Shawn went to open the door as it was strange for him that someone was visiting his house at this hour of the evening. He lived there alone and people rarely visited him.
"Where is Alizah?"
Ronan questioned as soon as Shawn opened the door and he was not able to contemplate what was happening. Why did Ronan show up all of a sudden and the first thing he did was to ask about Alizah.
"Hold on a second, how do you know that Alizah is at my house? And why are you looking for her?"
Shawn questioned but Ronan did not pay any attention to his questions as his eyes have already found Alizah, sitting near the kitchen counter. Even her eyes were glued on Ronan because she has been expecting him to know by the time about her whereabouts but she hadn't expected him to directly show up to Ronan's house.
"Alizah, how stubborn you can be?"
He questioned as he reached Alizah, and Shawn was only looking at them both with perplexed eyes.
"What do you m
"How are you so injured Alizah?"As Alizah has expected, Mrs. Benjamin started questioning as soon as Alizah got into the car after saying goodbye to Shawn. Now the biggest task for her would be to answer all her questions.She told everything to Mrs. Benjamin truthfully, leaving the part that Ronan had left her there. She just said that she went to the cafe with her friend and when they insisted on dropping her home, she refused to say she would take a bus not knowing that place was very rarely visited by any public transports and not many vehicles passed through that route. Mrs. Benjamin heard everything while driving the car."How could you be so careless Alizah to be left alone in a place that you visited for the very first time in your entire life? And that too when you have no idea about it and how are your friends who left you on your own?"Mrs. Benjamin spoke as she was more tensed for Alizah now. No wonder she was like a mother to Alizah. She has
"I can understand your worry, Paul. Alizah is new at high school so she is just trying to get herself engaged in social circles. These things happen as she has grown up now. And we don't need to worry about her when we know how determined and ethical she is."Mrs. Benjamin explained to her father. Although, Alizah felt it awkward in admitting that she wasn't just changing just to fit in between her classmates but it was because she did not want to attend that school anymore. She was so done with tolerating Ronan's bullying and everyone else who has outcasted her."I understand it well. That's why I'm not worrying as much as I can. And now when I'm assured that she is with you, so I don't need to worry."Her father trusted Mrs. Benjamin more than himself when it came to Alizah's upkeep. Alizah hung up the call as his father was satisfied with the reason as to why Alizah was staying at Mrs. Benjamin's home."See, Alizah, your father trusts me so much. Espec
"You don't have to explain anything to me just to prove yourself right, Ronan. Whatever happened, I want to get past it and it would be good if you do the same. If you want me to be thankful to you for coming back just to check on me then ok, thank you so much for doing such great favor to me and now that I have shown my gratitude to you I don't think we need to talk anymore. We have nothing to do with each other anymore please stop ruining my life, Ronan. I would be much more grateful to you."Alizah was done listening to his nonsense talks where he always proved himself right and others wrong. There was a limit to everything and Alizah has given enough chances to hi. to surpass those limits. Now the best thing they both could do was not to cross each other's path ever again but is it possible for the destined collisions to not happen?Ronan grabbed Alizah's wrist so tightly that he was hurting her. He got close to Her and murmured."You don't have to act like
"Alizah!"Mrs. Benjamin called Alizah's name to wake her up while opening the curtains of the room."Good morning, aunt."Alizah said in a sleepy voice and sat up on the bed."Good morning, Alizah. How are you feeling now?""I am feeling a lot more better and injuries don't hurt much anymore."Alizah replied."Did you get good sleep? I see you have kept the window open the whole night. It is not safe to sleep with windows open the whole night."Mrs. Benjamin queried. Alizah has forgotten to shut the windows closed after Ronan had left last night."I was feeling suffocated inside so I opened the window so that fresh air could come in."She lied hoping her aunt would not doubt or question anything further."That is alright Alizah. Tell me, will you be able to go to school today?"Mrs. Benjamin questioned."I think I will take a break for today. From tomorrow I will continue my classes. I will as
"You did not inform to me about it, Alizah. You are going to be on the cheerleading team for the next football match! Don't you know how much excited your uncle is about this match? You should have told us, right?"Mrs. Benjamin complained as Alizah has not told this to anyone except his father yet. Because she herself was not sure if she was going to learn and get into the cheerleading team or not. First wanted to make sure that she is well prepared to give the auditions and before that, it would be just a wastage to tell people about it."I wanted to inform you, aunt, but before that, I needed to make sure that it I am ready to give the auditions. This is my first time into trying cheerleading so I need to make sure that I am prepared for it first."Alizah said and her aunt agreed to her. She knew Alizah was a very hardworking and dedicated girl if she was trying cheerleading she did not have to doubt that Alizah was going to give her cent percent to it.
"You do not need to guess anything Adam until you have the proof about that person. You have no right to even take their name in such a serious matter."Alizah spoke as she was unable to determine what annoyed her more. If it was the fact that Adam was pretending to be a whole different personality in front of his mother and Mrs. Benjamin or he was just trying to speak about what Alizah has to go through in school because of Ronan? If he did the latter, there was no way Alizah was going to spare his petty soul."If Adam is taking a name then something he might have saw then only he took that name, right? What is it with this Ronan Morris?"Mrs. Benjamin questioned from her that was legitimate. If Adam so confidently took Ronan's name then he might have felt or seen something wrong with him otherwise why would he guess his name out of nowhere? That what Mrs. Benjamin has thought."Aunt, you should just calm down, and as I said we are here to have breakfast
"Of course, I haven't! what's there to complain about it? I am well capable of dealing with it on my own."Alizah replied as she could not understand why it came as a shock to Adam that she has no complaint about it or cried about it in front of her family."Yeah, sure! You can, but I just wondered everyone else who became Ronan's target is sure to get frustrated fast and they would first try to complain against Ronan and when nothing works out they would eventually need to leave the school."Adam told her which was correct! Alizah was not his first target and whenever Ronan made anyone his target he would not let their school life go pretty."So, you are saying I should be afraid of Ronan that he might make me leave the school? Do you think the school belongs to him? He has no authority over anyone. He would not tell anyone what they are ought to do, he is just a student there, like any of us."Alizah said and her voice evidently told how frustrat
Alizah spent a good time with her aunt in the spa. she could not remember the last time she had such a relaxing session. when she was in the spa she has totally forgotten about all the problems she had and her mind was much calmer and focused on things that needed her attention like her studies good grades and nothing else. after a Calming session at the spa, Mrs. Benjamin dropped Aliza to the cafe for her shift."Alizah, where were you yesterday? You do not take leave without informing usually. Is everything fine and why is there a bandage on your hand?"As soon as Alizah entered the staff room in the cafe Linda burdened her with so many questions."Calm down, Linda! it's just a long story, I will tell it to you after work. For now, I need to give my explanation about missing my yesterday's shift to our manager. where is he?"Alizah questioned and Linda was disappointed as her curiosity only rose because Alizah promised to answer her questions later.
Enzo and Duke performed as a good team and it didn't take them much time, finishing off half of Alantino's men. Even I hadn't expected that, I thought the night was gonna be end of us, it wasn't like, I didn't trust Enzo's strength but one could never underestimate Alantino too."Do you think, we can help them in anyway?"Chloe asked me."You think?"I said, gazing at the direction of those tall and muscular men. We wouldn't stand even a second."But we have to do something, we can't let them fight. They are so many and Enzo and Duke are gonna get tired up soon. We can't wait for that moment."Chloe stated as a matter of fact. She was right we couldn't just stand there and wait for men to complete their fighting. I was thinking of calling in the hotel to ask them to send more men when a car reached the spot and all of us were confused because, no-one took their ass in the direction where Russo and Amato were. Not in the sit
We exercised for two long hours and it was 9:00 am now, leaving me an hour to get ready for work. I took a long hot shower bath, the exercising session was too exhausting for me. I took my time getting ready and when I was done, I checked my reflection for one last time in the mirror. It was a habit. Being punctual, exactly at ten, Enzo knocked the door and I opened it. "Ready?" He asked and I nodded. "You only come to Rexivo to drop me and then you leave. You don't have to do that." I said as Enzo only go there to drop me and he only left once was took me to my office. He wasn't my driver, I couldn't expect that from him. "Don't worry about that. I do things that I am supposed to do and it's okay." He said not letting his emotionless mask off. I couldn't comment on that, it was Enzo and he wouldn't let me win. I walked out of the room and he followed me after closing the door. "I'll be leaving hotel soo
Enzo took a seat beside me and across Duke. Chloe and I watched him in utter shock, as he didn't even cared to explain his sudden appearance and even Duke was calm on his seat. After settling down, he looked at my bewildered face and smiled."Would you bother to explain your sudden appearance?"I questioned."I called Duke to check on everything, he told me you were planning to dine here, so I came to join you."Enzo answered."What about Genoa? You didn't you go there today?"I asked."No, Valerie I don't go there everyday. I have businesses to attend in Milan too."He said simply and that's when I realised he must also have his illegal businesses going on in here. The waitress served us food and I was happy that Enzo joined us for dinner but I was cursing Duke in my mind for telling everything to Enzo. Of course, Enzo cared for me for his own reasons but I was capable of looking after myself. We ate our food quiet
"That's a great news, Chloe."I said and there was a big grin on her mouth."I should call Enzo, first."I said and Cloe handed me the cordless phone, she was holding. But I kept it back on it's place because I wanted to call him from my personal number and for some reason it fascinated me to talk to him on phone, with my personal number. Crazy, wasn't I? I took out my phone from my handbag and was about to call him when the door flew open and Enzo's tall, muscular, beautiful body walked in. There was this formal look on his face which made him look all the more gorgeous. I pushed the thoughts aside. He was only my boss, in a way as he was letting me handle his hotel, nothing else... Right?He looked at me and said,"Congratulations on your first big achievement."He said and smiled. This time the smile reached his eyes that meant he was genuinely happy."Well, our achievement."I corrected him and he chuckled. 
"I loved it."I admitted to Enzo and he was still standing at the door, observing my expressions."I'm glad you liked it, but I'll take my leave here. Your assistant Chloe Winthrop will help you in everything. Also I'll be returning late today, so I have asked one of my best soldiers to not leave your side until I am back. He is standing outside."He told me and I peeked out to find a tall, muscular man, dressed in formals with a straight body posture, standing beside the door. He was as tall as Enzo, but I still didn't believe anyone or rely on anyone as much as I did on Enzo. But it was good to know that he cared for me and assigned me a personal bodyguards to my service. If he wanted he wouldn't have bothered about my life. He wanted to play games with his enemies and anyone could have done the help for him if not me. But it felt so good to know that he actually cared for me."Have a safe trip. I'll do fine here."I assured him and h
I panicked under Enzo's hand and he looked at me, I was petrified and nervous. Enzo followed my gaze and his grip on my shoulder tighten. Alantino made his way towards us with an unreadable face. I thought it wouldn't take me much efforts to face him, I thought I have mustered that much courage but somewhere I was wrong and for a second I thought of running away from there. But there was no turning back now, I had to face him, of I had to survive here and most importantly, to seek my revenge. I would only survive in peace, once I'd made sure that none of my adversaries, rest in peace."I suppose you have your hand on my property."Alantino said with a cold smirk to Enzo and then looked at me and the small hairs on my neck rose."Well, she is no one's property."Enzo said, pulling me towards him and exerting the more pressure in the word:property."You can't stay that close to her, she is my wife."Alantino stated as he tried to g
I took a sigh of relief as the delivery guy handed me my order.I closed door and leaned against it, I wasn't sure what had made me this scared for opening the door but the relief I felt was equivalent as someone as removed a tons of weight from my back. I took the pizza and after pouring myself a glass of juice, I sat on the couch and ate it while watching TV. They were showing the Harry Potter series, the Voldemort was troubling the little boy. But Harry was able to muster the power to win upon the evil. I ate my pizza, watching the same movie, I had watched a tons of time. It was still fun to watch it. I ate my last slice of pizza and was already full to have the desert I ordered for myself. I was feeling dizzy but did not wanted to go to my room I decided on watching the TV until I could and eventually felt asleep in the couch, was too languid to switch off the TV.I don't know what time it was when I felt something moving and my body felt a lot more lighter. T
"Okay. I understood and I will contact Williams personally tomorrow."I said."Yeah but I would prefer you contact his right hand first and don't directly ask them to stay at our hotel. That will sound creep."He said as if I didn't knew that."Okay."I nodded."Don't you think you should be good at physical training as well. I will surely provide you a body guard but you should learn self defence too. As you would be the first mafia woman to run mob business."Enzo suggested and he was right. Once the legal proceedings were done I would have many adversaries who would try to get their hands on me. I wouldn't be some general girl, they would think of me as an equivalent enemy as Enzo."When can we start my self defence training?"I asked."Tomorrow morning but for now, the lawyer is coming to get our signatures on the lease, she had already taken from the other partners. Tomorrow the
It was sunny but all windy weather in the terrace and a good amount of people were having lunch there but it still barely filled only the half of the tables . Maybe, people mostly preferred having food in their suites."Come let's go there."Enzo pointed at a table which was decorated beautifully like it was arranged for a date."Isn't it reserved?"I asked him because maybe it was for some couple, why would they decorate it heavily, everyday."The reservation was cancelled."He said looking at his tab and then he pushed it toward me to take a look. There were rows and columns in the screen telling the table numbers and those who reserved or cancelled it."Hmm ...Quite a managerial work."I admitted.He smiled and we went towards the table and sat down, the smell of hyacinth and roses was exquisite and one can sit there until they fade. It wouldn't take long though. A woman approached us as soon as we settled on the table,
