BiancaDarko was waiting for me outside the villa. Seeing him warmed my heart in a way that I couldn't explain and I smiled.I didn't expect him to smile back but he did. A shy smile crept out of his face, making him look like a teenager. But quickly, he averted his gaze and stuck his hands into his pockets.What the heck is wrong with him? I have never seen this side of him before. The smile soon vanished from his face, he rounded up the car and held one of the side doors open for me.I approached the car with indecision. It was an overwhelming day with Tiffany and the effect of the whole drama was beginning to tell on me. The last thing I wanted was to be cramped up in a room. I wanted to be free and enjoy the scenery for a while.As I approached Darko, an unreadable expression had already taken over his face but I still gave it a shot."Tiffany is asleep… and I don't want to go back to the mansion yet… Can I just have a few minutes to walk around? I mean… I can see the… the winepre
Bianca"Tyler!!!" I yelled again running after the stranger, but Darko caught up with me. He dragged my arm from behind and dragged me to himself "Ma'am, we have to get out of here. There could be an after effect of the explosion!" He tried to explain."Let me go!" I screeched and jerked my arm but he didnt bulge."Let me go! Please. I think I saw someone," I yelled and looked in the direction where I had seen the man, but he had vanished already.No! I pushed Darko away and this time he landed on the ground. It was the opening that I needed to flee.I had just taken a few steps, looking for the man that disappeared when the ground shook beneath me. I was thrown up in the air and towards the inferno."Aha!" I yelled in fear wishing I had listened to Darko. Slowly, I sat up and began to drag my butt in dirt and away from the inferno. Darko appeared right behind me. He dabbed his strong hands on my shoulders and dragged me off the floor.I saw him wince as he did and it hurt my heart.
Santiago's pov A beautiful smile hung on the corner of my lips as my SUV halted on one of the barren lands at Lake Como in Italy.My guards threw the door open and took their position. They all bowed as I strutted out of the car. With straight strides, shoulders high and a prideful look, I prowled down my private air strip.The warm breeze of the desert ruffled my skin and hair, giving me a grand welcome. I missed the coolness of my car already but it didn't matter. Italy was more favourable than I had expected.I couldn't believe that the White Mafia was the brain behind the Trojan Cartel. I met their Lord who seemed delighted to see me."Good! You took great care of Romano's empire. He didn't make a mistake choosing you over his greedy sons," Lord Simba said as he stuck out his hand for a handshake.I was surprised that he knew so much about me. He must be one of my father's allies. I thought.Above all, the deal to deliver 500 tons of poppy pods succeeded. I signed the multi mil
Santiago Rick was the first to bump in. "I didn't know that you were back until I saw the message," he said, looking worn out and worried."How is the clean up?" I asked grimly."We should be done tomorrow!"I hit the desk hard and he flinched."I want it done before dawn!""Yes sir!" He responded meaningfully."Where are others? They're supposed to be here already!" I thundered."They are here… waiting at the conference room," Rick responded, I shot out of my office and headed down to the conference room.It was a ten man gathering, including Rick and I. Just like Rick said, the remaining eight men were already present. They rose to their feet as I walked in.The urgency of the issue at hand was written all over their faces but I wasn't impressed."It's not enough to look concerned and worried, we have to tighten our belts. Isn't it disgusting that a big fall out like this occurred and there was just one suspect who escaped alive!?" "Whoever did this must be brought to book!" I ba
BiancaI didn't know what made me afraid. I thought I had had enough intimacy with Santiago… I even longed to be with him. But when he showed up unexpectedly in his daughter's room, my heart tumbled.Was it the way he stared at me? There was something unnerving about him. His looks and the way he glared at me when he saw me in Tiffany's bed… it gave me the scare. I almost threw Tiffany's head away from my lap to flee, but he stopped me.What the heck is the deal with him? If he wanted me to stay, why did he glare down at me?Well, I somehow understood him. He must be feeling horrible, his estate was almost razed down.As for me, I couldn't be more thankful when he left almost immediately. I bounced out the bed and made my way home. Tiffany was calm and asleep, my mission in her villa had ended.As usual, different types of light illuminated the estate making the night look like it was daytime.The wind was a little strong tonight. It blew my gown here and there and I fought hard to p
SantiagoThe call from the white mafia made it clear. This was just a replica of the issue I had with Richo. The only difference was the scale. Unlike 500 tons of poppy pods, Richo's consignment was just a few kilos of pyrite dust, a crystalline dust of unrefined gold.Could Bianca and her father just be a pawn in this game? My men had been in a fix for months, investigating Bianca's father's claims. It was confirmed that he and some men whom he said were strangers did rob the warehouse where the merchandise was stored.He also claimed that after the operation, the goods were given to him but he lost it mysteriously on his way home.A lot of facts were missing and I thought his account was cooked up. It didn't add that they gave him the goods after the operation.I will have to visit the man to hear him out again. This time, not as his captor, but as a sympathiser. Who knows, I could get some clues that I had missed earlier.Different thoughts rampaged my head as I walked into Tiffany
SantiagoThe car came to a screeching halt in front of the Bandas gates. I strutted out of the car with one of my guards behind me. I presumed that the security team inside had seen me. Their eyes were glued on me as they gave feedback to one another."Lord San of the Castillo Mafia," one of the guards said and I nodded."How can I help you?" Another one asked and I looked up sharply.I kept my cool and responded, "I am here to see Lord Antonio Palmer."The one who asked frowned and gave me a demeaning look. He seemed new and that might be his undoing."I am sorry, but all protocols must be duly observed. Did you make a reservation?" He responded.What a fucker! My hands darted to my waist and I brought out my gun, ready to fire the nuisance.His eyes widened as I pointed the gun at him!"Don't, San, give him some time." I heard Derrick's voice in my head and my grip on the trigger loosen.The fucker stood in front of me with his hands thrown up in the air. A gun was in front of him
SantiagoMy guard joined me and together we walked out of Antonio's presence. That was quite a scare. It's been a long time since I felt such enormous fear. I couldn't believe that walking out on Antonio was a death warrant on its own.What he said about Eve, his daughter, and my ex wife made me mad. Did he expect me to wait for her? I wasn't expecting her to return.Back to the issue at hand. It was hard to believe that Lorenzo had paid a visit to my father in law, craving an alliance with him. What extent will he go to take me down?About my sentiments, it was high time, I let it go, just like Antonio had suggested. The complicated part is that nothing gave me the assurance that the old geezer wasn't playing Lorenzo and me. Such a powerful boss, can't be trusted.The van drove us outside the palace where my car was parked."Get in the back seat," I ordered my guards and took the driver's seat myself. I just walked out alive from a death hole and I was ready for another wild goose ch
Bianca's povThe ray of light beam gaily across the blinds and I wingled softly.I tried to spread myself but I couldn't,I was held tightly by a force and a warm breath tingled across my neck evenly.I froze with the body beside me. Did someone enter my room? I almost kicked the body of me but he cuddled me tighter holding me close to his body.We were both naked and our body intertwined like that of a fish. My eyes widened and I remained still debating on what just happened . Is that really Santiago? I screamed in my head unbelievably and tried to beep at his sleeping face..Oh God damnit! He look too peaceful and placid in his sleep Did Santiago forget to wake up or something? We have never spent the night together and in most cases he always makes me go to my room or leave me in bed.Oh we are not in our room ! but then the glass wall twinkled millions of lights and to the west,the setting sun cast a golden glow over the room.The thought of how Santiago poured me a glass of cha
Santiago Fresh flowers and candles adorn the space as I carried Bianca straight to the room.I guess the champagne had some effect on her as she clinged to me daring to satisfy each other's desire I have never seen her this way, she burns with lust and passion for me as our bodies collide on the bed. She wrapped up her legs in between my thighs and curled my balls with a warm palm.She set me on fire and I was ready to burn her immensely. I unzipped her dress this time and pull it of in a sec while I unclasped her bra to fling in the air I gasped for air as Bianca unzip my trousers with the same energy revealing my cock fully. She smirked, biting her lower lips seductively and calling with her eyes. I still can't believe my eyes. I giggled softly.“ You seem to want this more than I do". I teased her, smoothing my hardness for her and she blushed red instantly.I removed the last piece of fabric covering her nakedness and sniffed it before dropping it. She was expecting me on her
SantiagoThis is a part of me I never thought still existed as the driver revived the car and veered off I wanted to draw Bianca closer to myself in the car and pin her down to cuddle on the back seat This is what I have never thought of doing in my ride with any woman. Each of them always maintains their space while some fear sitting next to me.I noticed a few strands of her hair wandering around as I help her tugged it in slowly and brushed through her ear.I saw her shiver to my touch and her eyes were locked in surprise.I shrugged it off instantly, fixing my gaze on my phone's screen.Bianca's looks gave away her emotions the moment the driver drove past her villa and headed straight to my mansion.I thought briefly on what she would think about me seeing the bond between her and her father.Knowing fully well Bianca and her father were just used by my unrelenting enemy I felt trapped in my feelings.I still find it hard to figure out if my strong emotions were out of pity or
Bianca My father looked away and couldn't say any more words. He shrugged my hands off his shoulders and I glanced away. That was when I remembered to look at Santiago, his hands was placed on the table and he was looking at us.Our eyes met and I looked away from him. His face was cold and expression-less as usual.With the back of my palm, I cleaned off the tears that were threatening to overflow.Silently, Santiago's hand delved into his pocket, he brought out a folded paper and placed it on the table.My eyes widened as he unfolded and dressed the paper. It was a brightly printed picture of the stranger that I had mistook for Tyler after the explosion."Do you seem to recognize him?" Santiago asked, pointing at the picture.My father picked up the picture, giving it a closer look. His forehead crisped up in a frown and he stared down at the picture.I was on a hot seat. My body was on fire and I sniffed as I shifted nervously on my seat."No," my father finally said and dropped
Bianca POV"I want nothing but the truth," Santiago suddenly said and reclined into his seat, looking straight into my father's eyes.I knew Santiago had come here for a reason not because he actually wanted to see a father bonding with her daughter.I sit upright, tightening my grip harder."I brought your daughter so that she can witness nothing but the truth..”. I paused calmly and continued carefully.“ The theft that made me lock you up with your daughter isn't just as simple as it seems. If you tell me the truth, you ain't only helping me but also helping yourself”.Santiago concluded and glared sternly into my eyes and my father did the same. I begged him with my eyes and reassured Santiago to trust my father he would say the truth I squeezed my father's hand and he nodded his head abruptly He sighed heavily and sipped down his drink shakily."Tell me everything you know. How the operation went down," Santiago demanded again." I am just a street father trying to survive an
Bianca Don’t cry baby “. My father kept stroking my back quietly like he always did when I was child and each time I missed my mom.My father is quite a good drunkard and won't think better when he deep his hands in shady stuff but he was a better father even though he couldn't provide all my needsHe patted me harder and I tried to simmer down a bit.I staggered backwards and started looking through my father's body if there were any bruises or wounds not attended too.I really don't know what is going on in my head but I was overwhelmed seeing my father " I'm fine! I'm fine “. My Dad yelled slightly, stopping me from checking his body further I nodded my head firmly and held his hands tightly.“Are you truly okay? I asked worriedly again and I couldn't believe my ears" Look at you my dear! You look so beautiful like your mother and worried exactly like her.” My father complimented and teased me, slightly before he smirked.It feels like have not seen my father in long years and
BiancaThe car stopped in front of a wooden house.It looks like an ancient building but well cared for and cultivated I looked through the door eagerly as Santiago stepped out and I followed the suite The fallen leaves formed a carpet at the doorstep as one of the guards led the way through and I strolled at Santiago sides quietly We reached a bar of brass within the building and my thoughts skipped endlessly at what awaits me.The outside of the building just looked old but the inside looks newly fashioned and neat One of the guards that seemed like a housekeeper rushed towards Santiago. He bowed and walked us through leading to a mini roomThe house looked warm and welcoming to a stage but I couldn't look around "Bring him," Santiago commanded with a very husky voice and the man left .I felt a bit uneasy and troubled at that moment, my gaze met with Santiago whose eyes remained calm before I averted from him. I was ushered to take a seat and I sat across the table which I di
BiancaOn my way back home I still couldn't believe my ears.Did Santiago really know how much I wanted to ask him about my father on different occasions but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Especially the first night he took me in. I desperately wanted to see my father.Tears almost filled my eyes and I wondered what changed.Could it be that I had really done something to deserve it.Different thoughts flaunt through my head and stillness envelope me with the new guard in the car.Luckily I was taken aback by the screeching sound of the tyre that came to halt. We were already at the villa.I took a deep breath before stepping out of the car.I walked through the door absentmindedly and shut the door abruptly.The thought of how Santiago rampage through my body in his office and the urge of how much he wanted to have me run through my head and I smiled sheepishly.But then the most important question came up in my mind. Where were Santiago's scars? Even if I didn't know about other
Bianca The new guard, a blonde with yellow skin, drove me down to Santiago's office.I was gussied up in a simple tea green slitted gown that hung on my knee elegantly and a dashing lip balm graces my lips I didn't know what the occasion was for, but I looked simple and wondered what I would want l to do in his office.This time I was clueless, I couldn't think of what he wanted from me with the way he looked at me yesterday and the incident and tension at hand.Fear gripped my heart, but I walked stylishly as I was led into the elevator. The elevator stopped and I was led down the hallway until we stopped in front of Santiago's office.I remembered the door, I had been here before. The feelings of what happened the previous time surged up in my head and I got goosebumps almost immediately.The doors opened on it accord as I stepped in revealing Santiago looking hot and dashing with his eyes burning in lust.It was the burning sensation in his eyes that scared me out.A dangerous sm
