I'd never taken a day off in my life. A leave of convenience? That's not for me. Well, except for tonight. Tonight, I seem to have broken a lot of my rules, no alcohol, no reckless decisions, no dressing and/or dancing like slut, and, no flirting. Is this normally how one reacts after recently learning that their mother is dying from cancer? Nope, but if I continue like this for tonight at least, I can forget my problems for a while. I swung my hips to the blasting music, no one was dancing hard enough, fuckers. I traced my accentuated curves as I spun. It was a shame my ex never got to see this dress, I had bought it for our graduation celebratory dinner, but the asshole decided to fuck my best friend the night before. Now, I get to wear it for a bunch of strangers, ones who look eager to take it off tonight. One person looked more determined than the rest, he was seated quite far from where I was, but his gaze was so sharp. He's beautiful, I thought to myself. If he's lucky enoug
She would be my wife. I would make sure of it. She's the exact opposite of what mother would want for me and I'll make her mine. But tonight, oh tonight. I moved to her, enjoying the look of desperation on her face. With one hand I gripped her breast, teasing her nipple slightly. She moaned. Fuck. These panties, I need to see how soaking wet she is for me. "Lay down." She obeyed, good girl. I slid my fingers against her panties, I could feel her slickness through the fabric, how ready she was for me. I fingered her wet folds through the lace, all while maintaining eye contact. Watching her squirm hardened my cock even further. Shit, I need to feel her bare, raw. I took off my clothing, dropping my briefs down slowly, I couldn't miss the gasp that left her lips after seeing my erect cock. So many emotions sprawled over her face, her cheeks red with arousal, and anticipation. Her nipples, pointy and peaked, begging to be sucked. How could I resist? I swept down on her perfe
What the fuck was I thinking? Did I enjoy the sex? Yes. Was he an ass? Yes. Do I hope I'll never see him again? Maybe. Anyway, the point is, I'm late, I'm meant to have an appointment with Ma's doctor this afternoon, it's currently 12:40 pm, the train to the hospital takes at least 15 minutes, and the appointment is by 1 pm. I had hoped to at least brush my teeth to be a bit presentable, even though I probably reek of alcohol. What kind of fancy suite provides toothbrushes without toothpaste? Waking up late is one thing, but having the time to brush, but not the equipment? Outrageous. As soon as I got on the train, I got a call from my Ma. "Mama." I coughed out. "Emma, where are you piccina? The doctor, I'll be called in soon, you know you're not my only guardian anymore." she sounded worried. "I know mama, I'll be there soon, I'm ten minutes away." I tried to hide the tension in my voice. "Don't worry, just sit and wait, the doctor said worry isn't good for your condition, cal
Emma Hart is the only child of a single mother, Lilian Adams, half American, half Italian.Raised alone, drowning in debts, graduated from Florence Academy of Fine Arts, Florence.So, she does live in Rimini, interesting.I misjudged her earlier, she was probably looking for toothpaste to freshen up, and I realized the wrapping on the toothbrush was torn open.But, I won't apologize, I don't do that, ever."One more thing sir." My assistant James said. "I recently learned her mother has been diagnosed with stage two lung cancer, and they, er…have some financial difficulties."It's been four days since my interesting one-night stand. People are easily bought with money, she'll be my wife with a snap of my fingers."You know what to do James. Find out her workplace, I want to meet with her as soon as possible." I instructed. He nodded and walked out of my office.I have to marry Emma, she's my way out. My mother, Isabella Caruso, wants me to marry Serena Moretti, that Jezebel. I underst
What did he just say?"Wait…what?""Marry me, Emma, all your bills, debts, hospital fees, fuck it, even this building will be yours, the Caruso Empire owns it, so I own it. I'll give it to you."Wait, he's dead serious.So what if he's fucking Vanderbilt? How dare he?But, the money doesn't sound like a bad idea. But, it is crazy, my one-night stand coming to me with a marriage proposal less than a week after meeting him."Why?" I ask"Because I need you," he replies swiftly, his face devoid of any emotion."Right." I chuckle. "And if I refuse?""You won't." Oh, he sure is an arrogant son of a bitch. "Because you need my money, the same way I need your hand."I hate that he's right, but this feels wrong and fast, too fast.So, I say "No. I refuse. I know nothing about you, or what I'm getting into." What if he's an organ harvester?"Darling, if you wanna know about me, look up 'Liam Caruso', although I'm not sure if the million and one articles you see can tell you the full truth. I'm
All hell had broke lose. Mother’s constant nagging, Serena’s annoying pestering, but they would eventually grow tired.“You must be out of your mind.” Mother spells as she slams a tablet in front of me. She turns her back to me, paces slowly in front of my desk.There was an article, tugging at edges, baseless claims. One claiming I had tied the knot two days ago.True? Yes. Evidence? None.“Let them blab. It won’t affect any of your dealings. You said I am to marry, I did as you said. Now, please cease coming to bother me at work Ma.” I said as plainly as I could.“What you did, was put a ring on nameless street vermin. You threw our valuable name, a name of hard work over generations on the next bitch you could find. You embarrassed me, you embarrassed the family, how can you not see that?” I have never seen Mother this angry, not even when she lost million-dollar deals.A dramatic reaction, I must say.“I will not have you speak about my wife like that. Sooner or later, you’ll have
Dickhead.Look at him, all smug and confident-filled, looking as expression-less as ever, fuck him.He’s not looking like someone who had me confined to this big house like I’m some sort of prisoner, when my only crime is marrying a Caruso for money I urgently need.I hate how he still manages to look so fine when I’m writhing with anger and confusion from my insides out. I can barely contain my frustration and he’s here…teasing me.The least he could do is be ugly, at least my hatred couldn’t be confused as lust at times, but the cherry on top of the cake, is, he is not.He’s freakishly handsome, dark hair, and the most manly man I’ve ever set eyes on. He possesses the true charisma of an Italian man, plus the ego, and now this 6 foot 4 man is towering over me, I can’t handle this.“We need to talk.” I say and turn away from him to catch my breath. I sit on the sofa and rub my forehead. I have to find the most calm way to ask my questions.Why is your family entangled with my missing
I clear my throat, regain my pose and look her squarely.“Good morning Mrs Caruso. It’s nice to finally meet you.” I greet, it’s best to not pretend like I don’t know who she is.I extend my hand for a handshake, she eyes it suspiciously, clutches her purse and relaxes on her seat.Well, that was awkward. I withdraw my hand and wipe it awkwardly on my gown. Once again, I am terribly dressed making it even harder to make a good expression.Shit.“I must give it to my son, he may have mentioned when he purchased this…” she starts eyeing the room “…place. But, it’s hard to keep up with his new location, he keeps running away like I’m some sort of monster.” she cackles.I smile nervously.“So, this is where he kept you. Hmm. Well, sit darling, I am in your home after all.” she sneers sarcastically.I nod and take the seat opposite her, it’s hard to avert her piercing gaze.She stares and eyes me quietly for an awkward while before asking “Are you in love with my son?”Well mother Mary!“C
