I don't know how I was feeling, I'm I angry, sad, hurt or confused? How in the world things escalated like that I don't understand. I've never ever in my life reacted to a situation like I did today and I'm honestly embarrassed that they all had to see that.
"I'm fine," I muttered as I looked down at the cake that was in my lap, "You guys finished it!" I cried pointing to them with the fork, it's quite obvious I'm not crying for the cake but for something else, more like someone else. Why does it always hurt, it just becomes worse and worse the more he pushes me away.
"Lotus," Tiffany whispered pulling me in for a hug as I cried, why do I always cry when it comes to him?
"I hate him but at the sa

So it's Wednesday and I'm sitting on my bed contemplating on whether I should follow Woods orders or what? But today is my birthday, my twenty-second birthday and I'm feeling bolder and happier. Like I just turned twenty-two-years-fucking-old! I don't know why that's my favourite age but it is! I get off my bed and go take a shower, two days away from Antonio have been therapeutic. He hasn't called or texted me since that night and I've been internally and externally grateful! I've been smiling more and laughing more, of course with the help of Charlie and Tiffany. They are the most entertaining people I have in my life. Jake comes around to visit when he can, which was yesterday. He even bought me an early birthday gift which he instructed me to not open until my birthday...but we all know I'm not one for complying with queries or orders so I opened that box
The Retired Gang Leader. Fidati di me.
I had a pretty awesome afternoon with Charlie and Tiffany. Although they had their nauseating couple moments I enjoyed spending time with them. Right now I was in the backseat of Charlie's car as they drove to somewhere which isn't in the direction of home. "Uhm guys? Home is in the opposite direction," I said looking at the both of them as they smiled at each other. "No guys, where are you taking me?" I stressed out, I am not in the mood for going to another place, especially at this time. "Would you relax! We are going to a bar for a couple of drinks and we'll be back early," Charlie waved me off. I slumped back in my seat and folded my arms over my chest looking out into the city, it's beautiful. The way the lights are illuminating and the moon... oh God how much I love that star! It is a star, right? Well, I don't know. He finally pulled up into what seemed like an underground garage to what did not seem like a bar. "Charlie, where the hell are we?" I asked him after he ope
The Retired Gang Leader. Birthday Sex?
You would think after Antonio told me to trust him, after a beautiful emotional moment that we would jump right into it but we didn't. I'm currently sitting in his office as he works on something important, correct me if I'm wrong, but I am pretty fucking important aren't I? "Are you done?" I asked again, I've been asking since we got into his office. "Almost," And that has been his answer for three hours. "Can I go downstairs?" This time he looked up at me and I gave him a sweet smile. He looked like he was considering my query. "No," I'm bored here! "Enzo, it's boring watching you work and the DJ is playing some pretty awesome music right now!" I pointed to the glass window thingy that looked out into the club. I

"So where's Stacey?" I asked him as we entered his house, I was swinging my hands in front of me. "She went home," He shrugged and I frowned. "Why are you frowning, I thought you didn't like her?" "Oh I don't, it's just that she won't be here to hear me scream out your name," I grinned at him and he smiled, shaking his head. "I'm starting to think you're sick," He said and I shrugged, kicking off my shoes, probably not the best decision but I want some Antonio. I removed a strap of my dress and Antonio looked at me amused. "Lotus what are you doing?" "What do you mean what am I doing? I'm getting ready for the birthday sex you said we're going to have," I stood in front of him with my hands on my waist as my dress was stuck on my hips, this isn't th

I woke up to an empty spot beside me but a huge note facing me 'I went out to buy some breakfast for us', well okay. I get up and stretch my body looking down on the bed. A nasty smile creeps its way onto my face and I can't help but blush looking down on that bed. That bed that Antonio had me in different positions the whole night. Believe me when I say I did blush...but you can't see it. Brown-skinned slut right here! Just kidding, I'm a good girl, yes I am just with a dominant man who knows how to bring out the whore in me for him. I dance my way to his shower and clean up my body. I use his shower gel, the smell is heavenly...so Antonio. Once I'm done with my shower I wear one of his sweatshirts and my tights. I walk downstairs with my phone talking to Tiffany...I
The Retired Gang Leader. The Morning After, part two.
Lotus was asleep with her leg thrown over mine, her head on my chest and her hand holding onto me. I couldn't help but admire how much beauty she holds, and she is such a small person. A small person with a temper and a quick mouth which by the way has no filter. I don't think she knows how much of her 'thoughts' I've heard come out of her mouth. She's always thinking of murdering me...cute. I slowly untangle ourselves and walk over to my bathroom to take a shower. Maybe today we could just buy breakfast rather than cook...she must be exhausted. I mean I am exceptional when it comes to the bed. I get out of the shower and wear sweatpants and a shirt, I won't be out long. I write a quick note telling her that I'm goi
The Retired Gang Leader. Ares, Hades and Hermes.
I had just finished taking my shower and sat on the bed applying lotion all over my body. Antonio was still sleeping but he looked less pained than he did yesterday and the day before. I've tried to wake him up but he wouldn't budge and would say he just needed more time to rest. I was scared that he might be dead but all he would say was he just needed more time to sleep. I tried to get him to eat, and believe me when I said I tried but the man wouldn't budge, I threatened to punch his wound last night and he finally got up and ate, after that he went right back to sleep. "Why are you naked?" His accent was thicker and he still looked tired, but his eyes were on my chest...of course, they would. Why was I with this pervert? "I just finished taking a shower, how are you feeling?" I asked him as I wore my tank top and lace panties walking over to his side of the bed. "I just need to rest more." "No, you need to get up and shower so I can change your dressing, you've been in this b
The Retired Gang Leader. The Date Again.
"Lotus," I looked at him over my shoulder as I was sitting down on the floor playing with the puppies. Hermes had finally woken up and decided to play as well. I had already fed them and now we were playing with the small ball in my hand, Ares ran up to Ant's lap and laid her small head there, it was such an adorable scene to look at. "Yes, Enzo?" I smiled when he blushed at the name I called him with. I think I like calling him by both names. "I want to take you out on a date," This again? I thought we were done with putting on a show for Wood. "For Wood?" I asked him looking down at Hades who was trying to get the ball from my hand. "No, for us. I want to start all over again...If that's what you want too?" He said and I grinned watching that pink tint on his cheek

So I lost the bet, Johnny the big guy didn't win against the small guy and I was hurt, to say the least. "So are you ready?" Antonio whispered cockily in my ear and I frowned, following Johnny with my eyes, I will get him later. Where in the world has the big guy ever lost against the smaller one! Where!? Nodding my head trying to seem confident yet I was crapping myself, I wasn't ready for anything but a bet is a bet and I will keep my end of the bargain and carry out with the bet, I'm no wimp. "You know, it's okay if you don't want to," he said as we walked together hand in hand. "No!" I shouted and cleared my throat, "I mean I want to," I nodded my head trying to convince him but all I was doing was convincing myself even more. "Okay then, you will love it!" He exclaimed and I pressed my lips together and slowly followed him to our room, "Wait we have to eat." "Yes! Totally agree, I'm starving, I'll go make us food," I rushed to turn around but he caught me by my waist. “Tha

"Good morning Mrs Rossi," a voice whispered in my ear and I pushed his face away from me, mumbling a pained no. "Come on, it's time to wake up." "But I don't want to, leave me alone please," I turned my body away from him and the idiot seemed to follow me. Sticking his wet finger into my ear I jumped out of the bed and looked at him horrified. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I shouted at him and he laughed looking at me. "Come on, you promised to watch them today," he said walking over to me with his arms open for me, walking right into the hug I wrapped my arms around his waist and his hands touched the edge of his shirt before grabbing my ass. "They're not kids Ant, they will be just fine," I mumbled sleepily against his chest and he moved my hands from his waist wrapping them around his neck, picking me up as he walked us into the bathroom. "A promise is a promise Fiore," he said, sitting me down on the countertop as he opened the shower for me. "But there's always next ti

Antonio stood at the altar waiting for his bride to be, officially and right this time to come out. He too couldn't believe that the day had finally arrived and they were both ready to settle down so quickly together and yet surprisingly they were both more than ready for this change. It wasn't really a change considering that they had been living together for a long time and they had already been technically married just without Lotus knowing but now they had to do it in front of everyone this time and with her clear knowledge that it was happening. Antonio stood staring ahead at the door Lotus was supposed to come out of, which she hadn't yet and it made him feel nervous and panicky, that's why he had sent Charlie to go get her and Tiffany. They weren't late per se, but he just wanted to see her and hold her. He heard a noise that sounded like cheering on and he wondered what it was all about, the doors bursting open and causing everyone to look at them, out came Charlie and Tiff

The Retired Gang Leader. Officially.
The preparations for this day were stressful and fun at the same time, having my best friend or should I say my sister here to help me was a huge relief! Sitting on the bed together I watched her as she tried to fit her gown but it wouldn't get past her hips. "You have been gaining a lot of weight these days Tiff," I commented paging through the book she brought for me to get back in the mode of reading hardcover books, and so far? Still not interested, which is crazy cause I remember how much I used to love them when I was a kid. Oh well, I guess growing up changes a lot of things. "Yeah, I think I've been eating quite a lot." "Out with it Tiff, you pregnant?" I asked her closing the book and looking at her, her head dropped and she slowly nodded. "Why were you quiet about it?" "I didn't want to seem careless when I told you the news after you had just...you know," she said in a small voice and I frowned. "I'm sorry Lotus, it wasn't even my intention to get-" stopping her with a
The Retired Gang Leader. Happy.
After months of having to attend therapy sessions, eleven torturous months of sitting in front of Dr Meyer and telling her all about my problems and how I feel, it has been absolute hell and I am very happy that this is my last session with her. At first, I never opened up about anything and would always fire back her questions to her, for example, she would ask me 'how do you feel about that?' and I would answer her with a 'how do you think I feel about that?' I know she is here to help me get over my guilt and try to understand my emotions a bit better but come on, even you have to admit that some of the questions are a bit retarded. "So Lotus, how do you feel about this being our last session together?" "Uh, am I supposed to feel some type of way?" I asked her, does she want me to be sad and weeping that I won't be seeing her anymore and I won't have to answer questions and have her prove a point to me that would bug me out for a whole week until I see her. "It's all up to you
The Retired Gang Leader. Almost.
I had just taken a shower that Tiffany forced me into taking because for the past three days I had been sitting next to her, watching her curly hair become flatter. Grabbing my shirt I walked to the room Lotus was resting in, buttoning my shirt up I opened the door and I heard her melodic laugh. "There you are!" She chirped and I stood by the door fazed, I wasn't here when she woke up. "You're up," I whispered, not believing my eyes, she gestured to her body and giggled. "I'm wide awake, are you just going to stand there and watch me or are you going to come hug me?" She said in a suggestive tone and still, I stood there just watching her. "You would think he was the one that got shot," she mumbled, Charlie and Tiffany laughed and she laughed too but ended up coughing. Rushing over to her side I helped her sit up straighter and gave her some water to drink. "Are you okay?" I asked her and she waved me off. "I'm fine, I missed you," she said and I smiled, looking up I saw we were

I was sitting on the chair next to Lotus's bed as she lay there sleeping off the heavy doses of medication that they had pumped into her body after surgery. I had never felt so useless and terrified in my life. The thoughts that kept running in my head were horrifying, only if I had moved quicker then maybe she would be awake right now annoying the crap out of me, but instead, she was here on this bed bandaged and being helped by a ventilator in order to breathe and it's all my fault. Holding onto her hand I looked at her and brought my hand to touch her curls, the curls I love twirling my finger around when we lay in bed talking about anything and everything. It's really easy to talk to her, but with her sleeping it's difficult and I just want to hear her voice, even if it's just to curse me out. I tried squeezing her hand thinking she will respond and squeeze mine back but she doesn't, her cold fingers touch mine in an embrace I'm forcing, trying to warm them up I rub our hands t
The Retired Gang Leader. Over A Crest?
I had just come back from the bathroom and on our way back I might have sneakily grabbed Big Joe's gun and hit him on the head. I couldn't really pull him anywhere because he was big and compared to him, I was extremely small. Taking his pocket knife I walked back into the room and found Wood beating my Antonio who held a satisfied smirk at what was happening and Stacey standing there watching them as if it was a show. "What in the world is going on here!?" My voice echoed in the room and I ran over to Antonio pulling him away from Wood, here I am acting as if this is my house but I hadn't been gone for more than five minutes and here they were fighting already, slipping the pocket knife into his pocket I helped him stand straighter. "This is an ivory-white jacket, do you know how much work I will have to do because there's blood all over it?" It wasn't really about the jacket, but it wouldn't hurt to get them thinking it was about it. Walking back to my seat but pushing it next to
