CRYSTAL

After my partial emotional break down display, I saw a different new side to Leonardo.

I am seriously still finding it hard to believe that I actually surrendered myself to his embrace. He felt so warm and I felt so little as his huge body enveloped mine in a warm hug.

He was actually being more human and caring which was totally shocking for a man of his attitude.

I expected my lash out to make him reveal why he was being so kind to me but instead it showed me a totally calm and placid side to Leonardo Constanzo.

Several times I would ask myself within me if I were dreaming as Leonardo comforted my tensed nerves.

I know that before whenever I did try to raise my voice at him, it would always end up in a punishment from Leonardo.

But now--today-- he hugged me. He really hugged me like he cared for me.

I struggled to get that off my mind but it stayed filtered through my thoughts.

I engaged in a little têtê-à-têtê with Leonardo afterwards and I actually discovered

    CRYSTAL That tiny ray of hope in a bleak situation can prove to be very fortunate. Watching your world crumble before your very eyes and sacrificing everything including your freedom to see your loved ones happy is probably one of the most painful decisions you can make. Hope they say is a fire in our hearts.It's an anchor that holds us firm. It's a light that shines like the sun if you keep it alive in your heart with the firm belief of a better future ahead. I feel my hope of leaving this mansion renewed and rejuvenate following the talk I had with Leonardo yesterday night and also seeing his now calmer and tranquil side.He was able to tell me a tip of the iceberg concerning his childhood which probably meant he was beginning to feel open with me.Maya did tell me that Leonardo was a very secretive person. One could hardly guess what was going on in that malicious mind of his and he hardly talked about his childhood and parent but yesterday he gave me a glimpse of it.Tha

    CRYSTAL I yawned lazily, pinching my eyes shut and flying it back open once I had been aroused from my deep slumber.My eyes peaked at the open windows that had curtains swaying over them in the rhythm of the cool early morning wind. I stood on my wobbly feet and took tottering steps to one of the windows. The cold wind was ever so soothing on my skin, tenderly caressing it. I strained my neck and noticed the pond some metres away.Wow I never did know I could see the pond from my windows.The sun and the moon were clearly visible in the early morning sky.I watched the palm trees sway to the gentle breeze of the warm sun. The entire landscape was basking in the warm glow of the sun. I exhaled slowly and my minds brought back flashes of I and Leonardo's walk in the beach.Strangely, it was nice. It was not how I had totally thought it would turn out. Leonardo's attitude was evolving these days. He was more calm and less angrier.He never snapped back at me. He always loo

    Crystal felt her eyes widened in amazement, astounded by where Leonardo had brought her too. Surprise washed over her face as she stared jaws ajar at the huge scenery before her eyes.It was an airport. He brought her to a freaking airport.She fed her eyes on the huge aircrafts and her ears twitched to their boisterous noise.Watching some planes take off and some landing, Crystal had her eyes sparkling with excitement. Was he going to show her round the airport?---she thought to herself.Or was he planning on shipping her off to a faraway country like Columbia to be a slave? The surprise that had webbed over her face had now been completely erased by fear which settled in her features.Where was he planning on taking her too?Her eyebrows were pulled up together in sudden panic and fear."L-leonardo w-where are you taking me too?"Crystal asked in apprehension."Relax Bella. You will see"he said cooly and walked out of the limousine, Crystal following suit. Once down from th

    CRYSTAL"What! You did all that just to get a day off from school!?"I asked in high pitch, my brows pulled up in total astonishment at Leonardo's tale. He chortled and gave me a sly smirk. "Ofcourse.""C'mon don't act surprised. You know me and you know my character" he added sharply.I blinked severally, almost laughing. Leonardo was a whole box of weird."You burnt your school books and began smoking in class so as to get suspended! That's insane"I screeched.Leonardo laughed it off. "I'm insane baby girl. I know""Now tell me" he requested, pouring himself another glass of whiskey. "Did you engage in any sort of mischief while you were in high school?"I shook my head, pouting my lips a little. My eyes locked with his and I almost giggled at his quirky look."I was an obedient student. Teachers pet you might even say" I chirped."Unlike some people I know that almost made their teachers run mad"I taunted Leonardo. He ruffled up my hair which made me jerk in my seat."Leonardo

    CRYSTAL "Wakeup Crystal"My body was being tapped on mildly, a husky voice echoing in my ear.I yawned lazily with my eyes slowly fluttering open from the abyss of darkness I had fallen into."We've landed"Leonardo announced huskily. At once I sat up straight, smiles beaming all over my face."Are you serious!?" I almost screamed as excitement bubbled within me.He nodded and combed my slightly ruffled hair with his large hands."Now I can finally know where you are taking me to" I chirped in high spirits. Leonardo sniggered and stood up, stretching out his hand for me to grasp.I held on to it and he helped me to my feet. I felt his hand slightly interlock with mine causing my skin to tingle.Oh good Lord. What is this man doing to me? Am I suppose to feel this way? I suddenly began feeling self conscious as Leonardo walked me out of his jet.My mind raced back to when I was asleep.Oh my God. I hope I wasn't drooling or snoring or worse talking in my sleep. Back when whe

    CRYSTAL Sunlight creeped through the curtains of my room causing me to flutter my eyes open. I rolled over to the other side of the bed and stretched my body lazily before sitting up on the bed. I placed my rickety feet on the ground, flinching at the contact of the cold tiles on my feet. My legs wandered to the window as I gazed out of it.Wow!The view is amazing. I could see the bustle from the road; the honking of cars, chattering from the crowd whilst everybody engaged in their daily business. I also had a clear view of the hotel and I noticed a spell binding swimming pool.I still couldn't believe I was really in Italy.Leonardo had outdone himself in this one. Speaking of Leonardo, I hadn't seen him since yesterday night. The man just brought me into this penthouse and dashed out in a flash. I thought he would come back before dinner but he didn't. I truly hope he didn't abandon me in Italy.Well it wasn't something he couldn't do. My eyes then wandered to the di

    CRYSTAL Basking in the warmth of the sun, I and Leonardo walked down the cobble streets of Rome. Everything felt so surreal for me. After a sumptuous breakfast, Leonardo didn't waste no time in taking me out on our tour in rome. He had wanted to take one of his cars but I insisted we walked. That way we would enjoy the tour more and get that Italian experience. The garrulous voices of people; both men, women and young people filled the air. Laughing and chatter soared, young children playing around and teenagers engaging in their têtê-à-têtê. The street we were in was filled with old Italian apartments that had rugged draping down from the windows.I had a beam on my face as I watched everything but then I realised I had no camera to actually capture the moment."What's wrong Crystal?"Leonardo asked as if noticing my disappointed inner state."Nothing"I replied putting up a smile.He shook his head at me. "I can read you like a book. Spill"he ordered. Even when he was nic

    CRYSTAL "Wakey wakey sleepy head" I heard a husky male voice call out to me, his rich tone reverberate in my head.I yawned slowly as my eyes gradually fluttered open.Looming by the doorway to my room stood Leonardo, a smirk on his face. He wore a white shirt that hugged his chiselled body, showing off his muscles.He leaned against the door, eyes watching me like how a predator would watch its prey.How long had he been standing there? And why was the door to the room opened?"What the hell are you doing standing by my door?"I asked sitting up and straightening my spine. Leonardo gave a low groan and walked inside my room."I didn't say you could come in?""I didn't ask"came his tongue tying reply.I threw a pillow at him which he dodged before sticking his hands into the pocket of his pants."Leonardo were you watching me sleeping? How long have you been standing there?"I queried with a frown.I suddenly felt he was stalking me."Well I was passing by and saw how placid y

    Epilogue3 years Later"Leonardo. Oh my God. Harder please" Crystal moaned as Leonardo's grip on her hair became tighter, his thrusts from behind increasing rapidly in pace inside her. Leonardo groaned deeply as he rocked her insides, riding her ferociously whilst his free hand was placed on the arch of her back, making Crystal's ass stick out further."Fucking. Sweet. Shit."Leonardo moaned lowly. He was very close to his orgasm. He groaned breathlessly, thrusting faster and faster, going in deeper with each thrust. Crystal bit her bottom lip in painful pleasure trying so hard not to pass out as a result of the manner in which he was pounding into her. The orgasmic sensation resurfaced in her. She could feel her legs shaking in ecstasy. Her legs and stomach spasmed. She couldn't take it any more as Leonardo carried on going so rough, quick and hard in his thrusts into her. "Leonardo!"Crystal screamed in a loud moan, climaxing and releasing herself so intensely.He still kept

    Her partially numb fingers subconsciously tried moving around the satin white sheets of the hospital bed but every movement proved abortive and was barred by a severe pain that flowed through the young woman's battered up body. The state of being dead isn't suppose to be painful is it?Death comes with absolute numbness to everything and every one around you. It is a peaceful darkness that embraces you. It pulls you into its forever dark abyss and shuts down all your senses. It makes you forget both your pain and your happiness. But she could remember everything---the horrifying murder scene she stumbled upon, her eagerness to escape and the dangerous over speeding, the hot chase of Leonardo and his men as they tried to stop her from escaping and lastly the bloody crash of her Mercedes through the banister of the bridge. It was a vociferous crash that sparked a million pain cells within her. Crystal was completely immersed into darkness following that horrific accident.She

    CRYSTAL I felt sick in my stomach. My stomach churned and I almost gagged. Standing right in front of me was Leonardo and about three other men of equal muscularity. But that wasn't what got my attention. Strapped to a chair with heavy amount of blood tainting his shirt was a man. He was bleeding profusely, screaming for help and I happened to walk in on them the moment Leonardo snapped his neck broken. I held on to the door frame to keep myself from actually collapsing on to the ground.What the hell did I just witness? The air had this stench of blood and death in it. Leonardo did not notice my arrival at first due to the adrenaline rushing through him, vexation and rage eagerly dancing within his eyes until I whimpered and gasped in horror and shock. Only then did his blue eyes trailed up to look at my trepadised form. I could tell his jaws dropped on seeing me. Blood was smeared over his shirt, along with his arms and some splattered on his face. "What..... are you do

    CRYSTAL I yawned lazily with my eyes slowly peeling open the next morning. My hands stretched to feel the warmth of the body I had given myself to last night but the sheets were cold. My eyes immedately flew open in an instant. Leonardo wasn't on bed with me any more.His masculine scent was still lingering on my bed. The sun was very well high in the sky, it's bright rays shining down at me through gaps in my curtains. I sat up straight, my mind reminiscing about what took place last night between I and Leonardo.A subconscious smile walked its way to my lips. I had given myself to Leonardo last night. We made sweet, slow love and I loved it. I loved every bit of it. I looked down on my bedsheets. I could spot signs of blood on it---reminding me of my once virgin state. Leonardo had been so gentle with me last night. It was a moment of weakness. He looked dangerously sinful too. From his dishevelled messy hair to his unbuttoned shirt and to his soft blue eyes--he li

    Leonardo's tongue greedily explored her mouth, tasting every corner with such a lustful vigour. The kiss took her breath away-- swayed her off her feet and caused a fervently burning sensation to soar within her. It felt so long since they got to taste each others lip. The kiss sparked a million butterflies fluttering in her core. Her petite arms wrapped around Leonardos broad shoulder, tangling with his messy dark hair. She ran her hands through it and yanked a fistful of it."You are hurt"Leonardo raspily reminded her pulling back and panting. Pure, searing hot lust danced in his eyes. Crystal could see the desire, lust, need and want for her in his blue orbs. Most importantly, she could decipher concern in them too. It was clear as crystal."I'll be fine"Crystal reassured him.That was the only confirmation he needed to go on. His carouse hands trailed from her cheeks down to her neck and it slipped past her bandages. Crystal felt her toes curling up in delight. Her hands

    The days rolled by like a blur in the Mansion. It had been weeks since Leonardo had put back his cold hearted, vile mask towards Crystal. Their relationship was now very strained. Leonardo seldomly was around and he when he was around, he avoided and ignored Crystal like a deadly plague.It all still felt like a bad dream to Crystal. A very bad dream she wished to wake up from. The sudden change in Leonardo's attitude was alarming. It shook Crystal to the core, smashing to smithereens any hope she had of actually having a future with Leonardo. He became more cold to her than he was when she first arrived in the mansion.Atleast then Leonardo would occasionally demand for her presence in the dinning room and he would always want to keep his steady gaze on her. But reverse was the case now. He hardly even looked her way talk more of calling her to eat with him.Though they lived together, they had become strangers to each other. Whenever Leonardo and her would bump by in the hal

    CRYSTALI sat on a stool with Maya in the kitchen, helping her in preparation for dinner. It's been a week since I got my almost fatal gun shot wound. Some times I couldn't help myself but think of what would have become of my fate if I wasn't rushed to the hospital on time.I could have been six feets below the ground by now. My shoulder still felt sore. It all felt like a dream to me but the bandages on my chest served as a reminder for my almost near death experience.But one question that still got me bothered was who shot me?And why?Could it be related to Leonardo's mafia or something else? I had no enemies if I could vividly remember. Hell I was too broke to make enemies.My whole life revolved around fending for I and Mabel until Leonardo's arrival into my life. Leonardo had suddenly vanished into thin air. It hurt me deeply whenever I thought of him.I mean the dude said he loved me! Who does this to someone they claimed to love?!

    LEONARDO "In the past four months" I began, leaning back into my chair and puffing out cigarette smokes into the air. "Our drugs have always had a hard time in passing through Ecuador and Panama which borders Columbia" I studied the facial expression of Stefano harden, his fists clenching as it encircled the glass of water placed before him. Stefano oversaw the distribution of our drugs through the boarders of Ecuador to Columbia and also from Paraguay to Argentina."Look Stefano, I got word that the drugs had been recovered"I told him."Well thanks to me"I conceitedly added. "But I always encounter difficulties when those fucking drugs are being sent through the boarders of Ecuador and Columbia and I find it so surprising since I have high classed politicians in my pay roll and I pay those bitches sitting in the embassy and boarder" I grimaced at Stefano. I watched his mind raced far, probably thinking of an explanation to defend himself. "W-well y-you can't blame me. The c

Once it's makes its ugly head known, it sweeps every thing good away like a vicious storm and twist them against you.It makes you beg. It makes you crumble. It makes you numb and void. Her eyes slowly opened to a golden glow spread across the dark room, illuminating it fairly. Although her eyesight was weak, her ears could hear distant crackling of fire. The fireglow danced by the side of her vision. This clearly wasn't her room.She didn't have her fireplace built in her room.It then dawned her that she was in Leonardo's room. Her head spinned as she tried to decipher what had happened to her.Like a comet, the memories hit her.She was shot.Crystal had been falling in and out of consciousness.
