Angelo"Kelvin make sure our men are on standby. Dominic might decide to make noise at any moment. I won't be taken by surprise like last time." I took a sip of my coffee on the accord as I said that"Sure, Sir. I'm thinking maybe we disbursed the funds to the foundation now.""Not yet Kelvin. I want to know Dominic's moves first." Kelvin nodded in understanding. "Is there anything you want me to do?""That will be all for now, Kelvin." My eyes shifted to Marco and Elijah. They hadn't spoken a single word ever since they sat down. It was more like Kelvin was the one making an effort to do his job properly. "Elijah and Marco, looks like you guys needed more training right?" I started, intertwining my hand over the desk. I didn't miss the way Marco scoffed whereas Elijah's face was blank. "Can't you figure out why we're like this?""What do you mean?" I raised a confused brow. Marco bites his bottom lip and lets out a weak smile before fixing his eyes on me. "All this fake meeting." Hi
Angelo"So you're going show up in there, and you think it's a good idea?" Kelvin spoke up breaking the silence that had lingered in the car. We arrived at the location but I suddenly couldn't bring myself to get out of the car. Different thoughts ran through my mind while coming here. I had even pictured how I would punch him in the guts if he tried do to anything silly with Alessia.However, now that I have the chance to do that. I suddenly felt weak. At some point, Kelvin was right. What will it make me if I show up there? I will look like a coward. Yes, you are one. You will just look more stupid. A voice in my head rang. I hit the back of the chair, getting Kelvin to look at me. "Are you going inside or should I turn the car around?" Just when I was about to tell him to turn the car, a notification popped up on my phone. The visible face of Alessia laughing holding her mouth with her palms. The fuck.I was out of the car in no time, darting through the entrance of the five-star
Alessia"Who is that?""I don't know. The person wouldn't speak." I shrugged throwing the phone back on the bed. If not because Annie told me to pick up the call, I wouldn't have moved anywhere near the phone. I was enjoying my time on the bed when her phone decided to turn my ears deaf from the vanity mirror. After disrupting me, making me get down from the bed, and trekking miles to the vanity mirror, the person ended up not saying anything. The audacity of whoever the person was.I crashed back into bed, leaning my back on the pillow connected to the bedboard. "It's an unknown number. If the person is serious, he or she would call again." Annie said after checking the phone. She set it on the nightstand and then joined me in bed."So..." she started fixing her eyes on me."So, what?" I questioned brows creasing. "Tell me about your date. All the details." I didn't resist rolling my eyes. "First of all, it is not a date. Secondly, it is not a date because we only talked business."
AlessiaExhausted yet excited, I finally stepped out of the airport terminal, my trolley clattering along behind me. A sharp breath escaped my lips as I took in the sight before me, my eyes wide with disbelief. Italy. I was actually in Italy, and what's more, the trip wasn't putting a dent in my bank account. Winning this all-expenses-paid journey was a dream come true, even if Italy wasn't exactly my top bucket-list destination. Still, the attraction of the country had always held a special place in my heart, thanks to the countless pictures I'd seen on the news and social media.Just as I let the thrill of the moment wash over me, my phone rang, jolting me from my reverie. With a smile tugging at my lips, I swiped to answer, holding the phone to my ear. "Hey Mom," I greeted, my voice a mix of excitement and fatigue. "I've arrived safely. Don't worry, I'll fill you in on everything once I'm settled in my hotel room. Give Dad a hug for me. Love you, Mom."Before she could respond, I q
Alessia"How... how do you know me?" I managed to whisper, my voice trembling, the question hanging in the air like an unspoken promise. There was something inexplicable in the way our gazes had locked, as though an invisible thread connected us, binding me to this enigmatic man who now held my destiny in his hands.But he didn't answer. Instead, he turned his attention back to his phone and began speaking in rapid Italian, words that slipped through my grasp like elusive whispers. My heart quickened when I heard him mention something about bringing women. I clenched the hem of my dress, my fingers trembling. Perhaps he assumed I couldn't understand Italian. This could be my chance, my only chance.As the journey stretched on, every minute felt like an eternity. Panic coiled within me as the car continued to speed through unfamiliar territory. We had been driving for more than an hour, and my heart raced with uncertainty.Suddenly, breaking through the tense silence, the man turned to
AngeloMy mind raced with a ruthless decision. I hadn't bid on her for nothing. She was the price, the perfect pawn in this twisted game of revenge against that despicable mafia boss, Dominic. I needed something to even the score, and she was the potent weapon I now possessed.I watched with a predator's gaze as she stripped down naked before me, her fear rendering her body weak, exactly as I wanted it to be. She had dared to defy me, to claim she wasn't a whore to my face. She was in no position to question me.As she stopped before me, my eyes devoured her body with a hungry, lustful gaze. My arousal grew undeniable, and my shaft hardened at the mere sight of her. With the commanding authority in my voice, I ordered, "Come here."Her eyes widened, and her body quivered as I discarded the covers from my body, exposing my rock-hard shaft, demanding release. "Be on your knees," I commanded, my voice dripping with dominance. I saw the fear in her eyes deepen, and I relished in it. "Giv
AngeloA sinister smile curled on my lips as I saw the fear in her eyes, just as I desired. I was a man in control, and no one defied me. "Clean yourself up and get ready to join the maids." I declared.Alessia's shocked expression clouded her eyes and she stuttered "M...aids?" I cast a cold look at her and affirmed, "Yes, from today, you'll be my maid and also my sex slave." She should prepare herself to serve me. Mercilessly. "Please let me go. I have a life ahead of me. My parents, my career. I promise not to tell anyone what I saw. I swear on my life." She began begging, pleading for her freedom.But her pleas fell on deaf ears as I slapped her hard, making her stagger back. I warned her, "Next time, I'd cut off one of your fingers if you mention anything about me letting you go."Leaving her in the room, I stormed out, my mind already plotting the next move in this twisted game.I made my way downstairs, and as I did, my personal guard, Kevin, approached me with a look of urge
Alessia"Put the knife down, Alessia." The maid made slow advances towards me, yet I held the knife firmly over my neck. Maybe if I pulled a stunt, Angelo would let me go. There was no way in hell I would sit idle and allow him to control my life. I couldn't sleep last night, kept thinking about my family back at home. I was sure they had tried reaching out to me. If I knew this was what I would go through, I would've declined the trip offer."Don't take a step, or I swear I will slit my neck," I warned, holding the knife tightly."Do you know you're endangering your life by holding the knife on your neck?" The maid said but didn't make another move."Oh, you know the weapon I'm holding is dangerous. Isn't my life here a danger already? Let me go! I don't want to be here!" I shouted on top of my lungs. As I took a step back, my body hit something hard."Put that knife down." A surge of weakness passed through my body onto my legs as Angelo's deep voice attacked my ears. That made me l
