Mia's POV

After he left me that day, leaving me extremely confused and lost, I wasn’t sure of what to think any longer.

He had also send someone to come get the ruined wedding dress a few hours after he had exited my bedroom, and I had hastily handed it over because merely looking at it was traumatizing enough.

I could never really fully wrap my head around this man and how he operates.

He was deadly and dangerous. I could tell so much about him from the way he acted, and I knew that human life meant very little to him. I could see that whenever he looked at me, he despised me with every fiber of his being.

But yet, he wouldn't kill me and he also wouldn't force himself on me, so what exactly did he want to do with me?

I didn't see him the next day or the day after that, so I started to take that time to catch my breath and I even decided later on to try and make friends with the woman that was bringing food to my room. I realized after a while of trying to bring up conversations with

    Mia's POV "A good person…" I repeated after Maria as if that was the first time I've ever heard those words being used, while also trying to imagine Lorenzo in my head as a supposedly good person.The word ‘good’ and Lorenzo in the same sentence seems like the most unbelievable combination to ever exist.Even though he was yet to hurt me, he has shown me several times that it was not something that was difficult for him to do, but for some reason, he always seemed to hesitate when it came to me. I had concluded that it was just part of his mind games.Because, that most definitely hadn’t made him a good person in my books.The more time that I had spent in the house and I kept hearing his name over and over, I realized that it actually rang a bell.Actually, it rang several times. When I was living back with my parents, I had heard his name several times but I had not paid much attention to it. However, his name was always spoken with a tone of fear between harsh whispers.I decided

    Mia's POV When we were finally on the road, his eyes left me and were fixed on the asphalt path that was in front of him, I felt as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulder when he stopped looking at me because I could never really read what was in his eyes except for the intense contempt and anger that would occasionally slip through, and some other flicker of emotion which I genuinely have no idea on how to interpret them.However, it was becoming awkward to remain in the car with him especially when we stopped at red lights because the silence in the car would become even more intense that after a certain point I was tempted to bring up conversation about the weather inorder to break the silence even if it was just for a little while.But he broke the silence before me."You are my property now,"That was definitely not how I expected the conversation to start but since it was coming from him, it made a lot of sense as messed up as that sounded.I fiddled with my fingers as I tr

    Mia's POV The next house that we went to was even bigger than the last and it had more people. The realization that this meant that the little privacy that I had before would be completely evaporated because of this, made my mood drastically."We are going shopping in about half an hour," He said as he walked past me, after telling a maid to show me to my room that had been prepared before my arrival.No. I couldn't let things go like this even, if I was a prisoner. I still had some say in my own life and so before he could take another step, I grabbed him or at least I tried to grab his hand but was only able to catch a bundle of his V neck top.He looked back at me instantly; it was as if everything froze when he asked me what I was currently doing with my fingers on his shirt. I hastily bit my bottom lip, wondering if this was a good idea to begin with. I didn’t want him to yell at me but then my frustration of living like a lifeless doll overpowered my fear at that moment."Can

    Mia's POV “This is too short, where do you think we are going to? A club?""No this is tight, you'll probably suffocate in this before the night is over…""... This one is supposed to be a joke, right?"When we finally arrived at the mall and headed towards a boutique that was literally screaming luxury and expensive even before we stepped in, it was as if the conversation that we were having was allowing me to make some choices about which clothes to pick.I went to the changing room and Lorenzo followed me instantly. Everywhere surprisingly looked scanty. A few people whom I had noticed as I walked by, had all been wearing the same shirts. I figured that it was a uniform and that they were probably working here at the boutique, since it had the logo of the boutique plastered against their backs.It was surprising that customers were not flowing in and out of here like water. Perhaps, they were all scared away by the absurd prices of each clothes.As I was thinking about it, I chuck

    Mia's POV The moment his blue eyes focused on me like laser rays, I felt a bolt of awareness course through my body instantly.He had not really paid me much attention after I had stepped out of the spa, or while I was getting ready, because he had been so focused on his phone.But now that he was looking at me like this, it was as if it was the first time he was seeing me. I instantly felt self conscious, because even his men would see how he was literally trying to drill a hole through my body with his eyes alone.It was so bad that one of them had to walk up to him and ask him if they were going to the party or not.He seemed to have woken up from a dream as his eyes snapped over to the tall man that had spoken to him."I don't remember saying that we weren't going, so of course we are all going. All of you should get ready…"He then turned over to me and he looked like he was about to say something, but his eyes only once again raked my entire body up and down, right before he ave

    Mia's POV The man looked utterly embarrassed as if he had expected Lorenzo to laugh along with him and honestly I had expected the same as well since he never seems to abandon an opportunity to put me down most of the time.But now it was almost as if he was defending me and I felt my heart flutter a little bit because it felt like the first time in my entire life that anyone was truly doing that, my twin and mother aside. The man apologized and then crept into the crowd and buried himself with them with utter shame.Without thinking about it too much, I turned around and thanked Lorenzo for doing that for me."What makes you think that I did that for you?" He asked me with a dismissive voice and instantly, the smile on my face evaporated. Will it have been so difficult for him to simply say the normal reply instead of being rude?His eyes were always darting around as if he was looking for something and then finally, they seem to go when a waiter was passing us by, but then the wai

    Lorenzo's pov Why was she looking at me like that with those green doeish eyes which were ridiculously mesmerizing as fuck.For a moment, I considered just ignoring the meeting and staying with her, but that would be completely ridiculous. I was needed at the meeting for a lot of reasons and I knew that I would make a lot of people uncomfortable by just attending so of course, I needed to do so.As I finally left her side, I took one last look around he hall where the party was being held and some of my men strategically-placed in different directions, enough to give her space to enjoy the party but then with enough proximity that they would all be shielding her in case things went south at any time.Finally, I left her side and after breaking my way through the crowd moving up a flight of stairs and then spinning around a little bit, following the directions that the waiter had left in the encrypted note. I was standing in front of a steel door sometime later. I opened the door and t

    Mia's POV As soon as Lorenzo left, I felt like the people that were looking at me instantly multiplied.It was as if some of them had tried to be cautious when he was by my side, but the moment he left, they were all trying to dig through my skin with their eyes.I was able to swipe a glass of wine from one of the men that was serving and just focused on sipping it, but as soon as I remembered Lorenzo’s countless warnings about not drinking anything, I instantly spat the drink back into the cup, hoping that no one had caught that.Suddenly I felt somebody tapping me on my shoulder and I turned around.There were two pretty women behind me who looked about 5 years older than me and they were dressed quite extravagantly as well. One of them was a blonde with her hair up in a high ponytail and the other was a brunette with low cut hair.Both of them were wearing the widest smiles that I have ever seen in my life. It looked like the corner of their lips were trying to pass through thei

    Mia’s pov “I had a lover back then, I kept it away from you because I wasn’t sure you’d approve. He was a little bit older back then, but was very good looking and brilliant. We were in love. After I realized that I was betrothed to Mr. Romero, he suggested we eloped, he was ready to turn his back on his family for me, and I followed him, because well, our lives were already miserable, so I took the first outing I saw. It killed me doing that because then I knew you’d be subjected to my fate, but I just had to be selfish, you know?”As she spoke, I felt shocked to the core on realizing that I really didn’t know my twin like I used to think.It made me feel chills run down my spine as I stared at her right now.I used to think we were best friends, that we didn’t keep secrets from each other. But, it’s very clear that I had been wrong.“I wouldn’t have been selfish though. I’d never have done that to you,” I ended up whispering after a few moments because it was the truth. That was

    Mia’s pov “There’s a little traffic but we should be at our destination in no time.” One of my guards who was today’s designated driver called out and I nodded in response, flashing him a warm smile.“Of course, thank you.”I relaxed into my seat after that, letting my mind wander around. I had left the house almost two hours ago, because I wanted to get something for Lorenzo amongst other things. Lorenzo had taken it upon himself to make my birthday the best day I’ve ever experienced in my entire life, and till now, it still manages to make me giddy whenever I think about it.It started with a birthday sex. Lorenzo said that’s the best way to celebrate being a year older and I really couldn’t agree more. After that, we went to the various locations Lorenzo had listed out. He managed to arrange surprises in every single location that I kept smiling from ear to ear as we exited each location. It felt insane to even comprehend. He showered me with so many gifts that still makes

    Lorenzo’s pov I found myself drawing up into a sitting position along with her. Her eyes were wide open and she was staring straight ahead. Her mouth were parted in what I’d term as shock, and I wasn’t sure of what to make of her reaction to the brought up topic.Wasn’t I supposed to bring it up? Or, is this also a part of the bunch of stuff she read online?“Is something wrong?” I asked as I reached for her hand. Her eyes were still blown wide when it locked with mine.“I- I didn’t come to your office, it wasn’t me at all, I swear.” She breathed out, grip tight around my fingers. I nodded my head as I tried getting her to relax.“It wasn’t a bad thing, Mia. We were just having fun, weren’t we? Is this also a part of the stuff you read online? For you to act this way when the topic gets brought up, hm?” I asked, watching as her eyes widened even more before she frantically shook her head.“No, no. Lorenzo, you’re not getting what I’ve been saying. You’re yet to understand.” She be

    Lorenzo’s pov Mia’s lips were slightly parted as she slept peacefully atop me. We had been lazily discussing about a bunch of random things before she slowly drifted off to sleep. I was sitting on the couch in the sitting room and she was perched over my laps, curled up in a cute ball. I felt my heart sting flutter a little as I let my gaze wander over inch of her face.She was so gorgeous that it sometimes hurts to look at, it makes me wonder how her peers hadn’t been ridiculously jealous of her while they had all been growing up together.She let out a small yawn as she snuggled into me even more, causing me to smile fondly as I reached out to brush the small strand off her out of her face.I was madly, stupidly, ridiculously in love with her that it was ridiculous to sometimes to think about. It was ridiculous before it had never crossed my mind that I’d one day ever have this much raw, intense person got someone, for someone whose father had ruined my life decades ago.I lo

    Mia’s pov I was busy cleaning the counter when Lorenzo said most unexpected thing ever.“I love you.”It was just three words, but it made everything stumble to a stop in my mind as soon as it registered in my mind. I blinked once, shock resonating in my mind as I slowly glanced up from what I was doing to blink at Lorenzo. He was standing at the other side of the island, hand lastly wrapped around a glass of drink.His eyes was lazily trained on me and I blinked once while wondering if I had heard wrong. He hummed as he lazily walked around the island till he was standing in front of me. One of his fingers tipped my head backwards until I was staring into his eyes.“I love you.” He breathed out softly and I felt my lips tremble in shock.“I- I thought I heard wrong.” I whispered and he snorted, a small grin tugging at his lips.“You clearly didn’t.” He hummed, eyes glistening.The words swirled around my mind, right into the middle of my heart to settle there.I love you.

    Mia’s pov “I guess I understand where you’re coming from, I’d just be lying if I claim to not understand, seeing as I also grew up with so many dumb stereotypes.” I breathed out before pulling away from his grip, back facing him as I folded my arms around my middle.“But I still don’t like it though. Why do random women have to sit on you like that? That should always be me and no one else.” I breathed out. It took a few minutes for Lorenzo to be blanketing me with his large body from behind as he spoke.“You jealous, princess?”I scoffed and almost pulled away from his grip but his hold was unmoving.“Of course I am. Who wouldn’t be jealous? You tell me, wouldn’t you be jealous if you see me perched on a random man’s laps?” I asked and I felt his grip tightened around my waist almost immediately as he nosed at the side of my throat.“I wouldn’t be jealous.” He finally mumbled in response and I scoffed because I knew he was lying through his teeth. He hated the thought of othe

It was already early evening and I wasn’t really doing anything; so I decided to go get ready because I miss him and couldn’t wait to see him.I’d have put a call through to him first but I didn’t any to do that, I wanted to just arrive there like that, and that’s exactly what I had in mind as I got ready. It didn’t take long for me to settle on something to wear, and putting a light makeup on as well. Once I was done, I gave the address to one of my guards and we were driving over to the location almost immediately.The drive was a bit long but as soon as we pulled up at the location, I felt energized al

After he left, because I was bored. It didn’t take long for me to fall asleep. My initial plan was to ignore his words and walk into the meeting, but because he had sounded quite serious while asking me not to come in, I decided to obey his instructions like a good girl xxWhen I blinked my eyes open, Lorenzo was crouching in front of me, fingers moving through my hair strands and a soft look in his eyes as our eyes locked.“Why did I think you weren't gonna listen to me and was gonna come into that meeting?” He murmured softly as his hand brushed over my cheek to rest a thumb over my bottom lip.I couldn’t help the snort that escaped my lips. “You’d be surprised by how well i can listen to instructions.” I breathed out and he laughed softly. When I sat up moments later, I arched a brow at him.“Was th

I had been hyped as soon as he informed me that he I’ll be going with him, which is why I’m currently bursting with excitement. We’re currently in the car which and as usual, I fiddled with the radio while trying to settle on what to listen to.“Do you have anything in mind that you’d like to do today?” Lorenzo asked and I turned the question around in my head for a few minutes.“Something like what?” I asked and he shrugged one of his shoulders.“Anything, it doesn’t have to be something special or serious.” He suggested and I contemplated on what he said after a long while before responding.“We could go play a game.” I suggested and when he snorted, I glared at him.“You told me to pick anyt
