk, I feel like this is the only move that will get Ace's attention and make him see that we're worth his time'' Alex finished off.
After they said that there were a few questions and the meeting ended I was getting up ''Hey Ria can I talk to you for a second?'' Maddox ask as everyone starts to leave
''Sure, hey Ryan tell Cole I'll be out in a few minutes'' I said to him as they leave. After Cole left he never came back in I guess he was still on the phone even when the meeting was over.

Khalil better have that talk with Cole fast because I can't keep her distracted forever.
''Okay, it's now or never'' I mutter under my breath.
''I wanted to ask what do you think of the plan we have to find Ace?'' I ask making her look at me.
''Well, to be honest, I would like for us not to be violent but like Alex said it's the only way'' She said starting to cry. What the hell! why is she crying?
''W-what's wrong?!'' I asked before she starts to get loud and Cole or someone hears her
''Why Ace doesn't wanna help us?'' She starts crying more and turns towards the door to leave.
Uh oh no no no!
think
think
do something
''No wait'' I pulled her around and made the biggest mistake of my life.
I crashed my lips on hers.................
