Della's POV
"OK, Molly. I put Daisy to bed an hour ago. She ought to stay asleep until the morning so you should simply be here. There's a lot of food here. Incase you get hungry, kindly take anything you need. You have my number and I have written my work number and Natalie's number on a piece of paper and placed it on the refrigerator.
In case anything is off-base, call me. I'll have my phone with me the entire evening.
I'll answer immediately." I talked so quick, I didn't actually think she grasped me however she did.
"Della, all will be great. Feel free to go to work. You would rather not be late. I guarantee I will call regardless." My neighbor Molly said happily while putting her hands on my shoulders.
I took a full breath to quiet myself and gestured my head, "OK, you're correct. I've never let her alone or with anybody before and-"
"I get it, Della. You're concerned, however when you return, you'll see that all worked out well. She will in any case be snoozing freely till morning." Molly soothes me in a delicate tone.
I grin at her and say thanks to her prior to advancing toward the entryway. Halting abruptly, I turn around to confront her, "Molly, are you certain… "
She cut me off immediately before I could finish, "She'll be fine, Della!"
I let out a deep murmur and raise my hands up showing her that I have given up, "OK,
I'll see you later, Molly. Much obliged once more."
"Alright, dear. Have a decent night at work." She says farewell before I leave and close the door behind me.
I walk down the stairs to Natalie, who had proactively gone to hang tight for me in the vehicle so we can go to work and I got in with her.
At the point when we strolled into the club, it was totally stuffy. The bar was packed with individuals singing, dancing and drinking. The dance floor was loaded with individuals grinding against one another.
Natalie looks at me and raises an eyebrow, "Would you say you are prepared for a bustling ass shift?"
I take in a full breath and shrugged my shoulder softly. She snatched my hand and pulled me towards the bar.
"Fedele, this is Della, our new server." She tells somebody behind the bar.
A gorgeous person raised his head. He grinned at me and said, "Definitely. Boss called me today and told me. Despite the fact that, I don't have the foggiest idea why he employed you himself. I ordinarily recruit the servers."
"Uhh, I haven’t quite met him. Natalie talked with him for me." I tell him apprehensively while playing with my fingers.
"Truly? You would have come to me, Natalie. I'm the person who employed each and every server in this club." He shared with her while folding his arms over his chest, making his muscles swell.
Natalie feigned exacerbation, "You carry on like you would have kicked the bucket on the off chance that you didn't enlist her yourself."
"I mean... better believe it. I could have. You're simply Fedele I didn't." He answered before winking at me.
I chuckled softly yet at the same time said nothing, choosing to keep standing by listening to them talk.
Nat grunted and said, "No, you're Fedele."
He gazed at her for around five seconds with an emotionless expression before saying,
"That was actually not funny in any way."
"Gracious, please!!" She leaned on the bar before punching him in the shoulder. "It was somewhat amusing. Just let it out."
"No, just help me out and get your butt to work." He tells her as he looks down at his watch. "Your shift began ten minutes ago."
She flipped him off before leaving the horde of individuals.
He then, at that point, went to me and passed me a tray with eight shot glasses loaded up with tequila, "Here, take these to table nine."
"OK." I pause before asking him, "Would you please permit me to make a call first?"
He shifted his head a bit and squinted his eyes at me, "Really? You just began your shift and today is your first day, need I remind you."
I look at the ground with my heart pulsating ridiculously in my chest and afterward think back up at him, "It's sort of important and necessary."
Murmuring, he tells me, "Okay, you got one moment. Hurry up, shortcake."
I gesture my head and immediately take out my phone to call Molly. It rings multiple times before she at long last gets, "Hi?
"Hello, Molly. I was simply calling to know how things are faring with Daisy. Is she alright? Is she still sleeping?" I ask with stress, holding a finger over my other ear so I could attempt to hear her better.
"Sure, dear. She's fine. She hasn't woken up yet." She answers me with a consoling tone.
I let out a murmur and gesture as a grin pulls at the side of my lips, "OK, fantastic. I have to return to work now. Much appreciated, Molly."
"Obviously. See you later, Della." She tells me and I hang up and return my phone to my pocket.
I pick up the tray and afterward advance toward table nine. Finding a spot at the table is two more seasoned men. I don't visually engage with both of them yet I could feel their eyes on me as I draw nearer to them.
I stop at the table and spot the shots before them. Just as I was going to leave, one person shouted out while slurring on his words and looking at me up and down, "You want to s-stay and have a sh-shot with us?"
I could in a real sense smell all of the liquor emerging from his mouth. I intellectually feign exacerbation I walk away, "I can't. I'm working and regardless of whether I wasn't, the response would in any case be no."
Right as I began leaving, I felt a hand slap my butt. My pulse got a move on and not positively. Quiet yourself down, Della. It's just debased alcoholics.
I took a full breath in and made my way around the club, proceeding to work. Toward the end of my shift, I find Natalie and approach her prior to saying, "Nat, I will use the restroom before we leave."
"Alright, I'll simply chill out at the bar for you." She says before leaving.
I leave for the restroom and was very stunned when I took everything in. There weren't any splendid varieties however it was as yet decent.
Goodness, I would've felt that a restroom within a club would be much dirtier yet not a chance. I can't help thinking about how they keep it so perfect over the course of the evening. There's no vomit anyplace... not so much as a solitary piece of paper towel dropped on the floor. It even scents like lavender.
Shaking my head, I stroll into the decent spot and do my business. Out of nowhere, the restroom doors opens and I hear female voices talking noisily.
"Goodness gracious! Did you see him?" A screechy voice asks the partner who came in with her.
"I knooow! He is sooooo hot!" The unassuming voice answers while she loosens up her damn O's.
Unexpectedly, the screechy young lady began making this truly awful clamor before she began talking once more, "Eeeeeeeeeee!!!"
It was the sort of commotion that would most likely have the option to break glass.
I'm simply shocked the mirrors didn't break.
"I can't really accept that I got to see him this evening! He's so masculine. Envision what he could do in bed." She says groggily, more to herself than to her companion I expect.
Fucking damnation. They recently began talking and I as of now have a migraine.
Makes no difference either way... it ain't basically impossible that in damnation that I'd remain in here, listening to them discuss who knows what for an extremely long time.
Wrapping up, I flush the latrine, leave the slow down, and head towards the sink. The two of them quiet down and from the side of my eye, I could see them both stare at me.
One of the young ladies expresses something to the next in a murmur while they look at me and begin laughing. I just disregarded them and went to dry my hands. I'm making an effort not to get into any show at this moment. I really want to return home to my bubbles.
I left the irritating young ladies in the restroom and went to track down Nat at the bar. She's drinking water and having a discussion with Fedele, who is cleaning down the bar top.
"Hello, Nat-" Just as I began talking, my phone started ringing and interrupted me.
I hauled it out and took a look at the screen, quickly picking up the telephone when I saw that Molly's calling me, "Molly, is everything-"
"Della, it's Daisy! I don't have any idea what occurred. I just... Wow!" She yells through the telephone in a frenzy, making my stomach turn.
"And Daisy? Molly, what is going on with Daisy?!" I question yet she doesn't answer me. I hear the weak sound of something banging and inquire, "What's that commotion behind the scenes? Hello? Can you hear me?! Molly!!"
I hung up the phone in dread and outrage when she doesn't talk. My heart begins hustling 1,000,000 miles every moment and my head starts to turn, thinking about every one of the potential things that might have turned out badly.
The one night that I'm not with her, something occurs. Imagine a scenario in which it's downright terrible. What on the off chance that he's here? What if-
No! Stop it, Della.
Shaking my head, I shake off those imaginations. I can't think like that. I really want to return home to Daisy.
Natalie was gazing at me in concern yet I just got her hand and pulled her to the exit with me while swiftly saying, "You want to get me home at this moment and quick!"
"What? Why? What's up?" She asks me with concern and frenzy blazing over her face.
"I don't fucking have the foggiest idea, Natalie! Bring me back home so I can figure it out!!" I snap at her. That was likely a little mean however at this moment, I couldn't have cared less. My need is Daisy.
I guaranteed myself and her that I would constantly keep her safe. I'm not going to let her down or break my commitment.
Mom's coming, bubbles. Simply hold tight.
Della's POVAt the point when Natalie pulls up close to my vehicle, I don't for even a moment sit tight for her to completely pause and park. I leap out of her vehicle and run up the steps to my loft.Molly left the door open so when I got to my condo, I opened the door and ran inside.Molly had stayed at the entrance of the bathroom attempting to open it."What in God's name happened?!" I ask impatiently while attempting to catch my breath."I was in the parlor sitting in front of the TV and I heard her shout so I got up and went to her room. I noticed she was having a bad dream since her eyes were shut yet she continued to shout. At the point when I at long last woke her, she got up and ran into the bathroom. She locked the door so I was unable to get in. However, she continued to call for you." Molly let me know in a terrified voice.I put my ear to the bathroom door and I could faintly hear Daisy crying. Thumping on the entryway, I shout to her, "bubbles, can you please open the d
Alessandro's POVAll has been going great in my club up to this point. I surmise that implies the new server hasn't wrecked anything. I haven't seen her yet however I'm certain I will soon."Hello, brother. Apricot was inquiring of your whereabouts." Luca says as he plunks down close to me in the VIP area.I feign exacerbation while taking a taste of my bourbon, "Her butt generally assumes that she's my damn sweetheart or somebody valuable to me."Luca giggles and slaps me on the back, "Indeed, you really do call her consistently.It's your own fault.""Definitely, for a speedy lay and in light of the fact that she's great with her mouth when she isn't talking. If I planned to have a sweetheart, it most certainly wouldn't be her. She might be a decent fuck however she's irritating and too damn demanding.Can you remember what she did when she strolled in on me fucking that lady a day or two ago?" I remind him, looking as he flinches at the memory."Gee... Definitely, you're correct."
Alessandro's POVAs I got up today, I prepared and went to the warehouse with some of my men. We were there for around four hours.In the wake of making sure that my shipments were all available, we went back to my club. I dealt with a lot of paper work in my office while the folks really look at the club to ensure that everything was set for another busy night.We remained there for two or three hours, busying ourselves calling it a day. At the point when we returned home, I could smell all the food being made in the kitchen.The folks headed out in different directions to do who knows which while I preferred to go to my room and wash up.As I was remaining in the shower, I began pondering the previous night.After I had gone back into the club, I strolled directly to my office and glanced through her envelope to get her name.Della Anderson.I sat in my seat and began contemplating her. She's certainly a lovely lady... I can't lie about that. I could gaze into her emerald green eyes
Della's POV Over the past three weeks, regardless of how hard I attempted, I was unable to shake off Alessandro. He was by all means all over me and it was almost unimaginable for me to disregard him. Particularly in light of the fact that he's my Boss. I got to know his younger brother Luca, who was exceptionally pleasant to me. Alessandro let me know that he has another sibling but I haven't met him yet. Dario I actually don't get along with him since after the incident at the club. I had a go at conversing with him a couple of times so we could start on the right foot but he kept brushing me off each time rather giving me snide ass remarks, at the same time earning himself a hard knock in the head from Alessandro. Multiple times, Alessandro really appeared as though he needed to beat him senseless or more terrible. It made me a little bit uncomfortable however Alessandro generally appeared to observe things since he would in a flash quiet down. The last time Dario said somethi
Alessandro's POV I was going to send Della another message since she hadn't answered my message. She just read it and disregarded my message. She overlooked my fucking message. Just as as I was composing in another text, I heard the sound of high heels approaching me. I turn upward and my jaw drops at the sight before me. Holy shit… Can this lady at any point get any hotter? She's wearing a tight red dress that shows off her curves effortlessly. Her hair is wavy in free twists that skip with each step she takes. She stops before me with an apprehensive demeanor all over. She then turns upward and I look directly into her delightful emerald green eyes that have a polished touch to them as the evening glow beams on them. I tenderly snatch her hand and put the bundle of roses in it. She examines them briefly before grinning and saying thanks to me. I put my hands on her midriff and pull her nearer to me, needing to feel her body against mine. She rests her free hand on my arm as s
Della's POVI jerk my head back and focus to my left side to see Daisy there there in her night wear, clutching Tom in one arm and scouring her eyes sluggishly with her free hand.I think back to Alessandro who is frozen, gazing at Daisy, still standing in between my legs. I immediately put my hands on his chest and that appears to wake up him from his frozen state. He takes a look at me and makes three strides back.I leap off the counter and move toward Daisy, getting her and holding her to my left side hip. I take a look at Alessandro again to see him looking from me Daisy with a befuddled demeanor all over."Mom, who is he?" Daisy asks with a delicate voice as she puts her head on my shoulder and stares at Alessandro.I open my mouth to speak but nothing emerges. I didn't believe that he should see her. He shouldn't have any familiarity or closeness with her."I am Alessandro." He addresses her question as he ventures toward us.My hold around Daisy unknowingly fixes as I marginal
Della's POVAlessandro creates some distance from me and sits on the opposite side of the lounge chair, gazing at me with a stunned and confounded demeanor all over.I was unable to fault him. I'm certain anybody would respond the same way to what I recently said. For hell's sake, I would try and respond the same way on the chance that another person let me know this."I know you're befuddled however I guarantee, I'll attempt to give an answer to any questions you have." I tell him as I play with my fingers.He simply takes a look at me without saying a word before squinting and making a sound as if to speak, "Umm, I don't have the foggiest idea. How is it possible that you are a virgin at the same time have a child?"I gesture my head, anticipating that that should be his first question, "Yeah, Daisy is my younger sister."He keeps quiet, sitting tight for me to proceed. "Daisy and I both have the same mother however different dads. My stepdad is Daisy's biological father.""For what
Alessandro's POV"Hello, man. Where were you the previous evening?" Luca asks me when I stroll into the kitchen.I hiss at him and get some espresso before asking, "What are you? My mom?""Fine, don't tell me. I'll find out later in any case." He takes a chomp of his toast and afterward his eyes enlarge as though he recently remembered something prior to telling me, "Goodness, speaking of which... mother and father are coming over for Christmas."I get my cup from the counter and take a taste of my espresso, "I thought father said they were spending the holiday in Italy."He shrugs his shoulders, "Better believe it, well you know how mother is about family and occasions so why not."I gesture my head and ask him, "When did she tell you?""Last night. I planned to let you know when you returned home however... you know." He gives me a sharp look and takes out his phone."I was occupied." I tell him as I fold my arms over my chest.He stirs his head and answers without looking away from
Fedele’s POVHe pulled out his phone and turned it so I could see it. I looked on the screen and sure enough there was a video of Della"You see Fedele I hold all the cards. My wife, my family and hers are safe and sound.""Now what? Are you going to kill me with your bare hands.""Actually I have been thinking about that. Then I started thinking what would be the best possible punishment for your indiscretions and it came to me as I arrived here."He got up and a screen came down from the ceiling. Pictures of children faces appeared. One was of a little girl who looked to be blind, another one was of a little boy connected to a machine and a little girl who's face seemed to be scarred. Then more pictures appeared of sick people. One by one from young to old he clicked through pictures of people I didn't know."Why are you showing me this?""Because you are going to either save their lives or you will enhance it.""What are you talking about?"The door opened behind him and two men wa
Fedele’s POVI woke up to find myself in another room. I was still wearing the blood stained garment that was drenched in Harold's and Auntie's blood. I must have been dreaming.The stench of the blood was starting to get to me. I raised up slowly holding on to the wall."Rise and shine." I heard the eery voice of my captor. I looked around and still his cover was hidden.The wall opened up and there was a bed with white sheets and someone lying in it. I walked in as it seemed to be the only place to go. As I walked in I heard two distinct voices. A man and a woman but they were moaning. The covers moved and then someone emerged from under the sheets. I watched as the sheet slowly lowered from the back.I squinted trying to figure out who it was and why was I brought here. It was a woman.She moved her body up and down. He leaned her head back and I stopped in my tracks."Ashley?" I ran towards her but was stopped instantly as I hit a glass wall. I started to beat on it but she couldn
Fedele’s POV"What's the difference Harold? Della's dead and you nor Alessandro got her .""You sick mothefucker! Della was the only... reason I stayed. You switched the results...""I did what I had too. I had already lost everything and I couldn't afford to watch you have Della.""You sick scum .""This time he charged me and was able to grab my foot and I hit the floor hard. I tried getting up but he kept pulling me closer until his face was mere inches from mine. His left eye was dark purple as I could see traces of a fist. There were light scratches on his cheek and his neck was bloody with remnants of a huge scar.He laughed as I could see most of his teeth had been pulled out. Somehow the blood had dried up in clumps around his swollen gums making him look like a monster. I turned my face as I didn't want to see him.I knew I could never trust him and I needed to find a way out of here."Me? You started this Harold!""I might have but you took it to another level," he said cough
Fedele’s POVI looked up at my surroundings. I decided to take the tunnel straight in front of me. It seemed as if I was in a catacomb. The dark rich stone and concrete was thick and settled as if it had been carved thousands of years ago. It was dark and the more I journeyed in the more the air seemed thin.I continued on which seemed like forever until I came to a door and I opened it only to find a brick wall behind it. I hit it with my hands and the force from the hit had me shaking the pain away."Ouch, what the hell?" I said hitting on all sides. I could hear his laughter in the background so I ran back the way I came. I finally came out and started on another tunnel. The Dane thing happened except this one became smaller at the end. I was literally hunched back when I opened the door to another wall. I ran back to the opening and there were two more tunnels.I started from my left and the tunnel zigzagged. I continued on as I felt coldness starting to seep through. My clothes w
Fedele’s POVI slid down the wall and cried. I could still taste the metallic flavor of Auntie's blood against my lips and my dress was drenched in her blood. How was this happening to me why did I do what i did? At this point I don't even know what made me involve myself in the plot to kill Alessandro's wife? I saw a red light and when I looked up the clock was counting down. I didn't know how long I had been sitting here but all I could do was watch the numbers ticking away."Mr Fedele time is wasting," he said in a singing voice. The deep baritone voice dripped with pure insanity."Leave me alone you sick fucker!""Ah now now now. Did we not just have a conversation about name calling? Have I called you out of your birth name? Where are your manners Mr. Fedele?"I looked around trying to find where his voice was coming from. I checked the ceiling and the walls and couldn't see anything."Did you have to kill her? She made a mistake and death shouldn't have been her punishment. That
Fedele’s POV"What kind of game are you playing Asshole? Let her go!" I yelled out in the room."Save me Fedele!" She said begging and crying so hard I couldn't hear my own thoughts. My heart was beating so fast in my chest I didn't know what to do. I couldn't afford to lose her. I climbed up on the platform to see if I could push the blade part back up. I was using all my strength to make it go back up but it wouldn't move up just kept moving down. I heard Auntie crying harder."I can use the saw and cut your feet off. I think it's the only chance you have.""No you can't. Oh God please no.""Auntie it's the only way."She screamed. "No....please. There has to be another way."Tears were rolling down my eyes. "Let me save you.""Ah nooooo..." I heard her say as the clock bonged out. The wood around her neck began to tighten. I could hear the metal and see the metal knobs that held up the two pieces of the opening turning. This contraption wasn't giving me much time."Whoever can hear
Fedele’s POVI heard him counting down and the once closed door began to open. A bright light barely showed through all the darkness as it seemed that the darkness behind me was starting to suck up the light in front of me. This couldn't be happening. I heard King growling and barking."Five... four... three..."I looked at the clock on the wall. The red numbers twenty-four appeared so bright as King started barking louder and before Hatter got to one, I took out through the open door. As soon as I made it out, the door closed and the lights began to automatically come on down the hall. I touched the wall and sure enough it was made of concrete. Was I in some type of maze? I continued down the hallway but when I stopped and looked back, darkness had covered my tracks."Alessandro please, this is too much. I'm sorry for what I did." I said moving down the hall. I was looking up to see if I could spot cameras but I didn't see anything.Finally a huge room appeared before me. It had a m
Fedele’s POV"I heard you the first time young man," he said with his voice dripping with sarcasm."Please have a cup of tea or something to eat. You must be starving. You were sleeping when they brought you here and it's been over fifteen hours I guess since you have probably had something to eat. People can't focus if their bodies haven't gotten nourishment."I could hear my stomach growling as he said the words. I didn't know if there was poison or anything else in the food. I looked at him and then the food. "How do I know you haven't poisoned it?""Here let me show you," he said taking a slice of ham and placing it on a plate. He picked up a fork and knife, cut it and placed a piece in his mouth. "See, this is good Canadian ham especially smoked with tender loving care," he said winking at me. He picked up the other empty glass and poured himself some water. He patted away any evidence of the food and water."What happened to your hair and apron? I wanted you to look nice when we
Fedele’s POVJolting awake from my sleep, I felt disoriented I looked up and saw green eyes staring back at me as I felt something cold entering my body.I grabbed my neck as I felt a tiny hole against it."Alessandro ?" I asked as my eyes felt heavy."The one and only.""You can't do anything to me!" I tried to yell but my speech felt slurred."I can do whatever I want. You wanted to play games so I am here to play. The only difference is you will play by my rules. The problem is do you want to live or die?The choice will be yours?""You can't hurt me. I am not... a..fr..aid of you." My breathing felt heavy."Oh but you will soon. Get some rest brother because you are going to need it." I felt myself swaying. Alessandro grabbed me and placed me in a box. My eyes were so heavy as I tried to keep them open.He put an oxygen mask on my face and connected the tubing through a small hole in the box to a small tank outside the box. He sat on his knees and strapped my arms to the side of
