GYPSY'S POVSensations zap across my nerve endings, vibrating through my nipples. I know my nipples are poking through my nightwear, but I'm too embarrassed to look down and yet too aroused to even care.“Gypsy.”A low growl from Enzo. Fuck, just when I thought he couldn't say my name any more sexily.I meet his eyes again as he slowly makes his way towards me, breaching the distance between us.“Gypsy...”“Enzo...” my head is spinning, the sheer arousal I'm feeling making my knees buckle.Enzo's palm touches my cheek, caressing slowly. “You don't know the things I want to do to you.”“Why don't you?” I'm not exactly sure what I'm thinking with right now. My brain or my pussy.The same pussy which clenches as we're still staring at each other, forcing me to press my thighs together to soothe the ache. Enzo's eyes follow my movement.His nostril flare, and his eyes blaze even further. “Fuck.”Within a second he's in front of me. Slipping his left hand behind my head, his mouth descend
ENZO'S POVI watch Gypsy as she walks out of my gym, leaving me rendered with so much desire burning through my veins that I think I might combust from it.Fuck! I curse under my breath as I look down at my dick poking through my shorts, completely dissatisfied. I don't think I've ever been this hard in my life.Walking towards a rack, I grab my towel and wipe the combination of my sweat and Gypsy's cum from face, savouring the taste of her arousal on my tongue.Her pussy was tight, my tongue had felt it. It's obviously been a long time she she slept with anyone.That thought pleases me more than it should.I sigh, knowing I could've easily changed that. It'd taken every ounce of self control in my body not to make love to her once I looked into her eyes as it'd scanned my body and saw the emotion blazing there.Lust. Pure unadulterated lust.But no. I had to control myself.Her ribs haven't healed and I was afraid I would end up hurting her because I've never been known to be tame in
Tension..stunned silence.You could hear a pin drop without even bothering to listen. Enzo's head was reeling, Gypsy's words echoing over and over in his head.Because he raped me. Because he raped me.Anger like Enzo had never felt in a fucking long time, surged through his veins, causing him to bunch his fingers into a fist as images he'd rather do without played in his mind like a horror movie.Gypsy on the floor, screaming, crying for help...Growling, he stepped in front of Gypsy and held her arm, feeling a surge of murderous antagonism for the man who'd dared to touch her without her consent.“Gypsy, who the hell is he?” He asks in a barely controlled outburst.But she didn't look at him. She probably didn't hear him talking. Her face was a mask of weariness, her eyes emotionless. The blue irises looked void as they stared at the floor.“You don't know anything about me.” Her voice was barely above a whisper, tired. “You don't know what I've been through, how I've survived. You s
GYPSY'S POVMrs. Mehra. No. Not Mrs. Mehra. She's a good person. She's innocent. She hasn't done anything wrong.I almost blurt those words out as if Falcon is in front of me to hear them.How? How did that devil even know what was going on? How did he even find out that I was planning to tell Enzo the truth? Is this place bugged? Has he been listening to us this whole time?“Gypsy.” Enzo's baritone pulls me out of my mental turmoil. “Are you okay? What do you mean by you're not who I think you are?”Clicking the power button of my phone I shove it back into my pocket and look up. Taking a deep breath, I'm met with green pools that are filled with curiosity and concern, and I nearly break down again.Yes, I knew Enzo wouldn't forgive me even if I told him the truth, but at least it would've eased the burden of guilt I'm carrying. I was finally gathering the courage to run away.But of course, the devil had to come in and destroy everything.It takes every smidgen of control within
Enzo rested his forehead against hers, sweet, delicious sensations he hadn't felt since Gianna coursing through him like never before. It was intense, strong yet intoxicating. And he was in love with this new feeling. It was like he'd been reborn. It was energizing. For the past two years, anger and hatred was all he'd ever been capable of feeling. He'd drowned himself in work all day long and if he ever happened to have a free time, thoughts of betrayal occupied his brain immediately which was why he'd joined the fighting arena. But now, there was an additional emotion to what he was used to and though it scared the living daylights out of him, he couldn't say he didn't like itStruggling to restrict his growing feelings for Gypsy had actually done the opposite, and now he knew he was falling for this woman.His chest tightened the longer Gypsy stayed silent. He pulled his forehead from hers to look into her eyes, them cradled her face in his palms.“Enzo...” Her eyes brightened,
GYPSY'S POVThe fork I'm using together with the last bite of my food slips from my hand, falling on my plate with a loud clank."Gypsy? What's wrong? Are you okay? Don't you like the food? Gypsy? "I can hear Enzo calling out for me, but I can't bring myself to reply. Air is rushing out of my lungs. I feel suffocated. I feel like I'm going to have a panic attack. I blink.The man I'd once looked at like a father, the man who'd broken my trust and taken my innocence from me, the father of Zeke. Is it really him?"Gypsy hey! Gypsy, look at me! " Strong arms grab me by the shoulders, shaking me violently, and it seems to snap me out of whatever trance I was in."Enzo," I whimper.Memories of that day streak through my mind; the helplessness I felt as I was abused."What happened, princess? Say something. ""Un... Patrick." I clutch my hand on Enzo's, my voice shaking."Patrick,” Enzo frowns. “Who's Uncle Patrick? "I look at Zeke, who's looking back at me with worry. I certainly can't t
AUTHOR'S POVGypsy lay still, very still. Her mind reeled with a combination of so much shock, disappointment, and anger that she didn't even know the core emotion.Gianna.Was that it? All this while, every time they had a passionate moment, was Enzo always thinking of Gianna? Imagining that she was his dead wife? Her heart sinking, she braced her palm against Enzo's chest and tried to nudge him away, her mouth no longer responding to Enzo's.It took him some seconds to register her sudden resistance. With his hand on the sand, he lifted himself off her a bit to look at her face. Her emotions must've been obvious because his brows creased in alarm.“Princess, what's wrong? What happened?”“Get off me, Enzo.” She gritted out, more out of misery than anger.“Hey?” He tried to cup her cheek but she turned her head before his palm could touch her. “What did I do? Gypsy, I thought you were enjoying this as much as I was. What did I do?”“You... You called me Gianna.” Her heart squeezed a
Minutes after Gypsy had walked away, Enzo sat still on the sand. At the same spot where he had committed the stupidest mistake he could've made in that situation.Fuck, he'd said Gianna's name while kissing Gypsy. Why? How?He hadn't even realized he'd said it. It was like his subconsciousness had pushed the name out without his consent. His gut twisted as he remembered the look on Gypsy's face. He'd fucked up. He'd hurt her.Such a horrible end to a day that was supposed to be so perfect."Uncle Enzo. Uncle Enzo!" Zeke's giddy voice boomed through his head before the boy stepped in front of him."I wanna go into the water!""Sure." Enzo told him noncommittally."Okay. Let's go then."It was then Enzo realized the boy probably couldn't swim alone in the ocean, but at that moment, swimming was the last thing on his mind."No Zeke.""Oh please, Uncle Enzo. Let's go! Let's go!" The boy reached for his hand and tried to 'drag' him up.Enzo wanted to snap that he wasn't in the mood but a
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
