Chapter 31

MenaIt had been such a long time since I had heard such a loud bass in my ears. So long that I couldn’t even remember.The lights flashed all colors, and from the balcony of the VIP area, I could see people occupying the dance floor, having fun and showing some life.Way different than any atmosphere I had been in for the last couple of months.My eyes searched for Alessio, and the moment they’d found him, I had to let out a chuckle. His hands were around Gian, and he helped him stand up straight. He was so drunk he couldn’t remember his name anymore.The area was filled with his entourage. Beautiful women who had indeed gave me a run for my money, and more of his friends. Alessio also knew the guys. Some of them I had seen at the Fanucci mansion. Alessio didn’t look all that surprised at the outcome, and I guessed must’ve been used to Gian’s way of partying.Even though he was supporting his brother, he was still joking around with the guys and having a good time. When we had walked

Chapter 32

MenaI furrowed my brows and pursed my lips, deciding not to interfere. This should get interesting.The guy nudged my shoulder. “Excuse me. Do you know him?”“Oh, I—““Does she know you?” Alessio moved his arm over my shoulder, pulling me in a protective matter. “She wants you to get up, and walk away. Now.” he became colder by each word that left his mouth.“I asked you first. Who are you anyway?” This guy didn’t know who he was dealing it, and by the looks of it, would not take no for an answer.“W-Who am I?” Alessio struggled to find his words. “Back home I never have to answer this question.”I laughed at the idea of some random guy humbling him like that.“Alessio Fanucci. My name is on the club,” he snarled. “Now get up and get going.”This time the guy’s demeanor had changed. With his hands in the air, he got up from the stool. “Sorry man,” he apologized. “My bad.”I felt bad for him as he stumbled away because of the nerves. He didn’t recognize him, but he recognized the name

Chapter 33

AnsonImpatiently, I tapped my feet on the beat of the pouring rain as I waited in front of the mansion that would change my life.I had traveled all the way to Los Angeles for this, and I would not be leaving without meeting him.Leonardo Donati.The Leone.“What’s the name again, boy?” A rude guard at the gate asked, holding his communication device close to his mouth.“Anson Falco—that is F-A-L-C-O,” I spelled out my name. “I need to meet Leonardo Donati. It’s important!”He walked off again, eyeing me suspiciously as his mouth moved into the device. Sure, it was odd. A random man dressed in ordinary clothing demanding to meet the big boss, but I had my reasons.That bitch was going down, and so was her little boyfriend who she had sent after me.After years of being ungrateful, she packed her bags, my daughter, and fled. I had been looking for her for a while, and when I had found her—I learned that she had moved to a big mansion and would become the daughter-in-law of some powerf

Chapter 34

AlessioStepping into dad’s office felt different this time. It wasn’t the usual bad news I came to deliver. The deal was closed, and Diego agreed to do business with us.Dad smiled, reaching for the champagne, and then he poured uncle another glass. “This,” he said, holding his drink up, “is a big achievement, Ales. Pulling Diego in is not something just anyone could have done."I looked back at Donni and Levi, who stood at the door. “I have Donni to thank for that,” I admitted, giving him a nod of acknowledgment. He was the one who got me the meeting in the first place.“I wasn’t even there. It was all you,” Donni wouldn’t take the praise.Uncle Stefano rushed towards Donni and patted him on his back. He’d always had a special affection for him. “I see big things in your future,” he told him.So now what?All sudden he was psychic?I chuckled to myself, thinking about the drastic change in their behavior. Dad and Uncle were practically shitting themselves. Now here they were, toasti

Chapter 35

AlessioIt was meant to be brief, just a show to silence any doubts Dad or Uncle had about us, but the moment our lips met, something shifted. I could taste the sweet fruity lipgloss on her lips, and needed more.Gently, I moved a hand to her waist, gripping her bare skin with my hands. I pulled her closer and licked her lip with my tongue, wanting to see how far she was willing to go. She opened her mouth slightly, inviting me to deepen the kiss, and I did.The reason behind the kiss—all faded away until there was nothing but the warmth of her lips against mine. Fuck it, it wasn’t just for show anymore. We were both into it, and to deny that would be a crime.I slid my hands to her ass before lifting her up, and sat her down on the edge of dad’s office, neither one of us daring to cut off the kiss. I might’ve even thrown some of his papers on the floor in the process. I didn’t give a damn about anyone in that office. We were both desperate for air, yet neither of us dared to break aw

Chapter 36

MenaIt seemed like my fingers were working overtime as I was texting back and forth with Pilar. If we weren’t texting, we were talking over the phone.In the span of just a week, we had gone from acquaintances to close friends and I couldn’t imagine my life without her. We had bonded over everything, from our shared sense of humor to our late night conversations about unserious things.‘Anyway, how’s that fine man of yours doing?’ I put down my phone just as quickly as I had read that text.My gaze drifted toward the closed bathroom door which Alessio was behind, showering.The fresh memory of our kiss was still in my mind. He had never addressed it again, just pretended as if it didn’t happen. It was good because it wasn’t something to discuss, but also horrible because it meant he didn’t felt that ‘thing’ what I felt during the kiss.It was a strange feeling I had never had before, not with Anson or any other high school flings. And as much as I tried to push that thought aside, I

Chapter 37

MenaWaking up to an empty room had become a familiar sight, and this morning was no exception.Alessio had left early, as he always did. Fun fact, I had never actually seen him asleep before and had a theory that he might actually be a vampire.Sharing the bed with him last night wasn’t awkward at all. I felt comfortable around him which was something I could’ve never imagined a few weeks ago.Truthfully, I didn’t mind him leaving before me because that way he wouldn’t have to see my swollen face in the morning.After dropping Naty off at school, the mansion felt overwhelmingly large and empty. It seemed like everyone had something to do, except for me. I hated being a maid, and I wasn’t that big on cleaning—but it was better than doing nothing all day.In the afternoon, I encountered Liza, who had helped me so much in my first week as a maid here. She clearly wasn’t jumping up and down to have a conversation, so I didn’t bother her. If she feared befriending me because of the Fanucc

Chapter 38

MenaSo, there we were.The three of us seated at a diner, eating lunch together. Levi and Donni’s plates were filled with a burger and fries, while I settled for a salad because I didn’t want to chew too much in front of them.I know, very stupid—but it was just a habit of mine.The two were too busy with each other, and listening to their conversations, from football to basketball, I felt like some sort of intruder. Sports had never caught my interest, and their boring talk made me fall asleep.I wondered if Alessio liked sports.“We should stop talking ahout this. Mena is getting bored.” Levi finally noticed I didn’t had anything interesting to add.Donni smirked, and I knew some crap was about to leave his mouth. “She’d get bored anyway because she is a boring person.”Levi offered me a sympathetic smile, and right then and there I knew he agreed with Donni. “I’m not a boring person!” I flipped, a bit too frustrated.“Oh yeah?” Donni spoke. “Then what do you do in your spare time

Chapter 39

AlessioApologizing to Leonardo Baldini sounded as horrible in my head as I thought it would be. With a deep sigh, I glared at Levi, who was focused on the road, his hands a little too steady on the wheel because he knew I blamed him for this.I had told him multiple times that we wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for him because he needed to know the facts. He was nervous, I could sense it—but I didn’t set us up, he did."You remember Mena’s ex?" I broke the silence, wanting to get something off my chest.Levi chuckled, for once happy that I spoke about something other than blaming him. “Yes, I do. What about him?”I shook my head, leaning back in my seat. “The way Mena described him…like he is the biggest monster in the universe,” I said. “I was thinking, someone like that wouldn’t back down, would he? It just doesn’t sound right.”“Then what do you think?”“Nothing,” I dismissed the nagging feeling in the back of my head. I didn’t want to look crazy or maybe even fearful because of tha

Chapter 40

AlessioWe waited on the plane, killing time before heading to another meeting. I still couldn’t wrap my head around what had just happened at the Baldinis.Leonardo, who was so full of anger to the point that many wouldn’t even talk to him, calmly accepting my apology without calling me out of my name just wasn’t realistic at all."What's up?" Levi asked after observing me for a while."Leonardo was too easy," I told him. "It's not like him to just accept an apology without making clear how much I’ll regret it."Levi shrugged. “Maybe he just doesn’t want to waste his time arguing anymore.”His answer didn’t surprise me since he wasn’t all that familiar with the Baldinis."Maybe," I said, still unconvinced. At that moment, my phone rang, and I picked up seeing it was dad."Did you apologize properly?" he asked without saying as much as a hello."I’m still alive, and I’m doing fine, Dad, thank you," I replied, my voice dripping with sarcasm. It was always like that, and he never learne
