CHAPTER 33 Lily’s POV
Okay okay. I can do this. I badly want to slam my head on the wall right now. Why am I on the verge of having an anxiety attack when I’m just ordering a lingerie online? Why is it so hard to do normal things? Wait? Is wearing lingerie even normal? My anxious thoughts were interrupted by someone pinching my waist, I immediately closed the laptop and kicked it off the bed.
“What was that for?” William asked and sat beside me. My heartbeat accelerated when I saw Andrea pick the laptop from the floor.
She opened it and they both checked the open browser, They stared at me and smiled mischievously. I started to sweat all over, I feel like I am melting from their nosy eyes.
“I-I am just l-looking for lingerie I ca-can wear for S-Salvy.” I stuttered and avoided their eyes.
“Lingerie? What?” William confusedly asked. They looked at my laptop again and started laughing.
CHAPTER 34 Lily’s POVI pinched my cheeks and slapped my forehead. I need to stay awake. It took me a few days to have the courage to wear the lingerie and I don’t think I can muster up enough confidence to wear this again in the future. It’s now or never. It’s already 11 PM, I should have asked first for Salvy’s schedule before planning all this. I stood up from the bed and checked myself in the mirror. I am wearing a matching red lace and covered myself with a red silk robe. I spent hours scrubbing and cleaning myself with the exfoliating cream Andrea gave me. I feel like my skin is as smooth as a baby’s buttcheeks. I lay down on the bed again and covered myself with the duvet, Where is Salvy? My courage is running out.I heard a rustling sound, someone leaving and closing the door. Was that Salvy? I sat up and checked the time, It’s already 3AM. I notice a note on the table and it says:“I don&r
CHAPTER 35 Salvy’s POVWarning: Horizontal Exercise, Poking the hive, Sexy Time“Thank God! We are home.” Enzo sighed and opened the door of the house for me.I nodded and went straight to the room, it’s been 3 days since the ambush and my body is still sore. The person I want to see the most is not in the room or garden. Where is she?I opened the door of the office. I saw my angioletto sitting in my chair, sleeping. Why is she sleeping in the office and not in the room?I caressed her cheeks and kissed the back of her ear. She shivered and woke up. “S-Salvy is that really you?” she groggily asked and reached for my face.I nod my head. “Why are you sleeping here vita mia?” I asked and put my face closer to her so she can easily touch me.“be-because ahmm the o-office still smells l-like you.” she stammered. I grinned. I lifted her up from t
CHAPTER 36 Lily’s POV“My angioletto wakeup. It’s dinner time.” Salvy whispered.I opened my eyes and saw something amazing, It’s Salvy looking like an Italian God. He is smiling at me with swollen lips and bruised shoulders. All the memories came back to me, on how he cleaned me up and how we cuddled after what we did. Oh God it was not a dream.He confusedly looked at me and then smiled. “Yup. It was not a dream. Let’s go. They’re waiting for us on the dinner table.” he winked and kissed the tip of my nose. I slapped my mouth. Why do I keep saying things out loud?I stood up and followed him to the dining area. He helped me sit down and the helper started serving the food. I’m still worried about why Salvy looked upset after we did it. I sighed and grabbed the edge of my sweater.My train of thoughts was interrupted by Enzo’s fake cough. I looked up and saw that ev
CHAPTER 37 Lily’s POVAndrea and I are on the bed, resting after our first training. William had been too jumpy since we got here.William sat on the edge of the bed. “I have something to tell you guys.” he whispered. We both sat up and he showed us the phone I found in the garden.“Why do you have this? I gave it to Salvy the day I found it.” I asked and quickly hid it under the blanket.“Fck William. What if it has a tracker on it?” Andrea scolded and pushed William.“That hurts. I heard Enzo and Salvy talking about this. The tech guy told them that it was not bugged. They used this last time to lure Matteo out. It was hidden in Enzo’s vault and I took it out before we left” He explained while rubbing his shoulder.“What are you planning to do with it?” I curiously asked and checked the phone.“I actually don’t know but maybe we can
CHAPTER 38 Lily’s POVI will be okay. I can do this, This is for Salvy and Enzo. Valerius and Mariella promised me that they will never let him hurt me. I sighed and dialed his number on the phone. After a few rings, he answered the phone.“You finally called.” He said on the line.“I miss y-you. Please p-pick me up.” I said on the phone.“What should you say Fiorellino?” he taunted.“I-Im s-sorry fo-”“Stop fcking stuttering b!tch. It ruins my mood” he interrupted.Tears started flowing from my eyes. I swallowed hard and looked at the view outside the coffee shop. Please Lily, don’t stutter. He is not yet here but he is already mad. “I’m sorry for defying you and running away from you last time.” I slowly said.“That’s it? That was not the magic words”He wants me to say that I love him, every tim
CHAPTER 39 Lily’s POVWarning: ViolenceIt’s the girl on the video, the one who kissed Salvy. I covered my mouth and swallowed hard. I don’t want to vomit. She looks so different. She is wearing a collar and the collar is chained on the desk. She has bruises all over her body and her hair was a mess, some of it was even shaved off. She is staring at the ceiling lifelessly. I look at her chest for any motion and thank God, she is breathing but she doesn’t even blink. Valerius mentioned to me that they lost contact with her before the attack happened. That’s one of the main reasons why they don’t know where the brothers were and what the brothers were planning.Matteo sat on the chair and pulled me on his lap, he forcefully moved my face to look at him.He sighed and hugged me. “She is still alive, I just drugged her. You see. I tried to replace you by using her but no one can give
CHAPTER 40 Lily’s POVI woke up on someone lightly slapping me. I opened my eyes and saw William and Andrea worriedly looking at me. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. Where am I? Oh God, I remembered all the events before falling asleep. I hurriedly stood up from the bed and I immediately fell down, I forgot I twisted my ankle.“Where are you going?” he asked while helping me back to the bed.“B-bathroom. I w-want to take a sh-shower.” I harshly rubbed my lips and skin.William grabbed my hands. “We already cleaned you up Lily. Calm down.” he softly said.I looked at my clothes, I’m already wearing a sweater and jogging pants. I sat back on the bed and hugged my knees. “Th-thank you.” I whispered.Andrea hugged me and I flinched. She released me from the hug but I held on to her hand, she understood what I wanted and hugged me tightly again. “The Old Don is asking
CHAPTER 41 Lily’s POV“What did you do Andrei Emilio?” Valerius cold voice echoed in the room.Andrea lowered her head while William instinctively pulled me closer to him. I hid my face on his chest, not wanting to see Valerius face.“I uh I th-think I’m the reason wh-why they were kidn-nap.” Andrea stuttered.“What?” William and I said at the same time.“You have 1 minute to explain before I personally kill you.” Valerius threatened.William tightened his hold on me. My heart started beating fast and I am worried that he will really kill Andrei.“I-I thought her mom is a good person and she w-wanted help on getting t-to know Lily’s life right now. I sw-swear I did not k-know. Fck sht, this i-is all my f-fault.” Andrei explained.My entire body is shaking now, That was a lie right? My mother never cared because if she did care, she wo
