ALESSIA'S POVI smirked knowingly, as we kept looking at each other with challenges glittering in our eyes.As much as he was up for this game, I was also in for it.“ Alessia, you look so beautiful tonight.” A young man of about thirty years old, walked towards my side with a smile on his lips.“ Thank you.” I replied, returning the smile.“ I'm Brandon.” He stretched his hand forward for a handshake, which I accepted without any form of hesitation.I was single and he was obviously single also.If he wasn't single, his wife would have walked over to where I stood, pulling every single hair on my scalp.“ It's nice meeting you.” I pretended to look around for any sight of his wife, which made him chuckle.“ I know what you must be thinking. I'm single and searching.” He flashed me a flirty smile.“ Oh wow.” I chuckled.“ Can you grace me with a dance tonight?” He asked and I looked at Cassius whose eyes were getting darker.“ Sure, why not?” I replied, tore my eyes off Cassius, and w
CASSIUS'S POVEvery fucking details about Alessia Rossi, I know of it.There's not a single information about her that I didn't know of, including the fact that she would be attending her uncle's 50th birthday party tonight.I wouldn't let her go alone and let other men flirt with her.Even at the thought of it, my blood boiled so much, and my eyes turned bloodshot.“ Prepare a tuxedo suit and leather shoes for me.” I turned my gaze towards Dragon, whose head was hung low.He was damn surprised about my sudden order.Hell, I was surprised.I hated birthday parties for some reason, and that reason was a traumatic experience, so I avoided them as much as I avoided green apples, but I couldn't avoid it this time, not when Alessia would be attending.“ Boss? Birthday party?” “ It seems you've gone deaf, huh?” I said, my voice changing into a dangerous rumble.“ I'm sorry.”He left to get what I ordered of him.The thought of attending a birthday party, made my breath hitch and my grip on
ALESSIA'S POV I was feeling pleasure mixed with pain as Cassius spanked my ass and forced me to claim that I was his.Never have I been forced in my life, or we could say, I'm the stubborn type.I hate being controlled, but I couldn't resist it when it comes to Cassius.He has full control over everything in my life including my darn body.After he was done spanking me, I could stand properly.My legs wobbled on the ground, and my ass cheek ached so badly. “ Now dress you and enjoy the party like a good girl that you're.” He said deadpanned, and I just looked at him before wearing my clothes properly.I hate him and I also hate the fact that he gets to control me anytime and any fucking where he likes.After I was done dressing, I walked out of the restroom without giving a fuck about him.He wanted to speak up, but I walked out before he could even say a word.Upon getting to the door leading back to the party hall, I took in a deep breath and forced a smile on my lips.It was now
CASSIUS'S POVI don't care if Alessia hates me for spanking her ass that much, but, I would continue to do it, as long as she keeps disobeying my orders.Just when I was about to return to the party, I got a call from Dragon.“ What is Dragon?”“ Boss, we have to return to the clan. Your fiancée is back to the clan to stay, Kensley informed me.” Dragon replied, and I almost hissed in annoyance.“ Why is she in my clan? Does she want her head rolling on the ground?” I gritted as I walked out of the restroom.“ Prepare the car, we are leaving now.” I said and glanced at Alessia who was hugging her Aunt.I tore my gaze off her and headed out of the venue.“ Boss,” Dragon bowed his head and opened the car's door for me.Soon, we drove off.Upon getting to the clan, I dashed out of the car.“ You're back.” Dari said, smiling as she walked towards me.It took every ounce of willpower in me to hold back the urge to strangle her to death.Her presence irritates me, and she is daft not to know
ALESSIA'S POVAfter crying my eyes out in my car, I drove off to my place, looking like an almost dead person.I was totally fine, but Elisa's words drained the lights in my eyes and made me feel completely weak.Dragging myself into my apartment, I went to lay straight on the bed, as the past of how my parents were killed haunt the fuck out of me.Ever since they were killed, I have tried so much to shove the scene to the back of my head or rather forget it forever.Remembering that dark scene would do me no good, so I had thought about it and decided to forget it over the years.It worked. It did work.I was able to forget them for so many years, but not tonight.Elisa's words brought back the pains and anguish from eighteen years ago, and it kept haunting me, no matter how much I tried to sleep.I was on shift tomorrow, and I needed the sleep to feel alive and strong, but what can I do when my past was haunting my mind, my brain and every functioning part of my body?Turning from o
ALESSIA POVAs much as I wanted to refuse.As much as I wanted to resist, I couldn't.My body and system was excited to be fucked senselessly. Like a wild animal.“ Don't do this Cassius. I'm not ready.” I muttered, meeting his deadly eyes, while I remained on the bed.“ Don't let me repeat myself, Alessia.” He growled dangerously low, as he took slow steps towards me. “ Since you refuse to tell me what made you cry, I might as well just fuck you.”It wasn't like I couldn't tell him why I cried at the party, but I didn't want to.Maybe I also want this as much as he wanted it.He stared at me for a few seconds, my heart racing uncontrollably in my chest, like it would burst any time soon.“ Since you're not ready to tell me, Bunny, take off your clothes.” He smirked darkly, grazing his fingers against my cheeks.“ Okay.” I muttered and locked eyes with him as I took off my night wear.I wasn't putting on a bra, since I was about to sleep when he came into my room.With my eyes on him,
ALESSIA'S POVHell, he didn't stop.He continued thrusting into me like forever.The pain began to subside and was overtaken by pleasure.With my hands and legs still tied to the bed, my eyes rolled to the back of its socket.I wanted to touch him. To feel him in my palm, but he won't let me.Maybe he hates skinship that was why he tied me against the bed.“Please….Ca.. Cassius.” I pleaded, my eyes misty. “ Let me feel you in my palm. You're torturing me.”I knew it was ridiculous to ask, but I couldn't stop the urge. I couldn't fucking control it and I felt like I was being tortured.“ Nah, Bunny. I hate when I'm being touched. I'm the boss here, so you aren't permitted to touch.” He thrusted into me again and another bubble of pleasure seeped deep inside of me, causing a moan to escape my lips.“ Fuck!” I had to hold on to the ropes for life, as the pleasure was too much for me to bear.“ Turn your ass cheek.” He ordered and my once shut eyes fluttered open.“ Huh?” “ I said fuck
CECE'S POVWhen Alessia called me over and told me about Lucas's Wedding with Rachel, I almost died of a heart attack.If I were in her shoes, I wouldn't be so calm as she sounded on the phone.“ Why are you this calm, Alessia?” I had asked her over the phone but she sighed.“ There's nothing I can do, CeCe. What's over is over.” That was her reply.She was overly calm for someone whose fiancé had an affair and is about to get married to his fiancée's best friend in just a month.“ There's something you can do, Alessia. Let's go tomorrow and spill out the whole truth.” I sighed and shoved my fingers into my hair as I prepared to leave my apartment.“ We should ruin their wedding.” “ No! No! We shouldn't do that, and moreover, I'm going there to show them that I can live well without them in my life.” Alessia replied to me, and I immediately felt weak.How I wished I had such a strong heart like Alessia does.Only the thought of it made goosebumps fill my body and the hair at the back
ALESSIA'S POV My worst fear has finally shown its ugly head.When I thought I would be having a life of bliss. The life I have always dreamt of, with Cassius.As a Mafia lord, I know an arranged marriage would be beneficial for him, at some point. But I never realised it would be sooner than I expected.Would it be greedy to say that I want Cassius all to myself?I want him to get married to me and not some arranged bride?But, since it all got to this, my heart was shattered into millions of pieces and a fist-sized lump lodged in my throat.The reality of everything weighed on my shoulder, and my stomach twisted with some feelings that I couldn't quite place a finger on.I felt low and used, as tears cascaded down my cheeks and fell on my thighs.“ Stop crying, Alessia,” CeCe held my shoulder tight, trying to comfort me, but I didn't feel the need to be comforted. I can't be comforted. “ We can settle this. Just call his again.”“ I can't, CeCe. He already made his pick, but I have
ARIA'S POV “ If only I knew you were also after my pants, I wouldn't have let you come closer.” I narrowed my eyes. “ You're no different from those thugs who tried to rape me two days ago.”I shouldn't have said such, but I was too angry to stop myself, and now, Banks is also mad.Lately, he became so obsessive with me, stalking and following me around, and that alone, made me angry and mad.I didn't know what he was after, but one thing is sure, he is after my pants. Once he gets what he wants, he disappears from my life, and I must admit, I'm afraid of that.I don't want to give my all to someone, and then get abandoned after, just the way my mum abandoned I and my dad, and now, he transfers his aggression on me.During the party tonight, Penelope urged me to come with her, and I did.I saw Banks from the corners of my eyes, flirting with a girl, and I felt my chest tightened for some weird reason.My throat ran dry and it felt as if there was a lump in my throat, impossible to di
CASSIUS'S POV Today, I was supposed to pick Alessia from the hospital - no, I had plans of picking her, if only Father didn't ruin my plan.I was dressing up, ready to head to the hospital, when I got a call from him.“ What do you want?” That was the first words that left my lips, immediately I picked up his call.He is bad news.Whatever he had to say, wasn't anything close to good news, my instincts were never wrong.“ Come to Magdalene's villa, we need to discuss about the wedding.” He cold authorative voice said from the other end of the phone.I remained silent for a few seconds, before a dark chuckle spilled out of my lips.Was this old man kidding me?He is definitely fucking with me, and I swear, it won't be funny- it would be fucking bloody.“ I need a response from you, Cassius!” He yelled but I cut him off.“ You don't get to yell at me old man!” I was pissed off. “ If you really want to be in-laws with Magdalene, you can as well marry her daughter, and leave me the fuck
ALESSIA'S POV It's been a week in the hospital, and now, finally, I was discharged.Cassius has been overly good to me. Maybe, I was thinking too much about it, but to me, it seems so.He never left my side, and often slept in the hospital with me, if CeCe has a nigh shift at the hospital.Unfortunately, today, he proved me wrong. He proved that whatever fucked up thoughts I had in my head, was a big bloody lie.He wasn't here today.For some reason, I felt sad and my heart dropped to my stomach, when I got a single-line message from him, saying;‘ I won't be there with you, I have something important to attend.’And that was all.I know, I fucking know that everyone has one or two important things to attend to, but why do I feel like whatever he had to attend to, was more important than I was?“ Can you stop sighing already?” CeCe heaved a sigh, as she led the way out of the ward. “ He didn't come, doesn't mean he won't come forever, Alessia.”“ But why do I feel troubled?” I asked.
AUTHOR'S POV.MAGDALENE’S MANSION In the beautiful mansion of Magdalene, a beautiful lady of about twenty five years, came down from the stairs.Her fair skin radiated her beauty and her slender legs, made her look more like a model.“ Are you heading somewhere, Adeline?” Magdalene asked, dragging her gaze from the newspaper in her hand to her daughter.“ I just want to stroll out. Am I not permitted?” Adeline pouted.“ You have my permission, but no alcohol or heavy drinking. You will be getting married soon, and I won't tolerate that.” Magdalene’s voice turned stern.“ Fine. I just can't wait to see my fiancé and what he looks like.” Adeline heaved a sigh.“ You would fall in love with him once you set your eyes on him. He is so handsome.” Magdalene's stern face turned soft as she spoke about Cassius.“ I hope so too.” Adeline smiled. “ Bye mama.”Adeline walked out of the mansion, and once she was gone, Magdalene took out her phone and dialled a line.“ Follow Adeline, and make su
BANKS’S POVEverything seemed weird from the night I came across her on the street.Aria.She was starting to become an obsession. My obsession.Even when I was in Australia, no girl caught my interest, and I rarely fuck because of that.But now, I think Aria has unleashed the demons in me, because I can't stop myself.She became an obsession that I can't control.That night when I saved her from those thugs.I wanted to return, find those bloody bastards and cut off their dicks, so they won't mess with her next time, but lucky for them, they were no where to be found.I will still carry out my intentions, once I find them.Asking Aria for her address, I wanted to take her home, and make sure she arrives safely, before returning to the clan, but she took it the wrong way.And when I told her I love women with big boobs and ass, I was only teasing her, but she completely fell for it.I could see vividly well, how her eyes flared up in anger and her cheeks burned red with embarrassment.
ARIA'S POVI never expected to meet him. Infact, I never got once thought that our part would cross, let alone saving me from those thugs, but I was grateful he did.What would have become of me, if those thugs really had their way with me?My dignity, my pride as a woman. I would have lost all, if not for his help.The hatred i harbour against him, reduced a little.I couldn't say I hate him that much anymore, but I still don't like him.The dark aura, the dark smirk, the devilsh brown eyes. They are so intimidating as fuck!I stood riled to the ground as he sent those thugs away.I couldn't believe what was happening, not until he stood in front of me, his devilsh smirk, dancing at the corners of his lips.“ Are you a statue?” He asked, when he saw that I was frozen.“ Huh?” I was jerked out of my thoughts by his voice.“ If you want to get fucked by them, remain here.” He said coldly, shoved his hands inside his pocket and began to walk away.I was gripped with fear at the thought
CASSIUS'S POV After what Father said, I felt the blood in my body rushed to me head, and every bone in my body hardened.I dare him to try that shit with me.With a glare that could freeze even a demon, I turned sharply to Father and said, “ I. Dare. You. To. Fucking. Try. It.”I walked away, out of his fucked up clan after saying that.Even if I had to protect Alessia with my life, I would gladly do that, and never would I let Father kill her just because he wants me to bend to his rules.He had always wanted to rule over me and my Clan, since I happened to be the King of the underworld, but I didn't give him that chance to.And now that he seems to have the opportunity through Alessia, he wants to ride it.I drove off with my bike, heading straight to my clan to have a good rest.I haven't slept for a while due to the upcoming mission.The mission was said to be dangerous, Infact, the most deadly I have ever done in my whole entire life.But damn, I was so prepared for it.With thi
ALESSIA'S POV Upon getting to my apartment, I was so tired and my legs weren't left out. They were sore and so was middle, due to how rough Cassius was. After taking a cold shower, I was about to retire to bed, when I heard banging on my door. I jerked up, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. “ Who…is that?” My voice trailed off, as I grabbed my Pepper spray, ready to use it all on the person banging on my door. “ Open the door, Alessia. It's me, Lucas.” A masculine voice spoke up, and that was when I let my guard down. Going forward to the door, I opened it and drunk Lucas staggered into my apartment. My brows creased, as I locked the door and turned around to face him. “ Why are you here?” I placed both of my both hands on my waist. “ I came to apologise.” Lucas slurred, his eyes rolling continuously, while I stared blankly at him. “ As you can see, Lucas.” i started, my breath whooshing as i dipped my fingers into my hair. ‘ I'm about to go to bed. Can you p
