The Don's Embrace 22
Whatever else may be shaken, there are some facts established beyond warring: virtue is better than vice, truth is better than falsehood, kindness than brutality. ~Quintin HoggCharlotte"Anthony!" I called after him but he didn't bother looking back at me or stopping.I stared at his retreating figure till he disappeared down the hall and I sighed.'Now you've pissed him off' my subconscious reprimanded."But then again, it’s not like I was wrong-" I scoffed only to realize I was talking to myself.Huffing, I went back to the pool area to get my laptop but I didn't find it. I asked all the guards and staff if they had seen it and all of them gave me same answer, 'NO'I kept searching and searching till my mind drifted to that one human being who was most likely having it.'Anthony Santoro’Annoyed as to why he would walk out on me earlier and still have the guts to take my things, I marched to his room but it was empty so I went to the next possible place he could be, his office.Wh

Your world is a living expression of how you are using and have used your mind.~Earl Nightingale Charlotte"I didn't know perverted females existed." Anthony spoke with his already deep husky voice become deeper and huskier making my insides clench."Huh?" I whispered to myself.Chuckling, he started coming closer and closer to me but with every step forward he took, I took one backwards, well at least until my back hit the kitchen island. In a flash, Anthony was in front of me and he placed his hands on either sides of the island trapping me."Look at me." He commanded and I couldn't help but do as told, my eyes averted and met his piercing blue orbs, I swear I felt like he was looking into my soul and him towering over my tiny figure wasn't helping at all, I felt so small and insignificant compared to him.He lowered his head until his breath was fanning my face. He pushed some strands of hair behind my ear and while at it, his cold hand grazed my skin. Immediately my eyes flutter

It doesn’t matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions. ~Jim Rohn Anthony I hated chasing people, I hadn’t done so in the longest time, it made me feel like I was some toddler or dog playing fetch the stick, I didn’t want to chase her around but I needed to get the video Charlotte was talking about, I couldn’t have the people in the mafia world seeing it, they wouldn't see me the same again, hell they wouldn't even fear or give me respect like before and to make matters worse, my little brother, cousins and friends would taunt me for the rest of my life. Just the thought of being the laughing stock at every family gathering drove me insane and there was no way in hell I was going to let that happen.Focusing on catching Charlotte who I had to admit was a fast runner than I had perceived her to be, she slipped but held onto the kitchen

Dedicate yourself to the good you deserve and desire for yourself. Give yourself peace of mind. You deserve to be happy. You deserve delight. ~Mark Victor HansenCharlotteI angrily straightened my hair after I had taken a cold shower to help get rid of the ache between my legs. Anthony and I were so close, I was so close to getting what I've been wanting since I was only 7 years old and two men just had to ruin it.Even though the water had helped control my urge to have Anthony there again, I knew it would be back again when I set my eyes on him. And only he could fix that which was a bummer because he kept being an asshole every chance he got.Finally finishing and pulling my hair into a ponytail, I got out of the bathroom and placed on a pair of a short denim shorts and tank top. Since the weather today was a bit chilly, I got the grey hoodie I had gotten from Anthony's closet and pulled it over my head. I then sat on my bed and my encounter with Anthony in the kitchen replay in

The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desires bring weak results, just a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat. ~Napoleon Hill Charlotte"You 3 really are useless." I groaned looking at the men seated in their barstools each busy on his phone."You offered to cook no one forced you to do it." Anthony answered without even looking at me."We could have ordered instead you know." Julio added."You are just as much an asshole as these bastards." I snarled at him and he simply shrugged before turning back to his phone."They are both fine. Yes, fortunately it was just false alarm." Luis spoke on the phone. "You are on speaker now." He said before removing his phone from his ear and placed it on the island."Anthony, Charlotte." Alessandro's called through the speaker."Hey!" I shouted, eyes focused on the vegetables I was cutting."Hello papa." Anthony greeted."Are you both alright?" Mum asked worry evident i

Live your life and forget your age ~Norman Vincent PealeCharlotte "OK guys I'm leaving." Luis spoke when we finished watching the movie he had demanded we watch together."So soon?" I frowned, he might have been an arrogant asshole but he was fun to be around."Unfortunately, I’d have loved to stay but I've got a flight to catch and plenty of pending work." He pouted."Oh, what do you do?" I asked curiously."He works for me." Anthony smirked."Thought as much." I rolled my eyes, everyone I knew seemed to work for this man."Anyways, it's been nice meeting you Luis not withstanding of you arrogance.""Arrogance." He gasp dramatically putting his hand over his chest."Yes arrogance, you are very arrogant just like your asshole best friend." I stated and he laughed."It was a pleasure to finally meeting you again Charlotte." He gave me a genuine smile before glancing at Anthony. "I enjoyed spending my day with you, I should pop by more often.""Likewise." I smiled

True success is overcoming the fear of being unsuccessful. ~Paul SweeneyAnthony"Where were you?" Charlotte huffed angrily walking up to me."Last I checked, I told you not to wait up." I responded and went into the bathroom taking a nice cold shower.When I got out, I went into my closet and put on my pyjamas bottoms before going back into the room that was lit by the moonlight emanating from the open curtains."Who is she?" Charlotte sighed."I beg your pardon?" I turned to face her."Her, who is she, what's her name?" She got up from the edge of the bed were she was seated and stood in front of me."What are you talking about?" I huffed not really in the mood to bicker."The woman you've been seeing.""Are you high or something." I felt her forehead but her temperature was normal. "Have you been smoking?""Of course not!" She snapped."You are bipolar." I rolled my eyes."Is she prettier than me?" Her frown deepened.I opened my mouth to respond but before anything could be said,

Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. ~Ralph Waldo EmersonCharlotteMorning came and I pulled myself off the bathroom floor where I had spent the night. Groaning at the pounding headache I was experiencing, I took a look at myself in the mirror, with my hair that was now in its natural curls littering my face and big bags under my red swollen eyes I was a mess. The events of last night were still replaying on my mind and that made my eyes glossy with tears."It's time to move on Charlotte, just let him go." I told myself and took a few deep breaths.Taking a shower, I brushed my teeth, applied my makeup and dried my hair letting it rest in its natural curly state before going to my closet to pick an outfit that looked presentable.It was only Wednesday so I decided to wear cream pants and a white button down, I finished the outfit with black heels and a purse.

"It’s not about being perfect. It’s not about where you get yourself in the end. There’s power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice." "Becoming" — Michelle Obama. "She's beautiful, isn't she?" Anthony spoke as the waiter was pouring more wine into my glass, he was not the same one that had attended to us earlier. "Pardon?" He replied turning to face him. "I asked you if she was beautiful." He repeated calmly. “That was my question.” "Y-Ye-yes she is." The man stuttered looking scared under Anthony's threatening yet calm glare. “Name?” “Sir?” The waiter stared at Anthony as he tried to comprehend what he was asking of him "Your name, What is your name?" He clarified. "I-I- Ivan, m-my name is Ivan." "Well Ivan, I strongly suggest you stop drooling over what doesn’t belong to you, she's mine and you will never not even in your dreams have her or meet her standards." He seethed. "Anthony-" I narrowed my eyes at hi

"Technique and ability alone do not get you to the top; it is the willpower that is most important."~Junko Tabei-Charlotte-"Aah-" I moaned into his mouth as he kept his thick fingers in and out of my soaked pussy not once breaking out heated kiss."Fuck princess." He groaned pulling away and beginning to suck the nape of my neck."Elio!" I practically screamed no longer able to suppress my cries of pleasure. I shamelessly rocked my hips against his fingers while my shaky hands grabbed his face to meet mine with his icy orbs that were now a darker shade from lust, he stared at me."I need you." I told him in barely a whisper and I expected him to do exactly that, he was just as horny as I was, or maybe I was wrong, maybe I had read all the emotions in his eyes wrongly because instead of taking down the expensive black material that stood between us, he instead completely pulled away from my body and smirked."Elio." I let out still trying to catch my breath as I looked at him in utt

"We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated." ~ Maya Angelou-Charlotte-"Anthony." I stuttered swallowing the lump in my throat.“Hey princess.” He smiled stepping further into the room and shutting the door behind him. Judging from his smile, I took it that he had not heard my conversation with the girls with him as the main topic of discussion.“Guys I’ll speak to you later.” I spoke into the phone and hang up quickly before they could say anything that could make the situation awkward. I knew my friends and how blunt they could be sometimes, Ingrid especially, she had such a diahriour mouth sometimes.I internally groaned at the realization that they had overheard Anthony refer to me as princess, I knew for a fact they would tease about it me now. Pressing the power button and watching the screen go black, I placed my phone screen first on the table in front of me.“Yes.” I turned to face him again.“Who were you talking to?” He quizzed.“Ingrid and Paula.” I answ

The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do. ~Thomas JeffersonCharlotte"Hey." I beamed when I saw Riley and Taylor who stood in the living room. Giving each of them a hug."Are you OK?" They asked worry written all over their faces."Yeah." I nodded. "What happened?" Taylor grabbed my gauze covered wrist."It's just a little bruises from Anthony holding them too tight." I assured them. "I'm fine really.""I'm so sorry." Riley sighed eyes filled with guilt. “This was all my fault.”"No it wasn’t, you didn’t have a gun pointed to my head forcing me to go with you. I snuck out on my own and these are the consequences, plus on the bright side I had fun." I smiled playfully pinching her cheeks."Kaleb!" I called and almost immediately he came. "Have someone serve the snacks I just made and bring it to the pool area." I told him."That's not-" He b

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.~Thomas EdisonCharlotte"I snuck out, I'm sorry." I choked out while Anthony squeezed my throat making it difficult for me to take in oxygen."You snuck out." He repeated slowly."Yes, I'm sorry.""You will be sorry when I'm finished with you." He seethed tightening his grip on my throat."You are hurting me." My eyes becoming teary with each passing second. "Elio." I sobbed when he didn't let go.As if taken aback, he let go and took a step away from me.I brought my now red and swollen wrist up to my chest sobbing, it was throbbing badly and happened to be one of the four reasons I was now crying my eyes out, firstly, I felt like a dirty slut, secondly, I was afraid of what Anthony would do to me, I had never seen him so angry before and that petrified me. Thirdly, I felt like I had let him down and because of that, he would never like me again and lastly, I couldn't bottle up my emotions an

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. Accordingly, a 'genius' is often merely a talented person who has done all of his or her homework. ~Thomas EdisonAnthony "Where the fuck is she!" I yelled at my men who were staring at me, fear evident in their eyes. "I swear if you don't bring her down here I'll blow all your brains out!"“Don calm down." Julio tried to calm me but that only fueled my anger.It had been a long week and the last thing I needed was to find Charlotte had gone missing when I got home. I had been dealing with a lot of unnecessary issues that would have not even occurred had everyone followed my instructions but as always, someone just had to make a mistake which only I could rectify and now I was paying for being away for so long."Shut the fuck up!" I growled at him. "How the hell can a girl sneak past all your grown asses, all of you, it’s just one girl for fucks sake!"“We are sorry Don.” One of the guards mumbled."Put Marcus o

Build a dream and the dream will build you. ~Robert H. SchullerCharlotte"Chug! chug! chug! chug!" The girls cheered as I chugged down vodka as though it was water ignoring the burning on my throat."Fuck" I put the bottle on the counter unable to take any more."Wow!" The girls cheered."It's my turn." Taylor grabbed the bottle and put it to her lips while we cheered her on."Wooow!" She screamed handing the bottle to Riley who did the same.We had been drinking for a while now and judging from how much we had taken and none of us had started going crazy yet, I could tell we were highly tolerant to alcohol which was a great thing by the way."Men are stupid." Riley complained."Tell me about it." We all groaned.So turns out, all of us were having male drama."I hate the way they think we can always bend to their will and suck them off when the demand." Riley rolled her eyes."I know right, I hate the power they possess." Taylor groaned"Let's just forget about those useless stuck

Build a dream and the dream will build you. ~Robert H. Schuller CharlotteEverything happened so fast, one minute I was backing away from Anthony and in the next he was kissing me roughly, my brain was just finding it difficult to digest everything. I tried to push him off but that only seemed to piss him off more, he grabbed my thighs placing my legs around his waist with one hand while the other wrapped around my throat. His actions made my lady bits clench and my panties dampen.I was so caught up with his that was slightly chocking me that I missed him untucking my shirt from my pants until he bit hard on my lower lip as though asking for entrance. I gladly opened my mouth and let his tongue devour me. The kiss became heated and intimate quicker than I thought, I was struggling to keep up with Anthony’s pace but tried my best to savor his the divine taste mouth.Breathless, I found the energy to push him away, but he wasn’t having it, I tugged at his thick loc
