ELENA

I woke up to the sound of faint music coming from somewhere in the house.

The bedside clock showed that it was 11am in the morning, making my eyes widen in shock. How had I slept so late into the morning.

The last thing I could remember was Rosetta informing me that Luca had not yet returned hom, even if it was way past the bedtime of even an adult. I had allowed her persuade me into leaving the living room, and going up to my bedroom so I could sleep. And se had promised to inform me if he got back home.

That was last night.

Had he returned already and she must have just let me sleep?

I got off the bed, pulling on a silk robe over my really skimpy nightgown, and went into the bathroom, where I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I applied a little moisturizer to my face and hands, and then a small amount of lip balm, before heading out of my room.

To Luca's bedroom.

A small thrill of heaven knows what, made itself known to me, at the thought of going to his bedroom.

  • The Don’s Reluctant Obsession   Chapter 22

    LUCAAnd I did.I took her lips in the softest of kisses, covering her lips in mine, and drawing in her bottom lips.She tasted like fruit... sweet, wet, and soft.I slipped my hands around her waist, pulling her in so her body was plastered againt mine. The soft material of her robe against me was like a stimulant, teasing my skin. The raw need in me was primal, and something I had never felt before. Before meeting her.I needed to bury my cock in her pussy. I couldn't put it off any longer. The chase, the denial, the ache, it was too much. Even for me. She was my wife. Mine.Last night, after speaking to Alberto, I and Dante had gone to get some drinks, and a bimbo had made her way to me. I could have taken her. Fucked her to release all these tension inside of me, but the moment her skin had touched mine, I had realized I wanted no one else, but the woman in my arms.Elena's fingers slipped into my wet hair. She curled her fingers around a handful, and pulled tight in a way that ma

    ELENAMy eyes fluttered open ever so slowly, and I rolled over to my side on the bed that literally felt like a cloud, underneath me. My body, although I could feel some aches in my joint, hummed deliciously. I blinked, clearing my slightly blurred vision as I focused on two blue birds perching on the window, chirping adorably. The reminded me of cinderella.I blinked again, then sighed as I rolled on to my back, then stretched my sore muscles, in a bid to release the tension in them. My eyes zeroed in on the patterns on the ceiling tha looked really different from what I was used to in my bedroom.My bedroom...Memories of what I had done with Luca rushed into my mind, causing my cheeks to burn. I quickly turned to the other side, half-expecting to see Luca laying there, on the other side of the bed. But I was equally disappointed, and happy he wasn't.I lifted the sheet over me head, as more and more of the memories came.Oh dear...We had finally made love.The man had been bothe g

    ELENASmall droplets of rain hit my skin as I walked really fast, into the huge office building that belonged to my father. First off, everything in me had screamed not to indulge him and just let whatever it is he had for me be. I wasn't sure I needed anything more from the man who had gradually become a stranger to me in the past years.I smoothed my hand over my slightly damp hair, hoping to spread the moisture so it dried up faster, and nodded at the receptionist who greeted me.Behind me, I could feel and hear the presence of Samuel. Big bulky Samuel. I had spoken to Luca long enough to tell him that I had a meeting with Alberto. To which he had voice his instant disapproval, but after much begging, had finally allowed me to leave but with Samuel in tow.Speaking of Luca, he hadn't come home and had not said anything about it, when I had asked."Thank you." I murmured to Samuel as he punched the button that would take us to my father's floor. I didn't care to ask him how he knew

    ELENA"The answer is no, Elena." Luca said, even before I finished speaking.My chheks burned, from annoyance and frustration. I had come home, only for Hakeem to tell me he was waiting for me in his study. And he had been. Sitting, with his chest bare, nad his mouth stuffed with his cigar, looking every bit the dangerous don he was.And attractive as hell, but I wasn't falling for that. Not now when all I wanted to do, was wrap my hands around his neck and strangle the hell out of him."I wasn't asking for your persmission, Luca. I was simply leting you know about what I have agreed to do." I stated, matching his cold tone.Oh...two could definitely play this game. And I was more than ready to do so.To my right, both of his brothers, Alessandro, and Dante sat, quiet as hell, in the awkward tension in the air. Danted had gotten up to leave when I had entered, but Luca had waved him off, telling him that he was going to be quick, as they had far more important things to talk about.I

    ELENAI frowned as I saw every one of the De Santis men make thier way out of the house in a hurry, with Hakeem leading the way.I had in my anger, matched downstairs, and stumbled into the biggest library I had ever seen, that looked like something straight out of a fairytale movie.It was so beautiful, and filled with so many books. I had been taking a mental note of how many sections it had, when I heard the muffled sound of footsteps. And I knew I only heard it because I had left the door partially open. I hadn't bothered to go out the door to check incase I ran into Luca, and instead, went to the large window. That's when I saw all of them hastily make their way down the garden, and through a small iron gate I had never noticed before. In fact, I was sure if I hadn't seen them go through the gate, I wouldn't have realized there was anything there.Suspicion gnarled through me. And curiousity too.Why did they all look agitated, and what was through that gate that had them all r

    LUCATo say I was exhausted, was to say the least.I made my way back into the house, leaving Alessandro and Dante to deal with the mess in the west wing.Somehow, Luke had gotten a hold of a peice of broken bottle, and slit his wrist with it, killing himself. The thing that marvelled all of us was, it would have been easier for him to escape, because we had left him untied in his cell. There were many scenarios in my head about how differently the whole thing would have gone.Not just this.The plan had been to send his body back if he wsn't willing to answer any of our questions. But I wanted to do the honours myself.I nodded to Samuel who had taken a permanent postion below the staircase, but not far enough that he couldn't see Elena's door. Another thing that got on my nerves. I knew she didn't want a bodyguard, but the woman was stubborn as hell, when all I was doing was for her own protection!I made my way into my temporary bedroom that was fast becoming permanent, and went s

    ELENAThe feel of the cool floor underneath my knees was a weird sensation that only added to the thrill of what was to come.I had been testing Luca's limit when I had sent those clothes back. But even if I had known I was going to get a reaction from him, I hadn't expected it to be..this.Liquid heat gathered in between my thighs as my eyes leveled with the bulge in his trousers, and my mouth suddenly felt dry and empty.I wanted.. I wanted.... heck.. I didn't know exactly what I wanted."Eyes up here." Luca hissed, walking closer to me, and making it difficult to look up at him without tilting my neck upwards. My lips parted slightly as I took in his form which was now bigger, from my position on the ground. "Good." he reached for my chin, and cupped it, carressing my lower lips with his thumb.I could see his gaze darken, and wondered just what was going on in his head."I've been wanting to do this." Luca was saying. "...for the longest time, Elena." he stepped forward, his legs

    LUCAI stumbled into the basement room in the house, feeling mad at myself, and trying not to get lost in my thoughts until I knew I was truly alone.I peered around the room, making sure no one was in sight, before walking back to the door and locking it.There and then, I released a shuddering breath, before staggering my way towards a chair that was all too familiar to me.The softness of the old antique leather chair was like a warm embrace and I sank into it, relishing the feel of coziness it gave me.My head was heavy. My eyes hurt like hell. And my chest, it felt lik something huge was placed on it, crushing it, and almost cutting out the air in my lungs.I stayed in the position for a few moments, trying to get my breath back and block all my thoughts for as long as possible, until I couldn't anymore.The thoughts rushed in like a prisoner released into freedom.Elena.With each time I allowed my self get close to her. Something inside me gave way. And I wasn't sure I was liki

    LUCA"Mind your business, Hakeem." I hissed, pushignback the passenger seat of my car so I could stretch my long legs. I didn't even want to ask why the chair was pushed forward in the first place because I knew I wasn't going to be pleased with the answer.We were currently parked outside of a casino, waiting for our informant to give us the go ahead on whether we should go in or not.According to him, the Casino was packed with buyers, and what other way to get things running, than playing a game or two with them.But there was a particular person I needed to see."Well, you have been looking at that phone for the past three hours, and I can tell you would rather be with her, then here." Hakeem said in a sing-song voice.Dante snorted form where he sat at the backseat."Shut up." I hated when he decided to talk. I preferred him professional to the t, as he actually mostly was. But sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he behaved differently. Like now."I mean, he's not lying." Dant

    ELENAThe papers I was carrying weighed more than they were supposed to.Donavan hadn't been lying.It was true. All of it.My phone rang, shattering the silence in the car.Samuel looked at me through the rearview mirror when I didn't bother answering it and let it ring two more times.I eyed him, then turned my face to the car window, focusing on the passing buildings instead. I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone. Especially after what I had just found out.I hadn't been able to get through to Alberto, making me wonder where he had kept his phone."Are you alright, ma'am?" Samuel asked, making me look back to see him giving me a worried look through the rearview mirror."Since when did we start caring for each other, Samuel?" My tone was bored and filled with sarcasm.We never had discussions. It was always silent in the car. Sometimes, too silent.Samuel's eyes showed amusement and he peeled his gaze away, back to the road. "That's basically my job ma'am." His tone matched mine.

    ELENA"I'm really sorry for the inconvenience." Dorathy Stevenson said with an apologetic look on her face. In her hands were numerous company files.I waved my hand. "Next time just make sure things are in order, to avoid pulling me out of the house like that." I replied, not really offended, just tired.When the door had opened, I hadn't been expecting to see my assistant panting like she had run a marathon. Although I won't be suprised she if she had.None of my father's shipments had gotten the approval to pass. We had had to act really fast.Now though, I was tired as hell and just needed to go home.Who knew that a last minute decision to wear snakers, was gonna save my legs from a lot of pain.I dismissed her and began sorting through the documents in my office. I hadn't had the time to do so, and had told Dorathy not to worry about them, preferring to do them myself.Nothing beat arranging your own document and knowing where you kept what.I was head deep in a box, when I felt

    LUCAThe room was almost as silent as a grave yard, thirty minutes after I had assembled my brothers and told them of Fabio.I had intentionally left Valeria out, because I knew it would be easier to tell my sweet forgiving sister, than to tell the two men in front of me.Dante finally spoke first. "So you are telling me, that that father of yours, not only played half a role in our lives, but was able to go start up another family, with another woman?" he was angry, and rightfully so.Dante never got along very well with Martinelli, but he never bumped heads with him. He rather prefered to stay aloof.Alessandro on the other hand, followed our father like a sheep, although he did voice out his opinions when necessary.As for me...."I don't know about starting a whole family, because according to Fabio and his mother, I don''t think Martinelli was present in their lives." I had spoken to the woman who was kind enough to answer soem questions. She had told me, that she was only doing

    ELENA"You have been fiddling with that since." Valeria's voice dragged me out of my thoughts, and when her words registered, I snatched my hand from my necklace and managed a small smile.I had finally given in and worn my mum's necklace. And I hadn't been able to stop touching it.Maybe it was the closest I ever felt to her. "It's just a habit." It wasn't a lie. Even before, I had always played with the gem on it. If it weren't a real stone, I'm sure I would have worn it out, with so much friction."Well, it's beatiful." she said, eyeing the necklace with a small frown etched on her face."Thank you. It was my mum's." I plopped into the couch next to her and picked up a throw pillow, wedging it between my legs.Valeria was hardly ever around, and even when she was, I usually wasn't aware. That is, until she came to drag me out of my bedroom. Like today.I had decided not to go to the office, much to Alberto's chagrin, and Luca's excitement. The truth was, I was feeling a bit under

    LUCAI squeezed the steering wheel of the car tightly seething silently. I had told Hakeem that I was just strolling out, just so that he would not insist on following me, or be suspiscious and alert either Alessandro or Dante of my whereabout.The message had been clear this time.A text message to my phone.Someone was playing with me, and I was going to find out who.We had relaxed after the run in with those men in the club, but I still hadn't believed it was over.He wanted to meet, that was fine.I honked at a car that was turning too slowly in the bend I needed to enter, impatient as hell. When he finally moved, I flipped him a finger and continued on my way.It was a small house. A cottage to be honest.I looked at the adress on my phone's gps again, to make sure I was in the right place.It showed that I was in the right place.I parked the car, opposite the house, on the other side of the road, then brought out my gun, makign sure it was fully loaded, before sticking it in th

    LUCAI couldn't get her out of my mind.I had taken her to my bedroom, and made love over again. Rosetta had brought us a late lunch in the bedroom, after which we had made love again. This time, it had been slow and long. I just didn't want to stop.The only reason I had even left the room was because I knew she was going to be sore, and needed rest.Seeing her in my bed.What had I been thinking taking her there? Now the only place I had to myself that had no trace of her, was now filled with memories of our love making.I poured myself a cup of whiskey, not bothering with ice cubes and just gulped the liquid down.I had never ever, slept with a woman in my bed. I prefered to sleep alone. Yet, after we lay spent, I had drifted into sleep. Not once, in those few hours, had I been jolted awake by the dreams that usually tormented me. In fact, if my phone hadn't vibrated contniously, I would have still been entangled with her, in my bed.I had lingered for a few minutes, just watching

    ELENAI looked behind me, feeling a slight chill down my spine."Is there something wrong?" Samuel asked, looking in the direction I was looking at.I shook my head, blinking and turning back to continue towards where Luca had parked his car. He had called and asked me to meet him in front of his restaurant. I wasn't surprised though, since his new forte was removing me from work at any time of the say.This time though, I welcomed it. Anything but the humiliation I had gone through in that office with my father.The tests, came back negative. All three of them.I didn't understand why, but I felt disappointed too, but not for the same reasons Alberto was.Luca was leaning on the car, his features alert. "Alberto." he nodded, reaching out to shake my father's hand firmly. "Luca." My father replied.I cast my gaze down, waiting for them to say whatever it is they wanted to say to each other, but my name was mentioned. I looked up to see Luca casting me a concerned look. "Get in the car

    ELENA"You did not tell me you were coming." I hissed as my father guided me by my arm into my office. He pushed me inside, and I dismissed Samuel who looked ready to pounce."I don't have to tell you when I'm coming to my own office, dammit!" His tone was more biting than usual. "And tell you bodyguard to mind his damn business!"I looked at my father, then as Samuel who had not backed down. "It's okay, Samuel. Please just wait outside." I pleaded when he continued to stand in the doorway. "Really, it's okay."Unlike his normal aloof self, it took him a few moments before stepping away from the door. "I'll just be right here, ma'am." It was one of the few times I heard him speak.I smiled, then closed the door, before turning around to see my father smoking."That thing will kill you." I said distastefully as he took a deep puff, and massaged my arms where it ached.I had barely stepped out of a meeting with a ground supervisor, when he had literally ambushed me and dragged me all the
