ENZO DE-LUCAThis isn’t right.I smiled as Maeve happily took my hand and even though I was always more steps ahead of her whenever we walked, she was right in front of me right now.She walked so care-freely and I felt my chest tighten as I watched her walk like she was a little girl that had just been promised candy or her favorite Barbie doll.This doesn’t feel right, this feeling in my chest, this warm glow that enveloped my entire being doesn’t seem right. It doesn’t make sense.Just when I make a promise to myself to steer clear of her, I find myself getting drawn to her even more. She’s not supposed to be more than my slut.She’s not supposed to be more than a tool for my satisfaction, my cum rag, my cocksleeve but somehow, somehow I’m starting to see her as something more.I’d stupidly opened my mouth and told her that I was in love with her. Why would I do that? Why in the world did I do that?She’s caught my eyes in so many ways and that’s all shades of wrong because my eyes
MAEVE HAWTHORN.His eyes were fiery and red with obvious rage, it was clear that nothing I said would get him to spend one more minute in the room.“Every single one of them is going to die.” He said through gritted teeth as he walked. The air around him was so cold that it sent chills running down my spine.This is the exact state that I do not want to see Enzo De-Luca in because when he’s like this then there’s no telling what he’s going to do.There’s no telling what he’s capable of. I shook when I looked down to see Levi bleeding profusely, his blood was all over my hand.The sound of the door slamming told me that Enzo had walked out already, “there’s no time! I need the first aid box and a bottle of vodka.” I ordered the men who sprung into action.“I also need someone to call an ambulance!” I added and it didn’t take long for all of them to start doing as I’d said.I’ve never seen so much blood before and the sight of it right now was sending me over the edge. My stomach was cl
MAEVE HAWTHORN.I didn’t expect that I was going to be able to talk to Levi on a deeper level. I could still feel my heart in my throat and it’s not because I was scared of him.There’s no disputing the fact that I’m scared, I’m extremely scared of the kind of feelings I have for Enzo and how badly it was going to affect him.‘I have to show him that he’s worth loving, huh?’ I muttered to myself as I sat on the chair right beside Levi’s table as if I was going to lose my life if I stood up.I’d already told him that I didn’t want to leave him and I guess that can translate to me being in love with him and frankly, I can’t shake off these feelings inside of me.Why does Levi have to pour all of these out to me when my feelings are such a mess?Do I really want to get deeply involved with a man like Enzo? Saying what I did at the dining table means I already know all the risks and yet, I’m diving deep into the danger.It means that I would have to be the one to take responsibility for w
MAEVE HAWTHORN.Gasping, I managed to share my location with Scarlett as I laid on the bed, curled up like a wet, homeless cat as I waited for my best friend to get here.She’s the only one that can get me through this, she’s been with me through thick and thin and the fact that she knows just what to do whenever I’m down in the slump is what makes her my best friend.My chest feels tight and my heart was heavy as I clutched my chest and bawled my eyes out like a little baby while imagining the worst case scenarios.What’s wrong with me? A week or so ago, I wouldn’t have cared.The ruckus outside caught my attention and slowly, I walked out of my room and down the stairs to see that it was my best friend throwing a fit.“LET ME IN, YOU FUCKING SONS OF A BITCH!” She cursed through her teeth as she pulled her shoe off and threw it at one of the men while trying to force her way in.Seeing her fling her bag around without caring who it hits, seeing her be so chaotic made me chuckle and I
MAEVE HAWTHORN.His gaze lifted as he looked right at me and I gasped, my phone dropping from my hand when I saw the total mess his face was.If I hadn’t seen him badly injured before I probably wouldn’t have been able to recognize him but even with the knowledge of how injured he is, I couldn’t believe Enzo De-Luca could be badly injured.Covering my mouth with my palm, I took a step towards him but a violent, remotely loud growl caused me to stop in my tracks.I felt cold chills run down my spine as I stood, impaled to a spot. It was almost as though he didn't want me in the same room with him anymore.Like he doesn’t want me to come closer to him and now that I think about it, he isn’t looking at me even though he looked like he was staring right at me, I could tell that he wasn’t looking at me.“Y— You— You’re hurt.” I muttered, breaking the shackles that bound me to the spot I was standing and making my way closer to him.“You’re seriously hurt, you should get the doctor to—”“Th
ENZO DE-LUCA.“Wasn’t that too harsh? You could’ve at least taken things a little bit—” “Shut up or I’m really going to put a pillow over your face and smother you to death.” I cut Levi shut as I leaned back on the chair with my palm over my eyes.What have I done? Really, what have I done?This isn’t right, I want to protect her but humiliating her like that and shooting her down when she’s done nothing but care about me is just straight up cruel.“Ahh,” I sighed, wincing due to the pain that coursed through me, my head was aching really badly and my eyes were almost closed.I couldn’t even see her properly when she’d come in but I could tell that she looked as beautiful as ever.The fear, worry and relief in her eyes when she saw me made me wither inside because it’s the first time someone, a woman, had cared enough to look at me like that.And instead of holding onto her like I wanted to, instead of taking a very strong whiff of her strawberry-like scent and recharging in her arms
MAEVE HAWTHORN.“Wait, I can’t believe it,” Scarlett said, her disbelief showing on her face as one of her brows shot up, “he hasn’t spoken to you since that day?” She asked and I nodded affirmatively.It’s been a week since then and Enzo has been avoiding me like I was some sort of plague. I wake up early every morning to talk to him but he’d be gone before I could reach him.I no longer have access to his room because he had told his men to stop me whenever I was going into his room and that room where we spent our night together the last time, I could no longer go in there.The room was filled with lots of memories and sometimes when I go in there, I feel like I could feel Enzo, I could feel his hands touching me like they did that night.It feels as though I could feel his body on mine, his cock thrusting into my wet, waiting and eager cunt but that’s all it ever was, a memory.A memory that I no longer want to remember because the last time I saw him, I saw a look so cold in his
I was happy to see him, excited even but he doesn’t seem to share the same level of excitement that I had.His green eyes were cold, his gaze on me was hard. His look was as sharp as knives and I could feel my heart in my throat just looking at him.“W— what? Why?” I asked, chuckling nervously as I looked into his frantic eyes but he only arched an eyebrow, licked his lips and walked closer to him.He exuded a powerful, formidable aura and with each step that he took closer to me, I could actually feel my stomach curling and fear spreading through my being.What happened to him? Why did he get so cold?“Do I need to have a reason to fuck my slut?” He asked, his tone negative and his voice devoid of any kind of warmth.I felt my jaw drop as he stopped in front of me, my mouth opened but I could barely think of anything coherent to say as I looked up at him.I felt intimidated and overpowering that feeling of sheer intimidation was terror like no other and an embarrassment that I never
MAEVE HAWTHORN.Her face was buried in his chest and they were both covered in blood. My eyes went wide and I felt anger knotting in my stomach as I stared at him.I shouldn’t be mad, I should be glad that he’s fine and there’s probably a reason he was holding her like that, something probably happened and I shouldn’t be angry but I couldn’t control.My teeth gritted and I felt my stomach curl in both pain and anger, my nostrils flared in fury as a cloud darkened my mind, thunder rattling my thoughts but despite it all, I forced myself to smile.“Welcome home, Enzo.” I said, swallowing all of the rage that was welling up in my throat but the disgust I felt seeing another woman in my man’s arms was so powerful I couldn’t ignore it.“I’m back,” he responded, his voice was low, rough, dull and tired, “I should have come to get you but I couldn’t leave Yvette alone, she got injured in the clash.” He explained and I nodded.“I’m sorry, I was—”“It’s fine, Enzo,” I cut in before he could fi
MAEVE HAWTHORN.The entire house was in a panic and the last thing I wanted was to let Enzo deal with that panic alone but I also knew that I was going to be getting in his way.“AHH!” I screamed, closing my eyes and covering both my ears when I heard the sound of a loud gunshot. Slowly, I opened my eyes to see that Enzo was completely gone.He had disappeared and I couldn’t see even the slightest trace of him in the hallway. My heart sank into my stomach right away.My breath caught in my throat and I could feel myself shaking like a fucking wet leaf as disturbing images built up in my head and I just couldn’t.That’s the father of my baby!“ENZ—”“No!” Clara said firmly, her hand clamping down on mine as she started pulling me down the hallway and towards the same room the women and men that couldn’t really handle violence were all heading too.“Something bad is going to happen, I can’t let him go there alone.” The words rushed out of my mouth as I struggled in Clara’s firm hold but
ENZO DE-LUCA.Her eyes were wide as she stared at me, it was evident that she was stunned, her tongue was absolutely tied and I swear I wanted to wait until she was ready to tell me but I couldn’t.My excitement was way beyond my ability to conceal and knowing how much I needed to learn, I wanted to get to work as soon as possible.I wanted to be there for every doctor’s appointment, for every morning, afternoon, evening or night sickness, I want to learn how to help her handle the mood swings she was going to be getting.Scrolling through the internet and I’ve learned a lot, I’ve learned that the pregnancy hormones are far stronger than the menstrual hormones and there would be days when she would just want me out of her hair because I’m annoying.I want to experience every single moment.“I know you’re pregnant and really, I was going to wait for you to tell me at your own time but there’s no way I can act like I don’t know anything.” I sighed as I sat up.Maeve was still in shock,
ENZO DE-LUCA.“What?” She looked shocked as I impaled myself next to her and placed my head on her shoulder, “what are you talking about?” She added.“I mean, I thought about it and my answer changed,” I responded, “having a baby is still scary but if you’re the woman carrying that baby then I don’t think I have to worry.” I paused.“I swear it sounded better in my head and not as if I wanted you as a breeder or anything of the sort, I just thought about having a mini you and that changed my mind.” I explained.Silence settled in the room and even the silence was so loud that I could not only hear my heart beating so fast but I could hear hers too and the chatter between my men downstairs.I wanted her to say something, to tell me that she still wanted my baby but my little flame didn’t say anything and I was left with thinking I’ve really ruined everything.“I know what I said the other day annoyed you and you’ve probably not forgiven me for it but I swear I had my own reasons even t
ENZO DE-LUCA.“Are you sure you’re okay?” I asked as I helped Maeve get out of the bathroom, I knew something was off about her, she’s been falling sick a lot lately but whenever I bring up the hospital, she would just change the subject.I could see her nipples protruding even though she was wearing one of the thickest shirts I own and her skin looks paler than usual, the outline of her boobs was enough to tell me how big it had gotten.That can’t be normal and not just that but even her favorite food seems to be irritating her now, she hates hearing some kinda voices and even I have to walk on eggshells around her.It’s scary and when I asked AI, it came up with tons of possibilities but the only one that wouldn’t stop ringing in my head is the possibility of pregnancy.She can’t be pregnant now, not when she had asked about what my reaction would be three days ago and I’d completely freaked out.THREE DAYS AGO.“Enzo?” Maeve called and I almost jumped because it was way past midnig
MAEVE HAWTHORN.Taking Enzo’s hand, both of us walked out of the house and he held the door open for me. His hand didn’t leave my thigh until we got to the restaurant.It was luxurious, everything, including the staff screamed excess luxury and I just couldn’t wrap my head around how he keeps finding places like this.Not that I should be surprised but each time I feel like nothing he does could surprise me anymore, he does not only surprise me but turns me on in the process.“What do you think?” Enzo asked as I kept my gaze fixed on the restaurant built like it was a penthouse, no word could have described what I thought.It was magnificent, magical and the interior made me feel like I’d completely left earth and was on another planet.“This way please.” A feminine voice put a halt to my thoughts and I held Enzo even tighter as I followed the waitress to wherever she was leading us to.I could tell this was the VIP section because only a few people were there and the light was dimly-
MAEVE HAWTHORN.“Which do you think I should wear today? I want him to be taken by surprise when he sees me.” I said, holding up two different dresses for Scarlett and Clara to choose.Everyday after that night at the beach has been nothing but bliss, it’s been more than a month now and Enzo and I are still going strong.My closet has been filled up with dresses, hoodies and T-shirts that he either got from me or I stole from him and I just felt like my life had never been better.When I told Scarlett and Clara about the new development, they had the same reaction even though they weren’t together when I told them.“The red one is sexy but I feel like the black is fierce and Enzo would definitely love it on you.” Clara said and Scarlett immediately nodded in agreement.Tonight is date night and he had gone out as usual to make preparations while I stayed back and just got ready for him to come pick me up.The thought of it made my heart flutter and even though I was so sure that nothi
ENZO DE-LUCA.“Why do you have to do this?” Maeve whined, hitting my chest as the tears poured down her cheeks uncontrollably, “I wasn’t prepared to cry tonight.” She added before standing on her tiptoe and slamming her lips against mine.I could feel the salty taste of her tears in my mouth as I kissed her and I closed my eyes to savor every taste of her, to get as much of her as I could possibly get.Wrapping my hands around her waist as she wrapped hers around my neck, I held her tightly, afraid to let go and I was glad that she didn’t try to get away from me.“I love you Enzo De-Luca,” she pulled out of the kiss long enough to say that before hugging me even tighter, “I LOVE YOU MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF!” She yelled so loud, I felt like my eardrums were going to blow up into smithereens.We just stood there, hugging each other and it felt like time stopped and the only sound that could be heard was the soft whoosh of the wind and the ocean.I felt refreshed, like a whole new person w
ENZO DE-LUCA.My eyes darted to my wristwatch and I sighed when I realized that we were already about two hours late to our reservation but I didn’t care.I wanted to spend the night with her doing something that doesn’t really involved fucking her and although I knew just how hard it would be, I knew I had to hold back.“I had about three places reserved for us but we’ve missed the first two, should we just go to the next one instead?” I asked as I got into the car with her.Maeve winced, she wasn’t really comfortable and I could tell that her pussy was already spurting out a mixture of our juices and it would definitely leave a big stain later.“Hmm Hmm.” She nodded, unable to speak as she took a deep breath and with one hand on her lap, I drove out of the building and directly to the beach restaurant I’d booked.It was the most romantic place out of all the three places I booked. I wanted to show and let her know that I was in this with her.I wanted to do something to assure her t
