ALESSANDRO I was already having a bad day. With the whole Luca shit and Elena pushing me off her. I’d hit my limit for the day. Then, Aria happened.I have no idea why she was back, and frankly, I didn’t care. Aria had never been to my house before. I didn’t like bringing women to my home, it’s my personal sanctuary. until Elena.Listening to her talk all that shit about not liking how we ended, made me wonder if she’d forgotten we never dated. Cutting her off in the past was easy. This time, I would do it again if she crosses more boundaries with me.I knew Elena was at the door, peeking. Which was why I held Aria’s waist as she straddled me. She took it as an invitation to touch me, I was disgusted by her hands on me, couldn’t believe I let her do more than that before. But the show was for Elena and I got the reaction I wanted from her.“We should get together sometime,” she whispered in my ear. But I wasn’t interested in hearing another word. Elena had already scurried away li
ELENAI stared at myself in the mirror, my wedding dress hung over my body like it was just made for me, tears streaming down my face.“It’s time”, Alessia said beside me as she wiped my tears. “Crying is not going to solve this issue,do not let Papà see you like this. It will infuriate him more”.I didn’t respond. The doors opened and mamma came in, glancing quickly at my tear streamed face.“You’ve messed up your makeup,” she said, frowning.“Mamma please I don’t want to do this, don’t make me marry him”.“Your papà is the one you should be telling but don’t do that, he won’t listen. This is the consequences of your actions: live with it”.“The consequences of my actions”, I repeated her words, I couldn’t be angry because I knew she was right. “Let’s go” she nudged me forward.Alessia came up beside me and fixed my makeup.We left the room and met Papà outside. Arms stretched out waiting for me, I linked my arms to his and looked at him. My stare saying more than words could ever
ELENAThe car was silent, apart from the low hum of the engine as we sped through the streets of Milan. City lights flickered past in a blur, but I barely noticed them. My pulse was still unsteady, my hands clasped together on my lap as I stared out the window.I should have said no.I should have walked away, but I didn’t. so here I am in the back seat of a luxurious car with a man I barely know.Alessia would freak out if she knew what I was doing. My sister had always been over protective of me.I brought out my phone and sent a quick text to Sofia.“You guys should go home without me, I left already”I pocketed my phone back and looked out through the window, the silence in the car stretching out more than I care to admit.I took a quick glance at the man beside me, his presence very strong,unmoving. He was focused on his phone oblivious to the emotional turmoil I was going through.The ride was painfully long so I closed my eyes trying to calm my nervous nerves.“You know you can
ELENAHe stood up and unbuttoned his shirt.I gasped when I saw him, his forearm flexing with each movement he made.He removed his pants and the bulge in his briefs made my pussy clench.Finally, he removed them and I stared down at the most beautiful sight I had ever seen.“Suck” he commandedSo I reached for his hard cock and brought them to my mouth, using my tongue to swirl at the tip as he groaned.Pulling my hair backwards, he pushed his full length down my throat and I felt a tear sting at the corner of my eyes. I let my tongue glide down to the underside of his veiny cock, a soft moan escaping my mouth.I took his hard length and sucked until my jaws couldn’t anymore.“Good girl, you look so good taking my cock in your pretty mouth”His raw words made me sucker harder.Reaching for the night stand, he took out a condom and tore it.Realization of what was about to happen dawned on me. This wasn’t the way I envisioned I would lose my virginity. I had imagined it to be on a be
ALESSANDRO The first thing I noticed was the silence.It was unnatural.My hand instinctively reached for the space beside me, where she had been last night. Cold sheets. Empty.My eyes snapped open.I sat up, scanning the room, then moved swiftly to the bathroom. Empty. The living area? Nothing. I stepped onto the balcony, searching the streets below. Not a single trace of her.I ran a hand through my hair, my jaw tightening.She was gone.I exhaled sharply, irritation curling in my gut. Women didn’t leave me. I dictated how things ended. Yet, the girl from last night had vanished before the sun even rose, slipping through my fingers like a ghost.Interesting.I closed my eyes, letting the memories of last night crash into me.The way she looked at me—those wide, innocent blue eyes studying me like I was something dangerous but irresistible. The way her soft lips had parted under my touch, her moans, her body responding to me with a fire she didn’t even know she possessed.She was d
ELENA Papà had made it clear—we were expected at tonight’s dinner meeting. I would have protested, but I knew better. No one went against his word.“Do you have any idea who they are?” I asked Alessia as we stood side by side in the bathroom, getting ready.She shook her head. “No clue. But whoever he is, papà doesn’t want us screwing this up. This might be our only chance at survival.”“Hmm. I still don’t want to be there. I’d rather be watching TV. These meetings bore me to death.”“We don’t have a choice, Lena.” Alessia shot me a look. “Now let’s go. Everyone’s already gathered.”With a sigh, I followed her out. But as we approached the dining hall, I stopped mid-step. My breath hitched, my pulse spiking in an instant. Alessia turned, brows furrowed.“Something wrong?”“I’m in big trouble,” I muttered through clenched teeth.The man seated at the table—the one my Papà wanted to strike a deal with—was none other than my one-night stand.Panic clawed at my chest. Did they know about
ELENAI took my time arranging myself, making sure not to rush back. The last thing I needed was someone seeing us coming out at the same time. Once I was certain enough time had passed, I returned to the dining room—only to find that they had already left.I shot a quick look at Alessia, but she averted her gaze.“Dove sei stato? (Where have you been?)” My papà’s voice cut through the air as I sat down.Shifting uncomfortably in my seat, I muttered, “The bathroom.”“How long do you spend there?”“On my way back, something caught my attention, so I stopped for a moment.”He gave me one last look before pushing his chair back and leaving. My mamma followed, throwing me her own disapproving glance before disappearing after him.I turned to Alessia. “What did I do now?”“You left before dinner was finished. That’s bad manners—especially in front of guests,” she said, unimpressed.I didn’t respond. Instead, I reached for the champagne bottle and poured myself a drink.“How did the meeting
ELENAMy eyes widened as I saw Papà. He was leisurely standing at the doorway. “Damn it”. I muttered. I had forgotten to close the door.“What do you mean you’re pregnant?”. He repeated again. This time his voice was harsher than the first.I quickly stood up from Alessia’s bed,I looked at the floor, unwilling to meet his cold gaze. I thought hard on what to say, but I couldn’t come up with anything.“It’s just an assumption”. I replied under my breath. “Is this true?”. Papá faced Alessia who was out of the bed. Her eyes, devoid of any sleep.I gave her a subtle sign not to say anything.“I am not sure Papà. I am just hearing this for the first time too”. She replied smoothly. Before Papá could respond, mamma rushed into the room.“What’s all the noise for?. She asked no one in particular.“You should ask your daughter”. Papà scoffed. His eyes boring holes in my body.“Elena, what’s going on?”. I looked around, everyone was staring at me, expecting me to talk.“She’s pregnant”. Pap

ELENA“You look… different,” she said, her expression unimpressed as she finally reached me. Maria was long gone, leaving just the two of us standing alone in the hallway.Is Alessandro aware that someone's here to see him? What business could she possibly have that she’d come all the way to the house?“Different? What do you mean?” I asked. I have a feeling we wouldn't get along.She smirked, crossing her arms over her chest. “You know.. not his type. I had no idea his taste had changed. But then again, maybe he’s just trying out different flavors. Must be bored of the same thing.” Her words hit harder than I expected.“And what exactly is his type?”She stepped closer, bending down slightly to whisper in my ear, her perfume nauseatingly strong. “Blonde, slim, slender women who can match him in public. Women who can give him everything he wants. And you, my dear,” she paused, sizing me up, I felt small under her gaze. “Are none of those.”My hands balled into a fist at my side, the
ELENAHe tasted like cigarettes.I didn’t even know he smoked.He made an attempt to slip his tongue into my mouth, but I didn’t let him.What is he doing here?I was the only one at home. Everyone had gone for an event since I was still recovering, they had to go without me. Which was exactly what I needed. A moment to be by myself. To breathe.And yet… he’s here.His hands wrapped around my waist as he guided me to the bed. I was painfully aware I was in nothing but in my panties. I had planned my day; take a shower, binge Netflix in the living room, and fall asleep on the couch. This wasn’t part of it.I tried to push him off, but his grip was firm.He can’t just come in here, kiss me like he loves me, and pretend like he didn’t aim a gun at me. No apologies. No explanations.His lips left my mouth, moving to my neck, leaving scattered kisses. He stared at my breasts longingly, my nipples ached, begging for attention.His hands found my breasts, squeezing them roughly. My panties d
ALESSANDRO “How is he?” I asked one of my men as he stepped into my office, the events of yesterday still fresh in my mind.“The surgery was successful. He’s recovering in the ICU.”“Did you capture him?” I stood up from my chair, my blood simmering. The bastard who’d put Lorenzo in that state wasn’t going scot-free. And I knew Moretti wouldn’t mind handing him over to me.Lorenzo might seem like just one of my men, but he was more than that. He’d worked for my family since he was a kid. His parents had been employed by my father. loyal to the bone until they tragically passed away in an accident. He’s the only one I truly consider a friend. And I don’t let anyone mess with someone close to me without consequences.“You can go,” I gestured for him to leave and turned back to my paperwork.“And sir…” he hesitated at the door, hand on the handle.“What?”“Your wife went with her family.” And with that, he left.I picked up my phone, checking for any messages from her. something, anyt
Immediately the gun touched my temple, my blood ran cold. My chest pounded as my body went still. I tried to move, but his grip was strong.The room had fallen deathly silent, Lorenzo’s body still sprawled across the floor, blood splattered everywhere like gruesome painting. “Put your fucking guns down,” Papá ordered, standing up from his chair. His face, a mix of shock and worry. “Put the gun down, and we can talk about this,” Papà said, taking a cautious step towards us.“Do not fucking come close, or there will be more than one body on the floor,” Alessandro growled, His voice sending shivers down my spine. my body trembled beneath his hold. I closed my eyes, trying to calm my racing heart, but it wasn’t working.They were still talking, but I couldn’t hear a thing.Their voices blurred, drowned by the fear in my head. How did I get here?Held at gunpoint by my husband.I looked over at Alessia, her eyes were on me, wide and glassy. The tears she'd been holding finally spilled
ELENAI knew better than to question him, the way he spoke, the tone of his voice, he terrified me. I had no choice but to obey.I sat in the car, silent, my knees pressed tightly together as I gripped my phone.What has Papà done this time?. I quickly sent a text to Alessia:“What’s happening”Her reply came almost instantly:“I don’t understand.”Confusion clawed at me. isn’t she aware? My eyes met Alessandro’s at the rearview mirror. but I quickly looked away. he said nothing, his gaze fixed in the road, his jaw clenched.I typed again:“What has Papà done this time that has Alessandro fuming?. We are driving over to the house now.”When I got no response, I knew she had gone to tell them. I placed my phone on my lap and watched as we neared the estate. My pulse quickened, a desperate prayer in my mind: please let nothing go wrong.The gates of my parents’ house came into view. I unfastened my seatbelt, ready to be free of the confined space with him.He parked outside the gate
ALESSANDRO I watched as Elena rambled on about our non-existent happy marriage. If I didn’t know her, I might have believed every word.“And that was how we met.” She finished one of her tales with a satisfied smile.“I didn’t peg you to be the romantic type, Alessandro.” Mr Gold remarked , amused.I turned to look at her, having no idea of what she had told him.“Oh, honey, don’t give me that look.” She teased.“I was just telling Mr. Gold about the first time you saw me. You know, in the club, I was dancing, and you couldn’t take your eyes off me. So you sent your men to call me but I turned you down. I thought that was the end of it, but then you followed me outside, begging for a date. You looked so pitiful and I couldn’t say no. As they say, the rest is history.”“Elena.” I murmured, low enough that only she could hear it. “Stop it.”She met my eyes, winked and turned back to Mr Gold.“It was lovely talking to you Elena, it will be nice to catch up again, if your husband lets y
ELENAThe vibration of my phone startled me from sleep.I sat up, looking around the room. no sign of movement to show someone was here with me. He had left.I heaved a sigh of relief, after what he did yesterday, his face was the last thing I wanted to see this morning. I rose up, arranged the bed and was on my way out when something caught my eye.A fileCuriosity got the better of me, a file. I picked it up, my name etched in bold letters across the front. My heart pounded as I flipped it open. The moment I did, several photographs slipped from its pages, fluttering on the floor. I crouched down, gathering them in trembling hands.My breath hitched They were pictures of me taken over the past two months. Me with Alessia. Me with college friends. Me in places I hadn’t realized I was being watched.A sick feeling twisted in my stomachHad he been keeping tabs on me all this while?Suddenly, I felt exposed. Like unseen eyes were watching me. My gaze searched the room looking for hidd
ELENA“Your husband is a monster”, Alessia said over the phone. I had just finished telling her what happened at the airport.“I agree”, I nodded, even though she couldn’t see me.“But the creep deserved it. Thank God Alessandro got there on time”.“He did”. I acknowledged. But I never thanked him, deep down, I knew he hadn’t done it for me, he was just furious that someone had dared to lay their hands on what he considered his property.“How was your wedding night?”. She asked, switching the topics.I recalled that night, how Alessandro didn’t utter a word to me. “It was… great.”“Don’t lie to me”, her voice carried an amused edge.I sighed. “Fine, we just went to our separate bedrooms and called it a night.”She was quiet for a while then she spoke.“Elena, if you want to survive in that marriage, you have to make him want you, you do know that whatever resentment he holds for Papà, he’s going to take it out on you.“I know this might sound like I am telling you to seduce him, but
