FIONA’S POV~Slowly we moved through the long creepy stairs and we eventually got to a wide area of space with no other choice but to jump down.Enzo jumped first, I handed him my phone and he set it on the floor before opening his arms to catch me.“I don't think I can,” I said slowly, my voice croaking with anxiety.“Don't be a chicken, jump Fiona!” he scolded, I sighed and positioned myself to jump, I leapt but alas I misstepped and fell on him and we both tumbled on the ground.He laughed, “If this is what you want, you can at least say it”, I got up embarrassed but he pulled me back down, and turned me over.The light was dim and insects chirped all over the moldy tunnels but I could see the twinkle in his eyes.He blinked before smiling, his eyes roamed my chest as it beat out of place, he licked his lips, I looked down and I saw why.In the moment of action, my right breast had slipped out of my bralette to reveal a portion of my breast and some parts of my perky nipples.I gas
Fiona’s mission has ended, and so has her point of view, the story continues with Ariana and Mateo.ARIANA’S POV~“Sit still damn it!” Mateo roared and I pushed him away from my knee, he has been extra clingy since I got shot by Emiliano, still salty about the fact that he didn't know his brother was still alive.“If you are going to keep yelling this way then it's best you leave it alone, I can't handle being shot, pregnant and on top of that a soon-to-be ex-husband” I replied.He stopped and looked up at me. “I'm not going to say this anymore, we are not getting a divorce!” he roared at me and I slapped him.“Yes, we are! I'm sick of this! Until you tell me why you won't let me go I'm not safe with you! You don't own me, Mateo!” I exclaimed.Deep inside I was scared, It had been weeks and I hadn't heard from Fiona, could she be dead?Did I send her to her death? All I wanted was to be free from all of this chaos and now….She could be dead.I touched my belly lightly and rubbed my
MATEO’S POV~Enzo and I sat in the office as the tape played, I couldn't believe it, I'd been lied to!Silvio and I had been lied to everything my father said that day was indeed all bullshit.“He is Ariana’s half-brother?” I exclaimed in shock. “Yeah” Enzo nodded, “that's not all, listen to them talk”As the tape played I discovered someone else knew about it and that someone was Paul Assisi.“That’s why he is hell-bent on getting his hand on this tape, he is involved with my father in a deal gone bad, the prime minister’s daughter?” I turned and started pacing around the room anxiously, “and now his superiors are asking about it,” I remarked.Enzo nodded again, “he is trying to wipe the evidence, but if we take this to the higher-ups, way higher Don Rinaldi will go to prison, forever” Enzo smirked.I grinned at him before reaching for the bottle of cognac on my desk, “we’ve got him Enzo” I said, “finally”.“Someone else was after that tape, a woman” Enzo started, and my attention tu
ARIANA’S POV~The tears weren't drying up anytime soon, and I had already concluded that they were pregnancy hormones.Mateo needed clarification, as all his different methods to appease me were coming to no fruition.“How can I make these tears stop? It's been over an hour, baby doll,” he inquired before sitting beside me and taking my hand.“I don't know, they just refuse to stop” I wailed.“I'd have sliced off your head if you were someone else” he mentioned with a wry laugh.I glared at him, pretty pissed off for even suggesting crap like that.“I miss Fiona” I started before pushing his hand away.“She’s dead right?” he asked.His words took me aback and I couldn't respond because I didn't know for a fact that she was.But then again where is she?“Y..yeah” I stammered, masking the lie in my words.He gave me a suspicious look, I looked away from him before he eventually concurred.“I want to see Chiara” I started, Mateo gave me another glare.“I don't know if….”“With Estella,
ARIANA’S POV~“I think that baby you are carrying is mine” As the words left his lips, I could feel every existence I'd created around this baby shattering around me, like glass.I was too stunned to speak on this audacity, “excuse me?” “You heard me Ariana, this baby could be mine, did you stop to think about it?” he asked, before letting my hand go, he paced a few steps forward and then back to me.“Did you? What exactly happened to us? Because we had the best week of our lives, I asked you to be my girl. I was going to leave it all for you” he started.“I got called back home enzo, by my father” I replied to him, fighting back the tears as I looked away.“I was a virgin, how could this be your baby? Mateo was the first man I'd ever been with” I gasped, my thoughts spun out of control and I knew the answer to it.Cayenne…. It had always been her, taking over my life, this different side that no one can ever tame, a different person entirely.A sickness created in my childhood home,
MATEO’S POV~“Julius, are you okay? What the hell happened old man” I implored, I hastened my pace after seeing his injured arm.He got up and slumped back on the chair, “shit!” he cursed, and I walked to him.“what happened? You were on your way home last I saw you, you should be on vacation somewhere why are you getting shot at?” I yelled, deep worry resonating in every tone. “There are no holidays in our world Mateo, someone is not happy they are back with their husband, this is a message from Liana” he grunted in pain, before continuing.“We need to take her out, it would seem, she still has an arsenal somewhere” he raised his back and groaned in pain before reaching low again.“That arsenal is my father, Julius, Silvio is his son, everything is all making sense, but I still don't get it,” I said, I didn't have all my answers but something still didn't sit right with me.And that someone is Paul Asissi.“You were with my father up until his last day, tell me is there something I
ARIANA’S POV~“They took Estella away!” I exclaimed sharply, before turning to Enzo to back me up, “yeah, just now, they said they were going to run tests on her” he replied.“What?” Mateo questioned, he looked confused, “We just overheard her discussion with Emiliano, he is alive?” Enzo continued.Mateo gave him a suspicious look before taking my hand, “yes I just found out a few weeks ago, he did that to Ariana” he mentioned before pointing down at my wounded leg.“When I find him I will rip him apart limb from limb, he will regret the day I was born into his world” he finished.Enzo nodded confidently before giving me a quick look.“What is that?” Mateo asked, before standing in front of us, “What?” I inquired, hiding my face as he leaned in.“That look? I just saw it now, what the hell is going on with you two, am I getting a set-up somewhere, I can't put it past Enzo, the piece of shit plans the most bizarre ways to prank me, every year it gets worse” he said.I gulped, this woul
ARIANA’S POV~I took the test the very next day even though I told him it was just the regular checks I was able to convince Mateo to let me go to the doctor alone, much-needed space I said.Now the doctor has called, she sounded concerned and now im going back for the result, to know my fate.If im the mother of this baby or if it's Cayenne..It was all too overwhelming, I needed my friend, but she could be truly dead and I have no way of knowing.I miss her so much it aches, so I told the driver to pull up to our favourite spot, the ice cream shop her mom used to take us to when we were kids.I ordered the mint flavour, it was our favourite, and my baby was craving it.I sat in the corner, brooding over her loss, I looked up and memories of our time here all came flooding back.We had planned our whole lives together, planned to have kids at the same time, she was my biggest blessing and now I've put her in danger and she’s dead.Tears stung my eyes and I blinked them back, I placed
ARIANA’S POV~Mateo coming back has been a blessing, he left his life behind and he now lives with us on the island.But something kept bothering him, “Mateo what’s going on with you?” I asked handing him a cup of cocoa.Alessio came running in and he sat on his father’s knee, “papa ball” he requested.“Soon my boy” Mateo giggled excitedly,He finally told me everything, everything that weighed heavy in his heart, everything about his parent's death, to Becky’s revenge and what they were after.“He adopted me to find out if I had a key in my possession and I think it's the same key Fiona handed you the day of the shower” he concluded.“The key?”I hadn't thought about the key in so long, I'd kept it away, and it had bad memories attached to it.I got up and went in, it should be along my things.As I did I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, only it wasn't me.She grinned from ear to ear as she motioned for me to come closer, and I did.“Cayenne” I started.“We finally meet, did
MATEO'S POV~The last thing I remembered was a gunshot piercing me before I landed on the ground, I awoke on a bed, I blinked and I felt a wet towel going over my hot body.I tried to get up, “Mateo, stop you need to rest” she started, i opened my eyes.“Micola?” I called, she smiled and took my hand in hers, “yes it's me, you sustained a serious gun wound” she stated, I winced in pain, and I tried to find the source.“At this point, I might as well be studied” I joked as I sat up.I coughed and blood followed.“Your lungs were affected, the doctors said you would have to cough out the rest of the clumps when you wake up, are you okay?” she announced.I nodded, “I'll be fine” She helped me sit straight on the bed rest and put a glass of water in my hand.I gulped it down in one go and gave it back to her, “micola” I started, she dropped the cup and looked away.“I'm sorry about the way we ended things, I just… it's different now. With everything, with…”“I get it” she interrupted, “yo
ARIANA’S POV~Don Argento couldn't believe it, his son was before him, he ignored his wife and daughter, slowly he walked toward Silvio who welcomed him.“I'm afraid I can't do that, Silvio, but I should start by welcoming you back from the dead” I applauded his bravery, I didn't care if I was a one-man army right now.“That deal should never have happened,” he continued.“No deal Silvio, I'm not selling my wife to you, I hate to break it to you but there’s bad news my friend” Mateo stated.My mind was made up after last night, there was no hope that he would ever change.He is always going to remain a beast, and now Silvio is back, from the dead.My hunch was right after all, and from the look on my proud father’s face, I could tell he was in on this. “Mateo, im asking you nicely, I have you surrounded, you should not have touched what was mine, you knew it and you did it anyways” Silvio flared.Mateo laughed, “she was never yours and she never will” Mateo boasted.His haughtiness i
ARIANA’S POV~The night of the party finally arrived, micola had dropped her resignation that morning and an air of dread lingered around it.We never found Estella, somehow Emiliano had sneaked her out, along with my father’s written will.I shuddered under the weight, Scared to face the unknown.Im not going to let everything I've lived for go down the drain, because I was so distracted.I had to keep up the pretences with Ariana. The only ones who knew about it were the three of us.Three of u except Fiona... I have to find her before she tells someone else, I always knew she would turn on her in the end, she’s a woman after all.I wondered what happened, but that wasn't important right now.I headed upstairs, a box in my hand, to the room I once shared with Ariana, I opened the door and there she stood by the window.She rubbed her curved belly and I could her muttering to herself before she acknowledged her presence.A child I'd been looking forward to calling mine, my heir… all
MATEO’S POV~I saw micola on the way back to my office, I knew Julius had left earlier so I motioned for her to join me.As he closed the door to my office I pulled her to me and devoured her hungry lips with a kiss.She gasped for breath as she held on to me for balance, I let her go and started to take off my clothes.“I see Don Mateo is back” She grinned from ear to ear, her eyes looking sinister.“Take your clothes off” I growled, throwing my clothes into a corner, “oh now you want me?” she teased.“Take it off” I repeated, this time I walked towards her, then grabbed her, threw her against my desk and perked her ass up.I spanked her violently, just the way she liked it, then I dug my nails into her neck, I drew blood and she moaned in pleasure.“Yes this is the Mateo I've been craving” she moaned loudly.I ripped my belt off and soon my pants had dropped, I rammed my hard dick inside her, she was already wet from the violence that is her life.“Yes” she moaned as she sniffled in
ARIANA’S POV~“You shouldn't be here Enzo please leave” I pleaded, but he wouldn't leave, he walked up to me and soon his mouth was ravenously devouring mine.I pushed him off me and slapped him, “What the hell is wrong with you!” I exclaimed angrily.“Ariana, I can't stop thinking about you, never have, never will, and now you are carrying my baby, I just can't stay away from you cayenne..” he moaned kissing my hands.“Enzo you need to stop this, if Mateo finds out about this, he will kill us, he won't care if we once knew each other” my anxious voice gave me away as I shuddered from the thought of Mateo’s wrath. “we need to find a way to escape from here not this!” He groaned in frustration, “Mateo! Mateo! Mateo! Ariana, it's always about Mateo, what about us, what we had!” he exclaimed angrily.“It wasn't real, it was just a week! One week Enzo, it wasn't love!” I tried to make things clear to him but his incessant insisting that we were madly in love was starting to reach peak lu
MATEO’S POV~I should listen to the tape.But not until I prove to Ariana that I can be the man she wants me to be.“Is everything set?” I inquired looking around the beautifully decorated room, I smiled to myself.Proud of my accomplishment, today I will throw my wife a surprise baby shower.I sent out invitations to the people I could, but I couldn't get a hold of her stepmother and sister.The best I could do was Micola, and a few of her friends, Estella, and some maids.It's the thought that counts right?“Yes sir, all we have to do now is wait to surprise her” the maids giggled with glee.I spent no expense on the lavishness of this party.“She just pulled into the driveway sir” one of the guards reported, “good, places everyone!” I yelled and everyone hid.Micola was physically annoyed and she wouldn't hide, something was going on with her and Julius and she wouldn't tell me.I didnt bother to ask, soon the doors opened, and Ariana and Enzo stepped in, they were engaged in a hea
ENZO’S POV~Her lips parted to welcome me into her warmness. It was just like magic how Fiona suddenly appeared when I thought precisely of her. That moment we had in the tunnels, the image of Ariana flashed in my mind, and I couldn't stop thinking about her.Not when I thought she was back in Malta waiting for me.I pulled up her shirt, “what the hell! We are right in the hallway!” she yelled before pushing me off her.Then she slapped me hard across the face and I clenched my jaws. “what the hell do you think you are doing? Where the hell is the tape you stole you asshole!” she exclaimed angrily.I didnt care about any of that, I just wanted to devour her.As she complained about my lack of human compassion I noticed a nurse come out of an empty room.I grabbed Fiona and pulled her towards it, “Hey! Let go!” I opened the door and a nurse was inside folding the sheets.Two other people were in the room, they were in tears and it irritated me.“Everyone get the fuck out!” I thundered
Ariana’s pov~“Ariana, what the hell is going on here? Two babies? When did this happen? Who the hell are Donors A and B?” she questioned nonstop, and my mind was reeling.My world, everything I've come to know about myself is over.It's been Cayenne pregnant All this while, a sister I thought I made up in my head truly exists….I'd been admitted for observation, the doctor wouldn't let me leave and I begged her not to call Mateo.She was honoured to thank Fully,“It's a whole lot, Fiona, I met a guy before I came back to Italy,” I started.“The waiter?”“Yeah, he is the father of the baby,” I confessed.“You fucked him?” she exclaimed in shock.“I didn't, Cayenne did? How do I explain this to Mateo Fiona?” I shrieked, my hands sweating with anxiety.“Shit!” she cursed, “the last time he thought I had an affair he killed him, without a moment’s thought. I'm living with a total maniac” I continued, my voice shaky.“Mateo, he is not a kind man Fiona, he is crazy and obsessed with me, h
