[ Marcello ]It felt unbelievable, almost like a beautiful dream from which I don’t want to wake up. Ella confessed that she has feelings for me. She said those magical words to me and I kept rooted on my place, processing how should I react. She was standing right in front of me, smiling like an angel.“Will you let me kiss you now, Marcello?” Ella’s question snapped me out of my trance.“No, I won’t.” I said and her face fell.I cupped her face and pulled her closer, “I won’t let you kiss me because I want to give you a proper kiss, mon cheri.” I said and sealed our lips.She stiffened at first but then she relaxed and reacted to the kiss, it was deep and passionate. It was full of emotions, I knew how she feels about me. My happiness had no bounds. I bite on her bottom lip to explore her mouth, her lips felt delicious. I didn’t want to leave them. Our tongues fought for dominance but I wanted to prove her that she’s mine and she has found herself a passionate lover.Flash of camera
[ Ella ]The next two days passed in a blur for me because I only felt happiness, utmost happiness as Marcello planned surprise rooftop dinner dates, ball dance in French style and many more things. We grew impossibly closer, both emotionally and mentally because we understand each other.He respected our boundaries and never did something more than kissing me. He knows that I need time to open up when it comes to physical intimacy. He is giving me space to adapt myself for more than just kissing and cuddling. My respect for him grew more. My fears slowly began to disappear.I stretched my hands when we landed safely at his private airstrip. It was about the dusk time.“I am already missing Paris. I want to go there again.” I pouted.He wrapped a shawl around my shoulders, his security circle overwhelmed me because there were hundreds of armed men, all six feet tall and bulky but I have to accept his identity. He can’t play a lover boy all the time.“I’ll take you to other places when
[ Ella ]“Oh My God! Are you serious, Ella?” Rita and Lucy exclaimed when I told her about my confession during our trip.“Calm down, girls. Everyone is around. Uncle Rio shouldn’t know about this until I talk to Marcello about this first.” I eyed them and blushed thinking about the last few days when I and Marcello were inseparable.“Ella, may I ask you a question? I know you’re gonna freak out but I can’t hold my curiosity anymore.” Rita, being the craziest of all, eyed me.“Rita, no! don’t even go there. Do you want to give her a heart attack?” Lucy scolded her.“What do you want to ask, Rita?” I asked her because I didn’t get any idea of their conversation.Rita leaned on my shoulder and whispered, “Did you lose your V-card during the trip? I bet Marcello couldn’t hold himself after seeing a bombshell like you.”I coughed hearing her question. My cheeks heated up because it was something I didn’t expect her to ask me.“Rita, I told you.” Lucy slapped her head.“What is wrong in ha
[ Ella ]“Marcello, he has no right to decide for us. He is my uncle, I get it but I am an adult and I am not bound to do anything he says.” I said with crossed hands.“Calm down, Ella. You need to listen to me first. I think you should go back home. I don’t you’ll understand anything I say now. Your anger will influence your judgement.” Marcello said very calmly to me and I wondered how he was tolerating my uncle’s behavior was no less than of a dictator.“Marcello, I am in a right state of mind. You can tell me if there something I should know.” I said trying to keep myself calm.“Alright, then let’s go from here. This place will only rise your temper.” He said getting up from his seat. I followed behind him. My mood was very disturbed. It’s not that I was against the idea of marrying Marcello, but the time wasn’t right and I don’t want to rush into anything.I noticed extra security with him when I walked out of the café. His bodyguards opened the backseat doors for us and he instr
[ Ella ]“Ella, what are you going to next? This is insane.” Lucy, whom I trusted with everything, asked me after I explained the whole situation to him.“I don’t know. My head is splitting thinking about everything. I don’t know what to do and I hurt Marcello in the process. Sometimes, I think I don’t deserve a man like him.” I said shaking my head with a heavy heart.“Technically speaking, you are the owner of the café on the paper. It is famous for it’s sweet dishes like cakes, cookies and doughnuts. You can transform it into restaurant in the near future. You have loyal customers and well set up business, you just need to invest more capital and mindblowing dishes. You can live your dreams even after marrying Marcello. The marriage can’t be a big fat wedding. You can keep it low for time being if you think his name and personality will overshadow your identity.” Lucy suggested.“It’s not easy as you think, Lucy.” I said going towards the window of my room and saw guards down.“You
[ Ella ]“Marcello.”I called out his name when I reached at the river bank. He was already there, his back facing me, the place was deserted.He turned around and the way he smiled at me, he took my heart away with that contagious smile. My heart ached because I was going to miss it.“I thought you won’t come, Ella.” He said and walked up to me. I was trying my best to hold back my tears.He embraced me and I found solace in his arms.“I missed you, mon cheri.” He kissed my hairs.“You were the one who ignored me, Marcello. I missed you terribly.” I complained breaking the hug.He wiped my tears and kissed my forehead.“Marcello, I am here to answer your question.” I said trying my best not to cry and stay strong but I failed. I love this man deeply but sometimes we must take tough decisions for the sake of the people we love.“Ella, if your answer is a ‘no’ then don’t say anything because I can’t take your rejection.” He said in a hoarse voice.“Marcello, please listen to me careful
[ Marcello ]“You seem to be in a very good mood today, Capo. I guess it’s Miss Ella, right?” Vincenzo teased me as we practised shooting in the range.I put my gun down and looked at him, “And I guess you’re more interested in knowing if I went to the café and saw her friend Lucy there, am I right?” I teased him back knowing well that he had a serious crush on Ella’s friend but being a shy, introvert man, he’d never make the first move.As I predicted, his ears turned red and he focused on the shooting but he missed the shot.“Love is a distraction and women are a danger sign, Capo. Do you want me to miss my aim like this and come back to you in a plastic bag?” He looked at me.“Love doesn’t make you a weak man and you missed the shot because you are failing to balance your life, if you keep resisting your feelings, I fear you’ll fail at both front, Vincenzo. I am saying this to you with my personal experience. I had seen Capo Vincent closely and how the most successful mafia man saw
[ Ella ]I felt nervousness stirring in my stomach as the car drove towards the estate. Marcello called me in the afternoon to ask me if I could join his family dinner tonight and I couldn’t say no because his mother is a very sweet lady. I feel motherly affection whenever I am with her so I accepted his invitation but tonight, I’ll be meeting her as Marcello’s girlfriend.The car entered in the main premises of the estate and immediately Vincenzo and a half dozen guards gathered around the car to shield me even at the safest place in Sicily.“Good evening, Signora Ella.” Vincenzo greeted me and I politely smiled at him.“Good evening, Vincenzo. Well, I need to talk to you. I hope you spare a minute after the dinner.” I said to him and as I predicted, the shy guy looked flushed.“Sure, Signora.” He said with a nod.Marcello was waiting for me at the entrance of the mansion. He opened his arms for me as soon as he saw me. I quickly embraced him.“I missed you, mon cheri.” He said in a
[ Ella ]“Mama, how did it happen?” I asked Marcello’s mother in a low whisper because I didn’t want Marcello to disturb.She gestured me to come with her to the balcony. I gave him a painful glance before following her out of the room. The midnight moon was shining in the sky.“How did it happen, Mama?” I asked her again because it was important for me to know who could attack on the most powerful mafia man.She shook her head tiredly, “We don’t know, dear. Marcello went to Rome without any security for a secret meeting with someone. He didn’t inform anybody and see what happened.” She said and sobbed silently.I hugged her, we were going through the same phase of fear and grief.“Mama, he is fine and healing under our care, that’s all I care for. We need to be by his side and make him feel at home.” I said.“Ella, I want you to stay with him and take good care of my son. I can only trust a few people with my son and you are his fiancé. Will you stay with him until he recovers?” Mama
[ Ella ]“Mama, how did it happen?” I asked Marcello’s mother in a low whisper because I didn’t want Marcello to disturb.She gestured me to come with her to the balcony. I gave him a painful glance before following her out of the room. The midnight moon was shining in the sky.“How did it happen, Mama?” I asked her again because it was important for me to know who could attack on the most powerful mafia man.She shook her head tiredly, “We don’t know, dear.

Will you stay with him until he recovers?” Mama
[ Ella ]After the dress shopping, Mama insisted us to have dinner with her. I would be happy to dine with her in normal circumstances but Massimo was with us. He left no chance to taunt me in an indirect language and it made me miss Marcello even more. I tried calling him multiple times but his phone was switched off, I thought he was in the flight but when the clock hit nine in the night, my anxiety grew deeper.“Ella, he must be caught in work or his flight got delayed. Don’t think too much. He’ll be back to you.” Lucy said, who decided to stay with me until Marcello returns.“You know their line of work, Lucy. My parents were killed in mafia rivalry. I can’t help but feel really scared right now. I just want to hear his voice.” I shared my concern with her.“You can call Vincenzo and ask him. I am sure he knows where is Marcello.” Lucy suggested and I thought I should ask Vincenzo who is Marcello’s right hand man.I dialled Vincenzo’s number but he didn’t answer which only gave wi
[ Marcello ]“Edward, this isn’t something we must ignore. These activities in our territories are the warning signs that we need to reanalyse our strategies and recruit more trained men to encounter these situations. I can’t imagine that China also stepped into this drug cartel and they’re aiming at our markets.” I said to Edward who flew to Rome for our secret meeting. Nobody had any clue about our meeting because it will only give wind to chaos and distrust in the syndicate.“I completely understand, Marcello. The Mexicans and Columbians are also giving us headache. I want to roast those rats alive, bloody thieves.” Edward groaned, the frustration was clearly evident on the English mafia lord’s face.“They’re not our headache if they don’t dare to meddle in our business. Let’s Aitana Greyson’s syndicate deal with them. We should focus on the Chinese.” I offered him a drink which he gulped down in a go.“You’re right but I felt talking to her would create doubts between us and the D
[ Ella ]“Vincenzo, do you like my best friend?”I broke the awkward silence inside the car. We were stuck in traffic jam. Vincenzo was on the front seat while we were sitting on the backseat. I could notice him stealing glances of Lucy who was busy in her phone or rather trying to hide her shyness in his close presence.Their face welcomed redness. Vincenzo immediately looked out of the window to hide his embarrassment on my bold question.“Signora, I am calling another car, it’ll take you to the designer’s shop because this jam would take time to clear.” Vincenzo ignored my question whereas Lucy passed me a murderous glare.“I’ll talk to Mama. Don’t worry, we have plenty of time but you won’t be with us like this again. I know you, Mr. Mafia. You are brave, fight like an action hero but when it comes to expressing your feelings, you are worse than a shy high-school girl.” I teased him.“Ella, have you lost your mind?” Lucy whispered yelled at me.“Lucy, there’s no use of hiding your
[ Ella ]“Someone is blushing. I guess Mr. mafia is the reason, am I right, Lucy?” Rita teased me.I woke up very late, it was almost afternoon as we talked and made more love till early hours of morning. Marcello left a note with breakfast for me along with some expensive bath salts to soothe my aching body.I could still feel his touches all over my body and it made me really hot. I wanted him to hug me badly. To distract my mind from my boyfriend, I decided to come to the café.“You’re not answering means we are missing here something.” Rita, the over curious friend looked at me suspiciously but then her eyes descended down and widened.“Oh My God! Is it a love bite?” Rita closed her mouth and I froze.“Ella, I can also see this.” Lucy, the wiser one touched my neck gently and I jerked up.I quickly hid my neck with my scarf. I couldn’t meet their eyes due to shyness.“Did you lose your v-card last night?” Rita inspected and I coughed.She’s always the bolder one among us who doesn
[ Ella ]Marcello dropped feathery kisses on my face while his hands parted my thighs. My heart was beating on a dangerous pace. His tip was rubbing on my throbbing pussy.“I love you, Ella.” He whispered against my lips before he slowly eased his way inside me. The feeling was euphoric. He stilled when he was completely inside me. He was huge, I felt so full.“Tell me when you’re fine.” He said softly kissing my forehead.The initial was soon replaced by unexplainable pleasure as he moved inside me in a rhythmic pace. His hands pinned mine above my head.“Please…” I said in need, I wanted him to move faster.“Please, what, mon cheri?” He teased me and stopped moving which annoyed me.“Please, move faster.” I hissed and he slammed hard into me.“As you wish, my love.” He kissed my lips passionately and flipped our position. Now, he was moving into me from behind while his hand rubbed my clit to add more pleasure to our body.His face buried in my neck, he gave me a bite and then kisse
[ Ella ]The raw passion between us could be felt in the air. I could hear Marcello’s heart thumping loudly in his chest as he made me sit on his lap, it was an intimate position.“I think we should stop before it’s too late to hold back, mon cheri.” He whispered tucking my hairs behind my ears.“What if I don’t want us to stop?” I knew what I was doing but it felt so right, so perfect.His eyes met mine to find the gravity of my words, his hand releasing my waist and cupping my face.“Ella, are you sure of your wish because once we step on that path, there’s no going back. I want you to be mine in every sense since the day I saw you for the first time. It’s not my lust but the desire I have for you.” He confessed.My heart fluttered hearing his words. I felt butterflies in the pit of my stomach before I leaned and kissed his nose.“I want you to have me, Marcello. I am all yours.” I said and before I could breathe, he sealed our lips and rose from the sofa with me in his lap. He’s so
[ Marcello ]I observed that Ella was lost. She hardly ate anything, when Mama asked her, she said that she had a headache but I could feel there was something more behind her unusual silence. Massimo’s behaviour was also different, he wasn’t as excited as he was before meeting Ella. I hoped they got along well. I want a happy family.Currently, I was driving Ella back to her home. She was resting her head with her eyes closed but she wasn’t asleep.“Ella, do you want me to stop by a pharmacy first?” I asked her. I was concerned for her health.“No, it’s fine, Marcello. I’ll be fine in the morning. I just need a good sleep.” She lazily opened her eyes and said in a low, tired voice.“No, it’s not a problem. You shouldn’t avoid your health. Headaches aren’t common if you don’t have chronic disorder.” I insisted but she leaned on my shoulder and laced our fingers.“I am fine, Marcello. I had a routine health check-up last month. I am totally fine. You are behaving more like my mother th
