Thank you for reading Please leave a gem for this dysfunctional couple lol. Xoxo
Adrian I open my eyes and check the clock which shows it's 6 o'clock. , I know it is time to update my sick cousin about the situation. He is not just my right hand but also the only person I can rely on right now. I can't even trust my own mother at the moment and if things don't go in her favour, we will be preparing another fucking funeral. I have been thinking about what to do to her since I last saw her. She has been pleading to speak to me and with the way things are going I just might need to confirm certain things from her. She may love money more than anything but no one doesn't fear death. Even for her, that will be enough to make her talk. Sighing, I dial Luca's number, and he answers on the first ring. His voice tinges with a hint of urgency. "A, what's happening?" I hate to call him in times like this. Especially when he is doing something very dangerous. "Hi Luca? How are you progressing with the buying off of the shares there? Do you need more backup?" "You k
Ella My eyes flutter open as I turn, I find Adrian's side empty and I can't help but wonder where he has gone. I won't dwell too much on it because this is how it has been for the past month. Although it troubles me, I have learned to accept that there are parts of his world he will never share. I doubt he might share anything actually. Being bought to be a Pet doesn’t really come with many privileges such as sharing secrets. I haven't been able to really talk to him about what really happened when Sofia kidnapped me, I know she was killed but I have been avoiding thinking about it for too long. Eventually, I will have to face it. Just not today. Who am I becoming that killing is starting to seem normal for me? What has this man done to me? These days I don't even think about being free because no matter how hard I try to hate him he feels like home. I lazily get up from the bed with thoughts heavy on my mind. My grandmother's words still echo in my mind, leaving me anxious
Adrian My meeting with Viktor was full of fucked up shit but we have to prepare regardless. So much information has been shared and if other Mafioso families get hold of it, I’ll be at a disadvantage. As I sit in the board meeting listening to Mr. Harry explain our stocks and how we can dominate further. My phone rings. It's a restricted number, so I know it’s my pet calling. I ignore the call but she keeps calling. ‘’Mr. Morreti Sir, Is there anything you’d like to ask?’’ Old Harry asks. ‘’No, that was a good analysis Mr. Harry.’’ I respond as my fingers play with the phone buttons. ‘’"What is it?" I answer with irritation in my voice. I’m not actually irritated. I’m actually happy that she has called me. But being a little too glad makes me worry. All eyes are now staring at me. I lift my head up from my laptop and they all move their stares away in fear. "I can't manage to do this anymore." She cries out. "Do what? I'm in a meeting Ella. Can you speak clearly." I urge h
Ella I couldn't believe my eyes, Lila was allowed to come here? At this point whatever Adrian's intention was, it didn't matter to me. The fact that he did this for me warms my heart and I can't help but wonder if his cold heart may have some life after all. Stop overthinking it, maybe he just wants to keep an eye on his enemies. The little voice whispers and I shut it down. "The last I saw you, those men had come after you. I have been so worried about you. I thought something terrible happened. Oh my God Ella!" she cries and I pull her into a hug. She is right, I have been selfish for not letting her know I was okay. "I'm so sorry Lila. I … Honestly I have no excuse. I'm really sorry." I hug her again. "Have you at least spoken to Toddy?" she asks in between sniffs. "Not yet but I will soon okay?" I lie knowing very well that if I say yes she will wonder why I called Toddy and not her. How else can you tell someone that you were bought from an auction to be a slave but
Adrian As this pretty woman lays on my chest for a few more minutes before I return to work, I can't help but wonder about how I'm going to keep her safe from everything that is going on and it seems I need to speak to my consigliere about this. "Are you leaving?" Ella looks up at me with doll eyes. "Yes, baby. I need to work on a few things. Plus you need to speak to your friend." I respond as I walk to the shower. Shortly, I returned and I was putting on my shirt when she spoke up. "Why do you call me baby? When you promised that I was only here for your pleasure.?" That's a question I have no answer to. So I chose to sound like a dick over weakness. "I just do. Be careful with what you talk about with Lila. One wrong word and I'll have to put a bullet in her head." I warn as I head out. As Toren is driving, I pull out my phone to call Luca who picks up on the first ring. "Yes, boss. Missing me already?" he laughs and I shake my head as I blow out a smoke. "Fuck you. No
Adrian I committed my life to avenging my father's death and to do that, I had to become the most ruthless and most powerful among the mafioso families. Everything changed when I decided to take a pet home. She was meant to pleasure me so I could quench my dark desires but she ended up getting in my skin and I can't fucking shake her off. She betrayed me and instead of putting a bullet in her skull, I fucking took her to my room and threw all the rules out the window. Hearing my uncle suggest that marrying her is the only solution drives me crazy. But I'd rather keep her by my side than let another man wife her. Even if it means she will hate me for the rest of her life. "Fine. It will be done." I respond to Uncle John who nods in understanding. "We'll then, I'll head out now to get things sorted and prepared. Don't be too hard on your mother. She did it all for you." he says and I smile. "Careful, we Morreti men never defend a woman unless our dick has been inside her. I mi
Ella I watch with a confused look as Adrian walks out the door. He ignored my question but decided to threaten me instead.Very typical of him.Deep down in my heart, I was hoping he would really answer my question but I guess it's a dream too far-fetched.Ignoring the pain shooting through my center from the way he pounded me, I stand and grab a towel to take a hot shower before heading back to Lila. The hot water hits my skin and soothes my muscles, making me want to stay here forever. Hidden from the battles and responsibilities that await me. But a girl can only dream.I walk back to the room and pick a change of clothes. As I zip up my dress, my thoughts drift to what a mess I have been. Sleeping with the enemy when I should be hating this man with my life. He plans on killing my grandparents and I should be fighting him, negotiating, changing his mind, or doing anything that will help me save them. He has slowly crept into my skin and won’t leave until he takes my soul too.The
‘’You’re lying!’’ I scream as I drop to the ground. The world seems to spin as everything comes crashing down making hot tears fall on my face. ‘’You thought he would give you the world because he fucks you? The only thing he will do is take it all from you because my son is broken.’’ She whispers in an angered tone. ‘’I don’t believe you,’’ I respond as I stand back on my feet again. ‘’Your mouth says one thing and your eyes say another!’’ she says as she turns to go. ‘’Call him right now and ask where he is,’’ she adds as she leaves and shuts the door leaving me in shock. With a trembling hand, I pull out my phone from my back pocket and dial Adrian’s number. It goes unanswered. Just when my heart sinks, the door bursts open and there he stands. Covered in blood! ‘’Did she hurt you?’’ He rushes to my side and checks me while I stare at him unable to move or scream. My heart longs for answers but seeing him covered in blood like this clenches it painfully as if someone is con
