2023-05-12 01:21:32Luciano's POV
Gabriella Rosa is going to regret ever speaking or bumping into me that one special day, Now I'm not a bad guy. Well people may say that I am but I'm truly not. I have loved some people before but that's old news let's move forward to some new things. Gabriella Rosa. I don't know why my friends picked her, she's playing hard to get with me but I do like a bit of a challenge. The problem with her is that I feel...bad for her. Must suck to be ugly and also poor. I cannot relate to her. I'm hot and rich. Everybody wants me so that's exactly why I took up this challenge. I just have to make some random girl thirsty over me and then break her heart? It's quick and easy money. These girls at this school seem to be very dumb, especially Gabriella, I'm surprised that Amara didn't warn her about me. She's my main and biggest issue. Which is why I told Gabriella to not tell her anything. She's my sister and I love her yes but love. Love, love, love. It makes you weak, vulnerable. It only ever ends in pain and tears and the only love I have in my heart is the love I have for money. It's endless and won't leave me crying. I'm so glad my plan to put them in the same dorm worked. I payed one of the employees at the school some money and they were able to pull a few strings for me after a while. This could end up benefiting or breaking my plan, if she decides to be nicer to me, then she may help me but to be honest, she'd always been the nicest out of the whole family, she's got a harsh tongue yes, to a lot of people she's very nice and she'd never be mean or ruin someone's day without a reason. She's not exactly a big fan or very supportive of how I spend my time and she usually does things that ruins my plans but I guess not this time? I decided to play on the more cautious side this time and not have Gabriella mentioning me just in case she decides to get involved she'll ruin it all for me. There's honestly a thrill that goes on when I break girls hearts. They just get so...sad and it feels good for me. Maybe it's because of that evil and conceiving gold digging Bella, I sometimes like to imagine those girls as her, It makes it so...oh how do I put it? Satisfying. It's not gonna take that long until I have Gabriella completely hooked, she may act like she's not into me and act like she doesn't find me a touch bit attractive but she does. I'll make her realise it. I know she has something in her heart for me, she just needs a bit of help to get it out of her. A notification popped up on my phone and I went to look, from Gabriella. Perfect timing amore mio.Gabriella POVI had decided to text Luciano to talk about our get together. I won't, actually I refuse to call it a date because well that's too weird. He's him, a self absorbed person and I don't think that him claiming to have changed is that believable and Gabriella how could we ever forget? He's your best friends brother. I just want to see how this goes though. I'm sure it's not gonna go far. He doesn't seem like a guy who really 'stays' anyway. I don't mind, a fling would do me some good. So far it's going good but I don't want to completely let myself fall for this idiot. The reason why I try to reject him is most likely because you can never be sure with guys, sometimes you can just never be sure if what you have with someone is real and I want to know if what me and him have is real. Or maybe it's just because ever since I was little I had an idea of how I wanted my life to go. Go to college, meet a guy when you're out of college because I've had it in my mind from my mom's stories that college boys are immature - but to be one hundred percent honest I think that when she mentioned college boys she was referring my dad(they were college lovers) and now divorced - so then once you're out of college, you will be guided to your person, your other person. And hopefully you'll end up living happily ever after. The rules now, it's a bit dumb because I'd made it up when I was a mere 14 year old girl and now I'm an 18 year old women so a lot is different now because what I experienced at 14 years old is not what I'm experiencing now. I still stand by the don't date college boys rule but more like don't date and take it all that seriously. Love is risky, it's painful and ends 99% in tears and heartbreak. I know that all. I want to however experience the joy you get from a text, having someone there I want that. I just know that to have that, I have to also stay alert and on guard. I've only had three boyfriends in my 18 years of life. All three were basic teen romance that never lasted more than a few months but it's different now, or at least it should be. I'm grown up. I look good. I feel good. I'm going to have more fun. Even if it means having to deal with the occasional heart breaks. Ok enough time in my head, I went back to my phone to see what he texted me._________________________Related chapters

Luciano(Messages)L - I can't wait for our date tonight amore mio.G - So Luciano Martini has a little nickname for me then? It's cute but I bet that's what you call all of your other girls huh? By the way, I'd much prefer to call it a 'get together.' Imagine me going on a date w you? You're not that special sweetheart.L - The lady gets what the lady wants, and I don't call anyone and have never called anyone 'amore mio' I may be a playboy but hey, I stay original. What time and day are you free?G - Can we do Saturday? I'm free all day. And how honest! You just called yourself out as a playboy, I never would've not believed you on that. L - As in tomorrow?G - Yep, is that good with you? Or do you have some other thirsty girl who's desperate to go out with you that day? Playboy's keep busy.L - Haha very funny. I am free and no girl is lined up anymore because of you Gabriella. I'm telling you, I'm taking a bit of change. I'll see you Saturday, at 6, I'll be picking you up. Don't ba

So it's actually Saturday. Saturday. I should cancel on him, yes, it's not too late, no no no. I just spent all of last night doing that routine and getting myself ready and I'll be damned if I let my bad thoughts come in and ruin this day for me. Ugh when I get nervous I always end up ruining something for myself but, that will not be happening today. I won't allow it. I heard a knock on the door and jumped up from my bed to go get it, I opened the door and saw a package on the floor, I looked to both sides of the hallway but found no one. Weird. I picked it up and took a closer look it had my name on it. I took it to my room, curiosity coursing through me. When I opened it and saw a little note inside which read, "Wear this for tonight, I hope you like it - Luciano." I guess that solves my clothing problem then. This dress looks very pretty, why would he waste his money on me though? I'd never actually ever had any guy doing that for me before so it was strange to see. This family s

We had arrived at the restaurant after a very long drive. A very long drive where the Luciano Martini couldn’t keep his eyes off of me. My plan worked. He thought he was being slick but anyone could spot those little glances he’d make or maybe the only reason I’d noticed is because I too had been giving him mini glances…He’d even opened the car door and the restaurant door as we entered inside and sat down, imagine if I actually wore my normal clothes, everyone here is super dressed up. I would look very much out of place. I kind of felt like it already, I mean I know that I’m not anything like these people. I take a look at the people around our table, they’re all wearing luxury clothes and have luxury bags and came looking like a million bucks and then there’s me. I know I came looking nice as well but it feels different for me because I never actually had to buy any of the stuff. I feel like Rory when she started hanging around all of those rich kids. Ugh Gabriella it’s fine. Focus

It didn't take us very long to arrive at the art gallery. And when we got inside I was amazed. All of the paintings looked extraordinary and it was very thoughtful that he brought me to my favourite art gallery. Art is subjective but a lot of art lovers can be quite judgmental. I don’t really want to be an artist when I’m older. I wanna do something that involves art like maybe a graphic designer. You do the art and get payed a pretty penny. I’ll always love art though. I’ve loved it ever since I was younger, my dad was big on painting. He painted whatever he saw pretty much and what he had painted was beautiful. Once he was done, he’d keep them locked away and then come back to look at them for memories. Some of the art though, with my mothers encouragement, had made it onto the walls. He was a great painter and it’s what inspired me to pick art. He still paints but I rarely see it anymore. I went back to admiring the art. Each of these art pieces have a meaning to them, the hard and

Gabriella POVI had just arrived home and that date, sorry get together was just amazing and I thankfully didn't ruin it. As I got out of Luciano's car, I said my goodbyes."Thanks for today. It was really...nice. And I think you deserve a congratulations on how impressive you made it. I agree, you’re not a super bad guy. Could use some work though.” "Of course anytime oh and also, the roses were for you please have them and keep the dress. I’m telling you, it really does look good on you amore mio.” He handed me the big bouquet of roses, the amore mio’s always made me blush…"I'm not really good with flowers though so I’m just going to say this in advance I’m sorry if they end up dying in like a day.” "Well it’s a good thing you are roommates with a flower lover, have you not seen my sisters massive collection on flowers? She adores them and has a billion facts about flowers so all you have to do is make up a darn good excuse and then you'll be able to keep it ok? And, you know what

The words of Amara kept replaying in my head. I would be stooping very low if I dated Luciano. But why? That was the question I was repeatedly asking myself. That date with Luciano was amazing. Though it was only my first date with him and my first date ever…I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. He was sweet and thought about how to make me feel special. I’d never had or experienced that with anyone. He’d given me a new perspective on what a good guy could be like and so I’m not seeing why she doesn’t want me to see him as an option.Ugh this is just great, I was actually starting to get used to him and I kinda guess that I had a bit of hope here, a little hope that I could be with him one day. It’s crazy. And dumb. And very very stupid. But gosh, if you had been with him on that date…through out the whole date I kept getting lost in his gorgeous eyes and when they looked at me it made me feel like the most special in the world. It made me feel like all of these girls that he’s been

Luciano POV After our first date, I’d tried avoiding Gabriella but she kept texting me and I couldn’t ignore her. For the plan. I can’t be around her though. That has been my main ambition because more than I would like to admit, Gabriella Rosa has been on my mind, every. fucking. second. of. the. day. I had purposefully walked the other way when I’d seen her around the school halls because I could not stand to be in the same space as her. Because I’d felt like I’d want to kiss her. On the lips this time and that was all I was thinking about. I met her because she wanted to, for the plan I followed through. But gosh it felt like torture. I still think about that one little kiss she gave me, how can they ever leave my mind? My friends had been texting me questions about how everything’s going and all I wanted to do was to tell them to shut up. I’m starting to really realise how much they need to change. The reason why we were actually friends was because we all thought the same things

I had fallen asleep on the couch and had just now woken up, it's currently 8 am, too early to be waking up but thank goodness because I hadn't set an alarm the night before and I have a lecture at 10 so better get ready then. I stood and went up to my room but it was completely trashed, my stuff was thrown around everywhere what the fuck happened here. The first thing that came to mind however was to find the painting Luciano had gotten me, I didn't care about the art supplies surrounding the floor. If that painting, my first ever one and a gift at that was broken? I was gonna go crazy. I began searching left and right and to no avail it wasn't there. My heart beat quickened and I felt tears of frustration and annoyance creeping up in my eyes. It is far too early to be crying but that painting...I went to wake up Amara only to find her already up, she was on her phone smiling widely. She looked guilty, but why would she do this to me? What could I have done to her?"What the actual hec

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.
My Italian Billionaire Epilogue 2
So, dear reader, I bet you must be wondering what happened after I married my Luciano. Well good news, we didn't end up divorced like my parents and I didn't leave him like his mother did. 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
My Italian Billionaire 47
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.
My Italian Billionaire 46
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
My Italian Billionaire 45
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? I should go check on your mom real quick..." I got up and w
