When I reached home, I went straight to my dorm and first screamed into my pillow. I screamed for a good minute and then I pulled out my phone and texted Luciano to come and meet me for that date tonight. I know it’s sudden but I need need need to distract myself. And also I didn’t even get to ask my questions about the article because the evil witch that is Bella came into the conversation with the ‘I’m his girlfriend card’ and he pulled the ‘she’s no body’ card. I’m no one to you? I’m not even mad that he may have lead me on I’m mad that he didn’t even classify me as a friend. I mean really? He saw me as lower that unimportant that he called me a nobody? Ugh if that fucker was here right now, I’d deal with him with my hands. Luciano would never do that to me. I know that. He’s better than Vincent.

I stood up and went to go to the toilet but I stopped at the mirror curious to see what I look like. I look like I’ve just woken up. I checked my text messages and yes, he’s texted back. Th

    Luciano had come back home with me after the date and we’d spent time talking about anything and everything. It was nice. Luciano I realised is the only guy I’ve felt this good with. In a very long time. I’d taken a break from the dating pool after high school, I’d gotten into talking stages yes but those never worked out because sooner or later I’d just grown annoyed and disappointed with the amount of men who didn’t satisfy me. Not sexually but more like after a while, everything got bad. Every bad flaw about them was exposed and what I saw? It was certainly not pretty. In the middle of our conversation we’d heard a knock on the door. Luciano got up to go answer and when he opened the door I could sense the change in his body language, he seemed really pissed. I couldn’t see who was at the door exactly but I was feeling too euphoric from the date to care. Today was already bad enough so really any more bad stuff and I’ll break. He turned back to me. “I'll be right back. Stay here.”

    Gabriella's POV It's been a pretty rough couple of days, I mean of course how couldn’t it be? I’d already found out how awful Vincent is but then I find out there’s more? I find out that his brother who took me out on a date has been lying and using me like a game!? I mean who does that? I gave him a chance. I let him in my heart. I fricking gave him a second date so that he could prove that he wasn’t awful and he said things like ‘I’m willing to fight for us’ and ‘I want this’. It was everything I wanted to hear. It was all I needed to hear. I thought back to earlier in the hall. I wasn’t even going to go outside. I couldn’t hear much except for them talking, I wasn’t too interested because you know I was happy. My date with Luciano had gone amazingly and I was with the one I thought wanted me. I however got thirsty and went to grab a glass of water and as I did, I passed by the door in that exact moment, guess what I heard? Someone said the name ‘Bella’. I stopped in my tracks and

    I was at the club now and fuck, I gotta say, this is pretty nice, I haven't been here in a very long time. I immediately went over to the bar to grab myself a drink. I might as well buy the whole bottle to be honest. I plan on drinking out my feelings, no sorry drowning down my feelings tonight. I can't deal with the amount of times they keep coming in to my mind. My heart feels broken. I've grown more tired and pissed off by the tiniest interactions. My mom. She has no idea about it. I would tell her but she was so sure about Luciano. She was right though, he has a wall in his heart that someone will crack down; sooner or later. That person won't be me however. And she was right I really liked him. My eyes light up when I talk about him, I force it to go away when I start reminiscing on the happy memories we'd made together. He'd made me so happy but the thing is out of anyone else, he has brought me the most pain. I sit sometimes and cry. Cry because it all changed so quickly...why c

I was dumb before, like very very dumb.”“I agree with you.” I added. “I feel bad for what I did, I just... I want a second chance. Well, I mean you gave me one. Oh wow, I really could’ve done better. Can I get a third chance? You mean a lot to me, those few days without you were agony. Seeing you with my brother. I wanted to punch him in the face when I saw that...I wanted to be with you. I wanted to be in his place, I didn't want him to steal another person that I cared about from me. First Bella. Then my sister. And now you. I'm sorry that I yelled at you that day but I couldn't lose somebody else who I truly cared about to him not again. I could have dealt with everything better but do I regret saying yes to that bet. And here's why because I would have never got to meet you. I know that I haven't known you for a long but you have seriously changed me. You've opened my heart to s

    I reached the park earlier than the note had said and now I was just walking around aimlessly looking for something to do. I still have no idea what I'm going to say to this guy but I've never been a planner. I'll say what comes from my heart. I really hope that this does not get ruined. It seems like every damn time me and Luciano make up and have our good moments some bat shit crazy thing ends up happening and our plan gets ruined. Just then I heard someone calling my name, I turned hoping it was Luciano but my stomach dropped when I only saw Vincent. Great! What exactly does this guy want and what exactly is he doing here and how did he know where I would be?! I started walking away as fast as I could and pretending like I didn't see him but he caught up to me. "Go away Vincent just go away. I don't want to hear any bull shit that you have to tell me. I do not want to hear it ok? Do you get that? Huh? You’ve already caused so many issues for me. Leave.” I told him but he just stood

    "What you saw at the park Luciano, it wasn’t real. I was waiting for you and he saw me and came over, I tried telling him to go away but he wouldn’t listen to me. I was planning on leaving but then you came and Vincent kissed me, it was not the other way around and I never kissed that jerk back. I pulled away as quick as I could, please believe me. I would never do that to you. I know what you went through with Bella. I would never want to hurt you like she did.” "My brothers an asshole. He takes away something that I wanted, that I care for and to be honest I'm sick of it. I do care about you, of course I do, and I do like you but that’s why I guess it just hurts a thousand times more. Seeing you two kiss it's just a reminder that I still might lose you to him. Like I've always done with everything else. I know you don’t like him but, it brought me back to that day. When I caught Bella with Vincent in our house. They didn’t even have to decency to move it out of the house. She never

    "What are we?" He repeated. I have absolutely no idea."Well I'm not really sure...no one's asked anyone out officially that is"Ok then. Will you be...Will you be my girlfriend Gabriella Rosa?" A smile spread on my face. Will I be the girlfriend of Luciano Martini? "Hmmm, I don't know. I really don't know. Should I say yes to you? Is it worth it? Are you worth it Luciano? Hmmm. Yes. Of course I will Luciano. Just as long as this doesn't turn into a stupid bet again. Can you promise me that? Can I trust this promise?" "I promise you Gabriella that I will be the best boyfriend I can be to you and I promise that I am not using you for any bet And if I, at any point what so ever do end up being a jerk, amore mio I give you my full permission to make it known.""That's so sweet, don't worry I will make it very known that you are being a jerk if I need to. It's my strong suit. Let's hope that it won't happen too often though, I say too often because oh gosh Luciano you are a man that is m

    It is now the next day which means that today is the day that I get to meet Luciano's parents, and I am freaking out, I don't know how I am supposed to impress a billionaires parents. My parents never thought me any of this. This whole entire morning I’ve been nothing but nervous and scared and quite frankly freaking out. No one really teaches you any of this. I mean he is EMILIO MARTINI. A very powerful man, he has come from so far and he has a made a life for himself as one of the most richest men in Italy. The fact that he’s even known and well respected here and today I am meeting him? What if it all goes horribly? What if the plan fails? Oh shoot. The first time I meet my boyfriend’s parents is when I’m trying to make his other son jealous? Shit. Maybe this was all a bad idea, no no no. I breathed in a sigh and mentally slapped myself in the face. I did not just make this whole plan, get this big opportunity just to back out. I will just have to pray for the best at this point th

  • My Italian Billionaire    Prologue

    Moving to this city was the dumbest decision ever right? I'm Gabriella Rosa, freshly entering university in a new city where I know absolutely no one. I’m taking in a new start because I've just recently gotten myself out of a super trashy place that many call 'high school'. I so would not recommend. And after high school why don’t you take a quick guess on what I choose to do? I made a rash choice to move away to the big city and apply to a bunch of universities hoping I'd get in because why not? I need, craved a new experience. I could not stay at that horrible place any longer because I knew that I would not be able to get the old memories out of my mind. I rarely actually had a lot of friends, I’ve always been pretty to myself but I had 1 friend and about a few weeks before graduation what does she do? She ditches me to become 'popular'. Good for her. Truly. A little warning saying 'oh by the way cancel all of our plans together because I don't need you’ would have been real nice.

We're happy, in love. 48 years or 17,520 days or 575 months. All which has been pretty darn amazing. The younger us truly lived. He took me all over the world and because he knows how I'm in love with art I am he made sure to get me every peice I'd practically laid my eyes on that's how sweet and generous he is. I'll always choose him. He treats me like I'm practically a princess and I know that this story is practically like a fairy tale. He makes my life all seem like a fairy tale...Adrianna, Adrianna our beautiful daughter. Her dad has most certainly made up for all of the moments he's missed. If I do regret anything it's that. It's keeping them away from each other without trying or attempting to reach out to him I so badly regret that. But, what's done is done and now we can focus on the prese

    So, it's been 48 years since I first ever met and laid my eyes on my husband, Luciano Martini. A lot happened. It was the craziest love story I've ever experienced. There was pain. There was betrayal. There was love, passion and romance. We both made it into the glorious sixties and Adrianna...our daughter she's all grown up now. She's doing well in life, got herself a nice husband who loves her so much. They've got two adorable kids and me and Luciano have watched them grow too. I'm glad everything worked out. I'm glad I hoped on that plane. Now, I keep saying things such as 'there was' and talking in past tense...I owe an explanation for that. Well, I am dying. Years ago, I got a terminal illness that I'd managed to fight off for a while that is until now. I have less than an hour left to my life. An hour before I pass away and leave the precious life of Gabriella Martini goodbye. I'll never forget my first kiss. One of the popular boys in middle school, Brian. We were playing spin

    Five months later"He is going to be blown away when he sees you. You look just beautiful, just beautiful ok? I really couldn't have chosen anyone better to marry my dumbass brother. He's so lucky to have you." Amara said. Today was my wedding day, after five months of crazy intense planning it's finally the day. The day I, Gabriella Rosa marry the Luciano Martini...is this a dream? Because it feels like one. I really hope it's not...I remember when I first met him a weird yet intriguing try hard jerk who I'm now about to get married to. Life has a weird way of working out. The amount of things that we've had to go through just to reach this point never fails to amaze me. I mean we went on a date, and after every date I feel like something bad always ends up happening and even when certain people weren't for our relationship I'm glad I listened to my mom about everything. I just never thought that this one little work trip to Italy could’ve lead to our marriage.When we told Adrianna a

    Gabriella's POV"I don't know Amara, I think he's gonna pop the question tonight, I mean we haven't been out for like a month but I don't know. What do you think?""I don't know, I'm not your boyfriend but I think it would be great. Where are you guys going by the way?""I don't know he said it's a surprise but knowing him...anything is possible. I mean once he rented out a whole cinema so that we could have a date.""Damn that's how I know you're special for him. He never did that for anyone. I'd be happy if he decided to marry you." I turned around and hugged her."You would be the best sister in law ever!" I pulled away to look for through my outfits. "Can I get a little help here though?"------------ 5 Hours Later"Are you ready yet?" I heard Luciano say. "You look gorgeous as always...I'll never get tired of reminding you of that. I truly cannot wait to treat you tonight...You only deserve the best." With that he landed a kiss

    1 year laterIt's been about a year now and a whole lot has happened. For starters Adrianna has aged up and she's now 8. We recently just celebrated her big birthday. She's really growing up so quickly, I'm glad because of how everything turned out. I'm glad her dad is apart of her life now and that he's there for the moments that truly matter. I personally never thought that life could've even ended up this way. Her dad and me...Me and Luciano are still together in fact I decided to stay in Italy not only for me but also for Adri since she wanted to be closer to her dad. My life back in New York was ok but the only reason I'd stayed was because I couldn't afford to be travelling. I had to save money for Adrianna and our little family so I just got a little house and it was nice but I could only dream of a better place for us. Now we have it. It feels like every dream I've ever had Luciano has made them come true. We moved into Luciano's house and we have weekly dinners with Amara and

    At Luciano's HouseWe came to the house a little earlier than everyone to help set everything up and soon enough the guests all came in. We were now in the living room sitting in silence."Why won't anyone talk?" Adrianna whispered to me."It's been a while." I replied back, meaning it's been 7 years a while."So is that your kid?" Luciano's dad asked, "Which whore did you knock up this time?" Wow. So that is the first thing that you decide to say to someone? Children are here. "Dad watch it. There are children here." Amara said. "What does whore mean mama?" Adrianna asked Luciano's dad. What does whore mean!? Now he's got her saying whore and asking quite unnecessary questions that children don't need to know. Great. I hope this doesn't end up scarring her later on in life. "Ask your mother." My jaw dropped at why he would say that. I know that our first time meeting wasn't exactly the best but gosh what happened to simple I don't know respect? Money truly doesn't buy people class.

    Gabriella's POV"So Adrianna do you like him? Is he acceptable?" I asked eagerly and nervously waiting for a response. "Yes, he's good. So when's the wedding?" Me and Luciano almost choked on the food at her pure bluntness. One of her worst qualities sometimes."Wedding?" We both said at the same time. Kismet. "Yeah, he loves you so marry him momma." I looked over at him with an awkward smile because this is an awkward situation. "Well it's a bit early for that..." I answered. "Actually Gabriella, I didn't get to do this the other night but." Luciano stood up from his chair and went over to me. "I didn't get to give you this the last night before everything happened but I've always kept this on me just in case you come back to me. Here, it's a promise ring." Oh I thought he was gonna propose to me, he grabbed my hand and put it on. It of course wouldn’t be bad if he proposed to me, in fact I’d love it because I love him. I know that all of those stupid things yes have happened but

    Welcome to what might end up being the most awkward dinner ever. I was now in the kitchen making food so that I could leave the two to talk but I couldn't even hear what they were talking about.-----------------------------------------Luciano's POV "So how do you know my momma?" Adrianna asked."Well I met her about seven years ago, we went to school together, school is very important by the way, annoying but important. I met her there and at first I didn't have good intentions but when I got to know her I fell in love.""What's love?""Love...Love is a feeling that you get when you really care about them, you would do pretty much anything for them to be happy. There's different types, romantic love, love for family, love for friends. There's a lot.""What love do you have for my momma?""That is romantic love, you know without that you wouldn't be born.""How was I made?" Oh shit."Gabriella? Did you need help back there?
