Vince didn't remember ever having a romantic date. The few times he sat down to eat with a woman, it was always in one of the restaurants designed for this type of meeting. And what's more, always having met the woman on the same day, without preparation. In a way, he was nervous. If Lina decided to sleep with him, it would also be the first time he would take a woman's virginity. ‘I thought I would only do this on my wedding night’, he thought, because whether he wanted to or not, he would have to get married. And it wouldn't be in such a distant future, after all, the Don of Cosa Nostra needed to have an heir, born within the bonds of marriage. When Lina left the building, he held his breath without realizing it. Vince had never seen a more beautiful creature. She seemed to have an inner light, emanating from every pore. He swallowed hard and felt his pants tighten in the front. ‘Take a deep breath, you’re going to dinner.’ Francesco opened th
Lina was confused, since they were having dinner. Vince took her to a sort of balcony, where a round table for two was set up. A waiter was waiting for them, with a bottle of champagne. Dinner by candlelight. She looked at Vince. “Wow, it’s wonderful,” “You haven't even tried the food yet,” he said and held the chair for her to sit down. “Just this table... It's already romantic enough,” she sighed. Vince hated it when women made lovey-dovey looks when with him. But Lina... She wasn't sucking up to him or trying to seduce him. She was genuinely delighted. A kind of pride took over him. He had planned the whole thing himself, including the flowers around it. She sat down, he moved her chair forward and sat down opposite her. The alcoholic drink was served, along with a cold cuts board. Lina looked at the cheeses and knew she had never eaten that. “Grana Padano. My favorite,” Vince said and took one of the pieces of cheese and offered it
It was Nico's ringtone, but Vince took the device and clicked ‘reject’. However, before he reached Lina, the cell phone rang again. For Nico to insist, it was something important. Vince grunted. “What the fuck?” he asked, answering his cell phone. “Guido is dead,” Nico announced, bluntly, on the other end of the line. “Apparently, Bartolomeo Scarpinato is back.” Upon hearing the name of the man who ordered his parents' death, the expression on Vince's face changed completely. He waited years to be able to put an end to Scarpinato with his own hands. The man had spent years hiding in Italy, where Vince couldn't attack him head-on. He said something quietly to Nico and hung up. Lina, who was nearby, heard that someone had died. She took her dress and put it on. When Vince turned to her, she was ready to go downstairs, to grab her purse and leave. “Lina...” “It's okay. I don't know exactly who, but I heard a little of what your
Lina, who had left the bedroom door open, heard a noise outside the apartment and went to see what it was. When she passed by Maddie 's room, she knew that her friend was listening to loud music, as could be heard even through the bedroom door. Lina opened the front door and Vince was there, sitting on the floor. In fact, more fallen to the side than sitting. She looked down at the hall and there was no one there. She pulled him inside, with difficulty, and closed the door. Vince wasn't completely unconscious, so Lina helped him go to her room, laying him on the bed. Only then could she see that he had been shot in the shoulder and was bleeding profusely. Lina ran to the kitchen, grabbed some clean clothes, heated water, and returned to the bedroom. He moaned softly and still held the gun in one hand. Lina tried to remove it, but he closed his fingers around the weapon. “I need you to put this to the side. I have to clean your wound, Vince.”
Nervously, she said yes. Lina's fingers trembled terribly. She was afraid to touch his private parts. It was a mix of shame and desire, and she scolded herself for thinking about these things when the man was hurt. The night before, the atmosphere was completely different! Vince noticed her fingers and closed his eyes momentarily. Even if he had a bad shoulder, if she rode him, he would gladly accept it. He would rather fuck than take a painkiller for the pain and black out. “I'm going to need you to pull down my underwear, too,” Vince said hoarsely, and Lina looked at him, surprised. She noticed the naughty look on his face. “I can't believe you're being funny even now!” she complained, in disbelief. “You're shot!” “You talk as if I were dead...” he mocked. “And I'm not kidding. I really need you to help me.” “And what else? Are you going to make me hold your... Y-your ...” she asked, nervously, without being able to say the name of t
You'd better stay here with me. We can order delivery,” he smiled hopefully.“You can't eat anything. And I don't even know how the doctor didn't send you to the hospital for a transfusion.”“Humm ...Please, principessa. I'm going to starve, here. I didn't die from the bullet, but I will die if I don't eat. But I also don't want you to leave,” It wasn't just for her company, but Vince had his doubts that they wouldn't try to hunt Lina down.She couldn't resist those brown eyes of his. He was sexy, even in a bed, sick, and with deep dark circles under his eyes.“Okay!” she finally said. “But if you get sick, I won't clean up your vomit. I'll let you sleep dirty,” she threatened.He laughed, but not too much, or the stitches might open.“You're not going to do that because you need to sleep here with me. And I doubt you'll want to sleep with vomit right under your nose.”“And who said I have to sleep with you? I can go to Maddie 's room.”Vince's smile faltered. He knew that was a possi
When Maddie got home, Lina had fallen asleep on the couch. She nudged her friend just so she could go to her room and not wake up sore from having spent the night in an uncomfortable position on that sofa.Lina was sad. Vince acted very stupidly and didn't even apologize. She understood that she was just someone he wanted to relieve himself with, not maintain a relationship, not even friendship. And she couldn't even blame him, really. He said clearly what he wanted her for, no strings attached, no promises. And she, like an idiot, decided to accept it.“If he still wants something to do with me, I'll say no!” she decided, already in the bedroom. Lina was never the adventurous type with men and after that situation, she realized that she never would be. She was one to get attached, not able to just ignore the sentimental side.With that in mind, she went to sleep. She called Gambino and explained she was unwell.The next morning, she and Maddie got out of their respective rooms almost
Olivia opened her mouth, but nothing came out. She stayed like that, like a fish out of water.Maddie closed the restroom door in Olivia's face before the girl could speak again. “Maddie, she's going to pick on you now,” Lina said, worried. Maddie shrugged.“Screw it! And I don't mind putting her in her place. If I'm expelled, I'll take that feeling with me: having stuck my hand in that slut's face.”When Maddie and Lina left the restroom, Olivia was no longer there.“At least she left,” Maddie smiled.“And so am I,” Lina said. She was definitely not in the mood to attend any classes anymore.“Are you sure? Are you going to tell the professors?” Maddie asked, Lina nodded. She didn't usually missed classes, and the professors knew that she would only miss if she was in trouble, “Okay, then I'll go with you.”“No. At least one of us must have good grades,” Lina said and laughed weakly. Maddie got the message: Lina wanted privacy.“Okay. So, anything, you call me.”“Don’t worry
Vince came over and gave her a good slap on the buttock.“Damn it!” he said, bending down and licking Lina. “Your taste is so perfect!” “Then eat me!” she teased, moving her thighs in circles in his face. “Cazzo!” Vince went back to licking Lina, holding her buttocks open. He only stopped when she was almost reaching orgasm. Then Vince stood. Lina whimpered. “You're going to cum on my dick, hottie.” “I want to suck you,” in response, she received a slap on the butt. “Later. Now I want to feel you squeezing me all over with that greedy pussy.” And without further ado, Vince positioned himself and started pushing, eliciting moans and screams from Lina. Vince held tightly to Lina's waist and increased the pace of his thrusts. “Vince! Oh, my love!” “My wife!” he started to thrust deeper. “My wife. I love you!” Vince was burning with happiness and pride. This was the first time they had been intimate
Everyone turned to look at the church entrance. A completely disheveled Noah was there. He looked drunk and his eyes were bloodshot.“Noah?” Lina asked and glanced at Vince.“You can't marry him,” Noah said. “The baby is mine!”There was commotion in the church. Lina opened her mouth, not believing what Noah was saying. Vince's eyes instantly went dark. The whispers of the Organizations members began. Some Camorra men were present, of course.“Get him OUT of here!” Vince ordered, indicating the church door, with his arm outstretched.“No! I'm not leaving! She is mine! You stole her from me, but she loves me, and we made this child.”Lina had already put up with too much. Noah had publicly humiliated her when he announced his relationship with Olivia. Then, every time they saw each other at college, and even at a party. He always allowed Olivia to make fun of her.Now, to invade her wedding and talk that nonsense? Oh, hell no! She wouldn't allow that anymore! On top of that, he was sti
She was completely ready except for the jewelry.Maddie started putting them on and Lina wanted to cry. Around her neck, she wore the chain that Vince had given her and also the one her mother had given her. In fact, it was a gift from Bartolomeo to her and, even though she was hurt by it, Maryam had never thrown it away.When Bartolomeo saw the necklace around Lina's neck, he was extremely moved. He then confirmed how much Maryam loved him, until the end. She needed money, but she never got rid of the jewelry. Now, the one wearing the necklace with a single sapphire, surrounded by diamonds, was Lina. The yolk wasn't big, especially because her mother didn't want it to be that way. Bartolomeo bought her a perfect piece of jewelry.“There,” Maddie said, finishing arranging Lina's hair back into place, after putting on the necklace. “And control yourself. Makeup is waterproof, but still, it is not eternal.”Lina nodded and stood up. She opted for a model with an ‘Empire’ style skirt. It
“You'll have to have dinner with me,” Renzo noticed the girl's nervousness and, as much as he had thought they could go out together and end up in bed, he changed his mind.“D-dinner?”“Yes. Dinner. I promise I won't attack you or anything. I just want to get to know you better.”“But why?” Carina asked, even more confused.“What do you mean by asking me this?”Renzo didn't understand her question.“What is your intention? Why do you want to get to know me better?”“I think you’re pretty, interesting, but I don't know much about you, other than that you're beautiful and you know how to sew very well.”Carina turned all red.“I think you better stop the car. I'll order a taxi from here,”Carina's heart was beating so hard, to the point that her head was spinning.“Hey, Hey! Why the sudden change?”Carina looked at him, clearly hurt.“I don't know why you decided to make fun of me, but I don't have to continue with this game. Please stop the car!”“Wow, chills! And who said I was making
“Shut up, idiot!” Nico said between his teeth.“Well, well…”“Maddie?” It was Carina.“Cari!” Maddie said, pulling Carina closer.“Ah, I just came to deliver the coat you left back there. They're closing things down and I thought you wouldn't want to leave it there.”“Thanks!” Maddie was thankful. She liked that coat. It was a gift from her mother, who unfortunately couldn't go because Maddie's father was sick.“You look great, Carina!” Lina commented. “And congratulations! I knew you sewed, but just by listening. I had never seen your creations. They are very beautiful and of excellent quality!”Carina turned all red and Renzo, who was looking at her, noticed it.‘Her cheeks look pretty, flushed like that.’“Let me see that eyeliner!” Lina asked. “I swear I try but I just can't!”Carina laughed and took off her glasses. The super thick lenses distorted her eyes. She had her eyes closed, but when she opened them, still without her glasses, Renzo couldn't stop looking at her.‘Lei... L
She looked back and saw Noah. He seemed to be healthier than the last time they had seen each other.“Oh, hi…?” she replied, holding the folder to her chest.“Is everything good? Ah… where is Lina? I never saw her again. Is she okay?”“She is great!” Maddie knew that Noah was trying to get closer to Lina, so she thought it best to deliver the fatal blow. “She's engaged. Officially.”Noah's smile trembled.“Fi-fiancé?”“Yes. They’re getting married soon.”Maddie was not one to forgive easily. And she never forgave Noah for breaking Lina's heart. She just didn't hate him at all because if it weren't for that, Lina wouldn't have met Vince and wouldn't be so happy today.“Everything okay here?” Nico approached them and glared at Noah, who swallowed hard. “Yeah. I was just telling Noah that Lina is engaged.” Nico saw Maddie's little smile and thought she could be cruel when she wanted to.“I see… So, shall we go?” Nico didn't speak to Noah and Maddie nodded.Noah remain
“And yet, it's me she wants,” Vince said, calmly. “She loves me and it's me she's going to marry. If you bother us with that again, I'll kill you myself.”Vince hung up the phone and Lina noticed his hands shaking.“Babe?” She asked, placing her hand on his arm. Vince looked at her and hugged her.“Do you think I'm little?”Lina was taken by surprise by that question. How on earth could he think that of himself?“Vince, I don't know what my cousin said, but whatever it was, he's an idiot. You are the best man, and not only that, you are the best man for me. I love you and I am with you. Forever.”Vince hugged her tighter.“I love you so much, Lina,” he loved her to the point of being able to overlook what her father had done. For her. “And I love you. And don't worry. Renzo is not going to be my administrator of anything. The will said that he would be in charge of my things as long as I wanted. And I don't want to,” she lifted her face from Vince's chest and looked into hi
“Try to calm down, everything will be fine!” Maddie said, while finishing Lina's hairstyle. “I'm scared, Maddie. I've never participated in that kind of stuff,” she closed her eyes and exhaled the air from her lungs and looked at her friend, through the mirror reflection. “What if there's some mess?” Maddie stood next to Lina and made her look at her. “Everything will be fine. You and Vince are getting engaged and in two weeks, you'll be married.” “I'm still worried. Vince looked worried. He spent all day yesterday on the phone, shouting here and there. I don't know Italian, but I learned a few words and he was angry.”In the office, Vince was bubbling with rage. “Traitors son of a bitch!” he punched the wooden table. “They betrayed Bartolomeo and wanted to kill Lina! They gave it as a gift to Vastano!” “And what will we do with them?” Nico asked. “They are in power. We have to be able to talk to the Camorra Council.”“Let's
The woman said, taking out her cell phone and starting to record. “I just got kicked out of here for no reason!”She was clearly recording a video. Vince remained impassive.“Kindly leave. I will not put up with your lack of respect toward my fiancée.”As the woman continued to talk nonsense, Vince just flagged down the security guards and turned away.“I'm going to call the police!”Vince didn't even look at the woman, and with Lina in his arms, he continued walking towards the VIP wing.“Vince, that woman is a digital influencer…”“Love, please! She is nobody! And if she was ever someone, from the moment she got involved with you, she ceased to exist.”Vince took out his cell phone and typed something, then put the device away and smiled at Lina.After eating, Lina excused herself and went to the restroom. She hadn't noticed how full her bladder was.Vince was going to tell her that their room had a private restroom, but Lina ran out and he didn't have the opportunity. He was gettin
