~VITTORIA~

I stood conflicted. Trying to fight being vulnerable before him and acting like his words hadn't made my supposed hardened heart turn into a soft mush of love Jelly. If there was something like that.

"I'm sorry about Isabelle." He repeated and before I said any extra thing, he drew me into a hug. His arms were wrapped tightly around my neck and back and with the way he snuggled into my neck and drew me closer, it felt like he had wanted to do so for so long.

I didn't hug him back though, it felt wrong to do so for some reason. Hugging back an Argentero, one of the people who had caused Isabelle's death. I had no idea what she would think of me wherever she was and how bad of a person and selfish I was.

I pulled back but he still held my hands and I took a deep breath, deciding it was finally time to let him know. "Do you know why I regret that night with you so much?" I asked him, searching his eyes to see if he even had the slightest hint. "It's because that was the same n

    ~VITTORIA~The party was at a hotel, according to Yara and it was going to be strictly on invitation. I mean she was still part of a mafia family even though she was a celebrity and in the spotlight. And besides who knew what next was going to happen? If someone else that wasn't Bianchi was by a corner and was deciding to end us all.We were on the way already, I rode with Roman as usual and we were dressed just right for the occasion. Roman had come home the day before with another set of dresses and shoes and whatnot just like he had done before our wedding party. And of course a bouquet of roses which he had said he needed to start getting more often for me. Even though I told him it wasn't going to be necessary.We pulled up in front of the giant hotel that was well-lit from the outside and screamed luxury. As Roman held the door open for me and I came down, a valet attendant came to us and Nicola followed behind."Ma'am, I'm not sure but I think I just sighted one of Mr Tiziano's

    ~VITTORIA~"And if I don't want to?" I asked him crossing my legs and leaning back into my seat."You know damn well I'm not asking now, am I?" He asked."Can't believe she's letting the man stand for so long," One of Yara's celebrity friends said. "I'd stand in a heartbeat and let him do away with me.""Fucking stuck up bitch." Another mutteredI looked around a bit to see some more eyes were starting to fall on us and I sighed, standing up. I was determined to not make the headlines."Now that wasn't hard, was it?" Roman asked as he led me to the dance floor. The light dimmed as if it had been waiting for us to step into the floor and all that was left was a lit silhouette of couples together and others who sat in the crowd."You were flirting with him right?" He asked as he placed his hands on my waist and pulled me in making me gasp at how roughly he did it."I have a knife in my dress if you're being this way." I threatened and he rolled his eyes as we moved side by side slowly.

    ~VITTORIA~My eyes rested on Roman and he still had his back turned to me, walking back to our table. I wondered if the man who had the gun to my side knew I had come with Roman. And if he did, I thought about what would happen when Roman noticed I was gone.My legs didn't stop moving but they were not trembling either. It was not the first time I was in this position and all I had to do was find an opening and slice the dude with the knife I had hidden which was hugging my thigh tightly.Yara and Zaed or whatever his name was, looked like they were flirting with each other and none of them noticed what was going on either. Well, not like I could blame Yara though, I mean, she had since distanced herself from the Cosa Nostra so it wasn't like she had any reason to be on the alert.The next set of couples walked past us to the dance floor just as Roman took a seat and turned around. Martini was crouching over now whispering in his ear and I saw his smile drop as he scanned the dance fl

    ~VITTORIA~He helped me into the car and I realized I didn't struggle for him to leave me alone this time around. He was being gentle with me as well, carrying me carefully to avoid hurting me further. From time to time, I could see him bite at his inner cheeks, steal a glance at me, and repeat the same thing all over again. I was just bad at guessing what he was thinking about.When we got home, he carried me in and helped me to the sofa in the living room.I had certainly not come not spent that much time in the living room and most especially, not with him in it so I was kind of taking in the whole living room all over again and realizing that he really had good taste for interior decor. He lowered himself in front of me and took off my heels, massaging each foot gently after he did so. He had removed his jacket long ago and his shirt hands were rolled up almost to his elbows. His tie was gone also and a few of his top buttons were opened.When he was finally done with the massage

    ~VITTORIA~The best part about the last few days was that I had recovered extremely fast and had gotten enough bed rest. The worst part about it was that I had not been to work in the last few days either. It wasn't like I had not wanted to do so though. Uncle Quinto had come over to the house the next day and had made Roman promise him I wouldn't go anywhere until I was alright. And of course, Roman was extremely thrilled to make the promise after which the both of them had gone to discuss some things in the kitchen which I couldn't hear about.The previous day, Uncle Quinto had come again but this time with Yara, and I knew he had given her the 'family talk' once more making her follow him to show she cared. And I knew left for Yara, the text she had sent me one of the days was more than enough for her.Roman didn't leave the house often and even when he did, which was usually when I was asleep, he made sure Nicola was there and Nicola had even reported that on two occasions, the tw

    ~VITTORIA~I settled back into my seat, "So everyone is backing out including the Chemists?""Yes. They said they would if we don't hold a meeting soon." Nicola replied, dropping a file of paperwork on my desk.I hissed. "Ungrateful leeches. We've only been behind meeting with them for a week and they're aware Tiziano who usually does the meeting with them is unreachable at the moment."I rubbed my temples and put the cigarette to my mouth, taking a huge draw. "What is Uncle Quinto saying about it?""The only time a meeting would be possible would be next month. He says you have to finish with the casino and get it in order before having a meeting with them."I sighed loudly. Tiziano being unconscious was putting a lot of work on me and Uncle Quinto. And damn Robert wasn't useful in any way. The chemists who cooked the drugs that were being distributed in our territory were already getting on my nerves and left for me, I would have ended things with them. Not putting into consideratio

    ~VITTORIA~I turned to look at him, narrowing my eyes at him. Of everything and everywhere I'd thought about, this wasn't even on the list of thoughts.And had he not just spoken about how depressing his day was, like I mean, I was still stuck on his mother's topic and all of a sudden, I was here."My friend just opened here up a few days back. Today is the first show here." He informed me as he put an arm around my waist."The first show?" I asked.He nodded, "Yeah, you're going to love it. C'mon."We handed over our keys and walked inside the building. There weren't as many people outside or going inside. And for people who went inside, I could immediately tell that they were of the same social bracket as us.Getting into the entrance, we were met with a large bar. Everywhere was painted red and black which sort of gave it this sexy, mysterious, and classy chill vibe. I could see not up to five people sitting around there and some were alone while the remaining were paired. Roman l

    ~VITTORIA~"Vittoria!" Yara called out once more, and a suspicious smile appeared on her lips. "What are you doing here huh?" she asked as she stood in front of me and smiled wider. Roman shook hands with Zaed and exchanged pleasantries. "I don't know, heard grocery prices here are pretty much decent," I replied in a sarcastic tone rolling my eyes at her.She gave me a pitiful look and then focused her gaze on Roman, "How do you cope with your Lilith babydoll, she tries too hard."I heard Roman chuckle and draw me closer to himself, something he's been doing practically all night. "She's cute though so it kind of cancels every other thing. Plus that was actually kind of funny."I smirked and folded my arms then stuck out my tongue at her."You're so lucky he's so much in love," Yara said to me, tucking strands of hair behind her ear."Didn't know you knew Will," Roman said to Zaed which made him shrug. "Eh... Hasn't been long since we got acquainted. But here's fire to be honest."

    ~ VITTORIA ~"Shit," I said turning to look at Roman. He held my hand immediately and I saw him take out a gun with his other hand."It's going to be okay. I'm not letting anything happen to you." He assured me and I could see it in his eyes that he meant what he said which made me trust him more. Our car sped up while Roman and Nicola started to shoot at where the car which was attacking was.The whole thing was becoming more fierce and the ride was becoming bumpy. In less than 2 minutes, the car behind us which had Roman and Uncle Quinto's men crashed into a pole making a halt. "Don't stop driving, Gio!" Roman commanded. "Vittoria babydoll, are you okay?" He asked scanning from my hair down to my body and I nodded swiftly. I hadn't noticed how tight I had clutched to him or the reason why I had because I mean I was Vittoria, the Lilith, not a girl who couldn't take care of herself. But here I was anyway, acting like I hadn't earned that nickname myself. Two more of our cars fill

    ~VITTORIA ~ I woke up in Roman's bed, again. This was something I was not going to get used to anytime soon. We had not addressed what had happened at Simone's house a few days ago and he didn't look like he was going to talk about it so I just kind of let it be. The day after that, he had come back acting like his usual self, flirty and annoying. He had even gotten me a couple of gifts while coming back home and I thought that was sweet of him. Yesterday evening, he had met me in the kitchen, making coffee which I had planned to use to keep me awake while I worked. And somehow we had started flirting and the flirting had turned into kissing him and now I was awake the next day in his bed. How I had just given in to him made me realize how much I had missed him from the last intimate night we shared and I found myself this morning wanting more of him even. He was snoring softly behind me as he moved a little, I turned around gently to face him. He had his arm on me and in his slee

    ~ROMAN~"I can say I'm sorry I brought up mum," North said and it was taking every amount of self-control in me to stop me from hitting him."You love being his little pet, don't you?" I asked him and I saw him roll his eyes. I hated it when he was like this. And by this, I meant thoughtless and fucking annoying. "I'm just obeying him. I'm seeing reasons with him." North replied with a little shrug. As if that was the most sane thing to do with father.Cleto and Diego were stood in a corner listening and trying their hardest not to interfere, as they knew best. The opened bottles of alcohol and wine were left untouched on the meeting table because as soon as we had tried to drink together, this fool had decided it was the best time to piss me off. "It's something simple. If we take over the Bellucci territory and vote them out of their power rank with the support of the other families, their routes, casinos, clubs... casinos lost especially are going to be ours and-"Before he could

    ~VITTORIA~I walked into the sitting room and scoffed, making them notice my presence. Sore enough they weren't happy to see me. Simone was sitting there together with three other men who were from other mafia families of lower rank. They had also been present at the meeting when Bianchi was killed by Roman."Y'all seem to be having a fun conversation," I told them looking from one person to another. And making sure I said it in the rudest tone I could use. "I mean since Tiziano's name was mentioned, it sparked my interest a little bit too much.""Always that damn mouth of hers," One of them spat out giving me a dirty look from head to toe."I told you." Another chipped in, in a low tone."You fuckin-""Vittoria," Roman called out softly, cutting me off and grabbing my hand. I had forgotten he was even there with me."I'll take care of it from here." He assured."Yeah, you better. I wouldn't want to deal with a woman's whining today." The first man commented once more."Say a sentence

    ~VITTORIA~The sun rays from the window which crept into the kitchen every morning were starting to make me look forward to drinking coffee on the kitchen counter every morning. And I couldn't lie, I loved it every single time. I had even bought two plants a week earlier and positioned them next to the window and so far, they had been doing quite well for themselves. In addition to Roman always remembering to water them each time. Something I always seemed to forget."You know, you really don't have to come with me to Ontario just for that," I told Roman the next morning as he dropped a coffee mug in front of me after taking a quick sip from it. "I'd just go and be back in a quick while.""Thank you," I added.He dropped a plate of waffles which he had just finished making in front of me too, dropped with his coffee as well before taking a seat in front of me. "I wouldn't want you to miss my presence so much, baby doll." He responded in a casual tone, winking at me.I rolled my eyes a

    ~VITTORIA~I woke up the next morning and reached for my nightstand to check the time with my eyes still closed. I couldn't find it neither could I find my phone and it was only then that I felt someone holding me closely and warm breaths fanning my neck. And it was Roman. The whole previous night flooded my memory and I remained indifferent, trying to make the decision of how I was going to get away quietly without waking him up. The last night was incredible, I admitted and it was something I hadn't seen coming either. I enjoyed it as well but the lingering feeling of guilt I had in me wouldn't fade away for some reason. It was like I was reliving the past all over again, only that Isabelle's death had already kind of happened. I looked over slowly at him and he had his eyes still closed. I took a huge breath before gently taking his hand up and away from me. I had not even started getting up before his hand wrapped around my body and drew me closer to himself again. To my shock

    ~ROMAN~I was kissing her, even I couldn't believe it. After this long while which felt like a century. I was kissing her again. It was intimate, desperate, passionate, made me feel like I was losing my mind, and made me to realize how much I missed her all over again.She had her hands on my body for the first time willingly and I loved how her slender body rubbed against mine as she did it. It seemed like she had wanted this just as much as she had said and it felt like she had been holding back all these while just cause of her sister.I took her gently to beside the wall and before her back could even press the wall, I was back to kissing her. I slid my hand cupping one of her large breasts just like I had always wanted to and squeezed it gently through her cloth fabric. I kissed her neck, cheek, ear, anywhere I could, how many times I could before going back to her mouth. I just couldn't get enough of her."Baby doll, you have no idea how much I'd wanted to do this," I told her a
