He remembered how many days she spent crying and mourning over her brother's death and his heart ached for her. Just then she stirred in her sleep and subconsciously whispered. "Will Elpidio also come back?"She seemed to be in a dream state and didn't really realize when she had said that. She became still again and Armando sighed. She had him but didn't have a family anymore and he knew that was what hurt her the most. But he wanted to be her all now. Her family.And with that, he sent a text to Luca and Lorenzo telling them to meet him at a bar not too far away from Lorenzo's company. He wanted to talk to them about something important.Once the text was sent, he slipped his phone back into his pocket and went back to his room, carrying the sleeping beauty in his arms.The next day...Leonor walked out of the room, hurrying down the stairs. Her slippers hit the heels of her feet as she held the rail, trailing her hands on it. Armando was already downstairs when she got there. Arma
"Let's go. We'll have plenty of time. I don't want to ruin my makeup," Leonor said.The truth is that Leonor didn't care about the makeup. She was just shy. Isabella was still inside, the same with the stylist and makeup artist. The last thing she would want is someone walking up on them.Armando entwined his hands with hers. "Let's go," he said and led her out.Armando walked her to the car. He had prepared the biggest surprise for her. A car was waiting for them at the entrance. Armando opened the door for her to step in before walking around to sit beside her. The car drove off. "Why send a makeup artist and a stylist, is it that you didn't trust my style? And you picked over twenty gowns for her to pick from." Leonore complained."What? Not satisfied with the princess treatment you were given?" Armando asked her a small smile on his lips. Armando's eyes met with the driver's eye from the mirror and he quickly averted his gaze. Armando was peering at Leonore. Undoubtedly she looked
The timing couldn't have been more perfect. She had insisted that the wedding ceremony take place in a small gathering, and thankfully, her soon-to-be husband embraced the idea with the same fervor that he embraced her. So there she stood, her heart brimming with gratitude, as she basked in the sun's beautiful glow."You seem radiant." Leonor heard his muscular voice behind her as he possessively hugged her from behind. "Armando stop it... We're in a public place." Leonor complained."No, we are choosing our wedding outfits and you are not paying attention anymore." He complained. She gave him a little sorry look causing a huge grin to spread across his features.His gaze suddenly darkened as he leaned in closer. "Are you possibly... Thinking about our wedding night." Leonor felt her whole being turn stiff as she heard him say that. She angrily pushed him away but he was so strong that he didn't budge. "So dirty." Leonor scolded but he chuckled even louder."Look at this one, Miss!"
Armando slid in and out of her slowly curving his fingers, it was a gentle motion not to be rushed, he muffled down her moans with a kiss, she pulled him towards her aggressively taking his shirt off, he stopped her midway and held her hands back, she whispered helplessly at him but he wasn't done.Leonore was not okay, she had planned to just tease him and run away but she should have known better, her legs vibrated and spasmed at his fingers, he looked down at her with a mischievous grin "You're too loud" he says, fuck does he mean she was too loud, just as she was about protesting he slid in a second finger, she gasped without thinking, he knew exactly what he was doing. She shouldn't have teased him in the first place.Armando's fingers started vibrating gently "No no no no please stop" Leonor pleaded with him, she wasn't ready to cum on the bed but he didn't stop regardless of that, her legs shuddered, her back arched she couldn't keep it in anymore, she wanted him and she wanted
“Make sure you keep track of him.” Armando gritted on the phone while walking into his office.“Yes Sir.”“We're keeping eyes on him, Sir, he just arrived at his old family house.” Antonio, one of his trusted made men informed and Armando wished he was there at the moment to blow the traitor's head off with his gun.He was after the man named Elpidio who had run out of the country when he failed to return the huge sum of money he borrowed from him, but great news got to him that Elpidio was sighted at his family's house, and he couldn't wait to finish off the bastard.Armando was not one to show mercy, he had always been known for being ruthless, and stone-hearted… He was the devil, Lucifer-incarnated himself, and no one dares mess with him. No one! Unless they are toying with their freaking lives.Armando plans to kill Elpidio immediately he sets his eyes on him, and the thought of it makes him hunger and crave to see the sight of blood dripping from Elpidio's head and flooding the f
"I'll talk to him okay," Elpidio spoke in agony, knowing too well that was a death statement."Have you gone nuts, Elpidio?" Leonor was startled with widened eyes."I can't keep running for my entire life," Elpidio frustrated, brushed his hair to the back. He could see the worried look his sister had on her face for him."We all know that the man you're dealing with is a dangerous man," Leonor reasoned. She was scared something bad might happen to her brother if he didn't go into hiding again."I know okay! I have a quarter of the money already, I would beg him to allow me some more time to get the rest," Elpidio said, perturbed."This is all my fucking fault!" He cried, banging his fist on the wall. Leonor's eyes softened, moving close to her brother and held his hands in hers."It's okay." She calmed him, by stroking his back."I should have listened to you, I was such a fool to have invested in that spurious business," He bawled, blaming himself."Shhh! It's okay, everything will b
"Leave him alone, you bastard!" Leonor screamed venomously, with hatred lacing each of her words."Leonor!" Elpidio whimpered, his face pale as fear took control over him.Everyone was shocked, even the devil himself was amazed as they stared at his sister."You're a monster, a devil, don't you have mercy at all?" Leonor screamed at the top of her voice as rage filled her.Armando's eyes sparked with fire, but he kept to himself as he fisted his hands. It's a thing he could have shot her to silence her, but he was quite interested in whom this lady was and where she got her boldness from.No one dares speak to him in that manner, and he was amused to find a new discovery. If he must comprehend, he had applauded her for her bravery.Some guts she had right there...Leonor just broke the world record by shouting at the most dangerous man, everyone would have cowered for and hid under their blanket at the mention of his name.Elpidio had never seen his sister so bold in his entire life,
Leonor wasn't fazed by his anger, his dark and dangerous aura didn't mean anything to her, as her whole being just wanted to make sure her brother was safe. She glared fiercely at Armando, and he was taken aback once more by her audacity, he wondered if she was just clueless as to who he was, or if she was being stupid."Look here, I only agreed to follow you because of my brother. So if you do anything to Elpidio, then I promise I will—" Armando finally had enough of her and grabbed her fiercely by the chin. His nails dug mercilessly into her skin, and she couldn't help but cry at how much her cheeks stung."Listen, girl, you don't get to make threats. Hell! You don't even get to speak. So if you dare to utter one more word, I promise I'll tie you to this car and drive it all the way to the next town, you hear me?" The seriousness in his tone told Leonor that he wasn't bluffing, and so she managed to nod her head slowly while more tears streamed down her cheeks.Armando's eyes flicke

Armando walks over to the door and opens it to find Lorenzo there. "Hey. I came to check up on her." Lorenzo said and Armando nodded in understanding. He moves away for Lorenzo to come in and Leonor smiles upon seeing him. "Hey, Leonor.... you okay?" He asked."Yeah, I guess I'm fine. I just still have that ache in my leg and won't be able to move for a while but, I'm better." She said with a sigh."Good, good." He said and she could easily tell he was holding himself back from asking something. "What is it, Lorenzo?" She asked after watching him struggle for a while."Well..... about your brother." He said hesitantly. "It's fine. He made a mistake and I feel I've cried enough now. I'm still hurt whenever I think of him but, God knows best right?" She said and Lorenzo nodded fondly."You'll be okay," Lorenzo said stroking her hair. "Yeah, I will. I have Armando and you and Luca." She said with a smile. "Yes, you do."Armando was in the background watching all of this play out. And fo
He was followed by a squad of similarly garbed and armed men moving swiftly and purposefully to secure the area and confirm the dead. Armando's face was over her in a heartbeat. He looked over her with a cold analytical dispassion. But she never felt more loved or seen. She felt the pain then, burning in her leg. She began to scream."Hey!" He shouted. "She's been shot!"Leonore was safely stowed in the car as it sped away. Armando turned to face Luca then."I'm sorry." He said, pain thick in his voice."I could have died today. Everything would have been for nothing.""It was pretty fucking stupid to go off like that," Luca replied, a matter of fact. "We all knew it was a fucking trap."He turned to look at Armando."What does this girl have on you to make you so reckless? If we couldn't take out those snipers when we did you won't fucking be here! Do you understand that?" He was yelling now. Luca visibly forced himself to calm down."I know Luca," Armando said, collapsing to sit on th
" Where the fuck are you, fucking piece of shit.""Armando." Gastone's response came over the speaker, his voice coming through the whole complex."I have something you want. Give me what I want and we can both walk out of this place happier for it."The mall it seems was not as dead as it seemed. Gastone would have had a generator brought in to power the PA system. He'd had time to prepare this and not alone.This was an ambush.The first tough resolved out of the shadow of one of the huge columns supporting the upper levels and the glass roof three stories above spanning the courtyard. The dark storm clouds visible above occluding the moonlight, allowing only the infrequent glare of lightning to throw dancing shadows across the yard. It was out of these two other hulking forms that emerged from either flank."These fine gentlemen are here to make sure you're well-behaved..."Armando leveled his gun at the first thought opposite him and two Identical weapons seemed to spawn in the han
Now Armando and Brandon were staring at each other. Brandon was shaking, scared. Armando spoke, his voice calm but deadly. "I've let you go times and times before Brandon, because of our past. But not this time." Brandon knew he was in real trouble. He grabbed a gun and hid behind Leonor, pressing the gun to her head. "Now move, Armando, or I'll shoot her!" Armando looked at him, not worried at all. "Go ahead," he said.Leonor couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Armando!" she cried out, a mix of surprise and hurt in her voice. Brandon was angry and scared. "I'm not playing games! I'll do it!" Armando raised his own gun, pointing it right at Leonor. "Then do it, or I will," he said.Leonor was mad. Really mad. She used that anger to kick Brandon hard, right between his legs. He fell, crying out in pain. At that moment, Williams and the others barged in. They stopped, shocked at what they saw. "Master, forgive us for not being fast enough. Brandon had stationed a lot of men at th
Leonor sat on the cold floor, her mind racing. She had to get out of this place before she became a pawn in yet another one of these cruel games. She would never be used as Armando's weakness, she didn't want to play damsel in distress.She got up quietly and tiptoed to the door. Her hand was on the knob when it turned on its own, and the door swung open. The hooded man was standing there, his expression unreadable."Going somewhere?" he asked, blocking her path. Leonor took a step back, her heart pounding. "I... I was just looking for the bathroom," she lied.He didn't move. "The bathroom's not this way." She sighed, knowing she had to try another approach. She looked at him, really looked, and saw something in his eyes that didn't match the rough exterior. "You don't seem like the kind of guy who does this sort of thing," she said softly.He seemed taken aback. "What do you mean?" He asked. "I mean, you don't look like you fit in with the mafia, with criminals," Leonor pressed on,
