She's Not Crippled?Marcello's POV."No!! No!! No!! Leave him alone!! Please, let him be!" Karissa cried out as she struggled to get her hand off the grip she was in.She just couldn't hold in the sadness that was filled in her heart as she yelled at the top of her voice.I had pity on her, I wished she was never dragged into this but because of me, she was here.I let out heavy breaths, still looking at her and watching her eyes bulge out when unfortunately, I got hit by a bullet on my left leg from behind."Ahhhhhhh!!!" I wailed, clutching my leg in pain and sorrow with my eyes shut and my teeth gnashing in horror."Marcello!!" Karissa shrieked ferociously at the top of her voice as I watched cold tears gush down her ashen cheeks in affliction.I fell down on my knees, exerting for air. I was rendered useless, I was going to just be used by them how they wanted. I was with my gun but I couldn't reach for it. All I had was just my strength to fight back. I was going to kill them no
The Devil Doesn't Bargain.Marcello's POV.**************One week later…. "Marcello is seen in his study room, looking all cold and quiet, but yet lost in his thoughts and buried in fury…" ******"She isn't Crippled" (clicks..).Relaxing on my executive couch and sipping my wine from my transparent but yet portable wine cup, I thought about what would become of me now that I knew the truth about Karissa."I shouldn't have stopped investigating back then!" I heaved a heavy sigh as I stared endlessly at the table that was placed before me.Still trying to fix or place the right pegs into the right holes and know what to do, Vincent walked into the sitting room with a bold but yet unhappy aura all over him."...." I refused to utter a word to him as I drummed the edge of my couch with my fingers."She has been in the hospital for over three days now, don't you think it is time for you to go see her, Sir Marcello?" He asked, making me wonder what I was to him.He had spoken up to me
Take Over Now!!Marcello's POV."Who the fuck is there?" I questioned with rage taking over me."Sir, it's … Vincent." Vincent's voice echoed from outside my room which made me furious. I trudged towards the door angrily just to warn him to stop coming at me.I warned him earlier to let me be and here he was again, still coming to be a bother to me.I was sure he was coming to inform me about going to meet Karissa and I just didn't want that."What the hell are you doing here? What do you want from me this time Vincent?" I bellowed the split second I opened the room door to Vincent who looked rather calm than hot.He looked pale at that and it made me worry about his health for a moment."Sir…" he whispered, making me focus on his eyes this time rather than his face.He instantly gave me an eye signal which he usually does only when my dad is around him."What?" I muttered, still staring at him so he could explain more to me. Because last I checked, my dad was still in the UK.So gett
Touch Me Please.Karissa's POV.********At The Hospital…."Marcello didn't come!" I mumbled as I played with my fingers in sadness. I was so focused on the fact that Marcello would reject me the second he laid his eyes on me when fortunately, a knock was heard on my hospital door."Come in!!" I invited, wiping off the tiny tears that had rolled down my cheek."Good morning ma'am" Sarah greeted the minute she walked into my room with the brightest smile on her face. The second she saw me sitting on my bed, she couldn't help but wish me good health and I loved that."We need to leave now, Mrs. Mario. Where are your belongings?" She inquired, making me point to the direction where they were."There…" She walked over to where my bags were kept and with a delightful heart, I watched her do her thing.She turned to me and had a quick glance at me before continuing with what she was doing."What?" I chuckled, awaiting her response."Are you sure you are ready to go home now, ma'am?" Sarah
What Is He Up To?Marcello's POV.Standing closer to my window a day after Karissa had returned home, I wondered what life would have been if everyone was fair to each other.I was so lost in my thoughts about Karissa that the devil herself walked into my room without my permission. I was sure she was the one, it was her footsteps alright."What do you want from me, you liar?" I questioned Karissa with a cold glance as I stood closer to the window."I…" she stuttered, which I disliked so much. If she was going to talk to me, then she should be able to stand bold other than acting too weak."I don't need your help!" I uttered before continuing with what I was doing, looking outside my window."Come on Marcello, I know that you want me right now, I know you want to feel me, you want to touch me Marcello!" A whisper that was so tempting sounded right below my chin as I focused on my window.I turned around immediately to ask her to leave the room, realising the kind of impact her voice w
You Are No Saint Yourself.Karissa's POV.Relaxing on the couch that was in the sitting room, I reminisced about the moment when Marcello had to send me out of his room without looking back.All because I tried my best in hiding the fact that I wasn't crippled. I heaved a heavy sigh as bitterness filled my heart.I wished things never happened the way it was happening though. I had turned into a stranger overnight because of my sister's wish in my house."I still shouldn't have accepted to help her!" I grumbled, rolling my eyes in regrets.With my head inclined to the ground as I pondered on my next move to make him smile at me, I heard trudging steps, coming closer to where I was sitting.I raised my gaze to where it was coming from and to my greatest surprise, it was Marcello, again.He had just sent me out of his room, and here he was , coming towards my direction.'Was he coming to apologise for treating me that way?' I contemplated as I stood to my feet in excitement.I was going
Where The Fuck Did She Go?Marcello's POV."You committed a crime too by not informing me you were a Mafia so why the fuck are you trying to make me look like a fool??" Karissa bellowed as she stood right before me.I knew she wasn't always the soft kind but I never expected her to hack off before my face in such a way."You were no saint yourself Marcello!! Why the fuck do you keep coming at me when you can just forgive me?" "What is that supposed to mean Karissa??" I questioned in an authoritative tone with my eyes opened to her sight."I did what I had to do to save you, and yet you are not grateful for it? I should have just let you die in their hands.!" She asserted with a scoff leaving her lips.************"Arrgghhh!!" I sat up on my bed stiffly with a groan escaping my lips in annoyance. 'What was she thinking about now? What was she up to?.' I contemplated as I wasn't sure about the reason for her reaction.I never imagined Karissa yelling at me and making me see reasons w
Stay Still, Karissa.Karissa's POV."Make sure she doesn't leave the house Sarah.. if I come back and search for her, then you wouldn't be Happy to hear sad news from me!" Marcello let out a strict warning to Sarah who was outside the room.He must have also blamed me for his sudden accident yesterday.I couldn't hear him yell at her and that was because I left the house last time without telling anyone where I was heading to.Although I was mad or angry right now because of his reaction, one thing was for sure.. I had fun where I had sneaked out to.I left the house earlier on to go meet with Elvis. Yes, Elvis ,Marcello's best friend who had visited us earlier on after we got married and later came to take me out.I know he tried making me fall for him but the truth was, I had fun staying with him back then and seeing how rude my husband was to me, I couldn't help but go meet up with him again in his house.I recalled the second he hugged me, the moment he stared at me from his door
