"Mmmm," a pain-filled moan left from Olivia's mouth. She blinked repeatedly to clear her gaze. But something wet is dripping from her head, and it is obstructing her view. From the metallic smell in the air, she understood that she was bleeding. She tried to move her limbs, but she was stuck. The place from where she fell looks far from where she is stuck. She is not exactly on the ground but hanging somewhere in the middle. 'My cousin will come for her. You are inviting your death ' She vaguely heard Carlos's speaking. Tears welled in her eyes. She remembered the conversation she had with Alessandro that morning. 'I am bored, Alesso ' she complained.He caressed her cheek fondly and fed her a piece of toast.'I will take you out tomorrow ' he promised.If only she would have disagreed with Carlos, this wouldn't have happened now. She is sure Alesso would come for her. But she is not sure if she will be alive by the time he finds her. She is bleeding from different places and feel
"Livi" Alessandro is searching for Olivia. The strong scent of blood caught his attention. He reached the spit where Livi was stuck a few minutes ago. When he saw so much blood, his eyes began to burn and became moist with unshed tears. He found her scarf nearby. "Livi" he screamed at the top of his lungs. He fell to his knees in pain by holding the scarf as if it is Olivia herself. But she didn't reply. He is not ready to believe that she is no more. "No, Livi, you cannot leave me like this. You are my ray of sunshine in the darkness that my life has become. I wake up with a smile every morning because of you. I cannot live without ever seeing your smile. You just cannot leave me, baby. I will never allow that" he cried out loud with pain and fear for her life.That's when he saw the trail of blood leading down. He ran down the trail ignoring the thorns and the sharp rocks that kept piercing his skin. After about a minute or two, he heard the unmistakable sound of people speaking
Ten hours later, In the Volcov family mansion, Alessandro is looking at Livi who is sleeping in his bed under the effects of the sedatives. The injury to her head needed three stitches. It would leave a mark, but it is not visible to anyone as her hair would cover it. But he would never be able to forget this day. It is marked as the worst day of his life, and he had seen bad days before. He fired his security staff who failed to notice that Carlos and Livi slipped out of the mansion undetected. They failed in their duties. But all of this is on one side and there is something which is bothering him more. The fact that Livi decided to ignore his words and agreed to go out with Carlos is making him want to kill Carlos. The fact that he is Jelous of Carlos is shocking. He never thought that he would see a day like this some day.'Does Livi have feelings for Carlos? Is that why she went out with him? I don't understand what she saw in him. He is useless and cannot do a single thing prop
He stilled and finally met her gaze. "I am not mad, Livi, I am upset and most importantly, I am worried about you and your choices. You shouldn't have gone out with Carlos in the first place. I specifically told you not to. But still, you disregarded my words and went out with that good-for-nothing idiot anyway. You showed me that he is more important to you than me. You should have gone in search of him and ignored me altogether" he muttered with jealousy. His emotions are all over the place. He is worried about her and let's not forget the Jealousy. He never acknowledged it in front of Czar, but he is burning with Jealousy. She showed Carlos is more important to her than him. He is being himself in front of her, and he is being a boss in front of, Czar Livi is stunned by his words. She can see that he is upset and rightfully so. She made a mistake by not following his words. She knows he has enemies and Carlos is not enough to protect them both. But still, she decided to go anywa
"If you are this Jealous because of my imaginary relationships, then what will you do if I really start dating someone? It is bound to happen someday" she pointed out.Alessandro did not like that thought one bit. He can never imagine her with anyone else. He already tasted the pill of Jealousy, and he is not ready to taste it again. If he could stop her from going out with men other than him, he would definitely do that. But he knows that it's impossible. She has a mind of her own and he cannot control her."Why do you need other men? You already have me" he muttered, still frowning at the thought of her dating. Livi raised her eyebrows with amusement. "Is it? But I want to do certain things with the men I date. Can I do all that with you? I mean, I kiss you and do stuff like that. But when I really start dating, I want my date to touch my naked body......" he covered her mouth before she could go any further. The image she planted in his head is enough to give him a hard-on for da
The next morning, Livi found herself waking up to an empty room once again. Slowly she sat up, mindful of her sore body. She rubbed her eyes to wipe the sleep off them. Slowly everything that happened last night came flooding back into her mind. Her cheeks flushed pink and her core clenched with need. She touched her lips, which still felt tender to touch. He kissed her until her lips became numb. She fell asleep after he gave her an Orgasm. She remembers falling asleep while still sitting in his lap. She is embarrassed to face him again.Just then, a couple of maids walked inside her room meekly. "Miss Rae, Mr. Volcov wanted us to help you to pack your bags and get ready," they said politely.She frowned."Pack my bags? Where am I going?" she asked dumbfounded.Both the maids looked at each other with hesitation before replying."I think you are going back to Chicago" one of them shared helpfully.When she registered those words, her embarrassment evaporated, and anger took over. A
In the Volcov family mansion, after Livi stormed out of Alessandro's office, she quickly finished her morning routine and took the quickest shower of her life, despite the protesting from her sore body. She got dressed in the first thing she found. And that happened to be a cut-off denim shorts and a sleeveless top with spaghetti straps. The neck is a little deep, showing a little cleavage whenever she bends. Her shorts are showing off he toned legs. This is not something new. She usually wears dresses like this and Alessandro is used to it. Angrily she started stuffing her suitcase with her clothes, not exactly caring about the wrinkles that would leave on the clothes later on if she just dumped them like this. That's when Alessandro walked in angrily. His long purposeful strides came to a stop when he took in the mess she made on the bed and on the floor. Her clothes are every where and the two maids whom he sent to help her pack her stuff are standing by one side, looking scared a
He leaned closer and touched his forehead with hers."Livi, I don't want you to get hurt or worse. Give me one month. I will try to make this place much safer for you. After that, I will bring you back here" he bargained.But she doesn't want to go, period. She is ready to stay in the mansion for as long as it takes for him to do his stuff, but leaving is not something she wants to do. She is ready to play dirty."Oh? Then you are allowing me to mingle and talk with other men in school? I can go out with them and all, right?" she asked, intentionally goading him. She saw how angry he got when those men looked at her bare legs. She bet on everything she holds dear that he would never let her other men touch her either. She understood he was that crazy."Livi" he warned. His voice is a deep rumble from his throat. The seemingly innocent questions she asked have planted an unwanted image of Livi surrounded by men when he is not around to protect her. He saw how his three guests who were
Happily ever after....Two years later..."Aaron, where are your sister and mother?" Alesso asked his one-and-a-half-year-old son. Livi gave birth to twins. She went into labor in her eighth month, and she gave birth to twins. The newborns were kept in the incubator because of their low birth weight for a week before they were allowed to take home. "Bla blah blah..." Aaron tried to tell where his sister was in his cute baby language. Alesso laughed at his cuteness. He carried the little bundle in the direction where he pointed out. Just like Livi, Serra, his daughter loves flowers and gardens. Mostly she likes to play in the mud. Livi allows it too. He found his beautiful wife and daughter in the garden."Hello beautiful ladies" he cooed. Immediately his daughter ran towards him with her muddy hands and all. Alesso leaned down to lift her as well. She smeared dirt all over his neck and shirt. But he didn't mind it one bit.Livi walked up to them and pecked his lips with love."Where
"Livi, you look beautiful. I am sure Alesso will be unable to keep his off of you" Mia complemented Livi."It will be a miracle if he doesn't demand all the men to get out because they all are watching his Wife" Chloe teased.Everyone laughed with mirth. Mia, Chloe, Hera, Rose, and Livi were all present in the room where Livi got ready for her wedding. The bride and the bridesmaids are chatting and laughing. Czar, Carlos, and his parents are all involved with the wedding preparations, making sure that the wedding will go on smoothly without a glitch. The entire Mansion is filled with laughter and cheer. Everyone has a smile on their faces. Mouth-watering food, and beautiful decor, and the mansion looks like a palace from a fairy tale. The wedding is going to take place in the backyard of the Volcov mansion. The entire backyard is decorated. On the far end of the backyard is the makeshift aisle. The aisle looks beautiful with two pillars on either side with a huge chandelier hanging
"Rose, you look good in that dress. My brother is going to fall head over heels in love with you" Livi complemented Rose.The sun has gone down, setting the surroundings with dim light. As Livi's wedding was the next morning, everyone decided to retire for the day early, so that the bride could get enough sleep. But Livi was feeling too nervous for her big day. So she couldn't fall asleep. She decides to sneak into Alesso's room but notices that Rose is awake and Alesso is forced to share a room with Kairo because of something that Russel said. So she decided to pester Rose instead. As Rose is one of her bridesmaids, she is trying her dress upon Livi's insistence. Rose gave Livi a forced smile. 'No, your brother is already in love with someone else. He will never fall for me ' she thought sadly, but kept that to herself. She doesn't want to upset Livi who looks so happy. "You are right, it looks good now that it is altered to my size" Rose agreed, ignoring Livi's comment about Kairo
"They crashed our party!" Mia exclaimed with excitement.The drunk woman hugged their men with drunk excitement."Looks like someone is happy to see us" Reed commented when he saw how happy Mia looked when she saw him."Very happy" she declared. They all started to chat and laugh with happiness. They all are relaxed. Matteo is pressing Hera's swollen feet, Reed is hugging Mia, when she complains of a cold wind. Chloe is sitting on Nero's lap. Alesso is rubbing Livi's back while she is sipping water. Only Rose and Kairo are sitting side by side. Kairo's arm is spread behind her on the couch. Absently he is playing with her hair."How did you guys even imagine that you would party and we wouldn't know about it?" Alesso asked with mirth.All the ladies pouted. "We just wanted to have fun" Livi mumbled defensively, and everyone bobbed their heads comically. The men chuckled. "Did you guys enjoy your party without us?" Reed asked.The woman slumped and felt dejected."We thought we wo
Livi, Alesso, Kairo, Rose, Russell, and the others traveled back to Russia, where the wedding would be going to happen in a week. The Volcov Mansion in Russia is decorated for the wedding, with drapes, hanging lights, and tents erected in the backyard where the marriage will commence. Fresh flowers will be replaced every day until the day of marriage. Rose, Chloe, Mia, and Hera are the bride's maids. While Nero, Reed, Kairo, and Matteo are the groomsmen.The entire group landed in Russia to participate in the festivities five days earlier. Women planned to celebrate the bachelorette party in a yacht, and they all planned to keep the location a secret so that their husbands couldn't crash their party like every other time. "Cheers to our Olivia" all the ladies cheered to the bride-to-be. Only Hera is not drinking alcohol, but the others are. They all drank shots, followed by dancing. Loud music and lots of fun. As they were the only people partying, they were having a lot of fun. "
In the warehouse, John was tortured within an inch of his life. Alessandro and Kairo took turns in torturing him. And they enjoyed it thoroughly. They made him a crying and begging mess. By the time they were done, he was lying in his shit and pee. "This should teach everyone not to ever cross us. You mess with what's ours, we will mess with you" Alessandro said with a sneer.Kairo threw the bloody knife away. Just like he once told Rose that he is very good at carving. When he was carving John's face, he only remembered her. As sick and twisted as it might look, he is missing her badly."K...ka.Kairo" John whispered with a sinister smile before he took his last breath. Those words made Kairo feel uneasy. Even Alessandro is frowning. Something in the dead man's eyes made Kairo feel unsettled."What does he mean by that?" Naim asked with confusion.But both Kairo and Alessandro were quiet, lost in their thoughts."Dispose of his body. I am going home. You coming?" Kairo asked Alessan
When John entered the warehouse where Kairo was keeping Alessandro captive, he laughed out loud when he saw Alessandro tied to a chair and leaning forward with his head down. The area is dimly lit and he couldn't see Alessandro's face. But the thick smell of blood wafting from inside the warehouse is making him feel excited."Well, well, well, it looks like Kairo did a number on the great Alessandro Volcov," he said loudly and clapped his hands while laughing. Naim appeared then along with a few of Kairo's men. John looked around, searching for Kairo."Where is your boss, Naim? Did he become tired after torturing this Russian?" John asked with a wide grin.A chuckle rang loudly around the warehouse then. John looked around to find the source of the chuckle, only to find Alessandro walking in from behind him. John is shocked to see Alessandro there. He was thinking that the man tied to the chair was Alessandro. "You? If you are here, then where is Kairo?" John asked with panic.Aless
'Kairo will not be pleased to hear that you cornered his wife 'When Sylvia hears those words, her heart is filled with hatred for Rose. She wanted to kill Rose then and there. But that would push Kairo away from her. So she had her emotions and acted pitifully."I know Rose. I know you are his wife now. I know you must have wondered why he never touched you, didn't you?" Sylvia guessed. And by the look of discomfort on Rose's face, she understood that she guessed right."Please step aside and let me go" Rose demanded again. She started to feel increasingly uncomfortable and her gut instinct told her to run. But Sylvia blocked the way and she couldn't leave until she moved aside.Sylvia sniffed."I know I am making you feel uncomfortable. But I had to share this with you. Because Kairo refused to listen to me" she sniffed and pretended to cry.Rose frowned with concern. The vengeful woman who abused her in Russia looked arrogant. But now, she is crying. Nothing is making any sense to
Kairo is waiting impatiently for John to make his move. They made theirs and now it's John's turn. The faster they finish John, the sooner he can move back to the Volcov Mansion. He is strangely missing his clumsy wife too. As if reading his mind, his mobile started ringing. He looked at the called id and sneered. It's from an unknown number. Kairo is sure it must be from John."Kairo Bianchi" he answered the call arrogantly.Silence followed after that. Just when Kairo was about to disconnect the call, John spoke up."Kairo, how have you been?" John asked as if he hadn't tried to kill Kairo a few days ago using Antonio.Kairo seethed silently."John? I thought you were trying to kill me. Stop pretending as if you care about my well-being. I am in a bad mood now. What do you want?" Kairo asked bluntly. He couldn't let John know that he was actually waiting for his call. John smirked with satisfaction. He expected this from Kairo. If he fought with Alessandro, obviously he would be in
