ARSENIO'S POVAs soon as Clara said she didn't remember anything, I knew almost immediately that she was lying.I had no idea what her Mother told her but I had to act very fast and so after sorting out the discharge papers, I left the hospital back to the safe house where I kept Clara's alleged Father, Rafeal.“Are you here to let me go??” He asked as he glared at me.“On the contrary, I am here to offer you a deal.” I said.“A deal with the devil?? No thanks, I'll pass.” He said.“You don't have a choice but to do what I am about to ask and if you refuse, I know where your wife and kids live and I won't spare any of them.” I threatened.“What sort of deal is this???!!!”“A deal where you have no choice but to do as I have asked if you want your wife and kids to still remain alive.”“What is it???”“Clara's Mother has found Clara and I don't know what she told her about me but I noticed Clara's behavior has changed and she even lied to me pretending she had amnesia.”“Didn't I tell y
CLARA'S POV“Your Mother is not actually my ex wife but my biological older sister.” I got lost for a few seconds and when the words finally settled inside my head, I bursted into laughter like a maniac.“You know, I've heard a whole lot of bullshit since I left your house but this crowns it all.” I said.There was no way I was going to believe that the man whom I called Father for so many years was actually my uncle.“I know it sounds very weird but you just have to believe me Clara.”“I should believe that you are my uncle?? Oh please.”Arsenio on the other hand had a blank and unreadable expression on his face.“Your Mother Tiziana is my sister and she's older than me by just a few years…I was a bastard child of my Father and so no one inside and outside the family knew about it except our parents...the Nivera Family was a strict and prestigious family and we weren't allowed any freedom within or outside the house…while we were younger, your Mother wanted to explore the world and
CLARA'S POV“Ohhh, your wish is my command, baby girl.” Arsenio said.He cupped my face in his hands as he kissed me on my lips softy.The kiss felt so different and it was like our emotions were being poured into it.He sucked my lower lips as I involuntarily let out a moan while I closed my eyes and savored every bit of the kiss.After kissing me for a while, Arsenio detached his lips from mine and gazed intensely at me.“I won't be gentle with you today.” He said in almost a whisper.I nodded my head in approval as Arsenio slowly undressed me, leaving me in just my bra and panties.WARNING (mature content)Even though I knew he had seen me naked before, I still felt shy whenever he undressed me.“Can I undress you???” I asked.“Sure, baby girl.”I smiled as I carefully unbuttoned his shirt as I let it drop to the ground.I slowly traced my hands in Arsenio's chiseled abs as I bit my lips.After removing his shirt, I knelt down in front of him and unbuttoned his pants and also pulle
WRITER'S POV“Father, Father, look what I caught.” The little boy said as he stretched his hand and showed his Father the big spider he caught.“Oh my goodness!!! That's a dangerous spider.” The boy's Mother exclaimed loudly.Before the little boy could let go of the spider in his hand, it already stung him.“Ouch!!!!” The boy hissed as he looked at his hand.“Honey, let's take him to the hospital!!! He got stung by the spider!!” The little boy's Mother said with a worried look on his face.“No one is taking anybody to the hospital…he caught the spider with his own two hands and got stung and so, he would bear the consequences of his actions.” The boy's Father declared unapologetically.“Please I beg of you, if it doesn't get treated, it could get infected and he would die.”“He is a big boy and can handle a little pain.” The boy's Father said as he stood up and walked away.Two days passed by slowly and the little boy's condition grew worse.His hand became swollen and his fever so h
CLARA'S POV“Clara??!!!” Ma'am Irene called.“Yes ma'am, I am coming!!!” I yelled as I let go of what I was doing in the living room and went into the kitchen.“Please help me flip that pie over so it won't get burnt.” She said.“Okay ma'am.” I said.Ma'am Irene was busy in the kitchen making some pie and Italian sauce while I was in the living room cleaning it.It's been two days since Arsenio's disagreement on not ever wanting a child and he had successfully avoided me like a plague in two days.He is barely seen around the house and when he gets back home and sees me, he doesn't spare me any glance.He is currently missing from the house again and for some reasons, I was not happy about it.“Ma'am Irene, can I ask a question??” “Of course Clara, go ahead.”“What was Sir's Father like??? Were you opportuned to see him??? and also, why does he have an intense hatred for his Mother and why did she abandon him??”I knew I wasn't the smartest but I wasn't dumb enough to know that somet
CLARA'S POVI was both shocked and dumbfounded to see Arsenio's Mother standing in the kitchen with us.“Please, I didn't come here for trouble….I came because I need help in reconciling with my son Arsenio.” “You should have thought about that before you abandoned him in the first place, Adaline!!!! Please leave from here because if Arsenio should return home to see you, all hell would break loose.” Ma'am Irene said.“I know exactly what my son is capable of doing Irene,you don't need to lecture me and as I said, I came here because I need the help from you and Clara to reconcile with Arsenio.” “I am sorry but there is no help for you here…if you want to reconcile with your son, think hard about ways to do it and leave Clara and I out of your sick games.” I watched quietly as both ma'am Irene and Arsenio's Mother exchanged words and I could sense the frustration from them.“Please let's not get into any argument, I beg of you…. ma'am Adaline, if what I have heard is indeed true, t
ARSENIO'S POVI had some business to take care of with Sergio but I forgot an important document back at home and so I decided to go back to get it.As for Clara, I avoided her after our last conversation because I made a promise to myself that I would never have a child.I didn't want to bring anyone into this world who would suffer the same fate as I did and so it was best to remain childless.As soon as I got back home, I was about to climb the stairs to my room when I heard a familiar voice coming from the kitchen.I didn't want to believe that the witch was here amidst my warnings and so I headed to the kitchen but stopped in my tracks when she said something about her not abandoning me as a child.At first, I didn't want to hear the bullshit she was going to spill but I decided to wait behind the kitchen door and hear her out before taking any necessary actions.After she narrated her story from the beginning to the end, I stood there dumbfounded as my blood boiled inside of me.
CLARA’S POVAfter Arsenio stormed back into his room as soon as his Mother left, I felt completely shattered.It was at that moment I realized that just when you think your story is bad, you would find out someone else's is worse.“Go, I'll be with you shortly…if possible try to cheer him up.”ma'am Irene said.“Okay ma'am.” I said as I headed towards Arsenio's room.As soon as I got closer, I suddenly heard some shattering sounds coming from his room.I increased the pace of my movement as I rushed over to the door and as soon as I twisted the doorknob, I realized he locked the door from within.“Arsenio, please open the door.” I said as I heard more shattering sounds.I kept on banging and screaming Arsenio's name in fear because I had no idea what was going on inside his room.It got to a point where I had to inform ma'am Irene but nothing changed as Arsenio refused to open the door.A whole day went by so quickly and Arsenio didn't respond to me or ma'am Irene.She called him on hi
CLARA’S POV“Who the fuck did this to you???!!!!!” Arsenio asked.I looked up at him and could see the rage in his eyes while I tried retracting back my hand.“It’s nothing.” I said.“Don’t fucking play with me Clara!! Who the fuck did this to you?? Was it me???” he asked.“No, it wasn’t you Arsenio and I already told you before that it’s nothing…I mistakenly hit it somewhere when I went out earlier and hence the reason it hurts.”“Do you take me for a fool Clara??” Arsenio asked.I knew deep down Arsenio was definitely not going to accept my fake cooked up story of hurting myself and if I told him it was Alonzo who did it, I had no idea how he would react.I instantly kept mute as I avoided Arsenio’s gaze.“I just asked you a question Clara, answer me.”“What question???” I asked.“Clara!!!!” Arsenio yelled.“What??? I said I hurt myself….why don’t you believe me??”“This doesn't look like a bruise one gets when one hurts him or herself….someone did this to you and you better start
CLARA'S POV“Oh goodness!!!!” I exclaimed in shock.“What's the matter dear??” Ma'am Irene asked as she chuckled softly.“I knew that you were messing with me ma'am.” I said as I began to chuckle too.Ma'am Irene slapping Arsenio had to be the most unrealistic thing I've ever heard and so I assumed she was trying to mess with me by saying that.“Messing with you??? I am not dear.. whatever you heard me just say is the truth.”The smile on my face instantly dropped.“Wait, you are serious ma'am??? You slapped Arsenio??!!”“Yes.”“I don't understand…what exactly happened?? What did he say to you???”Ma'am Irene was never one to act irrationally and that is one quality I knew and loved about her from the moment I knew her and so slapping Arsenio had to come from a place of deep trigger.“Do not concern yourself with that Clara.” She said.“No ma'am….I have to concern myself with it because I know deep down that he said something that hurt you and hence the reason you reacted that way but
CLARA’S POVAt first I was engrossed by the gentleness of his kiss and I had no idea when I kissed him back but then it suddenly occurred to me that I was kissing someone who I felt nothing at all for and that consciousness made me suddenly detach my lips from his.“What’s the matter??” he asked as he had a confused look on his face.“Look, you are a really nice person and twice that I’ve gone out with you, you have made me so happy and have been the most amazing person to me but I don’t want to lead you on because I have feelings for another.” I said.“For Arsenio right??” I bowed my head as I couldn’t say anything.“Does Arsenio treat you right???” he asked.“It doesn’t matter if he does….I know he would change if not now, then later and I am going to help him change.” I said.“Arsenio can never change Clara….why don’t you give me a chance to love you and show you how much I adore you?? I would never hurt you Clara.”“I know Alonzo, trust me but my feelings for Arsenio aren’t weak
CLARA’S POV“Clara, did you see exactly what I was talking to you about??” Ma’am Irene asked as Arsenio left the kitchen with Monalisa.“I don’t know who gave her the audacity to speak to you in such a manner Ma’am.” I said.“It’s always been like that dear…I don’t even mind that anymore…what I am more concerned about is your feelings for Arsenio and how he treats you or will be treating you if you decide to waste your time on him.”“Honestly ma’am, when he asked me to stay away from his room earlier on, I didn’t and what I saw really broke my heart…of all the women in the world and in Italy for Arsenio to have sex with, he chose his ex wife and one he hated the most.”“I am not happy about that too dear and I am definitely not trying to justify his behavior but I am convinced there is a reason behind him doing that.”“I don't even care about that ma’am…I really want to leave this house even if it’s for a while and clear my head but I know Arsenio will never allow it.”“Do you have an
ARSENIO'S POV“What did you just say??”“She went out on a date, Arsenio.” I suddenly burst into laughter.“What's funny??” Irene asked.“Look Irene I know that sometimes you get into the mood of cracking jokes with me but this one is definitely not funny….Clara????!!!!!!” I yelled.“The only one laughing was you Arsenio, I didn't laugh and so, that should tell you that I wasn't joking….Clara went on a date.”“With whose fucking permission???!!!!!”“Mine….and the last time I checked, she's free and of age to make her decisions, love life inclusive so what's the problem???”“She's doesn't have any rights whatever to make any fucking decisions as long as she's here under my roof Irene!!!! Where is Clara???!!”“She's not a slave in this house Arsenio!!!! She went out on a date with my son and if you want to see her, wait for a while and she's be back home.”“Your son???” I asked as I chuckled.“Yes, my son…Is there a problem with that???” Irene asked.I walked closer to where she was st
ARSENIO'S POVAnnoyed and irritated were exactly what I felt when having sex with Monalisa.It was different from the way it was years ago and when she was still my wife.Her moans didn't turn me on but instead turned me completely off and I just wanted it to be over.After I finished my business with her, she laid on the bed breathing deeply with a wide grin on her face.“That was breathtaking, Arsenio.”“If you are done talking, you can put your clothes back on and leave and you have three days to bring Elijah to me and I don't need to tell you what would happen if you fail to do so.”“I’ve heard you Arsenio but before I leave, can I get a bottle of water to drink??? I need to get back a little of my strength.” Monalisa said.“Whatever, get your water and leave.”“Arsenio, I really missed you and I missed this.” She said as she walked closer to me.“Three days, Monalisa.” I said as I walked into the bathroom.I Switched on the shower and as the water ran through my body, I thought a
CLARA'S POVI saw Arsenio having intense sex with his supposed ex wife Monalisa as I hung my mouth wide open in shock.Her moans were so loud that I was sure the next country from ours could hear it.I stood there watching in shock as my eyes couldn't believe what I was seeing.Arsenio couldn't have sex with any other person in the whole of Italy except his ex wife and the same woman who brought him pain.Tears rolled down my eyes as I felt both hurt and irritated and I backed away from the door and shut it close.I wiped the tears off my face and slowly walked away and went into the kitchen to help ma'am Irene prepare dinner.“Clara, you are here???” Ma'am Irene asked as she walked into the kitchen.“Yes ma'am, I wanted to start dinner.”“Really??? You look pale..is anything the matter???” “Not at all ma'am…I am just tired and a bit bored hence the reason why I might have this pale look on my face.” I said.There was no way I was going to tell ma'am Irene that I went to Arsenio's ro
CLARA'S POVAs soon as Arsenio walked out of the door and left, I went straight to ma'am Irene to inform her of what was happening.“You look worried Clara, what's going on??? Did Arsenio let you treat his wound??” She asked.“Treating his wound is not the problem ma'am.” I said.“Then what?? What exactly happened??”“He allowed me to treat his wound but he left the house again and that too in anger.”“Anger??? I don't understand you Clara.”“I think Sir Elijah did something to offend him again.” I said.Ma'am Irene took a deep breath and then went on with what she was doing.“Why are you quiet ma'am??”“Honestly when it comes to Elijah and Arsenio, I can't do anything about them….they have been at it for years now and all I can do is hope that one day, they will sort out their differences.”“Ma'am, in my opinion I think it's the responsibility of ma'am Adaline to sort out the differences between her two children…she birthed them afterall.”“These children we are talking about aren't
ARSENIO'S POV“Are you sick??!!! What the fuck is your problem Monalisa??!!!” I yelled in anger.“Look Arsenio, can't you see how much I have missed you and how badly I want you to be mine again…. just let me be yours and I promise you won't regret it.”“Let me tell you something you don't know, Lisa…you see those years we were married for, I regret it every day of my life and so when you talk about regrets, you are my biggest yet.”The few years I was married to Monalisa, she and her Father made my life a living hell just because I was naive and had no one to go to.She abused me mentally and even physically and took everything I had left in me including my virginity.She made me into the beast I am today and I would never forgive her or her Father for what they did to me.“It's been years, Arsenio and I apologized for whatever I did.”“When did you fucking apologize Monalisa???”“Arsenio I am here pleading for you to forgive me and accept me back…doesn't this count???”“Ascoltami (l
