Chapter 54OctaviaI pushed my box out of the plane and sighed when I saw Sofia and Ryan at the other side of the port.I smiled as I approached them only to be stopped as a pair of familiar faces blocked my view and my eyes widened.What were they doing here?"Allison? Benjamin?" I called out, staring at the people that were walking away from me, just in front as if they didn't know me."Allison!" It came out as a scream and they stilled."Hi." She waved, her smile faint and she stared at me."What the hell is wrong and why are you two here?" I asked."Didn't my brother tell you about us coming to stay with you Mrs Governess?" Benjamin asked, glaring at me.Seems he was angry about something.."Well I'm not the one who made you angry Stronzo. So just shove it down your ass." I glared right back at him. (asshole)I had been taking some few Italian classes from Allison and I knew many cussing words.Allison's eyes widened and she coughed before scratching her head."Don't tempt me prin
Chapter 55Octavia"So you're saying, he brings his whore home and then he yells at you for not giving her more than you did?" Sofia asked, raising a brow.I had just finished telling her about Bennett and everything that had gone down in Italy."I can't actually believe I'm listening to you and all these bullshits." She groaned."You're trying to tell me that Mr Bennett of the Stone Corporation is the Don...sorry, I mean Capo." "It's actually the same thing." I cut her off but she put her hand up."of the Italian Mafia." She completed and I nodded.It shocked me more than it does to you."Are you trying to tell me that, you were surrounded with guns, cocaine, bullets, missiles and everything dangerous when you were out of New York?" She asked again, this time with dilated eyes that made me regret why I had even told her about it."It's not like that. I wasn't surrounded with those things. it was kind of fun.' I said and she chuckled."Did you hear gun shots? Or did anything happen w
Chapter 56Octavia "No please, don't tell me he actually told her to shit in her hand and slap her face with it." I gasped, my eyes burning into the TV.If it was actually possible, the male lead would be dying cause of my glares right now.I bit my lips, shaking my head as I watched the video.Korean Romcom was beginning to annoy me.I frowned as I watched they other boys laughed at the girl. It was a school setting, the worst I had ever set my eyes on.."Stop staring at the screen that way, it's called a movie because they are all acting... you know." Sofia rambled. "They're own part." She said and I rolled my eyes."Then the director and the writer are so foolish." I said, shaking my head as I drank the whole milk on the glass.."You really came here to upset me, no?" Sofia glared at me, as she stood up and walked to the couch.I had come to visit Sofia in the company, although my schedule was packed..I had a little time to spare."Are you okay?" I asked, and she frowned."Why ar
Chapter 57OctaviaWhen we got to the second floor, where the shooting was being held, I frowned when I saw too many people.Too many."Thank you for coming." Allison sneaked up behind us."Hey Allison." I waved and she winked at me."Hi." "Where's your boyfriend?" I asked, winking and she blushed, before rolling her eyes.Wait a minute...I narrowed my eyes at her and she shook her head.Girl got bursted."Is Bennett here?" I asked, and she nodded, gesturing to the corner where he had taken a seat."Well..I have a piece of information for him." Sofia said and that moment, I dreaded if she would bring that up.There was no predicting Sofia. She could be the devil's bride if she wanted to be."Good day Mr Bennett."Bennett looked up, his brows knitted to a frown.He didn't like people talking to him and Sofia might be my friend but he...that was fucked."And what might this be about?" He asked, not bothered to respond to her greetings.Sofia huffed, chuckling as she pushed a strand of
Chapter 58Octavia"You're so stupid." Sofia smacked my arm for the umpteenth time."Leave me alone." I said, and she scoffed."Are you telling me that he just said two words. Two words and you kissed him and you two almost had sex? I trained you better Octavia." Sofia groaned."Says the one who had sèx when she went to cuss someone." I retorted."And besides we didn't even take off our clothes...by almost." I stopped. "I meant the drive of it was there.""It's called angry sex and no, it's not the same situation here." She said and I rolled my eyes."I can't actually believe you had sex with Williams. I keep recalling how you two would always wring each other's neck when you had the chance. The fact that you actually had sex....I mean the fuck! He kissed you, sucked the hell out of you and then fucked you...God have mercy." I scrunched my nose as if I had been there and recalling the scene."Stop it." Sofia whispered, her cheek already red like wine."Stop what?" I whispered back."I
Chapter 59OctaviaBennett showed me to my room and it would be an understatement to say that it was beautiful. It was breathtaking.I looked at the painting on the wall. "I'll...uhm, be in my room." He said,as he leaned on the doorway."Okay." I mumbled.He hesitated before getting up and leaving.Closing the door behind Bennett, I walked to the bed and slumped down on it.The room was huge. It could accommodate two people if demarcated.My belly growled. Damn! I was hungry.I pulled off my coat jacket and dropped it on the bed.I stepped out of the room and headed down the hallway where we had took before.When I came down the stairs. The sweet aroma of beef sauce and chicken dumplings filled the air.Was Bennett cooking? Could he cook?Well...all Italian men cooked.I followed the aroma and came in front of one of the most beautiful kitchen I'd ever set my eyes on.It was white in colour and had the beautiful cubicle for plates...one I'd always had my eyes to get.Bennett was st
Chapter 60OctaviaWhen I woke up the next morning...God help me! Cause my whole body felt sore.I was aching all over.I turned around, hoping to see Bennett but he wasn't there.I sat up, my eyes raking around but Bennett was no where to be found. I stood up, heading to the bathroom with all the pain.Had I been too fast to forgive Bennett? Did he leave me behind after pounding my ass into the mattress and having the best orgasms of his life? He had said so himself, right?Did he have an important meeting that he had to leave as soon as possible to see what was wrong?With Bennett anything could go wrong at anytime.I sighed and closed my eyes, opening the bathroom door..I walked to the bathroom and there was a sticker on the wall..'The water has been heated and it will help for the soreness. Bath and come downstairs." It read.A smile touched my lips. Bennett was trying.I could recall his words last night..."I'm not so good at this... I'm not so good at relationship Octavia. B
Chapter 61Octavia"Don't tell me that's not convincing enough Bennett, I tried." I said, as I rounded the car and got into the passenger seat.Bennett started the car and pressed a button in the car's steering and the gate opened."Show Off." I rolled my eyes and he chuckled."It isn't show off Miss Mondragon. I'm only making life a little easier." "Don't you have guards?"For a Mafia man, there was no security team outside."They'll be here today. I told them to take the day off yesterday. It's a good thing I did...cause you yelled a lot than expected last night." Heat rushed to my cheek and I huffed.I didn't even have anything to retort him with."You've got anything to say to me Miss?" I glared at him."No." My scowl grew.Bennett's hand reached out to mind and he gripped it between his and raised it up to place a kiss.That small gesture made me smile."Is that a smile I see?""No." "So easy to tame." He clicked his tongue and I glared again."mia amore." Bennett whispered as
SIX MONTHS LATEROctaviaI groaned as I bent to pick something from the ground but couldn't reach it.My bump wasn't that big but it was enough to tell me to stand, to sit and relax.I sighed, heaving a deep breath as I struggled to pick my new fluffy rabbit toy Bennett had gotten for me.Well...Long story cut short, Bennett and I had gotten married after the first month of knowing about our little pipsqueak.Mom was happy. Grandpa was happy and although my father and my stepbrothers and sisters weren't smiling..they came.Even if they didn't...fuck them!They didn't know about my husband being the leader of the Italian Mafia. One word from me and they'd be eradicated from the face of the Earth."Baby." Bennett's hand snaked around my waist as he rubbed my belly."Hey." I mumbled and turned around to hug him but was stopped by my bump.He chuckled and I pouted and turned around."Three months left and we'll be holding our little pigeon on our hands." He said, and kissed my cheek."Wel
Chapter 75OctaviaBennett wrapped his arms around me, kissing my hair as I watched the burning car.He would have changed. He could have. He had every reason to, but no....he wanted to die."I've got you, baby. Fuck! I've got you." Bennett kept singing to my ears as he picked me up and took me to his car.I blinked back the tears and shook my head."What's wrong?" He asked."That guy..." I choked. "That guy wasn't bad... He's just sick in the head and his own father uses that to his advantage." I said.Bennett sighed."That was why I was willing to let him live." He said."I'm sorry you got to see something like this.""He talked about the bane. About your father... about His Father telling yours to jump down. It was all for the business. He wasn't a bad guy." I cleaned my eyes again, feeling a little sting in my eyes."Stop crying, please." He pulled me to himself and began to stroke my hair."Thank you for coming for me." I mumbled."There's no need to thank me about that, baby. Wh
Chapter 74Octavia"Cazzo! What the actual fuck?!" Matteo hissed, grabbing my arm and pulling me to my feet."Guess it's time to leave, baby." He whispered, and tuned to Bennett and smiled."Let her go Matteo and I promise to keep you alive." Bennett said, more like a groan."Keep me? You have guts coming out to a place like this and letting her show up as well.. we've been watching her. The love of your life, no?" He Chuckled, and so did they men beside him."Bennett..." I whispered."You're outnumbered, so you better be careful." Matteo said again.He was right for that one.They were five and Bennett was just alone.He was alone and he was making threats?"She's so delicate..oh my God!" Matteo exclaimed and grabbed my chin."Is that a bruise I see? It's not just one...Fuck! a body of a model." He laughed.I looked over at Bennett. A bone ticked in his jaw and his grip tightened on the gun in his hand."How does it feel when you fuck her Bennett? Huh?" He chuckled. "Come on, tell me
Chapter 73OctaviaI strode over to Bennett who had his hand tucked into his trouser pocket. He was wearing a black booraldo suit and a black tie.His hair was well arranged, his perfect well shaped jaw made it more sexy..as he ran a finger down his chin.... making me have a clean view of his beautiful Rolex watch.I stood in front of him but Bennett said nothing. "Why are you here Mr Stone?""The party was held for models and businessmen....and that includes me.""So you didn't come here today cause you're a Mafia man?" I asked, a smile forming on my face."And you're not here today cause you're a businesswoman? Quit the acting miss Stiles, it doesn't suit you." He said.I chuckled. I didn't expect him to play along."Ha." I shook my head."Why are you frowning? Got ditched?'"Watching my girl let another man kiss her on the cheek, God knows how I had to restrain myself from going over there and tearing that shit apart.""Don't do that, he was my manager before....Miss Chen." I said
Chapter 72The Grand finale was coming to and end.This was the end of being a model.As much as I loved being a model, it was time I focused on my company."Are you wiping your face, clean?" "No.""Good." Calista walked closer to me, a towel wrapped on her head."It's a good thing you're leaving the modeling industry.""Oh please.." I rolled my eyes, knowing what we were about to talk about."It's a good thing....really." She shrugged, as she knelt down in front to me and began to eyeshadow my eye lid again."Please..not too much, I have to look like my normal self. They'll think I'm doing too much." I mumbled."Or you don't just want Bennett to ruin your makeover when he sees how stunning you are... Don't worry, I'll put in an extra kit in your bag." She chuckled. "I'm going too, though. So you don't have to worry about a single thing." She smiled and I rolled my eyes.They were hosting a party for all models and I would take this time to tell everyone about my stepping down."You'
Thank you beautiful people for 1000+ followers.I'm so grateful!! And for that....another chapter is loading.*Kisses*Chapter 71Octavia"In as much as I would love to say it the way I badly want to, the Raven's are making things hard for Basino and it has to end." I watched Bennett and Jace talk, not meaning to eavesdrop on them.They were just talking so loud."The man has some serious problems going on in his fucked up life, had to mentally prepare for him. They called him a dementia patient." Jace said, as they watched someone on the laptop.Who were they talking about?Well...I was in still in Bennett's penthouse and the sun was shining brightly. I was typing down something in my laptop."He comes to this very spot every day at around 2:30pm. He has guards stationed everywhere and I think he knows he's about to die soon. Man's a heartless dick!" He said again.Bennett said nothing, they whole time. His eyes flickering to me and then the laptop as if he knew I was listening to th
Chapter 70OctaviaEvery went silent for a moment and then the gate was pulled open.My eyes widened and I didn't even know when my feet walked on there own, till I was hugging him so tight.Bennett wrapped his arms around me, hugging me so tight.And then he let go of me."You could have called me!" Bennett yelled at the top of his voice."I did." I said, feeling my throat tightened. "But you didn't pick up." I said.He groaned, turning around to punch the wall.Fuck! That would hurt."Not that line Octavia, my other line. How could you call a line that has not been working for months!" I was scared to the bone, so without looking I had called the number Bennett was using when I had began working as a model for his company."Can you stop yelling already?""You don't know what would have happened if they had gotten you. Fuck! I should have been here." He groaned again, punching the wall."Bennett!" I half yelled, grabbing his hand as he made to punch the wall again.The red dark eyes
Chapter 69Octavia"Are you sure that Van isn't following us?" Calista asked, again as we took another road.It was but I wasn't going to tell her that.Scared isn't what was going to keep us safe now.Fear surged through my veins."I don't think so." I said. "They are thousands of cars on this road Calista, why would they follow us?" I asked and she nodded with a sigh."Yes, you're right. Why would the follow us?" They were following us. The last time I had encounter such was when Bennett and I had gone to his penthouse that was outside the city for safety.Bennett wasn't here right now and I didn't know what to do.There was no way I'd be driving to the mansion, that would take them directly to my home."Why are you speeding like this? And why the heck are they speeding too?!" Calista yelled at the top of her voice as I sped the car, heading straight to where Bennett had taken me that time."Calista... I'm not going to lie to you." I began. There was no need lying to her when the t
Chapter 68OctaviaThe rest of the week was crazy has hell, I had been too engulfed into work and doing nothing apart from that. Even Bennett was busy.After that night he had spent with me, they next morning, he left for Italy."You're going to die, if you don't stop that and eat, even a little can go a long way Octavia." Calista mumbled, going from the sofa to the chair and back to o the sofa."Can you stop moving, you're spinning me." I said, pausing my finger on the letter A and scrunching my nose out of disgust as she ate her macaroni grill fish.It smelled so bad."And what kind of fish was used to make that?" I asked."Fish that stink but taste so nice...." She said, and shrugged before adding "Obviously.""Wow." I smiled at her and she smiled back, not before throwing another piece of the fish into her mouth."Remember me to tell Dali to get something to clear the air. I don't think the air conditioner can wave this thing off." I said.Calista glared at me, before dropping th
