GinevraAfter the club visit, the best and the worst I ever witnessed, equally, Ruggerio and Elisabetta spend a lot of time with visits to their family.I still couldn’t help my heart to feel heavy as I woke up in the morning and found myself cuddled against Ruggerio. We spent the night sleeping on a couch while checking on my brother and I cannot believe that he did that for me. He was so exhausted the next morning and the dark circles under his eyes showed me that he must have been up even longer than I did. Still, he acted like he did nothing and said that he fell asleep before I did as my perfume was so lulling to him.He is such a bad liar. Federico did return to his usual self after the night.Well… nearly his usual self. He was slightly quieter and even more pensive. Even if he still abstained from telling me what happened, I got him to assure me that nobody hurt him or drugged me several times more. That was OK for me. He would tell me as soon as he would feel ready to. Unti
Ginevra Our heads snap simultaneously to the intruder and I retreat my hand abruptly shifting on my feet, while Ruggerio takes a step forward, covering me partially. “I have been looking for you everywhere!” Salvatore wears one of his creepy smiles as he steps closer to us, his arms open wide. “I didn’t interrupt you, did I?" Ruggerio’s demeanor changes totally as he confronts his brother. “What are you doing here, Salvo?” “I heard you came here without me, and I took a flight to join you. Aren’t you happy, brother?” The tone in his voice itself signals me that he didn’t follow us out of brotherly love. There is something quite disturbing in how he speaks about being left behind. He walks straight to me, wanting to grab my hand. “I’m Salvo, hi.” Before he is holding it fully, Ruggerio has already snatched my hand out of his again. “Why are you here, Salvo?” “What? I was looking for you guys.” He points at me as he adds, “Your brother told me you were out, and I wanted to have a n
Ginevra My shoulders slump defeatedly and I’m about to cry as Tommaso walks towards me with long strides. Taking a step back, I have to force myself to keep standing and not to run back out down the hallway. Oh, what I would give to get away from here. His happy face morphs into a displeased expression swiftly, before he regains it. I look at Ruggerio shortly before lying my eyes back on my fiancé. His expression is so gruesome that it pains me. Taking another step to take my hands in his, Tommaso sighs, feigning happiness. “Finally, I get to see you again. Didn’t you miss me, my dear?” Feeling like my skin is going up in flames as if his touch was giving me a terribly icky rash, I take a deep breath, trying to steady my voice. I gulp before I force a smile and a “sure.” up my throat. Being immensely proud of myself and happy that I didn’t vomit while speaking to him while he holds me, I let my smile grow. I suppress the urge to finally snatch my hands out of his hold and contin
Ginevra The night I supposedly got my love confession interrupted by my love interest’s brother and my fiancée showed up to surprise me, was officially the night my paradisal holiday transformed into the first circle of hell. Hello and welcome back, over-dramatic me. Just give me some credit, OK? I have a lot to counterbalance. I don’t see Ruggerio anymore and don’t even get a text from him. In exchange for that, Elisabetta is suddenly back to be at my side 24/7. Even though my brother told me to keep still and not contact him, I text Ruggerio several times. He did this once for me and now it’s my turn to show him that I miss having him around, even if it’s risky. Ginevra: My cravings for something sweet are getting worse. Maybe we could catch breakfast like the last time? Ginevra: I can’t wait to see you again. Even if it’s just on our flight back. Unfortunately, he never answers, but I don’t give up. Due to Tommaso’s toxic behavior, I don’t get to leave the house as much as
Ginevra “Babe!” I turn around with a smile as soon as my brain recognizes who the husky whisper belongs to. “Why have you been ignoring me?”Ruggerio presses a chaste kiss on my lips and sits down beside me at the table.“Forgive me. Your brother thought it was for the better as we didn’t want to provoke Tommaso and get you hurt.”“It’s OK. I guess I deserved getting ghosted a little bit myself.”“Bs, babe. You know exactly what you would have deserved, and we were so close.” He smirks at me, and I push him lightly while pursing my lips.“Such a pervert.” Just as he is about to say something more, the woman enters the kitchen again. She shouts against Ruggerio, telling him to let me eat in peace.“Yeah, yeah.” Ruggerio murmurs while he starts filling his plate with food. I chuckle light-heartedly and finally start to dig in.As soon as the amazing taste of the food expands in my mouth, I hum delightedly. “Oh, this is so good. Thank you so much.”Finally, I get the woman to smile and
Ginevra “Champagne?”Elisabetta takes her glass offered by the flight attendant with a big smile while I decline it with a smile. And it seems to be the right decision as Tommaso is already glaring at me from the seat positioned opposite to ours.I concentrate back on my magazine and hear the flight attendant move forward gifting every passenger with a glass of bubbly gold. Even Tommaso is pinching the stern awkwardly while talking to my brother and I take a deep breath, lowering my eyes.As expected, everyone is on this flight.Well, everyone except Ruggerio.As Tommaso came to Rome to find us with Ruggerio’s brother, the family clearly had nothing against us taking the Paridio family’s jet to fly back together. Although, I don’t think it’s theirs, they just chartered it.They aren’t the high and mighty Capoletti, after all. I was stressed out about the fact of having to face a nearly 9-hour flight trapped in a limited space with my soon-to-be-husband and probably even having to si
Ginevra Holding my breath, not wanting to disclose myself, I type my message into the app and push the button on my bracelet, having it delivered to his. A loud laugh resounds from the seat behind me, and I turn around with a glare. White. The fuck you are. “What the hell?! You were giving me a heart attack.” “Sorry, babe.” He is smirking up at me, with his hand propped leisurely on his hand. The way he wears the black shirt and grey pants is already making me go into a daze. “What are you doing here? And why is everyone sleeping except us?” Ruggerio just smirks, still staring at me. “How would I know?” “Ruggerio, what did you do?” He shrugs, lifting his hand to flip his brother’s temple with his index finger. “No need to panic, beautiful. They are just sleeping a very deep and comfortable sleep.” I open my hands up, looking at him agape. “How?” “Well, you know how it is. The bubbly champagne. The gentle light. The lulling vibrations of the plane. A few benzodiazepines.”
Ginevra I risk having an orgasm just at him saying that and I push my ass in his direction, granting him greater access to my throbbing pussy. Fortunately, he takes the invite right away and starts spreading my folds, plunging his warm tongue into me. From the angle that he is licking me, he reaches me deeply, having me going absolutely crazy. As I moan uncontrollably, he even increases the rhythm of his strokes, having me come undone within seconds. As I come on his face, long and hard, I clench the bedsheets with a loud moan. Ruggerio lets me ride out my orgasm pleasurably with gentle licks, as if he wanted to clean me out completely. As I want to lift myself off his face, he wraps his hands around my hips, pulling me down again. He places a kiss on my clit, sucking it between his lips shortly. “Ruggerio, no. Wait, that’s too much.” Turning his body, to lean against the bed and lies his head on the mattress, he lets go of me just shortly, before hugging me tightly, burying his fac
My lovely readers I hope you enjoyed my debut novel and the extra chapters. I am very happy to have been able to share this incredible journey with you and am currently looking into the possibility of doing a spin-off about Elisabetta and Alexander. If it will work out, you’ll know :D Be certain to follow me on the socials by finding me with my full name to get all my updates. In the meantime, I will leave that little sneak peek of my planned sequel below. Much love, Shelagh ’s business, the twins want to go to New York and regain the legacy their parents lost by marrying for love. After traveling to New York under false pretenses, they are ready to take what would belong to them as a birthright. But as soon as they find themselves between the Monteccos and Capolettis in the huge metropolis, they find out soon enough about where thei
Federico “Good afternoon, Mr. Montecco. How was your flight?” Alfredo greets me with a smile as he holds open the door of the limousine. “It was alright, Alfredo. Thank you very much.” I take a deep breath as I settle into the backseat, and Alfredo drives off. It’s not that I’m not looking forward to finally seeing my sister again, but work and the planning of my upcoming trip are taking a toll on me, making me want to just drop everything and depart a month prior than scheduled. Locking my phone after answering a few emails I got during the flight, I put it back into my inside pocket and open the newspaper I was trying to read all along. But of course, I don’t get too far as we seem to reach the mansion my sister is living in with her husband at lightning speed. “Thank you, Alfredo,” I say, as he opens the door for me and goes to fetch my luggage. I have barely stepped out of the car as I see the entrance of the beautiful home before me open and my sister steps outside with a s
Elisabetta “What the hell?!” Ginevra says as we drag her into the room with her wedding dress.It had been a struggle to bring her onto a plane, and through New York. I guess that the fact that we had everything private, like the jet and the chauffeurs, saved us from a lot of trouble.We had originally planned to drug her with some light sleep-inducing drug. But suddenly, Nina was against it and made us change our plans. So, we figured out the tactic of telling her that Ruggerio had left, leaving her at the altar, in order to get her onto a plane to New York. But as we started to tell her that she lost it completely.She kept screaming that she didn’t believe us and that she wanted to speak to him.Naturally, we couldn’t have her speak to him.As he was indeed waiting for her at the altar.So, plan C kicked in.Even if it should be called plan P, as it rose from the panic we felt at that moment.We overpowered her, and while our staff took all the packed things we needed to take with
Francesco “Did you hear from any of them?” Ruggerio asks me for the umpteenth time.“Yes, Ru. Nina just texted me. Your spouse is still alive.” I check my watch before flashing my grumpy best friend a grin.He looks ready to rip my head off my shoulders, but I will let it slip as he is losing his mind at how nervous he is.“Ready, bro?” I ask him, and he closes his eyes while taking a deep breath.“Yes!” He says, clearing his throat.I slap his arms, getting him to pull onto his sleeves again. He clicks his tongue as I chuckle at how cute he is.Wanting to look perfect for his bride.“Let’s go!”With another deep breath, we walk down the stairs and out of the gateway to reach the wedding venue with the hugely built patio where empty chairs and a floral bow are already waiting. It is breathtaking because of the view of a vineyard, but also because of its lovely decorations.It would have been the perfect place for them to get married.My heartbeat skyrockets as I am still unsure how h
ElisabettaRuggerio distorts his face, and again it is Nina who is the first to speak. “I guess they are still convinced that she is pregnant. Or hoping that it is the case by now…”Silence falls upon us as we stare at Hissy and Nina with a shocked expression.“She would lose the baby. Especially, as we are highly superstitious when it comes to these kind of things.” Hissy adds, getting us to stare at the packages gutted.Nina tears herself out of her trance, and whispers. “I have to talk to her.”As she disappears into the house, I turn to my brother who is already clenching his jaw. His stare doesn’t leave the door where Nina just disappeared through, even as I talk to him. “Ruru, don’t worry. We will get rid of them. But you should go now. Don’t let her think that you are worried as she will get more anxious.”By lying my hand on his arm, I lean in to get into his line of sight. He nods slowly, and before he gets steered away by Frank, he reaches into his pocket. Handing me a folde
Elisabetta It is rather comical how they had to tear my brother off that ladder to get him away from Ginevra that we are still laughing about it the next morning.Ginevra wipes the tears from her eyes and sighs. “Giving him a ladder has really been a bad idea.”“Ah, don’t act like you didn’t enjoy it. You had to be dragged in as well.” We laugh as Nina mocks Ginevra jokingly. “You are both so mental. It’s disturbing but also incredibly cute.”Ginevra pulls Nina close, pressing her grinning face against Nina’s cheek.Seeing Ruggerio and the interaction with him must have done her incredibly well. I am glad to see her in an easygoing mood as I had thought a few times that she seemed troubled because she was pale and apparently felt sick.And I guess that two days before your special day, it is just going to be worse.At one point, we even had trouble getting her to eat something, which worried Nina especially. But she kept saying that she was too nervous to eat and that she didn’t want
Fortunately, the next few days are hectic, keeping me from thinking too much about what happened. Or how it broke my heart. As the guests for the wedding start to arrive, we are too busy with the final preparations to even find a moment to talk when we meet at the venue. But he still keeps standing as closely as possible to me. Making me feel the worst pain I have ever experienced before. I guess that rejecting his offer broke my heart much worse than his first rejection as I asked him about what he felt for me on our first date. Or the things he told me in Paris about how we were just compatible when it came to fucking. Taking a deep breath, I follow one of the minions of the wedding planner crew to arrange the flowers on the patio of the rehearsal dinner. We are turning the vases and picking at the flowers without any sense as I hear him clear his throat behind me. He is really getting on my nerves with this quirk of his. “What do you want?” I ask annoyed without even raisin
As soon as I straightened back up again, I get lifted off my feet and carried into the adjoining room with the whirlpool. “What are you doing?!” I squeal, punching his chest. “Let me down.” “I just want a bit of privacy.” He answers with clenched teeth, as he puts me down. He closes the door behind us, and I cross my arms over my chest. “You have some nerves.” “Do I?” He smirks but lifts a brow as he looks behind me. “Why isn’t that thing going?” Shrugging, I look back at the empty tube shortly before turning back to look at him. “We never use this.” He hums, and passes me, starting to fill the whirlpool. “We are going to use it now.” “You are kidding, right?” I ask, clicking my tongue, but he is already undressing. Turning my head away from him, blushing like a little girl, I suddenly feel him tugging at my jersey. “I’d never kid about the possibility of seeing you naked.” “You must have lost your mind!” I say, making him chuckle. “Come on, Annie. I’ll keep my hands to mysel
Turning to Elisabetta and Hissy, I get back into my excitement about the upcoming ceremony.“And the dress?” Hissy asks in a whisper.Elisabetta pouts her lips. “I don’t know if it is going to work, but I managed to book a small room by the venue where we can do the change and all the make-ups.”“Oh, I can’t wait.” Hissy squeals, making me giggle.“She is going to cry so much these days. She is going to love it!” I chime in, and the two women nod with a broad smile.Successfully dodging another attempt from Frank to finally have our “talk”, I walk ahead of the two ladies as they continue to chatter along.As we finally get back to our vacation home, Ginevra is already standing behind the door, looking like she is about to burst.“And how was it?”I hug her, swaying slightly. “Oh, it is perfect. It looks soooo beautiful. The flowers and the view. It’s going to be fantastic.”“For real?” She asks, wiping a small tear from her eye. “I’m so glad. I’m so nervous.”“You look pale, babes. Do
