MASSIMO'S POV(The Pov Y'all Have Being Waiting For) A small grunt escaped my lips as I turned the bandage over my would gently. I didn't want to think of a way to pay back yet, so I just distracted myself by using the bandage to cover the wounds.I knew Luciano would want to see me after the fight, especially since Tiffany saw that. As expected, he came looking for me, that’s why I stashed the gun in my jacket. He said he only wanted to talk so I lowered the gun and led the way to the abandoned alley.The plan was to walk out of here without complications. Well, like always, shit just got complicated.That son of a bitch really stabbed me!"What the hell happened?" Gladys screamed as she walked into me placing the bandage.A grunt escaped my lips and I paused before trying the bandage again."What the hell happened to you?" Gladys asked again like I didn't hear her the first time."Answer me Massimo, you're getting me scared," she said and her scowl deepened."Just go," I
As I opened my eyes, all I could think of was the sex.My mouth tasted sort of sour so it was easy to figure out what was happening. I had a drunk night and was probably waking up to the rest type of hangover.I held my head with one hand and yawned before turning to look beside me.Gladys was fast asleep on the bed with the bedspread covering her nakedness.Memories from the sex we had all night flashed in my head and for a moment, I didn't know what to feel.I tapped her and when she woke up, she looked at me with so much confusion.I could tell she still felt sleepy but I couldn't have her sleep over and still more sleep on my bed. "Wake up," I muttered to her. "You should be useful."Her scowl deepened but I just tossed some cash on the bed for her."That's for the sex," I told her without looking at her.She frowned but as usual, she took the cash and stood up from the bed.She turned to look at me and smirked. "Last night was hot."She looked thirsty but I wasn't about to give i
I took a deep breath and lowered the book I was holding to the couch.I checked my wrist watch and it was fifteen past the time Tiffany said she'd come over.I tried to take my mind off the whole situation but it wasn't working. All I could think of was to get a glass of distilled whiskey.I reached for the slab and poured some to the glass. I gulped it down in one turn and a furrow appeared on my forehead.I dropped the glass and turned away, walking back to the couch. I picked up my phone in an attempt to call her but I stopped myself. I should not make her feel tensed or make her feel uncomfortable. I dialed Antonio's number instead and ordered for him to meet me inside the house.Few seconds after the call ended, I heard footsteps and turned in the direction of the footsteps. It was Antonio. He was dressed in an all black outfit and his shirt depicted how much of a broad shoulder man he was."Boss," he said. "You called for me.""Yes I did," I responded. "Are you sure you saw Ti
I swallowed hard at the thought that Gladys could be up to something. There was this ill feeling that I couldn't brush of. For some reason my guts just don't feel like this girl was ordinary but....what else. She was a goddamn sex freak who sometimes felt like she should be above all. She just have a way of getting things her own way which was always annoying. I picked up my phone again and texted Tiffany asking for her exact location. When the text delivered, I stood there impatiently waiting for a response. My phone pinged signaling a response and when I checked it, Tiff already sent an address. I turned to grab my keys immediately and I headed out. My feet was steady on the accelerator while my left hand navigated the car through the streets. My phone buzzed and I checked the caller ID expecting it to be Tiffany but it wasn't her. It was Luciano. "Shit" I panicked. What should I say to him? What if he want to apologize and agree for us to r
Hours had passed but I was still feeling some sort of way. It was like there was something wrong that I couldn't place.I suspected Gladys of fowl play but I didn't have any proof about it. There was nothing I had on her except that she was acting really weird for some goddamn reasons.I stood behind the counter waiting for the girls to finish up with whatever they had going on. I turned to look around but it was still the same way it was an hour ago. Just when I decided to take a look at the other end, Gladys appeared."There you are," she said with a scowl. "I'm fucking exhausted."Well who isn't? I sure as hell felt the same way, mentally, physically and in every aspect buy I wasn't about to relate to her troubles."Need some snacks?" She asked when I wasn't responding."No thanks."I didn't want to say much, I just wanted to make sure everything was alright and head back home."Where's Tiffany?" I asked her."Coming. She's grabbing a few things."I gave a small nod and turned in t
LUCIANO'S POVThere was a burning sensation in my throat and also a rush of adrenaline.Vodka wasn't the best alcohol for me but I still went ahead to drink it and now I was drunk with no clear intention.I was lucky to get home without driving into a bridge or some shop. When I got home, I turned off the ignition of my car and waited in the car for a moment.I places my hand on the steering wheel and then lowered my head to touch it before gently hitting my hands on it. I felt some type of way that I couldn't place but I knew it wasn't good. The emotion wasn't something I liked cause for a moment, it felt like I was experiencing a rush in my body and the next moment, my chest felt heavy like there was some type of weight on it.I sighed audibly and opened the door. I climbed out and slammed the door before going inside the house. I couldn't stop wondering if I was making a mistake, Tiffany was making me feel stupid and the thought of it made me cringe hard.I wondered if I was appe
I turned to the other side of the bed and opened my eyes gently. I yawned loudly and then used my hands to cover my mouth."Oh shit," I muttered as I stretched and looked around the room.I rubbed my hand over my forehead, absolutely humiliated as I sat on my bed and saw the whole bed littered with snacks.Looking around the room, I yawned again then paused to remember what happened last night.Of course I remember gulping vodka like it was water. I also remember staggering for the most part and also how I almost shot Tiffany.Everything was blurry and I tried to hold my head as a way of stopping my head from hurting. I was having a hangover and the only thing that could help was to get food or something to eat.Just then, Tiffany's voice filled my head and I tried hard to remember what she said the previous night. It felt like a dream, all what she said about caring for me. A small smile crept on my lips as I remembered her words but the smile disappeared almost immediately and I w
Tiffany was alone in her room and she hadn't come out all day.A part of me felt bad and the other part felt scared. It's been two days since we had that conversation and every minute left me wondering what she was up to.Was she planning to run away? It didn't make any sense but somehow, I was scared of what she could do.I was worried about her so I made sure not to let her leave the house after the discussion. I told her to call Zino but my father was yet to call me. I wondered if she told him about her plans yet or she was seeking means to do it without anyone knowing.For the lost part of my thoughts, I felt like a bad person for locking her in so I decided to apologize to her.I walked to her door in well calculated strides and waited for a moment before knocking.I knocked gently on the door waiting for a response but there was no response."Tiffany!" I called from the door. "Can you hear me? I know you're in there."I took a deep breath and continued knocking. "Look, I'm sorr
