Elegantly Wasted Chapter 36
Edwina The next morning I woke up with a pounding headache Krys was sound asleep next to me glad she stayed the night with me. "Krys, "I groan trying to shift some of her weight next to me as she murmurs, "Shut up" "Fuck my head hurts, "I murmur out massaging my throbbing temples as Krys slowly drifts off back to sleep. I sigh out my body feeling like it has been hit by a truck as I cover my eyes with my left arm trying to relax for a few minutes. "Krys wake up, "I murmur to my now dead asleep best friend who just snuggles deeper into the sheets. "You cannot be serious," I huff out frustratedly as I get out of bed to go get a glass of water and whatever the hell it is that would down my headache. The penthouse remains rather quiet and lonely with no one in sight as I make it into the kitchen trying not to think of Raffaele. Speaking of the man, I am surprised that he did not storm over here to drag me back to the compound after Krys told him that I was not coming back well at

Edwina One and a half weeks have gone by with me drowning myself in my work and barely having the time to think about how Raffaele and I left things. I have gone back to the office like in old times Alexxis was quite glad to see me after explaining to her everything that happened. Raffaele as promised kept his men at a distance as I continued to go on with my life like old times. Krys continued to check up on me to make sure I was okay and as for Gen well she and I were still working on our sister-to-sister relationship which these past few days seem to have gotten much better. She is still very reluctant to meet her abuela claiming she still needs more time before reuniting with other family members. I have managed to respect her decision seemingly allowing her to see me on the days that I am free to spare for her. Alessandro has been frequently calling in between the week asking when I am coming back and how things at the house were getting quite intense since Raffaele had compl

Edwina Alessandro and I walk toward the manor as I try to steady my breath and calm my panic with every step I take. We get in and this place no longer seems the same the environment is quite chilly not forgetting the broken pieces of glass that litter the floor. "What happened here?"I whisper out puzzled at how much of a mess this place is. "Raffaele happened, "sighs out Alessandro closing his eyes in sadness and frustration. The house is dead silent no one in sight as Alessandro says, "He is in his office princess. Would you like me to accompany you?" I shake my head saying, "No" knowing that I can do it on my own and face the beast who carries my heart in his palms. I release a shaky breath walking to Raffaele's office and upon reaching the door I hear the sound of glass smashing followed by the scrape of a chair moving before it smashes against the door breaking into pieces as I jump in fright. I take a few minutes to calm my racing heart as I push the office door open. Th

Edwina Immediately I step foot into Raffaele's office I see him sitting behind his desk his eyes trailing up my body to meet mine as I ignore the sparks of pleasure that run through me. I notice that the office is arranged all havoc from last night is removed and the office looks clean as usual the foul smell of alcohol and drugs no longer in the air. "How are you feeling?" comes his deep velvety voice as I remain standing at the door afraid to take any step further. "Much better thanks, "I say awkwardly as I shift my weight on both my feet. Raffaele leans back in his seat a scowl making its way onto his face as he says, "I do not bite Tesoro you can come closer. I do not like you being that far away from me when we are conversing." I slowly approach his desk standing in front of it not daring to meet his piercing gaze as he sighs out, "Come here" I shake my head at him not wanting to be too close to him or else I will not be able to think clearly. I notice the way he clenches

Edwina I sigh feeling Raffaele's lips peppering kisses over my face stirring me from my sleep. Slowly blinking my eyes open I find myself gazing into his beautiful green irises. I offer him a small smile gently caressing his jaw his stubble tickling my palm. My fingers further move up skimming his soft lips as I admire the man who gazes back at me. "You need to shave, "I mumble out my voice rough with sleep. "Good morning Amore Mio," he says his voice hoarse from waking up as he kisses my lips lightly savouring my warmth. My heart flutters at him calling me my love in Italian wishing that he would keep repeating it. "Good morning, "I smile enjoying waking up in his arms. I sigh out in contentment my hands gently running up and down his bareback feeling his toned muscles flex under my touch. "I could get used to this. Us waking up next to each other, "I tell him enjoying the sight of waking up to his beautiful green orbs and relaxed form. "Me too. I missed this," He groans out di

Edwina I end up going to the office and spending my whole day there and that is after Gen and I were done with our breakfast. Of course, in between my working hours, Raffaele called to check in with me and find out how everything is going. I end up mentioning the dinner with my parents to him which he seems quite okay with and I admit that I am quite nervous about what my parents will say when they meet him for the first time. Now I am back at the house and night has already set in as I climb up the stairs to get dressed and ready waiting for Raffaele to join me in between so that we can leave and not be late. As I am just about to get into our room I spot Giovanni in a distance and when he notices me his face hardens his eyes looking anywhere else but mine avoiding me. "Why are you avoiding me?"I ask him clearly hurt that he has become more cold and distant ever since the night he took me to see my sister. Giovanni stops in his tracks clenching his fists by his side as if restrai

Edwina "Mom," I whisper out coming face to face with her and I must admit that being away for a few years has changed how my mother looks because the woman standing in front of Raffaele and I appears much different than I can remember her. Her shapely figure is dressed in a long red off-shoulder dress which leaves room to expose her glossy skin. Her ebony black hair plunges over her shoulders as her saccharine sweet lips which appear to be blossom soft lift up in a gentle smile. Her radiating brown sun-warmed hazel eyes with inner gold stare back at me taking in my presence. She expresses her outfit with inexpensive jewellery, those touches of female grace speaking of her confidence and elegant personality. The woman who stands before me appears quite younger and happier than I remember which is a total shock to me since after Gen's death she was a complete mess. She looks more radiant her skin glowing like she is no longer a slave to the problems of this world. "Don't just stand t

Edwina "What did you just say?" asks my mother her face going pale like she has seen a ghost. "No, it can't be, "whisper yells Abuela clearly in shock the environment suddenly feeling cold as ice. "Our daughter died almost fifteen years ago so what kind of bullshit is this your trying to tell us," yells my father his fists banging on the table causing me to jump in fright. It is the angriest I have ever seen him since he has always managed to control his emotions especially when She is angry. "Is this true Edwina?" asks my mother her voice breaking at the end all eyes are now on me as I glance at Gen who has tears welling up in her eyes. I hesitate not wanting to spread the wildfire that has already started Raffaele grips my thigh a bit tighter under the table saying, "You do not have to answer if you do not feel comfortable Tesoro." "Hermosa is it true," comes abuela's broken voice and it breaks my heart seeing her like this. "How about we give Geneva a chance to speak for he

Raffaele Something seems to be disturbing my Tesoro and knowing her I know that she is too stubborn to tell me unless she is ready to talk about it. I cannot help but shake off the feeling that she is hiding something from me and does not want me to find out probably the reason why she has been acting all strange ever since we landed in Italy. One thing about me is that I have been trained to read emotions and feelings and I can tell when someone is lying to me about something she has been doing to me for the past few weeks but I have done my best not to seem bothered while deep inside I feel quite livid. I love Edwina but lying is where I draw the line when it comes to having a relationship with someone and as much as I want to act oblivious to her actions I can't help that feeling in my gut that is telling me that she is indeed hiding something from me. I close the door to our room and make my way down to my office to go through some work calling Gio to join me for a little chat.

Edwina Tonight is the night. I will have my driver on standby waiting to take to to the airport and make sure to keep Raffaele away from this or someone will die tonight Bellissima. Make sure to do as you are told to avoid someone's blood being on your hands. xx yours truly. Immediately after I read the message on my screen my blood runs cold knowing that tonight is the night I will be leaving Raffaele to protect him and his men. I try my best to regulate my breathing not wanting to have a full-blown full-blowback with Raffaele just a few steps away from me in the shower with no clue in the world to what is going on. "Hey, are you okay?" comes Raffaele's voice drawing my attention far away from my phone screen to see him standing and already dressed as he buttons up his dress shirt. "Yeah, "I force out shutting off my phone screen and tossing my phone away to avoid any suspicions. One thing I have learned from this lifestyle is the art of hiding my emotions to avoid any suspicio

EdwinaI remain frozen on the spot my eyes meeting Raffaele's darkened gaze as he winces in the process clutching onto his shirt which seeps blood."Cosa è successo?"yells Eleanora her face morphing into a giant frown as she makes her way son who leans against the counter with Giovanni to his left and Rodriguez to his right."I'm fine madre,"grunts out Raffaele clearly in pain as Eleanora genlty kisses his forehead his green orbs never leaving mine."Thank God you are here the man is as stubborn as they come princessa and only you will be able to help him clean up since he does not want anyone next to him,"comes Alessandro's voice from beside me making my gaze shift from Raffaele to him.I nod my head in response no words being able to leave my mouth as I slowly walk up to Raffaele who stares at me a slight frown on his face. I notice the way Gio nods his head in reassurance as I gently take Raffaele's hand in mine."How about I get you cleaned up,"I tell him softly all eyes on our li

Edwina Immediately I head out of Raffaele's office I make my way across the house holding my new phone box in my hand. I shake my head in amusement chuckling at how Raffaele loves to spend money on me without a doubt not realizing that Vincenzo is standing right across from me. "Should I be worried that you are laughing by yourself?" he asks amusement shining in his eyes. "Maybe, "I tell him a smirk making its way onto my lips. Vincenzo just smiles at me in amusement making his way around me to head wherever he is going. "Where are you going?"I ask him curious to know where he is headed. "Just headed out to sort out some business," he says not giving me room to respond as he walks further away. I make my way to Raffaele's room where I sit on the bed thinking about what Raffaele's phone call could be about since he was quick to mention that it was nothing when I asked him. "Damn I need to find something to do today, "I murmur to myself sighing in the process when my thoughts ar

Raffaele Immediately the question leaves my mouth, I observe and notice the way Edwina's body freezes her eyes flashing with slight panic before she quickly composes herself. I try not to read deep into it considering how of late I have made her think I do not trust her while in a real sense it is quite, in fact, the opposite. I trust her with my life and the last thing I would want is to draw us further apart and push her away. "Come here, "I tell her softly my piercing gaze matching hers and she hesitantly walks towards me standing a couple of steps away from me. "Closer Tesoro, "I say my voice going an octave deeper not liking the small distance between us. She does as I say stepping closer to me and I am quick to pull her into my lap her legs straddling me. Her sweet lilac scent fills my senses and I almost go crazy burying my face into her neck and pulling her closer to my body her scent slowly calms my racing nerves. "You smell divine Tesoro, "I growl out gently peppering

Edwina We sit in silence tension filling the air after Raffaele speaks my body filling with slight rage at his ability to suspect that I am being untruthful to him. "Why do I feel like you are suspecting me to be a liar?"I ask rather defensively suddenly not wanting to be in his presence. "I am not Tesoro where is this even coming from?" asks Raffaele his eyebrows furrowing in total confusion at my question. "Yes, you are. It's like ever since I went out with your sisters to the mall you suspect I am hiding something from you?!"I yell my last thread of restraint snapping in half as I take a step away from him causing him to clench his fists at his side. "Are you hiding something from me Tesoro?" he asks his voice laced with venom that I barely recognize the man standing in front of me. I cannot stop the hurt that passes through me at his question which confirms my thoughts that the man indeed has his doubts that I am hiding something from him. "No I am not hiding something from

Edwina I stand infront of our bedroom mirror admiring the way the red gown hugs my body showing off my hour glass figure my hair straightened which is kind of new since it is always curly and bouncing off my shouders. My fingers come up to toy with the necklace that sits on my neck as the door to our bedroom opens revealing a dressed up Raffaele. Our eyes connect through the mirror as he makes his way up to me his arms going around my waist pulling me back into his chest as I admire how handsome he looks in his black suit. "You look beautiful Tesoro,"he says admiration in his eyes causing my heart to flutter at his compliment. "Thank you,"I blush out suddenly feeling a bit hot and bothered under his intense gaze. Raffaele is quick to turn me around in his arms causing me to squeal in surprise as he pulls me closer to him his strong cologne invading my senses. I notice the way he has shaved his beard giving him a dangerous sexy look and I cannot help but feel proud to call him my m

Edwina The next morning I wake up and Raffaele is nowhere to be seen in bed his side of the bed is quite cold a sign that he was probably up quite early. I sighed taking a few minutes to myself thinking how I am going to be able to pull off leaving with Mariano's men without anyone in this house knowing. I notice one of Raffaele's shirts on the other end of the bed as I pick it up and wear it. I am startled by the sound of my phone ringing as I roll over to pick it up the sound of Krys angry voice being heard. "Tell me why the fuck you went to Italy without telling me goodbye," yells a not-so-pleased Krys through the phone. "Well hello to you too, "I grumble out not enjoying the sound of her loud voice in the morning, or at least I think I don't. "Edwina, "scowls Krys and I can tell that her patience is slowly running out. "Someone broke into the manor, "I sigh out rubbing my temples. "Oh my god! Are you okay?" asks Krys frantically her voice laced in worry. "Well other than t
