[ Arielle ]I wore the dress Vincent hand picked for me from the same store where I bought the gown I wore during the wedding anniversary party of Whitfords. This one was black in the finest fabric so I won’t feel any discomfort on my skin, it ended just above my knees and had an off-shoulder sleeves with sweetheart neck. I matched it with the diamond set he placed with the dress, I left my hairs open and looked at my final appearance in the mirror.The small baby bump bulging out gave me a proud look. I am going to be a mother very soon. I checked the time, it was around six-thirty in the evening, Vincent didn’t tell me anything before leaving, he just told me to be ready before seven and Marcello will drive me to the place where he had arranged our first ever date.I walked out of my room and as expected, Marcello was dotting outside. He was scrolling on his phone but when he saw me, he quickly thrusted it in his pocket and walked towards me.“You look beautiful, Signora.” He praise
[ Arielle ]“You took efforts to cook all my favourite dishes from my home and you have done it all by yourself?” I gasped when he asked me for a dance after the delicious meal I had with Vincent and he spilled that he cooked it for me.“Yes, Mi Regina. I can cook and this shouldn’t be surprising for you because I lived almost a decade alone in U.S. I had to do all chores by myself as I couldn’t trust just anyone and those were my favourite cuisines as well except for the beetroot juice which I added in the menu for your health.” He said and I made a puppy face since I hate beetroot.“I still feel that I am living a dream and I don’t want to wake up. I want us to live like this even if for a few moments.” I said resting my head on his chest but he broke the hug and made me look at him, the music was playing in the background.“Arielle, this isn’t a dream and I promise you tonight, in this moment that your life is going to be more beautiful with every dream you harboured secretly in yo
[ Arielle ]His lips left soft kisses on my exposed cleavage as he gently laid me down on the mattress. Our eyes never leaving each other’s sight for a moment. The night was special for both of us. He confessed his feelings for me, now we both knew how much we love each other.“I’ll be gentle.” He assured me even though I knew he’d not go rough. His palm gently stroked my baby bump to ensure that his baby was fine.“I know, please don’t waste time. These pregnancy hormones are making me aroused.” I confessed, it wasn’t something I feel embarrassed for. He’s my husband and living away from him for months taught me a big lesson. I’d never hide anything from him.“Sure, my love.” He kissed my lips and slowly removed the sleeves of my dress, my breasts bounced out of the dress and his eyes darkened when he saw my perky nipples.“They have grown bigger and fuller.” He said and pressed his palms over my breasts and I arched my back to let the pleasure flow through my veins.He slowly remove
[ Vincent ]I kissed the forehead of my angel who was sleeping peacefully on the bed after my confession and the passion filled night which we both needed to compensate for the time we spent apart. The sun was rising in the horizon, I don’t think I have ever slept this late in my entire life except when I am with Arielle.I walked out of the wooden house to stretch my arms in the warm sunrays and to clear my mind about some decisions. This bump in my life taught me a lesson I think I needed. I have to sort my priorities first. I can’t sail on two boats. Keeping my family safe, giving them my time and managing my mafia business can’t work out together.“Good morning, Capo. I can see you had a great night.” Marcello’s sleepy voice forced me to look at his direction and his state was the evidence that he didn’t sleep throughout the night so I could spend carefree time with Arielle. I feel bad for him, these last months were more exhausting for him.“You can take rest now, Marcello and do
[ Vincent ]The gut-wrenching screams of Desmond and Giovanni were like sweet music to my ears. My men were torturing them since they were taken under our custody. I felt satisfied whenever I heard the lash kissing their pulped skin.“Stop! It’s enough for today, I think they need rest now. Treat their wounds. I want them to recover first before we start again.” I said to my men and they back away from bloodied figures of my enemies. Their swollen eyes were looking at me, I could see fear in them.What I always enjoy to see in my enemies’ eyes.“Desmond, I have a good news for you. I thought I should deliver it to you personally.” I took slow steps towards him and splashed cold water on his face, “Your son called me to pass his message to you.” I said and his brows furrowed.“Do not mention that useless cunt’s name in front of me.” He hissed.“Well, your son is doing well and he wants me to tell you that he’s selling your port routes to the Mexican mafias to call a truce with them. It
[ Arielle ]The air was filled with quietness as I, Vincent and Feline sat down for dinner. I was the one who insisted her to stay with us. Knowing the dark past that both Feline and Vincent shared, I thought it would be a good idea to make her feel welcomed. She has lost everything, at this age, she was all alone, all by herself. I feel bad for her.“I am happy for both of you. You’re going to be parents very soon.” Feline broke the silence, her polite smile and her gaze on my baby bump said it all.“Thank you, Ma’am. We want your blessing for your child.” I said with lowered gaze as a sign of respect.“Yes, Feline. We have faced and endured a lot since we got married. We want a fresh start with our child and we need your blessing.” Vincent said with a smile.“My blessings are always with you two.” She smiled widely and sipped her drink, “What are you having, a boy or a girl? I am sure it’s a boy.” She said teasingly.“It’s a girl, Feline.” Vincent said with pride in his eyes as he p
[ Arielle ]“Please, place these roses in the centre of the table, make sure you use the white clay vase. Vincent loves red roses placed in his favourite vase which I brought from Greece for him.” I instructed the house staff.Today’s special for us. It’ll mark a new chapter of our lives. We have been waiting for this day for almost three years and today, we’ll finally be released from the shackles of our destiny and build our own fate.“Signora, you have to come with me.” I heard the voice of my princess’ caretaker and I turned to face her. She was standing in front of me with folded hands.“Don’t tell me she again gave you a hard time in bathing her?” I crossed my hands across my chest.“I am sorry, Ma’am but she isn’t coming in my hold. I tried but she sneaked into Capo’s office where our entry is prohibited. Signor Marcello isn’t around otherwise I had requested him to bring her out of there.” She told me and I knew that my daughter plays this trick whenever she doesn’t want to do
[ Arielle ]“This is unacceptable! Have you lost your mind?”Lorenzo’s roar echoed in the silent air of the gigantic dining room of the estate, his eyes oozing lava as he glared at his eldest son, ready to see blood. I was afraid imagining how things may lead to violence but when I glanced at my husband, he looked very calm.“Papa, I have made my decision. I am not going to step back now. My children also deserve a normal life like other kids of this family. I don’t want my daughter to live like a caged bird just because I’ll be too worried for her security and cage her like a wingless bird. I don’t want to live a living hell for the rest of her life because only other mafia can guarantee her safety. She’ll lose her freedom to choose her life partner. Not everyone is as fortunate as I or my siblings. So, I have decided to pass over the position of Capo Dei Capi to Marcello until one of our kids, either mine or Alessandro’s or Stefano’s wants to take over the family business.” Vincent
[ 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
[ 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
[ 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 ]“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
