AVERY’s POV My whole body was on fire just by a single touch of his tongue on my nipple. He stopped and then stood up to his feet. He pulled my singlet back up and dragged me back up. My legs were shivering and I shamelessly wished that he didn't stop. "You mind seeing me off?" Suddenly he wants to leave? He knows exactly what he is doing! So, crazy! "What was all that about, if you knew that you would end up stopping halfway?" "You want us to continue?" "No, that.. No, that is not what I mean!" "Then what do you mean?" I looked around for answers but words failed me. I wasn't sure what I meant. "I would never want the first one to be this way. I would not want it to be rushed and in your house. And, you are right, Logan could easily have walked out of his room and seen us. I would not want that for him, so, you have your answer" Oh. He is a good man. He is not as bad as I thought he was. I saw him off to the gate before I walked back into my house, an
LUCRECIA’s POV I have been in bed, naked since I got back from the hospital. Silva's description of what happened to him sounded like a myth, nothing about it sounded true. I feel he doesn't want to tell me what happened to him. I wasn't sure why, but I will get the truth no matter what. I walked to the balcony and looked up at the sky. I heard a loud thud from inside my room and I quickly ran back inside. Before I could grab my towel my door swung open and Paolo barged in a pair of black cargo pants, and a black Shirt. His height always compliments whatever he wears. He looked at me with this dark amazement and I stood there naked staring back at him. Why was he looking at me like that? Did Silva tell him that I stopped by the hospital? That stupid man. He walked closer and held my hand. He twisted it a bit, and I whimpered. "Paolo, you are hurting me. Stop! What is wrong with you?" "What is wrong with me? You don't know? Tell me you do not know what you did wrong?" His eyes wer
LICRECIA’s POV I just did that right? I just screamed out Axell's name. I stayed on that position, while Paolo angrily pulled out and stood up, staring at me. "Axell? You just mentioned that man's name! Axell?!!!" He screamed at the top of his voice that I was forced to stand up from the bed. I was trembling, the atmosphere in there was suddenly cold, and all I could think about was to get a safe space and run into it because Paolo's face was burning with rage. He practically hates anything that concerns comparing him with Axell. "Paolo.. That.. That.. You know it was a mistake, right? I would never..." "Keep your fucking mouth shut!!! I know exactly what to do! It is all my fault!" He exclaimed and then bounced out of my room furiously. ******************** AVERY’s POV When I got to work I sat down on my chair already tired and I wished I could just go back home. "Okay, the week has been great. I guess the week knows we are all tired, it has been running pretty fast, rig
AXELL’s POV Scofield and I walked to my office, and I knew we just had to reopen the past and talk about it. "Please, have your seat, Man" I said with a light smile to him. He sat down comfortably, feeling relaxed and fulfilled. He sure enjoyed the fact I spoke down on Avery in front of him. He had the guts to even say he has always had eyes for her. Such a pitiful man. "Want something to drink?" "Do not worry about it, Avery, I mean, Sir. I am so sorry for that, it was a slip of the tongue" He chuckled happily and banged his hands on my desk. I stared at him, trying to hide my disgust and frustration, and I hoped I could pretend for long. I sat opposite him on my chair, and I brought out a file. "Scofield, how have you been, and have you been handling the school for all these years all alone? I know this conversation is long overdue, but let's not go to that" He nodded then moved his shoulders like he was getting ready to get into the ring. He is an old
BILLY’s POV I was sitting in my classroom while the others were making jokes and laughing about different things, but there was nothing funny about my situation. Where do I go from here? I never needed that test because I knew that I was pregnant. I have been throwing up, feeling nauseous, feeling bloated, and I noticed how I also hate swallowing my saliva. I am pregnant, and I know it for sure I ran into the toilet to throw up, and I began to cry again. I have cried countless times ever since I started having this feeling. I just needed the report to prove what I had already known. My parents would not only be disappointed but also heartbroken. My father never wanted me to come to this school because he said the rich make you do things you never want to do, and I guess he was right. How did I end up here? While in deep thought I heard a loud thud on the door, and I almost had a heart attack. I slightly opened the door, and it was my friends. "What is wrong wit
(OBJECTS CLATTERRING) DON’s CORLEONE’s POV The meeting was almost over, but the members were still going head-to-head with each other while I just stared at them lazily. Ever since what happened to Silva the members have been on my neck to appoint a new family head, but how do I even do that when I am not even sure who is truly worthy of that position between Paolo and Axell? These two men have been great assets to the mafia world, but ever since jealousy crept in they separated and got into a blood fight which led to the killing of many innocent souls, and also the division of the mafia families. In order to bring them back together and restore unity we need a head who is just and righteous, it is hard to see someone like that in this field of work, but I have always known Axell, and he has been an excellent man, but the life of crime has ruined him, and he ran from it. We lost a good gem the day he backed out, but what people do not understand about this game is that;
AVERY’s POV Billy followed me back home because she said she was scared of going home. I called her parents and they said it was fine for her to spend the night at my house. She dry-cleaned her uniform and played games with Logan. After a while, Camila called Billy into my room even though I told her not to. "Avery, we are already helping her, right? The least she can do is tell us who the father of the child is" Billy stepped into the room and by the look on her face, you could easily tell that she knew something was off. "Is something wrong Miss Avery? You both are staring at me like I did something wrong" Well, I mean literally she did, right? "That sentence was so wrong, Billy" "Sorry about that Miss Camila" "I need a favor from you, Billy. We need a favor from you" Camila pointed to me and then back to herself. "Yes, ma'am. Anything, please" "We need you to tell us the truth. You are suffering all alone which is very wrong. Who is the father of the c
AVERY’s POV I stood on a spot for close to a minute waiting for the person to come out, but they didn't. That is definitely not Axell, I am sure of it. Immediately I turned around to my left I saw Axell walking out his gate. I exhaled heavily and then I ran to him. "Hey, whta is wrong with you? You look happy to see me. Feels good" "Do you know who that is?" I pointed at the car, and he stared. "That is Bryson, is something wrong?" "Not at all, I got confused" He held my hand and told me to follow him to his house. "Your house?" "Yes. Come on, it will be fine" "I can't.. I mean.." "Why? You think you wont be able to control yourself around me, eh?" I avoided eye contact with him then I shook my head. "That is not it.." "Then come with me. I won't take long I promise" I slightly nodded and he pulled my hands. We walked through his gate, then to the garden. I kept looking around the whole place, and it felt like it was a different street. It
AXELL’s POVThose two bastards.Bryson looked at my face then he turned around and also saw them.“Ah, for fuck sake can this night get anything worse? Seeing those two just ruined my mood”“Tell me about it.. Let's go”Immediately we took a step forward, I heard Paolo’s annoying voice.“Hey, Axell! My man”They both walked close to us, and he forcefully shook my hands.Lucrecia kept avoiding eye contact, and I stared at her with so much disgust in my heart. I so much hated her guts. So much.“Hey, Silva. Did you drive in with Axell?”Silva nodded and Paolo smiled.He has always been friends with Silva, so I am sure he hated seeing him with me.“I see, is this some kind of bonding or what..”“Paolo, if you do not have anything sensible to say, then we will meet each other inside. Huh”We walked away leaving them there, and I was so glad I shunned him. Fuck, I hated his guts so much!As we got inside I was mesmerized by how beautiful the settings of the place looked.They had a poster
LUCRECIA’s POVI have been unable to meet Axell since the day he arrived in Mexico all because of Paolo.I have been indoors, simply because Paolo has trust issues.I hate him so much.If Axell leaves and I do not get to see him then Paolo is to be blamed and I won't let him off easily.I heard footsteps approaching my room, and I immediately shot my eyes like I was sleeping.I didn't want to speak to anyone especially not my mother.I felt hands on my thighs up to my ass, and I immediately opened up my eyes.Paolo? What is he doing here? And with a bag in his hands.“What are.. You? What are you doing here?”“What do you mean by that?”“I heard that the Corleone is hosting a party at his resort later tonight, yeah? Shouldn't you be getting ready?”“You seem to know a lot, huh? Well, then I suppose you know the party is for Axell, right?”“Is it? I had no idea bout that”He smirked and then placed the bag on the table.I knew the party was for Axell, and I must attend it. I need to se
AXELL’s POV “Are you sure about this, Bryson? I mean we might be making a mistake” “Do you have anyone else in mind? I mean he is the only one I can think of” “I mean.. I do not.. But..but, how are we even sure he will take it?” “Why wouldn’t he? You said it yourself that he is always aiming for high positions and power, right? So come on, he will” “Fine, drive faster” “This is fast enough, Axell. We will get there soon” “We told him we would be there by 1 pm, this is almost 1 pm, and we are nowhere near his house” “Just calm down, Axell. We are almost there” I was still in doubt about what we were about to do, and I didn't have many choices. At least he is better than Paolo. When we arrived there it was 12:52 pm, and I was so glad that at least we arrived 8 minutes earlier. The guards directed us to where he was. He was at the back of the house, sitting on a chair with some files on the table in front of him. He looked so concentrated in what he was doing
AXELL’s POVThe other men were not having it, and I swear they were ready to throw hands at me. They stood up to their feet and were screaming at the top of their voices, while Bryson and I kept laughing.Silva kept staring at me, and I wanted to know what he was thinking about. “Silence!!!”The godfather screamed and they all kept mute. Wow, the power this man holds.. Must be nice.“In front of these young boys, y’all are embarrassing yourselves in the name of trying to have an opinion? What do you men want? That we force Axell to take a position he doesn't want, or what? Come on I am all ears”No one said anything then he looked at Silva.“Silva, I noticed you have been oddly quiet, mind to share with us your thoughts about all of these. Everyone else please take your seats”They sat down, and Silva stood up. The youngest Don, must feel so good about himself. I should have dealt with him even more when I had the chance to.“I do not have much to say, Corleone, but all I will say i
AXELL’s POVThey stared and murmured amongst themselves then the godfather stood up on his feet and everyone else including me did the same thing.“Take your seats. It is fine”He waved and we all sat back down.The godfather is a a man in his late 50s I presume, but he looks way younger and agile. He has always been on top of his game and is always ready to stand on business, and I wonder if he is still like that.Before I left, when my parents died, he came and told me everything was gonna be fine. He promised to find to bring justice for them, but I wonder what happened.I hope they have not made him corrupt and biased. “Once again we welcome Axell Leonardo to our midst. He left Mexico 5 years ago as a weak and terrified boy but has returned as a strong man. Your father must be so proud of you wherever he is, Axell”I looked around and saw all the fake smiles of the Dons especially Silva.I bowed my head and thanked the godfather for the praises, but I wonder how he arrived at the
AVERY’s POV“Oh my God, Axell.. Why would you even say that?”“I don't know, but once you ended that call on me, I knew there was trouble”“Axell, it's just been a lot.. Like a lot, and I have been dealing with so much”I don't want to tell him about Billy or Shawn, not yet, especially not on the phone.“You wanna tell me about it?”“Nah. But, I will once we get to see”“Wanna Facetime? I will call you”He didn't wait for my answer and just quickly ended the call.He called me on Facetime and the minute I answered he smiled beautifully.He turned on the lights in his room and showed me around.Wow.. It looked so huge. He had to convince me it was a penthouse inside a hotel before I believed. He went back to his room, took off his shirt, and smirked at me.“You are such a naughty boy, Axell”“I miss you, baby”He wrapped himself with the bed cover, and I did too.“I miss you too, Axell”“I swear I wish I was next to you..”“Don't you say anything weird? I am on the bed with Logan”“Co
AVERY’s POVI quickly stood up from my chair in shock and stared at Mrs Morgan.When she dropped the call, she stared at me and looked at Billy.“What is wrong, Mrs Morgan? Please, talk to me”“Miss Avery.. Miss Avery.. The school..”“Yes, I am listening, what happened? What is wrong? Please, talk to me, ma'am”“My husband..”She stood up but staggered, and fell to the ground.I pulled her back up and stared at her curiously.“What is wrong, ma'am?”“My husband said he saw a written letter in Billy’s bag..”“Yeah, what about it? What happened?”I was so anxious that I wished I could read her thoughts.“The context of the letter is someone convincing Billy to abort the pregnancy..”“Why would a letter like that be in her bag..”I immediately opened my mouth in shock, when I realized where she was driving at.Wait, does this mean the father of Billy’s child is someone from school? But that is not possible. Her classmate? Would they be that dumb? “Miss Avery, I think the monster who mad
AVERY’s POVI know that voice. Oh, God? I know that voice.I didn't turn around, but the footsteps kept getting louder.“Avery.. I.. I was in doubt when I first saw you earlier in the morning. It was you, right?”Slowly I turned around and tears immediately gathered on my eyelids. God, we didn't talk about this. Why all of a sudden? What is he doing here?“Avery, can you hear me? It's been so long.. How..”I lifted my hand and he immediately kept quiet.“Don't you dare speak to me”I turned around, but he held my hand.With rage in my eyes and body, I turned around and slapped him heavily on the face.“How dare you touch me! You piece of shit! Stay away from me”“Avery, please, listen to me”“Shawn! Don't you dare ever lay a finger on me again! Never!”I decided to walk back to the ward, but he kept following me.When I got close to Billy’s wardroom. I turned around and looked back at him. Shawn has always been my biggest mistake. I always prayed at times begging God to keep me off
AVERY’s POV(FOUR DAYS LATER)“We are so grateful, Teacher. You have been with us since this incident occurred. We are indebted to you, Miss Avery”I nodded and Hugged her.“I promise you that we will find the person who did this to her, okay? Just put your mind at rest, and trust me”“Why would anyone do this to such a little girl? Why? Why! Did I fail as a mother to teach my daughter the ways of life?”“Do not blame yourself, Mrs Morgan, please, and please stop crying”I pulled her back into Billy’s ward. Billy wrote down a suicide note. She apologized to me and her parents. She said she could not face the shame of being a pregnant student, so she would rather end her life. She said the father of the child had stopped answering her calls, and whenever he saw her, he avoided her. She took in poison, but luckily her father found and brought her to the hospital before the poison entered her veins and blood. It was a close call, but the doctors were able to flush it out from her bod
