Alessandro's P.O.V (Continued Flashback)
"You know what to do," Amanda stated as she parked in front of Natalia and I's home, I nodded about to step out of the car, but she spoke again.
"And if you decided to do the opposite remember we have snipers on her. The snipers can penetrate your bulletproof windows and we have men ready to run in." My jaw clenched as I nodded again, leaving the car as I went to the gate typing in the password before entering the house.
The second I closed the door I could smell the food she was cooking, I smiled softly knowing she had been practising ever since I left.
"Baby, is that you?" I heard her soft voice, I knew it would be the last time I'd hear it as I slowly walked into the kitchen taking in her appearance.
She had somehow managed to mess up
- Chapter 14: When & Secrets - Flashback continued (Alessandro's P.O.V) 3 years later "When did you get back?" Alessia asked me, "Yesterday, I'm going to be staying at the Petrov manor for a while." "What am I supposed to tell- Natalia, hey! I'll call you back." Alessia hung up as I pushed down the feeling of longing hearing Natalia's name. I slipped my phone into my pocket as I turned to Amanda, who was sittin
- Chapter 15: Conflicted & Reality - Natalia's P.O.V "And the rest is history, Alessia knows by the way." It now made sense why she was defending him in the bar...well trying to. "When did she find out?" I asked, "The day she got kidnapped. That was your sister's doing as well, it was a warning for me." It was all making sense now. "So, she wants me dead because I didn't save her from a fucking car crash. I was 14, I barely knew how to swim." I started, expressing my annoyance. "Does she have anything that can be used against us?" I asked. "Yes, she made Amanda steal the file on everyone." He explained, I cursed softly now even more stressed out than before. "Of course she does." "Don't worry about that now." He said making me raise a brow as I met his eyes. "We should be thinking of a plan." "We can do that tomorrow at your house with Aless
- Chapter 16: Chance & Kill - Natalia's P.O.V "Mommy, someone's at the front door!" I heard Nicholai as he and his sister rushed into my office. I looked at the time since my mind immediately wondered if it was Vincent, but it was nowhere near 8. "It's Aunt Alessia and papà!" Anastasia informed me as she and Nic followed me to the door. The second I opened it, I saw Alessandro and Alessia like my daughter said. "I almost forgot you both were coming over," I stated while stepping aside so they could come in. Ana and Nic didn't hesitate to hug Alessandro's leg, which earned a startling smile from him, but it soon formed into a happy one as he bent down hugging them back. I couldn't stop a smile of my own as I took in the scene in front of me. "I remember when I was their favourite," Alessia said, I chu
- Chapter 17: Still & Stories - Natalia's P.O.V When Vincent arrived Alessandro seemed more on edge while Alessia was just watching this all play out. "I'll be back soon, don't give your father and aunt too much trouble," I told the twins, they nodded. "We won't!" I watched as they rushed back into the living room to watch their cartoon. I looked at Alessandro who kept his face emotionless so I couldn't tell what he was thinking or feeling. "They should be tired soon, their room is down that hall to the right." He nodded. "Have fun." I gave him a smile, despite knowing how much this was probably killing him. "Thanks." I walked out of the house going towards the gate where Vincent stood a few feet away from his car. The second I stepped in front of him, he wore a smile on his lips. "How is it you get more beautiful every time I se
- Chapter 18: Compete & Heartbreak - Alessandro's P.O.V About an hour or two had passed since the kids and Alessia went to bed, I stayed up deciding to watch some TV because I couldn't sleep until Natalia made it home safely, which didn't take long as I heard the front door opening and footsteps. "What are you still doing up?" I heard her ask. I instantly turned off the tv before giving her my now undivided attention as she took a seat on the white couch to my left while slipping off her heels which seemed to bring her great relief. "It's only 10," I replied doing my best not to get distracted by how stunning she looked right now.
- Chapter 19: Maze & Tip - Natalia's P.O.V I knew I should have pulled away, I should have told him to go, but I could never resist the constant pull whenever he was around, I needed to feel him one more time to get him out of my system even though I knew one night with him would have me hooked on the drug that was him. I hadn't realized we had been walking into a room until I heard a door close, I pulled back removing his shirt and throwing it aside. He brought our lips together again while lifting me in his arms, my legs wrapped around his body as his tongue slipped in my mouth reminding me of his sweet taste. My back hit a
- Chapter 20: Sleepover & Monster - He laid me in the middle of the bed, relaxing my body with soft kisses, he was preparing me for what was about to happen. Each time I thought about us having sex for the first time in years made me grow impatient as he was taking his sweet time. The second our eyes met he noticed this which made him grin softly. "I'm trying to savour the moment." I rolled my eyes with a smile. "You can savour it later, we have all night." He chuckled lightly deciding to listen to my wants as he took his member in his hand positioning it at my entrance.
- Chapter 21: Ilaria & Smart - Natalia's P.O.V Once we had showered and gotten dressed, we made our way to the kitchen. Alessia and the twins were quietly talking about the cartoon they had been watching yesterday. When our footsteps were heard, they turned to us. "You two took your time," Alessia commented with a knowing smile, I decided to ignore her as I bent down, matching my children's height. "How many pancakes
