En route to Massimo's island Ariana's pov~"This is a bad idea" Julius declared as he took a left at the next intersection. "We need to think this through Mateo, saving Serena right now is not the priority, getting the both of you out of Italy is!" he stated."No Julius, Ariana is right, we got Serena into this mess, she doesn't deserve it" Mateo said tapping his shoulder lightly. "She risked her freedom to find Ariana for us, we owe her this" he added. I nodded my head but I stayed quiet. All I could think about was Becky, what is going to happen now that Im in the picture! What happens to her or me when she finds out her fiance is already married? I refuse to be responsible for another woman's pain. "What happens now, Mateo?" I finally asked, he looked over to me with a puzzled expression but I knew he was trying to play dumb."I don't understand?""What happens with Becky, she's at home waiting for you to come back, waiting for her fiance to come back, now that I'm in the pi
Ariana’s pov~One of Mateo’s allies had come through for us, which shocked Mateo himself. Though Mateo was suspicious, he accepted the aid anyway, we didn't have a choice at this point. Federico got us a hotel in the town, no one was allowed on the island without permission from Massimo himself. We had to figure out a game plan, how do we get Serena out? “First, I'm going to make love to you again because we never know what will happen tomorrow I could die” Mateo started, I turned around to see a devious grin plastered perfectly on his roguish face. “I'm not in the mood” I replied, moving past him to where our new clothes hung. “I can't wear this, it's too tight,” I started pointing at the jeans. “How do you know? You haven't even tried them on” Mateo said before walking up to me. He grabbed me from behind and kissed the nape of my neck. “Mateo” I started pushing him away from me, “we just escaped sudden death, we are trying to get Serena out, I'm not in the mood” I replied.
Ariana's pov~ "That wasn't why I broke things off Emilio, you have always been a two-faced liar, and you were always competing with Mateo" I replied. Feeling intimidated by Alonzo's stare he backed off a bit. "Come on, I'm just saying hello, I'm not trying to hurt you or anything, call your dog off, cuz from the way he is hovering around you I say he is one of your father's dogs" he laughed. I couldn't believe it, still, the haughty ass hole he always was. Why am I always attracted to the toxic ones? I'm breaking that cycle. But I already did, I was already falling for the Nice guy I met in Malta. "Alonzo, give us a minute to start the car we are leaving for the hotel soon" I said, gesturing for him to go outside. Alonzo glared at him for a while before turning to give me a small nod and leaving the restaurant. "Look I'm sorry I walked out on you, but you were an uppity son of a bitch, I just didn't have the space for you anymore in my life" I retorted. My mind strolled to
Mateo's pov ~ I growled in frustration as I looked around in the crowd, just where was my wife? When did Ariana become so unruly? She never used to be this unpredictable. I find her roaming around my thoughts endlessly, driving me crazy with each passing second she's away. Where is she? What the hell is she doing? Did she come across another ex? My mind kept spinning on and on. I stood amid very happy women, it seemed a miracle had located them, they all grinned from ear to ear as the store manager filled their bags with different baby products. "She left? Really oh I wanted to thank her!" one woman started, stuffing the toy into her shopping bag. "I can't believe people still do charity, no one ever thinks about struggling mothers and families, I'm so thankful for this" the other chartered. "I heard she was even disappointed, according to her, it cost her too little" she mentioned, "500 thousand euros I think, that's little money to her" she added. And I immediately knew
Ariana's pov~ It is official! I'm Over Mateo and his bullshit. I got another hotel, and Alonzo saw to it. He has been so helpful in helping me on my quest. I got to the dock at about 7:52 am, and I sat inside the boat waiting for Mateo to come. I didn't know if Maria and Luna would show up, but they came a few minutes after eight pm. And of course, when Mateo arrived he didn't care if he wasted everyone's time for about 20 mins. "I had some personal errand to attend to" he started, I knew that was a lie and I didn't care enough to pick a fight with him. "Since we are all here, it's time to get a move on, once we are close to the old submarine station, you will all go down and wait for instructions on when to come out, now this is important. If they find out you are trying to get to the island undocumented, you are likely to get shot" he finally declared. This was starting to feel too dangerous and I started feeling anxious, for the sake of my child. "Ariana, I'll kill ever
Ariana's pov~There was another scuffle, and then a huge thud, the roof above us cracked a little. Luna shrieked in fright before Maria held her mouth, I wasn't afraid but worried. Deep down I knew Mateo wouldn't let them get to me, and I knew it was because im carrying his child. Soon we heard footsteps and we watched in horror, step after step as the man descended the stairs. Not knowing who was going to open the trapdoor.Soon they stopped above us, and as soon as the lip came open, the morning light blinded me, giving me a rough sketch of my husband, who was crouted low, his shirt badly torn off revealing some parts of his hairy chest. His body was soaked in sweat and scuffle and at that moment I wanted nothing but to rip the rest of his clothes off, clinging onto his body for dear life, and lick every bead of sweat, beg him to fuck me the way he did in the tunnels. "Are you okay Ariana? You can come out now" he said, panting over me as he reached in to pull me out. As he di
Mateo's pov~ I could be dead in a few hours, so I had to kiss her, to shut her up at least. Her face was blank, white as snow."Ariana I need you to stay out of this one" I said, pushing a lock of her hair out of the way."No Mateo, I'm not leaving you to face them alone, and that kiss doesn't mean shit to me," she replied.Ahhhh the nerve of this girl! She pushes me to imagine crazy things! It was too late to convince her, the dock was already in sight. "I pulled her toward the front to receive the officers. As we came to a halt at the dock the officers came on board. He looked around before settling in front of Mateo and me. "Who are you?" he inquired "Enrique, Patricio sent me" I replied, looking down. "Who is the girl?" He turned to look at me before scanning me."A stray Patricio picked up, she's helps clean the boat" I replied after much thought. She glanced at me before turning away in fright. "Patricio should have called ahead," he said. "Go back" I stood there not
Ariana's pov~"Here at the shelter, such thoughts are expunged by the teachings of our great benefactor, Senor Massimo!" Mother superior thundered. "You are an unmarried whore who couldn't keep her legs closed!" she added before pushing me towards the empty bed. I was instantly irritated, and I wanted to stuff her veil down her throat for even thinking of me in that light! "and while you are here I advise you to hold your devilish tongue! Women like you get sent to the sister homes and trust Me you don't want to find yourself there!" she yelled before pushing me down on the bed. I fell with a thud and I imagined Mateo snapping her neck just for the mere insolence of it. Something about this place was weird. Something was very weird with this shelter. First, it's in disguise as a convent why? A Convent with tight security? I need to find Serena and get her the hell out of this bastard's Island. I sat there quietly and waited for my mother superior to finish her lecture. As s
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
