Nicolas and I also made our way out of the mall. His car was parked in front of the parking lot so we walked outside of the parking area. He was ignoring me like I was a stranger. The whole area was decorated fascinatingly. I looked around and saw many street food shops and many people were enjoying the winter evening and trying street foods. My best friends and I used to run toward street food shops after shopping. Then I felt my stomach growl in hunger. Crap. I wanted to try Italian street foods and that's why I tucked Nicolas's shirt. "What?" He frowned. "I'm hungry and I want to try some Italian street foods," I murmured looking at him. I was sure I was looking like a seven-year-old girl asking her daddy to buy her a doll. "No. They're not hygienic." He shook his head and opened the passenger seat for me to enter. "Since when you became a doctor." I scoffed. "I'm not a doctor but that doesn't mean I'm illiterate. I studied psychology so I've enough knowledge of what's
The whole way back home was silent. Neither he nor I uttered a word but the silence wasn't awkward. I wanted to ask him some questions about my family but I didn't bother to ruin his mood plus I was so exhausted and my muscles were aching a bit. "Where are you going?" I frowned when I noticed he made his way to the third floor where the indoor swimming pool and the gym were. "To take a warm bubble bath. Feel free to join." He smirked and walked away. I just ignored him and entered the bedroom, throwing my body on the bed I thought about his offer. A warm bubble bath wouldn't be that bad. I quickly got up and made my way to the closet and changed into a baby pink color bikini set. Throwing a robe over my body, I made my way to the third floor. When I entered the room where the swimming pool was, my eyes popped out of their sockets. The room was warm and smelled like cinnamon and rose. I slowly removed the robe from my body and made my way to the pool. The streamy pool water was
Nicolas' Pov :I looked at the girl sleeping peacefully in my arms whom I claimed as mine forcefully. I checked my phone and it was six in the morning, so I slept for four hours.I couldn't take off my eyes from the sleeping beauty in my arms. Her long black lashes were touching her cheekbones. Her pink lips were parted slightly and her breathing was so soft. I brushed her lower lips with my thumb and that made her frown and narrow her lips.A smile tugged on my lips at her cuteness. She's so cute, so perfect.I brushed off the soft silky hair from the side of her soft face, and God, I like her hair. Everything about her was magical, bewitching, and enchanting. When I looked at her neck, a sinister smirk tugged on my lips, seeing the deep red and purple bruises that I gave her last night. Her body was submissive at my touch but she was too stubborn to admit that. She looked happy with Bel and Eva last night, maybe I should give her a little freedom. She even loved the street foods
I groaned as the sun rays fell on my face, peeping through the large window curtains and bird's chirping sound ringing inside my ears. Adjusting my eyes to the lights, I slowly got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom. After brushing my teeth and taking a warm long shower, I made my way downstairs, to the kitchen for lunch. "Good morning, amore." Rosetta smiled teasingly. "It's not morning, Rosetta." I rolled my eyes and sat on the kitchen counter. "Don't make it a habit. Go to the table and finish the lunch." Rosetta put her hands on her hips and glared at me. "Well, it's too late. It's become a habit already." I pouted then started eating the spaghetti Rosetta had made. "Mmm. It's delicious. Will you teach me some Italian dishes?" I hummed and raised my thumb, earning a smile from Rosetta. "Sure, why not? From when do you want to start?" Her eyes lit up. "From tomorrow? I guess." I placed my index finger on my chin and replied. "Okay, belle." She giggled. "Rose, do
I lazily got up and made my way to the bathroom. After washing my face and putting on some natural make-up, I made my way to the closet. I threw myself into a pair of black jeans and a black crop top. Grabbing my jacket, I ran downstairs. Bella and Eva were already downstairs with my luggage. "So, how many days are we going for?" I asked them while putting on my jacket. "We don't know. The men know." Eva replied. I was about to ask something when I heard several cars stop in front of the house. A few moments later Stephen and Victor entered the house. "You girls ready?" Stephen asked to look at us. "Yeah, we're ready!" Eva and Bella cheered and motioned me to walk with them. I just chuckled and shook my head and started walking with them. Victor and Stephen took our luggage and walked behind us. When I walked out, my mouth and eyes went wide. All the criminals were standing there with three cars and blabbering. So they all were going with us. No, we're going with them. Nice.
About one hour later, the car stopped in front of a villa. I was sleeping the whole ride though it took only an hour to reach the villa. The area was so beautiful and peaceful. Bracciano was full of small hills and there was a big volcanic lake beside the town. The most breathtaking views from the villa were the volcanic lake and the small hills. "Wow! It's beautiful, Nick!" I gasped. I almost forgot that I called Nicolas by his nickname due to over-excitement. When I realized that I blushed hard and Nicolas seemed to stop for a moment. "Yes, this place is beautiful. Especially the lake." He nodded and grabbed our luggage to carry them inside the house. He ignored the fact that I called him 'Nick'. And I was so confused about his sudden calm behavior. The previous Nicolas would hit me a thousand times this week but this Nicolas was an opposite person like a lion without rage. The villa seemed very elegant and cozy. When we entered the living area, I saw Victor, Stephen, Marian
Taking a quick warm shower, I lay on the bed thinking about what Nicolas said. 'If I submit myself to him, will he really let me go? ' I thought. 'No, it could be one of his plans.' I frowned mentally. Then suddenly the bedroom door burst open and Bella and Eva entered the room. Bella was wearing jeans shorts and a thin strap top that was showing half of her breast with a short jeans jacket. Eva was wearing a white short-sleeved dress that perfectly showed her cleavage and a short red jacket on it. "What the hell? Are you still lying like a lazy cat? Get up quickly, Ms. Porcelain Doll!" Bella scoffed, placing his hands on his hips. "What? Why should I get up?" I narrowed my face and glared at her. "God, did you forget about the party? It's already 7! We thought Nick was gonna take you with him but you never showed up. Now quickly get up and change." Eva pointed. The two weird assassins unzipped my luggage and pulled out a brown sexy short dress. "I'm not wearing this! It's co
I straightened myself and looked around, pretending like I never saw him standing there. Alexander and Mariano were drunk as they were blabbering and arguing over nothing but an empty whiskey bottle, so Bella and John took them inside the house. "How's Ellerie?" I murmured to Stephen. He didn't seem surprised. "He's fine but asks about you every day." He blew a long sigh. "Granny, is she okay?" I turned to him and asked in a broken tone. "God, I wonder how she blabbers all day. Our guards were complaining that she kept blabbering some quotes and trying to teach them how to be a gentleman." Stephen laughed. "She's still like that. She was on a mission to make my two best friends polite, punctual, and modest." I giggled. Suddenly Stephen's phone buzzed. He smirked at the caller ID and turned to me. "It's already 11. I think I should freshen up and take a nap. Enjoy." He smirked and looked in the direction where Nicolas was standing. I frowned in confusion as he
