Fully clothed and my strength fully restored, I decided to make breakfast since we haven't had anything to eat and the rain is still pouring. And hard.Vince has made it somewhat a tradition to take us out for breakfast for the past week, and then show me around for a while. And I have to say it did help a lot in our relationship, we've come closer to each other and much more open minded to each other.Once Vince insist I should be free with him and speak up my mind when ever I feel it, and him on the other hand has become less controlling and demanding giving me chance to make my own choices.It's the sweetest thing he's has done and my heart swollen seeing him trying to adjust, it's not easy for him as he has always be the one calling the shots but he's trying for our relationship and for me.Seeing him trying to make things easier for us which I know didn't settle well with him always makes my heart flutter and my stomach filled with butterflies.I think I'm falling for him.Snappi
AvaIt would be difficult for me to describe how I felt at the moment. Obviously, a form of anger was starting to build from within me.I should be terrified, petrified even and to speak the truth I am. But my anger is much more than anything other thing.My anger is directed to Vince and his rivals, I'm angry at Vince for having too many enemies and his enemies for making me their main target.What I don't understand is why.Why me, why am I the main target. I just don't get it, why using me as a bait to get to Vince. If they want to fight with Vince why not go directly instead of endangering innocent people.I'm just an ordinary girl living an ordinary life before Vince came along, now I have to look over my shoulder Everytime I'm out. I'm not sure if I'm safe in our own home.This isn't what I planned for, it's not want I sighed up for. All I wanted was a peaceful and quiet life, why can't I have that, why am I placed in the middle of these chaos.I don't want this.I don't think I
My gaze move from my phone to the door, I watch as Vince quietly walks into the room. He made a pause and frown when he stare at the empty bed, like he was expecting me to sit on it waiting for his arrival like an obedient little girl.Well jokes on him! I grinned.If only I could just jump on him attacking with blows for locking me in, but I know he would soon notice my presence and just like that his gaze swept the place and locked on mine.I saw his tensed features visibly relax, and he walks further into the room. Quickly, I stood up denying him access to the closet. He has been drenched from the rain, although the rain ended an hour ago and his clothes weren't dripping with water anymore, but he was still soaked."You can't just keep me lock in here as it's pleases you!" No reply, all I got in response was a raised of eyebrow."It's very..... Very foolish!" I said still no reply, instead he turned on his heels and walk straight to the bathroom leaving standing here like an idiot.
Ava p.o.vI collapsed on the hard wooden floor completely exhausted and breathless, my limbs ache and every parts of my body hurts like hell. I remain laying there on my stomach not wanting to stand up, my bones are too weak for any more movements plus I find it relaxing here.My breathing is hard, short and fast. My throat is dried to the point it's almost sore, sighing in contentment as I felt at peace laying on the floor and gathering my strength.I had just finished jogging eight laps around the perimeter of the big Field that lay behind the beach house. I just want to lay here and sleep to God knows when, The door open and shut disturbing my peaceful rest."Donna." I grunt and turn to Luca, my personal trainer and one of Vince most trusted men. Luca would easily passed as a giant, his stature is quite intimidating. He is tall, very tall easily towering over my 5'4 standing at six feet, large and extremely tense bulging muscles.There's is a five inches long scar across his left e
Ava p.o.vI stared at the center of the water which we were miles away from and watched the breeze caress it, creating an an uproar as the waves crashed against each other.A small gentle smile spread on my lips, it was one of contentment and awe. Watching the waves flowing tho and fro gave me a sense of serenity.Sighing, I slumped against the headrest of the seat bore out of my mind. And waiting anxiously for us to get home, I've missed everyone; my family, my friends and that consist of only Nate since Tricia was with me all this while, although we don't get to see each other often but we did sometimes, which are when Vince wants us to.I didn't really gave it much thought, since we were on our honeymoon and it was supposed to be only the two of us, no friends or family but I'm glad Tricia came along.Then again I miss school and most importantly for some reason I miss Marco more than anyone and anything, and I cannot wait to see him as if he's a part of me. I find it weird because
Ava p.o.v"Where are you going all dressed up, My love?" He asks in a low deep husky voice, dipping his head in between my boobs and sniffing them. This shook up my insides and I gulp audibly. I feel his hard erection press up against my stomach causing my head to spin and my mind fuzzy.He smirks when he realize that he has successfully have his effect on me, and must admit Only him can make me feel this way.I feel him shower kisses around my collar bone before he sucks hard on it, earning a rewarding moan from me. My hands climbed up to his chest and I clutch onto his shirt for support. Vince pulls me closer, I felt one of his hands trailing up and down my side while the other reach up to pull the dress from my shoulder.And that did it, I snap out of the spell I've been influence by. I gently push Vince back creating a little distance between us, He frown at my action. He reached out to pull me to himself but I grabbed his hands stopping him. There no way I'm letting him touch me
Ava p.v.oWe drove through the giant gate to the equally huge building of the school, The school is amazing and well constructed. It could easily pass as one of those small Universities, Yeah that big.I bet it's would cost a fortune to be enrolled in this school, well it's worth it seeing how big the school buildings are and how well kept it is. The teachers of course would be of high standards too.The driver, James pull up at a spot in the parking lot."Donna please wait here while I go get your son." James spoke up for the first since we left the house.I gave him a puzzled look, one for speaking to me with so much respect it almost choke me. As if he would be dead the second he said something wrong. Vince must have threatened him or something.Secondly, asking me to wait while he go bring Marco. If that's the case why am I here, what am I here for. I'm here to pick him up and I will do that by going in and bring him myself."It's okay, I will go get him myself." I offered a frien
VincenzoA car sat parked neatly and quietly in front of an iron steel gate that would easily intimidate a passerby. But not the people in the car, infact they seem unbothered that they were residing in front a powerful gangster's house.A Turkish gangster, they are considered big and powerful in Turkey. And most other Mafias steer clear from them, but certainly not Vincenzo and most importantly not when he was stolen from.Yes, it's Vincenzo and his men in the car parked in front of the Turkish gangster gate.Vincenzo was informed that the Turkish men ambushed his men when they were bringing in his containers. That's not the issue though, infact that's the least of Vincenzo's worries. What had tick him off was the fact that this small group were testing and playing with his patience.Vincenzo's patience with them is already wearing thin and now his patience is Lost. When they start gathering information about his wife and family.Vincenzo glare at Dante impatiently, they have been wa
Melanie’s POVPhoebe went all out with dinner. She made a spread that was enough to feed a small army.“There’s no way we’ll be able to finish what you made,” I told her when I saw how much food she had made.There was roast beef, potatoes, and steamed broccoli with what I knew to be her homemade gravy. Just like Alice, Phoebe was a great cook, so I knew everything she made was certainly delicious.Adriano pulled out a seat for her at the seat of dining table and did the same for me and she gave me a knowing smile when his back was turned to us.I knew what the smile was for. He was rich and also a gentleman. Could he be any more perfect?“Everything looks so good, Phoebe,” Adriano said once he’d taken a seat across from me.“Thank you, Adriano,” she replied. “At least someone appreciates the dinner I made.”I sighed, now he was making me look bad. “You know how much I enjoy your cooking, I’
Melanie’s POVI should have known the last time, Adriano had the other nurses literally eating out of the palm of his hands how big of a charmer he was.Phoebe was completely enthralled by him, and there I was nervous about how she was going to receive him, especially with how blunt he was with her by the door.But it had the opposite effect on her. Phoebe appreciated his brutal honesty and seemed to think that he was good for me.I guess I should be happy with that, it means he’s holding up to his end of the bargain but I felt some way at the fact that Phoebe took an instant liking to him when I prepared to defend him tonight.Was it jealousy? Heck no. There’s no way I was jealous of Adriano. I mean it took a few weeks after I moved in for, Phoebe to warm up to me while she took to him instantly. Did that make me jealous? Absolutely not!Adriano also somehow knew the right thing to say to make, Phoebe blush.
Melanie’s POV“Are you ready for this?” I asked.“That’s an unnecessary question, little nurse,” Adriano said. “Are we doing this or not.”“I just need a few minutes to get in character,” she said.Adriano chuckled but remained silent while I tried to steady my breathing. It was Saturday evening and we were currently parked in the parking lot of my apartment complex. Phoebe had called me earlier in the day to ask if, Adriano had any allergies or something he didn’t eat.I didn’t have the answer to that question but I figured he ate anything, considering the kind of guy he was so I told her no.Now I wondered if I did the right thing. Maybe I should have asked him, but I avoided him all day until it was time to leave.“Do you have any allergies?” I asked.“Huh?”“Phoebe called earlier wanting to know if you had any allergies and I told her you didn’t,” I explained.Adria
Melanie’s POVAlice's words stayed with me all day. I’ve spent so much time believing that, Adriano had taken away my choice I had never stopped to wonder if I gave up too easily.Did I really have the option to make a different choice or could I give in to my new reality and be content with it?The thought of going back to the house didn't really fill me with dread like before when I was still new to his house.But apart from restricting my movement, he had treated me nicely. I ate well, slept in comfort, and got freaking chauffeured to work, even though I hadn't gotten used to the last part.Every time I demanded anything from, Adriano, it felt like I was making a deal with the devil, in exchange for my soul.It didn't help that he kept making me flustered when I was around him, causing me to act out of character.Nevertheless, I called, Phoebe and informed her of the plan to visit du
Melanie’s POVIf I was a betting girl, I could have won some money from, Alice. She was so positive this conversation was going to go well but couldn’t have been more wrong.This conversation had gone so off-kilter that I was wondering why I was still seated here talking to him.“Are you threatening me?” I asked."I'm not threatening you, little nurse," he replied.“Then what’s the meaning of what you just said?”“I just thought you needed a reminder of how you got here,” he said.“Oh, I remember. How could I ever forget,” I said. “Every second of every day for the past few weeks I’ve been reminded of how much my life had taken a drastic turn all in a matter of a few moments!”I was breathing heavily and trying to control my anger. “I regret that moment.”“What moment?”“The moment I agreed to go, Dr. Thompson’s request to go on a house call. It wasn’t part of my job descrip
Adriano’s POV I watched her expression go from relieved to tense the moment I spoke and I almost felt bad for wanting to demand a condition from her. Emphasis on almost. I didn’t feel bad but I hated that, Melanie wasn’t completely relaxed around me yet. I mean she was pacing my office for minutes and I had to practically force the words out of her mouth with the way she was fidgeting and beating around the bush. I hated the fact that she hadn’t realized that there was about nothing I wouldn't do for her, if she played her cards right. So if she wasn’t ready to figure it out, then it was up to me to show her and that wouldn’t be possible if we don’t spend time together. Melanie thought she was being a disturbance by asking me to go see her neighbor as her boyfriend while I was in my seat, trying to hide my smile and sounding as neutral as I possibly could. “A condition?” I nodde
Melanie’s POVIt’s been well over an hour and I was pacing outside, Adriano’s study, debating whether I should do it or not.There was also the fact that I was nervous about being alone with him in an enclosed space.You can do this, Melanie. The worst he can do is say no. There's absolutely nothing to be worried about.I didn’t know how effective the pep talk I was giving myself was but I guess I had to try.I finally stopped pacing, took in a deep breath, and let it out through my mouth. Just as I raised my hand to knock on the door, it was flung open.I jerked back in surprise while Adriano was smirking at me.“If you pace anymore, there might just be a dent on the floor and we don’t want that, do we, little nurse?”Great. Now I’ve gone and embarrassed myself before I even said anything. But…“How did you know I was outside?” I asked.“You don’t exactly walk quietly,
Melanie’s POVI went about my usual routine when I got to the house. Took a shower and went downstairs to have dinner with, Alice.Alice, with her mother-hen nature, didn't fail to notice that something was off about me. I quickly learned that there was no hiding your feelings from her, at least I was sure of mine.She was just so attentive to details. It was the kind of trait that couldn’t be taught, but was a part of a person and, Alice was certainly one of those people that got the trait.“You know I’m only going to keep asking you what’s wrong, right?” Alice said. “Why can’t you just take my word for it and leave it at that?” I asked.“Because you’re acting a bit jittery. Like you’re about to jump off your skin,” she said. “Why? Are you scared of something or someone?”I shook my head. “No, it’s nothing of the sort,” I answered.“Then tell me what it is?”“It’s just that I might have gott
Melanie’s POVI pushed my confrontation with Lydia out of my mind and focused on getting through the rest of my shift which thankfully, went without any major incidents.I had just changed out of my scrubs and was on my out of the changing room when I got a call from, Phoebe.Phoebe was a sweet, old lady that lived on the same floor of my apartment. She also had a cat named, Orange and I usually helped her watch her cat.My stomach was dipped with nerves. It's been a while since she's seen or spoken to me so I knew why she was calling. What the hell was I going to tell her? It was obvious I hadn’t moved out but I’ve been MIA for weeks. I was surprised she hadn’t even called earlier. However, I was more annoyed with myself for forgetting about her.I had a mind to avoid, Phoebe’s call but I knew she was only going to keep calling so I accepted the call and put it to my ear.“Hi, Phoebe,” I greeted.
