“Get in the car, Lily,” He began speaking, yet, I didn't bother looking at him.

“I am taking you home.”

I finally lifted my gaze to look at him, glaring at him in the process. I will never learn my lesson until he probably ends me.

“And what gives you the impression that I will get in your car after saying that?”

He sighed, as though explaining or giving an answer to my question was much work for him to do.

“And what makes you think you can go on with your everyday peaceful life after making a fuss in front of Di Benedetto?” He questioned and pulled out a box of cigarettes and a lighter from his leather jacket.

He opened the cigar box, pulled out a stick of cigarettes from it, and placed it in between his lips. Just when he was about to spark the lighter, I snatched the cigarette from his lips.

My unthinkable action seems to have caught him off guard as he raised a brow at me, obviously eager for an explanation.

“Cigarettes are not good for the lungs,” I said at once, while mentally s

    I do not appreciate him showing me this side of him, cause, I might end up falling for his gentleness forgetting that he was the devil I should avoid.*********The silence, his constant glances, and heavy awkward tension mixing with the low hum of the car engine made my heart lulled in an agitated beatJust so I could avoid the sight and constant glances of the breathtaking devil seated in an enclosed space beside me, I scooted towards the car window and leaned my head on the windscreen, looking at everything which eventually went by in a blur.I ended up getting a ride from Vincenzo even after the piles of arguments we had. I gave up. I mean, I knew he wouldn't let me go home unless he gave me a ride. I was already shaking on my feet after a stressful day, and the thought of standing there any longer wasn't near pleasing. So—I gave in. Just as he wished.“On the other hand, I want you to willingly give in too. You interest me, Lily, so I will be patient with you.”I groaned mentall

  • VINCENZO ACE—His Obsession    Lily Being A Threat Against Me—

    *Again, the italian language might not be correct🙈.**Vincenzo Ace.**A moment earlier.*“Ti sfido a.” “I dare you to.” I threatened, and instantly the whole room fell into a dark deep silence. Seeing how protective I was of her, he must have realized that I was on her side, which meant his mistake began when he asked her to bring his orders.He had come to me dripping with bravado and pride thinking he was doing me a favor, but once the game turned around, then it was always in the form of the weaker men stumbling by the outcome and losing their power.“Leave now, Lily.”Right at that moment, he knew he lost his value, which was his power, and it was time for him to bear the consequences of forcing Lily against her will to sit on his thigh.No. It wasn't about willingness. Lily also had no right, be it willingly or not, to be close to any man aside from me. A rule that can never be broken, not even by Di Benedetto who thinks a deal was worth it.That was one thing about ambitious m

    *Vincenzo Ace.*What the heck was I doing?I'd lost a business deal because of her. Everything backfired and she suddenly became a threat to be used against me, yet, I was standing out here, waiting for her under the darkness of the chilly night ensuring her safety.Di Benedetto was a cunning man. He could be dumb, but when it comes to games of tricks, it was most likely his specialty. I had placed his beloved daughter as a threat before him, momentarily taking him off the picture, but It sure wouldn't be that easy, especially when he was so fortunate to see me showing emotions for the first time because of Lily.Despite having a threat around his neck, he could risk my words and still have his men sneaking around here, monitoring Lily's every move while waiting for the perfect moment to strike and use her as a threat against me.The only advantage he had in his whole life of being the leader of the Mortale Mafia, was that killing him would definitely be a huge step and a formal decla

    At a moment like this, I always fall back to Selena who was always ready for me—who gives In to my demand whenever I needed it. I had put a call through to her a moment ago before driving over to her apartment. If she had a man in her apartment then she should kick him out before I get there.I didn't give a fuck who she was messing with, as long as she remained loyal whenever I needed her to be.I rang the doorbell of her apartment, and it didn't take her a second to fling the door open while grinning from ear to ear. She was obviously in anticipation of this moment—a moment when I return hopelessly to her bed.I reached for her lips, claiming them in mine. She didn't resist, she has never resisted as she returned the kiss with as much force as I had used, wrapping her hands around my neck while running her hands through my hair.I savored her lips hungrily, a craving I knew was meant for someone else. A replacement for my yearnings was the perfect example to explain whatever I was

    *Lily's P.O.V*I took the risk—an unthinkable one. Life shouldn't be any harder than this:I was working for free, I had debts to pay, I had rent to pay, and I had my dad and a man he claims to be my soon-to-be husband to always run away from, and there was Vincenzo.The decision I made was unreasonable yet reasonable—worthless yet worth it. My salaries are gone, and my debts are still there. Every day, life keeps on getting naturally harder for me, and I couldn't think of the possibility of it getting any harder.At least, I'd managed to get him out of my life and that was all that mattered.However, he didn't fail to leave me with the shock that he knew all the routes that led to my apartment. I didn't have to give him directions, I mean, due to the high undeniable tension between us, I literally forgot to give him directions, and in the next few minutes, he had his car parked right in front of my apartment building, and that was when reality hit me.I didn't make a big deal out of

    *Vincenzo Ace.*I threw the burnt-out cigarette on the ashtray, as I leaned into my office desk, my searing gaze roaming at the screen of my laptop before I slammed it shut.She's here, which means Lily will be here too. I knew the game she was about to play, and I was in for that game with her. If there was more reason why Selena had been alive up till this day, that reason should be now.Using her as a means to get the reaction I needed from Lily wasn't exactly what I should be doing with my life right now, especially when I had a busy schedule—countless deals to strike and different men who didn't work according to my wish, piled up for me to torture. Unfortunately, I had lost myself and my sanity the first day I set my eyes on Lily and I was admitting to it. It's not like I could hide it anymore. My obsession with Lily was getting me crazy—was making me do things I never would have imagined that I could do.The door crept open as she walked in, her eyes not leaving mine, her hips

    *Lily's P.O.V.* I ought to have ignored them. This should have been a clear realization that he could have sex with just any girl and there was nothing special about me—that I was no different from those he would consider as a ‘fling.’ But no, my dumb brain couldn't access it that way and I hated myself for that. I hated how I couldn't get my eyes off them. I hated how I just couldn't pretend as though I didn't give a fuck who he was fucking—I hated the different mixed feelings that built in me, and no matter how I tried to ignore them and act fine, I just couldn't stop myself from acting stupid. No. I am not fine with it. Yet, under no circumstances should I let him see the aftermath of what his action had done to me. That is if he'd not seen them all already.Considering the fact that I was here to serve drinks when he clearly had a bar in his office, I knew everything might be a setup and I should have gripped onto this as a reason to ignore them and not give them the satisfactio

    *Lily's P. O. V.*I have been here, in Vincenzo's house for the past two days. The cook and her daughter have been my only companion. We've been discussing and talking about a lot of things but whenever I bring up the questions about Vincenzo's past, then there's always an awkward laugh coming from her with the same reply,“It will be best if he decides to let you know, himself.”I was curious about his past. What exactly had made him ruthless? I mean, everyone is not born to be ruthless but grows up to be, due to some reasons. But then, I knew, no matter how he joked with me, we were not close enough for me to suddenly bring up the question about his past. And besides I haven't set my eyes on Vincenzo for the past two days.It makes me wonder about the number of people that must have died in those two days.I definitely shouldn't be thinking about him, especially when I'd just received a call earlier from the landlady reminding me of my deadline to pack out.I have no place to go to

    *Vincenzo Ace.*I stood right in front of her, and asked, yet again, “I asked. What are you, Selena?”She rolled her eyes and replied, sarcastically, “Selena: the girl you've been fucking. The daughter of a drug addict you've been going about searching for.”I gritted my teeth as my finger rolled up into a ball on their own accord.“You have no right whatsoever to speak in such a manner in your state. So, shut the fuck up and only speak what I need you to.”“What other response do you want from me? What hasn't that bastard said to you already.” She bellowed, her gaze darkening with fury.I should be the one mad at her—I should be the one yelling in her face, still, she held no regret whatsoever for her actions and acted like I was the reason for her misfortunes.An entirely different person—different from the submissive Selena I have always known was right in front of me. Her switching-up character still baffles me.“You killed him, right? You had the guts to pull your fucking trigger

    *Lily's P.O.V.*“Good Morning Ma’am.” I walked into the kitchen, my eyes roaming about in its luxury before settling down to meet a pair of brown bright eyes smiling up at me. She could be in her early forties, yet she looked gorgeous with a few wrinkles on her face.“Good Morning, Angel. How are you feeling today?”Angel? That sounded more like what Vincenzo would call me. It reminds me of him, unnecessarily, so, I'd prefer to be called by my name instead.“I am Lily.”I smiled genuinely at her. She studied me for a while before blinking in confusion.“Lily? He told me your name was Angel.”I chuckled in astonishment.What? Not only does he call me Angel, but he has also officially declared it my name to other people now or what?“I will prefer to be called Lily instead.”She nodded, and her smile grew as she spoke, “That's not a problem. But you should know—” She leaned forward and I leaned in. She talked so slowly, emphasizing each and every one of her words.“He said you were an a

    *Vincenzo Ace.*It was all for a competition, but she seems to hold a special hate in her heart for me.“Now, tell me—” I pulled a chair to sit right in front of Selena, “What are you?”She didn't show any indication that she had acknowledged my words. Her eyes roamed about, looking at anything else but not me.I see. She had decided that it was the best choice to handle the situation with arrogance and pride, thinking she could appear unshaken and confident.She knew perfectly since she had dwelt in the game of the kind of world I lived in. Showing fear was a great advantage to your enemies. Showing fear meant weakness.I nodded at her shielding act before turning to meet the cold eyes of my men. Hence, I instructed. “Over there—” I motioned towards the iron pipe. It has both sides stuck to the floor and one crossed over it.“I need you to tie her up there, using her hair.”Suddenly, her eyes sprout up to look at me. Her nose flared in storming rage, “What do you mean?”Regardless o

    *Lily's P.O.V.*I walked down the stairs, heading toward the dining table. His house was so magnificent, words cannot explain it. I mean, I thought my dad was rich, not until I met Vincenzo.He was so engrossed in his phone, but when he heard me walking down the stairs, he moved his gaze from his phone and then watched me intently as I ascended the stairs. He asked me to come down for breakfast and not to eat me up with his stares instead.Apparently, he has never for once attempted to hide the fact that he was devouring me with his stares. He makes his stares so obvious like it he had every right to.But then, the way he looked at me had my legs shivering. His icy glare trailed all the way down from my head right to my toe, taking in, yet again, the sight of me putting on his shirt.I was still in his shirt though and I had no clue how I got changed in the first place. And even my own dress, he is refusing to give them back.I pulled a chair from the dining table and sat on it, tryi

    *Lily's P.O.V.*I woke up with a splitting headache. My hands moved over to my forehead as I groaned mentally, twisting and curling up on the bed at how terrible I felt.However, I seemed to have moved over to the wrong side of the bed, because the blazing reflection of the sunlight struck me deep into the sockets of my eyes despite not having opened them yet.I tried to adjust to it, groaning audible this time at the discomfort, but, in the next minutes, I was breathing a sigh of relief when I heard the lid of the window shut down, abruptly putting an end to the little torture.But then, as of that moment, something seems to click in my head instead.I live alone!Swiftly, like being pulled out of a trance, I snapped my eyes open only to be met with a luxurious unfamiliar sight. My eyes scanned the high vaulted ceiling, with an enchanting fancy crystal ceiling pendant light in elegant design hung to it.My hands moved to feel the bed. So soft, big, and comfy, embracing me in the warm

    *Vincenzo Ace.*Eye contact needed to be avoided so I could stay sane enough to blurt out my next words with as much cruelty as I could.“I thought you were a little smarter. That's where you get it wrong, Lily. Someone like me is not meant to be trusted. You can only depend on yourself in this world—”“That's weird—” Selena chirps in, “Your words sound so bitter and you aren't even looking at her. What? You can't bring yourself to lie in her face?”I took in a sharp breath. Her words made my muscles tense and filled my body with resentment. I hated it when she talked too much—I hated the fact that she was taking advantage of me appearing so calm. No one bosses me around, I boss them around while I do just whatever I want.But the deeds need to be done and someone has to get hurt anyway. It was unavoidable.I turned to look at Lily, my face hardened, tightening all the avalanche of emotions showing on my face.Even in the dim light, I could see the bright pending tears building up in

    Vincenzo's P.O.V“Can I have my lady?” I spoke in a low tone.Selena scoffed before taking a step forward, “Long time no see, Vincenzo.” She said her voice sounded rough and raspy.I nodded and gave her a little smirk, “I never expected to meet you—” I rolled my eyes in a circular gesture before speaking, “In such a devastating situation. However, I do not wish to see you at the moment, Selena. Can I have Lily back?”“You know we can't go through that much trouble for you to have her so easily, right?”I hummed at her shielding response, a smile tugged at the corner of my lips.“Makes sense. Unfortunately, all efforts and years of planning end up being chaotic and seem to be a total failure from your end. Moreover, I seemed to have heard someone saying she wanted to challenge me fairly with power instead. Let's do that. But first, I need to have—”She held up a hand to silence me. I instantly blinked back my amazement at her boldness.As usual, the fake smile never left her face, as

    *Vincenzo Ace.*I sensed it. The fear of impending danger. It was an intuition on my part.I got the information that Mitchell died. Whoever pulled that fucking trigger had cleared all evidence of their horrible acts—had silenced the only mouth that could speak to expose their ferocious plans, and at the same time, had presented to me that they were around, lurking in the shadows waiting for the perfect moment to strike.Although I got a bit shaken up by the unexpected twist, I was alert—alert to do whatever to save Lily. She was my fear—the only human I cared about. They did make a perfect choice when they decided to use her to get what they wanted from me. I didn't realize until this moment that a girl, as little, daring, and stubborn with nothing favorable to say about her attitude towards me could be used against me—could end up being my weakness.If only I could pretend that I didn't care about her, then their whole plans would crumble down their feet.
