Perhaps I was already at her mercy. Perhaps I just needed to know what she felt about me, what she really thought of me. I just needed to know who I was to her."Giovanni..." she groaned. My heart melted at the groaning of my name. I could literally feel every part of my body move in alignment to the way she called out my name."Really, I do love you" she said.She did?!I felt a relief, as though something was lifted away from my shoulders, and all that remained on my face was just a smile."You've really been good and kind to me. But I don't just feel right.." she said to me I walked up to her, and I was okay if she was going to shift herself away from me again. She had already done that twice and I was quite used to it, and so I would take it that the previous night was going to be the first and perhaps the last I would be able to feel her skin against mine.But she stood still, and I was able to grabs her hand, and with my fingers, I tilted her chin upwards, making her eyes get
It was Giovanni! What.. the hell? How did he get here? Why was he here? He wasn't just here but he was with this man? Something tells me he wasn't up to any good. I couldn't understand the relationship between him and this Gomez man! Why...? I couldn't figure out the reasons for his actions, until I could finally give a recap of what had happened.I stared at his face, and all I could remember was that kiss which I still consider till date as an accident and something which happened based on how vulnerable I had made myself. I had made myself look like a fool, someone who was played by two different men. I had made up my mind to tell him how I felt and why I had chosen Starr over him a zillion number of times.I had explained myself to him, told him what I had felt about him. I had told him how I saw him as someone lovely, someone who could give out love in an unexplainable manner and how I had loved him as a great friend. I can't forget how he stood by me those days I was going thr
Giovanni's POVI thought twice of the decision I was going to make; setting her free from the bounded position she was in. And then I took the first step to free her, staring with her legs which I had told to the legs of the chair.But she didn't act according to how I had predicted her to act, perhaps kicking me right in the face. My beloveth was smart. She knew for sure that I would never free her hands if she had done something of such act.And then her hands were free, and she stood up immediately, heaving off a heavy smile as she massaged her hands with the other hand, before she laid her hands on me roughly.I could literally hear the reverberating sound of the palm of her hand colliding against my face, causing me to stagger for some seconds. I felt the hotness on my face, seeing stars which disappeared just before I could recognize their colours."I've always wanted to do that since I saw you today..!" She said to me."For sure you wanted to do such!" I said the same inside o
Starr's POVI hadn't heard from Arianna since she last stormed out. In all honesty, I was embarrassed and quite disappointed. Embarrassed that my past was shoved against my face again as though I was really a bad man despite the things I did to show how good I had been and how her love had transformed me wholly.Disappointed because I could believe it only had to be Giovanni who would have brainwashed her with the things which weren't true, having her believe in the things which never occurred in times I could remember.I stood from my bed with this sad expression on my face. Normally I would look towards my left and see her sleeping peacefully, most times smiling with the instincts of me staring at her, and when she wouldn't be able to handle the pressure, she would give off an early morning laughter that would make my day.But currently that left side of the bed was empty, and for the first time since I experienced what real love really was, I slept without the one who made me feel
Arianna's POV. My head seriously hurt me big time, and it was harder than the first I received for the day. I opened my eyes again, and as usual, after hours of hung to just stare into the darkness, all my visions were blurry. The light seemed too intense for my eyes, and I couldn't help but squeeze my face and my eyes while I tried shield then from the intense light. I was seated on a wooden chair which made my butt really ache, and I could feel a little bit of restriction again. I struggled to move, trying hard to set myself free, but what I had considered little was actually way tighter than the first time I was bounded to a chair. This time, my hands were curved backwards, and they were tied around the wrist, and my entire chest region was bounded too with the ropes around the chair. I tried to screen out, shaking myself free if that was ever possible, but it wasn't, and for the very first time I was about to scream for help, or possibly Giovanni's name, I could only hear muff
Starr's POVThere was only person I knew who could actually tell me the exact location of Giovanni, or possibly the exact set of people whom he worked with.It was practically impossible for Giovanni to actually execute his mission and his plans without the aid of people by his side.Where would he want to hide? He knew certainly what provoking a man like me could actually cost him and knew he needed someone to back him up when it came to the terms of battle.He was one who took pride in his skills. Certainly his skills were good, but if he ever thought he could match up to mine, then he lived in a fantasy world which I would tear down effortlessly.And how did he know about me and my past when he was just chosen as the beta of the pack recently? There could only be one of them, and I knew the price he would pay to get answers.Janette!.That old whore was one that moved like a snake moving on its belly. Good thing I was already there. For once I had thought of her, and then I had thi
I stepped in to see the woman who would have the slightest idea of where Giovanni would have been. See was seated right there, calmly around the table, her hands quite busy to scribble down things which were of no big concern to me.Once I watched as he hands slowed down, and how she immediately stopped, it could only mean that she had sensed my presence, and then she lifted up her face towards me with a smile that almost sent shivers down my spine.It was less intriguing as I used to consider it. At that point, even the tiniest creature who was in support of whatever Giovanni did, whether it was intentional or not was already an enemy of mine. She was never an exception.If she could have the discerning mindset, she would have scrapped off that smile on my face because what I had on my face was already the opposite of what she wore, and I cared less if she was excited to set eyes on me. "Alpha Starr.." she said as she stood from her chair, shifting the chair away from her with her b
Arianna's POVIt was Abigail! I rolled my eyes at the sight of her, unexplainably feeling quite relieved and relaxed."Really?" I asked with an eyebrow raised, staring at her and back at Giovanni as I rolled my eyes. Their sudden cooperation was a joke, almost making me laugh out even when I could feel pains."Abigail.! Really?" I asked again, still couldn't getting off the fact that the both of them were actually working together. It as quite very ridiculous, but slowly I would actually fish out the things which gave them this certain confidence to go with it.1"Hello Arianna! It's great to see you again" she said in a surprisingly ecstatic tone, smiling and then laughing with me as though there was something quite funny about it. "Wish I could say the same about you honey" I replied with an attitude from my side.I didn't want to make it seem as though the tiny boundary which restricted me from moving was really annoying me, but deeply, it really did annoy me."And first off.." I s
