~D.J
Third person P.O.V:
Gloria was quick to divert the topic as soon as she noticed Valentina's nervous stature, the poor girl was already fear strickened by her son for now, she did not wanted to add more to the pile.
An hour flowed between the two of them, the empty tea cups placed carelessly on the side table as both of them lost themselves in their own little bubble.
Gloria found herself fascinated by the young girl infront of her by every passing minute. This girl was so innocent, beautiful and most of all she knew how to handle her son.
Alessandro was always a troublemaker but his tendencies never led to someone being hurt. Gloria was shocked when she found out about her son's behaviour towards his wife, although Christine did assure her that

The Agreement 49. Antonio's Revenge
"I still taste the past"~UNKNOWNThe past few days have been.. I don't know how to put it. A lot of emotions have been shared between me and Alessandro.After he acted like a possessive brute it was clear that shifting to another room was out of the picture but that didn't keep me from maintaining a distance between us.But who am I kidding, this is my husband we are talking about. He knows how to pave his way through my walls.I was surprised.The amount of patience he showed when I blatantly ignored him or sometimes mildly disrespected him infront of his men. I had this small flame inside me that wasn't ready to burn off not until I make him feel even a quarter of my previous pain.Well it wasn't successful, I couldn't continue ignoring him.I was weak.

"But who knows, maybe one day we'll be perfect for each other"~UNKNOWNDarkness again!How ironic, I've been finding myself in the darkness every other day or was I always in the dark but now it is when I realise it?I hear faint sounds around me, they are slow at first but grow loud and clear as I find myself getting more and more aware of my surroundings.I slowly flutter my eyes open, the sudden invading lights around me make me flinch and close them, "Valentina!?" I hear a feminine voice filled with worry.Gloria."Go call Alessandro" I hear her ordering someone, I feel a shadow above my closed eyelids, I pry my eye open again surprised to find Gloria's hands looming over my eyes sheltering them from the setting sun light.I take a moment to stare at her palms, I go over the detailed lin

"What matters most is how well you walk through the fire"~CHARLES BUKOWSKI"We are getting married.""What!?" I shriek, Alessandro puts me down on my feet but quickly intervenes our hands."Have you had him investigated?" He asks the guards ignoring my baffled form, one guard steps infront to answer "sì Capo" he nods his head. Alessandro doesn't seem satisfied by his answer.What investigation? What is he talking about? I look up at him asking him through my eyes. He just pulls me closer to him."Come here" he commands the priest in his dark voice, the room was surrounded by his dominating aura making everyone feel at edge including me.The priest looked visibly shaken, he takes slow timi

"I was never really insane except upon occasions when my heart was touched" ~EDGAR ALLEN POE"Calm down" Christine's gentle hand keeps rubbing my back as I lay my head on her lap and sob uncontrollably.It's been 15 minutes since she brought me to Gloria's room and I've been crying non-stop."H-he scared me" I hiccup shuffling to bury my head further inside her warm embrace, I need someone to hold me right now."Trust me child, he didn't mean to." She tries to assure me massaging my head, my sobs calm down as her magical fingers sooth me as always.We both stay silent for a moment "sometimes I forget how young you are, 17 still a child" she murmurs sadly.

The boss asks impatiently, Gary straightens his already rigid posture.He seemed well composed this time compared to the last time he barged inside the boss office like a headless chicken."Boss, I am working on the details but what I have gathered is that Capo was already aware of his uncle's intentions. He was playing along with his game until Antonio sputtered out everything himself" he informs.The boss motions with his fingers telling him to continue "No one knows where Antonio is, the last they saw him was being dragged by the Capo towards his warehouse" Gary visibly gulps, being dragged by the ruthless don toward

"Life's a journey, to find the people weird like you"~AtticusThird person POVAnger.Pure raw undescribable anger is what Alessandro was feeling at the moment. He was sitting at the edge of the bed, the very bed where he had left his beautiful Valentina in the morning breathless and flustered.His knuckles were bleeding profusely, the reason behind it could be seen around him. He had turned the room upside down, he punched, tore and destroyed anything and everything he could get his hands on.The only thing that calmed him a bit was the duvet in his bloody hands, the white duvet that smelled like her, he brought it near his nose and inhaled the lingering sweet scent of his woman that gave him a sense of clarity.He could vividly remember her heaving chest, her ro

"The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies"~D.S."Valentina?" Gloria whispers doubtfully in a hoarse voice, her eyes were squinted as she stared in my direction.Her eyes widened when she realised I was really there "Oh Valentina!" She cries, slowly getting up from her place on the floor.I couldn't help but concentrate on the groaning person that was tied to a chair behind her. I had found Gloria laying her head on that beaten man's lap and wailing loudly.A sudden force has me stumbling back a few steps, Gloria's unexpected hug pulls me out of my thoughts, I gaze at her as she tightens her grip around me making me encircle my arms around her as well.She was murmuring something accompanied by her cries making it hard for me to grasp her words, the situation, the b

Everything around me seems to fade away, I feel a hand gripping my hairs and tugging them harshly, my back hits a hard chest earning a surprised scream from me.I gasp out a breathe, blinking my eyes furiously, my hairs are tugged again and instinctively my hands shot up towards my head to pull away the prying hand."Leave her!"

The Agreement 64. Epilogue
"With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come"~ William Shakespeare10 years later..Alessandro's POV:"We've come so far haven't we?" Antonio says with a small satisfied smile as he closes the file I had signed seconds ago."Indeed we have uncle" I agree nodding my head slightly, "the business is flourishing, you are the first one in our generation to bring this family to where it stands today" he boosts proudly about my accomplishments.I was well aware of how much he loved to talk about how our mafioso is one of the most feared one in the world, I didn't stop him either knowing that there were only very few thin
The Agreement 63. Mrs. Romano
"After all, soulmates always end up together."~Unknown"Aida.""Hmm?" I tilt my head upwards to have a better view of Alessandro, he was deep in thoughts while stroking my hairs. "I want to name our daughter Aida." he says placing his hand on my protruding stomach."It means happiness." He kisses my forehead, explaining further.I chuckle at his words, "that is a beautiful name but how are you so sure that it's going to be a girl? What if it's a boy?" I ask curiously as I place my hand above his.This was pure bliss.Him, me and our baby. No problems, no lies, no past.. Just us, our world."If it is a boy, then we will make another one so it would be a girl" he says with a big smile as if he has it all figured out, I laugh heartedly "that's not how it works, what if the
The Agreement 62. Surprise
"The best time for new beginnings is now"~ UnknownWhat is up with this man?I couldn't help but question myself as I hold out the beautiful dress infront of me. I inspect the delicate patterns that have managed to catch my breathe, I was baffled when I laid my eyes on this dress for the first time just few moments ago.After our late lunch Alessandro demanded for me to go back to our room, as quoted by him 'I have a surprise for you upstairs.' I was actually nervous about this 'surprise'.Since I have entered Alessandro's life, the surprises I have received from him— let's say they haven't been too pleasent. I couldn't help but think that maybe there was a long lost sibling of Alessandro's that has been found and is waiting for me in the room to be introduced.Just kidding!
The Agreement 61. Waves
"Sometimes in the waves of change we find our true direction"~UnknownIt has been half and hour since the whole ordeal that had transpired between us, I was sitting on one of the comfy sofa.My mind was reeling with different thoughts, but the most prominent of them was the concern for my parents, I need to ask Alessandro about how long is he going to keep me here and find a way to contact my parents.I glance at the window, my eyes settle on a figure sitting comfortable on the sand near the sea shore, the waves come clashing together but die down just as they near him. Looks like the sea is scared of him as well. I paddle upstairs towards the bedroom in search of some suitable clothes to change into, I find a wooden chester at one corner, I pull open the first drawer and surprisingly enough I find my clothes in them.
The Agreement 60. Prove yourself
"I know my worth, I've paid dearly for every ounce of it"~ Alfa"Oh my!" I let out a breathless whisper as my eyes rake over his sturdy chest, why does he look like a fine ass meal? And why am I so hungry all of a sudden!?I clench my hands beside me as my fingers itch to trace those fine lines accunturating each peck. This man was a walking god and he knew it.I hear someone clearing there throat which quickly pulls me out of my incoming lusty thoughts, I gaze at Alessandro and find a cocky smirk etched on his stupidly handsome face.I missed this man so much! My subconscious sighs dreamily. Me too girl me too. I agree with her."Enjoying the view?" Alessandro asks in his deep voice while striding towards me, I melt at his accent but quickly compose myself "yes, the sea makes it
The Agreement 59. Maturity
"We've got to live, no matter how many skies are fallen"~D. H. Lawrence"Tina was always the ugly sibling, look at this, her running nose in this picture" Everett cackles pointing at one of my pictures in which embarrassingly enough I do have a running nose."No! I was the cute one. You resembled like a grumpy grandpa when you were born. Dad tell him" I look at dad giving him a 'please take my side' look.He looks at me nervously then back at Everett, I follow my gaze only to see Everett making the same face. Dad clears his throat "none of you were ugly or resembled like a grumpy grandpa, be-" both Everett and I groan "–cause both were beautiful children all thanks to me your handsome father's genes" he points at himself proudly.Mom scoffs rolling her eyes, we all chuckle at dad's expanses. We were currentl
The Agreement 58. Family
"Sometimes memories sneak out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks"~UnknownNothing could compare to the feeling of one's head resting on their mother's lap.Mother. A creation God created knowing fully well that the world would have been doomed without these amazing women's.I find myself thinking sometimes, how is it possible?How does the air around us suddenly calms down when we have our mother near us.How does a simple hug lifts off one's burdens from their shoulder without even uttering a word to her.How does she know when we need her soothing words or when we just need her silence with her magical touch.Guess I will have to wait to find that out myself.After months of working my brain so hard I could finally feel it relax itself by mom's
The Agreement 57. Alessandro III
"You were a risk, a mystery, and the most certain thing I'd ever know"~Beau Taplin, "A certainty"Alessandro's POV"Tutto è coperto." (Everything's covered.) Antonio informs taking away the file from me that I had just signed. I give him a nod, he knew I was grateful. I needed this break.I go over a few more things with him before heading towards the mansion, I couldn't go there directly when I arrived, I first had to get some work settled in the warehouse but now it's all taken care of.I have given away my responsibility to Antonio for some weeks, I need some time away from work so I can spend time with Valentina and maybe also convince her to marry me.I know she's stubborn a
