"Please come out now Venessa, we will be late" I heard Penelope yelling from my bedroom. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and felt a little uncomfortable in this dress. "Can you give me another dress, this one is a bit slutty" I yelled back. The dress was Black and kinda shiny clothes with low sleeves and a low plunging V-neck with high slits below the waist. The back plunged low showing my entire skin. "No, it's Not. Come out now, or I'll break this door," She yelled, I rolled my eyes and walked out and stood in front of her."See? This is too slutty," I said, turning around and showing off the dress to Penelope. I glanced at Penelope to see her simply standing there with wide eyes."You look so beautiful," she said, admiring me.I smiled at her, "Thank you… but this is too revealing," I complained. She smiled at me, "No Ven, it fits you perfectly and you look gorgeous...Trust me." She made me sit and did my make up and hair. After that she made me stand up "Let's go, we
"Enzo," I whispered while looking at him talking to the woman. He was smiling, and I saw that he was…happy. The spark in his eyes, while he was talking to her, was visible from where I'm sitting. It made me turn my head in another direction so that I couldn't see them. I hid my tears from the people around me. The hurt was hurtful for me to control. I had been waiting for him for days and now I see him with another woman, Smiling and enjoying her company. It hurts, It hurts so much. I gripped the hem of my dress tightly to control myself. I tried to forget that I'd seen him here with other women. I tried so hard to erase it from my mind but it keeps on popping in my head. My head was burning with all the thoughts of him with her living happily in his mansion. I don't know why but all this stupid thought running in my head. I tried to convince myself that, No, she might be his friend or relative. But my mind refuses to believe it. "Venessa?" I turned to the one who called and saw Pe
He smirked and moved back, suddenly I felt someone's gaze on us. I gulped and tried to ignore it. My grip on his hand tightened. He sensed my nervousness and moved me even closer to his body. "Are you okay?" He whispered, I looked at him and shook my head. He took my hand in his and walked us out of the dance floor. He was walking us through the people to the backyard. We were about to walk but suddenly Nikolai stopped walking and was released from his grip. Curiously I moved forward and came face to face with Lorenzo. He was looking at Nikolai with a very calm expression on his face, The look on his face was deadly. If I was Nikolai, I would've run from him but Nikolai was staring at Enzo with the same intensity. There was something in between them which made others around them alert. Like any moment they may kill each other. The tension between them was felt and it's kinda scary. Both are off the same height and if they stand in front of each other, it's very intimidating to watc
"What's cooking in that little head of yours?" Nikolai asked while folding his hands against his chest. "Nothing," I said, shaking my head. He raised his thick eyebrow, With an intimidating stare. "I have a plan, and I need your help to execute it," I said,"What plan?" He asked with the same expression on his face."I..." Before I could tell him, I was cut off by Penelope's voice."What are you guys doing here?" She asked while walking towards us. Turning to Nikolai she said."People are asking you Nik" He nodded his head and gave a last glance at me and walked off. I moved my eyes back to Penelope who was glancing at me and Nikolai who was walking inside. The corner of her lips formed a smirk. "What?!" I asked, Confused at her smirking face. She shook her head and said "Nothing...We should go inside" I nodded and walked inside with her. Inside, everyone is still dancing and busy in their own little world. Penelope and I walked towards the bar and sat down on the chairs. "Hot da
His eyebrows and his features moved back to normal when he noticed my condition. He raised his hand to touch my cheek, but suddenly someone grabbed my wrist. I turned to see Nikolai. His face radiated fury, his clenched jaw, furrowed eyebrows, and his grip on my hand. I glanced back at Enzo, he was staring at our hands and his jaw clenched. Gritting his teeth, "leave!" He said. I tried to get my hand out of Nikolai's hold, but his grip was hard. In the gap, George tried to get up but both Nikolai and Enzo pulled their guns out and pointed at him. I was standing in between them, scared and my body shaking terribly. Enzo was pointing the gun at George with his left hand and Nikolai with his right. Turning to me, Enzo took my hand in his and pulled me to him. But Nikolai didn't leave my hand. Enzo glared at him and said, "Leave Vasiliev!" He said in a low and dangerous voice. "She's coming with me,!" He said, holding my wrist firmly. In just swift motion, Enzo's gun was pointing at N
I stared at the knife, and my mind was having many negative ideas. My tears stopped flowing through my eyes and all I saw was the knife lying on the table. I slowly stood up from the ground and with my shaky legs I walked towards the table. I licked my lips and wiped my tears.I grabbed the knife, my hands were shaking so badly. Tears of pain and anger started to flow through my eyes. I threw the knife away with full force."..I can't do it," I cried out as I fell down on the ground.My body hit the ground while making a thud sound. I laid there like that, I cried and cried and cried myself to sleep.*****I woke up to the sound of someone knocking on the door; I rubbed my eyes to adjust them to the sunlight pecking from the windows. I sat up and was shocked to see myself on the bed with a soft mattress laying on me.I glanced at the ground where I slept last night. "How did I end up on the bed?" The question popped up in my mind.**Knock**I rubbed my forehead with my fingertips whil
I glanced at Nikolai, He moved his eyes from that person to me. When his eyes landed on me, his eyes showed worry. It confused me. What is he worried about? With confusion, my eyes moved to the person, He slowly turned towards me and When my eyes met his everything around had stopped. It felt like the world had entirely stopped at the moment."Enzo?" I whispered.He was staring at me without any trace of emotion on his face. But his eyes, I can see something in them. Is it adoration or sadness? I couldn't clearly understand. I glanced at Nikolai to see him staring at me, "What's happening?" I asked.He glanced at Enzo and moved his eyes back to me, "I called him...You're going back...With him," He said, "What!" I, Penelope, and Alan said in union. We looked at each other, Tears were rolling in Penelope's eyes. It made me sad to see tears in her eyes. I turned towards Nikolai, That Woman, and Enzo flashed in front of my eyes. All the things that happened in the party flashed in my min
He walked around the car and climbed inside the back seat beside me. His clenched jaw and his clenched fist revealing his nerves and the way his eyes were narrowed made me frightened to look at him. I moved my eyes off him and turned to the window. I watched the busy streets of New York through the window and sighed. Paul drove us to the airport. We got out of the car and walked to his private jet. The air hostess welcomed us with their sweet smile. We got inside and sat far from each other avoiding eye contact with each other. I was looking outside the window trying to forget everything and relax my mind. All of a Sudden, A thought rushed to my brain. He said he moved on right! Let's see whether he truly moved on. I smirk when I think of what I'm going to do. I turned my head to look at Enzo who was staring at his laptop. I stood up earning his full attention now; I pushed my hair back and took the glass of juice which was placed on the stand. I pressed the edge of the glass to my
“H..How do you know?” I asked him with tears flowing down my eyes,He walked towards me with a smile on his face while I was staring at him with tears freely flowing down my eyes.He sat on his one knee and took my hand in his, his eyes were sparkling with happy tears rolling in them, “Do you really think you could hide it from me?” he asked with a lite smirk on his lips. I chuckled at his question, “Yeah, Enzo will find everything,” I replied shyly, he chuckled at my remark.“Thank you so much for making me the happiest person on this planet,” He said while kissing my hands while smiling the whole time unable to express how happy I was.“I love you,” He whispered as he placed his head against my belly and placed a kiss, I was so happy and excited for our baby.“Okay, but how do you know that it's a princess? It could be a princess too,” I said, looking at him with a smirk on my lips.“NO! It's a princess, that’s it!” He said in a way that it’s a bad idea to have a boy like him, I jus
VANESSA'S POV.6 MONTHS LATER,“I don’t know, Beth!..I..I’m scared,” I said as I was looking around,“Don’t be afraid Ven, just tell him!” she said from the other side,“I’m nervous,” I replied as I rubbed my sweaty hands to my top.“Don’t be, Ven!” she said and hung up on me, I placed my hand over my chest and took a deep breath as I was very nervous to tell him this.I turned around and walked out of the room towards his study room, even though I tried to not be nervous but I was nervous to tell him this. Since it's been days that I hid this from him, Beth advised me to tell it before it's too late.I walked towards his study room and knocked on it, “Come in,” he said,I pushed the big wooden door and walked in, I saw him turn his back as he was speaking on the phone, “Do that!..yeah,...okay I'll call you back!” he replied and turned towards me while keeping his phone inside his pocket, he looked happy. He walked straight to me and claimed my lips, I kissed him back while placing my
We walked to the dining table and sat in our chairs, Judy placed a bowl for Dimitri and placed his breakfast. He growled, looking at Enzo. He didn't like him much because last time when Enzo went to Nikolai's place Dimitri saw him shouting at Nikolai and from then Dimitri hated Enzo.Even today, he growls at him, whenever he tries to come closer to Nikolai Dimitri jumps on him.Yes, this happened last time when Nik brought him here. As they were leaving, Enzo moved to Nik to hug him and Dimitri lunged at Enzo, he made Enzo run back to me. I had lifted Dimitri up in my arms and taken him out to the garden. It took an entire one hour for me to relax him.Judy served us breakfast and everyone was having their breakfast calmly, I glanced at the main door while having my breakfast. I sighed and looked at my plate with a sad expression on my face,"Don't worry, they'll be here before, your graduation ceremony," he whispered, noticing my sadness.I smiled at him, but I was still sad that the
TWO YEARS LATER, “Enzo,” I yelled as I walked from the walk-in closet, today was my graduation day and Enzo promised he would come with me to the ceremony but he was still sleeping like a baby boy. I walked towards the bed while wearing my earrings, I grabbed the pillow and hit him with it, “Enzo, get up!” I yelled and hit him again with the pillow, “Ah!!” I screamed as he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me onto the bed, he pinned me down and climbed on top of me, “I need my morning snack,” he said as he raised my top and moved his head under it, he began placing kisses on my chest. “Oh! Enzo,” I tried to pull him out of my top, but he pinned my hands on the top of my head and began kissing the upper part of my breast and my cleavage, I moaned out loud as he placed his other hand on my stomach and began moving his finger around my belly button. “Enzo, we will be late....We’ll continue this after the ceremony!” I whispered, he kept on kissing my neck and stomach, “Enzo!
“Boss, to your right!” I heard John yelling from behind, I ran to my right side of the corridor and then I saw her. I stopped in my tracks as I saw her, she was laying on the floor at the end of the corridor while her hands were tied. My breathing stopped looking at the way she was laying on the floor. “Venessa!” I screamed as I began running towards her, tears were rolling down my eyes as I was running like my life depended on it. I was just a few meters away from her but I suddenly hit myself with some invisible mirror in the way, I fell back because of the sudden hit. Blood began flowing down from my nose, My head began spinning and I couldn't even stand up on my own. Every time I tried to stand up and I fell back again, I slammed my fist against the mirror but it wasn't breaking.“v..Ve...Ven..essa!” I whispered while I placed my head against the big mirror, Nothing was clear to me. Everything was blurry, “Venessa,” I whispered as I tried to get by pressing my hands against the m
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, You need to act like her now, Enzo. This is the only option you have now to know what she is up to. I thought to myself and opened my eyes and glanced at her with a smirk as one good idea stuck my mind, “I have a deal,” I said with a smirk playing on my lips, I watched her quietly as she strolled over the desk and sat on the edge of the desk resting her right leg over my left.“What made you think that I would listen to your deal,” she said with annoyance evident in her voice. “I know you would,” I said with a wider smirk on my face because I was making her irritated, She averted her gaze towards Seth, on the chair, “Tell me” she said in an uninteresting tone making me even happier that my idea was working. I began walking towards her, maintaining my charms to make her week and it was working, The look on her face was telling me that. As I was walking closer to Veness who was sitting on the desk, I felt something very strange. I don’t k
All of a sudden, all the lights of the room were switched on making us close our eyes. It took a few seconds for us to adjust to the bright lights. I glanced at Nikolai to see him at the other side of the room, and John was the opposite side, I looked at the front and when recognized the woman standing in front of me in a long black strapless dress with a deep back with her soft black hair which was neatly laid down and she was standing with her back to me, the world around me stopped.I felt like there was no air in the room, “Venessa?” I whispered.Hearing me she turned around and my breath hitched looking at her gorgeous face, I couldn’t believe that she was my Venessa. Her red lips with smoky eye shadow and those pink cheeks, she was a completely different person. Her dress was very revealing for my liking, I didn’t understand who she was?. Because my Venessa would never wear this kind of sluty dress and makeup, the situation we are in she wouldn’t dress up like this. I glanced a
I glanced at the building and sighed, “Fine!, what’s the plan,” I asked, I was very impatient to go inside and get my Venessa back. “Boss, you’ve already been hit, we will cover you and Nikolai’s men will wipe Boris’s men out…(he glazed at the laptop.) as per the tracker… Venessa is…. On the top floor,” he said, I glanced at Nikolai to see whether he was okay with the plan! Even though he seems okay to me, I asked, “What do you think?” he looked at me for a sec without saying anything and slowly began nodding his head, “It’s good, but our first priority is Venessa, we should first find her and get her out of this place and then our men will find where Boris is! We will come back and kill him… and I will also cover you, My men will wipe them out,” he said while opening the car door. I didn’t know how to react to his words but I knew he would die for me since he’s my brother. I opened the door and walked around the car, immediately my men and Nikolai surrounded me. It was an old count
Thinking about it I tripped and was about to fall down but in time Nikolai caught my shoulder and held me, “Enzo!” he yelled, helping me stand up. “What is wrong with you?” Nikolai shouted at me while helping me sit on the bed, he handed me a glass of water and helped me drink it. I drank it whole and placed it on the table, “This was the reason I’m asking to stay Enzo,” Nikolai said, “I can’t sit here, Knowing my wife got kidnapped by that son of a bitch,” I yelled at him before he could say anything the doctor walked in with an unimpressed expression on his face. We all glanced at him, he walked to us dragging a chair with him. He placed the chair in front of me and sat on it. He looked at all of the people present in the room, “Can I talk to these two please,” he said, looking at me and Nikolai, hearing him, My men and Nikolai’s men walked out of the room leaving Nikolai with the doctor and me.After they left us, the doctor looked at us and took a deep breath,” Mr. Francisco, wh
