Giancarlo Three days, three fucking days and there was no sign of Claire anywhere. She wasn't coming home and wasn't at work either. Even her friend had no idea of her whereabouts. The first night I panicked at first, but decided to sit back and let her do her thing. We weren't obligated to each other and going after her might seem a little “too much”. The second night, I tried to pretend I wasn't affected by her absence, tired to sleep but ended up in her room, sniffing her sheets. I didn't know how bad I missed her until I woke up on her bed the next morning.The third night, I tried to find out where she was, asked her friend all over again, but she said Claire had literally been off the grid. A part of me was going crazy and panicking over the fact that she was not here.And now, today. I tried calling her, but her phone was off. I knew every time I called it was going to be the same thing, but I tried again regardless. I stood by the glass window, looking over the city, tryin
Chapter 54Out of nowhere, she stepped close and, with a tenderness I hadn't dared to hope for, she pressed her lips to mine. In that electrifying moment, time seemed to pause and all I could feel were the softness of her lips on mine. Her kiss was soft yet insistent, like she had waited very long to do it. As our lips met, I felt an indescribable warmth spread through me, mending the part of me that cracked in her absence. It was as if she had unlocked a part of my heart, filling it with a radiance that made everything else fade into insignificance.Without thinking, I returned the kiss with all the fervor of someone who had finally filled his empty colup. In that instant, I knew I was complete. A puzzle that Sofia had scattered for years, now sweetly assembled with her gentle affection.Gradually, the kiss progressed and it was no longer enough for the both of us. With every will power left in me, I pulled away from her, taking in deep breaths.Disappointment fell on her face and a
ClaireI let out a single long breath, leaning back properly into the pillow. I laid bare chested, not bothering to cover up as I tried to catch my breath.This is it, right? I had gotten what I wanted, gotten too drunk on my hormones and now I was finally free of the tension that had built up in my lower abdomen. And suddenly the realisation started to sink in. What have I done!?I blinked, trying not to let the tears fall. A few minutes ago he was buried deep inside of me, bringing me different shades of pleasure I had never experienced, and now I was on the verge of tears from….regret?His arms wrapped around my waist, trying to pull me to himself, but too disgusted by what I had done, I gently slipped away. I turned to look at his confused face and I only got more conviction that I shouldn't have done it. I shouldn't have had sex with Giancarlo.I didn't fear he was not the type of man I want. I only feared that single act would pull me deeper into a pit I might not be able to p
It all felt too sudden, too unreal. The dull thud that echoed behind me when I turned to go back to my desk. The sound of a body hitting the floor.My heart lurched. And when I turned around, I could swear my heart fell out of my mouth. Before my eyes he crumbled, his body giving way as if the life had been drained out of him. His hands barely caught at the edge of the desk before they slipped. “Giancarlo!” His name tore from my throat as I ran to him, my pulse pounding in my ears.I dropped to my knees beside him, my hands shaking as I was confused as to where to grab. Finally I grabbed his face, patting gently on it.“Carlo, hey—hey! What’s wrong? Talk to me!”But he grunted in response. Panic clawed at my chest as tears began to gather in my eyes. “Carlo, please—” My voice cracked as I shook him gently, but all he did was grunt. Not knowing what to do, I grabbed my phone and called the only person I could think of. “Hel–p… help, please, Giancarlo passed out and….” I couldn't say
GiancarloMy eyes dimmed and my lashes dropped as I stared at the two of them. My facial expressions blanked as Claire whispered behind me. I turned my gaze towards Enzo with a raised eyebrow and he had a stupid smile on his face.“Is this a prank?” I asked Enzo as Claire and I closed the distance between us. “Good evening, Mr Caruso.” They both greeted almost in unison, but I was too caught up in my glare with Enzo to give them a reply. “What are they doing here?” Claire asked this time as she glared at both Alex and Victoria. “Well, that's not a good way to ask how my flight was.” Enzo said, earning a flare from me.“Why are they with you?” I asked again, the hand I had gently paced around Claire's waist, tightening on instinct.“You asked me to pick two best staff on the team. Well, I present to you Alexander Carter and Victoria Lane.” From his facial expression, it was almost like he was enjoying the whole thing. With a single nudge of my head, I quietly requested his presence
Claire“Oh God!” The words slipped past my throat in a whisper as I flung my head back, giving him more access to my neck. His hands slid down my wet body, sending more ache and pulse to my buds. His hard bulge pressed against my pelvic bone and the feel of it against my skin made my pussy salivate. His tongue latched smoothly in my earlobe as he flicked it in it, his teeth grazing the soft texture of it. The simple action sent electric waves to every nerve in my body and another moan slipped past my throat. While he nibbled on my earlobes, his thumb circled around my nipple, getting them harder than they were already, and I just couldn't hold it back anymore. “Giancarlo…” I moaned his name, pulling his hair tighter. “Fuck! I haven't liked my name better than I've loved the sound of it right now.” He said in a dark voice. My hand wrapped around his neck as his hands slid down to the back of my hips. With a single move, he lifted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. In a rou

ClaireI lay on the bed trying to figure out a way to fight myself out of the mess that I was in.How was I going to do it? How would I survive with all of them around me? My head throbbed as the questions refused to let my eyes blink in sleep.Just the previous day, Carlo had nearly ripped his client's head off about something that had to do with me.Very busy fighting my own annoyance over Sophia, Alex and Tory, I had not noticed any out-of-place stare from Theodore even when Carlo insisted there was.So when the fight broke out, my heart panged in mounting frustration and sadness.“If only I had not been around, things would have been better,” self doubt simmered through my head.Lorenzo and I were on our toes to keep the situation from escalating while still trying to keep our heads cool and not join the war.The aftermath of the meeting was the worse. My brain was pounding with every ounce of energy it could mutter and my eyes had watered so much that I could barely see my way ba
Giancarlo.I could read the fear in her eyes as I spoke about doggy. I knew she enjoyed doggy or had enjoyed the doggy that day so I was going to give it to her no matter what. Her satisfaction was my priority and I was more than ready to give her that.Whether I collapsed after or not wouldn't be a problem. "I'll just rise again," I tried to assure myself as I looked at her fear-stricken eyes, that were growing watery."It's fine, Claire. I won't collapse, I promise". I winked reassuringly at her, trying to uplift her spirit."We'll do it on the bed and you won't have to stand.” The fear reduced in her eyes but didn't disappear completely as she spoke, voice trembling and low.She wriggled her fingers nervously, kneeling on the bed and giving me a pleading look. "You'll take it easy, won't you?" She looked like she was going to cry as she pouted at me, hands pulling into a pleading position."Come on," my heart softened the more as her pink lips pouted and her blue-green eyes grew
Claire.I returned almost immediately, my urge burning hotter and my heart dancing in a flame of fiery passion, pulling my nipples upright again.I wanted to suck his dick so bad that my mouth ached and my tongue lolled out, falling helplessly over my lower lip.His dripping cum was so sexy to look at that I fought with little chance of winning, to resist the urge to grab his dick and lick them all up.His standing figure and dangling pink penis was hungry to be grasped, watching me with puppy eyes and begging me to give in to the tempting thought.I gave up on trying to fight my cravings and caved in, pushing all rational thoughts from my mind and letting the moment engulf my senses like smoke.I lifted myself in one blow and grabbed the slightly weak penis and pushed it into my mouth, pushing it deeper to the back of my tongue and bending my neck a little backwards.I began to suck the remaining cum that was dripping from his dick, savoring the taste wonderfully and wishing he had c
Claire.I squirted uncontrollably, legs vibrating like a freezing hen and some of the liquid pouring on his face, bathing him like a shampoo and staining his red cheeks with its milky color.To my surprise he licked them all up, tongue dangling outside in a seductive way that turned me on the more. He went down again, hands widening my legs the more for easier access and tongue flicking the topmost part of my vagina hungrily.He licked all of the squirt, taking time to lick most of them from my clitoris and breathing oxygen to cool it down. My head went back in satisfaction as the pleasure increased more than the last, slowly taking over my thinking faculty and pulling me closer to the brink of slipping out of consciousness.But he stopped, hands still pulling my legs apart and head raised, smiling at me with his lips and his eyes, some squirt dangling on his chin. “I love you,” he said with emotions sitting comfortably in his eyss. The words sent more shivers into my body, filling m
Claire.I didn't even know where it had all began, whether it had been from the hospital or from the cab we just alighted from. My mind was swimming in ecstasy, hands searching for places in Carlo's body to explore, brain blank but echoing with the feeling of his hands under my thighs, hot and promising and not the least deterred by the short I was putting on.My eyes danced with a merger of love and lust blinded by it so much that nothing else made sense nor mattered. I couldn't even remember anything but his presence beside me, domineering and sexy, making me feel more loved than I had ever felt in my entire life. How we had escaped the hospital was a wonder to me. All I remembered were his touches that tingled my skin with pleasures and that kept multiplying tenfolds with his fast moving fingers. My mind was dazzled with just the fire in his eyes, burning so fiercely that it was enough to roast a cow.We were already crashing into our room, mouth plunged in each other's and hand
Claire.I drew my fingers hastily from Theodore's arms, wincing at the pain that seared it. How could he have been so savage? Anger bristled in my chest and my head banged musically from the struggle.Carlo was already by my side, tending to it and casting sharp furious looks at Theodore with each bruise he found on my fingers. I could feel the electic-charged raw anger that flowed through both of them and could hear their laboured breathing. The tensed environment grew worse as they both clenched their fists at the same time, glaring hard at each other and pouring a truckload of carbon dioxide on me.I nudged Carlo to pull him out of the rage but he only noticed me flippantly.The last thing I wanted was for Carlo's name to be stained together with Theodore's. It didn't matter that it would portray him as a weak man. As long as it wasn't something suiable by law, I was okay with it. I averted my eyes to Mrs. Grayson and she was still staring at the camera in a gape, her face scarle
Giancarlo.My head reeled with so many obscene thought but the most prevalent was the thought of murder. My mind danced with another good idea, an answer to the reeling in my head. The idea of squeezing all the devilish wickedness in her soul untill she vomited them out and repented from her wickedness."Of course we're most grateful to you for adding yourself to the witness list," she added and I was certain I would lunge forward and bite her head off, ground it perfectly into dust and spit it out on Theodore.My lips quivered, moving up and down as I breathed rage in and out and my skin burned fierily with her confidence in telling me to watch as my fiancee married someone else. My intestines entangled with my kidney as the mocking smile she and Theodore shared did not waver one bit, enlarging the more as they saw anger simmering in me.Claire stirred and everyone turned to her, each person having his own intentions towards her. She looked like sleeping beauty awakening from her s
Giancarlo.The crawling car finally arrived at the hospital after two business days and I couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. More because my worries were to be satisfied than because of their tortoise speed. I thanked them for the ride with gritted teeth and hurried away. I recognized grandpa Ettore's security as two were just stepping out."Where's she?" I asked breathlessly, eyes scanning everywhere as if I would find her hanging around."VIP room 2," one of them replied and I rushed in, almost pushing a pregnant lady down. Let her be fine please! I begged under my breath as I navigated my way through the hospital, panting heavily like a dog. After much running, I finally got to the room.Grandpa and Lorenzo were in already alluding to the fact that the police van had taken more than a week to get me to the hospital. "She's fine," Lorenzo said after taking one look at me. "She just fainted from shock. She's sleeping now," he tried calming me but I wouldn't have it. I wen
Giancarlo.My heart ripped into two and hands trembled epileptically as Claire disappeared from the rail. Oh God, let it not be that she had fallen. Let it be that my eyes were failing me. My mind went wild with the fear and my nose suddenly found the oxygen around too suffocating. My brain thumped hard as the world spun continuously, stopping to remind me that time couldn't freeze.I rushed in a jiffy to the rail to see if something had happened, if she was peehaps suspended on air or if there would be some miracle, any trick that would stop her from falling.I looked down, eyes wary in search and blood flooding my face as I checked every angle. My mouth grew bitter and my teeth chattered with the ice cube of fear and panic making my mind reel with anxiety as I kept searching.I could barely breathe without feeling a ragging in my heart, pulling all the strings of emotions together and tying them to my ribcage. My hands clasped hard on the rail, as I continued the search, looking u
Claire.Even as the thought filled my head, I rebuked it almost immediately, hating myself for even thinking of it. There were so many things I wanted to do and dying had suddenly paled out of the list. Dying would mean that I would never feel the fire in my body whenever Carlo's palms grated my skin and that I had renounced the shivers that always ran pleasurably down my spine with just a light caress from him.It would mean that I would never see Carlo again and never accept his massive dick into my pussy that always grew wet whenever there was little problem to worry about and that I would have to cut short my future and everything at the young age of 25 even before I had married the love of my life!!!Certainly even if I had gone haywire I wouldn't be stupid enough to do it. Life was too short to kill myself.I kept eyeing the guards for them to back out, fear shearing my heart and numbing my mind from all other emotions as the wind blew dangerously at my hair, sending wisp flyin
