Chapter No.1

Sabrina Costa:-

"Hello, lady. Please let me know whether you've already arrived in Milan because I can't wait to show you the new gowns I've made for you. I am confident you will enjoy them." Javier, my closest buddy and fashion designer, called as I checked into the presidential suite at one of my hotel chain's branches.

"Hello to you too, Javi. To answer your question, I have already arrived in Milan and checked into my hotel, and I can't wait to try the gowns on. I can already tell they're going to be spectacular." With a smile on my face, I responded. Javi is my best friend, who happens to be gay with an enormous and kind heart. "How is your husband? Is he still on his business trip?"

"Josh? He is doing quite well. He's on a business trip because we've been awarded a massive project, and if we do it on time, we'll be famous." He responds cheerfully, which makes me chuckle and roll my eyes. The man is already on the list of the finest fashion designers, but he continuously claims that he will become famous.

"You're already well-known, Javi. Stop acting as though you're still trying to get famous." I was speaking while looking for professional apparel to go to my appointment with the owner of a boating company in Milan. This boating company is capable of supporting the ferry tour site for my hotel over here, which is why I need to conclude this agreement with them as soon as possible before the busy tour season begins.

"Perhaps I keep saying it like this because I aspire to be as famous as you, honeybee." He declared "You own the world's largest hotel chain and are a well-known self-made billionairess. Other hotel owners are already frightened just by the mention of your name since you not only run the world's largest hotel chain but are also as vicious and merciless as the devil."

"Now I'm not sure if I should take that as a compliment or as an insult," I mumbled, which made him chuckle.

"Baby, take that as a compliment. Consider that a compliment."All right, have a good meeting today and rock like always," he responds. "I'll see you in a few hours." He finished the call with that. I smiled as I rested my phone on the nightstand and gazed out the window of my hotel suite, which was nothing short of delightful and calm. From above, you can see the ocean and a clear sky.

"Miss Costa, I have prepared the bath exactly to your liking. I'm sure you'd like to relax after your long flight." One of my hotel's female employees announced.

"Thank you, Jenna." I thanked her and placed $100 cash in her hand. "Here's a small tip for you. Give it to your daughter."

"Yo... you know I have a daughter? But how?" she was perplexed.

"Let's just say I like to know what's going on in the lives of my employees and do a background check on them," I replied with a wink. Jenna smiled, thanked me, and exited the room as I went to the bathroom, undressed, and immersed in a lukewarm bath with a rose aroma.

After taking a long relaxing bath and getting ready I headed to Milan's number one boating company where my assistant has booked the meeting with the owner. I was so lost in making the notes in my mind when I ran into a man who came running out of nowhere in a hurry as I was making my way inside the building. I was just ready to fall on my face, but two muscular arms stopped that from occurring and held me back.

"I am Sor..." The man came to a halt before he could continue his statement as he stared at me.

"Thank you very much." As my eyes rested on the man who has never left my mind for a single minute in the last five years, I halted in my tracks to thank him. The man I fell in love with at first sight, the man I lost my virginity to, the one for whom I was ready to do everything only to get my heart torn in the most painful way conceivable.

"Carlos?!" I asked surprised.

"Sabrina?!" When he gazed at me with his beautiful brown eyes, the same eyes that grabbed me five years ago, his reaction was the same as mine. The night that resulted in my pregnancy with his child. When I stare into those same eyes after five years, I can't help but feel myself submerge in them and travel down memory lane. The first time we met.

Flashback:-

Five years ago:-

"Stop drinking like there is no tomorrow, woman. Your father is going to kill me when he finds out that his daughter is drunk and wasted." my best friend Elena ordered as she takes the glass of alcohol from my hands at the bar of the club owned by the Morettis. The richest family alive in the town.

"Maybe, I want to get drunk and wasted because no one is ready to give me a promotion and appreciate my hard work as the men only think that women are useless. I will show the bastards how wrong they are one day." I announced in my drunken state and wobbly legs. I could barely stand after consuming a lot of amount of alcohol "That bastard stole my project file and presented it under his name at the conference meeting today and when I tried to tell the truth to the boss all I got in return were three words "You. are.fired"

"Look, Rina. My best friend. I know you had a bad day today but alcohol is not going to help in any way. It is just going to give you the worst headache in the morning." Elena advised me but I was too far gone to listen to her when the DJ played my favorite song all of a sudden and I can't help but find myself dancing to the beat.

"Ooh! That's my favorite song, Lena. Come and let's dance with me." I announced dragging her on the dance floor with me. She refused and tried to top me but failed and ended up dancing with me on the dance floor. As we both ladies were dancing to the beat I felt two strong arms wrap around my waist from behind and dance with me.

"And, who would you might be to touch me without permission because I don't remember giving you one?" I asked with a raised brow as I turned around only to get frozen in my place and lost in the hazel eyes of the tall man standing in front of me. He was 6'1 in height with a muscular body, dark curly hair, suntanned skin with a lithe physique and I can't help but gulp and feel turned on with only a single glance from this Adonis-looking man.

"What's your name, beautiful?" the tall, hot, and handsome man asked in a seductively low voice.

"Why do you want to know, handsome?" I asked matching his tone.

"So, I can fuck you in more than seven different ways and scream your name out." he replied, " And, besides in order to ask for permission it is necessary to know the name of the person first."

"Well, in that case, you should tell me your name too so I know whose name I have to scream while I come." I played along with him while pulling him closer to me by his collar and grind my front of him like a dance step " And, how sure are you that I am going to tell me your name, handsome?"

"Due to the fact that your panties are damp wet for me right now and only want me." he whispers in my ear as he ran his hands slowly and smoothly on my bare thigh since I was wearing a mini dress " Tell me your name, beautiful and grant me the permission so I can fuck you really hard, fast and rough."

"Sabrina....my name is Sabrina." I replied in uneven breathing " And, yes. I give you permission to touch me and do more than that. Now tell me your name."

"Are you sure?" the man asked, " And, the name is Carlos by the way."

"Yes, I have never been so sure in my life than today," I replied.

"Again, I am asking if you are sure, or is this alcohol talking?" Carlos whispered in my ears "Tell me now, beautiful, because once I get a yes from you I don't think I can stop."

"Yes, and does it matter if it is the alcohol talking or not because we both are drunk right now? Aren't we?" I asked with a grin and grind my breasts to his chest " I want you."

"Let's go!" Carlos replied as he dragged me out of the club in a hurry and drove me to his place where he fulfilled the words he promised me by giving me the best night of my life. The night that left me pregnant with his child, his son Pierre Moretti.

End of Flashback.

"Sabrina...Sabrina? Are you there? Are you okay?" I was brought back from my thought by Carlos's voice who was looking at me with worry in his eyes.

"I....I need to go." I spoke before running away from him. I went into the elevator and headed to the floor where the meeting was held. Thankfully, no one was in the elevator because I was an emotional mess from inside and breathing heavily to calm my nerves. As I was trying to get back to myself, the elevator reached the desired floor I chose to go to and opened. I walked towards the assistant to the CEO and owner of this boating company and asked.

"Hello, I am Sabrina Costa. My assistant booked an appointment for today with the CEO of the company." I informed the assistant. The lady gave me a polite smile and checked into her database for the scheduled appointment.

"Yes, your name is present over here in the database, Miss. Costa. Mr. Carlos Moretti will be seeing you now." the assistant announced making my eyes go wide.

"M...Mr. Carlos Moretti?" I asked shocked.

"Yes, he is the owner of the CEO of C&S boating company." the assistant announced.

"Hello, Sab. Did you miss me?" the door to the CEO's office opened and revealed none other than Carlos standing by the doorway with a sexy grin on his face.
