A Night With The Past 54. Luciano
PastFebruary-June 2012I signed the divorce and got my fortune back at a high cost.Those months after Ariella's death were very hard, they were ones in which I had to do catharsis, concentrate on college once and for all, as well as take my life into my own hands. According to the FBI, the mob had been dispersed, petty thieves remained, but there were no people who posed much danger to me or my family. The case by that time was closed, however, the feeling of emptiness was unbearable.Because of this, the lawyer dragged me to a therapist."You need help, you have to give in a little and someone can give you a hand to better manage your emotions," Alejandro said. “You're a guy who's going to be twenty years old, barely... You've been through a lot in a very short amount of time, it stands to reason that you need help with everything. Life will go on; you have four years left to touch without problems the fortune that you must manage for your family... You have to improve, if not for

PastJune 2012"Yes, I... What are you doing here, Luc?" Chloe asked seriously."Come and get Emma."She was very shocked by my phrase, one that was more than obvious at the time, only for her it was like something unthinkable and that put me at a disadvantage, it made me feel very insecure."She's not here," he said simply, and I nodded."I can wait for you. “"You just don't understand..." She doesn't live here anymore.The news surprised me and pleased me."Do you have her contact details? I'd like to see her..." I asked with a bit of pleading in my voice and she looked at me seriously."Emma is gone from Britton," he announced, and I frowned."Well, do you have the information, or do you not want to tell me anything? I think it's very silly that at this point in life you're still...”He interrupted me immediately."Emma left Britton, left us, and we don't know anything about her," he announced firmly, and that really left me speechless. “Look, I don't know what you're looking for

PastJuly 2014Being a lady-in-waiting came at a very high price, as high as dignity.With those two years of working, I had completely lost her, as well as her modesty and disgust. Somehow, I adapted to the lifestyle, I made it my own in a way that made it my character and a second skin."I can't imagine you coaching girls now," Lynn said humorously, "not after your first failures.”That made Alice and I laugh."Well, at some point in life, students outperform the teacher," I pointed out humorously as we watched another hardcore-type workout, one that was being a little softer than usual. “She has to hold her breath better or she'll suffocate to death.”I pointed out something obvious and Lynn went to check on that, so I just watched it all happen. However, Rocco did something he had never done in all the time he had gone to the bar to practice or give lessons. He entered with some men and they surrounded three very blonde, pale girls who looked drugged.They were taken to the back

PastJuly 2014They took me to a house on the outskirts of town and when I tried to send a message to my friend, the guy took the phone out of my hands, which made me look at him with hatred and he laughed in response."We're not idiots, you're going to write to somebody.”"It's logical, you fool..." I have to tell them something or they're going to get me and that means calling Rocco, who controls the area where you took me from and will look at the cameras set up on the street," I said confidently when it could have been a complete lie. “I need to tell them something convincing so that they don't get suspicious since one of them is waiting for me.”He nodded and asked:"Which of them?""Lilly, give it to me, if I write to you without following our peculiar way of speaking, you'll be suspicious," I asked and tried to take her cell phone.He was only faster, so without hesitation he typed nimbly and then sent a message, that made me lose much more than patience. Even more so when he t

PastJuly 2014Dinner with the Europeans was boring me.I was so lazy that I refrained from yawning everywhere, which was more troublesome than anything else. The English spoke of some investments in their land that were not of interest to Rocco, only the fact that they came to make some investments with the Basciano family and some constructions with some so-called Dantes. I had never taken on the task of researching, in fact, I didn't care about them because they were millionaires who were a lifetime away from knowing them.Yes, it was general knowledge that they were powerful people, but from there to investigate them, it was not a question that mattered to me because they never came down from their pedestals, they never associated with people of dubious reputation, which made everything much more distant. They were old foxes with power, money and they didn't need to do simple things, but only deigned to do what was concretely beneficial to them.I suppose half-deals with Englishme

PastOctober 2014I had trained myself to be a gossip par excellence.It wasn't fun, I had to follow patterns, search phones, computers, and make everything seem normal. The fool Mori, along with other agents, prepared me to know how to shoot, even though I already had hunting practice, as well as to have notions of self-defense and to be as fast as I could. However, the biggest training I had was lying.The detective in charge made me an escort, sufficiently sought after by clients with better purchasing power, and Rocco somehow promoted me.That's why I was ready to go to a business dinner of some Russians who had come to talk to Rocco's bosses, ones who were so hidden and in the shadows that their names were never mentioned. She saw me as a goddess and when Lilly dropped me off at the hotel, she told me what I expected from her:"Be practical, and if become a real problem, just dial and have your phone ready for it.""Don't worry, mother hen...”"These are men connected to the Brat

PastDecember 2014It was the end of the year and my friends had business to attend to.Lilly was going to a party where she had to take care of Rocco, who had somehow made her integrate into his security arch. I knew well that it was more than problematic, however, it was already a decision that had been more than made.In Alice's case, there was the Caribbean, enjoying a doctor who took her to take him on the most pleasant end-of-year vacation of her sad life. He was a single doctor, who belonged to a well-to-do family, and who had become a regular client of Alice's, whom she herself had to keep away. However, she liked the man to serve her in a way that others did not, even though it bored her. Dr. Koch was a nice guy, a client who stepped out of the norm of arrogant damn people who just wanted more than attention. It was problematic in more ways than one, yet it was still there.I had my suspicions that I would always keep asking for it.I didn't want to go in a two-for-one becaus
A Night With The Past 61. Emma
PastMay 2015When 2015 arrived, I didn't imagine that it would make me Rocco's most sought-after lady-in-waiting. One who could afford to say which clients to serve and which not to serve, to put a limit on how many times they could see me per year, and who had somehow paid their debts to the men who held me hostage. Or well, they made me get that excited, so I said that I would take my time and that I would still continue to enjoy the advantages that the business gave me.I wasn't an idiot, there I was making necessary connections for the future, one that was shaping up very well according to my bank account. So, I kept making my donations, kept saving and continued in the same routine, only now I could add more care and protection. The fact that she was an escort, who was gaining her rise in high society, was a very prominent point for many. That's why I avoided social media like the plague, I didn't want things to blow up in my face from one moment to the next.And so it was, that
