"Take her home and keep her safe. Don't make any stops. Right home, and lock the doors." Ethan said calmly to my brothers who were enjoying their time flirting with the ladies.
Nicks flirtatious smirk instantly changed to a look of worry. He looked at me silently asking 'are you okay' and I gave him a reassuring smile and nod.
"What's going on boss?" Max asked with worry laced through every word that he said. Ethan shook his head telling them that it didn't matter.
"Go get your car and pull it out front." Ethan snapped at the two making them nod, and quickly but suddely head out of the mansion.
Ethan turned to face me and cupped my red cheeks in his hands making me look right into his eyes. "Now, I want you to go home and snuggle up all cute like you do, read a book, and I'll see you when everything is taking care of alright kitten?" He asked waiting for me to obey his command.
I opened my mouth to object, but he gave me a look telling me that was final. I sighed and nodded. He let go of my cheeks and walked me to the entrance.
I was about to walk away to my brothers car before I quickly walked back making a confused look appear on Ethan's face.
I bit my lip contemplating everything going through my mind.. I might as well just do it, I've done it before. I slowly walked up to him and stood on my tippy toes.
I place a kiss on his cheek letting it linger then pulled away. "Happy birthday Ethan." I whispered. He looked into my eyes with such emotion, one that I have yet to read about or experience.
He pulled me by my waist into his hard chest putting his head into my neck. He left a line of butterfly kisses there letting his hot breath hit my neck. It felt good.. and I had to resist the urge to make any noises at all.
"Stay safe my princess." He mumbled against my neck, then I hesitantly nodded and walked away to my brothers car.
After getting inside Nick sped off quickly, following Ethan's orders. I looked out the window watching the lights go over the car, and brighten my eye lids momentarily every few seconds.
I peeked up front seeing Nick was driving 80 in a 55. "Nicky slow down.. you're g-gonna kill us." I said quietly leaning on the center console. Nick slowed down a tiny bit making my nerves chill for a second.
"Liv do you know what's going on?" Max asked looking back at me with questioning eyes. I thought for a minute trying to think.. and every time all my thoughts led back to William.
I told them everything that happened with William, and they agreed that something fishy was going on. William was very diverse. Extravagant sharp edged beard, big build, jet black hair, and bright green eyes. He's not hard to pick out of a crowd. He also has this odd scar on his temple.
I wouldn't be surprised if he blended up the souls of puppies and ate them for breakfast, with the kind of glares he gives people. He's kind to me, but I don't think I would ever want to get on his bad side.
As we arrived in our drive way, I grabbed my phone and opened my door ready to get into some nice warm, fuzzy pajamas.

I woke up to the sound of my front door slamming shut. I jumped out of bed and peeked out my window, seeing it was still dark out. I slipped on my bunny slippers, and grabbed my bear. I can hear my heart beating out of my chest as if it was scared and ready to run away.
If anything is gonna protect me it will be this bear. I mean bears are scary, and they can attack you. Although he's made of fluff.. he's got a mean cuddle that might just strangle you, so watch out.
I tiptoed down the stairs and jumped when I heard the click of a gun. I felt the cold metal on my head and I slowly turned around seeing my dumbass brother. "Nick!" "Liv!" We yelled at the same time.
He pointed his gun down and pulled me in with one arm putting my head on his chest. His heart was beating so fast. "I'm sorry bubba." He said calmly.
"Who's here Nicky?" I asked looking up at him. He shrugged and started walking towards our living room where we saw two figures by the door.
I clenched my bear close to my chest not planning on letting go any time soon and suddenly the lights flicked on. After my eyes were rudely forced to be adjusted they finally did.
"Grayson.. Ethan?" Nick asked with concussion all over his face. They looked tired, and like they could fall over and sleep on the floor if they needed too.
Ethan walked over grabbing the gun and flicked his thumb making all the bullets fall out. "Watch where you point that thing hotshot." He said to Nick, then continued to slowly walk to me and smirk. "Is that bear your weapon princess?" He asked looking at the stuffy in my arms.
Guess what happens next. I furrowed my eyebrows and my lips pouted. How dare he disrespect this agent? Mr. Bear has been a highly trained assassin that's not to be messed with.
I will have you know this bear right here has protected me from some of the loudest thunder storms ever. Oh and don't even think about forgetting the case of the time we lost power.. he deserves a metal of honor for what he did that day.
"I'm just kidding doll, you're too cute." He said shaking his head with a deep chuckle. "Hey Livy." Grayson said walking over to me. I smiled and stood on two steps and opened my arms for both of them. They chuckled and walked towards me wrapping their arms around my body.
Suddenly I gasped. I'm the worst friend in the history of the entire universe.
All the guys looked at me, besides Max who was dead asleep. "I-I forgot to give you your presents." I said quietly. "And now its not your birthdays anymore." I said sadly.
"Livy you didn't have to get us anything." Grayson said nicely. I motioned for them to follow me up the stairs, which they did followed by Nick. They sat on the end of my bed as I went to my dresser and pulled out to small black bags, with black tissue paper.
I handed them to the guys. "I hope you like them." I said then I sat in my dresser across from them. They opened them taking out boxes, which then revealed black diamond bracelets.
Their jaws dropped making me smile. "Liv no way." Nick said. I nodded knowing exactly what he meant. "Liv do you want me to tell them?" Nick asked raising a brow. I shrugged and nodded.
Grayson and Ethan listened closely to Nick as he began talking. "It's pretty obvious we lack in the family department. Our dad used to wear a black diamond bracelet and our mom a matching one but as a necklace. Liv has a necklace and Max and I have bracelets. So, by Liv giving you guys those, she considers you family." He said with a soft smile.
The guys smiled and tackled me into a big hug making me giggle. "Thank you little one." Ethan whispered in my neck. "Thank you Livy." Grayson said on the other side.
I smiled as they pulled away. "Are you guys staying the night here? You can it's already two in the morning." Nick said. The twins nodded with a 'thanks.'
After everyone was situated I could finally go back to bed. Grayson and Ethan were in the spare bedroom, so I jumped back in my bed shutting my eyes.
I let my eyes flutter shut softly and nuzzled myself into my bed. I felt my body become overwhelmingly hot all of the sudden causing me to take off my wool pajama pants, leaving me in an extra large princess shirt and panties.
I rested my head back in my pillow rubbing my legs on the silk under my blanket and closing my eyes once again.
I almost jumped out of bed when I felt the other side of me dip down.
"Shh go to sleep angel." A deep voice said behind me. I turned around not being able to see very well without my contacts or glasses, but it doesn't take a genius to know it was Ethan.
"W-whats wring?" I asked tiredly sitting up in my bed. He rubbed his eyes tiredly making him look like a cute three year old ready for a nap. "Gray was snoring." He said deeper then usual letting his Italian lace through his words.
I nodded standing up but before I could leave my wrist was gently pulled. "Don't leave." He whispered. I giggled quietly. "I'm not, I-I'm gonna get some water." I whispered. He nodded and closed his eyes.
I slipped on my bunny slippers and headed for my door. I mentally scolded myself for not picking up my feet, because my slippers dragged on the floor making loud scrapping noises.
After getting some water I headed back upstairs to find Ethan asleep in my bed. I didn't expect him to be awake he probably had a long day. I need to remind myself to ask him what happened with William yesterday.
I lifted up the blanket on my side and slipped in carefully. A sleepy Ethan pulled me on top of him so my head was on his chest making me jump.
My heart stopped beating when he reached down grabbing me by my butt, and pulling me up further on his body so my head was in his neck.
Before I could protest he wrapped his arms around my lower back, holding me as if he was five and I was his teddy bear. Or in my case he was a seventeen year old girl who still has a bear.
I sighed and decided not to protest, because he would win either way. I put my head down in the little crook where his neck meets his broad shoulders and my eyes fluttered closed.
My legs fell to either side of him making my knees fall by his thighs. I put my arms around him and let my tiredness take over my whole body.
His deep voice made the hairs on my arms stand up. He captivated my mind with every word that was spoke through his thick voice.
"dormi bene, piccola, non andrò da nessuna parte." He whispered rubbing my lower back soothingly making a small smile grow on my face, and a rose tint rise to my cheeks.
(Translation> sleep well little one, I won't go anywhere)

☾
I was woken by a tingly feeling on my cheeks. I moved my eyes around that we're still closed and felt my eyelashes brush over my cheeks.
"Come on babygirl..I need you to wake up for me princess." A deep voice whispered making me open my eyes. I blinked a few times letting my eyes rest on a pair of green ones like no others.
He smiled making little dimples cave in on the sides of his cheeks. "There she is." He whispered rubbing my cheek with the back of his hand.
"Come on Babydoll, we got a mission today." He said with a growing smirk. I was scared for a moment that the first feeling I felt was excitement instead of fear..
I smiled and nodding rolling off of his warm body and standing up getting ready for my day.
My day.. as an agent for the Italian mafia and best friends with the mafia boss and his brother. What a start to such a great day.
You know what.. this might make a cool book. Who am I kidding.. no one wants to read about a seventeen year old baby.
I giggled at my redicoulous thoughts floating in my head. I'm odd.
