Rodrigo's POVMy blatant Stare didn't waver as I waited to hear the name of the woman who made him keep me waiting. "It is no one serious, just some whore I dug around and found in the club"He seems to be lying in the manner that he was blinking his eyes. Who was he with? I became even more inquisitive. I want nothing more than to see him with a woman who will hook his heart. That way rumors about him being a devil will stop spreading around the Cartel. Marcello has been through so much as a child, and I wanted nothing more than for him to be happy."So tell me, is this whore special to you? Does she make your heart flutter?"He chuckled. "There is no such thing as heart flustering, I don't even have a heart and don't believe in something so stupid as love. Why will I fall for a whore, who is meant to be used and dumped? She is nothing but something to be passed around with" He stated firmly, but by the corner of his eyes, I saw the emotions running through his eyes. He was having a
Marcello's POVI looked at Rodrigo. The best that I could have done would have been to admit that she was the woman who had captured my heart and I was going to make her mine, but then again, I wasn't sure what I felt. Deep in my heart, I wanted her, I have never felt that way for any other woman."Speak up Marcello's""I feel nothing for him, there is nothing between us. What could possibly be going on between us?" I was nervous. I have never been nervous over any woman. After what my mother did to my father and me, I was disgusted with women and could only think of them as objects of sexual gratification. I wanted just their body.Perhaps Jennifer was not an exception to this. The first day that I saw her in the club with her, my heart flustered and right there, I decided that I wanted her. That day, it was different, I was consumed by anger and a dark desire to get into her pants and screw so hard that she will never use her beauty to try and seduce any other man. However, she blu
Isabella's POV.I glared at the two guards who were standing like statues watching every move that I made. They were like hawks and that annoyed me. Fury ate up my soul, and Rodrigo has subjected me to some tiny thing. I couldn't eat or breathe. What pissed me off was that I had to Live through all of this by his side as his wife."Are you going to continue Standing there? It is really annoying you know""We are just following order Ma'am""You are out of your minds, both you and your foolish boss Rodrigo"They didn't say anything, they were only surprised that I had thrown an Insult at their boss. I was angry that he ordered that I wasn't allowed to leave the house. How could he give such an outrageous order when all I wanted was to know how my friend Jennifer was doing. He wouldn't let me use the telephone, took away my mobile phone and now he was stopping me from reaching Jennifer. I wanted to see her, she was the only way that I could make contact with Maxwell, it had to be Jenni
Rodrigo's POV"You are out of your mind" she scoffed glaring at me. "You think I am some tramp, I offered to dance for you just like that but you turned down the request, What more do you want?"I was furious that she thought very low of me. I only wanted her to lie down next to me and not for us to have sex. She had a twisted mind, if I wanted Sex I would have gotten it from her and she wouldn't have been able to object, I wouldn't have offered for her to be my wife.I would have done to her what I did the other women, they are been sent to work as whores in my club and sometimes they are offered to my men as slaves or sold to some of our clients. She was the only one who caught my attention yet she was messing up. "Shut your mind if you don't have anything better to say" I was furious at her and she knew that. "You know what just when I think that we are getting somewhere you just have to fuck it up" "Me or you? You are the one who is demanding that I have sex with you""You are n
Jennifer's POVFor Some reason, I was heartbroken hearing all that. That was expected from someone who was part of the Mafia organization and didn't regard women. That was all he saw me as, I was the cheap whore who sold myself so cheap and he saw me naked.I ran my hand through my hair as the conversation that I overheard with Rodrigo echoed through my head. I had no clue that he thought so little of me. For that moment we were making out, I felt something different, I have never given myself to any man like that, yet, I had it all to him without blinking an eye. How can he do all that to me? Shawn was my boyfriend and I know that he is mad at me right now but I am going to get him back, I cannot do without him. He was the best man for me, how could I even be with the Same man who hurt my brother. Lowering my bag on the table, I headed toward the fridge and took out a bottle of wine. That was the only thing that could calm my nerves at least for a while. Opening the wine, I poured
Marcello's POVThis woman seemed to be playing games with me, she had no clue ever since I tasted her, I haven't been able to get her out of my head even for a moment. No other woman can be able to fill the space that she occupies."What?""Break up with your boyfriend or I will help you break up with him and you won't like my way""You are out of your mind if you think that I will ever listen to you" Jennifer was adamant on her words. However, she has not realized that she cannot win over me. There was no way she was going to continue this relationship with Shawn, she was going to break up with him right before my eyes and she knows that."Do you want to bet on that?" I arched up my brow at her. She was scared, a part of her already knew that I was not bluffing but this woman would choose to be stubborn rather than to listen to any word that I said."I have no time for your useless games now leave!""Break up with him in one week or you won't like my style, I am warning You"Anger su
Isabella's POVThe dinner party was fast approaching and everyone In the family got ready Grandmother can be very lenient but she is not the sort of woman who is to be underestimated by anyone.Standing in front of the mirror, I stood in front of the mirror admiring Myself. Truly, I am beautiful, nevertheless, before I can get a chance to admire myself completely, I was stopped by the presence Of Don Rodrigo as he entered the room, leaning against the wall, he gawked at me. The memory of last night flashed through my mind, Don Rodrigo was handsome and any other woman would fall for his looks but I would not, not when I have Maxwell, I was hoping to talk to Jennifer and tell her about him so that I can use her phone to reach him. "You look beautiful"That was a compliment yet I didn't bother saying a word to him as I stared at him through the mirror."That was a compliment" He whispered approaching me, every step he took cast a stranger feeling across my body. It wasn't just fear, a
Marcello's POV"What are you doing here, you fucker?""Language, you should mind what you say especially as the old lady is coming around here tonight""Shut your mouth and leave my room""I wouldn't be here if it wasn't serious""I don't care, I want nothing from you and owe you nothing, Just in case you don't know I hate you the most, and now, I detest you after what you did to Jennifer""You don't have to hate me, you know," I said, trying to soothe her heart. I already knew that she was going to hate me the most. She had a soft spot for Juan Carlos until he pointed his gun at her that day she held her gun at Rodrigo and me."Give me a reason why I shouldn't hate you, You are the one who made my family this way and put me through hell" She blamed me for everything but it wasn't just on me. "Don't blame me, You have to blame yourself for being too beautiful and not me alright"That was the truth, it was her beauty that caught Don's attention. When Don saw her portrait, he didn't bo
Rodrigo’s povI stared into space standing at her doorstep and contemplating if I should just knock or ring the bell and then I finally settled to ring a bell. It was just as I expected when I rang the Bell, Jada opened the door with a smile on her face, with how she smiled widely, I had a feeling she was expecting someone, perhaps, the boy who had been flirting with her. I have been watching them since I lodged in the hotel that was close by, but I decided to stay away just to give Isabella some time before finally coming over to pick up my portrait that she had taken from my study, which was just an excuse for me to see her as well and talk to her. Jennifer told me that she was still confused about this whole Carmen's situation and I had to tell her the truth so that she does not think that I cheated on her because I never did.“ Are you waiting for someone?”“ No one” She shook her head and stepped out of the way for me to get into the house.“ Jada, who is it?” That was Isabella’s
Isabella’s pov“Mother” my eyes crowded with tears as I stared at the woman who had given birth to me, I thought she was sick and wouldn’t be able to get back with us but looking at her right now standing with my father it seemed as though she was already healthy.“ Isabella” she whispered and that was when I realized that she was really alright and nothing was wrong with her and me, my feet moved gently and I quickly ran into her arms and embraced her tightly as though she would disappear if I let her go.“ What happened? How are you alright? the last time that I saw your picture it seemed as though you were never going to make it, and you will never be healed again”“ That young man provided the best doctors for me and I had to go abroad with your father” What young man was she talking about? I was confused. no one told me about this and all the while I would ask for Rodrigo, he would ask me if I wanted to talk to them but I would say no because it would be too much for me to bear.
Isabella’s povRodrigo allowed me to go on a trip to Jada and even though that should be the best time of my life it seems as though it wasn't. Jada was at the beach and I was in the house watching a show that I wasn't really interested in so I kept thinking about him all the time. Picking up his mobile that I had taken from the study, I ran my index finger on his face and smiled, if there was anything about Rodrigo it was the fact that he was the only man who was capable of making me happy, and despite everything that happened between him and carmen I was still very much in love with him even without me admitting it. When the door closed right behind me I realized that Jada was back home, I thought she was going to spend all day at the beach.“ You are back”“ And you have been staring into space again, you know if you miss him so much, all you have to do is just say it out loud and then I'll have him come over here and the both of you can make up then having you staring into space t
Rodrigo’s povIt was late, and by the time Marcello returned home, I had to head back into the room to go be with Isabella, I could not bear to leave her alone even for a moment. She moved out of the room but then I could not let her sleep alone so I slept with her in the same room. hearing footsteps approaching she could tell it was only me and did not bother to look up as I drew closer to the door, she sat on the vanity mirror staring at the reflection of herself.“ What are you thinking?”“ Don't bother me and just go to bed” She was saddened and was in a state of upheaval, I could see that.“How many times do you want me to apologize for what happened? I'm really sorry for everything and wish that I could go back in time, and then I would never have done that. you don't know how bad I feel that you have to be the one who is suffering. I love you, Isabella” She does not say a word and I know that she loves me as well, but then this was not even the right time to make such confessi
Marcello’s povRodrigo was sitting on the stool in the bar sipping his favorite drink when I walked up to him, he was not happy I could tell by how he stared into space. It has been days since Alejandro and his Cartel fell apart, and that woman Carmen was killed. Everything should be back to normal but then it seemed as though it was falling apart and Rodrigo’s marriage to Isabella was slowly crumbling down, I had no clue what to do, and when Jennifer tried to talk to Isabella they ended up arguing. she has not really been herself ever since the attack with Alejandro. he left her traumatized and she had been in shock for some days that she did not eat or talk, but the doctor visited her and Rodrigo made an appointment with the hospital, she needed help and so he gave it to her. but then she was mad at him for having let that woman kiss him and could never forgive him, she saw what she saw but we all know that Rodrigo will never do that to her, he was madly in love with her when she w
Isabella’s povI've never been so furious in my life like the way I am right now. This man wasn't a monster, he was a beast for even admitting that he loved blood.“ You are sick, I swear that something is wrong with you” I quickly kicked him attempting to get away when he grabbed me and ripped apart my shirt. my eyes widened and I was speechless for a moment, but then I knew that if I did not fight him he was going to end up forcing himself on me. He lashed his lips on my neck, kissing me while I struggled pushing, kicking, and scratching, trying to get him away from him, but he was so strong that he wouldn't budge. I wondered what monster was this, I was sure that he was going to leave marks on my fragile body, the wet kiss that he laid on my skin made me so disgusted that I almost puked, but then I knew that I needed to concentrate on him and not get carried away otherwise he will be able to live up to his dream and make me be disgusted with myself.If he ever has his way with me I
Isabella’s pov“No! Please don’t do this” I pleaded with him but then he did not listen and was more concerned about taking me against my will. I have always known right from the first time that I set my eyes on him that he was a monster and capable of anything, but I never expected that he would go this far to try and get to me.“ Open your legs” he ordered and I glared at him even though I was still pleading with him with my eyes.“ I can't”“ You can't or you won't”“ I can't and I won't” I was firm and that made him grab my jaw and squeezed it so hard that I felt the pain right in my head. So many times I whispered Rodrigo’s name in my head hoping that he would come to my aid and save me from the hands of this monster, otherwise I might fall and never be able to get back up again.“ I told you to be nice and I will treat you nicely but it seems as though you don't listen. If you do that to Rodrigo and he tolerates it, don't do it to me, I will Not tolerate such an attitude from y
Isabella’s povI was terrified when he threw me on the bed, but then I knew that I needed to get rid of this fear to focus, damn it was going to get his way with me and that would not be good.“ You got some nerve saying that to my face don't”“ You are the one who wanted to know so I had to tell you the honest truth, did you want me to lie to you? You said I should be honest and that was what I did, why are you making a big deal out of it?”“ I want you, I want to have you right now When he said those words I wished that someone could come in and put a bullet right through him so that he won't try anything stupid.“I already lost everything but I cannot lose you as well. That bastard Rodrigo fought back and now I will have to do to you what I've always wanted. I don't care if I lose everything as long as I have you, I'm okay with that. But what I cannot take is to see Rodrigo with you. The last time that I saw you two together, I almost wanted to kill him, but then it wasn't a close
Isabella’s povIt was the middle of the night when I heard voices coming from the hallway, I was terrified as I grabbed the white sheet and clutched it against my chest, I was so desperate for him to appear immediately and save me from this nightmare, but then my thought was quickly interrupted as the doors were just flung wide and Alejandro stepped into the room, he was Furious. the look in his eyes was frightening and at that moment I was frightened as I saw those darkened pupils. if it was anyone else who had walked into my room, I would have asked them what had happened, but a man like Alejandro was the least of my problems, I know it has something to do with the war he had going on with Rodrigo or the fact that his business must be failing since he was a drug lord in the city of Mexico.“ Do you want to smoke with me or perhaps drink with me?”“ I don't drink and I don't smoke” I was wondering why he was asking me such a silly question when he was aware that I don't engage in dri
