All Chapters of Johnny Gravano: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter 22Alessia's POVI spent the whole day packing and drawing.No one disturbed me, for which I'm grateful.Only when Isabella came and announced that dinner was ready did I realize that I was hungry.We walked downstairs together, and I could hear voices. When we entered, I saw a few men around the table, drinking and smoking.Johnny leaned down in his chair with a cigarette in his hand, talking to Ciro and Luca. As Isabella and I took our seats, Stefano smiled at me.I gave him a small smile and noticed Isabella watching us with a frown. "Alright, that's it. I think she's in love with Stefano. That's why Camilla asked me, What's going on between the two of us?"I picked up my knife and fork, cutting the steak in front of me. I looked up at Johnny as I ate, swallowing my food."Are your parents going to be there?"Johnny gave me a single nod."So I will be meeting your family?"Again, he only gives me a single nod."Don't stress; his mother and grandmother are lovely people, but

Chapter 24Alessia’s POVI walked into the bathroom, and I took a sharp intake of air as I looked at it.It was much more relaxing than the one back at Johnny's other house. The theme color is brown and white with a Spanish flair. It features his and hers washbasins and lavatories, plus a wall of shower heads (nine in total) and a steam shower.The whole place is a double-story log cabin, which I love. It was comfortable and nothing here seems luxurious or sophisticated.I walked over to the bathtub that resembles a small pool and turned on the hot water tab then closed and locked the door. I find a honey bubble bath and pour some into the bathtub before stripping down.I slipped into my hot bathtub, letting out a blissful sight. After spending a while in the bath, I got out and dried myself, my stomach growling in the process.I opened my suitcase on my bed, I found a red silk nightgown that went down to mid-tight, I put on some red lace underwear before brushing my hair letting it fa

Chapter 26Alessia’s POVI've had a sleep-in today, seeing that the last few days have been hectic. I want to explore the house as soon as possible.The cold had intensified the last few days, making it hard to go outside. I had been thinking about using the huge jacuzzi they have but pushed the thought away, realizing Johnny would see me and get mad.Today Johnny was going to buy the paint Clarissa and I have chosen, while Clarissa and Elma went to some tea party they were invited to, and Ciro was in the study.I asked Johnny why Ciro is always in the study, never coming out, and he said he's working on something he asked him to do.The door suddenly opens and Johnny walks in."You know there's a thing called knocking?"“O, that's what they call it.” He said it without sounding like he caught the sarcasm in my voice.He closes the door and asks, "Are you sure you don't want to come with me?"I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm a hundred percent positive. Go and have fun. Do you realize th

Chapter 28Alessia’s POVIn the morning, I found myself waking up on the floor. I groaned getting up, and looking around, I realized I fell asleep in the studio.I walk towards the door, and just as I open it, Elma stands there."Good morning; breakfast is ready." She said it with a tired smile."Good morning, thank you. You look tired this morning. Didn't you sleep well?" I wondered why she had bags under her eyes.She nodded. "Clarissa and I were looking for you all night."I suddenly felt bad for scaring them like that. I wonder where Johnny and Ciro are and if they are alright."They are upstairs, my dear," Elma said, answering my unspoken question.I bit my lip. "Are they mad at me?""I don't think so dear, let's just say that room holds many memories, but it's not my place to tell you."Elma and I made our way to the kitchen, and as soon as I stepped inside, Clarissa gave me a tight hug."O my dear, I'm glad you are okay. We were worried about you.""I'm sorry." I awkwardly hugge

Chapter 30Johnny’s POVI found myself waking up before five in the morning, feeling excited about today. I'm not sure why, maybe because Alessia forgave me so quickly?I showered and wrapped the towel around me before walking to my closet. I decided to wear a pair of jeans and a black button-up shirt with my black dress shoes.By the time I was done, the clock showed six.I groaned, wondering if Alessia was ready yet. Just as I wanted to go to her room, I heard a knock on my door.Opening the door, I saw my mother standing there smiling, still in her pajamas. "Good morning, mom." I greeted her with a smile.She looked me up and down and said, "It's good to see you in casual wear instead of a suit." She said it with a sly grin.I rolled my eyes, stepping back so that she could come in.She walked in and sat on my bed, "I just want to check up on you before you go out.""I know that’s not the real reason you’re here, mom.” I said I was closing the door.She shrugged and asked, "Why did
