Mia’s pov “We’re going to watch a car race today.” Lorenzo said after pushing my door without knocking, as expected. I had been sitting in bed when he appeared at the doorway and delivered that news.“What’s that?” I mumbled in response after a few seconds of me digesting what he had just said.“It’s some sort of sport. So get dressed.”I sat up straighter. “Wait, right now?”Lorenzo let out an exasperated sigh. “Isn’t that obvious?”“But… the time –”“The time has nothing to do with it, so go ahead and get dressed already.” He continued and I pursed my lips and nodded my head before dragging myself out of the bed. I had been in bed almost throughout the entire day because I didn’t have anything important to do. I hadn’t seen Lorenzo throughout today, but I had a feeling he had been locked in his office until minutes ago when he made his way to my bedroom.“What do I dress up in?” I asked as I threw my closet door open. As I looked through the clothes in there, a few seconds passed
Mia’s pov As soon as the car pulled up at the house, I hastily alighted it with all my intent being fleeing away and hiding in my room till I recovered from what had been the best three seconds of my life. I was about to take the first stair leading upstairs when a hold settled on my wrist, causing me to freeze up because I knew even without having to turn around, that it was Lorenzo. The sound of me gulping could definitely be heard outside from how loud it sounded as I slowly turned around till I was staring up at Lorenzo. I was in a pair of sneakers this time which left a lot of height difference between us this way. Right now, he towered over me even more, and whereas I was supposed to be scared shitless right now, all that was going through my mind right now was that three seconds kiss which took place about thirty minutes ago in his car.I gulped once again and forced my mouth to move.“Uh… hi.” I whispered.If Lorenzo found me funny right now, it wasn’t all that obvious, exc
Lorenzo’s pov I had finally done it.This one thing which I’ve been fighting against since I could remember, I have finally done it.Since the first moment I laid an eye on Mia, I had known that she was gonna be trouble, but I never counted on it ever being to this extent. I had been attracted to her since I could remember and I had fought that attraction from the onset, refusing to acknowledge it until till i couldn’t pretend any longer.As I watched her run up the stairs, I wanted to do nothing more than to go after her and thoroughly ravage her. There was nothing I’d want more than to kiss her more and more until I had embedded her taste in my brains. She had tasted way nicer than I expected and I had been drunk on her taste almost immediately. I’ve kissed her twice in the past, but those moments certainly do not count because the kisses had merely been light lips grazing.She had tasted so fucking exquisite that I hadn’t want to stop kissing her. The kiss was supposed to
Mia’s pov It was obvious that Lorenzo was in a good mood tonight. Perhaps it was the alcohol he had before we exited the house for the wedding, because I know damn well that it wasn’t because of anything he was served at the wedding because I know he’d never est or drink anything served to him in public. As we danced, I felt like I was trapped in a completely different world with Lorenzo whereby we were completely alone there. It was easy to lose one’s self to Lorenzo’s eyes because they were so beautiful yet so intense.When I had spotted a few of my father’s men, I had instantly felt nervous to my bones. I had thought my father was also around somewhere, but it turned out to be that I had been paranoid for nothing. At first I had thought my father finslly wanted to fight back against Lorenzo in order to rescue me, and my stomach had tightened with nervousness so fast that I grew dizzy.To me, that wasn’t gonna seem like I was being rescued. It was gonna seem like I was being t
Mia’s pov As I stepped into the room, my heart was fully lodged in my throat, but this time, it wasn’t solely because of fear. It wasn’t because of fear in the way it was the last time I was here after I had angered him and had been scared of my life. Tonight was completely different.The feeling that was currently coursing through my veins was nervousness and excitement blended together to create an emotion that was causing my heart to race super fast.Excitement in the sense that I had been thinking about him kissing me again for over a week, and now that it was about to happen again, I was excited to experience that once again. The kiss felt way better than I expected it to be and I couldn’t wait to feel that feeling of hotness licking at the inside of my lower stomach when he kissed me again.And nervousness because… well, because we were back in this room, coupled with the fact that the emotions burning in his eyes were outrightly filthy and starved.The sound of the door
Mia’s pov “You gonna be good for me tonight?” He asked and I hastily nodded my head while panting hard as I blinked up at him. It was hard to think of anything else except him and only him right now. He looked insanely hot right now, and the way he took charge at every turn was just so hot that it kept altering my brain each time. I let out a small whine when his thumb grazed my nipple once again. He had been doing this for a while now and I wanted to scream from frustration. Something was building inside of me, something foreign that was white hot and searingly intense, wanting to be let out at all cost, but I didn’t even know what it was, much less how to let it out.“That’s a good girl.” He murmured, voice husky and I felt my inside clench up once again. His hand coupled my ass and kneaded it and another stuttered breath got punched out of my inside.After Lorenzo had settled on this couch with me atop him, he had asked me to sit still and each time he did something that made
Mia’s pov I tried to control how hard my heart was racing but I couldn’t help it, the smile on my face was almost making my cheeks hurt as well.This is the third time in a row that a gift was arriving for me this week, and all were from Lorenzo as well.When I had asked him why he kept sending me gifts the second time, he had told me it was just because he felt like it.Somehow, it felt like that wedding which we both attended a week ago had some kind of magic in the air that day, because of that extremely perfect night spent with him whereby he had completely ravaged my entire body, the feud that followed that night had soo been so perfect that I sometimes stop to ask myself if all of these were real or not.Lorenzo had made it a habit to kiss me randomly these days. I had been scared the morning after that wedding and that night in his bedroom, because I assumed he was gonna pull away and go back to avoiding me at all cost like he did after that first time we kissed but this
Mia’s pov A smile was on my face as soon as I opened my eyes, and I tightened my hold around Lorenzo’s warm form. I had expected him to have pulled away before I woke up, and got a pleasant surprise to realize that he was still here, fast asleep. His face was still buried in my chest and I felt my heart flutter a little as I took in how relaxed his face looked.I began to wonder about what his nightmare could have been about and if this was a regular thing for him. It made my heart ache because no one deserves to leave with scents horrifying enough to trigger nightmares.The sun was already shining through the tiny cracks in the curtains which indicated that the day had already broken. I knew the best thing to do is to shake him awake, since I’ve known him, he was always awake early, and if I leave him to sleep in, he might wake up pissed.But he had a nightmare and deserved to sleep in this morning. Who knows? The reason why it seems like he barely gets enough sleep might be be
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
Mia’s pov I had just returned from the mall where I had gone to shop for knitting supplies when the text had arrived in my phone.‘Come over to my working spot, miss you’Along with an address attached.The text had arrived from an unsaved number but I could tell Lorenzo had been the one who sent the mail because the address was one of his clubs which I haven’t been to yet. 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
Mia’s pov After Lorenzo went to his meeting, and that was had to convince me to stay in the office and not come into the neighboring room where the meeting was taking place in. 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
Mia’s pov I was accompanying Lorenzo to the office today and I was very excited about that. This decision came up after I complained about being bored to Lorenzo. He decided that the change of scenery would do me good, and that he’d also like me to be to his office got the first time. 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
