Chapter 13Scarlett WolffI kept checking my phone every passing minute for the time as I waited for Lucien to come home. I had called to tell him earlier that I was sick, and I believed he would come to check on me.What if he doesn't? My subconscious mind asked me, and I bit my lip hard. Well, I could only hope and pray silently that he would show up. No way I would sleep here again all alone.I bolted toward my room the moment I heard his car drive into the compound, and once I was in my room, I threw myself on the bed and snuggled myself under the duvet, shivering as if I had been sick for a long time while waiting for him to show up.“Scarlett!” Came his voice as the door burst open and he barged inside. He came to squat beside me, removing the duvet that was covering my body, and I shook even more. I think I should consider casting in a movie. Until now, I didn't know I had a hidden talent which was acting. I might as well give it a shot now that I've discovered it.“Scarlett?
Chapter 14Lucien Alessandro“Will the massage make you feel better?” I found myself asking even though I've been trying to keep my distance. She looked really sick, and though this was a bad idea, I could not bring myself to let her suffer when I could actually be of help to her.She stared at me for a couple of seconds silently, blinking her cute eyes before nodding her head.“Yes, thank you,” her cute little voice made my heart melt in my chest. For a second, I had a second thought about this knowing I might not be able to behave myself later.Regardless, I put everything away and went to sit beside her on the bed. I felt a tingling sensation in my fingers, my heart pounding hard against my chest like it was going to force its way out of me. Just the sight of her beautiful body made my stomach churn with excitement. I tried to control the feeling from spreading down there, trying everything to get myself distracted. Having an erection in front of her was the last thing I wanted. I
Chapter 15Scarlett WolffI had no idea who called Lucien on the phone, but I was surely so mad at whoever it was. How could he or she call while we were in the middle of something? It's so fucking annoying.“Ugh! It shouldn't have been now.” I cursed silently, raking my hair through my fingers. With the little strength left in me, I left the bed and went to the bathroom to have a warm bath.“Fuck!” I groaned silently after I stripped out of my dress, standing in front of the mirror. My nipples were standing firmly like they needed attention. Oops! They really needed it.My pussy lips were swollen and slimy. After I was done bathing and getting dressed, I left for the kitchen to go get something to eat as I was famished. However, as I descended the staircase, I was rather welcomed by the aroma of a delicious meal coming from the kitchen.I had not expected to find Lucien in the kitchen, but there he was, making food. I stood at the Doorstep, admiring him. How sleeves were rolled up
Chapter 16Scarlett WolffWe were welcomed inside the villa by the awful smell of alcohol and cigarettes. The first thing that made me uncomfortable there, but because I wanted to clear my head, I didn't leave immediately.“Is this an in-house party or something?” I leaned close to Alexa and yelled so she could hear me amid the loud music. Is this supposed to just be a party or a clubhouse, because that is the only place that could be this rowdy.“Let's just enjoy, girl.” She rolled her eyes at me as she held my hand while moving her body to the rhythm of the music playing. Seeing the familiar faces of our students made me ask myself if the celebrant was a student of my school.“How come almost all our classmates are here? Is your cousin our student or her boyfriend?” I pulled a puzzled look, asking Alexa curiously as she led me through the crowd.“Her boyfriend, the celebrant. He is a student of our school, in his finals, but not in our department.” I muttered an ‘oh’ after she expla
Chapter 17Scarlett Wolff“Do you need me to help you with anything else?” Derek asked after he helped me get Alexa into the backseat of her car.“No, thanks. I'll take it from here.” I had turned to hop inside the car when he spoke up.“Did you drink earlier?” His question had me turning to him with my eyebrows raised.“Why do you ask?”“You can't drive while drunk.” He gave me a ridiculous reply that had me scoffing.“Do I look drunk?”“Not really. But you might get stopped on the way, and you know what that means. I don't mind giving you a ride.” He offered, and I huffed before telling him bluntly that I wasn't interested.“You will regret not accepting this offer later, Scarlett. Trust me.” He winked at me, causing me to huff and rolled my eyes.After Derek walked away, I hopped inside the car and drove off.It was just a few minutes into the drive when I saw cops on the road ahead, and I let out a sigh. I guess I'm going to get stopped. I was flagged down as I approached them, an
Chapter 18 Lucien Alessandro I was supposed to meet Vlad right away earlier, but something urgent came up, and I had to delay it. 'Let's meet at the villa now'. I texted Vlad a couple of minutes ago on my way to the villa. The drive only took about fifteen minutes before I arrived at the villa where I found Vlad's car already parked at the garage. “Boss.” He stood up and bowed when I walked inside the living room. “Hmm. Something came up, the reason I'm late.” I explained to him even though there was no need to. “It's fine, boss. I understand.” He replied to me, and I nodded. “So?” I sat on the couch across from him, waiting for him to give me the piece of information he had for me. “This is the information I found about Dimitri, boss.” Vlad dropped an iPad on the centre table and pushed it to my front. “Dimitri Pietro. Age twenty-nine. An orphan who grew up in an orphanage with his elder brother, the late Giovanni Pietro. He joined the Bratva family when he was j
Chapter 19Lucien AlessandroI drove recklessly on the road with no destination in mind. Never in a million years have I ever imagined I'd ever be this scared of someone getting hurt. It was the first time I was having this feeling.For the umpteenth time, I dialled her number, hoping I would be able to reach her this time, but just like every other time that I had tried it, her number wasn't still reachable.“Fuck!” I cursed, tossing my phone on the seat beside me.Another five minutes into the drive, and I saw a few cops ahead of me, checking the cars in front of me and causing traffic congestion.I waited impatiently until they got to my turn.“There was a murder case around the neighborhood, so we are checking cars. Open your trunk, please.” The cop, who was in his mid thirties, said to me politely, and I had to open the trunk for him. After he was done checking, he came to me and told me that I could leave. I was about to leave when it crossed my mind to show him Scarlett's pictu
Chapter 20Lucien AlessandroMy heart melted the moment I opened the door and found Scarlett standing at my doorstep. She was graced in a short nightie which barely covered her butt, and slightly opened in the chest, revealing her cleavages. She had her hair up in a ponytail, which has always been my favourite hairstyle of herself. “Can I come in?” I swallowed nothing and managed to nod my head when she spoke, and after she came inside, I closed the door and turned to her.Silence assumed the atmosphere as I stood in front of her, looking everywhere else except her direction. It was already difficult having her around, and now she was looking all yummy. Gosh! I don't want to do something crazy, please.“About what happened earlier…” she paused, fondling her fingers when I looked at her. The way she made eye contact with me was another level of confidence that I couldn't explain. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get you pissed. I was just bored at home and jumped at the offer when my fri
“Good morning, Scarlett. Did you sleep well?” He didn't make eye contact with me, but instead looked like he was avoiding my gaze. I didn't think too much about it because there was no reason for him to do that. “Are you going out?” I raised an eyebrow. “Hmm. I have something to take care of. Is everything alright?” I guess he noticed the frown that settled on my face when he looked at me. “You promised me yesterday that you would be going to the movies with me today.” I pouted my lips disappointedly. “Yeah, I still remember that. What time is it going to be? This morning?” He raised his eyebrows as he looked at me. “No. 6pm.” I replied to him. “We still have so much time, Scarlett. I won't go back on my word.” He assured me, and I felt relieved. “I made breakfast. I already served yours and was about to come and call you when you showed up. Let's go to the dining room.” I told him. “You should go ahead and eat alone, Scarlett. I have something to attend to.” He left me to g
Chapter 22 Scarlett Wolff I could barely sleep all through the night as I looked forward to daybreak so I could go out with Lucien. It was barely 6am when I woke up and left for the kitchen to do the chores and make breakfast. I have no idea why he doesn't have a single house help in his house, but I didn't bother to ask him. My phone rang at the time that I just rounded up washing the plates, and I rolled my eyes when I saw that it was Alexa. “Have you slipped out of your messed up state now, huh?” I spoke on the phone once I picked the call, and I heard her scoff. “Don't be mad at me, sweetheart. I'm sorry about what happened. I'm going to make it up to you, and that's a promise.” She whined, causing me to roll my eyes again as I reclined on the counter. “Do you have plans today? We could hang out together. I won't get drunk again, I promise.” “Nah. I have plans.” I quickly replied to her. “Going out with someone?” “That's not your business, bitch. Have you slipped out of
