AngeloOur family is a well connected family and we have contacts everywhere. It comes with the business and how the territory. I know for a fact that; my ex wants my girl and he is going to stop at nothing to make sure that happens. After talking to Marc I called Nicolai to pull up everything with regards to Marc and Cleo's relationship, and any property out of town that Cleo might own besides; her apartment and half of the house at the estate .Within half an hour he gave me everything including the small town Cleo was headed to. I had initially gotten back to work and done most of what needed to be done, when the mail came through , I went called our pilot to fuel the jet and get me a car that can get me to the small town Cleo was headed too. I also knew she loved roses ; so I had them sent to Daniela's grave, and ordered short stem red and white roses which I kept for Cleo as soon as she would show up. She doesn't ever miss mass on August fifteenth. I knew this because she makes las
CleoI should have just stayed home. I keep thinking if I had just stayed home ; Angelo wouldn't have come after me . I cannot believe Rosa. She has a mental condition , but that doesn't excuse her going to extreme lengths to keep me away from her son, who wants to Mary me . I kept on thinking if my skin color was different would she be this hostile towards me? I am the mother of her grandchildren for crying out loud, and she isn't all that perfect . When she pulled the trigger with the same gun she shot me with when I went to go see Giovani ; an innocent soul was caught in the crossfire. I hate being the bearer of bad news especially on a cursed day. It is a cursed day because I can't seem to get a break on this day. I was fine with Marc not wanting to know anything about where our baby girl was buried, but it seemed as if fate and God had other plans. The church was right across the hospital meaning if I called Marc he would be here He would want to know what the hell was I doing in
Angelo Unexpected Guilt The last place I expected to be was where I am right now. I cannot believe what my mother did. I may not be his first born but I am her flesh and blood. Just because she doesn't like the woman I am with; doesn't mean she could do what she just did... I never fret or worry about anything because I know that my father will always bail me out. He has been unreachable; however I won't stay in this holding cell forever. The longest they can keep me is a day or longer if they have something concrete. I am still shook that my mother would bring up something I did, when I thought I had killed her but she was fine. All this time I had been living in guilt meanwhile she was playing mommy to Paul. The fact that I am not her favorite is a hard pill to swallow. I think Rachel was more of a mother to me than she ever was. I mean all this time Paul knew , but he said nothing. The police arrested me because the family jet had narcotics that were illegal . I had everything ch
CleoThere is only so much one can take. With all the crazy I have been through , and emotional rollercoaster that never seems to end because of Rosa , and Angelo getting arrested. The last thing I needed was the two men I care about; one who I love with my whole heart , and one who was a friend getting into a fight. If it wasn't for Bruno coming in and stopping the fight I would have seriously gotten hurt.Angelo has a temper on him. When Paul came in Angelo let go of me and stood up, and so did I, to go and retrieve my bag at the far end of the couch .Paul had seen my tear stained face and he pinned Angelo against the wall telling h
AngeloI am thankful I am thankful to the universe for sending Cleo my way . With everything that has been happening I doubt that she remembers that today is our one year anniversary. The flight back home was quiet...Reason being I fell asleep on Cleo's lap. We were talking one moment , and the next thing I knew I had hit lights out . I was gently woken up by Cleo when we landed. I needed to stay awake for the surprise I had planned. The airport was just about thirty minutes away from the Estate , but I wanted to freshen up before I went back home. We had a hotel suite near the airport. I used to use it as a place where I can do stuff and not have to answer to anyone. That was a lifetime ago when I was using. Right now I am clean and I know what I stand to lose if I mess up . As soon as we were done cleaning up I stepped out for a bit to make sure Gia had everything ready. Cleo was inside making calls with regards to the deal she made with Salvatore. I hate the fact that she had to ma
Cleo There are many things that can make me lose my temper or throw things around . I rarely lose my temper; when that happens I usually vent directly and indirectly . I was so livid at Angelo when we decided to stop by his suite that turned out to be a sexy time suite .He had hidden most of his stuff behind the towel cabinet . I didn't deliberately look for his toys and accessories ; I had spilt my orange juice knocking my bowl of granola in the process and made a mess . That wasn't the only mess I made . When I found Angelo's stash , I kind of went crazy. I started swearing; throwing out his boxes of condoms , mind you not one , not two but a couple . I swear if we had made love at his suite the night he came knocking at my door after I got fired we would have never ran out of condoms . I also flashed back to the time he hate fucked me . If he decided to come here to do it maybe I wouldn't have gotten pregnant . Don't get me wrong I am thankful for the way things turned out and I l
Angelo Nothing in the whole world beats being with Cleo.I want to marry her and I want everyone there. The last time I wanted to pop the question , I got shot and my mother blamed Cleo for the accident caused by Duncan. I had forgotten her but my heart knew her.My mother put Cleo through hell, and I didn't see it at first , but I caught her twice. I wanted to propose to her last night but we ended up spending time with the family. She didn't go to the attick and I wanted to keep it that way. I had fairy lights hung from the ceiling shaped like clusters of stars ; set up an indoor picnic and a music list. Past experience has taught me that Cleo doesn't like crowds. When I asked her to marry me last year ; I was surprising her with our house, and I went big by inviting all our friends. She didn't seem like herself when I did that. She was quite shy to be honest. Meaning she didn't want to tell me how she truly felt. I indirectly ambushed her and didn't give her a chance to digest prop
CleoI've really had a long day and all I want to do is just rest ; but I can't until I Angelo why I have been missing in action for half of the weekend. I miss him; the twins and everyone else. I hadn't told him about the date with Salvatore. My reasoning behind that was that he would have stopped me and from what I know the Luca's always collect what's due to them on time. I am not an object ; I was caught between a rock and a hard place when I made the deal with Salvatore. He had agreed to help me and I was happy he did. The date was scheduled for this morning and he had warned me that I'd be out of range for most of the trip . There was no network reception at the location, he flew us to with his chopper to an ocean resort that had water sports. He had planned activities that only had to do with water . This guy pretty much does everything under the sun. We started the morning with a hike along the river; then we went river rafting , jet skeing, in-between that we had brunch , a bo
Cleo There is always something calming, cleansing, rejuvenating, and healing about water. The ocean has always been a place of refuge for me , besides church. I feel safe cared for and loved . I have also come to the realization that I am engaged to a man, who has past issues he has to deal with. I didn’t understand why Angelo’s mother wouldn’t want him to be happy ,and be with who he wants to be with. Mistakes happen. I also think Blue killing his cousin was an accident. After he told me what he told me I gave him time to calm down. I do know that he didn’t mean to shoot, and kill his mother’s last living relative. I didn’t get what his nightmares were about , but now I do. Lawrence is the guy who keeps on feeding on his fears on a subconscious level. When he finally said what he needed to say and let go I saw a side of him that I knew existed . The sweet caring guy I loved was back and I couldn’t be more happier. The twins just love being with my brother they are happy
Angelo Braxton Hicks… I didn’t know anything about it , until Cleo happened. To be honest when Nina was pregnant with Gio ; I was absent … until the birth and the lie I refused to believe when I was told Giovanni wasn’t mine. I have a fear that has haunted me for years. I wasn’t on edge or “weak” . I used to be strong. Something happened to me and I guess it affected my mother more than it affected me. She has no reason to hate Cleopatra or my kids. I am thankful that Cleo is okay ,and another thing I am thankful for is that I get to spend time with her. I have been working from the resort. If ot means staying with Cleo and the twins in a remote area in the country , that is not even locatable on the gps… then yes I am staying. It was already Wednesday and by this time in the week Cleo is done with everything regarding Client lists and shipments. Even scheduled posts. Last night Daniel and Izzy came through for dinner and the twins loved them . I wanted to tuck in Pio but he
Cleo I don't know what happened one minute I was talking to Blue, and the next it felt like I was in labour. The last time I felt like this was a couple of months before I gave birth . This pain however felt severe . It was sharp and it also had me worried. Daniel was a doctor by profession . When I looked at Angelo he too also looked afraid as I felt. He didn't cry in front of people but he was close to tears . The resort had a hospital inside. It was a thirty minute drive from where we were. I knew the twins were well taken care of. I was worried about our baby. Angelo was in confession mode the whole ride . He told me that he was eves dropping and he was just making sure his ex wouldn't seduce me . On the other hand I was all emotional and I was crying . As soon as we went into the maternity ward a full check up was done. When Dan stepped out to go get my results Angelo came in looking all sorts of worried. He sat beside me and gave me a hug. I hugged him back and took a deep breat
Angelo As a kid I used to love dinner parties; because I used to take alcohol, not steal because I drank with Luigi. We were and still are partners in crime. Even though we fought and still fight , we are two peas in a pod. On Thursday night dinner was awesome. The even had non- alcoholic wine. My shock wasn't as severe as before when I saw Daniel, and spoke to him. He looked like the male version of Cleo who I was still missing so badly . There was another dinner on Friday night and I didn't feel like going . Luigi talked me into going and he even gave me his suit. He was Daniel's half brother . I had to wrap my head around the bomb he dropped and I had only agreed to go to the dinner party , on condition I wasn't going to be left alone, because there was alcohol and my demons were itching to come out and play. The thing addiction is that you can't really get it out of your system . Addiction replaces addiction. When I had a talk with Daniel he asked me ; if Cleo was my drug? After
CleoThis has been the longest two weeks I've ever had. The kids seem to like it here because they fall asleep easily and they stick to their play schedule. Pio and Pia love my brother. When I went over to go fetch them , they didn't want to come back with me to the house . I have already met Romano who told me that I should work for him on a part time basis . I would be doing the same work I did at Massa but with more pay. I could still work for Massa and him at the same time. To be honest this is the first time in a while that; I could hear myself think clearly and feel at peace. I even asked myself if I really wanted to be with Angelo after what we've been through ...On Thursday night there was a dinner party and I didn't feel like going. Izzy convinced me to go to tonight's dinner and I was honestly feeling fat. We went shopping and I found a shift dress that was printed with flowers. The dress was black and the flowers were purple . It looked like the Iris's on the dress were pai
Two weeks laterIt's already October and by now I thought I; Cleo was going to have my last name, and I would make up for messing up with our first pregnancy. She already caught me out when we found out she was three months pregnant , when I indirectly insinuated that she was cheating on me . Even when I knew she would never do what Nina did. I woke up this morning feeling sad. I was now staying with my father and working from home. After Cleo called me I when I was at Carl's , she made sure I was okay and that I wasn't going to do anything stupid. If I was the old me I would have already been with another girl... I can't and I won't disrespect my relationship with Cleo. I love her and I don't want anybody else. Everything I do reminds me of her. She has been calling everyday to make sure I am okay, and keep me in the loop about what's going on with the kids...I even got to talk to Pio and Pia. As far as baby talk goes I am almost getting it. It took a a couple of days to wrap my hea
Cleo was there at the beach house ; but it was an underground tunnel system . As soon as we made it under ground, we came out the other side and there was a speed boat waiting for us . I could still hear gun shots going off in the distance and the only thing that mattered to me was the safety of my unborn baby. I didn’t want to stress or panic . I did as I was told by Daniel and he never left my side not even once . When we finally docked we went into a car and we were driven to a beach house property . The property looked familiar and my perception didn’t fail me. This was a Luca residential area . As soon as I was settled in what looked like a private beach house with ocean views that were breathtakingly beautiful because of the risen full moon I was given some Chai tea by one of the maids and my brother told me that he would be in the beach house next door to mine . I had a fully stocked kitchen with the option of going to the main house for breakfast ; lunch , and dinner and what
Angelo Missing the missing I seriously don't understand anything when things go wrong. For the past couple of months I have been through a lot. My fiancé is missing and I don't know where the hell she is . I want her back home with the kids.I sent a crew over to where we tracked her down and I am still waiting for a response. Fabio told me that he was baffled as to why they left Cleo with accessories on. I was driving inside the estate towards the house. I wanted to see my babies and assure them everything will be okay . When I arrived at the house ; the lights were on and the door looked like it was broken. My initial reaction was to call Carl because I cannot be attacked twice in one day. If you attack anyone I love you attack me and I always fight back and make sure the same thing doesn't happen again. I knew in my heart that Cleo was missing, but before I decide to fight; I needed to make sure that my kids were safe. Gia wasn't picking up her phone when I called on the way back
CleoDANIEL My head feels heavy; my tongue has lost the ability to move , and my voice the ability to speak. I am alive .... Thank God I am alive . I don't feel like I am tied up; but I am in a room that has ;no clock , no light , the air conditioning was on but I felt cold . I slowly opened my eyes and took in my surroundings . I was pretty sure I was kidnapped because Angelo's security isn't this brutal unless it's by instruction from Angelo himself. The shutters on the windows blocked any source of light so it felt like I was in a room that felt like a prison; but didn't seem like one . I really needed to go to the toilet because I needed to pee .With the twins my bump was already showing by the three months and I had nausea throughout my first and second trimester. I already miss my babies and Angelo. I have to find a way out of here .I wasn't tied up ,but the room had a four post bed ... and thank goodness I spotted the bathroom. on my way there I spotted my ring and pendant. I
