ARSENIO'S POVThe rage I felt earlier intensified as I crushed the glass of drink in my hand much to Carlo's surprise.“He is your brother right??”“He is not my brother.” I gritted out.“I suggest that whatever you both have going on be settled amongst you and maybe come to a truce and handle the deal together.”“Never!!!!! A deal I have single handedly been pursuing for months, you want me to share it with someone else??? That's not how Arsenio does business Carlo…. isn't there any other way to change this??? To make this deal all mine??? I am willing to pay heavily for it.” I said.“As you know my dear friend Arsenio, this deal doesn't revolve around me alone….I don't know what this Elijah Robert did but he sure knows his way around..I would advise you to reach out to him and talk…if you still want the deal to be yours.” I stood up in anger as I tried calming myself to prevent doing something drastic.“Thank you for your time Carlo…I will get back to you soon.”“Alright Arsenio, w
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
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
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
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
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
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
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“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
