NicolasI came to a halt and lowered the window of my car. When the guards noticed me, they instantly unlocked the gates. I am picking up Anaya for our date. I am confident she will accept the marriage proposal by the end of this date. It is very easy to impress a girl. Just dangle your money and fame in front of them, along with a dash of your sex appeal, and they will fall at your feet.I parked my Bentley Continental GT in Costa’s driveway and tugged the bouquet in my armpit. Sally answered the door when I rang the doorbell. He wore his usual scowl, and I greeted him with the same.“Where is Anaya?” I asked.“I’ll get her; Henry, stay here,” Sally said as he proceeded towards the stairs.Henry guided me into the house, and I surveyed the vintage room filled with expensive paintings and artifacts. The clicking of heels took my attention away from a stunning picture. Anaya was facing the door, and all I could see of her was her back. The view of her ass made me smirk.I approached her
AnayaI was still in awe of the plane’s elegant interior when we boarded it again. Beige and brown colors illuminated the plane. This made the darker oak woodwork of the tables and storage furniture stand out. The furniture appeared to be hand-crafted with leather, crystal, marquetry, and fine woods.It was equipped with a TV, Wi-Fi, online communication facilities, and even two bedrooms, bathrooms, and a kitchen in the back. It also featured a meeting area, according to Nicolas. This plane had more luxury than my house in England.I quietly took the window seat and strapped myself up. My dread of flying did not help my brain, which was already overloaded. This date was something out of a movie or a dream for some females, but not for me. This date only highlighted how different our worlds are.The moment I saw him in the lobby, I swooned. He looked every bit Adonis in his black suit with a purple casual undershirt. He wore black loafers and his hair looked perfectly styled.Nicolas wa
Nick After dropping Anaya off, I drove to my mansion. My mind was racing from what she had just told me. Her words struck a chord with me. She barely knew who I was. We didn’t spend much time together, but she saw right through me. I’m still comprehending her words. I wanted to ask her what she meant when she said I wasn’t showing her my real self on the plane. But I could not find the words to do the same. I could see my abrupt behavior change confused her throughout the car ride. I eventually asked her, and her answer made my eyes widen. When all the people in the world saw me as I showed my mask, how could a girl who had known me for only a few days understand my disguise? She was the first person in the world to expose me. I may not have shown her, but when she asked to meet the real me, I was delighted, but now that I think about it, I’m terrified. No one knew the true me, not even my best friend. Everyone perceived me as the rich, snobby, ruthless man whore of a Mafia boss.
Anaya The only thing that came to me was, “Wow,” I whispered. The spectacle in front of me showed me the definition of the word ethereal. I could see the enormous expanse of several mountains from where we were standing on a cliff. At the summit, the sky-high mountains were shrouded in fog. Clouds swirl over the peaks, blending with the fog. The setting sun appears to roll in a golden scarlet glow before sinking beyond the dark horizon. As the red fireball blasted countless flaming sparks, the forest and mountains continued to sparkle with light orange and yellow lines. The entire slope is covered with green. The mist is like silk wrapped around its waist, and the sun shines through each piece. Raindrops on the foliage have transformed into vibrant pearls. Waterfalls cascaded down the hills and joined the river pouring down the hill’s feet. The only sound in the magnificent setting was the rushing of the fall. As waters wind toward the river, they add to natural twists and spray i
Nicolas I used to think it was an exaggeration when people said that one smile from someone who matters can suck all the tension from your body. However, as she smiled, my shoulders relaxed. When I told her she was the only person who knew about this place besides me, her smile made me proud of myself. “I am honored,” she stated. I don’t know what to say in response to gratitude, so I nod and head to the kitchen, where I left my phone. I smiled when I heard the pitter-patter of her footsteps behind me. “What are you up to?” she inquired. “I need to notify Ben and your father before they deploy a search team to find us,” I replied. I recall Viler threatening to hang me upside down on a tree if anything happened to his precious little daughter. Additionally, he wasn’t thrilled with the prospect of me being alone in a remote cabin with her. I assured him she’d be my wife soon and that I’d do all in my power to keep her safe. So we are bound to be alone together. I’m still smirking a
Anaya I rearranged the couch for my comfort while Nicolas walked down to the bedroom. I could see outside through the window. The rain was pouring down, causing a rumbling in the valley. The eerie silence surrounding me made me queasy. I was not new to silence, but this was something else. Right now, I’m surrounded by darkness and silence. I’m not scared of darkness, but this is horrible. There was no light at all. We were in a cottage located in a dark, dense forest valley. I can’t even drive if I wanted to. Nicolas was the only one who could help me. Now I regret not taking him up on his offer to sleep on the bed. If I had taken the bed, I could have at least locked the bedroom door. I’m not sure what held me back, since I know Nicolas would never touch me if I didn’t want him to. Although I have accepted that I have a massive crush on him, I am not sure what keeps me from accepting him into my life. I sighed and wrapped the blanket tightly around myself. It is freezing here, but
Nicolas I frown, seeing Anaya’s smile drop while clutching her phone tight. “Is everything all right, kitten?” I asked. Her head snapped, “Y-yeah it is. I will see you soon, Nicolas.” “Anaya, I hate liars,” I said, struggling to contain my rage. She is lying. “You’ll be my wife, and you should know that I don’t put up with liars. Am I understood?” “It’s nothing really,” she stiffened, “but today is my adopted mother’s birthday.” A small sigh escaped my lips, and Anaya’s sorrowful gaze met mine. Despite not being sure what I could do in the situation, I squeezed her hand and said, “I am here for you.” “Anything more?” I asked. She pursed her lips. “No,” she replied. I had to put in more effort to win her trust, given that I knew she wasn’t being truthful. Also, I will respect her space as she has respected mine. If something big was amiss, she would tell me, I am sure. “See you soon,” I said, smiling. She wrenched the car door open and proceeded to her house. I waited till she
Anaya A week has passed since Nicolas and I visited his cabin. After that, he took a flight to Spain and hasn’t been back since. He texted to let me know he was leaving Italy for a week and that I should exercise caution till he gets back. I smiled as soon as I finished reading his text since it was such a wonderful gesture. I must confess that I am missing his presence. I miss his irritating smirks, his relentless mocking, and his attractive face. His absence reminded me of how much he had influenced my life. During the previous week, he sent me a message once or twice, but it was insufficient. However, I know he is a very busy man. Aside from that, I don’t want to hear any gory details about his organization. I sighed as I strolled through my father’s library, running my hands over the hardback old volumes. I’ve never seen a library as large as the one he owned. I adore reading and the beauty of literature, so spending time in the library provides me with some stability. Books hav

6 years later... Nicolas I brushed my fingertips over the name ‘Emma Ricci’ on the tombstone. The words ‘an amazing mother and human’ were written in capital letters below it. My mother. Even after all these years, I still miss her with all my heart. I whispered, “Maa, I miss you,” and laid the flowers Anaya had picked this morning from the garden on the grave. I am sure that my mother is resting with angels. I looked to my right and saw three more headstones. While searching for Scar, I learned more about my other half-siblings that he had killed. I never managed to locate their remains, but I was able to establish some momentum in their memory. I may never meet them, but I pray they find peace in the hereafter. I smiled and walked back to the house. The wonderful aroma of coffee drew me to the kitchen, where my beautiful wife was brewing coffee. I smiled and hugged her from behind. “Hi, kitten,” I whispered in her ear and kissed her neck. My hands stroked her stomach. She shutt
Anaya I was floating in complete darkness. My body felt as though it was fastened to a harness. I tried to get down, but I could not. I held my hand out to touch something, but it was just a whole lot of nothing. I was about to give up when I overheard a toddler babbling in the distance. I turned to glance around when I saw a kid crawling away from me. He moved away on all fours while wriggling his adorable bum, so I was unable to see his face. It felt like the child was calling out to me as the he kept babble-babbling in his child’s language. I pushed myself to follow the child. And soon I was swimming towards him. “Hold on, little one. Where is your mama?” I questioned, but the child picked up his pace. I huffed, “Stop running, baby. We need to get you back to your mama. She might be worried!” The infant babbled again, and soon I heard him laugh. I could not help but smile at the sweet laughter of a child. I must admit that seeing him laugh made me happy. As though my maternal
Nicolas “Noooo....” As soon as I noticed Anaya tumbling to the ground, I yelled. Everything was moving in slow motion for me. She had pushed me aside, taking a bullet that was meant for me. I turned to face the culprit. The blood that was pouring out of his mouth did not hide the smirk plastered on his face. He was holding a gun and pointing at her. I yelled in anger and snatched the gun out of his hand and he looked me in the eye. “You are no human. See you in hell, Scar,” I said and shot him in the middle of his forehead. His blood splattered on the floor as the bullet tore through his head. I shot him repeatedly until I felt someone grab my collar. I spun around to see a distraught Cia pleading with me to look at Anaya. I turned around and spotted Cia, Ben, and Adrian with several of my men. I’m not even sure when they walked into the room. I looked at my wife, who was bleeding on the floor and struggling to keep her eyes open, as I recovered from my vengeful daze. Her eyes were
Nicolas I grumbled and drew Anaya closer to me. Even though I was awake, I didn’t want to leave the warmth of my wife’s body. She exhaled and snuggled deeper into my chest. I opened my eyes and her naked body pressed against mine stirred my friend down south. I wanted to wake her up and have my way with her again. She must, however, be worn out from the previous night. We had been at it like rabbits. We didn’t get to sleep until the early hours of the morning, fucking until we were out of energy. Nonetheless, my body yearned for her. I don’t think I will ever be tired or fulfilled by the number of times I have her. She is my drug, and I am addicted. She had been apprehensive ever since she first met OBGYN Dr. Nile three months ago. Though he has assured her at all appointments that everything is fine, she is still doubting herself. The grief in her eyes when she sees a negative pregnancy test crushes my heart. I haven’t let her take another test for three weeks now and we are wingin
Anaya Lee’s battered body lay on the ground. His mangled body was covered in blood from head to toe. Due to the loss of blood, his skin turned pale. His clothes were ripped, and his eyes were hollow. He didn't look like the man I'd seen a few months earlier, with the Armani suit, exquisite jewelry, wide smile, and expensive watches. However, he deserves it after what he had done. He is at the topmost level of the dungeon and is used as a punching bag by all of us. Some of Marcus’s men decided to take the easy way out and kill themselves with cyanide pills while those who had been left were here in the dungeons. The evil ones have been vented, and all have been tortured. The majority of his men were killed. We didn’t have any other options. A few, such as the doctor and his brother who assisted Nicolas, are helped by him to live an honest life. “What? I unloaded my frustration on him since you wouldn't allow me to go on my trips.” Cia said nonchalantly. Nicolas sighed and rubbed his
Nicolas As I sat in my chair, I noticed that all of my commanders were listing intendly. The previous two months had been extremely hectic. I’ve begun to focus again on my work since the plasters have been removed and my body has fully recovered. We have managed to bounce back higher due to my and Anaya’s efforts. Yes, I have officially asked her to be the boss of the gang. She has declined for the time being. She wants to learn how to operate the business correctly, and she has been a tremendous student. I find it fascinating how she comes up with innovative solutions. I turned to gaze to my right where my new commander, Anaya Ricci, was presenting the information she had for our proposed warehouse to everyone. She had taken care of the repairs and security updates to the warehouse with the help of Adrain. “Nicolas, your lost in your thoughts,” she said quietly as she ended her presentation and the room applauded. I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at her. “I’m sorry. What w
Anaya I felt a tingle on the underside of my thigh. I squirmed when I felt a delicate caress near my hip. Is this a dream? Since Nicolas started teasing me with his touches and dirty words way too frequently last week, I have been exceedingly jittery and aroused. I heard Nicolas say, “I know you’re awake, kitten. Open your eyes.” when I felt hot breath near my ear. Of course, it’s him that gets me wet first thing in the morning! I thought of teasing him, returning the favor, but I jerked awake when I felt a slap on my pussy. “What the...” I lagged. I saw my handsome husband lying on top of me, freshly showered, wearing a red t-shirt and blue jeans. He smirked, “Good morning, wife. It’s always lovely to see your beautiful eyes and naked body in the morning.” I flushed as I realized I was under him, absolutely naked. He purposely made me play strip poker last night, knowing well I am terrible at cards and that’s how I ended up naked while he was fully clothed. Now that Nicolas’s ba
Nicolas I saw my beautiful wife curled up beside me. Two weeks have passed since I was released from the hospital. I was strictly ordered to stay in bed, and some of my minor bandages had been taken off. I pushed my body to move even though it was still difficult. I'm not going to be chained to a bed. I chuckled, as I remembered how mad Anaya and Cia got when I tried to stand up and fell down on the ground. Since Marcus managed to escape the helicopter when it crashed into the water, everyone has been under pressure. He was actually concealing a knife in his boot, which he used to cut through his binds discreetly. While Noah was holding him, he stabbed the knife into Noah's thigh. We were relieved Noah was safe, since we didn't need a battle with the American Mafia right now. The five men aboard the helicopter that was transporting Marcus got into a fight with him. Someone inadvertently discharged gun, shooting the pilot and causing the plane to crash. We lost Marcos, Anaya's bodygu
