"Well, pick it up already!" Josey yelled almost splitting my hair in her excitement."What do you want now?" I answered angrily putting the on speaker to satisfy Josey."Oh sweetie, that's no way to talk to your brother-in-law. Hope you're ready?" Rossi's voice came through.I looked at Josey through the mirror. Her once lit up face had turned into visible disgust.She looked at me and mouthed, "Is that Rossi?"I nodded back in response."Are you ready?" Rossi roared, causing me to flinch."You said you'll pick me up by ten, right?" I asked, trying to muster courage so he doesn't sense that something was amiss. "No sweetie. I'll be too busy decorating my cute face and body. My boys will come pick you up. And don't you worry, no one will touch you before I do." He said the last sentence like it was a threat."We'll see at ten then. Bye!" I said and quickly hung up.I didn't want to act too scared or too confident and give myself away."Rossi, right? That's why you weren't smiling aft
*AUTHOR'S POV*"Hey." Gabby chuckled nervously."You look amazing. Even more hotter than any other chick Leone ever picked."For some reason, Gabby felt bad on hearing that Leone has had other girls in his life. Probably disappointed that he didn't practice celibacy like she did. Or probably scared that other girls would interfere in their marriage.But on second thought, what did it matter?It was a sham marriage, right?"Thank you." Gabby muttered amidst all the thoughts racing through her head."Well, shall we?" Alfred offered opening the door and pointing inside the car.Gabby's gown was not a big and heavy white material which she had to lift before getting into the car.Rather, it was a V-cut knee-length gown with blue flowery designs.The wedding venue was just twenty minutes away from Gabby's home and it was exquisite.For a sham marriage, Leone really threw money on this Hall.It wasn't a storey building but it was quite tall. The Hallways carried vases adorned with a variety
"But that would be absurd, wouldn't it? You both are supposed to march into the Hall and not just emerge from one of its changing rooms. Why don't we rather go to an eatery or bar or something and have ourselves relax there until it's time?" Alfred objected, to the delight and relief of Gabby."Fine." Leone conceded.She couldn't bear to think of spending more than thirty minutes in a closed space with this man. She had escaped this one. But what about tonight? The wedding night?"Yeah sure. We'll be waiting outside, by the car." Josey said pulling Gabby by the arm out of the Hall."Why did you do that?" Leone whispered."Do what? And why the hell are you whispering? They're gone already." Alfred said the last sentence with a chuckle."Why did you object to what I said?""The lady is already very uncomfortable around you. Give her some time to be free with you before trying to... you know?" Alfred said with a wink."I don't care whether she's comfortable or not. You of all people shou
And there Rossi was. Glaring at her and fuming. Turning back, Leone was fake smiling to yet another business colleague again. He still had no idea what about to happen.What the hell had she gotten herself into?She looked at Josey and knew that she was already minus one in her state.With the rush of adrenaline through her body, she turned around and instinctively charged towards the table where Leone sat waiting impatiently and yelled,"Rossi is here!" She had ran so fast that even Rossi didn't notice until Leone was alerted.He charged towards her as well and out of fear, Gabby hugged Leone tightly, pressing air out of his lungs. She found it difficult to breathe believing that this would be her last day.How did Rossi even find out about all of this?He wasn't supposed to find out until after the wedding, right?Could it be that an insider alerted him?Luckily, just before Rossi could lay his hands on her, Leone had outsmarted him by signalling his bouncers to hold Rossi back.
It had been a long day for the newlyweds and even more stressful for the bride as she figured out that the contract that Leone had signed was nothing but a showoff. Merely something to convince her into marrying him. Leone stopped his car in front of a tall, black building which from Gabby's guess, was Leone's house. Who paints their house black?There were so many rooms in that mansion so why would Leone want her to sleep in the same room as himself?Gabby watched as he searched around the car for something. Wasn't he supposed to horn and let the security open the gate? What was he looking for?A gun maybe?It would be better off for her if he uses it to shoot her then."Finally." Leone muttered as he held a remote in his hand. He pressed a button and the gate slowly started moving to the side.Leone drove the car straight into the house and tapped another button on the remote causing the gate to close on it's own.Leone turned the car off, got out and started walking towards the ho
Gabby was yet to get out of the shock she was in when her phone rang. She picked and it was Josey,"Hello? I'm so sorry I didn't realize when you left. I was drunk and I started feeling nauseous so I went to the restroom and by the time, I was back, Alfred told me everything that had happened. I'm so sorry I wasn't there. How are you now?" Gabby couldn't help but cry. Now, she really missed her best friend and her Dad and all she wanted was a hug."Gabby, are you crying? Who hurt you?""He... he was going to... he was going to rape me!" Gabby said, still crying."Who was going to rape you? Tell me!""Leone. He was never going to abide by the contract. He was about to rape me!""But he's your husband Gabby. He can't possibly be charged for rape.""Define rape. Rape is forceful sex, yeah? He was about to do that before his phone rang and he ran out. I'm going to run away. I can't do this. Marrying Martini would have been better, I tell you.""Calm down. I don't think it's all that bad.
She shut the door tightly and pushed it with all her weight as if someone was going to barge in."He'll come back. He'll definitely come back to finish what he started." She kept making a mental note in an attempt to get herself ready for whatever was coming.She ran back to the bathroom, took off her towel and began to take an actual shower with the cold, freezing water. Gabby scrubbed her body like there was stubborn dirt stuck on it that had been there for years. She felt very dirty after Leone touched her and with tears in her eyes, all she could do was scrub herself until she sustained a bruise on her left arm. The left arm that Leone had tightly grabbed when he pushed her on the bed. She rinsed herself clean with the cold water which left goosebumps on her skin as she was freezing. Her body was cold but her mind wasn't even focused on that. She wanted to escape, she wanted to make Leone suffer, she wanted revenge, she wanted to die, she wanted to go back to her former way of li
"What do you mean?""Come on. This way." She walked ahead of her until she got to a room with closed but not locked doors."What's in there? I hope it's not a trap to kill me or something?""I liked you before I even met you. I would never plan to kill you. Go inside and see for yourself. I'll be right here in case you need anything." The maid said.Gabby, still skeptical about how awkwardly friendly the maid was insisted that she come inside with her."Okay ma'am. If you say so." The maid said and pushed the doors open to let Gabby in.As soon as she stepped inside, cold air from an air conditioning welcomed her already cold skin. She shivered and rubbed along her arms with her palms while blowing air out of her lungs."I'm sorry. I'll turn that off." The maid said, noticing she was cold."Thank you." Gabby replied and took a look around.There were balloons hanging from the ceiling.Balloons that spelt,"Welcome Gabriella."Was she the one?The room was huge and so was the bed. Her f
On getting home, Leone went straight to Gabby's room. The door was slightly open and she was sobbing on her bed.He let himself in and overheard her lying face down on her bed, cursing herself,"Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Josey warned me. I was so dumb! What do I tell Leone, my parents and the whole world? How could I have been so stupid!""That makes two of us." Leone said, sitting on the bed."What are you doing here?""I did some very stupid things for love too. I feel very dumb whenever I think about it.""What do you mean?" Gabby said, sniffling."Here", Leone offered his handkerchief, "Wipe it off or it'll look mess once it all dries."Gabby took the handkerchief from him and wiped her nose while looking at him for an answer."I'm not going to be the focus tonight. I want to get to the bottom of this.""You really don't have to.""Your friend, Miss Carter, told me that those aren't exactly nudes but pictured of you in a lingerie. I would have dismissed it but seeing as it bothers
"What's wrong?" Leone asked noticing the frown on Gabby's forehead."What did your ex send to you?" Leone probed further when he got no response from Gabby."I made a huge mistake. A very big one.""What mistake?" Leone asked but still got no response."When I ask a question, it's only polite you respond." Leone added.Gabby looked into his eyes. He wasn't advising her to be polite. He was demanding her to be polite.Gabby battled with the little woman in her head for the longest time. Refusing him could strain their relationship and she couldn't risk that. She was on a mission after all."The guy I used to date, Richard, just sent me photos of myself.""What kind of photos?" Leone asked, sensing that something was off and those were not just 'photos'."Nude ones." Gabby replied in the lowest voice she could muster, hanging her head."Wait, what?" Leone couldn't believe what he just heard."I'm sorry. I know I wasn't thinking straight. I was so in love with him and I really wanted him
"Did you cook this?" Leone asked, pulling the flask towards him. Gabby smirked in response. Her charm seemed to be working. He didn't exactly accept her care but he didn't refuse it either and that was enough for her at the moment. "I still don't know what you like so I just asked Maria to prepare pasta." Gabby explained, attempting to open the flask. "Stop", Leone commanded with a wave of hand. "Let's just eat out." "You can't keep eating out. It's unhealthy and you know it." Gabby scolded. "I know this place. It's not junk and they're good." Leone simply said, standing up. Gabby looked at this man who turned out to be her husband. Minutes ago, he acted like it wasn't a big deal for her to bring him food and now, he was rejecting it again. "Aren't you coming?" Leone asked just before opening. Was he inviting her? "What about the food?" "You can take that back with you. Let's go." Leone commanded. "But I want to eat it." Gabby insisted. Leone turned around and glared at he
"Did you hear?" Nathan began as soon as he walked into the house."Hear what?" Richard asked, shutting the door."Your ex, Gabriella is married!" Nathan announced."Why would I care about that?""You'd care if you knew who she married.""If you want to say something, say it.""Aren't you going to offer me something to eat or drink?" Nathan asked."If you weren't my friend, I would have asked you out of here. Can't you read the room?""What room?""Look around. I'm in debt. Most of my properties are already up for mortgage. Brittany is pregnant and my job can't even beat all my bills." Richard complained."I'm not here to listen to your petty cries and complaints. Gabriella got married to one of the most eligible bachelors in New York, Jay fucking Leone!""What?""Yes! Not even up to two months since you ditched her and she found someone better, someone hotter and even richer, someone that girls are clamouring for including your Brittany.""How did that happen?" Richard asked, remindin
The next day, Gabby woke up to the sweet scent of bacon and eggs. She wasn't sure whether Leone had left yet or not but she was determined to kick off her plan today.She brushed her mouth and walked down the Hallway in search of Leone's room because the one she was introduced to was empty. She asked a servant and he directed her to a room with two large doors just down the Hallway. Still bearing her plan in mind, she decided to visit his room in one of her shortest robes. She didn't want to appear desperate or give Leone the hint that she was up to something else she was ready to put on a lingerie.Without knocking, she flung the door open and walked inside, welcomed by Leone's empty bed but running shower.She had always been a very shy person but to successfully have her revenge, she'd have to let go of her timidity.Without making a sound or alerting Leone that someone was in his room, she sat on his King sized bed and crossed one leg on top of the other as she glanced around this
Gabby couldn't stop thinking about the craziest ideas to make Leone fall in love with her, or at least make it seem like he was in love with her.She thought of hypnosis first, then thought of voodoo but realized she wasn't strong hearted enough to do either. She was going to have to do it nature's way.Doing it naturally would mean she would have to discard the hate she feels for Leone right now. She needed to try to get close to him, reach his heart and make him fall in love with her.Again, she could take her revenge. After making him a hopeless romantic, she'd divorce him and leave him heartbroken. That's pretty sinister but it's better than trapping him with voodoo, right?Just then, her phone rang and she quickly picked once she saw the caller ID."Hello Babes. My hubby told me he was at your place earlier. Sorry, I couldn't come too. Your jerk of a husband wouldn't spare me with all his work but he keeps giving Stephanie multiple work days off. I seriously don't know what he s
Leone looked at Gabby as if pleading with her not to tell her Dad what happened few minutes ago."That's not what I mean Dad.""Is he treating you properly, Gabriella Presley?" Her Dad asked again."I'm not saying he isn't. It's just that you think a luxurious house means happiness and that's how mum thinks. You don't have to worry about me. I'm fine and if I'm not fine, I'll be fine. It's a promise." Gabby replied."I'm really sorry. I didn't realize. Please, tell me if you're facing any issues in this house and I promise to take care of it immediately." Daniel said, glaring at Leone."It's fine Dad. I'm married now. Whatever I face here is my battle. I'll deal with it." Gabby assured with a smile while peeking into the room Leone just showed her Dad."I told you that wasn't my room." Leone whispered to Gabby.Was that supposed to comfort her? He still cheated and nothing can change that. It doesn't matter where he did it. Hell, she didn't care if he did it on the roof.Daniel stared
"No, no. Josey gave me this address and I just wanted to see how my little girl is doing. And I can see she's doing greater than I thought." Daniel said, caressing his daughter's cheek."Please don't go yet, Dad." Gabby pleaded."How can I leave already? I just got here. Don't cry so much, you know I'm always with you." Her dad reassured."Sir, please sit down. I'll ask the maids to get something for you." Leone urged and turned around to see Ashlyn glaring at him.Her glare turned into a seductive stare when she saw Gabby's father.Her dress left little to the imagination as she sauntered towards Leone."Hey Baby. Why did you leave me all alone in the room?" Ashlyn said, holding onto Leone's shoulders from behind and pouting."Who is she?" Daniel, who had barely settled into his seat asked.Gabby could not contain it anymore. She had said Leone was free to do whatever he wanted and she wouldn't care but right now, Ashlyn was doing this in front of her father. She had tried to put up
Leone stood there, staring at Gabby wide-eyed at the realization of what he had just done."Come on daddy. She'll leave. Please don't stop." Ashlyn moaned from the bed, rubbing her clit furiously.Gabby looked at her and with every cum that dripped from her pussy, tears left Gabby's eyes. It pained her to finally conclude that every man was just like Richard. She was beginning to think Leone was different."And to think I thought you were different." Gabby said as she ran back to her room.Leone was about to follow her when Ashlyn held him back,"You'd better continue. I'm still very horny and so are you." Ashlyn said pointing at his dick."Get the fuck away from me." Leone said, pushing her away."I have all this on recording. So if you wouldn't want to go viral, come fuck me like your life depends on it Mr. Leone." Ashlyn threatened.Leone laughed as he picked up his pants and began to wear them."Even pornstars get married and live decent lives Ashlyn. Go do whatever you want. I do
