Lorenzo’s pov ‘Enraged’ was an understatement compared to how I’m currently feeling.I’ve never been that bothered about any of my enemies going to my house when I wasn’t around, and that was because I’ve never had anyone important waiting for me back at home before. I’ve never had anyone ever waiting for me back at home to begin with. Whenever I fuck some women, I either do it in one of my clubs or I take them to one of my other houses, but never the main one that I reside in.It made me extremely furious that a bunch of unfortunate people had killed my guards and broken into my house just to leave a clear warning. As I drove home, I kept imagining slaughtering those unfortunate people head one after the other, no matter how plentiful they were.As I drove, I kept thinking of how scared Mia would have definitely been when those bastards broke in. Perhaps that was the exact moment that she called me, and I had ignored it because I had been torturing that useless excuse of a
Mia’s pov Despite how much I tried to prevent it from happening, my anxiety still managed to bled through my mind, causing my hands to tremble every now and then. I let out a long breath and glanced through the window at the moving buildings.The car was silent, neither of us had said anything since we settled into the car. It’s been over thirty minutes but I’ve been yet to get over how scared I had felt when those people had busted into the house. The ringing sounds of those gunshot still rang through my head every now and then and I hated it.Now that I was with Lorenzo, that crippling fear had managed to subside drastically. As soon as he had showed up to my bedroom, that fright had instantly melted away, leaving me to sob in his arms for long minutes. Thinking about that right now made my cheeks pink up and I let out another sigh, I should’ve have behaved like that, sure, thingsss are not the way it once used to be between us, but that’s still not an excuse to act like we w
Mia’s pov “Confused in what sense? I think you need to elaborate further.” He responded and I let out a huff as I brushed my hair out of my face. I don’t need to stare into his eyes right now to know that his eyes are currently gleaming.“You know what I meant.” I pointed out, refusing to turn around and glance at him. A snicker rang through the sitting room and I felt my stomach flutter in response to that tiny sound.“I don’t think so, which was why I asked you to elaborate.” He explained, clearly lying through his teeth.A sigh eased out of my lungs as I glanced at the roof for a moment while my fingers massaged my forehead as I contemplated indulging him or not.“You can’t say things like that cause it affects me.” I finally spoke up after a long stretch of silence. I didn’t need to turn around to know that Lorenzo’s brows are currently arched.“It affects you?” He continued and I bit on my bottom lip and nodded my head. My back was still turned to him but I know that it do
Lorenzo’s pov When I finally kissed her that night, it felt like everything had finally fallen into place, like a puzzle finally falling into its tight places, like what I had longed for for a long while had finally happened.As she whimpered softly while her small hands moved up to grip my shirt, I realized once again that I couldn’t lose her. My grip moved from her chin to sink into her hair as I tilted her head sideways in order to deepen the kiss. She responded beautifully as usual, soft, sincere sounds spilling from her each time I broke the kiss.Whether I kissed her, I always made sure to break the kiss every now and then, because I was extremely obsessed with the sounds she usually made. It drove me crazy more than I’d like to admit. Mia is someone who had never experienced any of this with no one until my arrival, which proves that all of her reactions were always real and not feigned like some people’s, and that alone was enough to drive my crazy.She whined when I s
Mia’s pov As I showered, I couldn’t stop thinking about Lorenzo, not even for a fleeting second. My nipples remained hard throughout the shower and each time I remembered how he had licked my nipple through the top I had on, I was always back to feeling like my blood was on fire. He had an effect on me so intensely that it was almost maddening. As I lattared my body with soap, each glide of the soft sponge over my nipple kept sending shivers down my spine.This was something I never discovered was possible until Lorenzo. Sure, I had read about it a little but that was where it ended, because I had never imagined that something like that could ever happen.The cold water pattered down my body and I losed myself into the spray, and hoping that it would help to quench that heat right underneath my skin. After everything Lorenzo did to me minutes ago, it ended with him sending me to go take a shower, when I had been extremely worked up. That left a displeased feeling inside of me b
Mia’s pov “There’s no need to shop, we can just go back home and get things I need, instead of wasting money.” I said for the hundredth time but Lorenzo was clearly not listening to me.After he declared that I needed things I’d be wearing now that we’d be staying in this bigger duplex for now, he had suggested we go shop for things I’d need, and despite me trying to disagree, we’re currently headed for a mall to shop.“How many times do I have to remind you that it wouldn’t be a waste?” Lorenzo asked without sparing me a glance and i scoffed underneath my breath.“Spending money on you should never be considered as a waste.” He continued and of course, my heart fluttered but I ignored that and scoffed once again.“That’s just a waste of time and money. I’d rather be in the house now.” I pointed out and he let out a small laugh.“Oh yeah? Doing what?”“A lot of things!”“Like what?”“Like— like…”“Like making out with me?” He asked and color flooded my cheeks at once.“What? No
Lorenzo’s pov “Sit still.” I murmured but in the mirror, I could see her rolling her eyes. I ignored that and continued to run the brush through her hair.Should abyone had told me that I’d be this domestic with someone some months ago, I’d have shot them right in the chest for having the audacity to tell me something like that.“You’re really bad at this.” She mused as she took in the work I was doing on her hair, amusement dancing over her face as her fingers tentatively patted the side of her hair.I rolled my eyes and shoved her fingers off before tsking. “Where is your patience at?”“Sadly, it’s a virtue which I do not posess.” She mused through a small laugh and I hummed as I ran the brush over the side of her face.“I’d recommend you mastering that virtue.”“I’d pass, and besides, don’t you think that’s hypocritical coming from you?” She shot back and i snickered.“Just shut up and let me work without distractions.” I continued and her eyes twinkled in the mirror before s
Lorenzo’s pov A chuckle bubbled out my mouth as I gazed down at her, right as her cheeks began to darken. She avoided my gaze but it was pointless.“Is that so?” I asked and she bit on her bottom lip before slowly shaking her head.“Nope, don’t try to deflect right now. Is that what you want? For me to eat you up?” I asked and watched as she sucked in a deep breath before it eased out of her breathlessly. I reached out and inched her chin around with a light grip around her jaw until our taxes were locked once again.Her mouth opened and closed over and over again but nothing came forth, causing the small grin on my face to widened drastically. That prompted the color in her cheek to deepen even more.“I- I…”I nodded my head in encouragement. “Go on, let me hear you. What do you want?”She was clearly flustered, her eyes were blown wide, lips trembling and face flushed, and that made my blood zing from hunger. The urge to claim and maim her was back in the middle of my chest, tak
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
