"Do you miss me Bella...mia" She could recognize that voice even in her sleep. She stood frozen looking at him with wide eyes. "W..what.." she tried speaking but immediately closed her mouth breathing hard. She glared at him HARD while a handsome smirk appeared on his face. "What the hell are you doing in my house?!" she said,his eyes moving across her body especially on her exposed legs. He suddenly stood on his feet and she moved back, his presence affecting her. "What happened to your elbow" he asked. That was actually the first thing he noticed when she stepped out of the bathroom with a red towel wrapped around her tiny frame. "Why should I tell you that. I owe you no explanation" She said feeling uncomfortable under his scrutinized gaze. He took three long strides towards her before pinning her to the wall, his hot breath fanning her neck. Lexi could feel her heart pounding in her chest as her eyes met his ocean blue eyes. She hates to deny it but he grew much more handsome than before. A slow smirk appeared on his lips as he wrapped his arms around her waist. Lexi shook, trying to push him off but he stood gallantly like a statue, his height towering above her.

Chapter: Chapter 24— Cry!
Flashback 11—"Oh my fuçkin’ Gawd," he exclaimed. His hand was still on the phone screen, his fingers tracing every curve, every contour of her face. He badly wanted to take off every piece of clothing on her body, rip it off and pin her to his bed, under his mercy. She wouldn’t like it, he knew, but he couldn’t help it. And he didn’t care either.It took all his self-control to stop looking at the picture. He went back to the group chat and typed a response. When he was done, he left the chat, and his eyes caught another message from a contact saved as 'Bella Mia'.Bella Mia: Let’s meet.He smirked after reading her message. She finally texted him, after he had waited so long. Yeah, he waited, 'cause he knew she would come running back. Nickolai had been right when he said he took Rania to school to make her jealous. She probably hadn’t realized it, but he saw it, the shocked look on her face, replaced by jealousy and anger. It was satisfying.He went to Google and searched '

Flashback 10 -6 days later~The Thompson's House, 7:00 pmLexi and her friends were in her room, helping her practice for the talent show tomorrow. Lexi wanted another rehearsal, so Sasha decided they should have a girls' sleepover at her place. They were all dressed in their pyjamas, and Raven brought the idea of wearing catty head warmers."Ahh! I'm so fuckin' tired. These heels are wearing my legs out," Lexi complained as she took off the heels she was wearing and threw them on the floor in frustration."You see, that's the point," Sasha encouraged, sitting down on Lexi's bed. "A model always has her struggles, but instead of voicing it out, you throw your frustrations on the crowd-the audience who are watching.""C'mon, let's do this again. You can do this, Lexi! Woohoo! Wow! Wow!" Sasha cheered, clapping her hands. She tapped Raven, who was on her phone, and Raven looked up, clapping too."Yes, Sasha's right, you can do this, Lexi," Raven said, cheering her on as well. Lexi smil

Flashback 9~As Antonio and Rania walked by, hand in hand, his eyes met Lexi's, and for a fleeting moment, Lexi felt like she was frozen in time. Antonio's gaze lingered on hers, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. Rania, sensing his attention, turned to follow his gaze, her eyes narrowing slightly as she took in Lexi's stricken expression.The sound of cheering and whistling gradually faded into the background as Lexi's focus remained fixed on Antonio. She felt like she was drowning in a sea of emotions, unable to look away from their direction. Sasha, noticing Lexi's distress, placed a gentle hand on her arm."Hey, are you okay?" she whispered, concern etched on her face. Lexi nodded, trying to compose herself. "Yeah, I'm fine," she lied, forcing a weak smile onto her face.Raven chimed in, "Let's go then, the show is over." Sasha replied excitedly, "Not yet, the talent show is next week, and I couldn't be more thrilled!" Lexi's curiosity got the better of her, "What's the talent

Flashback 8HD Italian Clubhouse ~After leaving her house earlier, Antonio thought of going back to the mansion, but he thrashed the idea. He decided to come to HD, one of the most notorious clubhouses in Italy. Now, he was sitting alone, staring at nothing in particular; she clouded his thoughts - her scent, her words - and he could only fold his fists as he remembered what she said. Her words rang madly in his head:"I appreciate the fact that you saved me yesterday from those guys,""But what I do not appreciate is you calling me by my surname and scaring my friends off. I do not want anything to do with you, not now, not ever. So, the faster you get out of my sight, the better for you."His jaw tightened; he inhaled sharply through his nose. His eyes were red, and his veins popped out on his arms, visible since his sleeves were rolled up.'Her surname? Who cares about her fuçkin surname? She said she doesn't want anything to do with me! Oh, she will regret that statement by the t

Flashback 7~She walked to the door and opened it, but stopped when her phone rang. "Mom, calling! Mom calling!" her iPhone assistant announced, and she picked the call. "Mom—" Lexi said, and was cut off by her mother's stern voice."Where are you, Alexis?" her mother asked, and Lexi bit her lips, trying to come up with a convincing lie. "Mom... mommy... I—" Lexi stuttered."Alexis, I asked you a question, and I demand an answer," her mother said, and Lexi looked at Antonio with pleading eyes. 'Help me out here,' she whispered, removing her phone from her ear. He mouthed a 'no' and she frowned."Are you still there?... Alexis," her mother asked, the worry in her voice growing. "Yeah... I I—" she said, and was cut off by Antonio, who took the phone from her ear and put it on speaker."She is with me," he said, his voice calm and confident, while Lexi's eyes widened in shock. 'When did he even get here?' she thought."Who is this, and what do you mean by my daughter is with you?" her mo

Flashback 6 ~ He took a step closer, his eyes narrowing. "Get on the bike while I'm still being nice, or I'll spank your stubborn ass so hard that whenever you sit down, you'll remember this day." He said, his voice devoid of a threat, but his eyes told a different story. But she wasn't a girl who would just back down because of a threat. She raised her chin in defiance and smiled naughtily. "I'm not going anywhere with you, and read my lips: DO...YOUR...WORST." His face hardened, and his jaws ticked as she said that. "Are you challenging me now, Bella Mia?" he asked with an amused smile. She frowned. He wasn't supposed to smile; she had planned on getting on his nerves and pushing him to his limits. "What's that? What did you just call me?" she asked, fisting his shirt in her palms like someone ready to fight. He smirked as an idea popped into his head; he stared down at her tiny fingers caging a part of his shirt. He looked back at her and chuckled. She was tiny in compari
