Alessia

The amount of fear that coursed through me when a gun was being pointed at my head couldn't be measured. What I see in movies and read in books is happening to me. I could feel the sound of my heart thumping straight in my ears. I don't know the relationship between Angelo and Dominic, but with their interaction, the two aren't on good terms.

"I am warning you, Dominic," I heard Angelo say, gripping the man's collar tightly. The man who was pointing the gun at me did the same.

"Please let me go. I promise I will pretend I didn't see anything," I pleaded, tears clouding my vision. I wanted nothing but to see myself out of here. I want to go home. This isn't the kind of life I want to venture into.

Dominic suddenly jerked his body from Angelo's hold and then fixed his eyes on me. "You want to be spared?" He asked.

"Please..." I muttered again, not sure whether any of them heard me.

Dominic began taking slow steps towards me when Angelo blocked him. The two shared a heated look. I

    AlessiaI thought my body had warmed up from the shower I took. However, it was quickly replaced by a sudden heat that engulfed my entire body. I gulped down my saliva, trying as much as I could not to stare at his nakedness, but that was to no avail. My head literally turned. I took another gulp of saliva. "If you're done feeding your eyes, you can let go," he said.In the process of finding something to hold onto for support while standing up, I accidentally gripped his member instead. "Fuck!" He exclaimed."I'm... I..." I tried to form the words, but they sounded heavy on my lips. I turned my face towards the other side of the room while Angelo pulled up his pants."Acting as if it's your first time seeing a well-built man naked," he remarked. I didn't resist rolling my eyes. He's giving himself too much hype. But well, I still couldn't help but admire the sight of his body. Looking at him up closely, he wasn't that bad. Did I just say bad? He's perfect. He has a perfect broad shou

    AngeloAnger surged through me when Kevin came back and relayed Alessia's message. I don't know what makes her think she can defy me, just because I was going easy on her lately. "What do you want me to do, Sir?" Kevin's question got my attention. I was seated at my desk with the desktop in front of me, monitoring everything that was going on in the house, including Alessia's room. I know it's invading her privacy, but I don't trust her enough. The woman is stubborn.You don't trust her enough, yet you were moved by her tears last night. A voice in my head rang, which I quickly discarded, not wanting to recall how I found myself in her room after she ran out of the dining room, leaving her dinner unfinished.I'm normally not one to be moved by fake tears of people who pretend they care when all they do in the end is stab you in the back. They're all the same. No one is an exemption. I had wanted to walk away when I saw she was fast asleep. The cold blowing from the open blinders, coup

    AlessiaMy cheeks were burning hot as I closed the door behind me and leaned my back on it. Why did I respond to the kiss? What has gotten over me? I even went as far as to moan when he touched me. I was supposed to be angry at him for taking my first kiss away, so why do I feel butterflies in my stomach instead? I should be mad at him for not wanting to release me.My hand slowly trailed the lines of my lips as the memories of how I was indulged in Angelo’s kiss flooded back. “Pull yourself together, Alessia!” I shook my head and discarded the thoughts.I was going to hop into bed when my stomach decided to remind me of its hunger. Great. Going downstairs means I will see Angelo, and that will remind me of the kiss. “Who cares! I’m not that hungry after all. I can manage,” I muttered, heading towards the bed.I bite my bottom lip as I descend the stairs. I couldn’t ignore my hunger. Why should I even be in hiding when I didn’t do anything wrong? He was the one who kissed me.But you

    Alessia I bite my bottom lip for the thousandth time, shaking my head on the accord. Angelo seemed calm as he munches on his food. He had the audacity to sit calmly after what he put me through last night. Marco was the only one present with us. The urge to bring up the topic grew inside me, and I did. "Don't you think you have something to say to me?" I asked, dropping my fork."Who..." Marco trailed off, earning a glare from me in return. "I'm talking to your boss, not you.""I have nothing to say to you," Angelo spoke up, his eyes meeting mine. Suddenly, I lost the words in my mouth. His eyes reminded me of last night. How they burned holes in my head. How I almost indulged myself in the pool of his eyes. I couldn't take him to his room because of his heavy body. Instead, I dragged him up to my bed and allowed him to take most of the bed space.When I woke up in the morning, he wasn't in bed. And now, with him seated calmly, he's telling me he has nothing to tell me."I'm sure a

    AngeloThe room was charged with heat. Not the one from the closed windows, but the steam coming from the spanner burning red from the charcoal. I looked at the man tied on the chair, covered with bruises all over his body. I was planning on giving him more.“Looks like you haven’t gotten enough bruise on your body. Do you want me to give you a tattoo?” I asked, leaning over to him.“I-” He parted his lips to speak, but no words came out. His face was all covered in blood. “Kevin.” I stretched out my hand. Kevin, in command, passed the hot spanner to me. The man’s eyes widened he he saw the hot spanner coming towards him.“I want to see how handsome you will look with tattoos all over your face. How do you see it?”He shook his head, wriggling on the chair. The more stubborn he is, the more torture he’d receive. By the time I torture the life out of him, he won’t have anyone to save him. Not the man he works for.“You know I don’t give second chances. I would say you are lucky to be a

    AlessiaI watched as Angelo walked away without uttering a single word. "What was that? He can't even say good morning," I said to no one. He was out of sight like a flash.What do you even expect, Alessia?Well, I shouldn't expect any kindness from him. The kiss we shared last night might mean nothing to him. The way he reacted just now showed it all. I should rather blame myself for enjoying the kiss and even wanting more.I shook my head, discarding whatever fantasy my brain was about to summon. I had overthought a lot last night. Sleep didn't engulf me fast. I kept on thinking, mainly about the kiss.As I descended, I met with Angelo and his three men standing. "Don't make dinner with us. We'd eat out," I heard Angelo say. He didn't cast a look in my direction and walked away. At some point, I felt a tinge of disappointment at his cold treatment."Where are they heading to?" I asked the maid Lilian, who was packing the plates she brought out to serve Angelo and his men, leaving on

    AlessiaThe tension in the room grew two-fold as I battled with the urge not to close the tiny gap between our faces. It was hard not to give in to the temptation. I finally mustered the courage and jerked away, maintaining enough distance. "I'm going to bed," was what I said, turning my back to him. My heart was still racing inside. This wasn't supposed to be what I should be feeling. Anger should be my feelings towards him, not the other way around.The moment his hand circled my wrist, I knew I wouldn't be able to hold myself back anymore. Angelo's lips came down on mine in a demanding manner. I wasted no time in parting my lips and also wrapping my arms around his neck. I moaned into the kiss as our bodies went down the bed. Angelo pulled away slightly. "You don't have the right to decide what I do with my lips. And you can't decide when I should kiss you and when I shouldn't," he whispered.The way he said it sent heat through my body. At that moment, I didn't even care about his

    Angelo“So, tell me what brought you here to Italy? I thought you were enjoying touring the world,” I asked as Annie said followed me to my study room after dinner. Annie is my cousin, my aunt’s daughter. I wouldn’t say we grew up together, but she spent many of her holidays with us. Annie is a prestigious writer who sold a thousand copies of her debut novel.“Don’t even say you’re here for inspiration. Why can’t you stay in one place to get inspiration? You don’t have to travel around,” I remarked.She scoffed, rolling her eyes. “You didn’t even give me time to explain.”“Okay, go on. Explain to me,” I urged.Leaning over the desk, she began, “Well... I’m here because I’ve missed you.”I rolled my eyes. “Don’t feed me lies. Who are you chasing this time?”Annie had always been a popular girl. With crushes from every direction. And she doesn’t stay in one place when it comes to men. She like a guy today, next morning, she would dump him.“Argh! Why don’t you believe me? I’m here becau

    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
