Vincenzo's POV I hear knocks on the door that jolts me out of my thoughts, “Come in” I say, seated on the bed.Too much thinking has been my hubby lately.Gio walked in with the new phone I asked him to get me, I told him to get the phone ready before 9 pm but I guess he got it done in a couple hours.“Boss, the phone, it's ready,” He said, bowing his head.“Drop it,” I muttered, he dropped the phone and left.I looked at it and pulled my eyes away immediately.Violet saved my life, I don't know how to feel about that, I feel like my problems just worsened, what if she didn't come to my rescue? I'd just die and my father's empire would be thrown into jeopardization? Not like I don't trust my uncle but that was never the plan though.How did she even find out that I was drowning? And there she was staring at me when I jerked into consciousness, holding me in her hands, even if a lot was blurry for me at that moment I could see her face very clearly.I heard when she called for help eve
Vincenzo's POV Stepping out of the elevator I decided to have breakfast at home today, also an opportunity to see if I could get Violet to look me in the eyes.That girl hasn't spared me a glance for a week, she does everything in her power to make sure she doesn't see my face and it really stresses me out.I've been trying to make it up to her but she's hardened her heart over me, I didn't mean to treat her the way I did that day. I felt really bad in the end. I just want to make up with her.It breaks my heart to see her act like she hates me, that was not the plan, I care about her feelings and there's so much she doesn't know, but now I've made up my mind I want to win her back for whatever it would cost.I don't care about what anyone thinks.I made my way to the dining, drew out a seat, and sat down. The next minute Mrs Maria came with the first plate of food and gave me a wink, I guess that had to do with Violet.As she turned to leave I saw Violet coming, her face emotionless,
Violet's POV “Something like what?” I asked him, looking at him dead in the eyes, I don't think Vincenzo understood how much he hurt me that day. If he thinks that his little moves will make me forgive him, it's not going to work.“Violet….” He let out a deep breath, “I want you to know that I will never do anything to hurt you, physically, emotionally, or otherwise I'd never, I just felt I didn't deserve your virginity, after all I've done to you after all I've made you go through, look at my fucked up life, everything about me is the opposite of the normal life, my life is a mess and I've been managing it so far but when you are not there I don't see a reason why I should be breathing Violet, I care about you, I mean every word I say to you. You didn't just save my life, you saved this empire, I can't even imagine what would have happened to my father's empire if you hadn't come that minute and saved me, I can't imagine what would become of my father's empire if I died, I owe it all
Violet's POV The sound of birds chirping outside was a reminder that it was morning, I was awake but I didn't want to open my eyes just yet.I reminisced on the events of last night and I couldn't help but smile, Vincenzo pampered me like a child and cuddled me, told me funny stuff till we both slept off.I woke up like ten minutes ago but when I opened my eyes Vincenzo was still sleeping, holding me in place, I didn't want to leave his arms either, he held me close to his heart, Vincenzo even showed me more care than John, I wonder why he'd still be looking for me after treating me like trash.I felt Vincenzo's hands on my face, My eyes were still closed, pretending to be asleep, “Why are you smiling Baby?” he asked in that sexy voice that jolts the walls of my cores to life, I'm still feeling sore from last night.I opened my eyes and they met with his gray eyes, I smiled harder, “Nothing, Good morning,” I greeted him.“Morning, My baby, I don't need to ask how was your night. I can
Violet's POV After defying Vincenzo's order after he told me not to worry about helping Mrs Maria serve breakfast, I did and after serving him and his uncle he asked me to come and have breakfast with him.With His uncle there I felt very uncomfortable but I managed to comport myself.As I returned from the kitchen, Vincenzo hadn't started eating yet. He was waiting for me. I smiled at him, a facade to hide my nervousness.Vincenzo stood up and drew out a chair for me to sit, I sat and he did same, my eyes moved from Vincenzo to his uncle, I won't ignore his presence even if I don't really like him, I know he is doing his job.“Good morning, Uncle Erico,” I greeted him and he smiled. I was surprised to see him break character. This man never smiles, like since I've known him, he is always about business and the Mafia.“Good morning,” he replied briefly.Everyone started eating but I found myself playing with the food. I could feel uncle Erico’s heated stare on me, but I couldn't say a
Violet's POV We made our way to the garden bench, and there I laid down and put my head on Vincenzo's leg as he sat down, while he used his hand to support my head as we discussed, we just talked about anything that came up our minds and honestly, this moment was priceless for me.You know him making time to make sure am happy, spending time with me, I love it, I honestly do, I wish this moment will last forever because I love it, the way he has been kissing my forehead without warning, playing with my hair, and telling me how beautiful I look while I was caressing his cheek and chin, is not something I think I experienced even in a real relationship.Whenever I think about all he does for me, how I feel about him and remember the contract I feel bad that all this will end in one year because I'm falling deeper and deeper for him each day.I don't know what to do, I try to hold back sometimes but I lose control whenever I'm with him, aside him there's no reason I want to be here after
Violet's POV After swimming, we went inside to change, we didn't stop there, the day was all about fun so we made sure to make it count, we took turns to massage each other, we watched movies, played games, used the sauna, when it was night we slept together not without having a blast sex that gave me pain and pleasure all at once.The next morning Vincenzo took another day off to be with me at home, he said he felt like spending more time with me, even if we know it's wrong for him to be staying home, I wanted him to stay at home with me.Throwing his arms around me carelessly, playing with me, telling me jokes, making every hour with him count I felt complete, I only read this in novels but now it's happening, it's fucking happening and I'm glad he feels the same thing I feel for him.I just wish I could tell my Mom the truth, I wish I can get to see my father and tell him that his boss's son now loves me, I need to scream to the world that I'm in love with someone now, I didn't kno
Vincenzo's POV “Violet, Violet,” Were the first words that came out of my mouth when I opened my eyes.I looked around the room and I saw the drip stand by the side and I saw my uncle and Mrs Maria speaking with our family doctor.“How is the treatment going? Is he going to survive?” My uncle asked worriedly, concern etched in his voice.“The poison was a very dangerous concussion, I had a hard time untangling it, it will be trouble for you despite your resistance, thank God it hasn't caused him any irreparable damage yet, you guys need to be more careful,” the doctor said.My uncle sighed a sigh of relief, and shook his head in regret.“When is he going to wake up?” My uncle asked, my gaze flickered to Mrs Maria and she just stood there, she looked overwhelmed by shock.The doctor looked at his watch “hopefully, In a few hours, he should be awake,” he answered and then he looked at me, “I think he's already awake,” the doctor pointed in my direction.My uncle and Mrs Maria turned to
