It's been two weeks since dinner with Sin's family and also two weeks since being in Italy. It was fun. The next day, after dinner, Sin toured me around the city. showing me his favorite place and his school.We went to different restaurants and took a lot of pictures.Serena and I talked almost all the time on the phone, and she and I have gotten really close during these past weeks. She had even come to visit four days ago but didn't stay long, saying she was on her way out and dropping by to see how Sin and I were. We also made a promise to see each other later in the week.I have been doing random stuff in the house since I'm not allowed to leave without security, not after what happened in New York. On the other hand, Sin, as usual, has always been busy; when he is home, he spends most of his time in his office and the rest with me.Right now I am in the kitchen, making lunch for Sin and me. When I walked in and told Sarah, she bluntly refused, saying Sin wasn't going to like it
"I'm so bored," I complained to Mateo as he walked past the living room.He was getting better, though Sin refused to let him do anything heavy that could open his stitches, and that was after I grilled him not to let Mateo do anything. So right now, Mateo is stuck in the house with me. Samantha followed Luca and Sin out for business, while Zoey, as always, was AWOL, which brings me to now. I had nothing to do and wasn't in the mood to watch or read anything."Sin said you could use the pool." Mateo replied. Oh yeah, the pool. I totally forgot that there was a pool in the house, but I guess it wasn't a bad idea. I could swim around and relax."That's not a bad idea." I ran upstairs to put on my bikini and a loose dress and apply sunscreen to my body. I also grabbed a towel before running back downstairs. I stepped outside to the outdoor pool,I walked towards the water, throwing my towel on the seat. I took off my dress, revealing my bikini, and jumped into the water, diving down.The
It had been two days, and Sin wasn't back yet; he left the day after Luna came for some work outside but hadn't been back, nor had Luca. Sin, no matter how busy he was, always came back home to me, even if he had to stay out late to take care of business. I tried calling Luca and Sin, but it just went straight to their voicemail. I was really getting worried.Samantha kept telling me that Sin was capable of taking care of himself and that he was probably busy. But that did nothing to stop the ball of nerves in my throat as fear gripped my heart at the thought of something bad happening to him. I checked the time on the alarm clock beside the bed to see it was 9:30 p.m., but I couldn't go to sleep due to anxiety and worry. I picked up my phone to call Sin and Luca again, but it went to their voicemail like it had for the past two days.I didn't know how long I sat on the bed, staring into nothingness, hoping for him to come back home. I didn't realize I fell asleep waiting for him unti
It was already the next day, and I was in the bedroom, nervously twirling my fingers like a madwoman. Sin was in his office, and even when I asked him to rest and take the day off, he refused. He said the meeting was important and could not be shifted. So i asked him to let the doctor be there with them, and that was hours ago. It was already getting close to afternoon, and they were still in there.I decided to check up on him myself; if it's just a little glance to see if he's okay, that's enough for me. I went downstairs towards his office and gave a light knock on the door. Many thoughts swirled around my head.I didn't know when the door was opened and jumped in shock when I heard a deep voice say, "Come in."Sticking my head in first. I saw the number of men that were there; some I was familiar with, and some I had no idea who they were. I was about to close the door, not having the confidence to step inside the room, when Sin's raspy voice broke the silence."Come here, bambina
When Sin was a good distance away, Samantha and I let out a squeal, jumping and clapping hands with each other."Okay, I will go tell Zoey while you get ready." She suggested it, then ran up the stairs to Zoey's room.I went up to the room to change into comfortable blue jeans with an off-shoulder black top. We got into the car with Mateo at the front and Samantha, Zoey, and I sitting at the back. Four cars followed us—two in front of us and two behind us. When we got to the mall, we moved to different stores as we tried on different clothes, shoes, bags, and other things.Right now, I am sitting on the sofa while Zoey and Samantha tried on different dresses; I had already gotten the things I needed, but the other girls couldn't decide on what they wanted.I had also gotten a new thong, and I couldn't wait to show it to Sin. I smiled when I imagined his face and reaction when he saw the sets of thongs. I smiled, and I saw someone in the corner of my eye who looked to have been followi
"Come in," I said when I heard a knock on the door. I was sitting on the bed watching Netflix on TV, my attention turns to the door when I hear it creaks open slowly."I come bearing food." Samantha said, raising the tray of food up. "breakfast."I let out a laugh. I could have easily gone down for breakfast, but I appreciated her gesture. I stood up from the bed and went to sit on the couch since there was a table at the center of it. Samantha walked towards me, placing the tray on the table, and then took a seat beside me."I hope you are hungry," she says as I stare at the large dish of pancakes and sausage on the side."I would have gone down for breakfast; you didn't have to stress yourself." I say to her:"It's nothing; I don't want to eat in the kitchen or the dining room or eat alone in my room. So, in a way, I'm using you to keep me company." She replied with a grin on her face.I breathe in the wonderful aroma of the meal, and my mouth is salivating. I looked at the other si
The timer rang, alerting my trembling body as I forced myself to stand up from the toilet seat. I reached out to the counter and grabbed the test stick with my sweaty palms, which were now sweatier than before."Please, please, please, please." I murmured softly to myself at this very moment as I turned the sticks around to see the results."Oh my God!" I whispered as I felt the hotness in my eyes grow with every second that passed, staring at the test.Two lines!.I was pregnant. I didn't know what to feel—should I be happy, sad, or even worried? I couldn't move; my hand subconsciously raised to grab my stomach. I was pregnant. I thought again.Was I ready to have a child, especially right now with the kind of business Sin was into? Was it right to bring a child into a world like this? I pondered.I heard the sound of someone knocking repeatedly on the bathroom door and knew it was Samantha since she was the only one here with me."Mani, is everything alright in there? What was the r
I woke up the next morning with Sin asleep beside me, one hand wrapped around my waist while the other had my head resting on it. I turned to face him, and he looked so peaceful and calm.I slowly traced the tattoos on his arms while he slept like a baby. Looking at him, it feels like I have known him for a lifetime, when in reality it's just a few months. I still haven't told him about the baby; even with all Samantha's pep talks, I was still scared to tell him because I wasn't sure what his reaction might be.Suddenly his eyes started fluttering open, and he had a smile on his face when he opened his eyes fully to see me staring at him."Good morning, Bambina," he said in his deep, sexy morning voice."Good morning," I say, leaning in so that his lips can claim mine.The kiss started off slow and steady until it became feverish, and our tongues fought for dominance, but of course Sin won. I pulled away, trailing a kiss slowly down his exposed chest to his stomach. I pulled his boxer
Samantha and AlexanderI was feeling devastated, and I couldn't help but blame myself for what had happened to Mani. If only I had not gone out this morning, if only I had kept to my routine and brought her meal up to her room like I usually did these past few days, then she wouldn’t have gotten kidnapped. especially not when she was pregnant.No..None of this would have happened if only I had given her the chance to explain when she first pleaded with me. Maybe then we would have figured out who was betraying us, and now we had to work faster at finding her before something bad happened.Sighing, I swing my legs, which were deep inside the pool water, while wiping the tears from my face. I couldn’t remember the last time I had cried this much. Was it those times when I struggled to stay alive as my father carried on with his assault, or the time he...Shaking the thought off my head, I try not to think about the past, knowing it would bring nothing but pain and nightmares."You have
Athena And LorenzoI could be doing anything with the rest of my day, probably watching Netflix and chilling, if I was up for a bit of fun, I could always go clubbing. But that wasn’t the case tonight; instead, I was being prepped for a ball I wished not to attend.Only if there was a way to escape having to attend and watch those pretentious fuckers pretend to get along with each other."Do you really need me there?" I asked, letting out yet another sigh."Of course I do," Bella, my childhood best friend, responded, giving me a pleading look. "I can’t do this by myself; it's torture having to go there and pretend to care. I need you there, Athena.""Why don’t you just skip this year's ball? I’m sure your parents won't mind."Bella sighed exasperatedly. "I wish I could, but my dad is too stubborn to listen to reasons, he is running for a political position and wishes I would accompany him since my brother can’t attend this year. I'm really hating the fact that he had to go on a busine
Luca and StephanieI gulped down my drink and set the glass back on the table. I took a deep breath and then raised my hand to signal the bartender."Another shot," I said.He frowned. "I believe you have had way too much for the night, don’t you think so?"I shook my head quickly, but stopped when it made me feel a bit dizzy."No...pe, another shot."I thought it was wonderful that he continued to display care, but after I patiently waited, he simply groaned and went to get my drink.In the end, his worry wasn't going to help me much. I also knew how to control my alcohol intake while always being the good girl. I was a little tipsy, but not at all intoxicated.After a while, I was certain I had had a little too much to drink, but I still wasn't intoxicated enough.I need to head back to my home; now that Mani is touring the world, the apartment we shared for nearly five years feels empty.It’s been three months since she left, but I still haven’t found a roommate I feel comfortable
Seven years have passed since I got married to Sin and had the twins. My caring, loving husband and our two lovely children make up my existence, yet I still couldn't believe it.I grinned when I thought of the girls. Alexander and Samantha have been married for five years, and a year after their wedding, Giulia, a beautiful baby girl, was born to the couple. Emma, their youngest child, was born two years ago.Luca and Stephanie recently got married, and they are currently on their honeymoon. She was enjoying herself to the fullest. Luca had brought her to Bora Bora, and she had sent a ton of pictures. You can only imagine my delight when she told me that Luca had proposed to her four months prior.While Athena got married to Lorenzo a year before Samantha and Alexander. They have three beautiful boys and a girl. I'm sure you are wondering how this happened.When Sin and Alexander found out about their relationship, it was chaotic. They argue all the time; Sin and Alexander even went
We had woken up ages ago, and did a little bit of morning exercise. If you get what I mean. Right now, we were sitting outside. Well, Sin was sitting on a chair with me on his lap. We were both enjoying the wonderful view of the ocean as well as the fill of the warm air against our skin. Sin kissed my shoulder, bringing my attention to him. He held my head, pulling me to his never ending kisses. I could never get tired of this. He pulled away, smirking at my red stained face."I wonder how the babies are, I miss them already." I say, resting my head on his shoulder."Don't worry about them, they are safe. I know my mom and your aunt will take good care of them. My mom adores her grandchildren a lot, same as your aunt." Sin runs my back softly."I know, but still" Tears formed around my eyes and I blinked a few times, trying to stop them from falling down."Amore, it's only for three weeks then you can see them again. We don't know when we will ever get the chance to spend time alone
"I don't get why you refuse to tell me where we are going. I feel like we have been walking for hours. " i heard Sin chuckled softly, as he kept on leading me to heaven knows where. My eyes were blindfolded, making it hard to know where we were" patient amore. Besides, it's only been three minutes since we got out of the car. "I scoffed." Yeah, but I have been blindfolded throughout the ride.""so impatient, amore. Few more steps Mrs. Violenta."I grinned, liking the fact we were officially married.I squealed when I felt him lift me up bridal style, with the warm weather surrounding me. I felt giddy and couldn't wait for him to take off the blindfold.I felt my feet touch a wooden floor and the cloth wrapped around my eyes slowly coming loose. I gasp at the view of the beach in front, watching the waves move the water. Though it was dark, the moonlight shone on the water, enhancing it beauty and making it more enchanting.It was fucking gorgeous."Welcome to Maldives" Sin says, a s
Today was the day of the wedding. I was finally getting married to Sin. It feels so surreal, like I can't believe it. I was a nervous wreck, and there was nothing I could do to ease my nerves. This was a happy occasion, but at the same time I felt scared. I couldn't wait to call him my husband, and that brought a smile to my face. Right now I was sitting on the bed with Aurelia in my hands, feeding her while I watched her silently. I had already fed Marcello and given him to Sin; he wanted Marcello to dress up with the men.It's been two months and three days since I gave birth to them, and I couldn't be happier looking down at my beautiful baby girl; her blue eyes sparkle just like mine. Her features were like Sin's; she had his long lashes and brows. I knew she was going to grow up into a beautiful girl. I noticed that she was done, so I stood up from the bed, trying to burp her before putting her down on the bed.The door opened, and Samantha, Stephanie, and Athena walked in. "It's
At exactly 9:55 Am and 10:00 Am, Sin and I's baby boy and girl were born. How did l go a full nine months without the doctor noticing I was carrying two babies instead of one.They were beautiful.I was wheeled back to the room while the babies were taken to be cleaned. The rest of the family had gone home earlier to get freshened up, they had no clue yet and I told the doctor not to tell them. I had asked my aunt and Sin to go home and freshen up as well, after a lot of persuasion my aunt agreed to go, wish I could say the same about Sin.This man was filled with all kinds of stubbornness.I heard a soft knock at the door, it opened slowly and I saw Serena, Samantha, Stephanie and Alexander walk in first followed by Athena, Amelia and Carson."Hey. " Serena said in a hushed tone."Where is the baby? " Stephanie asked.Before Sin and I could answer, the door pulled open and a nurse walked in with one baby in her arms. She walked towards me, placing the baby in my hands. I looked down
They all froze for a second till a felt pain in my stomach and the next thing I knew I was yelling out to them, mostly Sin."Don't just freaking sit there, do something".That seemed to have woken them, and everybody stood up from their seat rushing to heaven knows where. Sin was by my side, helping me up from my seat."It's going to be okay Mani, remain calm. How far apart are your contractions." Amelia asked."I'm not sure, but I think 15 minutes apart. " She makes a sound agreeing with me."We need to get her to the hospital so that way we can have more accurate readings" I nod. I took little steps with Sin holding onto my hand."we need to get everything you need, I will text Mateo to bring them to the hospital. " He gave my hand to his mom, bringing out his phone. He typed feverously on his phone.I felt a hand on my chin, making me look away from Sin. It was Serena, she had a smile on her face which made me relax a little bit."follow my lead Mani. " she instructed and nodded. "
