Her eyelids flickered for seconds, reminiscing everything of previous night.The images of his last night's doings replayed like vicious memories. His ways of exploiting her nakedness while she watched was what she knew was only the beginning. He had far reaching objectives ready in his closet. Not that she wanted to find them out, but there was no other way. Faking him affection was the pill she couldn't risk vomiting. At the very moment she reminisced Dominic's shameless demand."What do you want?" She had asked."You"His voice still echoed in her mind as if he just whispered it in her senses. She trembled at the memory, unconsciously clinging to Donavan. Imagining if the mere memory could make her this nauseated, what the actual circumstance would do.There was no way Dominic was off her back just yet and she couldn't keep Donavan near her everyday. A day without her husband was all Dominic needed to exploit her weaknesses and she knew she wasn't in a position of denial. Dominic kn
"Hey" she mumbled nervously, startled at his stare. It was too late to realize she had blurted out the otherwise considered greeting. She immediately felt uncomfortable in the same chair she sat on for past hour.He hadn't expected her to say anything but again, his little vixen was adamant on surprising him."Come here" His thick morning voice called out, softly patting his thigh. It was all it took for her pulse to quicken.Don't be hesitantShe told herself, getting up from the chair. Taking baby steps to the bed, she watched the floor with utter interest, noticing the woody carpet that contrasted with the mirrory hallucination of the room.Her shy demeanor amused him as much as excited him. It took everything in his guts to not pounce on her when she stood in front of him, fathoming whether he literally wanted her to sit in his lap. Controlling the wild demon that scratched his heart to clutch her by the throat and push her down the bed he tried to appear as soft as he could. Gentl
Frantino mansion had a history of decades, the one that witnessed blood and gore, days of celebrations and weeks of massacre. But it always kept its secrets.They remained buried deep within the cracks of unattended walls and whispers of ghosts of ancients.Mansion's intricate infrastructure had received hands of best architects of the time. Antics of frantino mansion were worth millions, the hung paintings couldnt even be began to be valued in dollars. Painstaking golden chandeliers adored every hallway, urging every eye to look over the ceiling. Sculptures from as history could go so behind, stood in deadly silence, ghastly watching every generation of frantinos live and die.With the emergence of Donavan as the new don, nothing had particularly changed except for his will to make the building somewhat aesthetic from its current Gothic exterior. His suite was closely reinfrastructured, allowing more light than it did before, adding the effect of mirrors. The suit's washroom that frig
Maids rustled in the dining room, serving Frantinos their strict Italian lunch on the seemingly lovely afternoon that was anything but.Everyone's tout shoulders and calculated movements were reasonable now that don had somehow made his presence known unannounced. Unusually enough he had canceled, not rescheduled, canceled all his meetings only to stay at the mansion, spending time with his family.Not that his family was pleased at his so unpleasant appearance. They were anything but confused if not downright troubled. His presence meant either a full blown celebration was in order or something gravely horrible was about to happen and yet none of the reasons were fitting at the moment.Except his father, everyone was intrigued. Donavan Sr. had walked down from his donship for a reason, his prominent ignorance. His disinterest in inherited businesses and underground matters was so eminent, that his competitors had almost stripped frantinos of their fortune and respect until the adultho
It had been the most peaceful week of her life.Locked away in the far woods dwelled another frantino mansion. Not knowing exactly where they were Tara kept her curiosity to herself. It was evening by the time they reached. Absolutely bereft of people and concrete whatsoever, Tara watched the mountains from the terrace of the only bedroom of the cozy house. Majestic as expected there was nothing else she wished from life. Mountains, wind and sun.She breathed the fresh air as it insultingly thrashed her hair around. She didn't care. Taken with the thrown around coloures of the sky and the beautifully setting sun, Tara was mesmerized. It was her meditation to stand in open spaces and appreciate the sun and nature, to listen to the wild thrash of wind as it scraped her ears.Forgetting her existence for a moment, noticing her breathe as it blew by, feeling a strand of her hair that stuck in her lip and the bat of her eyelashes that made her lose the sensation of vision only for a brief s
Week passed in a tense blur after their secret getaway. Tara didn't forget to notice how she was regarded in family conversations. Even after being an awkward outsider her opinion mattered. The frantinos would interrupt in conversations with English to feel her welcome in their chat, letting her decide the menus of their dinners and the themes of their parties.In the scary moments of her eye contacts with dominic it would become clearer and clearer that he walked on thin ice every moment. Watching her every move like a beast on its prey, not once did she allow herself to relax under his gaze.For some sacred reason he had kept his distance. Why she didn't know...she couldn't help but grow curious every day for his odd silence, the lack of storm.Don's absence didn't help either. He would hardly visit the mansion. In the rush moments he would take a brief second to watch her working in the distance and go away. From what she had come to know from their time in the woods an important de
"When?" His eyes watched her keenly, growing suspicious of her claim. Tara gulped. Trembling, she tightly held on to the table at her back, supporting her weight as the cold truth splashed her all at once. It was Dominic. For God's sake it was Dominic. She repented her mind for remembering the brush of his nose as it touched her skin, the swirl of his tongue as it licked her breast. A gush of bile rose in her throat. The sheer hatred she felt for herself for not being able to recognize the obvious ill-intentioned man quickly became the ache in her head, twitching painfully. Her legs wildly shook of terror, she grabbed her head in both of her hands, squeezing it to minimize the pain. As she started skidding down out of consciousness, she felt the arms that wrapped around her, picking her up and resting on bed. Just before she lost the contact with consciousness she felt the worried tap on her cheek calling out her name. She realized in what great danger she could have been if she
He hadn't hold himself back. As soon as he carried her inside their suite she found herself pushed back against the door, his lips already on her. His unquenchable thirst was as evident as the current in the lightening bolt.Thunders roared outside their windows, shuddering the very aura of thick air but all he heard was the storm within that ignited an inferno in the coiling vortex, all for her, for the time he endured apart from her. Funny how for someone as concrete as him had started seeing their distance as an illness, an unbearable suffering that throbbed with her trivial memories only to be cured by her touch. Over the darkness that was surprised with sporadic flashing lights of frightening thunders, he only heard the click of their lips as they intertwined, the gentle touch between her skin and the tip of his nose as he dove deeper in her mouth, holding her delicate neck in his snake like grip. The dirt on her hands smudged on his shirt even further when he swiftly picked he
