Melody POV
" Melody " I felt someone call my name I looked to find the source of the voice " Melody " the voice called me again. But I couldn't find the source of the voice, the voice was familiar I couldn't place it though.
" Melody you killed me " killed ? That's impossible I've never killed anyone. " You killed me Melody " No I've never killed anyone " No I didn't kill you I've never killed anyone please leave me alone please. " Not until you feel my pain " I was beyond scared at this point who was this person and why were they doing this me help me please. Is anyone out there please help me.
I was running away from something I didn't know. " You can run but you'll never hide from me " I felt tears fall down my face I was exhausted from running at this point. When one dream ended another one would follow. He was the only thing would could save me from the dreams.&
Giovanni PovI followed Hillary into Melodys room,Melody was restless she seemed to be struggling with something, she had her hands fisted. There was no way this was only muscle spasms, " She seems to be struggling, like she's having a bad dream could it be " I didn't respond, I had spent months without her, I had finally given up hope could it be she's waking up.I wanted to believe it but months of waiting had made me short of faith, I was glued to the spot. I didn't move I didn't speak. I couldn't believe my eyes, Hillary was a bit restless she was worried. I didn't understand why she would be worried about what was happening it's not like Melodys recovery had anything to do with her.
My sister came in shortly afterwards, " I have been looking for you all around. And then I figured you'd be here, Hillary told me about all the work you did today you've caught up and in fact you did some of my work " "I hope you didn't overwork yourself, you need to rest your going through a difficult time and I would understand if you took some time off "You'll take care of everything " I asked her and she nodded. " Well thanks sis because I actually need some time off " " oh are you going somewhere " She asked. " No just need to deal with my loss, I'm going to let her go" I told her knowing she'll tell my mom. Its time I woke the old Giovanni up if I had to punish these people who had such a nerve to play games with me. " Do you think it's wise? Is there nothing you can do" She's never wanted me to switch off the machines due to her guilt from that day of not being able to protect Melody.
I woke up feeling kisses on my neck and face, I opened my eyes and Melody was awake she's never been this affectionate ever " Good morning handsome " She said . She looked like she had stars in her eyes the same way you have 😍 in your eyes when seeing your crush.Only difference is I'm her husband not crush. " Good morning beautiful, how long have you been up and where is your mask " I asked when I noticed she no longer had her nasal prongs on. " The doctor said I don't need it anymore I'm not struggling to breathe, and I just woke up " " Okay and what about food did he say you can eat?" She nodded " Yes but maybe 5 spoons of soup only liquids for now and then as I tolerate more he'll continue to increase the foods I can eat "For them to have spoken about so many things it must've been a while that she's been awake, " Where you watching me sleep " I asked her " Yes how did you figure it out " I la
Me and Giovanni spent the day in my bed talking about anything which came to mind and him promising to give me a tour of Switzerlands tourist attractions once I was healed. I am really excited ever since we got here Gio has been so busy with work I don't even know what's cool about Switzerland except their chocolates which Gio had gifted me a while back."What are you thinking about " Giovanni asked me " I'm thinking about the chocolates you got me a while back" I told him " Don't worry as soon as the doctor clears you first I'll be spoiling you rotten, you'll be begging me to stop " " I certainly look forward to that Mr Black "" I like you calling me that Mrs Black " And he winked."Well for starters we must get your legs strong because I want to take skiing under the matterhorn, it's one of my favorite things to do everytime I'm in Switzerlan
Giovanni PovI was really worried about Melody after she flipped on me about Hillary, I left the room to go to my study I could feel that if I stayed I might end saying things I'd later regret. We were on good terms at the moment I didn't want to rock the boat.Later on a startled Linda walked into my study " Can I help you Linda " I asked since I hadn't called her so I wondered what she was doing in my study. " Sir I thought I should tell you, Madam called me to her room. When I got there she started asking me questions, such as have you been entertaining any girls while she was in a coma "" She asked you that " I asked shocked she nodded. " What did you say to her " I asked this time. " I told her that only Jessica would come check up on you, and that you once had Hillary over. I'm sorry I told her she threatened me if I didn't answer truthf
"I'm acting differently, you forced me to marry you. Made me fall in love with you and now your entertaining Hillary while I'm in a coma! How heartless can you be, am I a joke to you ? Someone you can use as you wish " I felt like I was hearing things when did she conclude that I was cheating on her. " Sweetheart there's no one else for me but you, Hillary is my assistant. I only called her to come to the house so I could be close to you and not leave "" Melody all those months you were in that coma, I was a mess. I was so behind in work and I thank God for Nathaniel and my sister because I would've lost everything and me losing my business would've probably meant me losing you as well. I wouldn't have money to keep you here and pay for all the staff that's been looking after you. In the Mafia world every little wea
Melody PovI dragged myself awake when the alarm woke me up. I didn't want to wake up because I had pains, my body was aching since starting physical therapy with the physiotherapist. I was trying to regain my muscle strength and walk again. It's been weeks now now so I can finally walk, today will be the last day of my training thank God.I went to the shower and regulated the water, once the temperature was ideal. I then allowed the water to spill down on me. I started with washing my hair first, it had been a while of me not washing it and there's probably so many microorganisms that have started growing there. Once I was done with that I washed my body and got out of the shower.By now my hair had air dryed
Melody PovDo you know how messed up it is to be comforted by your attacker. When a stranger attacks you its better because you don't know them. But your husband it causes a different fear especially because you know he'll come back to continue what he started. I woke up in the middle of the night after a nightmare that Giovanni was killing me.When I woke up I realized he hadn't come back, my fear of him coming back and finishing what he started made me wake up. I toptoed and looked around the house once I was sure he wasn't around, I slowly made my way to the guest room on the second floor the one we never use, I got inside and locked the door I'd sleep here for the night and in the morning. I'll try find a way of getting myself out of this mess.
Layla PovHer friend Kenya arrived to her flat and found her pacing up and down, her apartment was beautiful it was penthouse overlooking the city it was even more beautiful at night because all the city lights illuminated even without lights and she was now driving the latent Range rover she looked and smelled like success. Yet her conscious was not at ease, " Layla what is wrong and please do not say nothing because as much as you should be happy with your new house and apartment I can clearly see something is still bothering you. You do not look happy in the least, when we go out you are always in your thoughts you are worrying me what is happening. "" I am a bad person Kenya " I said and looked at her I saw her frown she could not understand what I was talking about this is not the Layla they knew and of course she was going to be super disappointed with me. " What are you talking about you are not a bad per
MELODY POVI felt a little unsettled by the conversation I just heard and Giovannis reactions to seeing I had heard him. What could it be he was discussing that he did not want him hearing. " sweetheart I though you were sleeping, he said picking up his phone from the floor. Luckily his phone just had a small scratch and it seemed to still be working. " I woke up I am hungry as always, is your phone okay. Why were you so surprised to see me awake was I not meant to hear that ? " I asked him." Uhmm... ahhh you just scared me that's all " he sounded defensive but I was not going to ask him about that. " Sorry to have scared you I am simply going to go to the kitchen and get some snacks for me and the baby " I got out of bed, Giovanni still looked a bit shocked from seeing me awake he was acting strangely not like his normal self, and he looked lost in his thoughts like he was seeing me but not really seeing me. I left our bedro
I was frozen in place I did not know what to say to him or tell him, this was a dilemma for me I was not that kind of person who got off from hurting people. Melody was a nice woman who had been nothing but welcoming to her I could not do that to her, but I knew if I did not do this someone else would. And I needed the money so did it Matter who did whether me or someone else eventually someone would do it would they not ?" I am a busy man Layla its either you say yes or no I cannot wait for you forever make your choice. " Sir this is all confusing to me why would you want me to do such a thing what would you gain out of it. She's your wife she is very much in love with you and believes you love her just as much. " " You listen here I do not pay you to question the type of man I am and why I do the things I do, I want one simple thing from you to state my wife is incompetent that's all and I will make sure you are paid very generously and gi
Being back was a wonderful feeling after having Giovanni reassure me everything was okay I was now more comfortable I could relax, I constantly felt tired so right now I just woke up from my nap Giovanni was gone to work. So it was just me and the maids nor how I imagined my first day back but I just assumed Giovanni had really pressing matters at work because normally surely he would not just leave me alone in the house. As I was going door I heard the bell to the front door ringing there was no one in sight so I decided to go and open the door. A beautiful young lady dressed very formal stood with a nervous smile on her face." Good day Mrs Black I am Layla I am the psychologist appointed by your husband " I gave a little smile and moved away from the door to allow her entry " Hello I did not know you are coming today I thought Giovanni was still looking, and how did you know I am Mrs Black " Melody asked her after her Holly incident she di
Melody Pov I woke up with a massive headache and a beeping sound which I identified as being the cardiac monitor. I opened my eyes and saw a handsome well dressed man. He was on his phone unaware of my regained consciousness. I took this time to look at his features his manly jaw, his messy hair. His sharp noise, his long eyelashes and full brows he was perfect. I suddenly felt guilty I cheated on him I allowed to be fooled and manipulated by another man, how would I tell him the truth knowing how volatile he is. Would he even forgive me I wondered. His phone rang taking me out of my thoughts, as he answers his phone his eyes landed on me for a short while, before he looked away he did not seem at all happy to see I've woken up. My heart broke a little what was wrong I wondered. He answered the call and walked out the room, I felt my heart drop into the pit
Melody PovI woke up feeling extremely lost, Giovanni has been my protection, my love and my safe haven not being with him was slowly making me feel a whole inside my heart. They say you never really appreciate somethings till it's gone. I had been a fool I do not know what hold Nikov had over me but I can assure you my eyes were opened now.I allowed a stranger to sweet talk me I allowed him to fool me before he eventually showed me his true colors. It had been a pleasant week with me forgetting I was kidnapped as Nikov slowly started gaining my trust, he kept on being a charming man laying down the seduction real smooth. He did his manipulation slowly making me slowly want him so he could take Advantage of me.So yesterday he had me drinking wine as he planned and set up everything to lure me to his trap. He placed a camera in his room and made a set tape within my cons
Giovanni PovI was played, everything that happened was just a ploy so they could take my wife. Everything had been played and Holly was a big part of it all. I was made to hire her as I was desperate to have my wife back to her normal self they had used my vulnerability to play me.It took months of planning all the time Holly spent in the Mansion she had been gathering information for her father, Hollys father is a rival Mafia leader mostly based in the United States. He had wanted to partner up with me to strengthen his territory but weak as he was there was no way I was going to partner with him it did not make financial sense for me instead I seized all his Shipments coming into my territories weakening him even more he has always had in for me since.I obviously never thought he would be back this soon and conspiring with the Russians. Even combined they are still weaker
Who are you i asked while I observed him as he brought out the first aid kit out of the cabinet to the bed. He took out the disinfectant, cotton swab and bandages. He sat next to me on the bed, he took my wrist and placed it on his lap.He dipped the cotton in the disinfectant before bringing it close to my hand, he stopped and his eyes moved from my hand to my eyes " This will hurt a little " and then he focused back on my hand on his lap.He tried to be as gentle as possible occasionally bringing my hand up to his mouth and leaving kisses on them. I did not understand what was the meaning behind the action but I did not say anything. Once he was done he looked up to me and our eyes met.We locked eyes for a few seconds before I averted my eyes, I did not know why he was looking at me like that especially since we did not know each other.
We sat there a while silent and thinking of the worst which could happen and then we finally heard some voices were not sure whether to be happy or scared it could go both ways it could possibly be our security team or whoever bombed our house down." If it's my security team they will call out loud to me by my name which is not known to the other people not even you, but since they have not done so I suspect it's the other Mafia guys, I need you to be extra quiet they can never suspect that we are here do you understand " " Yes " I said in a whispered tone.Shortly afterwards we heard gunshots blasting out in a distance. " I think my security team is also here " the sound of Animals running was also heard the were probably spooked by the sounds of gunshots. I bit my Lower lip ensuring I don't make any noise.
