Everybody dies, surprise, surprise... I love Billie Eillish honestly! Thanks for reading and I hope you have a great weekend.
His brown eyes stared straight into his father’s, they were fierce, angry as he always was…no, it wasn’t anger, it was disappointment.Alexander knew he would never be enough for his father, he knew that he would never be good enough...But he tried, he tried so fucking hard everyday just to hear one encouragement from the man.“Again!”That one word has pushed him over the edge so many times, literally.Alexander stood under the falling snow, shirtless and a gun in his hand. His entire frame shaking from the cold.He stood in front of fifteen dogs, each chained to individual poles and each of them raised personally by him since he was five years old.Alexander’s thirteen-year-old body shivered and his teeth chattered uncontrollably. He was dripping wet, from head to toe…his brown hair matted to his forehead and he resisted the urge to heave as his stomach felt hollow.This was his fifth try today, the first to fourth ended up with him getting three hard punches to his stomach, his f
One faithful morning, Rain didn’t get a visit from her brother. Elisa had come to the room earlier than she usually did, made sure there was hot water in the bathroom and helped Rain to clean up. Dried her hair with a towel and then just let it fall down her shoulders to her back. Elisa picked out cotton pajamas for her even though it was already morning and Rain didn’t plan on going back to sleep. They were comfy and didn’t rub against Rain’s wounds they way other clothes would’ve. Elisa was looking out for her. How romantic, Rain thought with a faint smile on her face. Elisa had been taking care of her painstakingly ever since she woke up in this room and even before. She helped her change and before she could use her arms properly she helped her bathe. Elisa had been there almost every second of the day when Rain needed her...The thought of it bright tears to her eyes. When was the last time someone had spent their precious time taking care of her this much? Probably before
“Your brother here is going to sign a contract that’s going to make things easier for both of you, aren’t you Nicky?”Nicholas’ eyes were down, he seemed almost ashamed.As he should be.Rain thought to herself.The bastard never once apologized for leaving her, he avoided the topic whenever it was brought up tried to justify everything he did.Typical Nicholas.“What kind of contract?” Rain asked trying hard not to let her disappointment show. Rain recalled her life in Japan before she decided to come to Italy.She always felt alone despite living in the same house with three other girls. She stayed up all night and didn’t rest through the day, she would write…and write and write and her publisher would keep asking for more, keep setting deadlines. The was like a walking corpse, writing about things she wished she could have in her life and then crying after every chapter, depression consumed her and though her friends tried to help, they couldn’t but she made them believe tha
Rain sighed as the hot water cascaded down her skin. How long has it been since she’d taken a proper shower. Elisa always helped to clean her up and made sure to avoid her wounds so Rain wouldn’t really call it a proper bath.Rain had been given her own room in the mansion after breakfast.Breakfast.Her fate was decided at that Gabe in the morning. Nicholas had signed and despite the guilty and determined expression he carried on his face all through the process, Rain didn’t believe one bit that her brother had changed overnight and that there was a hundred percent chance that he would run away as he did before.She would stick to her whole plan because she was in this all alone, she decided.Alexander was following the rules of the family…these were not people to be messed with either, she couldn’t make him break his rules no matter how unreasonable they seemed to her.At least not yet.She would win them over, each and everyone of them just as she had planned before. Then th
“Has he left?” Enzo stood behind Alexander and Aldo and Vlad stood by the door to his study, both of them on high alert as he went through the files in his hands. The profiles of each and every man that had attacked them at the basement…and almost killed Rain. Recently, that was the only part of the incident he could focus on. That split moment when her life left her body and she had been so cold and lifeless in his arms haunted him…it made him question so much about himself. If Nicholas managed to repeat that stupid shit he pulled a few weeks ago, she would have to die by his hands…those were the rules and one that his father had called to remind him after Andrea who Alexander had almost forgotten existed, told his father about Rain. “He left early this morning, he went to see his sister beforehand but she didn’t open the door so they didn’t get to see each other before he left,” Enzo said from behind him. Alexander’s lips twitched. Was he just about to smile? Why did he feel s
“Assistant,” Alexander deadpanned. This was the second time in two day the man was shocking her spirits out of her body. She stared at him with her mouth slightly and secretly waited for him to laugh out loud and tell her that it was a silly joke. Of all the jobs in the world. “Why? You don’t want to?” Alexander asked, doing that thing with his brows where he raised one up in question. Rain shook her head…slowly because she was so confused that she wasn’t sure how to react in that moment. “It’s not that I don’t want to…it’s not like I even have a choice—I just—why me? And I thought Enzo was your assistant?” Rain had crossed paths with the man when she made her way to the room. He had given her a strange look before muttering a greeting and leaving with Aldo and Vlad who she hadn’t seen in a really long time. “Enzo is a Capo régime and most of the time, he isn’t even supposed to be by my side but he chooses to be but no, he isn’t my assistant,” “But he does everything for you,
How did it get there? Rain stared down at the rose she had found by her bedside the second the woke up. The scent drifting in the air and causing her to smile. It reminded her of her time in the cabin and Rain didn’t realize how much she missed waking up to the comforting scent of roses until this one was brought to her. Rain silently wondered with a smile, would they still let her go back to the cabin or did Alexander plan to have her stay in the mansion permanently? Did Elisa get her a red rose? How thoughtful, weird but thoughtful. Rain looked at the rose with her full attention, her eyes taking in every detail. From the dew that was still on the petals and the thorns that still remained. She shivered. The sight of those thorns bringing back memories, Alexander. She was thinking about him first thing in the morning. Could he have been the person to give her the rose? Almost immediately, Rain laughed at the thought and shook her head. She got down from the bed and went straigh
Rain decided on a black turtle neck tucked into plain high waisted pants that Elisa had brought for her. There had been extra clothes I’m the fucking bag…Rain wasn’t sure how the woman pulled it off but now that it had been made clear that she was only human and not secretly a demon, Rain had ran out of theories for what Elisa had succeeded in doing.Damn.“If it was me arranging my traveling bag, there’d probably be a hundred of those clothes out of it but here you are…you’ve achieved the impossible!” Rain said dramatically as she buttoned the trousers and tucked in her shirt properly.Elisa rolled her eyes and then dumped all of the contents of the bag on the bed.“You don’t know how to fold or how to pack, accept it. Move on,”Rain gasped and held her chest in mock hurt.“You’re so cold Elisa…”Elisa started hanging the clothes in the wardrobe one by one, not even bothering to look at Rain as she admired her look in the mirror.Black sneakers?Definitely!“Oh Elisa, what
