Jax's POV

I had one chance to win her over and give her a reason to forgive me. I know that she would never fully forgive me and to me that was completely understandable. She owns every single part of me whether I liked it or not. She manages to cause a whirlpool in my mind, only focusing on her, I love her too much to ever let her go.

She fell asleep slowly after our conversation in the car, leaving me to my thoughts. I only had two nights and three days before leaving and there were way too many activities to do in the city of love. I had a couple planned already. By the time we reached the airport, she was deep asleep and I had no plan to ruin her peace so I carried her into the private plane and laid her in her seat while, I took the seat next to her.

The plane ride went quite quickly and it was around 2 in the morning when we landed in Paris and as no surprise Reina was still fast asleep. She could probably sleep for 15 hours and still want more sleep. I carried her into the hotel and laid her on the bed, while I quickly changed into grey joggers as I laid next to her. I bought her close to my chest and my arms around her waist and quickly fell asleep.

With the sunlight piecing through the blinds, I opened my eyes adjusting to the brightness and at around the same moment, Reina's eyes fluttered open.

"Good morning," I muttered to her while kissing her forehead hard.

"Ugh, what's the time?" she asked with her sleepy voice.

I reached over to my phone which was on the small bed table on her side of the bed.

"It's half past ten."

"Noooo, I want to sleep some more," she said while coming closer into my chest, burying her face to avoid even the smallest speck of light that she could even see.

"Come on Nem, we got to get going I have a day planned out with you properly," I said while throwing the duvet away from her.

"NOOOOO!" she yelled but I quickly shut her up by slamming my lips onto her. After pulling away, I saw a tiny smile. Perhaps too small but nonetheless a smile that I had caused. Fuck, I would pay millions to see her smile. It's far too beautiful for this world and no man is truly worthy of seeing it.

Quickly, I got up before she could realise I was hard and headed towards the bathroom to brush my teeth and jumped in for a quick shower. Near the end of my shower, the door creaked open and I saw Reina's figure at the sink making weird noises while she brushed her teeth.

I grabbed the towel nearest and wrapped it around my waist, before stepping out of the shower. She slowed down the speed at which she was brushing her teeth non stop, while her eyes trailed. I went to the suitcase that I had packed for both me and her and pulled out some casual jeans and a black hot, while quickly scribbling a note.

I'll be back pretty quick but choose some clothes that I picked out in the suitcase, Nem. -Love Narc

Within fifteen minutes, I came back to the hotel and saw Reina with a summer dress on, highlighting her body figure and she wore some elegant gold heels, portraying as a Goddess. Her beauty would always keep me on my toes no matter what. Everything about her was just simply ethereal.

"You look gorgeous," I said while coming closer to her and tracing her hip bone with my fingers getting a good look of her face. Her hazel brown eyes were the only thing that I could get lost in. I planted a soft peck on her lips before tugging her hand taking her out of the door.

I opened the car door for her while she got in and I went to the driver's seat. Within 20 minutes, we reached the Luxembourg palace. It was a beautiful palace which was surrounded by 100 hectares of green land.

"Where on fucking hell are we?" she demanded.

"Luxembourg palace, Nem." I said while taking a picnic basket out of the trunk of the car and leading her to an isolated place.

I finally found a spot but then I turned around to her and said, "close your eyes and turn around,"

"What the hell is this place for?" she said while turning around.

I slowly started placing out the food out as well as a prosecco bottle and some champagne bottle. "It has historical importance and now it has the senat conservateur living there,"

She had a light chuckle, which already made me feel aroused, "you like history?"

"My favourite subject, baby."

I slowly walked towards her and guided her to the picnic with her eyes closed.

"Open your eyes, Nem,"

She looked around but her expression was unreadable until he broke into a smile.

"You did this?" she asked with shock.

"Mmhm," I responded neutrally. Who would have knew that the ruthless American mafia boss would have been the one to make a picnic to the one woman who didn't want anything to do with me? Definitely not me at any point in my life. Hell, I would kneel for this woman in front of anyone. She really was my everything, the moment she walked into my life.

She sat down elegantly while taking the strawberries, that I had washed earlier on, out of its container and slowly ate them. I knew she had a thing for strawberries.

"Fucking hell, I love strawberries, Narc."

"Good thing, there's a strawberry tree I grew for you in the backyard." Every single part of her was celebrated to have importance in my heart. I didn't plan on ever letting her go.

"OH MY GOD! YOU GOT ADELINA'S CHOCOLATE MUFFINS." She screamed in excitement.

"Of course I did, I owe it to her and Serephina for persuading you to come,"

"Damn it," she muttered under her breath. Time flew past while we made some talk about what she was up to in Sicily while I was in America, grieving.

At the end, she proposed a toast, "to rekindling old friendships," she said smiling, acknowledging the fact that it would piss me off.

Instantaneously, I grabbed her wrist shooting her a glare, telling her to change it. However, she challenged me with another cheeky smile.

"To giving new chances to old love," I stated while inching closer to her. I gave her a small kiss on her left cheek and let go of her wrists to let her drink. She gave a light chuckle while chugging down the prosecco, like the beast she fucking was.

"We need to go somewhere else as well," I stated while starting to pack up some of food.

"But I want to eat some of these mini chocolate chip cookie bites," she whined.

"You can eat them on the way out," I stated while offering her a hand for her to get up; she took it willingly and I took advantage of this and bought her closer to me wrapping my arms around her. I planted a kiss on her hair, which smelt of lavender and honestly, that was the only thing keeping me on my toes. She intoxicated me. I held her in my arms for a couple of minute. The silence between us wasn't at all awkward but comfortable in all sorts of ways.

I led her hand to the car; letting her in first. She opened the window wide as she fell asleep peacefully. Her mind was at rest obviously she wanted to take her normal naps. The girl loved sleeping too much.

I used the time wisely and called Angelo and Felix to give me updates on shipments and other mafia related business. Before, I knew it we reached the location.

"Nem," I murmured into her ear while giving her small kisses on her neck.

"Ughh, Narc," she tossed to the other side to face me. She leaned in close to me while bringing her hand to my cheeks.

"You know how we forget everything that happened when we came on this trip," she stated while coming closer, "I really really really like your face. Hell, I might love it,"

Fuck, she took my breath away every single moment of my day. I was lucky to see her and hell I was privileged to be in her presence. Control, Jax, Control.

"Nem, I love you but we got to get going. We're on a schedule."

"You're a tease, baby," she spoke to me while getting out of the car.

After walking for a while, we reached the wall of love.

"You bought us to the wall of love, Jax, even though we aren't together," she asked raising an eyebrow.

"Mmmhm," I grumbled as I pulled out a marker and wrote both our names on the wall.

Reina looked at it for a while and then went to a separate part of the wall, which was a little empty and wrote Reina + Nuggets

Of course she did.

"You seriously wrote that?" I asked.

"You can't be jealous of a chicken nuggets. It's literally impossible,"

"Mmhmm, I guess it's possible now," I groaned as I pulled her into a hug. "There's a cute coffee shop couple streets away. Let's go,"

I carried on avoiding eye contact with the fucking thing she wrote on the wall. While we walked, she could somehow sense I was a little pissed off. She held my hand and gave it a squeeze.

As we entered the coffee shop, we walked in and I was met with a gun to my face.

"Martinez." A deep voice declared.
