Chapter 72The Grand finale was coming to and end.This was the end of being a model.As much as I loved being a model, it was time I focused on my company."Are you wiping your face, clean?" "No.""Good." Calista walked closer to me, a towel wrapped on her head."It's a good thing you're leaving the modeling industry.""Oh please.." I rolled my eyes, knowing what we were about to talk about."It's a good thing....really." She shrugged, as she knelt down in front to me and began to eyeshadow my eye lid again."Please..not too much, I have to look like my normal self. They'll think I'm doing too much." I mumbled."Or you don't just want Bennett to ruin your makeover when he sees how stunning you are... Don't worry, I'll put in an extra kit in your bag." She chuckled. "I'm going too, though. So you don't have to worry about a single thing." She smiled and I rolled my eyes.They were hosting a party for all models and I would take this time to tell everyone about my stepping down."You'
Chapter 73OctaviaI strode over to Bennett who had his hand tucked into his trouser pocket. He was wearing a black booraldo suit and a black tie.His hair was well arranged, his perfect well shaped jaw made it more sexy..as he ran a finger down his chin.... making me have a clean view of his beautiful Rolex watch.I stood in front of him but Bennett said nothing. "Why are you here Mr Stone?""The party was held for models and businessmen....and that includes me.""So you didn't come here today cause you're a Mafia man?" I asked, a smile forming on my face."And you're not here today cause you're a businesswoman? Quit the acting miss Stiles, it doesn't suit you." He said.I chuckled. I didn't expect him to play along."Ha." I shook my head."Why are you frowning? Got ditched?'"Watching my girl let another man kiss her on the cheek, God knows how I had to restrain myself from going over there and tearing that shit apart.""Don't do that, he was my manager before....Miss Chen." I said
Chapter 74Octavia"Cazzo! What the actual fuck?!" Matteo hissed, grabbing my arm and pulling me to my feet."Guess it's time to leave, baby." He whispered, and tuned to Bennett and smiled."Let her go Matteo and I promise to keep you alive." Bennett said, more like a groan."Keep me? You have guts coming out to a place like this and letting her show up as well.. we've been watching her. The love of your life, no?" He Chuckled, and so did they men beside him."Bennett..." I whispered."You're outnumbered, so you better be careful." Matteo said again.He was right for that one.They were five and Bennett was just alone.He was alone and he was making threats?"She's so delicate..oh my God!" Matteo exclaimed and grabbed my chin."Is that a bruise I see? It's not just one...Fuck! a body of a model." He laughed.I looked over at Bennett. A bone ticked in his jaw and his grip tightened on the gun in his hand."How does it feel when you fuck her Bennett? Huh?" He chuckled. "Come on, tell me
Chapter 75OctaviaBennett wrapped his arms around me, kissing my hair as I watched the burning car.He would have changed. He could have. He had every reason to, but no....he wanted to die."I've got you, baby. Fuck! I've got you." Bennett kept singing to my ears as he picked me up and took me to his car.I blinked back the tears and shook my head."What's wrong?" He asked."That guy..." I choked. "That guy wasn't bad... He's just sick in the head and his own father uses that to his advantage." I said.Bennett sighed."That was why I was willing to let him live." He said."I'm sorry you got to see something like this.""He talked about the bane. About your father... about His Father telling yours to jump down. It was all for the business. He wasn't a bad guy." I cleaned my eyes again, feeling a little sting in my eyes."Stop crying, please." He pulled me to himself and began to stroke my hair."Thank you for coming for me." I mumbled."There's no need to thank me about that, baby. Wh
SIX MONTHS LATEROctaviaI groaned as I bent to pick something from the ground but couldn't reach it.My bump wasn't that big but it was enough to tell me to stand, to sit and relax.I sighed, heaving a deep breath as I struggled to pick my new fluffy rabbit toy Bennett had gotten for me.Well...Long story cut short, Bennett and I had gotten married after the first month of knowing about our little pipsqueak.Mom was happy. Grandpa was happy and although my father and my stepbrothers and sisters weren't smiling..they came.Even if they didn't...fuck them!They didn't know about my husband being the leader of the Italian Mafia. One word from me and they'd be eradicated from the face of the Earth."Baby." Bennett's hand snaked around my waist as he rubbed my belly."Hey." I mumbled and turned around to hug him but was stopped by my bump.He chuckled and I pouted and turned around."Three months left and we'll be holding our little pigeon on our hands." He said, and kissed my cheek."Wel
Chapter 1OctaviaThe sunset was amazing... As the blue sky was decorated with different beautiful cloud colors of red, a touch of white, and Blue.The atmosphere seem calllm, and th forecast had assured that there would be no rain, the Beach was not that perfect though.I sat on my beach carved bed, the crowd was making me so irritated and pissed.I looked around the beach and hissed.This wasn't what I had planned.I didn't leave my Town... To a private beach only to get it filled up.I watched the women in Bikinis, walk past her as they talked to each other in whispers as if gossiping about something.The children playing and make Castles with the sand.And the basketballers throwing and catching the ball in the warm cozy weather of Garfield Beach.She shook her head and turned to her Female guard that was just nearby.She curled up herself on the picnic blanket, folding her legs together as the sea wind blew past her, covering her face with some strands of her hair. She tucked th
Chapter 2Two Black cars could be seen driving into the Stone's Corporation parking lot. Workers could be seen running back to their duty posts, as the car was recognized as that of Bennett Stone.Heads down on their computers, and a quiet peaceful say.One would think that there was a ghost in the building.Bennett Stone had just arrived at the Company.The Black BMW stopped right before it could park well at the lot since another car had overtaken it by parking first."Park somewhere else," Bennett ordered quietly, glancing at the plate of the overtaker's car plate." AA3D - DC" He nodded and scoffed.The driver parked somewhere else and he got down of the car. His dark damp hair was neatly brushed down with waves...as if it was watered every minute.His jaw clenched every second. making him look like a Beautiful Beastly Immortal God whose job was to scowl every minute.His shoulders stood up, in pride and nobility. His dark Aura blazed with different emotions... As he closed
Chapter 3Bennett stood at the glass wall of his office, watching the City. His eyes peered through as if looking for someone in the streets of New York."Mr. Stone... It's time for the Meeting with the Designing Department." Ryan said as he walked into his office."And they're ready?" He asked, not moving an inch. "Yes." Came the answer, from the guy that was already jotting down things.Bennett nodded, as he turned around and grabbed his Suit Jacket.He put it on and looked up with those alluring eyes."Let's Go." He ordered, and they two left the office. ••"Good morning Sir, welcome back." The whole Designing Department greeted, them as he stepped in. He nodded and took a seat."What is the problem?" He asked, looking around. "Uhm Sir, for the new product that was launched just last week, we need a Model." The Department Leader said quickly.Bennett scoffed... As he watched the man as if he had grown heads."If you need a Model, get one. I hope this does not call fo
