And she waited. For hours on end. The best part was that no one opened the door for her, but they didn't kick her out either.“You bastards!” she complained, kicking the wind. “Lina, you better be dead, or I'll kill you myself!”Then she regretted what she said and hit the wood on the porch floor three times.Maddie, who was exhausted, ended up forgetting that she had left her books in the classroom.‘That’s just great!’ she thought. ‘They will steal my things, for sure. Okay, that’s one hell of luck!’ She huffed and leaned against one of the house's outer pillars, near the door.She woke up to something poking her thigh. Maddie opened her eyes and came face to face with a huge dog, which was sniffing at her. The day was getting dark, which meant she was outside for many hours. She tried to move and her whole body hurt.Maddie whimpered. The dog remained at the same spot, and she raised her hand for him to sniff it, before being able to stroke the animal's head.“All I needed was to g
She began to wonder, and even speaking was difficult.Lina remembered leaving college and a black car stopped. She thought it was Vince, but only until she looked closely at the car and saw that it was another model. Then, a man rolled down the window and asked her for some kind of information... Then, everything went black.“Hello, little princess,” a male voice that was not very pleasant to her ears spoke, making Lina realize that not only was she not at home, but also that she was not alone.“Who... Who are you?” she asked, still stunned. Her vision was very blurred and everything was spinning.“I'm your new little friend. For now,” he replied, and Lina heard footsteps approaching. “You and I will have a little talk.”Lina didn't like his tone, and something told her that he didn't exactly want to talk, but rather to extract information from her. And it wouldn't just be through the questioning method.“What do you w-want? I want to leave...”“Well... It's very easy. I want to know
Lina felt her hair being pulled from behind, causing her face to turn upwards. The overhead light was blinding her, so she couldn't see the man who ordered her to be lifted. Lina tried to open her eyes, and when she did, her vision was still blurred. She felt the hand in her hair loosen and slowly let go.“It's not...” she heard. She was finally able to see. The man in front of her had short, dark hair, older but not too old, and handsome features. The lips were not too thin, and the nose was straight. He looked perplexed. When Lina looked into his eyes, it was like looking into a mirror.Finding someone with blue or green eyes wasn't that difficult, but not with Lina's tone. It was a mixture and, incredibly, that man had the exact same shade of bluish green.Amazed, he released her completely, his brow furrowed and his mouth open.“What's her name, again?” he asked, without taking his eyes off Lina, who felt offended, in a way. The man had ordered her to be kidnapped, and he didn't e
Someone came in and placed something heavy and metallic on top of the white dresser she had seen before, next to the dark, carved wooden door. Shortly after, the door closed, and she swore she heard a ‘click’. That meant she had been locked inside.Lina was ready to sit down again, but the door opened again.Steps. The bed dipped a little at the edge. She was terrified that someone would climb into bed with her, but no. Apparently, the person sat there.“Guendalina?” a man spoke. “I know you’re not sleeping.” She wasn't sure if she knew that person, as the voice didn't seem completely strange to her.Lina thought it was better not to pretend. These people were powerful and dangerous, and she wasn't interested in taking another beating.Lina sat down and, when she looked at the visitor, she saw that he was the same man as before. The one who had pulled her hair. The one with eyes like hers.“Who are you?” she asked, almost in a whisper. “What do you still want from me?” She was tearful
That was the first time that Lina said openly and clearly that she loved Vince, apart from when declared herself to the man himself. No, she wasn't in love. She loved him.Bartolomeo's face turned red. He looked like he was going to have a stroke at any moment. Lina didn't lower her head.“You... You...” Bartolomeo stammered. “Did you let him deflower you?”Bartolomeo knew very well how things could be. He, when he was with Maryam, had the happiest moments of his life. Very intense. From what he knew about Vincenzo Bonaccorso, the man was a sex machine. Women went crazy with him. And Guendalina had been the only one to visit his house, lately. The only one to sleep with him and return the next day, and the next, and the next.“I let him do whatever he wanted with me,” she said, defiantly.Bartolomeo had not lived with his daughter but just knowing that she was his daughter and who the man she had been involved with was, he could imagine all the naughty things she had done and that was
“Sure as fuck I will! I don't know what the hell they're going to do with Lina, now that Maddie is there,” Vince said, nervously, feeling his hands shaking.“Weird place to bring the girls. This place is pretty fancy for a captivity,” Nico's comment was pertinent.“Well, when we break into this shit, we'll know how fancy that fucked up place is,” Nico could hear his boss's anxiety.Inside the building, Maddie was taken upstairs. She realized that the place was luxurious and that it didn't exactly look like the prison she expected to find Lina in. It looked more like a castle than a dungeon.“This way, signorina,” the handsome man said. He looked at Maddie with interest. “Tell me something, Maddie, do you have a boyfriend?”Maddie was shocked by the nerve of the guy. Was he being serious?“Ah ... No.” She replied awkwardly. “But that's none of your business now, is it?” She closed her fist next to her own body. How could that man dare to ask something like that when he had kidnapped he
Raffaele had been following Maddie and Lina for weeks. He thought the chestnut was beautiful and became interested in her. And by the time he was assigned the task, Nico had already blocked Maddie's number. Every day that Raffaele followed her, he thought more and more about her, waiting for the opportunity to talk to Maddie. But he knew that wasn't possible. Raffaele traveled to Las Vegas in order to solve some problems and, when he returned, he learned that Lina had been captured and tortured. In the end, she was Bartolomeo's daughter.The last news was good, after all, it made things more possible for him to get closer to Maddie! Besides, poor Lina wouldn’t suffer anymore.He knew very well who Nicola Rizzi was. The right-hand man of Vincenzo Bonnaccorso, the man who held two positions at the same time within the mafia: Sottocapo and Consigliere. This was an extremely rare feat.“He's not old!” Maddie defended Nico.‘Yes, yes... If I'm not mistaken, he's already over thirty! For yo
“Me too. And Lina... Vince was worried about you. They are looking for you.”Lina turned to Maddie.“I bet this is nothing more than his sense of honor. He does not want me. He made it very clear with loud words. I told you that,” Lina let out a sigh. “But he thinks he’s ‘the honorable one’.”“I know. And I also know that you love him.”Lina lowered her head.“I'm so stupid. He doesn't love me and he never will,” she said and looked at Maddie, her eyes full of sadness. “And it doesn't matter, you know? He himself said that they only marry Italian women. Good for him who doesn't love me.” Lina shrugged, looking down.Raffaele was listening to the conversation. It's not like he can help it. When Lina said that Bonaccorso didn't want her, he thought the man was crazy. He may have been enchanted by Maddie, but he wasn't blind. Lina was beautiful and cultured. She wasn't one of those women who are found in droves out there. Okay, she wasn't Italian. But, actually... She was, even if mixed
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
