Michael and Aaron had returned to Michael’s home after dropping off the newlyweds and Riley at the airport. Michael’s parents were more than happy to have Aaron stay at their place until Adrian and Jordan return from their honeymoon.
They had come late at night and Aaron had dozed off on the way to home. Sarah had put him to sleep in Michael’s childhood room. Sarah had still maintained the old room very well. It was as if some toddler was still staying in that room.
Michael could not sleep well last night. Riley was constantly present on his mind and he could not think about anything else or anyone else except for her. He had scrolled through his phone and the pictures he had taken during the wedding and the reception. He had sent a few of them to Riley where he, Riley, and Aaron were present in the picture. And he had kept all of her single pictures to himself which he had taken without her knowledge. He was not going to share it with anyone.
He had gone to sleep
Riley had spent her day just by staying inside her room. Her father had left for his work and Vincenzo for his mission. He had sent her a text message before leaving, telling her to wait for him. She had not replied anything to it. She was not sure about waiting for him, neither was she sure that he would not let her down once again. She was not ready to get hurt again.Riley went outside, to the garden in their house to get some fresh air. She spotted her mother watering the plants. After all, it was her personal garden. Giorgia had grown the plants just like she had raised her kids. They were very dear to her. In the luxurious prison, this was her beautiful escape.
“I want to sleep with you, Grandma Sarah,” Aaron said to Sarah, who was tucking him to the bed. He and Michael had been home for a few hours now from their outing with Harley and Ace and had dinner.“With me? Why Aaro? Don’t you like here?” she asked with a concerned tone. She wondered if he was scared of sleeping alone or he did not like the room. But she also knew he had slept well in the same room last night. So it confused her.“I like this room. But I want to sleep next to Grandma and Grandpa,” he clarified her doubts with his sweet baby voice.Sarah chuckled at his wor
Sarah and Jonathan woke up to loud music crippling through the walls of their house. They did not have to do any guesses to know who was behind the loud music. Michael. It had to be him. When they did not find Aaron and Michael on the bed, it was confirmed that little Aaro had joined his uncle’s early morning party too.Sarah moved closer to Jonathan and hugged him, laying her head on his chest. And he draped one of his hands around her waist and stroked her hair with the other hand.“They are loud,” Jonathan commented.
After Adrian and Aaron left their house, the three of them simply sat and watched the tv for a few hours. Sarah sighed loudly making her husband and son turn to her. “What happened Sweetheart?” Jonathan asked, sliding his arm around her shoulder. She looked at him with a sad face, “I miss Aaron already. The house feels empty.”Jonathan caressed her cheeks and replied, “I know the feeling Sweetheart. But don’t worry we will meet h
Michael peeked into the dining area while standing behind the wall. His mom was busy in the kitchen and his father was busy with his phone. Sarah turned around to get a bowl, and that is when she noticed her son peeping into the dining area.She raised her brows and questioned, “What is it, Mikey?” That made Jonathan look up from his phone.“Woah... That is a lot of attention,” Michael said walking to the dining table.“Who else to give,
Michael took his luggage and went downstairs. He was all set for his supposed solo vacation to Italy. He had convinced his parents, informed to Jordan and had cleared the change of course in the college. He saw his mom was already up and was preparing breakfast.He leaned and kissed her cheeks, “Good Morning, Mamma.”Sarah smiled, “Good Morning, Baby. Are you ready to go to Italy to find your love?” She asked raised her eyes brows.He was not exactlyy shocked about his mom’s revelation. He knew all along that his mom would guess it.“Shush…. Mamma. Please don’t say it loudly. I don’t want to get cross with your husband again.”“Ohho… my baby is becoming very good.” She pinched his cheeks.“What else to do whenn he is being nice to me?”“Hmm… that’s right baby. I hope you both can get along well at lesst from now on.”“It seems like we will, Mamma.”At that moment, Jonathan announces his presence by clearing his throat.“All
Michael had landed in Italy last night and had immediately checked into his room that he had book. It was his first time in Italy and he could barely speak Italian language. He did not know how to find Riley here in the city of Rome. Sure, he knew that she lives in a fortress in the middle of the city. He wondered why would the Don build a fortress in the middle of the city. As per Michael's knowledge, powerful dons lived outside the city in a forest like an area. But Alessandro Bianchi seemed to be a different kind of don.Michael woke up the next day morning and got ready quickly. He rushed down to the reception to enquire about breakfast and stuff. He was in the elevator, staring at Riley’s address in one hand and her picture on his phone in another hand.He exited the elevator and barely had walked to the lounge, someone bumped into him, making his phone fall down. That, someone, looked like he was a little older than Michael and he had a quite built body and seemed
Michael stared at his phone wondering why Riley is not picking up his phone call. He had his breakfast and then decided to roam around a mall which caught his attention. He was drawn to the building landscape and was curious about the interior. Perhaps this was the clue for him to concentrate on buildings and construction, he thought.He went inside the mall and began his studying of the interior. The shops were no different from the US. It were the same brand shops and a few hotels with Italian food of course.Michael roamed around the mall for the next 30 minutes or so simple glancing over everything and bought a bracelet for Riley which he thought might suit for her.Just when he was about to pay the bill, he heard his name. But he did not pay any attention to it. Because he knew no one in this place.“Michael,” he turned around when the voice was right behind his ears. There stood, Giorgia, with a bodyguards behind her, holding her shopping bags.Mi
4 years laterThe mansion was lit up with bright and colorful lights. And was decorated with all the kids’ friendly things. Several cars were coming inside the gate one by one. It was Whitaker’s house.Aaron got off the car and helped his sister, Amity get off. He was 10 years old now and his sister was 4. They were not super close siblings but they did share a cute sibling bond. Upon Adrian’s over pamper, Amity got her way through with almost everything. Despite groaning and complaining, Aaron still loved his little sister and did anything and everything for her.
It was the weekend and everyone, Adrian and Jordan’s family, Michael and Riley’s family were gathered at Michael’s house. It was more like Michael had invited everyone to speak about something important. Everyone’s first thoughts were him and Riley getting together but was also curious to know it from him.Aaron was playing with a videogame while the elders were busy looking at the little princess, Amity Marcel. She was one month old and had relatively grown a little since her birth. Now, she was able to recognize people by their faces. And she could coo louder than before which had effects on everyone, especially her father. Adrian was totally smitten by his daughter. He was always by her side. He had even
A month laterRiley found herself vomiting excessively and on regular basis. At first, she thought that she was having a bug. But when it continued for weeks, she was scared. Her mother had noticed this but had refrained from saying anything.Again, this morning, Riley was vomiting when Giorgia came to her room. She helped her daughter to clean up and then lie down on the bed.“I think you should visit a doctor. This is going extreme,” Gi
A few days laterJordan wakes up groaning with pain. She feels wet down there, a different kind of wet. She held onto her baby bump and called her husband’s name who was fast asleep.“Adrian, Adrian,” her voice was pretty hoarse. She shook his shoulder and called again with a louder voice, “Adrian.”He opened his eyes, “What happened sweetheart?”“My... ““What is it, J? You are scaring me,” by now, he had got up and sat at her side.“My water broke,” she whispered. Adrian got into action immediately, he got of
Riley spent the night mostly thinking about her father’s words about moving back to Italy. Did she really want to go back? That was all she thought throughout the night. She tossed and turned around in the bed continuously and barely got 5 hours of sleep.She was getting ready in her room while also hearing her parents bicker about what to wear and where all to go. Earlier, when she was having her morning coffee, her parents informed her that they were going for a date and she should not call them and disturb them. She had snorted as a reaction. Her parents were going out on a proper date probably for the first time in their entire relationship. She replied to them, “Fine, go on. I will go on a date by myself.”
After their intense love making in the car, Michael and Riley get dressed and get into the front seats. He drives towards her house.“How are you feeling?” He asked out of nowhere.She turned to him with a confused expression written on her face, “About what?”“About going to home being freshly fucked,” he smirked knowing that Riley would be giving him a disgusting look. She hits him on his chest and turn to look out of the window. And she actually thought about how she was feeling going home after freshly fucked by Michael. The crimson shade that was spread all over her face gave it away to Michael, who was secretly taking glances at her and hoped that she would think about what she felt.Michael laughed pretty loudly making Riley groan, “Stop it, Michael. I will kill you.”“That’s my girl,” he said and leaned closer to her and captured her lips in a deep kiss before getting back to the driver’s seat. Riley was beyond shocked to hear him say that
The baby shower was almost done and Michael’s parents bid bye and left. Michael had noticed Riley’s dress and her sexy neck that was driving him crazy. It was almost evening and he had some work to take care so he walked to her and said, “Shall we leave now?”Riley was talking to Jordan about the baby delivery and how anxious Jordan was feeling. Michael noticed the look on Jordan's face, “What happened sweetheart?” He asked her.“I am scared about the baby delivery, Mikey. I don’t know what to do,” she said worriedly.“Don’t worry, Jordan. We are all here to help with the baby. But I cannot take the pain you have to go through for the child birth. But I promise we will male sure you are cared well after that. Don’t worry.” He kissed her forehead. Jordan nodded her head in understanding and opened her arms for a hug. Michael smiled and hugged her, he rubbed her back, trying to soothe her.“What’s happening here?” Adrian came into the scene.Michael leane
The day of baby shower had rolled in quickly. Riley stood in front of her mirror while wearing the light purple dress which Sarah had brought for her when they had been to shopping. She had applied light makeup and had her hair tied into a ponytail. She even remembered Michael’s distraction comment on her hair the other day. But did not care about it. Perhaps, she wanted to distract and tease him a little.Giorgia and Alessandro were already ready and was waiting for Riley to come out of her room.Riley’s sprayed a little perfume and took one last look of her appearance in the mirror and walked outside.“Wow… that dress looks good on you,” Giorgia said when she saw her daughter coming out of the room.Riley smiled, “Thanks, Michael’s mom bought it for me.”Alessandro raised his brows and repeated his daughter’s words, “Michael’s mom brought it for you.”“Yes, now come on, we don’t wanna be late,” she hurried her parents out of the house. For the f
Riley stirred in her sleep when the sunlight dropped on her skin through the window. She was way too comfortable to open her sleep. She smuggled closer and hugged. That was when she felt the strong body next to her. She opened her eyes and looked at her bed. She was laying on Michael’s chest and he had his hand gripped tightly around her waist and their legs tangled. They were laying on her bed, naked and the duvet barely covering any of their body parts.She tried to move away from him, but suddenly felt a sting of pain in between her legs. Last night’s activities had worn her out. He had made love to her multiple times and made her scream his name, her lungs out. She had no energy to even get out of the bed. She turned to Michael and he was asleep peacefully. Does he still love me? Would he take her back if she makes a move on him? Do I even deserve him? Thoughts ram inside her mind widely.She shook her head as if thoughts would run away. She slowly and silently, trie
