“I'm so sorry, I didn't think the garden would be in such a bad state,” Luciano said apologetically and helped Olivia sit. He thought it would make dinner with her private and romantic. He had made reservations at the most exclusive restaurant. Unfortunately, they said some man bought the entire thing.And now they had to get inside the restaurant, the restaurant had two outlets. The second floor had nicely arranged tables, one could see what was going on down. Luciano chose the one below. He said it was more peaceful. Hence, they took a table which was more suitable for the occasion. Far away from the noise and the rest of the people having their meals.“It's okay,” Olivia said, adjusting herself comfortably. It was difficult to believe that the man before her did all the bad things to her family.“Here you go, what will you have,” the waiter serving them said after serving them some appetizers. Luciano didn't know what he wanted and hence glanced at Olivia, who picked up the menu.
“You are a fucking coward… A fucked up man hiding behind a little gun and pathetic minions!” Luciano yelled with many struggles, two huge and well-built men held him down while Pedro stood in front of him.“I'm only sparing you to warn you, don't touch my woman ever again,” Pedro said more calmly, the urge to shoot Luciano until life was sucked out of him was unavoidable. However, he calmed his nerves. “She's not your woman, a pathetic man like you doesn't deserve a woman like her… I'd rather die than let you have her!”His voice was so loud that Pedro noticed it, anyone would feel intimidated by Luciano's Rage. However, it was a different case as he swung his gun in front of a kneeling Luciano.“I despise men like you, isn't it enough that you can't keep your woman safe… Or should I remind you how you killed the other one,” Pedro said lazily and lowered down to Luciano's size. The man was caught off guard. Ganging up, Luciano swallowed hard, not sure how Pedro came to know of such se
“How…just how much do you love him?” Pedro asked while kissing her inner thighs. By now, Olivia was fully awake. Tied up and exposed, Pedro didn't look like his usual self. There was anger in his eyes, but she saw how he was trying to keep calm. His hand rested on her belly, sucking in her breath. Olivia shook her head.“You can't keep away from him… you love him even after what he did,” Pedro mumbled as if trying to convince himself. Olivia felt bad, she didn't understand why her heart was in despair, hearing Pedro.“That's not true… please untie me,” she said, hoping he would until her. They needed to talk like two adults. It wasn't every time that he had to switch to something torturous. “Why can't you forget him…” this time, his hands circled her neck. He wasn't choking her but pulled her close. Their faces are an inch from each other. Olivia sensed something different about him, the way he was looking at her. She didn't back away but kept her eyes on him. Looking deep into his e
The rains had begun at night, Olivia thought it would stop after some time, unfortunately even when it was morning the rain continued pouring heavily.Olivia already noticed they were at a cottage, somewhere far away from civilization.“Pedro,” she called out in a sleepy voice, rubbing her eyes as she tried shifting when she realized the man was still on top of her.Somehow in the middle of the night, things got heated, unlike most times, she and Pedro shared a different intimacy. There was no talking, for the first time she felt something powerful.Opening her eyes, a smile crept on her face when she found him sleeping like some child, snuggling to her. His breathing was stable. His grip on her hip tightened, and Olivia knew the man had enough of her.“Hey, wake up now,” she muttered, reaching for his neck, her hands sliding down his back. He was naked and so was she.“If you move… I'm sure both of us will have a hard time,” surprisingly Pedro said in a sleepy voice, startled, Olivia'
Olivia thought Pedro had some serious issues to attend to, however, after reaching the villa she always stayed at. He asked her to freshen up. After an awkward night, Pedro had been acting strange, she showed up and got dressed up. He, too, got dressed up in a black suit. He didn't call for a drive or a crazy escort like he normally did, just the two of them.She got in his car and he asked her to calm herself. Of course, everything about the man scared her. He was someone difficult to read. Pedro was unpredictable, any woman would be frightened to be with him for a very long time.Every minute she spent with him, she felt as if she wouldn't make it alive.“I'm a monster… you are afraid,” he said, startling her, Olivia realized she had been looking at him the whole time. Averting her eyes, she sunk into her seat. The man chuckled and focused his eyes on the road ahead. “I can be afraid… but I can't if you tell me about yourself,” she said fiddling with her hands, several times she had
Alfredo was against anything that had to do with illegal things. He understood the serious issues the family was facing. However, the idea of involving himself in something shady didn't sit well with him. “Philip is angry, Solange went missing, and I have my suspicions,” Antonia said, crossing her legs elegantly. The fight between her family and the enemy just began. Solange was her daughter-in-law. She disappeared a week ago. Her father had tried searching for her, unfortunately to no avail. “I have work to do… I'll see you around,” Luciano said, glancing at his phone. He didn't care what happened to Solange, his only concern was Livia. After what he discovered, he didn't think he would stay still. He was too overwhelmed by emotions. “Son, I'm afraid this is your responsibility… your wife is missing, so stop acting like that and find her,” Antonia yelled, stopping Luciano in his tracks. Alfredo knew Luciano never loved Solange, the consequences of forcing him to marry a woman he di
Olivia waited for his reply, this was important to her. At least if she had to fight for Pedro, then she had to have a valid reason for doing so. There was too much at stake, and being sure where she stood in Pedro's life was crucial to her.His grip on her face tightened. There was so much doubt and uncertainty in his eyes, his gaze softened as she tried to search for anything that would guarantee her he was hers and no one else.“I see… at the end of the day… you don't know what you want,” Olivia said, shrugging his hands away and preparing to leave when he grabbed her hand, stopping her from going anywhere. Pedro pulled her back and hugged her from behind. She would rather not stay with him. It was best she left his house and went somewhere else alone. He was indecisive. He didn't know what he wanted.“Whatever it is, I'm willing to do… But being tied to me… is dangerous,” Pedro muttered, burying his face in the crook of her neck, his hot breath brushing against her skin as a cold
“What? Are you going to stare at me like that?” Olivia asked Sydney, who didn't utter a word since they met. She was just staring at her. Of course, it was difficult to believe she was still alive. Sydney gulped down another glass of water to cool off. Still in shock.“It's…it's incredible… I didn't think or imagine…tell me what happened that night,” Sydney said hesitantly. Finally, she was able to see Olivia. Something she had always wished for, unfortunately her face was different. She wouldn't have recognized her even if she had a third eye.“It's a long story…where can I start from,” Olivia remarked with an exhalation. Everything happened so fast and unexpected that night. She was celebrating her birthday, not realizing what was lurking in the shadows. Luciano and his family planned it all.“I wish we knew what he was all about…poor aunt and uncle…even Lalo…how can they be so cruel,” Sydney said, hating the sight of the Garcia family, she guessed right the entire time? Her friend's
**Four Years Later**"Mommy, mommy watch me fly!" A little girl's giggles erupted throughout the room. "Sweetie, stop it now!" A woman shouted from afar but the girl didn't stop giggling. "Madam, leave her…kids her age are like this," an elderly lady told the woman beside her who was busy decorating a cake. The woman was dressed in a halter-neck, sleeveless blue dress which hugged her voluptuous figure in the right places. She was nothing but a beauty to behold. Her smile was as charming and serene as the calm waters of the sea. Her long blonde hair cascaded to her in a wavy way."She can hurt herself…she's too much," it was none other than Olivia who said with a frown and continued decorating the cake."It's her fourth birthday… like every year you bake a cake for her…she's lucky to have a caring mother like you," the elderly who was none other than her daughter's nanny said. Her boss was a working class woman. She was always busy with her clients. But when it came to her daughter,
After that dreadful night, many lives were lost. Antonia was arrested for attempted murder. However, she later killed herself in prison after hearing about the death of her two lovely sons. Bianca went crazy after everything. She was admitted to the asylum to get better. “It's been 5 months Pedro…please come back,” Olivia whispered as she ran her hand over the concrete granite with Pedro's name engraved in it. Tears trickled down her face. The despair of not having the man she loved beside her. “I'm five months pregnant…don't you want to see our baby,” she added as her hand shifted to her belly. After all that, she went through. She and Pedro's child survived, but he didn't. She missed him a lot. It didn't feel real that the man she loved more than anything was no more. They didn't get to enjoy each other's company. “Why did you do this…why did you make me love you!” A yell escaped her trembling lips, everything seemed dark. Her life was without colors. Everything was back to norma
The rain stopped immediately as dawn approached. The sun rose at its full peak. The city which always seemed lively was like a dead jungle. No life, like a nightmare. Olivia was still on her knees by the edge of the cliff waiting for the man she loved to come back. Her clothes which had been drenched with both rain and blood had dried up. The police were running to and from retrieving dead bodies and putting them in the ambulance. Ira stood by Olivia, afraid of what to say to her. This was a sad moment for her. The fact that Pedro was no more pained, not just her. Both those who had followed him for years."She needs to come home," Jordan whispered to Ira, it was a shame they showed up when it was too late. But Pedro had ordered them to save Zane and Sydney. Although Zane was shot in the arm, he was recuperating in the hospital. "He has to be here…he isn't…I'll wait for him," she wasn't going to leave until she saw Pedro. Ira and Jordan exchanged glances and knew how painful it was
“You are naive…do you think I'll let this slut go?” Bruce yelled while his men held Luciano down from escaping. Olivia was unconscious and getting hoisted near the cliff while tied up.“You traitor…you killed your brother!” Luciano yelled and tried to get free,. Unfortunately, the men had injected him with something which made him helpless.“Everything…was planned by you…you deceived everyone,” he didn't know there was a devil far more heartless behind Everything. He betrayed Olivia's trust by pretending to love her, only to attempt to kill her and her family. All those years, he was made to believe Olivia's father was responsible for his father's cruel death.“I killed him… I made those inmates torture him…then I sent someone to finish him off” Bruce remarked sarcastically and kicked Luciano in the gut. Despite the pain, Luciano didn't dare show it. Flickering his eyes open, he tried moving toward where Olivia was tied up in midair, but he could. “I hate you…you ruined people's live
Nothing broke Olivia's heart more than seeing her loved ones dying before her eyes. Sydney was in agony, crying as she tried to make sense of what had happened. Alfredo was dead. Despite everything that happened, Olivia was aware of how Sydney felt about him. He was her first love. She still recalled how the two met, Olivia couldn't help but hug Sydney to comfort her."That's enough, don't blame yourself," Olivia whispered and caged Sydney in her arms. However, Sydney was uncontrollably weeping her heart out. Even Zane standing on the sidelines felt his heart ache. Alfredo wasn't a bad guy, he was just born into a family who caused others pain."He saved me…sobs…he…I killed him" Sydney cried her heart out Zane went on his knees and pried her off Olivia. He couldn't take it anymore. "And he doesn't want you to cry like this…pull yourself together," he whispered and planted a kiss on her cheek, with the rain pouring heavily, the scenery was something which broke Olivia's heart."We nee
"Agh! L-let.." Marcos tried to catch his breath but with each breath he felt a sharp pain in his chest. Pedro cradled the man in his arms trying by all means to stop the bleeding on his chest but he couldn't. Blood was oozing out like a fountain. "Stop talking…I'll have my men take you to the hospital," Pedro said knowing he would make sure Marcos was safe, unfortunately, Marcos let out a sarcastic laugh. "L-leave me…it's…it's no point…" even if Pedro managed to destroy the room and rescue him. Marcos knew he wouldn't last a day. He was dead, there was no saving him. "I didn't know, you were so weak," Pedro muttered with a frown and looked around for anyone. He knew his men would arrive. "Save…save my sister…that monster…he has her!" Marcos struggled to voice out the words but ended up coughing out blood. Pedro's brows knitted together. "She'll be fine…let's move," Pedro muttered and prepared to get up when Marcos held his hand. "Don't…I don't have much time…" he said and closed
“Fucking face it…there's no getting out of here!” Alfredo groaned in frustration as he tried to reach for the chains he was tied with, unfortunately with the way he was all tied up. It was impossible even to think.“Says a coward… I'm fucking getting out!” Zane groaned and tried to swing himself, so he could reach the wall but was tied up with chains upside down. It was a bad position. “Says a man who has done more harm than good,” Alfredo scoffed, having no idea why he was trapped with a mafia when he was supposed to be saving Sydney. “What about you, huh? Instead of protecting the woman you claimed to love…you fucking let your pathetic family harm her!” Zane spat out bitterly, his eyes filled with hatred, but Alfredo did care. Sydney has always been in love with him. He did all he could.“You know nothing about us… I'm the man she loves and will always love…she's in all this mess because of you, bloody mafias,” he stood by his words, the night he met Sydney, he fell in love with h
Corina's eyes rolled in ecstasy; she could feel her juices dripping down. Just the sight of Pedro's naked body had her drooling. Touching herself as she crawled on the bed."After tonight…there will be no denying me…my love for you," she whispered and ran her finger from his chest and stopped at his abs."Do you remember…the wild night we had…how dominant and barbaric you…used to be," she leaned down and ran her tongue on his abs. A smirk crept on her face as she watched him struggling. Of course, the drug she gave him rendered him useless….he couldn't move nor talk. He was completely overpowered and not in control."You've always been the one who set my soul on fire," she added and lay on her side. Her hair fell to the sides as she got a better view of Pedro. Scanning his perfectly sculpted body. He was the man, sexy and held power. Such traits he possessed. This was the kind of man she had always desired."My love…we are going to have fun," she muttered and reached her hand for Pe
Corina's eyes flashed with hatred upon hearing what Pedro had to say. After everything, he was insisting on being Olivia. “I love you Pedro…you mean the world to me…why do you insist on being with her!” Corina yelled and grabbed Pedro's shirt. She couldn't take it anymore. She was a beautiful woman, even better than Olivia, so why was he doing this?“Is this… Why you want to see me… I told you…the only woman I love is Olivia,” Pedro shoved her hands away and turned away. His feelings had changed over the past months. He wasn't like this, meeting Olivia, everything changed.“You are lying…wake up, Pedro …she's not the one for me… I'm stronger than her…we…we make a good couple,” Corina was irritated to know Pedro didn't want her. It was the middle of the night. All she wanted was to be with Pedro.“I thought you had something sensible to tell me…but I can see you are still mentally ill,” Pedro remarked, keeping Corina at arm's length. She called him saying she had an idea of the main m
