Alessandro’s POV "Mister Superhero!" Leo yelled as I walked, well, limped toward them with my crutches.Seeing his cheshire grin made the whole ordeal I had undergone today worth it.Liam stood beside Catherine with a shy smile plastered to his face.His mum on the other hand had a nasty glare darted at me which I returned with a smile."Hello, Catherine," I greeted her. "The tw-""So you're the infamous superhero, huh?" She scoffed. "How ironic. With everything that you did to me, do you think you deserve to be called a superhero? If anything, you're a super jerk."If I said Catherine's words didn't have an effect on me, I would be lying to myself.I had always known that I had little to no hope of ever getting her back, but the way she had stared at me with disgust as she spat those words made my heart cut.Her eyes shone with vitriolic hatred as her glare on me became more intense.The ability to form an intelligent statement momentarily escaped me as I stared at her.Fuck, why di
Alessandro’s POV "Take me to Lennie." I instructed my driver, as I plopped onto the backseat of my Range rover.Lennie was the name of the kindergarten that the twins attended.Marco had found out about everything that was related to the place for me, a few days ago.Four days had passed since I was discharged from the hospital, and now, I was completely healed.I didn't have a need for either crutches or the large plaster of paris anymore.The fact that Catherine had really visited me still felt like a dream, no matter how many times I thought of it.Hell, she had even remembered my favorite stew and had cooked and brought it for me.The same Catherine that told me off for saving Liam and Leo.The same Catherine that glared at me and cursed me out.I had no idea what could have brought the sudden change in her, but I loved it.She had even apologized for speaking rudely to me, when I was and would always be the one in the wrong.I was the one that needed to kiss her feet and apologi
Catherine’s POV "Good afternoon, ma'am. How may I help you?" A young female receptionist uttered as I walked to the reception desk."Afternoon," I said, stifling the ire bubbling within me with a tight smile. "I'm here to see Alessandro.""Do you have an appointment with him?" She asked, and I shook my head.Fuck, I had forgotten that his company had very tight security.You could only see him if you had an appointment with him.The first and only time that I came here in the past, I had met a different receptionist who had mocked me when Alessandro refused to see me, even after I told the receptionist to tell him that I was his wife."It's really urgent," I said, and without waiting for a response, I trekked toward Alessandro's office."You can't go in, ma'am," The receptionist protested, as she trailed behind me, but I just ignored her and flung the door to Alessandro's open, without knocking.He was having a discussion with a middle aged man that I had never seen before.On seeing
Catherine’s POV "My drink has finished," I slurred, sliding the empty glass cup toward the bartender. "Give me more. I told you to give me the strongest mixture you have but you gave me something mild. I could sue you for not heeding to my instruction, you know?"The bartender, a young man in his early twenties, darted me a fed up look."Do you have anyone who you can call, ma'am?" He asked. "You're not in a condition to go home on your own at all.""Who said anything about going home?" I drawled. "There's nobody at home. Liam and Leo are currently having a sleepover at the daycare.""You'll have to go home eventually, Miss, and I'm really worried for you," He said, pouring a mixture into my cup.The moment I tasted the drink, I spat it out and darted the bar man a glare."You gave me soda?" I muttered, my throat burning as a result of the many mixtures of alcohol that I had consumed in the past one hour.After meeting with Lucas's mother to give her the news of her child's death, I
Catherine’s POV I giggled as Alessandro bit my lower lip to gain thorough access into the warmth of my mouth.Wild flames of erotic desire coursed through me like fire on dried leaves, as he ran his hands down my back and stopped to grab the round firmness of my butt.My pussy was wet and my panties was soaked in a copious amount of sensual juice.I wanted Alessandro so bad at that moment.I wanted his long fingers scissoring me to the crest of immense erotic fulfillment while his dexterous tongue worked my clit and left me longing and moaning for his huge cock.Gosh, I had truly missed his hands all over my body."Please," I whimpered into his mouth, as he squeezed my ass.Smirking, he broke the kiss and licked my helix which sent a great spark of sensual need coursing through my veins. "What do you want, baby?""You," I mewled, craning my neck to grant him access to every part of my ear. "I want you to fuck me."Although I was extremely drunk, I still knew that I shouldn't be doing
Alessandro’s POV As I rounded up my work for the day, my phone rang with an incoming call.One glance at the caller id showed me that it was an unknown caller, so I decided to let it ring.However, the person kept calling which caused my mind to dwell on the delusional possibility that Catherine was calling.On the fifth ring, I decided to answer the call, while inwardly hoping that I hadn't thought wrong."Alessandro," My mother's voice wafted into my ears, and for a fleeting moment, I considered hanging up on her, but I repressed that urge and locked my jaw."Mother," I muttered."I have been calling you for a while now with my other numbers but none of them went through, so I decided to use my new line," She explained. "How are you doing?""Good," I answered curtly. "Is there a reason as to why you called?""Right, I almost forgot," She sighed. "Your grandmother mentioned something but I wanted to confirm. Is it true that Catherine is her doctor?"I knew this day would come.Mothe
Catherine's POV What was I thinking? What the fuck was I possibly thinking? What was wrong with my head? Those were the thoughts that ravaged my mind as I restlessly paced my bedroom. What happened to the decision to ignore Alessandro's existence and never let him get close to me? How could I have been so stupid on two occasions? As if fucking him wasn't bad enough, I had also let him finger me to a breathtaking orgasm earlier today. Although I hated to admit it, the orgasm had calmed my raging nerves and I had smoothly carried out three surgeries today. But that was beside the point, having carnal affairs with a jerk like Alessandro was the worst thing I could possibly do. Raking my hands through my hair, I exhaled heavily as my brain unhelpfully replayed the whole thing in my head; how good his dexterous fingers had felt thrusting in my slick warmth and how sexy he had looked smirking at me as I came. I needed to stop thinking about him before I shoved myself into an even w
Catherine's POV “You look pretty today, Dr Williams,” A veteran cardiologist, Dr Abel, complimented me, as I walked into the lunchroom to make myself a sandwich. Shit, I thought inwardly, trying to think of what atrocity I had committed that day that the universe was punishing me for. You see, Dr Abel was a well-known womanizer in tender care. Hell, I had barely spent a week working before he came to my office with a gift hamper stating that he wanted to hang out with me. I had politely declined his offer and walked him out, with the excuse that I wanted to go and pick up my sons. You'd think the old geezer would have read in between the lines to decipher that I didn't want anything to do with him. But he didn't, he had even offered to take me there. Can you imagine? If that wasn't shamelessness at its height, I had no idea what else it was. “Thanks,” I said, then averted my gaze from him to grab the packet of slice bread from the refrigerator. When I looked back, I sa
