AlessiaMy body relaxes and I cupped his face deepening the kiss. Angelo's hand stopped at the small of my back. He sucked on my lower lip for the longest time before pulling away. We rested our foreheads on each other, with our breath fanning against each other's faces. "Do you have an idea of what you just did?" He whispered. "I did nothing," I replied equally. "You were practically enjoying your time with Annie too."His thumb brushed off my face, one that made me melt in his touch. "Annie's case is different. You allowed another man to sit next to you." I wanted to laugh at his statement but held it in. "You should have been with me. You left me all alone." I pouted. His forehead left mine. He stared into my eyes. Intently, that had me drowning myself in the pool of his eyes. "I didn't. My attention has been on you all the while. You just didn't notice. You were too busy playing hard to get." I rolled my eyes jerking my face from his hold."Yes. Go. I don't want to talk to you.
AngeloMature content warning!Alessia squirmed underneath me as I trailed kisses over her neck down to her collarbone. My large frame was pressed onto her body making her look petite in front of me. I know I was only deceiving myself for what I feel for her. Lying to myself that my recent softness towards her was because of the guilt.But the truth is, I wanted her so badly. To be around me. I want to wake up every morning and see her face. Love is a strong word to use. Heck, I don't even know if what I feel for her was love. But I like her. I like Alessia. Seeing the way men were drooling over her earlier at the beach, the way their eyes were raking over her body lustfully, made me realize what I was missing. Alessia's hand met with the back of my head, snapping me out of my trance. I stared into her eyes and we held each other's gaze. Everything about her was just fucking perfect. I want to bury myself deep inside her body in a way that her brain will only contain my thoughts and
Alessia I pulled up the zipper of my jeans and rushed out of the room. Angelo's touch still lingered on my body making more heat flow through my body. My heart thumped loudly as I descended down praying Angelo and his men hadn't left yet. I ignored Annie calling out to me. I know for a fact that I wouldn't allow our moment to go to waste. I saw Angelo about to hop inside the car. "Angelo wait," I called out to him. He turned around and fixed his confused eyes on me. I stepped down the veranda and made a run to him. "I want to tag along," I said trying to catch my breath."Why? We are going on a—"I cut him off by taking a step forward, leaning over to his ears. "You can fuck me in the car. I don't mind." I whispered. A smirk curved up his lips when I jerked away."You want your scream to echo all over the car?" he raised a brow. Trust me, I don't mind. The guys already knew what was going on between Angelo and I. I was damn wet and aroused. The only way to feel better is by Angelo f
Alessia My eyes scanned the beautiful office that has all sorts of fashion patterns design, wall art, and awards. "You haven't met the woman yet, but you're sweating already." I glared at Marco who had been chewing gum and pressing on his phone since our arrival at Mrs. Martinez's office. "I am not sweating. Mind your business." I hissed out. I don't even know why Angelo chose him. Of all people. Kelvin or Elijah would've been better. Not a big mouth like Marco. Who can't stop teasing me about last night in the car."Save your sweat for your hot night with Angelo later." This time around I didn't hold myself back. I lunged my fist on his back resulting in a chuckle to erupt from him. "I will have Angelo deal with you when we get back."He lifted his shoulder in a shrug. "He can't do shit. Why is the woman taking time to show up? We have been here for more than ten minutes." Marco glanced at the closed door. I knew Marco was right. I hadn't met the woman but I was already nervous. I
Alessia Up to the moment Angelo released his hold on me and turned me around to face him, my body was still weak. I didn't expect his question. Heck, the thought of going back home has not crossed my mind lately. Going back home means I will be with my family. I won't have to be chained down in one place filled with dangerous people. I will finally be freed. And will go back to my normal life. Why then do weakness and bitterness come with the feeling of freedom? It was what I've always wanted right? I searched Angelo's eyes for any sign that would show he was only joking around. But the expression on his face itself was confusing to me. I couldn't put a finger on what was going on in his head. Only the fact that his eyes were bloodshot. "Do you mean your words?" I asked in a low voice wanting to be so sure I heard him correctly.He nodded his head with a weak smile which I didn't fail to notice. "Yes, Alessia. I want to set you free. What you've always wanted. To return home to your
AlessiaI kept reminding myself that I didn't care about Angelo. He can do whatever he wants to do and I can do whatever I want to do. What I cared about at the moment was the project I was working on. It's been two days already since our last conversation. Some part of me expected him to run over to me or act as if the conversation didn't take place. But what happened was beyond my expectations. Angelo didn't even care about my existence. He acted as if I wasn't even there. The rest of the guys noticed. They knew something was up but no one wants to tell me the fuck that was going on with him. How he changed overnight. I had decided to work my ass off and make sure the fashion runway was a success, when I get paid, I will leave his fucking house. Just like Marco has been doing two days ago, he picked me up from Mrs. Martinez's fashion industry after we had gone through some budget and plans regarding how the event would be. They were right when they said the woman was short-tempered
Angelo"Are you going to let her leave just like that?" A furious Marco busted through the door."Not now, Marco," I said as calmly as I could muster busying myself with arranging my desk which wasn't messy. I just needed something to distract me with whatever shit Marco may have running in his brain."What exactly is wrong with you, Angelo?""It's boss for you Marco. Address me with respect!" I spat, looking up at him with all seriousness in my eyes. Marco was taken aback. The way his eyes were widened to a certain degree showed he wasn't expecting my outburst. I was also surprised at my behavior for the past two days. It was hard to keep on a facade you're not used to.A scoff mixed with an annoyed chuckle found its way out of him. "I now understand why you're all alone, Angelo. You don't care about other people's feelings but yourself. You made her fall for you, gave her hope and now you're sending her away as if nothing happened between you two. I didn't know you were this selfish
AlessiaKissing Angelo had never felt so passionate and scary at the same time as it did at that moment. I am not an emotional wreck person. When my first boyfriend left me, it didn't break me that much. But the cold treatment from Angelo had messed up my heart. I know what I feel for him was genuine. I didn't expect to fall for him in such a way. But here I was, holding on to his shirt, not wanting to let go. Wanting the kiss to continue for eternity. Wishing so badly for him to tell me to stay. A lone tear slid down my cheeks as I gripped his shirt more tightly deepening the kiss. I gave him every entrance to explore my lips. However, that was short-lived when Angelo suddenly pulled away, leaving me craving more of the kiss. More of his touch. "Take care of yourself."His farewell settled in my head with a resounding beating of my chest. His face was away from me. I wished so badly that I would see his face clearly for the last time. To have it stored in my brain for the rest of th
AlessiaSix months later"Listen here young woman, you promised to deliver it today. We even signed an agreement so that nothing like this would happen. How can a wedding take place without a cake?" I spared a pacing around Annie a look talking through the phone as she vented her anger at the person from the other end.She stopped pacing and scoffed. "Are you kidding me? You want me to wait for an extra half an hour? Are you sure you're not a fake baker? If only I'm not busy right now. I would have come right there and give you a piece of my mind myself.""Sorry won't fix this woman! You wasted my time. What will my best girl think of me now? How can she go to the wedding venue with half-baked decorations? I'm giving half an hour, If you don't get the cake ready, then expect police at your door!" Annie ended the call and threw it on the vanity mirror."Calm down little tigress. Why are you getting worked up so early in the morning." I said adjusting my sitting position on the bed whil
AlessiaI didn't know how long I had been pacing around the hospital hallway. I was sweating profoundly and my heart was pounding so fast that I was afraid it would pop out of its socket. Seeing the way Angelo's body lifeless body was being carried to the emergency room really scared me to the core. I couldn't find the tears to shed due to how shocked I was. I could only pray. Pray for his recovery. He would be operated on immediately because there was nothing to hold him. At some point, I was glad the hospital was able to get a donor for him. Even though they said it's not guaranteed that it won't cause complications. What mattered to me was to see Angelo back to life. Angelo's mom broke down in tears and requested the doctors to take her kidney. But the doctors declined knowing it would cause more harm than good. We held on to the hope that the surgery would be a success. We were all gathered around. From Angelo's mom, and Annie's parents. Lillian, Kelvin, Elijah, and Marco. I kne
Alessia Two days later"Is everything ready?" Annie popped her head through the curtain she was hiding. "If you're not ready then let's back out. I told you to hide. What if he comes inside now." I threw her a glare.Annie had asked me to help her in making Kelvin confess. I mean I do believe he would do that when he's ready but Annie doesn't want to buy my idea saying unless she pushes him to, he won't take a step and she doesn't want to be the one to do that. We have been coming up with plans for the past two days which hasn't been going through. The first one was a dinner which Kelvin called in for an emergency at the last minute. The second one, Lillian helped too. But it still didn't go well.We then decided to kick him by the ass this time around. Annie would hide behind the curtains while I would attack Kelvin with questions and he'd possibly have no choice but to confess his love. What we did was pretend Annie was sick. "Go." I hushed her when I heard the sound of steps app
AlessiaThe next morning, I left Angelo to rest while I went to his mother's room to check up on her. Annie's mom was the one I met together with her helping her with her hair. "Let me do that." I offered approaching them.Annie's mom handed the elastic hair band to me. We switched positions. I gathered her hair in one place since it was already washed and combed. "How is Angelo?" Came her question. I briefly stopped but continued afterward. "He looks fine. I'm sure he would be." I answered shortly. I rolled her hair into a bun, smoothening the front with my palms. "Thank you. Let me go and check up on him." he declared getting off the bed."I will be right back." I didn't miss to notice the excitement in her voice. Annie's mom and I watched as she slowly made her way out of the door. It would be the first conversation between a mother and son. I hope everything goes well. I silently prayed.Annie later entered the room and took me away with her. She didn't say anything, only grabbed
Alessia I slid the door open and slowly stepped inside, the room was warm but instead, I felt cold engulfing my body as I fixed my eyes on Angelo's form on the bed. He regained consciousness an hour ago. I didn't want to see him then because I was still battling with pain and betrayal. I knew I would fight him off if I had seen him immediately. So, I allowed Kelvin and Annie to see him first until I had composed myself. Angelo sensed a presence in the room, making him to lift his head. The moment our eyes met each other, the tears I'd been hoarding it summoned itself out. I pushed myself forward to his bed. "Hi." He muttered in a weak voice. I kept my gaze on him. I know I told myself I would go all soft but looking at how weak he was demolished the patience I had left inside. "I am not here to exchange greetings with you." He chuckled lightly. "I know you're angry at me." "Yes, I am. I am fuming with rage. I want to hit you so badly for keeping this away from me. Do you think y
AlessiaMy patience had gone thin. It's been hours since Angelo left and he hadn't returned. I don't know why I was feeling bad about everything. Like something was going to happen. The way my heart was thumping inside its rib cage was abnormal. I hope things will go smoothly and Angelo will come back home unhurt. Angelo's mom had gone to sleep after our conversation. I was glad the woman was ready to patch things up with her son. She was ready to be a good mother to him and even prayed for his safe return. The house was still fully guarded with Angelo's men. I even spoke to my parents back home and my mother. But that wasn't enough to elevate the worry inside me. I couldn't sit. The only thing I was doing was pacing around the living, waiting for a call from Angelo or seeing him walk through the door. I felt a hand on my shoulder making me to turn and see Annie standing. "Aren't your legs heavy?" "I'm fine," I answered shortly. "You said that thirty minutes ago. I feel like you s
Angelo "I will go in there first, the moment you get the call from Marco, you blow their empire off," I instructed Kelvin."Yes Sir. Let's spread around guys!" Kelvin clapped his hands to our men. I have implanted some at the warehouse. The weapons that are being kept at the warehouse will be what I will use in bringing Dominic and Enzo down. I had gathered enough evidence already. I ain't going to waver this time around. I had hesitated enough. It's high time I put an end to everything. To prove to my mom that I would be there for her. It doesn't matter whether she still hates me. I will put an end to everything and relieve the guilt inside her.As Kelvin retreated to their den where they would await my orders, I made my way inside Dominic's house. We agreed to meet at his house including Enzo. His men were also parading around. But that won't stop me from carrying out what I intended to do. I will go smoothly with them and if they still don't go by my books, I will go hard. I me
AlessiaWhen we landed in Italy, Elijah picked us up at the airport and we went straight to Angelo's mother's house. Angelo had been calm all the while but I know how much the situation hurts me. He made a few phone calls to tighten the security around. The house was guarded with security all around with their guns. They all bowed down to Angelo in respect. Annie, her mom, and Marco were the ones we met in the living room. They were surprised to see us because we didn't inform them we would be coming. Annie rushed up to me and hugged me. "You guys didn't call.""We had to rush here.""I'm sorry Angelo for not telling you about Aunt's situation." Annie apologized to Angelo with her head cast down."It's not your fault. Where is she?" I know he was eager to see her mother. And I hope she'll give him a chance to see her."She's in her room. She doesn't want to talk to anyone. Please talk to her Angelo." Annie almost panicked as she said that.I saw Angelo's jaw clenched. "It's fine.""
AlessiaIn a matter of seconds, Angelo's hot lips were all over my body. I shifted my head to the side to give him more access. It has been long since my body got so hot because of his touch. With his lips still showering hot kisses on my body, he pushed us to the bed with his big body atop mine."I fucking missed your body." He whispered as he slightly pulled away. Nothing was dancing in his eyes but pure lust mixed with love. Yes, I know Angelo loves me as much as I do. No more pretense between us."I'm going to go insane if I don't touch each and every inch of your body today. But I'm scared of your parents hearing your moans through this wall." A chuckle didn't fail to escape me."What happened to I don't get a dime what people think? I thought you said that at the airport.""I did and I meant my word. But it would look weird to have that serious conversation and then fuck his daughter that same day in his house." My smile widened. I was happy about the fact that Angelo respect my
