Chapter 22 Familia

2021-11-16 09:53:17Rosetta stared up at the two storey Villa that was her parents house; sophisticated, elegant, expensive, that was family.
She took a deep breathe then walked up the stairs and rang the bell when she got to the door.
The door opened immediately and her sister's smirking face stared down at her.
Bless herself for not being tall enough and forgetting to wear heels.
"And the runaway bird comes flying home. Nice to see you, Rosetta...oh, sister."
She smiled, two could play the game.
"Nice to see you too."
Crush stealing monster, she didn't add.
She was that close to hating her sister, Gabriella Oriana D'armani, very close. The only thing preventing her from doing so was the family bond.
She couldn't deny that Gabriella intimidated her. For one, Gabriella had extraordinary looks, her beauty entranced anyone who saw her especially the male folk; two, Gabriella had the perfect sexy shape she admired; three, Gabriella wa

"Feedback?" Marino's dry chuckle came through the line, "I call you and the first thing you ask is a feedback? Not even a how are you doing? Or are you okay?" Rosetta rolled her eyes, "What's the use of the niceties? You're okay or fine, that's your business. You're not okay or fine, still your business. Since when did you care about my concern for you?" A brief silence from Marino then, "Don't worry about it. Feedback? We'll have to see for that." She grew excited, "Did you get anything?" "We'll have to see to discuss that." She sighed, her happiness deflating. Marino was a pain in the neck. "I'm an hour and 30 minutes away from Colland." "Why? Visiting someone?" "My family. I would have said today but I don't think I would be allowed to return, when I return, I'll see you." "Fine." Was Marino's curt reply and the line went dead. "What! The audacity." She tisked with a glare of her nostrils. She

Domenico sat alone out on the terrazzo with his cup of cappuccino. No Luna to keep him company or Rosetta to annoy the hell out of him. He wondered why he felt more alone than he had ever felt. He felt empty and heartless and the weight in his chest felt even heavier and more painful. They all made it his fault, all of them. He had simply not shared in Luna's happiness on her engagement and she had blown off at him. Apparently, his congratulations had not been enough for her. Clemente, because he thought too highly of himself. Quite the opposite. Marino, thought him ungrateful simply because he had questioned him on his weird questions in his weak hour. It still bothered him that he could not remember his response no matter how hard he racked his brain. And Rosetta who just simply made it her life's mission to trouble him out of some false attraction she had for him. He sighed, bringing his cup of cappucc

He was shocked. Class president? Why would the administration think he deserved the position and why would they consider him when he had not even spent up to a month in school? "Of course, I can give you time to think about it but you have to get back to me by the end of this week." "Sì, grazie." He nodded and walked out. He stopped after shutting the door. Why was he walking away? Wasn't this what he wanted? A way to exact his revenge? He had dallied around already. It was time to act. He pushed open the door to Signore Bruno's office. "I accept signore. I will be class president." ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Rosetta stared nonchalantly ahead, tapping her boot clad feet on the ground at the parking lot of the civil engineering department. Domenico, class president. She chuckled, just exactly how good was he? It only made her want him the more, he had all the abilities she desired in a man, a prey rather and the more he playe

"I'll take us back a bit to highschool. Sound waves, in solids. Refraction, diffraction, reflection, these are terms we'll use and you have to put into use when designing those buildings and bridges. Okay, try these equations, first." Rosetta watched serious Domenico with a smile on her face. He looked so cool and... She sighed. Why was she so attracted to him? "Miss Rosetta, I believe you're following?" She jerked when she heard his address to her. She feigned a frown, "Of course not. How am I ever supposed to understand some civil engineering rubbish?" He frowned while some of his students watched her. She kept up her frown. "I'm very sure what I just explained also relates to architecture so miss Rose..." "Rosetta, please. We're not conducting a marriage class." Sniggers erupted. She bit back a smile as his features darkened. "Miss Rosetta." he spat. She snorted.

He was nervous. Just yesterday he had walked into his lecture hall as a simple student; now, he walked inside as the class president. He was nervous. He didn't know what to expect and it made him even more nervous. "Ay! Class president!" It was his predecessor who was obviously brimming with jealousy. "Wow" Another person exclaimed. "Congratulazioni!" And other exclamations and comments followed, mostly positive as a good number of his students were present. "Silence, please." He called out, standing in front of the partially filled lecture hall as more students trooped in. "As we all know, I was appointed president yesterday and I officially assume the post today. I am Domenico de Cerintti." Wolf whistles followed his announcement. "I do hope to serve you well, taking cues from my good predecessor, Nicholas Piet," He nodded at Piet who looked surprised, "And give you the very best of my strength, wisdom

"You know you'll make a good teacher." Rosetta leaned off the wall as Domenico walked out of his class. He pulled the door shut and keyed the lock. "If your silence is meant to annoy me, forget it, it's not working. I actually like it. The good girl talking to the dumb boy." He forced himself to stay mute. "Are you angry?" She followed him. "Sei arrabbiato? I should be the angry one. I waited hours for you to finish your class and not even a smile did you offer me when you came out as my so deserved thank you but I don't want a smile, I want a hug...a kiss preferably...a longgggggggg kiss." He increased his jogging pace down the stairs. "Hey! I'm wearing heels!" He jogged even faster. He heard her laugh and his jaw clenched. What was funny about his behaviour? "I don't like people wasting my time." He snapped when she finally catwalked out of the library. She was putting on one of those her uncomfortable dresses

"One kiss." Her lips moved closer to his.His irritation snapped and he was about to push her away but got himself back in control. Two could play the game."Just one?" His tone dropped, playful and enticing.She blinked surprised then nodded, her eyes filled with anticipation."Kiss the dust." He whispered and pushed her away."You...uh!""Domenico."He froze. Rosetta turned around and both of them stared at Luna a few metres away. He swallowed her name in."I'm sorry for disturbing" She shot a forced smile at Rosetta, "but can I speak with you?"He agreed because he wanted to get away from Rosetta."One minute." He told her when they moved some distance away for privacy."I'm sorry about that night. I shouldn't have said what I said. I'm sorry. I...I didn't like that you...I'm sorry, I really am. You deserve happiness and everything good. I am the one who doesn't deserve friends for saying that to someone

"Buon giorno."Marino stared open mouthed at Domenico who had just woken up."Did you just greet me? Veramente?"Domenico smiled, got down his bed and went into the adjoining bathroom.Marino scowled, "Hey! Where were you yesternight? You always come back later than I these days and it's freaking weird.""Don't you know I have tutoring sessions?" Was Domenico's reply after walking out the bathroom."You told me it ends about 10pm, you came back past 1pm.""I had other engagements.""I would have...I got ditched." Marino scowl remained. He threw himself back on his bed.Domenico glanced at him from the open wardrobe, "Ditched? You had a date?""I think.""You think? Someone gave Bernard a taste of his own medicine.""Where did you go?"Domenico grabbed clean clothes fit for the spring season. It was still quite early, past 5am but he wanted to get an early start.

"Rosetta...""Alright, alright, I'll let it go," She grumbled and pulled away."You are angry," He turned to her.She switched off the gas before the pancake on it could get burnt."We'll shop later, together, I promise," He said."I am not angry," She said casually, "Can we eat now?"She watched the muscles on his back flex as he took off the pancake from the pan and made coffee for them. He was a good man and he seemed too sincere for her, perhaps that was why she gave in to her want to sleep with him but there was just something... off?*Rosetta laughed at a joke Antonio made as she filled two glasses with cherry juice."That was not funny," She rolled her eyes as she handed him his glass."But you laughed," He teased, pulling her close by the waist."Antonio, we are at work," She giggled, biting her lip."I decide when we work and when we don't," He nuzzled her cheek.The door to his lunch room suddenly flew open and she jumped. He held her down. It was the guard that always stoo
Good boy, Badass boy Chapter 62: Something... off?
Rosetta did indeed believe that she could fall for Antonio Galdo but watching it happen over the weeks they spent brooding over architectural plans and planning the building structure over lunches and late-night dinners, she felt easy. How could a man, no matter how rich and handsome and well-mannered he was, just admit his attraction to her and she was head over heels for him? It was too easy, too too easy. Everything was going too smoothly, he was too good to be true. She brushed off the thought as she walked out the doors of her firm. The more she thought about him, the more she grew attracted to him. She instead filled her mind with thoughts of the cool bubble bath and the N*****x movies she planned to binge watch all night long. It was the weekend and she really wanted to spoil herself rotten. Preparations for Nico and Luna's wedding were also ongoing and she was one of the bridesmaids. She smiled, unlocking her car. There was nothing that forgiveness could not accomplish.She ha

"Luna?"Her eyes widened as they met with Domenico's blue ones. When did he get into the garden?Alessandro turned around. "Ah," He smiled, "Your date," He glanced at her and winked, "I'll leave you two alone."She waited until Alessandro was out of hearing range before she faced Nico "Can I help you?""I love you," He blurted out and she gasped. He closed the space between them and grabbed her by the waist, "I love you, Luna. We are not mere friends."Her heart leaped high in her chest as he slammed his lips to hers.*Her arms moved of their own accord and entangled themselves around his neck. She was high, high on love, high on happiness.They came up for air and he peppered kisses all over her face, their breathing rough and hot."What took you so long?" She breathed out, "Why did you take so long?""I'm sorry," He kissed her again and again and again until they had to pull apart for more air."I love you too, since Colland maybe."He grinned and pulled her into his arms.

How far gone was he? Too far, too too far, or else he wouldn't be chasing her all over the place. He accused her of not admitting her feelings for him at the hospital but he was the real hypocrite; he was the one holding them back from crossing the friendship stage because he was scared she'd reject him. After all, she was a rich heiress, she could get any man she wanted."Quite far," He admitted, glancing at Pietro."And?"He looked at him now. "And?""And what are your intentions towards her? You didn't come with her all the way here for fun, did you?"*He blew out a breath, "I want her to be my girlfriend... first. We have never tested that terrain, never given into our attraction. Then... then I'll like to marry her if she's willing."Pietro nodded his head and he seemed to be gauging his words."But I want to get stable first," He added, holding his ground, "She is used to a good life, the best life, I don't want to give her less."Pietro smiled, "You better don't."*"What was h

She decided then that he was worth having as an acquaintance."Your food is getting cold," She commented and picked up her fork."When will I see you again?" He asked when they had finished eating and he had paid the bills."You gave me your card, remember?" She rose."And you gave me no assurance of your visit." He rose also."I can't pass on some billionaire's money," She winked, "You'll see me when you see me."She strode out of the diner with her head held high. She, Rosetta Verona D'Armani, attracted the attention of a tycoon. Wasn't she too elegant?*Luna breathed a sigh of relief when she walked out of the station. The night had been hell. She hadn't been able to sleep a wink. All she could think of was if the stalker found Domenico's house and if they were in danger, and she panicked at even the slightest sound. Even worse, she was critically aware of the man that was sleeping in the bedroom.She got into the passenger seat of her car. Since Nico had volunteered to take care o

"Looks like we were destined to meet again," He smiled."It is rude to sit without invitation," She said harshly."Sorry, but I had a feeling you'd say no and I don't take no for an answer, especially when it comes to getting what I want."She raised a brow, "Your pride stinks."He shrugged, "I want to get to know you. What is prideful about that?"She stared at him. He was rich, attractive, classy, and exuded manly confidence. It wouldn't be so bad to indulge him.She relaxed and watched him over the rim of her glass."I am Antonio Galdo," He introduced, stretching his hand.*She eyed it, "I still haven't approved your intrusion."He chuckled and called on a waiter. "Do you want anything to eat or you are just here to drink?""I'll have the peppered chicken barbeque and the pasta to go with it," She answered.His lips twitched. "Same, please," He said to the waiter."Is that a flirting trick? Order the same with the lady so she thinks you are interested in her."He chuckled, "I guess

He laughed. A nice one, she noticed, admiring his pearly white teeth."I am not looking for any of those," he spoke, amused, "neither am I married. Can we just chat and try to be friends?"She rolled her eyes, finishing off her glass."Not interested."She rose, dropped her bills, and sashayed out. She sighed when she was safely in her car."Men," she shook her head and drove off.Antonio Galdo watched the silver Benz drive away."A real one," he laughed to himself, rising and adjusting his suit, "let's see if we are destined to meet again."*"Gently," Sebastian spoke when Luna stumbled. He guided her out of the hospital and into her car."Do you feel worse or better?" He asked, starting the car."Both," she answered with a grimace, leaning back in her seat."It will get better in a while," he assured her."You know this is the second time you're helping me out in this way. Don't you ever fall sick? Let me repay the kindness."He laughed."You shouldn't have called in late at work. I

"Who's trying to kill you?" He asked after they broke apart."I don't know," she shrugged, "you just told me the same thing the nurse said but I truly don't remember setting up the fireplace or burning old clothes. I came home and I called you immediately and afterward, I slept off on the couch only to wake up and find my house filled with smoke and the neighbours hitting my door."Domenico placed his palms on her pale cheek."Maybe I did but I really can't remember," she added quickly, "I'm probably worrying for nothing."*Luna leaned against the pillow, waiting for Domenico to return from getting food for them.'Do whatever you wish but trust me, you're no longer safe'The words of the blonde-haired girl kept echoing in her head. She breathed out shakily. Did she mean it?"Your body is already stressed as it is, don't overthink," Domenico said upon entering."I'm sick of this place," she pouted, "I imagined cooling off with you in some fancy diner and staring at your beautiful eyes,

Percy was still Percy; mature, smart, well behaved and well, Gabriella was a new face. The wedding went well and the couple definitely looked good together. Rosetta was past caring about the past. She just wanted her life free of any feuds or competition so she smiled all the way through and let herself be sincerely happy. "Did he meet with you?" Domenico asked Luna quietly as they applauded the leaving married pair amidst showers of flowers and glitters. "Yeah. He apologized, explained everything. We're good." The reception took place later on. The day ended on a happy note.*Luna walked to her car in the parking lot, forcing herself not to smile or get lost in thoughts. It was already enough that she had been daydreaming all day about him.The weekend was the best she had in a while. From Percy's wedding to watching a movie with him to spending the entire Sunday at her home with one of her girlfriends."Hey! Watch your steps!"She bumped into someone."I'm sorry, so sorry, I was
