ARSENIO'S POV“Boss, Elijah just informed me that he has found Clara's Mother.” Sergio said.I looked around to make sure Clara wasn't out of the bathroom yet.“What??? How???” I asked Sergio.“I have no idea boss but I got a call from him telling me he found her whereabouts and that his work was done.”“What work is fucking done???!!! That bastard shouldn't test my patience!!!”“But on the contrary boss, isn't his work done?? He has found Clara's Mother's whereabouts and it is now left to us to take it up from there.” “I have a feeling that that bastard is lying….let me give him a call now, I will get back to you.” I said to Sergio as I hung up the call.To prevent Clara from hearing my conversation with Elijah, I walked out of the room and went downstairs.I dialed Elijah's number but he didn't pick up the first time and so I dialed again.“Why are you calling me Arsenio, I thought I already gave Sergio a message to pass across to you??” Elijah said as he picked the call.“Sei fott
ARSENIO'S POV“I am not letting go of you Arsenio so do your worst.” Clara said as I sent her a deadly glare.I didn't understand what Clara's problem was but I was not in the mood for her childish tantrums.I pushed her away as she stumbled slightly and as she was about to revolt, we heard the sounds of gunshots as Clara covered her ears and bent down in fear.“Stay here and don't fucking leave!!!!” I yelled as I walked out of the room.WARNING (violence and graphic scene)I carefully snuck around the hallway and headed downstairs and I could see one of them peeping through the living room as I pointed the gun at him and blew his head as blood splattered all over the floor.I noticed there were more than two men who came to assassinate me but I wasn't scared as I was already used to it.I quietly climbed down from the stairs and headed to the balcony as I sighted another one close to my patio.I shot at him but I missed him by just a few inches as he shot back while I dodged the bull
CLARA'S POVI couldn't believe that I finally gave myself to Arsenio and thinking he would change after that was probably the worst unorganized thought I have ever had.After I stormed out of the room, I sat down at the hospital's reception lost in thoughts about Arsenio and his work because I didn't understand why armed men always came around the house with intentions to kill him.“Is he into some gang shit???” I asked myself.As I continued with my thoughts, I overheard someone talking to a nurse.“Where is Arsenio Robert's room please??” She asked.I looked up and was shocked to see Arsenio's ex wife at the hospital.What I couldn't understand was if Arsenio called her or if she found out on her own about the incident but whatever it was, I needed to know.The nurse showed her to his room as I followed behind unnoticed.“Oh my goodness!!!!Baby??!??” she said as she walked into the room while I stood outside the door eavesdropping.“Monalisa??? What the fuck are you doing here??!!!!
CLARA'S POV“Why are you embarrassed??? Did you do something wrong or something embarrassing???” Arsenio asked in a low tone.“Arsenio!! This is a hospital and you know that anyone can just walk in.” I said.“No, this is not a public ward where anyone could just walk in…She invaded our privacy and ruined our moment.”“You really are very naughty Arsenio.”“Naughty??? Says the one who's pussy is still on my dick.” “Oh goodness!!!” I said.I was about to stand up when Arsenio held me down and smirked.“Arsenio, let go of me!!! Someone else might walk in here.”“But we didn't get to finish what we started, baby girl.”“We can do that some other time, now let go.” I said as I mistakenly pressed Arsenio's arm where he was shot.“Fuck!!!!!!” Arsenio groaned in pain.“I am so Sorry!!! I didn't mean to hurt you…I am sorry.” I said with a worried look on my face.“It’s okay…I want to use the restroom…I'll be back but you can come with me if you want to.” Arsenio said as he winked at me.“Just
CLARA'S POVI read the message over and over again as I couldn't understand it.“I am Clara right???” I asked myself.I have never been so confused the way I was in my entire life.I knew my Mother was dead and so I concluded that maybe Arsenio knew another lady by the name Clara.Arsenio slept for about three hours and I fell asleep while watching him.As I rested my head on the bed and slept, Someone suddenly tapped my arm softly as I woke up abruptly looking around in confusion.“You look cute when sleeping.” Arsenio said In almost a whisper.“Oh, you are awake….thank goodness.” I said yawning.“What exactly happened???”“You don't remember??” “Well I remember going to the restroom and the rest is history.”Arsenio said.“The history part of it is that you went into surgery again to restitch your wound.” I said.“What??? My wound got opened???” “Yeah it did and you lost a lot of blood hence the reason you passed out.” “Alright then ..have you seen my phone anywhere??? I want to s
CLARA'S POV“With all due respect Sir, I am not going anywhere with you.” I said.Arsenio walked slowly towards me as gazed intensely into my eyes without breaking eye contact.“Cosa hai detto (what did you say)??”“I said....I..I...don't…wa…want…to…g..go…anywhere.” I said stuttering.“I wasn't asking you Clara Nivera, I was telling you to get dressed…I'll be back for you in a few hours and you better don't test me baby girl because you won't like what I would do to you.” Arsenio said in a low and dangerous tone.“But I don't..”“Shhhhh…be a good girl and do as I have asked…see you soon Clara.” Arsenio said as he kissed my forehead softly and walked away.As soon as Arsenio walked out of the room, I took a pillow and covered my face with it screaming my lungs out.Suddenly I heard a knock at the door as I threw the pillow back on the bed in a swift motion.“Come in.” I said.The door opened revealing a young beautiful lady.“Hello Miss Clara, I am here to help you out with your makeup
ARSENIO'S POV“I have my way, baby girl and one last thing, if you know you are putting on panties, take them off because I can't guarantee I will be able to hold myself for much longer.” I whispered to Clara as her face instantly reddened.“Why am I not invited too??”I looked on as I saw Isabella coming into the house.“Where have you been???” I asked.“Out…am not a prisoner here am I??”“Whatever, just know your time here is limited.” I said.“Boss, are we set to go??” Sergio asked.“Yes, let's go.” I said as Clara, Sergio and I entered into the car as he drove off.I couldn't take my eyes off Clara because she was looking extremely beautiful and sexy.The dress I got for her fitted her perfectly shaped body so well that I wanted to rip the dress off her and take her from behind until he couldn't walk anymore.The mere thought of her made my dick twitch in excitement and I had to look out of the window to distract myself.Clara suddenly started tapping her feet on the ground as she
CLARA'S POVFrom the moment Arsenio, Sergio and I left the house, my heart was in my mouth as I was a nervous wreck.Even in the car when Arsenio asked me if I was nervous, I had to lie to him so I wouldn't start any unnecessary issues.I hoped and prayed deep down that this impromptu outing would go well but as soon as his friend Romero kissed my hand and asked for my name, my nervousness increased again.And to crown it all, the man who sent someone to ask for me had to ruin the night by making Arsenio furious.Sergio went with me to the restroom and stood outside as I tried to get the wine stain off my dress.The stain didn't wipe off completely and so I looked at the mirror and sighed deeply.A few moments later, the bathroom door suddenly swung open as Arsenio stormed in holding the man who wanted to talk to me at gunpoint.“What's going on Arsenio???” I asked as fear gripped me.“You see that woman over there, take a very good look at her because anywhere you set your fucking ey
ARSENIO'S POV“Oh my goodness!!! Why would she do this??” Irene exclaimed loudly.I wasn't just angry at the moment but I was in rage.After everything I did for Clara, after helping her escape from the vipers she called family, this was how she chose to pay me back...by killing me.“There must be a mistake Arsenio, you and I Know very well that Clara would never do such a thing.” Irene said as she still tried to defend Clara.“Enough Irene!!!! I am already so pissed off and I don't want to transfer that aggression to you.” I said.“Boss, what should we do with her???”Sergio asked as he tried to take back the laptop.“Leave it…I am not done with it and as for Clara, she will remain at the warehouse until I am ready to see her.” I said.“Arsenio please don't do that to her…she is going to die if you leave her there like that.” Irene said.“Then so be it!!! That is what she gets for trying to double cross me and pay my kindness back with evil.”I knew exactly what I was doing and I wasn
ARSENIO'S POVI squinted my eyes open as I looked around In confusion.A long syringe was attached to my hand and I was in a strange looking room and also lying on a strange looking bed.It was at that moment it immediately dawned on me what had happened and how I suddenly started feeling off as soon as I ate the food served by Clara.“Shit!!!!!!” I exclaimed out loud.“Hmmm…. Arsenio, you are finally awake!!” Someone said in a low voice.I looked across me and saw Irene sitting up from the chair with very sleepy eyes as she yawned.“Irene??? What are you doing here???”“You are welcome.” She said as she rolled her eyes.“Where the fuck is she??!!!!” I yelled but immediately started groaning as I felt intense pain in my stomach.“First of all, welcome back to the land of the living and secondly, you should be more concerned about your health right now more than anything because you have been unconscious for a day and half.”“What???!!!”“Yes, the doctor said you were in a really criti
WRITER'S POV“Doctor, what exactly is wrong with him???” Irene asked with a worried look on her face.“Where did you say you found him again???” The doctor asked.“In his room lying helplessly on the ground.”“Did he eat or drink something before you found him???”“Not that I know of but I did find a tray of food on the bed close to where I found him.”“Who served the food to him???”“Why are you asking all these questions, doctor??? I don't understand.” “Madam, the person you brought in here was clearly poisoned and this seems like a case of an attempted murder.”Irene's eyes opened widely in shock as she couldn't understand the words of the doctor.“Attempted murder??? By who??? I don't understand.” Irene said.“You need to carry out more investigations and especially on who gave him the food he consumed.”“But how is he doing doctor???” “He is in a bad shape at the moment as the poison got to some of his major organs….but he will be closely observed for a while and until we see a
ARSENIO’S POV“What will you do if you find out your Father whom you have thought to be dead for a long time is actually alive and well??” Clara said.As soon as she asked that question, I detached my arms from around her as I flipped her around so she could look at me.“What did you just say??” I asked.“I said if you find out your Father is indeed alive even after presuming he has been dead for the longest time, what would you do??” she asked again as she gazed intently into my eyes.“And why the fuck will you ask me such question??? Why??” I asked.“It’s just a harmless question, Arsenio.” she said.As I looked at Clara closely, I could notice something about her was different but I just couldn’t place my hands on what changed.“I do not feel like answering that question.” I said.“I am sorry if I asked such a sensitive question..it’s just that I got thinking about how my Mother suddenly showed up after I thought she was dead right from childhood and as much as I am a bit comfortab
ARSENIO’S POV“At the house standing right in front of me.” “What??? What do you mean by that??” I asked in confusion as I sat up straight.“Clara just entered the house and she is right in front of me.” Sergio said.For some reason, I suddenly remembered Don Rio’s words when he said I didn’t need to find Clara and that she was going to find me.“Sergio, do something for me quickly…check if she is armed.” I said.“I don’t get you boss.”“Check if she is armed, Sergio!!! Check for guns or bombs or anything immediately.”“Yes boss.” Sergio said and I could hear Clara protesting against what Sergio was doing from the background of the phone and a few seconds later, he informed me that she had nothing on her.“I will be there soon but till then, don’t let her out of your sight.” I said as I hung up the call.I dropped the bottle of Scotch as I zoomed out of the bar and headed straight to the house.Took me a while due to traffic but I finally got home after an hour and half.I parked my
ARSENIO’S POV I didn’t want to come to the hospital with this bastard that Adaline calls my brother but I was forced to come after Irene guilt tripped me.“What exactly is your problem Arsenio??? Do you and Elijah want to end the life of your Mother before you both realize what you are doing??” Irene asked.“Adaline is not my Mother.” “Okay, do you want to end the life of a human being???”“I don’t care…” I said as I observed Elijah moving away from Irene and I just to make a phone call.I suspected something was fishy but when I was about to investigate who he was on a call with, a doctor came out of the emergency room.“Are you the family of the lady that was rushed in here??”“No.” I said.“Yes.” Irene said as she glared at me.“We have some not so good news.” he said.“What is the matter???” Irene asked.“Her blood pressure was extremely high when she was brought in here and that caused blood to flood into her brain and so she has been placed in an induced coma.”“What?? Induced
ELIJAH'S POVAs soon as my Mother fell to the ground, it was as though time stopped instantly.The only thing that could come out of my mouth was yelling, Mother.I stood beside her as I shook her gently but she was unresponsive and when I checked her pulse, there was barely any.Without wasting further time, I carried her bridal style as I raced out of the house and gently placed her into the car.At that moment I didn't care if anyone was coming with me, I just needed to save the life of my Mother because that was all that mattered.I got to the nearest hospital and handed my Mother to the nurses as they raced into the emergency ward and also to my greatest surprise, I saw Irene and that bastard behind me.“What is he fucking doing here???!!” I yelled in rage.“Elijah, this is a hospital for goodness sake!! The priority right now is your Mother so let's focus on that!!!” Irene said.“But I don't fucking want him here!!!”“Do you think I fucking want to be here???” Arsenio said as he
WRITER'S POV“Whatever you both know, keep it to your fucking selves because I don't give a fuck about it…. where did Rio take Clara to???” Arsenio asked.Elijah suddenly burst into laughter.“So finding out where your mistress is being kept is more important than knowing the truth about your birth???” Elijah asked.“Do I look like I give a fuck??? Now tell me where Clara is.” Arsenio said as he brought out his gun and pointed it towards Elijah.“Is that all you can do???” Elijah asked as he also brought out his gun and pointed it at Arsenio.Adaline looked at both her sons pointing their guns to each other as her confusion worsened.“What is the meaning of this??? Why is it so difficult for you brothers to live in peace???” Irene asked.“That bastard is no brother of mine…if he doesn't tell me what I need to know, I can assure you that someone's corpse will be leaving this house soon.” Arsenio said.“Elijah, look at me.” Adaline said.Elijah ignored his Mother as he kept on glaring a
WRITER'S POV“You heard me, Arsenio Robert, loudly and clearly.” Irene declared angrily.“Che ti ha dato il diritto di parlarmi in questo modo (Who gave you the right to speak to me this way)???” Arsenio asked.“And who gave you the right Arsenio to speak to us the way that you please??? I understand that you are a boss and have an entire empire running under you but that doesn't give you any right whatsoever to talk down on family.”“What fucking family???!!! the one who abandoned me when i needed her the most or the one who is trying to pair her fucked up son with my woman??!!!” Arsenio yelled.“What???” Irene asked with a shocked look on her face.“Don't fucking act like you don't know what I am talking about Irene!!!”Adaline who has been quietly watching the argument erupt between Arsenio and Irene shook her head in pity as she silently blamed herself for making Arsenio turn out to be a heartless person who had no regards for anyone.“What do you mean by I am trying to set my son
