Chapter 36: House & Self Control
-
It was the next day Alessandro was helping me pack my stuff into boxes since I was moving into our house today.
"Why do you have so many clothes?" I shrugged before asking.
"Why do you have so many shoes?" This made him grin as he folded my dress placing it into the box.
"Touché." I smiled watching as he took up the tape.
"That's the last one."
"Finally, I'll call the movers" He breaths out closing the box with tape.
I nodded as he left the room going for the movers. Soon he came back with women and men, who moved to take up the boxes.
I walked over to Alessandro who placed his hand around my waist leading me outside my room.
"Have you told your parents you're moving out?" He asked, I shook my head not really in the mood to talk to them.
"You have to tell them, Nat."
- Chapter 37: Olivia & Jealousy - I sat on the bed, running my fingers through my hair, I had been sitting here for a good 10 minutes since Alessandro left. The frustrating feeling never left my body, so I decided to take a shower in hopes it would calm my tense shoulders. I slipped out of my clothes, stepping inside the shower. I was in there for about 8 minutes before I was rudely interrupted by the sound of someone knocking on the room door. I sighed softly, stepping out of the shower while using the towel I found on the bathroom rack to cover my body, before going to the door, opening it. This revealed Alessia, she had her hair up in a ponytail, she was wearing a black dress with sneakers. I noticed she had a file in her hand, I remembered Alessandro telling me she would be coming over to drop off something. "He-Why do you look like you want to kill so
- Chapter 38: You & Queen - When I came downstairs I saw Olivia and Alessia talking quietly in the living room, hearing my footsteps they turned to me, "Natalia I just looked in the fridge and I have to say I'm disappointed. Where the fuck is the food?" I laughed lightly at Alessia's question. "I had the same reaction, Alessandro and I are buying groceries tomorrow, so we're ordering pizza or something tonight," I informed her, leaning against the couch head not realizing Alessandro was behind me until he slipped his hand around my waist. "You scared me," I whispered making him smile. "How is it I can sneak up on you twice, but a trained killer can't?" I chuckled, shrugging knowing he had a point. Alessandro moved my hair to my back as his hand caressed my face lovingly, "You are stunning, you know that?" I nodded, enjoying his random compliments an
- Chapter 39: Coating & Tongue - I closed my eyes as his hot tongue moved up my thigh, I let out a breath of relief awaiting the mindblowing pleasure he was about to provide me with his tongue. His hands went to the hem of my underwear, he moved to pull it down, I lifted my hips slightly giving him more access to do so as he slipped it off. Alessandro planted kisses against my legs moving closer to my needy core, but not once did his lips greet my clit which made me grow frustrated as he continued this unless teasing until I spoke up. "Don't tease me." He chuckled, sending vibrations through my body making me shiver. "If that's what you wish." He slipped two familiar fingers in me making me smile as a moan slipped from my lips. Alessandro brought me into a kiss while his fingers worked against me, my hands moved from his shirtless back to his hair
- Chapter 40: Breakfast & Roses - I woke up the next day in Alessandro and I's bedroom, alone. I knew this wasn't the room I fell asleep in last night which told me Alessandro brought me here. I sat up slowly, letting out a yawn still feeling tired from last nights' activities, my eyes caught the sight of a note that sat on the bedside table, I reached for it, reading it. I'm in the kitchen making breakfast, there are some clothes in the bathroom so you can take a shower. -A I smiled brightly deciding to take a shower, when I stood I could feel a slight pain in my legs which was caused by the positions I had decided to try out last night. Just like Alessandro said clothes were in the bathroom, but it was not my clothes it was his, boxers and shirt. I made a mental note to unpack the boxes
- Chapter 41: Dates & Promises - Alessandro and I were currently in a car that was being driven by our driver, Michael. Where we were going? I had not a single clue, he only told me we were going on a date. Along the way, Alessandro got multiple phone calls from many clients and workers. "Non era una domanda, era un ordine." He said coldly before he hung up, it was very rare for me to see Alessandro in 'business mode' it seemed like he tried his best to hide that side from me whenever he could. (Translation: It wasn't a question, it was an order.) He looked over to me, giving me his usual soft smile. "Sorry about that." I nodded, leaning back in my seat. "It's ok," I reassured him, he glanced at his phone, sighing. "I'm turning off my phone." I shook my head in protest not wanting to disrupt his work. "You don't have to." He turned
- Chapter 42: Bianca & Cream - "These taste familiar. Where did you get them?" I asked taking another bite out of my hamburger. "The diner we went to on our first date. You said you liked the food there, so I thought it would be a good idea for you to relive that...unless you want to eat something else-" I touched his cheek gentle stopping his rant. "You're so adorable when you're nervous." He blushed slightly making me smile. "Have you tried the ice cream?" He asked trying to change the subject and I let him. "No, I haven't." I watched as he took out a container filled with the treat. "What flavour is this?" He gave her a spoon before answering. "Cookie and cream." Digging in, I sighed loving the creamy taste. "You know I haven't gotten any notes from R in a while, have you?" He shook his head, but he hesitated for a secon
- Chapter 43: Partner & Test - When Alessandro and I got home, my family, his family, Christie and Olivia were inside, cooking and setting the table. "You made yourselves comfortable. Didn't you say this was a meeting Alessia?" I asked announcing our presence. "You both were taking too long, and since you wanted to have a family dinner, I invited everyone. You can have your meeting later." Alessia explained as she greeted me with a quick hug, before heading back in the kitchen to help her stepmother with the meal that was on the stove. "I see it's too late to protest now," Alessandro stated, referring to the house filled with our family. "Natalia is that blood?" My mother inquired looking at the orange dress I wore, I glanced at the ends of the dress seeing a bit of blood, lucky none had gotten on my skin. "Yes, Alessandro and I ran into a little...
- Chapter 44: Results & Drunk - Alessia and I stood in the bathroom eyes looking at the pregnancy test that was covered by a white towel, I wanted to look but I was scared at the results, what if I was pregnant? Was I capable of being a mother? Could I care for a baby? "Are you going to look?" I asked expectantly, she crossed her arms, smiling. "Me?! This is your test." I sighed. "Fine." I reached for the towel but my hand dropped, not having the ability or strength to look. "I can't do it." Alessia rolled her eyes, amused. "For the love of God." She took the test in her hand looking at it, my heart pounded in my chest. "What does it say?" I inquired. I nervously awaited her answer as she looked at the pregnancy test. "Pregnant." Were the words that left her pink lips, I shook my head not wanting to believe it, it couldn't possibly be right...could it? "No, maybe it's wrong. Let me take anoth
- Book 2: Epilogue - 5 YEARS LATER Natalia's P.O.V "Happy birthday, beautiful." I heard Alessandro behind me which had me turning off the tv before facing him. "Don't remind me." He only smiled while pressing a kiss against my forehead. "I'm sorry I'm late, my flight got delayed." I gave him a smile of reassurance. "It's fine, I got to spend more time with the kids," I informed him while he took a seat beside me. "That's good to hear, so do you want anything for this birthday?" I stared into his eyes as I bit my lip. "I can get anything I want?" He laughed lightly at my tone. "Besides that, our beautiful children are still awake." I sighed playfully. "Alright, can you make me some pancakes?" "It's 6 pm, Nat." I shrugged. "Isn't it my birthday?" "I guess,
-Book 2: Chapter 28: I & Do-A month later"I already told you we're not gonna have a ceremony, I think having the rings are enough," I told my mother while taking a seat beside Alessandro as he held Dream in his hands.I had Rose in mine."In other words, if she wanted to break up with him she wouldn't have to go through that whole divorce drama," Andrey added making me nod."Exactly." This earned a scoff from Alessandro.
-Book 2: Chapter 27: Pregnant & Yes-A year later"I've never hated you more Alessandro," I stated, making him smile as he flushed the toilet that held my vomit."You're the one who wanted another child. I thought you'd be satisfied after 4." I rolled my eyes as I washed out my mouth before quickly brushing my teeth which didn't take more than 2 minutes."I forgot how the first few months are," I mumbled while putting away my toothbrush, feeling tears greeting my eyes. "I hate this."
-Book 2: Chapter 26: Another & Time-Natalia's P.O.VI pulled back from his lips to stare into his brown eyes that reminded me of home."I love you," I whispered trying to push back the feeling of tiredness since I had woken up a few minutes ago."And I love you. I was scared I'd lose you last night." He admitted while holding me against his naked chest."You'll n
-Chapter 25: Kennedy & Gunshot-Natalia's P.O.V"What are you talking about?""Come on, Natalia. Do you really think a 16 year old could have this much money? This many bodyguards? This many guns? By herself?""As I said, she helped me and in return, I helped her." She informed me which didn't clear up all the confusion my mind held."I don't understand. Why would she want revenge if she left Alessandro and Alessia years ag
- Chapter 24: Future & Revenge - Natalia's P.O.V I drove towards the warehouse with a heavy chest as I came closer and closer to the location my sister had given me. I was racking my brain trying to figure out what she was going to do to me once I arrived. This made me wish I had told my kids one last goodbye. I was silently hoping this wouldn't be my last night on this earth, but I knew hope wasn't something steady to rely on.
- Chapter 23: Kirill & Alone - Natalia's P.O.V Hours had passed since dinner even though Maria obviously wanted to speak to me earlier, for some reason she chose to put it off. I was curious as to why, but I decided not to question it as my mind's focus now shifted to the kiss Amanda and Alessandro shared which had been bugging me all night. I knew it shouldn't have bothered me because he already explained their arrangement, but I couldn't help the anger and jealousy that rose in my chest. I took out a bottle of tequila from the
- Chapter 22: Know & Kisses - Natalia's P.O.V We entered the dining room where my family sat talking away. "You all took your time." My mother commented as Alessandro and I slipped our kids into the high chairs my parents bought. "At least we came," I said while taking a seat next to Andrey, sadly Amanda made Alessandro sit next to her. My eyes met Maria's to see she was already staring at me. "I heard you missed." She smiled amused when I said this.
- 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
