CHAPTER 24

Francesca's POV.

“Thank you very much…”

No. That sounds too low for me.

“I didn't know you would hold your own part of the bargain. That's good of you…”

Now, that was way too arrogant, even for me.

“I need you to know how much I appreciate your help…”

That sounds inauthentic.

I groaned and stared at the ceiling fan, confused and frustrated. I'd tried to have a conversation with Enzo, but we hadn’t talked since the wedding night. By the time he came back home yesterday, I was already asleep.

Now he was in the bathroom, and I was unprepared to tell him thank you for helping me. I needed to come up with something before he'd-

I heard the shower turn off, and he walked out of the bathroom with only a towel tied around his waist.

I opened my mouth to say something, but all the things I'd rehearsed faded from my mind immediately. My tongue had somehow turned to an immovable blub of cement, and all I could do was to gawk at his body.

He had conspicuous marks and scars all over his

    Chapter 25Francesca's POV"You know...", She said and slowly began roaming the kitchen aimlessly, "I thought Enzo was joking when he told me he'd taken a cheap prostitute like you as a wife, but he wasn't. I don't know why he took you as a responsibility out of nowhere, but I know it's definitely not because he loves you.""Wh... What's that supposed to mean?", I tried to question firmly, even though it was evident that I was shaking."Oh, you didn't know?", She looked my way with surprise on her face. "Enzo is married to the game before he's married to any woman, Francesca. This life that he lives comes with too many commitments for him to be committed to any woman - talk less of a bitch like you", she stared at me with disgust in her eyes."He's gone too deep. He's killed many people. He's destroyed too many lives for him to experience or even give someone the tiniest piece of heart. Whatever he's doing with you, is probably just knee high. Something to distract him and take his ey

    Chapter 26Stefano's POV.We watched as the doctor applied the last touches on her wound before applying some bandage on it."I think she will be just fine after this. We've sterilized the cut, and all we can do is to wait for the healing to take place-""That's not what I brought her for, doctor. I brought her here so you can do the healing. So I don't have to wait. Isn't this one of the best hospitals in the whole of the country?"The doctor gawked at us, evidently dumbfounded. "Well, I can't really control...""Stefano, cut the man some slack. He's done the best he can. I told you there was no need for you to take me here in the first place", Francesca tried to give the man some breathing space.I dismissed him and we sat there in the room for a while. "I wish you would've let me come at that crazy puta. I can't believe she still wants to be in his life", Stefano cursed."I want to ask a question..."I walked over to her and gently raised her head with my finger on her chin. "Anyt

    Chapter 27Francesca's POV.His simple statement managed to suck air out of my lungs.It was as though time stopped, the only thing in this world that existed was him.I slowly lifted my gaze and stared into his polished black, scary eyes, hoping he was trying to make a joke with it.But it didn't look like he was trying to be funny.What kind of joke was this?Was he just trying to prey on the fact that I might still be in love with him, or did he mean the word he just said.I stared into his eyes, and now I couldn't look away. He moved a step closer to me, and I couldn't feel his breath on my face. He could hear my heartbeat. How could hear how irregular and fast it was going.Cold beads of sweat began to form on my head, and my hands got colder."Emilio...""Tell me that you don't want me. Tell me that you don't have feelings for me anymore, and I'll take a step back. I'll walk out of this room and never look your way again", he said in a daring manner.I opened my mouth, planning

    Chapter 28Luna's POVI always hated Stefano from the beginning.It wasn't until today that I had a solid reason to.If not for him, I would've written my name on that bitch's face with that kitchen knife.I knew I would not be able to calm down until I got some alcohol into my system, so I went over to this girls only party a friend invited me to.I'd stayed hours here, and I was getting tired. Everyone was having the time of their lives, but I was drinking to forget the fact that Enzo was marrying a cheap whore over me.I was about to leave when I got a call from an unknown number.“Hello? Who's this?”, I questioned, but the music from the party was too loud. The reception was also bad, so I decided to get out of the building to get some network.I usually didn't take calls from unknown numbers, but I assumed that it was a contact from Barcelona asking me to help them for their fashion show, or a television channel asking for an interview.It wasn't until then that I realized that

    Chapter 29Enzo’s POVI tried Stefano's number with my right hand while my left hand was handling the steering wheel, but for some reason, it wasn't going through. A lot of things were going on right now, but I needed to be sure that Francesca was safe.I thought of quickly heading over to the mansion to make sure she was alright, but I couldn't leave my group in a critical condition.I immediately drove into the warehouse and met Xander on the stairs.“Thank goodness. I was just about to go find you. There's serious trouble”, he expressed his worry.“Walk me through the situation as detailed as possible”, I ordered as we headed to the conference, where an emergency meeting was about to be held.“I got on the phone with our shipment head, and he informed me that the goods sank in the ship. Also, ten of our men who were waiting at the border were killed brutally, with body parts missing.”I could take the missing shipments, but one thing I couldn't forgive was the death of my men.I i

I suggest you think twice before doing that, so this young promising cugine's future doesn't come to an end.I didn't know to be surprised or pissed. The fact that this son of a gun could show up here after what he'd just caused us was what enraged me even more.I walked over to him and pointed my gun to his head, my finger on the trigger. “Give me one reason why I shouldn't sacrifice this boy's life for your own death.”“Well, cause you're going to lose a lot more than the poor boy if you kill me. I've given the Cassano members details of your other shipments coming from Istanbul, Morocco and Peru. They're diligently waiting at the borders to intercept and take over the goods. If my heart stops beating right now, they'll have an automated signal from this ankle lock to go ahead with the mission.”A part of me wanted to call bluff,

Francesca was back here, she was in my room because I didn't feel safe keeping her in my house when I spent so much time here. I was occupied by my thoughts when I heard a shriek, it was followed by a gunshot then I saw her flash past myself like lightning.It looked like she didn't actually see me because she passed by so fast as she ran to my father's study room and I could hear her yell from the place I stayed. I watched with anxiety creeping over me, I didn't know what to expect. Luna wasn't one to back down unless she faced a real challenge, she would fight until her head was gone in that battle.Worst of all, she was with a gun.I heard rapid gunshots, it pierced through the air and this was the time I heard my father's shrill scream asking for help. Without thinking, I ran upstairs but just as I was about to open the door. It clicked, I wasn't with a gun or anything so I made a

I knew my father to be a man of his words and he would never stand down whenever he said something. I guess I just turned everything away for a woman, a woman that I knew nothing about. She was just a stripper and a sexual worker and I didn't understand her. But my heart throbbed for her, it wanted her and my dick pulsated at the sight of her naked body. I wanted her more than anything at this point. I wanted to be coated in her pussy juice and forget all my worries.This was all I thought as I walked down to the room, I walked into the room. I watched everywhere with cautious eyes, I wanted to notice something that seemed out of ordinary but there was none.Everything was put into place, I walked to the wardrobe, pulling it open with force like I expected something to pop out.There was nothing. I left that, clicking the complicated press codes that

He didn't look sick, I judged the look in his eyes, he looked like he was about to run mad.Just as I stood by the side, shaking with blood all over. I was traumatized, I saw the head of Emilio, he was peeping at me from the side. This made my breath hitch, I didn't know what he was doing but based on the look in Enzo's eyes, if he saw him then he wouldn't help me but he would join hands with Paolo and beat the living death off my body.So I mouthed, “ E- N- Z- O” It was slowly, he understood and his eyes widened in shock as he ducked and placed his head back into the hole. I let out a sigh of relief, then I looked at Enzo, I looked at him with a burning look and in a moment, he leaped to my side but he didn't hold me, he held Paolo by the back.Everything was getting chaotic, he wasn't letting him go and the guards were concentrating on him but they didn't come closer.

I stared at my father without batting an eyelid, I was shocked to the bones, I laid at the dead body that was right in front of me.Blood.I felt nauseous, I placed my hands over my mouth, trying to stop the vomit from leaving my mouth as I glared at him.That was the nurse, the nurse that I had sent off to go look for my father. He killed her, I just watched.Francesa looked relieved to see me.What did he do to her? She was bleeding, there were scratches all over her face, her lips were bleeding, her head had an injury.And I was sure it was Paolo.He did this to me and now he was doing the same to her, he was becoming a beast. He was the worst, I couldn't stand looking at him as I snarled, walking over the dead body with a heavy heart.My leg mistakenly stepped on her face, shutting her eyes that were wide open.This made me feel more nauseous, I glared at him, looking at the men that he had ga

    Chapter 83 ENZO I woke up with a bitter taste on my tongue.“ Water.” I called out in panic but my voice reverberated in the room, there was no one there. I thought it was just my ears, my eyes couldn't fail me so I looked around and to my despair, there was no one there.I was left alone.I felt my eyes burn, the hot tears spilled off my eyes in panic. This was the first time I felt that way, so I called out softly,“ Francesa.” It was soft, barely a whisper, though I didn't know why I thought she would be here to care for me.But she wasn't, she wasn't here for me and I couldn't imagine where she was. My hands moved to the bedspread, grasping it in my grip as I cried softly.My eyes burnt and my chest ached.I was in the hospital, I didn't want to be here. I screamed out, trying to find my voice and get someone's attention but I only succeeded in pulling out the syringe that was tucked into my skin then the blood splattered and my veins constricted as I whined in pain.“ Oh God.

Why does he need me?” The nurse was stunned, we shared the same reaction as we said, “ But-” He didn't let me continue nor her, he shut me up as he said, “ But nothing. There's nothing you could say that would make me leave here.”He turned to me as he made a clear emphasis on his last sentence, that made me remember the situation I was in right.Crap!I stood still, if he didn't want to leave then I would. With that, I turned and walked off from where I was standing, I tried to pass him but he held me by the arm and pulled me back, “ Where do you think you are going?” He showed off his teeth, his eyes thinned to show how serious he was.That

I sighed in relief, closing my eyes as I thanked God, then I felt a tug on my leg, I didn't want to move.I knew who it was down there, I didn't need to look, that would make it all suspicious and I had Paolo's eyes on me.“ What is it?” He asked, I shook my head, moving down slowly from the table as I tried to manage my legs that were shaking from the pleasure that I had experienced previously, I kept my head up and tried to keep my breathing steady.I needed to act normal though I wasn't.But if he found out, I could guarantee Emilio's safety but I couldn't for me.

They were bound less.My world stopped for a second, the world stopped and my breath hitched at his words as I looked at him. His words still buzzed in my mind, it kept on throbbing and echoing. It made me question myself as I gulped, looking at him.“ What?” I asked him, looking the other way as the red crept up my cheeks. I didn't understand what he meant, he smiled and laughed. Realization dawned, nausea kicking in my veins. I felt used like he didn't mean it and it was just a mere mockery that I had fallen for so I looked the other way. When he saw my look, he laughed harder as he cupped my cheeks, pulling my face to rest on his forehead.“ Don't you understand English anymore?” My ears rang from his words, I shook my head as I said, “ We shouldn't. We can't.”“ Why can't we?” He exp

I thought he had brought me into this room for sex, it turns out that it was because of this.But what exactly? He wanted to beat me. I pushed him, sneering at him as I spat at him and said, “ Leave me the fuck alone, Emilio.” He didn't have the chance to shut me up, I brushed against him as I pushed him to the side and was walking to the door. He ran after me, grabbing me by the hand as he aggressively twisted me to the side and pinned my body against the sharp edges of the table. There was little space for me on the table, moreover; I was thrashing and kicking, I wasn't going to let him do this to me.Bang! He pushed off all the documents on the ground, scattering them and destroying them. He was making it obvious that he was here.He picked me up, hurling me on the table as my back slammed against it and there was a cra

I'm sure he has never expected it to happen looking at the look on his face. He shook. Like there was nothing inside of him then he looked up dramatically and started walking at the speed of lightning. He fell to his knees, holding the bare cables that let out sparks. He pushed the clothed side, infusing the wires together as he made sure that they were intertwined.The machine suddenly gasped, propelled by force and power. Enzo followed suit, his eyes popped open as he clutched the bedsheet.“ Oh.” I gasped weakly, letting go like I was about to fall off because my body moved back slowly and I looked frail. I looked frail, like I had no energy. But luckily, I was caught from the back by Stefano. He placed his hands on my waist, I looked up at him, biting my lips as I pushed him away.“ Don't you fu

I didn't know what came over me, I had no sense of reasoning as I hurled his body to the wall and rammed him over again with anger and gritted teeth. “ Why! Why?” I asked in disbelief, I couldn't believe that he would do something as devious as this.He looked surprised, his mouth was ajar, he just stared at me as he didn't understand what was happening. His hands were raised, he looked at me innocently with no words, it made me feel bad. I let him go with a thump.He was surprised, pulling himself off the wall as he asked me with a stutter,” What was that for?” I didn't answer him immediately, I was still catching my breath from what I had done to him. I was breathing harshly, holding my chest as I pointed at him in disdain, disgusted by the way he was being nonchalant.So I asked him in clearer terms, “ Did you do this to him?” He looked at him, h
