NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 6
She swallowed hard, then took a long sip of her scotch, shivering as the burn chased down her throat, then replaced her glass into its holder with a dull thud.“There! Are you happy now?”“‘Sì, grazie…’ (Yes, thank you)”“Signor Gritti, I think I have the right to know where are you taking me… Because up until this point, this is kidnapping and…”“This isn’t a kidnapping, Norah,” Leone countered dryly. “We’re going to Bellagio, on Lake Como. We’ll be staying at Yari’s villa. It’s in his wife’s name and away from the paparazzi’s radar. So, we’ll be okay there.”“Lake Como? No, no, I can’t go there. I want to go home. My passport is in my apartment, my suitcase, all my things…” she insisted, reaching to open her seatbelt. “I want to go to my apartment and prepare everything for my flight back to the States. I can’t stay here a second more.”“Oh, so you want to go back to the States, huh? The press there is more relentless than ours, Norah. Even if you managed to drop out of

“And there you have it… I’m a freaking star… Everybody over the Atlantic knows now about this whole mess,” Norah muttered squeezing the phone, cringing again. It was afternoon here. Freddie would be starting his day in New York, and the fact that he’d learned so quickly of the photos told her exactly how broadly these things were being distributed. Maybe reporters had tracked down the family connection and were harassing him and David? ‘Damn you, Phillip Weldon!’ His headline name was turning her into a punch line. She set her phone on the table, unable to think of anything to say except ‘I’m sorry’, and that was far from being enough.“I&rs

Leone let her into the stunning villa, then watched her while she was looking around totally stunned by the beauty of the place. He took off the phone and made a call allowing her to listen as he greeted someone with an extremely warm ‘Ciao, tesoro! Come stai?’ (Hi, honey! How are you?). Who was the woman he was talking to on the phone? Who was this ‘honey’ he had been so eager to call the moment they arrived here? The sound of his voice while talking to her, his entire demeanor… everything was so annoying to her. Norah took it like a punch in her gut. So, he already had a woman… Of course, he had one. A man like Leone Gritti has several women. Models, actresses, dancers… Not boring women like her.“What the hell am I doing here, with him?” Then Norah sighed, telling herself how crazy she was to accept his proposal. How could Leone call her his ‘lover’ if he already has one? More than one… And even if he has just one, that wo

“Being nice has nothing to do with it, Norah. The photos have nothing to do with what I just said. I stated the truth. You are an extremely beautiful woman,” Leone went on, trying not to pay attention to her sarcasm. “I’m sure a lot of men told you that.”“What is this? Is it another sarcastic line in the ‘How to kick Norah while she’s still bruised and broken’ chapter?” Norah asked, then her mouth pouted in consternation. Leone gazed at her lips. They trembled for a moment before she stopped them. Was she really that innocent? Was she really that unaware of how gorgeous she was? It struck Leone that she didn’t know he was extremely attracted to her. He would have laughed if he hadn’t been so stunned. Phillip Weldon himself chose her for that trait… He didn’t need an intelligent woman… “Norah…” he said and took a half step towards her. But he stopped when saw her frightened and a bit confused.“Could you stop playing this flirting ga

“Wow! Kudos for her brazenness! Her man was there and yet, she called you ‘darling’ and kissed you on the mouth… in front of him… in front of all these people,” Norah said a moment later, when they were alone. “She is like that and everyone here knows it. She also called me ‘Leo’… Like I said earlier, all my friends and family call me that. As my lover, you should, too.” “I see… Well, since my career was cut down, and I don’t see another future for myself, I was wondering… Should I call her agent? What do you think, ‘sir’? Should I make lemonade out of it, like she’d suggested?” Norah shot back, taking a deeper sip of her champagne than was probably wise, but the impulse to get legless drunk was very strong. “Norah, take it slow…” he whispered. “Why should I?” she challenged Leone. “This is a party and it is serving some good champagne. I’ve had a very hard, very disappointing day and I find that disappointment washes down easier with Dom Pérignon.” She took another l

Leone went through his emails and texts for the last hour or so, working… Or trying to. He read the same email ten times in a row and still had no fucking idea what was it about. So, he gave up. His mind was somewhere else… His eyes were gazing at Norah who was sound asleep. ‘Leo… Please, hold me… I’m so exhausted… and alone.’ Finally, Norah said his name… And the way she said it… So sweetly, almost like a whisper. She looked so fragile, so innocent… ‘Oh, Leo…’ He sat in the armchair of the hotel room, his legs stretched out on a chair, wearing nothing but his pants, thinking of what was said and done before she fell asleep. They were on the yacht, away from everybody, when a horrific storm started. After their mind-blowing kiss, Leone allowed her to cry and release some of the tension she had been accumulating during that day. While holding and soothing Norah, the rain started pouring down on them quite violently

The moment she closed the bathroom door, Norah took a sigh of relief. Her uneasiness had nothing to do with Freddie’s text. It had everything to do with Leone, with what happened on the yacht, with the way she felt while sleeping next to him in the same bed. She looked at her own reflection in the mirror and saw there another woman… someone she couldn’t recognize. In less than twenty-four hours, she changed so much. Those photos changed her life in so many ways, and the strangest thing was getting Leone’s attention. And not only that. Norah turned on the water, then took off the few things she had on and entered the shower cabin. Funny how something as simple as a shower could become the most wonderful thing. Washing her hair, smoothing a soapy facecloth over her body... It was almost like a mystical experience in a time of crisis. She took her time, thinking of nothing as water rained down on her. Until… Until she started recallin

“I reviewed your file and some other details,” Leone told her as they left the hotel room. Norah looked over her shoulder at him, dismayed, but not fearful.“Other details like what?” Her financial situation, for example. Her debt level was low, but Norah had a little, and hadn’t made any significant payments or purchases recently. There had been nothing to red flag her as possessing or spending a sum that might have been embezzled. Instead, he’d found more evidence that she was exactly as she portrayed herself.“In a short period of time, you’ve reached an astounding level of education and your work with our office in New York was quite remarkable,” Leone acknowledged once they were in the privacy of the elevator. “Still, for the position here in Milan, there were two more experienced candidates on the list before you. Sensi signed off on your transfer despite this important detail. So, this supports your theory.”“Which theory?” she asked in a

NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS EPILOGUE
“Yes, Freddie, David will come to see me this weekend. And I know for sure he won’t be coming alone,” Norah replied to her stepbrother. “Since he came to live here, in Milan, he kinda... changed… And the Italian ladies adore him.” A little girl with incredible blue eyes and long dark hair was trying to get the cellphone from her hand.“Cat! Cat!” she exclaimed pointing at it.“No, sweetie, it’s Uncle Freddie,” Norah said, trying to keep her calm. “Cat is coming later with Marco, Arturo, Aunt Gabby, and Uncle Yari.”“‘So, I’ll be seeing you and Dad next week?’” she heard Freddie’s voice at the other end.“Absolutely! Leo will send you all the info for the jet. And tell Pamela, your sweet fiancée, that I cannot wait to meet her in person.”“Cat!” the little girl repeated.“Listen, Freddie, I’m sorry but I have to go. Your niece is still half dressed and my guests will be here in twenty minutes.”“‘Go, sweetie! I’ll talk to you later, okay? Please, take care. Remember you’re ca

“I don’t understand why you think I’m not being honest… What part of my story seemed a lie to you?” Leone asked with a chilling voice and his shoulders went back. Norah shook her head slightly.“I’m not questioning the story of your life. Not one bit.” She watched him closely and a thousand images of their common past come over her. Parts of past conversations, simple words and gestures that she saw but at that time, couldn’t quite grasp… During the days they spent together, he hid his true self behind this thick wall, showing her just small bits of the real Leone Gritti. This is why she couldn’t see his true thoughts, feelings, emotions. But things were so much clearer now when the dark clouds were gone. She usually was the queen of wishful thinking, but this wasn’t wishful thinking at all… was it?“I wanted you to know the real reason behind my decision. Norah, I don’t want you to get hurt even more because of who I am.”“Hmm… So, let me get this straig
NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS EMMA'S NOTE
Hey, Y'all!!!! Later today, I will publish the last chapter and the epilogue of "NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS". I am a bit emotional about this story that wasn't that easy to write (the sex scenes were quite tricky). But now, I'm finally here, ready and willing to give our couple everything they've asked for during all these chapters and release them into the world. Thank you for everything you gave to this story, for being there for me, every step of this adventure. Thank you for your support and loyalty. You are the best! But, most of all, thank you for your patience and understanding, and for not putting too much pressure on me. Also, I would like to let you know that I am preparing something new for you (of course), so do not stay away too long from my Goodnovel page. Keep an eye on it. One more thing: I've decided to go back on ALL my old stories and start an extremely thorough editing process. It is not going to be a fast process (but a very painful and frustrating one
NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 33
Leone punched in the override code to get him to the floor he wanted. All the way up, he looked at her, admiring her from every angle possible. She was breathtaking. Norah was the only woman he knew who could make a work suit look so incredibly sexy. Were those the clothes he bought for her in Milan? He really hoped so… Knowing that she didn’t throw away everything reminding her of him made Leone feel happy somehow… Norah was still allowing him a small place in her life.“Are you okay?” Leone asked her in a sweet tone.“The way up is long but I’m good…” she replied and flicked her hair behind her shoulder. That sea of pure dark silk played with his senses… all of them. Her perfume was so unique, so sensual. Leone remembered sensing it on his pillowcase for days. He even stopped his housekeeper from taking it away and washing it. Leone needed her fragrance to be able to breathe. To be able to live after that day.“Would you like me t
NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 32
Three months since Leone. Three months since she saw him for the last time in that damn conference room, in Milan. Three months of dragging her feet around, doing the same things day after day, living the lamest life possible. Even the paparazzi cut her some slack, and most of them moved on to the next hot subject: some young popstar’s extremely messy divorce. So, at this point, Norah was doing okay. Or she thought she was until she gave into Freddie’s suggestion to go out with Hank, one of his buddies from college, now some big shot on Wall Street. At first, she said no. Norah thought three months was still too early to go out with another man. But when she took a good look at her life, and saw how boring it was, Norah asked Freddie to give her number to his friend. It was time to get back on the horse and start creating a new Norah, find new interests, and try new things. She also told herself this date would be a test, to

NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 31
While the airplane taking them to New York, was smoothly crossing the ocean, Norah kept looking at the white clouds. She now knew that Leone was really through with her. She had waited for him at the airport, but he didn’t come for her. She kept hoping until the plane took off and still no sign of him. Strangely, Freddie was standing next to her, allowing her to morn in silence, looking genuinely worried about her. From time to time, she would give him a quick glance, trying to understand the reason why a man who never give a damn about her, would come to Italy to help her. Freddie might have blown up her relationship with Leone, but he was really sorry. He was treating her like she was made of glass, barely touching her, moving her with his gentle voice. He told her that he shouldn’t have waited for her to ask for help, but that he knew how important her independence was to her. He had wanted to respect her choices, but he couldn’t watch her
NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 30
“Finally!” The man who entered the room with her lawyer was wearing a tailored suit and was shaved. That voice… She knew that voice!“Hello!” he said again. “Oh, my God!” she exclaimed. “I almost didn’t recognize you without your… stubble… What are you doing here?” Norah was perplexed seeing Freddie in the same room, but she was also glad. Even if he was just her stepbrother. “Norah!” She almost stepped forward to hug him, but stopped, a grim sensation coming over her. This would’ve been his only reason to come to Italy so unexpectedly. “Is David okay?”“Dad is fine. He’s worried sick about you,” Freddie said, sending a hostile glance around the conference room. “Why haven’t you called him?”“I... didn’t know what to say. You told him I was okay, didn’t you?”“Are you? Really? What is this?” Freddie waved at the conference table where red folders had been set in front of a handful of chairs.“I told you not to sign a single thing
NORAH & HER UNTAMEABLE BOSS CHAPTER 29
“Ciao, ragazzi! (Hi, guys)” Yari exclaimed as he opened the door to his home to them a few nights later. They were there on Gabrielle’s invitation. With Arturo being born and the Weldon affair, the four of them had very few interactions. So, Gabrielle insisted, and… here they were.“Good job on the lawyer, Norah,” Yari added dryly.“Erin Anthony is really nice, isn’t she?” Norah asked him. But she barely paid attention to the conversation, totally astonished by the house she just entered. While driving there, Leone had told her that the house had been in the family for generations.“Nice?” Yari repeated under his breath, then turned to Leone. “Did you have anything to do with her choice?”“No way… Why? Are we about to lose these?” Leone asked plucking at his shirt.“My stepbrother found her for me,” Norah hurried to say. “I’m sorry… I didn’t know who else to ask. Why? Is she awful?”“Well… Depends which side of the table you’re on,” Yari said smoothly. “I have to s
