Chapter 52ALLESIA “You are disgusting, you know that right?” I spat with venom.“Yeah, I know. And I'm about to show you just how despicable I am.” I inhaled deeply and forced myself to look at them. Russel seemed to appreciate my obedience because he gave me an appreciative smile. I didn't want anymore punishments from him, I decided. After seeing the length he could go to humiliate me now, I honestly didn't think I had the stomach to watch this the next time.Maintaining his focus on me, Russel allowed the girl to continue her touching . With her hands firmly holding his base, she began taking more of him into her mouth. I swallowed hard as I watched him shut his eyes momentarily, he even groaned loudly. To my utter dismay, watching them began to give me a weird sensation to explain. Russel noticed my discomfort and the way I tried to cross my legs over the other and smirked, understanding the effect he was having on me. With a smirk, he seized a handful of the girl’s hair, using

Chapter 54 RUSSEL It took me fifteen minutes to get ready, yet I was still cussing underneath my breath for taking so long. The last thing I wanted was a run in with Hyacinth and her filthy family, I thought as I scrambled to pull on my suit jacket, the fabric catching on my sleeves as I hurriedly straightened my tie.I finished with the tie and picked my phone, I made towards the door, only to find Kegan standing there, blocking me as his brows wrinkled in a tight frown. I gave him a sour look and waited for him to get out of my way or state his mission, but he pushed me aside and entered the room instead. “Just how hard is it to get a hold of you? There are cellphones for a reason, you know?” I checked my phone and bad enough, there were over ten missed calls from just Kegan, “I know you're old fashioned and you probably don't know what technology is, but whenever you see my name pop up on that piece of computer in your hand, you swipe right and answer the damn call!” I rolled my

Chapter 56ALLESIA I'd never been around so much tension in my life, certainly not with my three-man nuclear family. Russel, I realize, had a very large family which consisted of people with different personalities and perception of the world. But they all shared one thing in common– they were all wealthy and proud. The breakfast came to an abrupt end after Russel left with brothers, the tension was far too much. All that revelation, with all that frustration that was left to simmer on the surface and their tempers were even hotter than the meals before us. I couldn't even eat a bite as I was unable to shake the feeling of his mother's eyes watching me. She hated me from the moment she saw me, but if she could hate her own son, who was I? From their conversation, I could pick up a few things though, things about Russel that I would never had known. And somehow, I could mirror his pain, even though I could never really understand how much it affected him. Like me, he had suffered a

CHAPTER 58RUSSEL After the cops left, I watched as Allesia place her hand on her lips, her expression lost in dreamy confusion, I felt a surge of emotions bubbling within me at the realization that she had just saved me for the second time, for whatever reason I could not tell. Left for me, I would have preferred to turn those cops into corpses, but no thanks to Kegan and the very reasonable Vincenzo. And now I was actually indebted to Allesia again. How do I repay her? And what was that thing she did with her eyes that felt like she could see right through my soul, like she could communicate through her eyes and somehow, my own eyes had a way of understanding her without any spoken words between us. I released a sigh, perhaps if I just thanked her then all these stupid thoughts would go away. But then, maybe not saying anything to the cops was her way of apologizing for disrespecting me last night. She did slap me after all, didn't she? But I also forced her to watch me fuck

Chapter 60ALESSIA I thought I was doing the right thing by helping him, but now I questioned if it was worth it. Maybe I misunderstood that look in his eyes, those devilish green eyes that said different things all at once. For a moment there, I had thought I saw a vulnerability in him, but how mistaken I was, because at the end of it all, I was the vulnerable one. I mean, was he not the great Russel Mancini? He always had things under control, even people, including me. And again, I made a fool out of myself in front of him and his brothers. What is wrong with me? Why couldn't I just be normal? Oh please, I scoffed miserably, how did I think I was going to have a normal life after signing my life away. Renzo was right after all. Oh how I miss him! I miss Elletra, I miss my mum! Maybe I miss my simple life at the bar. My chest suddenly felt dry and my throat constricted because of all the crying I had done. I can't believe I was allowing that stupid jerk to get into my emotions
