Lorenzo's POV
Knock. knock. Knock.
Where the fuck is she?
I have been standing and knocking outside this fucking door for the past couple of minutes, with no response of whatsoever from her.
My gentlemanly gesture is growing thin by the minute, and what pisses me off the more is the fact I have been told she is inside the room.
"Nadia!" I called out, banging hard on the door alongside.
After some time, I heard the door click open from the inside, after which I waited for the door to open, but nothing was happening.
I pushed open the door and walked in to see Nadia not dressed and sleeping on the bed.
The now wrinkled dress and accessories were pushed to one side of the bed that was pretty much occupied by her.
“Why are you not dressed," I inquired, trying so hard to control the anger that was pili
Nadia's POV I woke up the next morning and went about my morning routine. I did a hundred pushups exercises after which I went to take a hot shower. After some minutes, I came out and wore a black crop top on black jeans shorts, I brought out a pair of black sneakers to put on. I packed my hair into a ponytail and applied a little makeup on my face. I stood opposite the mirror staring at my reflection as my mind drifted back to what happened last night. It was a perfect evening outing until that call came in, who called him and what did the person say to him? Does it have anything to do with Ghost?
Nadia's POVWe both stared at each other eyes for a while, he kept his face emotionless while his hand held the gun in its place. The men from behind him looked at us looking stunned as to what was happening.Or maybe it's the clothes that I had on was what was distracting them.Motherfucker, is he going to shoot me or what, as it stands I do not know much about the man my heart has chosen to fall for.He just fucking killed his whore without blinking, what would stop him from killing me too if I pissed him off.“I fucking told you to stay in your room,” he said as his eyes held mine in a daring gaze.Yes of course I remember him saying that I am not deaf, I just didn't listen.Maybe next time he should try saying stay in your room or have your brains blown out.His general demeanor screamed danger, a sight that would make any normal girl cower in fear for her life.But that was not the case for me, if
Nadia's POV You are mine now Those words kept echoing in my head all through the sail from the island to the city. I have never belonged or be owned by anyone before, and even though he seem cold-hearted to me, it felt nice to be claimed by him. It was already dark and super cold, by the time we got to land. An all-black tinted expensive car was waiting for us by the time we arrived. Lorenzo kept himself busy all through the journey by tapping away on his phone. I thought of how I have missed my phone and how nice it would be to hear my uncle's voice. It's not that I was exactly missing him but since he is the only blood relation I have left, there was still a little part of me that wanted to know how he was doing. Especially now that they might have loosed track of where I was exactly. He might be worried.
Nadia's POVI woke up the next morning feeling soreness between my legs, other than that, I felt awesome.I opened my eyelids to see that Lorenzo was up and fully ready in his black pants and white shirt.He sure looks like a healthy morning snack.“Good morning,” he said as he slid into the bed space beside me to give me a tender kiss, it started with little kisses that grew into mouth gulping kisses, I instantly forgot the achingly feeling in my pussy and was more than willing to oblige him for any further action.Fuck, I am gradually turning into a sex addict, like who wouldn't be, waking up next to a guy who looks like he just had a quick meeting with all the Greek gods put together.“If we continue this, you will make me late,” he said as he broke off the kiss, my lips felt Fuller and ached for more action.His expensive cologne tickled my nose and made me want to lean closer to him.“Where ar
Lorenzo's POVI sat on the chair sipping whiskey from my glass and trying to find a reason not to go back to the fucking bed to smash her fine ass one more time.That is all I tend to think of whenever I am with her, she drives me nuts like no other woman has ever done to me.It's less than twenty-four hours to the dinner party and I am yet to tell her that I am Ghost, I don't even know how she would react, I wish I told her from the onset, I played this bodyguard shit game for too long.But hopefully, after the dinner party, I would be able to explain myself to her. That is if she does not fucking kill me before tomorrow is over.She turned on the bed making me aware that she might wake up anytime soon. She opened her eyes and looked around to see that I was seated on the chair.She looked fucking sexy with her hair looking all messed up, I wish I could do more than mess her hair and body up, maybe I could tattoo my name in her heart so she
Nadia's POVI woke up the next morning with a terrible headache, it felt as if they were pounding on my head, I placed my right hand on my head in an attempt to stop it from pounding.Slowly peeling both of my eyes open, I sat upright on the bed and rubbed my eyes with the back of my hands while thinking about what happened the night before.The truth is I can't seem to remember which part was real and which part is a dream.where the fuck is he anyway?I looked around to see that Lorenzo was nowhere in sight, initially, I thought that he was in the bathroom. but, when no sound was coming from in there, I knew he was far gone.I saw shopping bags carefully placed on the chair with what I assume to be a note from him carefully placed on it.I removed the warm blanket from my body and stepped out of the bed and walked over to where the shopping bags were. I
Nadia's POV The limo ride to the hotel where the event will be taking place was luxurious. After the kiss, we pretty much just sat back in the chair in complete silence as the city passed by the tinted window. I felt Lorenzo's eyes steadily on every part of my body and that made me feel electric waves all over my body. It was an awesome feeling. I was a bit nervous and scared that I will be in the same room with the monster who murdered my entire family and turned me into an orphan at an early age. But, I guess it's nothing i can't deal with, I kind of feel that i was made for this. “Nadia” Lorenzo calmly called out. Heat came up my cheeks which made me look at him shyly. I always feel nervous about the way he calls my name. “yes” I answered and looked at his eyes, I felt something, or call it an emotional jolt through my entire spine. There is a way I feel when I am with him, it's
Lorenzo's POVFuck!I wish there was another way of letting her know that I am the one she has been looking for without having to hurt her.Watching her in a confused state while heading to the lady's room broke my heart and I would have followed her instantly if not that I have been informed that Dmitri was alone by himself at the other side of the hall.I hurried through the crowd after telling some of my guards to keep an eye on the lookout for Nadia.Hopefully, I can get Dmitri to confuse his crime to prove to Nadia that I am not the enemy she has been looking for.That in fact, is the one she calls family that has brought her so much pain and is willing to do more.“Excuse me,” I said after intentionally bumping into him in the hallway.That was just a way of placing a mini microchip on him, it's very small that it can be very difficult to without.But strong enough to send voice signals and
Lorenzo's POV “Can you hear me, if you can, I want you to squeeze my hand a little" I heard a friendly male voice say to me? I was feeling a bit weak like I had just woken up from deep sleep, I didn't know where I was or who I was with, many questions flooded through my mind as I squeeze on the hand that was placed on mine. “Good, very good, now I want to follow the ray of light that I will flash while your eyes are still closed,” he said as I felt a sharp light moving across my eyes, I unconsciously tighten my eyelids. “Relax, just relax, now I want you to open your eyes slowly, I have turned off the torchlight, but the room is fully Illuminated, I want you to do it slowly” I tried opening my eyes, at first it felt like they were glued together as my eyelids seem heavy, but when I finally had them opened, my eyes fell on the elderly-looking doctor who smiled at me as soon as he saw m
six months laterNadia's POVIt's been six months Lorenzo, each day without you feels like a century. how long do you intend to punish me more? I miss you so much, I miss your smile, your laughter, and the way you love me.Do you still love me, Lorenzo?Our kids are growing up super fast, they are crawling and making attempts to stand on their two feet. I wish you were here to see how adorable they are, and they look every inch like you.Your mum has been very supportive, she comes in regularly to check how we are doing. your mum is a strong woman, if I ever become half the woman that she is then I will be truly blessed.I don't know what more to do or say to make you understand how deeply I mirror to see you, you have to fight Lorenzo, if not for me but your kids and mother.I long to see you play with children, I w
Seven days laterNadia's POV"Are you sure you are ready to face him?" Scarlett asked with genuine concern in her tune.She was seated on the chair watching me as I put final touches on my very light makeup. I didn't want to appear before my evil uncle looking weary or in distress, I want to him to see that I am still happy before he dies.I want him to know that even though he stole everyone and everything from me, that I am still going to be happy, I want my smiling face to be the last thing he sees before I sniff the life out of him.I stood at the mirror to look at myself in the black leather pants and black crop top I had on, my Tommy had snapped back a few days after my delivery. I parked my hair into a ponytail, leaving a few strands of hair to dance freely in my face, and lastly, I wore my pair of b
Nadia POV I woke up to a whole new wave of pain, my hand instinctively went to my lower abdomen to feel the bandage that was carefully placed on my Tommy, it fucking hurt. I looked up to see that Scarlett was sitting by my side, her expression was a mixture of happiness and gloominess. Now that was not what I was expecting to see, especially since we all have been excitedly waiting to see the babies. I too wasn't exactly happy and the reason is not far-fetched, I expected Lorenzo to be here when I wake up since I didn't see him all through last night. My mind went back to how I walked in on Vicenzo in the waiting area what was he doing there and why was he covered Scarlett was not exactly looking at me, she didn't know I was awake, I tried sitting up and noticed my Tommy was hurting badly, that was when she shifted her gaze back to me. “Hey you,” she said wearing a genuine smile. “Hey,” I replied “Congratulations," sh
Vicenzo's POVI quickly took off my jacket and pressed it on Lorenzo's head, using both hands as hard as I could to stop the bleeding as there was so much blood pumping out of his head."Let's take him up," I said to the men with me who were looking rather confused about what to do. I soon figured out their confusion as I angrily took my rifle from where I dropped it on the floor to smash unsuspecting Dmitri's head.His body collapsed to the floor. That instant I didn't care about Lorenzo's orders which were to keep the bastard alive, as my only concern at that moment was how to keep Lorenzo alive.We quickly carried Lorenzo out of there and we soon as we got into the main house, there was an ambulance waiting outside the house. Two male nurses ran towards us carrying the stretcher with them and immediately they got to where we were, they lifted him into the stretcher while an oxygen mask was quickly placed over his nostrils. Seconds later, they car
Lorenzo POVHave you ever been hit by a baseball bat on your chest or in your Tommy?It is not exactly something fun to look forward to, and the fact that I was wearing a bulletproof vest did not in any way hinder the effect of the gunshot that I just received.“So you are wearing a bulletproof?” he asked after not seeing any sign of blood on my shirt.“So you are a coward, huh?” I said to the motherfucker who seem to be enjoying my pains.I thought of ways of having this dude take the fucking gun off my face, as I know that any wrong move from me can cost me my life, and I don't fucking want to die. Those swift turns and moves you see lead actors do In the movies are film tricks, you can't go pissing off a guy with a gun to your head“No, I just don't like cliché. I mean, what's the use of having this conversation when I can just put a bullet through your brains and save myself the stress of
Nadia's POVI'm asking you to marry meI'm asking you to marry meI'm asking you to marry meLorenzo's voice kept echoing on my head over and over again.Have you ever felt as you have just been hit by a thunderbolt?Please don't get me wrong, I am sure that I love Lorenzo a lot but, is it enough for me to want to spend a lifetime with him?what If he is just treating me nicely because he feels pity for me, what if he changes after we get married? Do I want to get married? Will I be a good wife?“Please say something” Lorenzo who has been starting at me from across the table said.“I..*clears throat*I...don't think I am ready to get married” I heard myself say.What the Fuck!I can't believe I just said that, I mean, I do like him a lot an
Nadia’s POV“You still haven't told me where you are taking me to,” I tiredly said to Lorenzo who was busy picking the perfect dress for me from the wardrobe. He came to the room this evening and suddenly realized that we have never really had an actual date, and that he has been planning for us to have one, he said was tonight. This is coming three days after we were told that we were expecting twins.He was so busy looking through my pile of clothes as most of the clothes he has earlier picked did not fit due to my huge bump.“so what do you think of this?” he asked lifting a free-size chiffon gown with a smoky plinth at the waistline. I got the dress from Spain and never really got to wear it.“Well, it depends on where we are going” I said hoping for heaven's sake that he just say it instead of making me guess.I hate been kept in suspense.“You will see” he said, with that he helped
Nadia POVjust when you think you can't possibly hear anything more devastating about my ex-uncle, he surprises you with another one.Like the fuck!“He was sleeping with his daughter, he wasn't contented with his wife and all the whores out there, he chose to do the nasty with his blood, I have been underestimating his level of callousness,” I said angrily at Lorenzo after he practically pulled me back into our room the“You need to calm down, you have been stressing yourself a whole lot lately, and I am beginning to think that maybe you need to go stay with my mum," Lorenzo who has been standing and just staring at me said.“I'm going not going anywhere, I am staying right here to have this baby and when I do, I will be the one to put a bullet through that motherfucker brain," I said unable to control how angry I was fuck was that moment“No, what you need to do is go somewhere safe and
