Hopping on, Lily places the strawberry bowl in front of Maria and she wastes no time in devouring it. She had no idea the Lily had caught up upon the fact Maria is pregnant. After all, Lily has two children of her own. Looking at the time, Maria saw it was already one in the afternoon. She had an ultrasound check-up at three o'clock. Finishing the bowl of strawberries she left the kitchen finding where her husband was Alesso had told her that they would be in the west wing. The closer she got she started to hear faint shouts coming from the office. This office was usually used for Mafia reasons.Pondering about where the scouts were coming from, she strode towards that direction. Maria recognised the voices, noting it was Vincent and Alesso having a heated discussion about something.She didn't want to invade their talk but also knowing they have an appointment, she didn't want to get late she just stood outside the door, debating whether to go inside or not."You couldn't lock it or
"We can talk about this later." He walked her out of the room trying not to keep her in the same area."No, tell me!" She said sternly. Alesso knew he had to tell her otherwise she will overthink this which will lead to stress and he didn't want that to happen. Letting out a sigh he placed a kiss on her forehead. "It was a suicide," "No, it's not possible." She said but it was the truth. Alesso pressed his lips in a thin line not knowing how to explain it to her."Maria...""Just tell me." She pleaded. "Please."Debating whether or not to tell he lets out a loud sigh, knowing lying won't get him anywhere."He was working for the Russian Mafia." Maria's eyes widened at it, lips parted not knowing what to speak."What?" It was barely a whisper as she absorbed the news. Alesso nodded and gave her some time to process it."We found out about it a few hours before the death. He was the one who gave access to Aron that night when he attacked you." He explained trying to keep calm as wo
Maria.Trust.Trust is one of the things I have lost with others. All these years of my life have brought nothing but trust issues and if tomorrow someone told me to trust them, I simply won't be able to. After what Alesso explained to me about how Taylor worked for the Russian Mafia, it brought goosebumps on my skin. To be honest I was terrified of how many people I know could be working undercover.I shared many secrets with Taylor back in the days, he knew where I was, what I was doing, or when and where I snuck out with Jo after bedtime. It just made me a questiorn, he had so many opportunities to kidnap me or kill me but never did I feel a bit uncomfortable or threatened with him. What made him stop? Maybe he was just waiting for the orders.Me and Alesso had to postpone our appointment by a few hours because of what happened. I was not in a state or mindset to go to the ultrasound, so we hung out with the rest of the family. I have a feeling mum and Georgia have gone a bit crazy
I hope it is fine.I kept looking between the screen and the doctor to understand if everything was ok. My grip on Alesso's hand tightened in anticipation. He pecked my forehead making me lock my eyes with him and he gave me a reassuring smile but it was not the same. He still seems angry.But it relaxed me a bit by knowing he was comfortable now than he was before. My eyes found the doctor who was looking at the screen with a smile, bringing out a smile of my own and letting go of the breath I hadn't realised I was holding."Everything looks good," she said keeping her eyes on the screen. "The uterus is now healed, so is the tissue lining. The baby's growth looks healthy, having a stable heartbeat and positioning."I looked at Alesso with a smile beaming on my face knowing our baby is doing good. He looked so happy, not removing his eyes off the screen."I am surprised to see this much progress in such a short period. You are quite healthy for that, it is seen you are keeping up with
Sexual content.MariaI could hear my heartbeat in my ears. Knowing only one thing I was asked to do, I didn't comply with it, so I didn't utter a word. I let out a loud gasp when Alesso pinched one of my nipples harshly making me arch my back in pleasure."Don't enjoy this too much Maria, I am going to make you remember this moment every time you even think about other people sexually," He said raspily and sucked on my neck making sure he leaves a mark.I moaned fisting his shirt, feeling his muscled chest. My lips parted as his hands trailed down to my pants. My hands moved up to his hair, tugging it. He let out a throaty groan.With no time he yanks my pants and panties. I gasp in surprise when cool air hit me. I tried to clench my thighs but he replaced the space with his knee, rubbing it on my clit. I whined when he stopped me from rolling my hips on his knee. He let out a humourless chuckle making me narrow my eyes at him."Oh no amore, you will take what I give you."I was abou
My lips parted in surprise that he figured it out. Taking long strides he hugged me tightly making Alesso move back a little and not getting me sandwiched between them both. I guess we both were out of words. Pulling back I saw tears in his eyes making my eyes sting. I think crying is also contagious. I swear I saw Alesso rolling his eyes beside me."I can't believe this." He says to himself and looks down at my belly and then back at me with nothing but happiness filled in his eyes."How did you find out?" I asked."Well if you are trying to hide your bump, you are not being successful at it." He said pointedly while poking my stomach softly making Alesso shove Matteo's hand away from mine. "Hey! I was bonding with my niece!""What makes you sure it's a she?" Alesso asked raising a brow."Well, I surely don't want a mini you running around here," Matteo says with a duh tone.Alesso was about to protest but Matteo cur him off. "Omg! Have you decided the name yet?" He said with enthus
Maria.My head hurts. So does my hands. And legs. And my back. My eyes feel heavy, not wanting to open them any sooner. I feel certain vibrations from under where I lay. Sounds of the engine perks my ears making me stir in my sleep. Where the hell am I?I try to open my eyes but I couldn't see anything. I was met with darkness. My heart skipped a beat when I realised I couldn't see due to a certain blindfold on my eyes. I panic more when I couldn't move my body. It felt like something was holding my hands and legs together.I parted my lips, wanting to call someone for help but nothing moved. Tears pricked in my eyes wanting to know where I was and why I wasn't able to move. Sweat formed on my forehead when I heard distinct thumbs reaching me making my body shiver inn fear.I wanted to scream, wanted to run back home where I was safe but I couldn't."IILIO Xa pocHyIacb." I heard a man's voice, hearing the Russian accent make my insides churn.I don't even know what he is saying."cOHT
MariaI gaped at the figure standing in front of me. Blinked once and then again. My brain was not able to comprehend what was going on. She looked so different.Or should I say he?Her toned body was replaced by a more muscled one. The brunette hair was of a much darker shade. She stood there in the room, a few inches bigger than me. Her slutty clothes were now replaced with a proper suit, pants and boots. Her short hair was properly combed reaching her ears."I see you are shocked." She walked towards me making me go rigid.This is real? Did Ivan bash my head on the wall while leaving?"H-how?" That was all my pathetic mouth could say."How am I alive?" She asked making me nod.My head was hurting by the number of surprises I am getting today."Well, I never died in the first place."She shrugged and sat on the far corner of the bed. Who the fuck did we bury!?"But you did- we buried you- mourned for." My eyes tear up."Mourn for me?" She scoffed. "You people were throwing parties-"
