Lorenzo arches an eyebrow curiously at me as he enters my room, his footsteps slow – almost wary.

“You look awfully pale,” He comments, closing the door behind him.

I tear my eyes away from his face, suddenly interested in the design of my room all over again. I don’t know how I should look at him or who to look at him as.

Lorenzo doesn’t look like a fucking murderer, there’s no way he could’ve slaughtered people.

The thought alone makes bile rise in my throat.

I’ve seen murderers before, I’ve lived with one, and I know how unregretful they are. How getting blood under their nails doesn’t faze them. Lorenzo doesn’t look like that. Lorenzo doesn’t look like a cold-blooded murderer.

I trust him, he isn’t a murderer.

“Willow…” Lorenzo calls cautiously.

“I think I’m going to throw up,” I mutter feeling everything surge up my throat as I race for the bathroom. I make it to the toilet seat in time and pour out revolting piles of vomit.

I flush the toilet. I go to the sink, rinse my mouth, b

    ☁︎Lorenzo☁︎Four hours earlier.“Wow, you’re so heartless,” Theodore says with a dejected sigh as he slumps into the chair in my office. “How could you talk to your sister like that?” He whines after I hang up on Amelia.“Shut up,” I respond tiredly and take a seat on the other side of the room, facing him.“She’s probably choking on her tears right now, I know I’ve been wanting her to get back to work but after hearing you chew and spit her out like that, I kinda feel bad for her,” Theodore confesses. “Can’t we just let her live a normal life? I mean, this kind of life is hard for a woman anyway.” He mumbles the last part, his eyes skimming my face warily.I sigh, rubbing my temple in frustration.“Theo,” I call, my voice quiet.He answers in surprise, I don’t know if it was because I called his name short or because of how solemn I sounded.“Non possiamo sfuggire al nostro destino, this is something we were born with and it is something we grew to accept. We kill and take, people tr

    “Is this about me, Willow?” Lorenzo asks.Suddenly, I hesitated to answer, mouth dry like cotton and tongue heavy like a wet carpet. Were my words too transparent or was he just self-conscious that I was trying to talk about him?“Is there something you want to talk to me about?” He asks again, his voice as patient and calm as ever, almost making me guilty of thinking of him as a murderer.But I can’t get it out of my head, I mean the contents of that letter. I can’t get the written words that Rose had sent inside that letter out of my head and I’m starting to have second thoughts about the man I’ve come to love.“Enzo,” I start, my tongue darting out to wet my lips nervously as I fiddle with my fingers.He hummed in response, forcing me to carry on with my words.“Do you know someone named Rose?”I felt his body stiffen slightly at my question, it made my racing heart pound faster. I clench my sweaty fists, trying to swallow the lump forming in my throat.Blinking rapidly to avoid te

    “It’s Halloween!” Isabella squeals her announcement as she emerges from the door. The pigtails I put her hair in this morning before school were nowhere to be found, only a nest of very disturbed hair.“Soon,” Lucas adds bluntly from beside me, lazily sprawled on the sofa. I can tell from the little smile he’s hiding that he’s just trying to spite her.Isabella scoffs.“Less meddling Luke, I don’t wanna know.” She retorts, tiny hands on either side of her waist.Lucas starts to say something, but Isabella ignores him and runs towards me. I stand up from the couch before she arrives, allow her to hug me hard, and make it look like the impact made me fall back on the couch.“It’s Halloween soon Wooly.” She tells me again.“Well, someone’s excited,” I said with a teasing smile, wrapping my arms around her waist and holding her up as I stood up, laughing slightly at how energetic her nodding was.“Just child behavior,” Lucas comments making his sister frown.“Child bee-hayvor?” Isabella f

    “What are you going to do now Caro? I never thought she would have to find out like this, it just makes it worse.” Julia says worriedly.(Dear.)I sigh, rubbing my hands over my tired eyes, feeling more dejected than I’ve ever been in my whole life. Even though she deserved to be angry, she didn’t have to say something like that about my father. My father never hit me and my siblings.

My father whom I hate for taking thousands of lives, the same father I love for being mine.To others, he is the monster he is. To us, he is everything.

    Hot, mingled breaths. Heavy breathing. The sounds of our skins clapping in the quiet room. Everything moving in my head feels like a blur of moments filled with euphoria.I lay on my stomach grasping the sheets like a lifeline with my back arched and sanity driven to the edge as Lorenzo once again entered me painstakingly slow, hitting the back of my womb with his member, making me moan, my whole body shaking from pleasure as he hit the right spot.One of his hands clasps my breast from behind while the other holds one of mine and grasps it tight. Then he pulls out completely and enters again, filling me up.“Fuck.” The word comes out with a breathy moan making him pinch my nipple hard.He kisses the crook of my neck from behind and the side of my head, and I turn to look at him. I clench my pussy around his cock at the greedy look in his eyes, the horny look on his face turns me on even more. He closes his eyes for a moment as I tighten around him and then opens them and kisses me.H

    It feels weird. Once again, I feel nervous, that’s what this skittish feeling is right? I want to tell Willow the truth and it comes with the chances of me asking for something more and maybe being a little selfish. So, it’s making me feel this way.It feels weird.We’re sitting at the dinner table and I’m waiting for her to take a bite of her food before she gives it to me. It has no meaning, but I’d like to see her take the first bite before I do.“Let’s be the fairly odd parents for Halloween,” Lucas says to sister and she nods excitedly as she chews her dinner of pizza we were having.“Do you really have to eat a half-bitten pizza?” Willow whispers to me, her brows coming together for a frown meanwhile her cheeks flushed bright red.I looked down at the plate she set down in front of me and raised my brow at the pizza she had bitten.“No,” I answer honestly and Lucas looks up at me, thinking I was talking to him. He shakes his head when he realizes I wasn’t. “But I want to,” I tel

What am I doing so wrong?***“It’s a pleasure doing business with you Mr. Moretti, I assure you, you won’t be disappointed.” The man whose name I can’t bother to remember says with a smile while extending his hand for a handshake.I wanted to tell him to fuck off of my sight before I put a bullet between his fucking eyes.

    WillowA few days earlier.“Willow,” Julia called quietly as we prepped the children’s lunch.“Yes Julia,” I answered and turned to see her holding the saltshaker. “Oh my, don’t tell me I mixed up the salt and sugar again!” I exclaimed.She shook her head as she chuckled.“I don’t even know how you manage to switch them each time.” She says and I puff out my cheeks, feeling heavily embarrassed. “But there’s something else I wanted to discuss with you.” She says and my eyes widen.“Oh, am I in trouble? Did I do something wrong?” I asked.“No, my dear,” Julia says as she emptied the sugar from the saltshaker. “It’s not that, it’s…it’s just, never mind.”“Oh, come on!” I whine. “You can’t just do that, just tell me what it is.”She pauses from refilling the saltshaker with salt and looks at me before sighing and placing it carefully on the counter. Julia looked at me with a small smile, but I felt my heart rate pick up at how sad it was.She reached out and held my hand, her eyes never w

    Willow's POV.“I woke up really early this morning because I thought I was going to have classes but then I remembered it was Halloween break. I was so glad.” Lucas tells me as he spoons his cereal.“Yay!” Isabella my head la squeals in excitement, throwing her tiny arms in the air. I shake my head at them and wipe away breadcrumbs from the little girl’s mouth.The kids are so pumped for Halloween. You can’t imagine the look on their faces when they both got notices for Halloween break, it was wholesome.“Have you decided on what to wear for Halloween?” Julia asks us as she emerges from the kitchen with a jug of orange juice in her hand.I shake my head. “I’m not really looking forward to being in a costume,” I tell her honestly and she laughs.“Wooly can be a princess!” Isabella exclaims with a giddy giggle.“Yeah, easily,” Lucas says smiling so wide that his dimples looked like they were about to sink into his mouth.“Mhm, I’ll think about it,” I tell them. “What about you, Bella?”

    Lorenzo “He’s in chains downstairs, the idiot won’t stop laughing, Zo,” Theodore tells me as I step out of my car. The guards waiting outside bow their heads in respect and I dismiss them as I take off my suit jacket and hand them to one of them.“Don’t worry about it,” I tell him as I walk towards the entrance. “He’ll stop.”Theodore sighs as he follows me, talking about how the guy annoys him more than anything, and that says a lot.“You’re going back to Florida after this right? Let’s go together, I have to see the kids and gift them some money, y’know, for some Halloween shopping.”“No,” I clipped.“No, we can’t go back together or no you’re not going back to Florida?”“No,” I repeat.“You always say yes in a unique way, you’re the best!” He tells me and I shake my head as I tug back the sleeves of my turtle neck slightly.I paused just before entering the chamber and turned to look at a dog held by one of the guards who suddenly stood up.“Whoa, that thing looks furious.” Theodo
