GYPSY'S POV

My heart is beating so hard against my ribcage that I'm afraid it'll burst out any moment from now.

I'd been so close. So fucking close to leading Enzo outside and telling him the whole truth about who I truly am.

If only someone hadn't rang the doorbell. Speaking of which, it's been about ten minutes since Enzo stepped outside, and my courage is slowly fizzling out.

I jump in my seat when the door clicks open. Enzo enters, his eyes pinned on me as he closes the door and walks towards me.

There's no warmth on his face unlike earlier, causing ice-cold fear to run through my veins. Why does he look so off? Like he's trying hard to control his emotions.

“You said you had something to tell me?” He asks, his voice cool. Way too cool. And he doesn't even bother to sit down first.

“Uh...yes, I...” I lick my lips nervously.

Should I tell him?

He doesn't look like he's in a good mood. Whoever came to ring the bell obviously pissed him off. Maybe I should wait till he has calmed dow

    “How could I have been such an imbecile? How the fuck couldn't I see through her fakeness? She was lying to my face all this time and I adored her like an idiot.”Dante watched without a word as Enzo rambled on, sitting across the table from him in the bar where Enzo had made him come to drown his sorrows.Enzo brought his bottle of beer to his lips and took four long gulps all at once. Dante winced, knowing gulping that much mustn't have been easy.Or maybe Enzo was in too much pain to actually feel the sting.It'd been a long time since Dante had seen his best friend like this; so messed up, so broken. Three years to be exact.If Gianna's betrayal had broken him so much, Dante could only imagine how this second betrayal was making him feel. All thanks to that cursed Gypsy.After polishing off his beer, Enzo set it back on the table and turned his head to the bar.“Hey, you.” He yelled at one of the bartenders. “Another beer.”Dante cursed under his breath and sighed. “Dude, you've h

    GYPSY'S POVA loud groan stirs me awake, making me realize that I finally did fall asleep after spending several restless hours in the couch in Enzo's room.Yawning, I blink my eyes open to find Enzo getting into a sitting position on his bed. He stiffens when he sees me and then glares at me, but obviously his headache is stronger than his need to glare at me because he lets out another groan while holding his head.I quickly rush to his side. “Enzo, are you...”He slaps my hand away when I attempt to touch him. I step back with a sigh and watch as he gets up to his feet. He stumbles a bit but finally manages to study himself enough to rush into the bathroom. Seconds, later, I hear retching sounds.He's obviously having a hangover. He must have drank a whole lot last night.Rummaging through his bedside drawers, I thankfully find an Advil. After going to get some water from the kitchen, I make my way back into the bedroom.Enzo is still puking into the toilet bowl when I step into th

I am your mother!” Linda yells, thrashing her body violently as she is dragged away by two police officers.A tear slips from my eyes as I watch her being taken away. I wish things had been different. I wish my mother had loved and supported me from the very start. My life would've been so different.But this is for the best. After five years, I'm finally getting justice for what Patrick did to me. Maybe the time in jail will make Linda reflect on what a shitty mother she was.“We did it, Gypsy! We did it. Congratulations.” Saenz voice draws me from my thoughts.Wiping the tears away, I allow the first trickle of excitement to seep through me. “Yes, we did! Thank you so much.” I pull Saenz into a hug to show my appreciation.I did it. I won. Patrick can't take my son away from me any longer.

    GYPSY'S POVGrabbing the rest of my dresses from the closet, I stuff them in my suitcase which is on the bed. My chest is heavy, as if a thousand weights are pressing on it, making breathing a not-so-easy task.I've just returned from spending the whole day with my son at Mrs. Mehra's house. The only reason I didn't bring him back is because Mrs. Mehra thinks Enzo and me are still in the honeymoon phase and wouldn't allow it.I smile, recalling how annoyed Zeke got when I kept being all affectionate with him, being all touchy and kissy. He's used to me being affectionate but I guess I confused him today because I did it too much. If only he knew that he was almost taken away from me.And when he kissed me on the forehead, looked me in the eyes, and told me that he loved me very much, I nearly broke down in front of him. And now I'm more sure than ever that I will die if anything happens to him.That's why I've come to a decision: I'm going to disappear with my son.Falcon doesn't kn

    GYPSY'S POVSeveral seconds after our wild romp, my breath starts evening out though my lungs still feel a bit choppy. Despite how sated I am, I can't help the fear that streaks through my veins every other second.The fear that Enzo is going to get off me any moment from now and tell me to get the hell out of his apartment, that he'd only wanted to fuck me one last time.But that doesn't happen. Instead, Enzo wraps his arms around me and turns us on the bed so that I'm now on top of him. He doesn't pull his semi-erect dick out of me, leaving our bodies connected.I place my head on his chest, the sound of his rapidly beating heart soothing my anxiety.“What changed?” I raise my head to look at his face, finally asking the question on my mind.“I spoke to Dante.” Enzo answers. “He explained everything to me.”I nod even though I'm a bit surprised. “He's a good person.” I say.“I'm sorry, princess.” Enzo begins to say. “I'm so fucking sorry for being so unfair to you and not giving you

    “Ladies and Gentlemen, I assure you that this crisis we're experiencing is only temporary and is going to disappear as quickly as it appeared. Please excuse me. This meeting is over.”Enzo gave a curt nod to the board members before walking out of the board meeting room, letting out an exhausted sigh as he stepped outside. He hated these kinds of meetings. Even though he was the majority share holder with 80% shares, he still had to explain things and give assurance to other members of the board and investors.But of course he couldn't tell them that he knew the real cause of the crisis they were experiencing.They would want to take action, and he knew that there was no way they'll understand Gypsy and why she had to do it.Speaking of whom, he was missing her like hell. Leaving her side a few hours ago for this board meeting had been a hellish decision to make. He'd almost cancelled at the last minute until Gypsy had told him to go ahead.He couldn't wait to get back to her side. N

You have too much of a good heart.”I glare hard at the man I hate more than anything else in the world as his guards drag me into his study room.Falcon has his disgusting cynical smile on his face, and all I want to do is wipe it away with my fist by slamming it against his mouth.Oh God I hate him.“Knees, Gypsy. On your knees.” He commands, walking towards me.I only glare back at him. No way I'm going back to worshipping him like some dog.He takes me by surprise by slamming the back of his hand against my face, tossing my head violently to the side. “I said on your knees, Gypsy. Don't make me repeat myself.” The smile stays intact on his face despite the warning in his voice.I slowly look back at him, my cheek burning, my whole body burning with a useless rage. Conceding, I drop down to my knees in front of him just the way he wants it.I'll gladly do it, if only to make him let Mrs. Mehra leave.“You didn't have to brin

    It's been two days. Two fucking days since Falcon took Gypsy. Two fucking days of lying to Purab and Zeke that their mothers were okay. Two fucking days of living with an anguish I never imagined I could feel. And still no phone call from Falcon or anything.I'm trying to listen to Dante and stick to the plan but it's becoming harder to hold myself back from storming into Falcon's Casino and getting myself killed.Especially when it's more than obvious that he isn't keeping Gypsy at that Casino.I feel my phone chime with a notification. Lightening up the screen, I see that I've been sent a picture by an unknown number.Once I unlock my phone, every cell in my body tenses up as I look at the picture sent to me by the unknown number.It's a picture of Gypsy chained in a chair, blood sliding down her chin.“What is it, Enzo?” Dante springs up from the couch to whip the phone out of my hand.“Fuck!” He stares at the picture with anger burning in his eyes.“I'm going to kill him.

    A lump of nervousness rose up Gypsy's throat as she took in the betrayal burning in David's eyes. She swallowed it down, wondering what was going through his head.“Enzo was here.” She finally answered.David shook his head, his nostrils flaring. “And you let him stay? You even let him okay with Dawn!”“He showed up unexpected very early in the morning and he wouldn't leave. And Dawn was so happy with him I had no choice but to let him stay for a while." Gypsy explained, hoping he would understand.“For a while, huh?” David scoffed. “How long was he here for? Was that why you refused to pick my calls?”“No! Of course not.” Gypsy answered, getting desperate by the second. “I genuinely didn't even hear my phone ringing, I swear.”David barely nodded, suspicion holding his usually bright eyes. “And when did he leave.”“A few minutes ago.” An incredulous look took over David's expression. “He came here early in the morning and he just left a few minutes ago? You let him stay for hours, G

    Enzo stared into the blue coldness of Gypsy's eyes, his heart thumping inside his chest. After what felt like forever but was merely seconds, the dark look in her eyes began to lighten. Nothing too bright, but it rescued his racing heart and filled his chest with a warm assurance that her resistance was gone or on the way to being annihilated.She didn't say anything as she looked away from him to carry the sauce pan off the stove, but her silence told him that she was willing to try, which was a win for him, especially when she looked at him and asked,“Will you join us for breakfast?”A thrill went through him, and Enzo had to remind his body not to react so foolishly. She was only doing this for their daughter's sake.Why else would she do it? A voice in his voice taunted. Enzo grimaced.Breakfast was awkward to say the least, mostly because while Enzo and their daughter conversed a lot, Gypsy only spoke when their daughter tried to involve her in the conversation which wasn't ver

    Gypsy spent most of the night tossing in bed, her mind occupied with thoughts of Enzo and his determination to be part of her daughter's life. Just when she began to feel the arms of sleep around her, the incessant ringing of her doorbell drew her out of it sharply.Gypsy grimaced and remained firmly on her bed. Today was a Saturday which meant she didn't have to get up to get Dawn prepared for school so she was planning on sleeping in to make up for the hours of sleep she had lost. Whoever was ringing her bell at this ungodly hour? Maybe if she didn't respond, the person would get tired and leave.She closed her eyes, hoping the ringing would stop but if anything, it became more jarring.“Fuck!” Gypsy cursed, tossing the sheets off her body as she sat up in her bed.Looking at the time on her alarm, her eyes widened immediately when she saw the time. 6:34Am. Damn, she'd really wasted the night without catching a wink of sleep.The realization made her feel even more grouchy as she s

    It felt like the whole world had gone into a coma but for them as Enzo slowly made his way towards Gypsy. Her pulse was racing, panic snapping through her veins like electricity through a high voltage wire.Enzo stopped in front of her. The coldness and the fury in his eyes seemed to snap Gypsy right into the realization that this was really reality and not just her imagination.Turning to look at David, she looked down at her daughter. "Darling, go with Uncle David into the car."Her daughter's eyes widened immediately in horror. "But mummy, daddy...""I said go with David, Dawn!" Gypsy snapped much more harshly than she'd intended to.She winced internally, instantly regretting her tone of voice when her daughter flinched. Gypsy had never spoken to her like that before. The little girl began crying as David carried her to the car while trying to soothe her."You shouldn't talk to her like that." The sound of Enzo's voice irked her greatly, and Gypsy spun around to face him. "You do

    "You have a daughter." Enzo repeated, his eyes moving from Gypsy to Elice.Gypsy felt like her heart was going to fly out of her chest with how hard it was beating, and out of a pure reflex action, she grabbed the hand of her daughter and stepped out of the doorway, slamming the door shut.She leaned her back against the door, placing her hand on her chest as she tried to calm her racing heart. No! It couldn't be. She couldn't let Enzo know that he had a daughter."Are you okay, mummy?" Elice asked, her brows wrinkled in confusion. "Who is that man?""He's... He's..." The words stuck in her throat.What was she supposed to say? She definitely couldn't tell her daughter that Enzo was her father. Elice would otherwise insist on bringing Enzo into their lives."He's no one, sweety. He's no one." She pulled her daughter closer to her and hugged her, her breathing still coming out heavily.She half expected Enzo to bang on the door for her to open up, but nothing came. He'd obviously left.

    The first thing Gypsy did after dropping her daughter off at school was to drive to David's company. She hadn't heard from him since he dropped her off at her house last night. Not that she expected him to call after she'd told him she needed some space last night.Luckily for her, she arrived at his office just in time because David was about to step out of his office when Gypsy got out of the elevator. He froze, his eyes widening with surprise as he stared at her.“Gypsy.” He said her name.“David.” She responded, stepping closer to him. “Why do you look so surprised to see me?”“You told me you needed some space last night and...” He trailed off, shaking his head.Gypsy winced internally. Had she been rude when she'd told him she wanted to be alone? Last night, her mind had been too disconcerted for her to really think about the things she'd said. Perhaps she'd said something that offended him.“Can we talk?” She asked, glancing over at David's secretary who was shooting daggers at

    “Where's he?” Gianna Russo questioned the guard standing by the door.“He's in the pool, ma'am." the guard answered immediately, but stepped closer to Gianna, almost blocking her path. “But...”“But what?” Gianna demanded, tipping her head to the side.“Nothing, ma'am. Please go ahead.” The guard backed away, returning to his position.“Good." Gianna said with a satisfied smile as she turned and made her way towards the backyard where the pool was located.She came right to a halt. The man she was after was lounging by the pool, but he wasn't alone. He was with two women who were taking turns sucking his dick.Annoyance coursing through her, she stormed towards the trio. The man had his eyes close in pleasure so he didn't even notice her. On reach them, she grabbed the hairs of both women and wrenched them away from her man.“What the fuck?” Both of the women screamed as Gianna threw them to the floor.“Get the fuck out of here?" Gianna growled, glaring at the women.There must've be

    “Gypsy.” Enzo whispered her name huskily.A jolt went up Gypsy's spine at the voice she hadn't heard in six years. And just like that, all the emotions came crashing back.“Oh, you two know each other already.” David chuckled awkwardly, turning his questioning gaze to her. “How do you know him?”But Gypsy wasn't listening; she barely even heard him. Her gaze was pinned on Enzo as the rush of emotions rolled through her.He didn't look very different from when she last saw him except for the slightly dark bags under his eyes. Yet that didn't mellow how handsome he looked in any way. His piercing green eyes that she could remember so well took her in with an equal amount of shock.Gypsy had always imagined what her reaction would be like if she had him in front of her again. Always it'd been indifference. But right now, the calvacade of emotions running through her was too turbulent for her to act indifferent.This was the same man who'd thought her what love was, who'd made her believe
