A puff of smoke escaped his lips as he leaned back in his chair..
The roll of a cigarette held in his hand as he released another smoke..
"This is a serious matter Gaetano don't make me repeat myself.." Antonio roared in anger..
This what he hated more about his father.. He wished the old man would just stay out of his personal life..
"Come on Antonio.. I didn't even know Pivaratti had a daughter" He mocked which made Antonio shake his head in disappointment..
"You want full ownership on the family business right?..
That will happen when your married.. That's how things work"
Gaetano leaned back in his office chair glaring at his father.. His sharp jaws hardened while his blue eyes went dark with hidden emotions..
He hated the manipulative side of his father more..
He had even lost interest in the cigarette that was stuck in his hand so he laid it in a bowl that laid some where on his office desk..
"I don't think am in the mood for marriage" his voice deep enough spilled the words with itching bitterness that laid on his tongue...
He couldn't continue this conversation and with that he got himself up on his feet.. He had to run to the field and he thought this was the chance
"I think this conversation is over Antonio" he replied grabbing his coat off the chair...
Antonio looked at his son one more time before stepping out of the room..
He wondered if the big headed fucker could just listen for once..
Gaetano looked around the office too before walking out..
Marriage!! what was even marriage to him??..
To him it was just a word
The only thing he knew about women were one night stands that he had most of the times with some of his stripers..
It wasn't a daily routine but to him they worked as a great distraction
"Why do you look like you caught some one stealing coke.." Marcos questioned as he sat in the back seat of the car..
His cold stare was forwarded towards his second in command.. He always kept wondering how this guy came to be his right hand..
" How many have you supplied in Mexico? " as always that was his way of dismissing a topic..
Marcos definitely knew and understand that every time he did that.. He just didn't want to talk about it..
"More than enough for testing.. Dominic said he will have to try it out before putting it on market"
He looked outside the window as the car kept moving..
" Anything from Aveline"
Marcos looked back at him before focusing back on the road..
"Were meeting her at the warehouse" after that was said most of the drive was silent until the car came to a halt..
He didn't wait anymore before getting out of the car as if it was burning him..
Most of his men greeted him on his way to the inside.. Taking steps down the hall that had two doors placed each on one side the metal door at the end of the hall..
The door creaked as he pushed it open revealing one man tied on the chair.. A few of his men turned to look at him.
Marco stood in front of him to have a clear view as well.. He knew the fucker but had no time to take the pleasure..
His cold stare moved over to the Aveline who seemed to be looking his way..
His presence always seemed to grab the women's attention but to him.. They will never deserve his time..
"To my office now" His deep voice got her nodding without even a first thought..
The air around him smelling danger and authority
To her she loved that Cologne..
She admired everything about him but all he thought of her was being part of the Di Martinos
She wanted to be next to him and do most of the crazy things with him or more be the lady..
Her heart flattered every time he was around her but just like the rules.. He could never play with her
He treated her like a sister..
The office door in the warehouse was pushed open and he walked over to his chair allowing her to close it behind her..
" Details.. " he asked taking a sit and looking through most of the files that were placed on his table but he never found any interesting..
He wasn't a man of beating around the bushes.. Just on point
"Conzalato went behind our back and played with the Nicotine we had supplied for Sicily.. But we managed to get most of his best machines as our pay"
By the time the words had played in front of him.. He didn't bother to look even surprised though his anger was visible in his blue eyes and his jaw had hardened..
He had his black gun in his hold using a white hand kerchief to clean it..
" I think by now he knows the machines are missing " were his only words as usual never expect much of a reply from him..
He placed his gun back in his clad boot and stood..
"Good Job " he added..
Making her nod proudly. Most of the times he made want to try out her bitch characters to get him but she knew better than to play with Gaetano Di Martino...
He sat in the car one more time as Marcos drove off.. "You know Conzalato will attack soon"
Gaetano's smirk grew big at the existence of Marco's words..
"I will be waiting" as usual he liked keeping his words mostly in his thoughts..
Short answers were his thing and Marcos was used to this from the past years he had known him..
The drive was again silent.. He loved the way danger used to play around him..
He was more found of the smell of blood and the tastes of wine..
It was no time before they arrived at the new club he was opening up.. He smirked at the fact that things were going more well..
"Take a look around.. I will check on the Casino and the new girls" his words came out with authority ..
"Why do you get the girls?" Marcos asked sarcastically making him shake his head in disbelief..
"You can join me when your done Marco" He replied and without waiting for any more replies he took hard strides in to his new club..
It was two days now ever since she had left home..There was no night that she didn't think about her father..Franco had dropped her at the bus stop and that's where she got on a bus that drove her in to the new town..He was true to his words and with that now she had started living with his young sister that welcomed her and showed her so much love"Mia am not sure about this" She whispered making Mia who was adding make up to her face turned to look at her.."Look Larissa it's just serving drinks.. You can do it"Larissa looked at the tight open black dress all that covered her body with a cream apron wrapped tightly around her waist..She had light make up on and her wavy hair was pulled up in a pony tail..All her life she wasn't used to such clothes which made her feel very uncomfortable especially with the fact that hungry ey
She turned around slowly saying a silent prayer. Her silver eyes fell on blue hazel orbs .. Slightly pointed nose.. Wavy brown hair and pink lipsHis tall frame 6'2 made her feel like a tiny dwarf and his cold stare made her almost jump out of her skin..She didn't know or remember him so she kept asking herself how he knew her full name..She had just had I'm discuss her father's death back there and that's the least information she had about himShe found her self looking back into his eyes..."I.. Do.. I know you?" She stuttered, her soft voice catching him off guard and pulling him out of his thoughts..He smirked at her words and took slow steps towards her expecting her to flinch or take steps backwards but she remained stillOn a serious thought she thought of being far away from him but her legs seemed to have mastered a heart of there own..
She sat leaning in to the black cushion allowing her hair to cover half of her face. It always made her feel like she was always hiding away from the world and it's claws..She fidgeted with her fingers on her lap in panic and nervousness.She had said so much to convince these men that she wasn't a spy but they thought it was all her acting..The room was silent.. A silence, so sharp to kill even a fly roaming around the space..Gaetano stared at this girl that sat in front of him, his insides battling on whether to believe her or let her go.."Please.." She whispered as another shiver went through her body. Now she was feeling more cold and mostly thankfully to her skimpy dress neither was the apron helping.Her pleading eyes full of sadness as she looked up at him..Marcos seemed to believe her words.."I think she's telling the truth Gaetano" his rough vo
Larissa shifted in bed. The little light that managed to pass through white decorated curtains illuminated the room.Her eyes flattered open as she wondered why Mia hadn't woke her up for the morning jogs. Her sleepy eyes roamed around the room making everything that happened yesterday fall in placeShe wasn't at home in her new bed just as she had thought. Sitting up abruptly the pain passed through her body and stupidly she smiled..The pain showed her that she was still alive and not murdered by two business men in black suits.As she moved over to get off the bed the door flew open and young girl in a blue uniform walked in.She held a tray of break fast with a small shopping bag flashing Larissa a smile.She placed the tray on a bedside table and placed the small shopping bag on bed."Good morning ma'am" she greeted as Rissa smiled back at her
Gaetano followed the lady in a black pencil skirt and a cream long sleeved shirt.His black long coat sat perfectly on his black suit and his hands lost in his coat pockets.Marcos had the same look like coat on and a serious cold look on his face while he looked around the place.Gianni heard agreed to join them since he hadn't left Russia yet. They walked in to the casino and he looked around.He liked the idea and way of arrangement the Russians had.Vasiliev placed the cards on the table as a girl whispered in his ear. He looked up towards Gaetano Marcos and Gianni Di Martino.A smirk crept to his face. He couldn't believe that Gaetano had honoured there proposal.He turned to Alexeev who shook his head in understanding before looking up.Marcos found the place intimidating and neither were his trust veins working th
"I don't know Mia.. But we need a new apartment where Sergio can't find me" she added taking a seat on a bench in the staff room. Sad ness had filled her voice by the momentMia placed her make up kit in the bag and looked at her sadly. " I wish you told me early about Sergio..we would have figured something out earlier or I think"It was more of a fear to both of them.They had ran out of ideas though she knew Sergio would never leave her alone to breath..She stood off the bench and looked at Mia " we're five minutes late for work" she said eyeing the wall clock trying to erase the tension around and Mia nodded not knowing what to say then they both walked out before splitting up.She walked over to the counter and smiled at Roche who was mixing drinks at least finally she could remember his name..He looked up at her and a smile formed on his lips too while he handed her a tray and
The door burst open and Gianni walked in with two files. His eyes fell on a young beautiful girl sitting on his bosses lap.She wasn't like the usual ones.. Beautiful and innocent making him smirk.Was Gaetano after waiters nowLarissa tried standing up but his grip on her tightened keeping her down. She looked up at him but Gaetano just smirked."I didn't know you were dating waiters now" Gianni asked as he sat on a chair facing Gaetano's office chair and he turned around to face the two.Larissa felt her cheeks turn deep shades of red and she opened her lips to reply to that and tell him that it's not what it seems but he beat her to it making her stare at down at her laps."She's a special one" she knew by now she was all red."Details??" He added making Gianni look at the girl then back at Gaetano who nodded for him to continue.He didn't know why b
"We meet soon Conzalato " Sergio said and turned around with men getting in to carsThough she had said threatening words but deep inside she still held the fear. She couldn't help the tears as the gun slipped out of her hands landing on the floor with a loud sound.She felt the rushing of blood making her vision blur and every where spinning."Rissa.. " She heard Mia's voice but it felt like it was far away like it was being muffled by the wind as she lost it landing on the floor."Rissa wake up please" Mia said kneeling right beside her friend. She had finally managed to get out but apparently she was late.Gaetano carried Larissa away from her and she stayed on the floors with tears in her eyes.. Was Mia failing her brother??Gianni placed a coat on top of her lingerie making her look up at him.When his blue eyes met with her brown orbs the same tingling feeling he al
The red and white candles lit up the darkness of the room slowly creating a mixture of light and dark on the walls that gave away the romantic vibe. Her heart pumped faster in her chest as his fingers came in contact with the skin on her arms sending a shiver down her spine. She stared at him, her hair covering half of her face as his fingers pushed the strap of her red night dress down her arm. "Gaetano " She whispered but he didn't bother looking at her face "Hmm" he replied his hands moving up back to the skin of her neck enticing light sensations within her. She grabbed his face in her small arms making him turn to look directly in her eyes. His blue eyes came in contact with her silver ones that were almost covered by her wild hair. "What is all this about?" She questioned and he looked around at the candles placed on the tables in the room then at her face. "It's just
Her brown fur boots came in contact with tarmac floors below as she stepped out of the car, her heart pumped in her chest as feeling of emptiness filled her heart. Her watery silver eyes looked at every inch of the brown gold painted mansion in front of her.Her home stared back at her, Stephanie and Mia came and stood by her side so was Federico. She took a few steps towards the main door, Every thing seemed okay. Her father's men still stood on duty bowing there heads her way in respect. It appeared that Uncle Franco was doing good in handling the empireEvery thing felt a bit foreign, As she was about to reach the main door it was thrown open making her freeze in her steps. The older man with slightly disorganized wavy dark brown hair and blue hazel eyes stared back at her. Her black jeans bringing out every curve of her lower body tagged along with a beautiful black big Gaetano T-shirt.A smile hinting on her lips as she
Gaetano placed back his phone in his pockets as they approached the giant doors of the main hall where the party was held. He grabbed his gun and realised the safety before pushing the doors open. No one seemed to notice them until three of his men stepped up there guns lifted up and pointed to the crowd.His men stepped out of the shadows with the safety of there guns realised in case any one did something stupid that moment. The party went silent, a few glasses landed on the floor in shock and a few smiles changed in to fear and worry mixed with confusionAveline pushed someone out of the crowd, raising her gun and hit her so hard on the head that she landed on the floor in front of Gaetano. He squat down at her level and grabbed her by her black hair roughly making her look up in his cold blue eyes.As from the beginning his respect for women could never be erased but bitches like her, he never thought twice before blowing their brain
Her heart beat faster in her chest and her hand moved over to her stomach, was she pregnant, is that what he meant. She unbuttoned the lower buttons of Gaetano's shirt and removed it. Her hands held it tightly as she pulled it to her nose then sniffed softly,A smile found it's way on her lips. She placed it on the sink and started to clean up herself.*****The car parked 10Meters away from their destination. Gaetano stared at Gianni as four other cars parked behind his, Aveline continued loading the guns fully that were placed in a big bag that lied on the car carpet in between her legs.Geatano and Gianni opened there car doors to there side and stepped out, Marco did the same and So was Aveline as she pulled the bag out and closed the door then walked over to the side where her bosses were leaning on car.Every one followed getting out of there cars led by Andrea."I found a beautiful princess last night in the mid
He stared at her, by now she wasn't sobbing anymore but looking up at the ceiling though her tears couldn't stop falling down her eyes, it's like she had more to say but didn't know how."Treasure " he whispered and she turned her head in his direction looking direct in his eyes from where he sat staring down at her." why do you call me that?" She whispered and he smirked. To be sincere he didn't expect such a question from her especially at this moment.He leaned closed to her face and without warning he placed his lips on hers, she brought her arms around his neck pulling him to her. He pulled away just not far, her hands were still locked behind his neck.He raised his eyes from her lips to her eyes that held sadness." I was afraid to love again cause all the girls around me no one could fit in my late wife's shoes but you" he placed a kiss on her nose and her eyes closed automatically. He stared at her
His hand was wrapped around her waist as he slept soundly, in the midsts of darkness. Her eyes slowly opened only to come face to face with the darkness. The sound of a heart monitor starting to irritate her with each beep.One thing she hated all her life were needles and seeing that she had a cannula in her hand made her feel like she had to remove it soon or later. Her eyes looked around the room wondering where she was, all she could remember to see last was Gaetano's eyes."Gaetano" she whispered, her throat ached and her voice was more hoarse and rough than usual.A soft snore pulled her attention towards her left and her heart beat increased, Gaetano was sleeping soundly next to her. Having turned her face to the left only there was only a few countable inches from his, Her silver eyes outlined every each of his face and she managed to smile.She brought her face closer then looked up at his closed eye
His eyes moved over to the hand that was wrapped around his wrist, making him turn around so fast only to come face on face with a still sleeping beauty. His heart crashed, he expected to see her at least looking up at him but not at all yet.He felt his heart hurt and shattering with all the hopes of this moment. His other hand moved over to her touch and carefully unwrapped her fingers from around his wrist.He held her soft fingers and knelt down next to the bed, placing his other hand on top of hers and stared at her.He heard lots to say but somehow they seemed stuck somewhere deep in his throat. He pushed the strands of hair out of her face, and laid her hand on his side carefully before standing up back on his feet.A knock came on the door and that grabbed his attention, he buried his hands deep in his pocket and stared at the door which was being opened slowly."Aveline " he whispered as she p
He walked in to his room with his sister trailing behind, not even once did his eyes leave her face through the whole journey. He placed her on the bed carefully cause at this moment in his eyes she was like a beautiful piece of glass.Stephanie sat on the other side of the bed with the first aid kit that she managed to get from her room after seeing her brother get out of the car with Larissa. She placed the kit on the bed and stood up again " I will go call the doctor" she whispered but Gaetano didn't even seem to have heard her and she understood.He just kept staring at Larissa, he wasn't thinking anymore but kept waiting for her to open her beautiful silver eyes and look at him lovingly. He was waiting for her to wake up and whisper his name, he just loved the way it rolled off her tongue exposing her accent." You love her, don't you?" Stephanie asked from the doorway, he didn't even bother to turn back and see his baby
Larissa tried to wiggle her hands free from Sergio's tight grip, she turned her face away so he could only hit the side of her face. "You bitch" he roared throwing another punch only to be elbowed on the side of his stomachHe hadn't noticed that she had wiggled one of her hands free and this caught him off guard. She raised her leg again and kneed him so hard that a loud groan erupted from deep in his throat."There are many other parts on my body " he said but little did she care in such a situation "She turned around getting on her fours and started crawling towards the gun, she could taste her blood in her mouth which was open slightly to help her breath.Her hand moved over to her nose trying to rub the blood from there also away only to feel a tight grip on her ankle making her scream and try to kick at him again.She kicked again numerous turns hitting his nose until she felt his grip on her le
