These past few days have been one of the mist difficult days for me since this year started but I'm thankful for everything though. I'm still alive and healthy. Thank you all so much for reading and have a great day ahead!
The men spent a few more unbearable minutes cleaning their hands and dusting down their clothes while Rain stood next to Romeo and watched. “Scared?” Romeo had asked, Rain’s first reaction was to turn away in embarrassment, they had all seen her throw up and definitely make embarrassing faces yet Romeo still looked like nothing of that sort had happened. Luigi had told her that someone would clean it up and she didn’t have to worry but that only made things worse. She wanted to go back to the Cabin and bury her face in a pillow, screaming in a really frustrated manner. “No, I’m not scared” Rain replied, ignoring the fact that her forehead was covered in cold sweat and her legs were still shaking. Alexander called the men that had followed behind them during the drive here, once they were inside, the untied the young man in the seat despite his weak protests like groaning and trying to slap their hands away. Two of the men Alexander called dragged the bleeding man on the ground as
Rain screamed and ducked in fear but Alexander held her up and practically meshed their bodies together. “Stay close, Rain.” That deep voice was suddenly the only thing she could sense as her eyes were closed shut from fear and her legs had turned to jelly. “When I tell you to run—” he pulled her to the side and then finally ducked, taking her with him. She heard the sound of a click and she opened her eyes to see that he had brought out a gun of his own and he was loading it with bullets. The loud gunshots stopped a few seconds later, transporting them back to that eerie silence that unnerved her. Rain wanted to look around to search for Romeo and Luigi, her and Alexander had their backs pressed up against a wall that it’s edges were already crumbling, the bullets that had been rained down on it seemed to add more damage. “—you run straight to the car, understood?” He sounded so calm, so I’m control like countless bullets hadn’t just aimed for their heads. Rain stared at the man
“How does that feel?” Rain moaned as he went in deeper, her fingers dug into his back and his long hair brushing against her face every now and then, tickling her. She had giggled a few times and it made him laugh as well. Her eyes took in his sun kissed skin and those beautiful baby blue eyes that always made her melt aflame with desire. “You’re supposed to be enjoying this,” Cullen said still laughing as he pulled out of Rain and then pushed back in again…her thighs shook from pleasure and sweat mingled between their bodies. “I am,” it came out more as a moan, she pulled him closer and kissed his lips deeply. Fucking cherries! He always tasted like them. “Then why did you kill me?” “What?” Rain blinked and looked up, in a split second that beautiful skin became dull…pale and looked so scary and his eyes…God his eyes looked glazed over, empty. Drip. Drip. Drip. This time it wasn’t sweat from his body, he wasn’t even warm, he was so cold, so damn cold and his body was so hea
Alexander stared into space, lost in thought while trying to ignore Elisa’s annoying pacing at his bedside in the guestroom.Her sneakers squeaked at some point and his lips twitched.“Would you stop that?”It had been four days, four fucking days and the woman has decided that she would pin herself to his side for the rest of eternity. She was worried about him and his health, yes, she didn’t want him to work which was also understandable because Elisa was a woman who didn’t understand how running an empire worked.The second the people who plotted against him realized he was still bedridden, they would see it as an excuse to attack and yes, they would know if he was.He had been avoiding acknowledging that fact because it would change everything for everyone under him and it would change the way he saw the people he considered family. There was a spy among them, a spy that has so skillfully hidden himself or herself and blended in completely and then continued to stay in the sh
Rain’s head hurt. They didn’t let her leave the room. Not until she was ‘Fully recovered’ as both Nicholas and Romeo had said. It had been almost a week since she woke up in this bed and apart from the occasional bathroom breaks she got from the bed and maybe whenever she decided she was tried of laying down and doing nothing, she hadn’t moved from that room. Alexander’s room. It came as a shock to her that he gave his room to her but she also felt a hint—emphasis on ‘hint’—of gratitude towards the man. Yet, Alexander being Alexander hadn’t come to see her even once. Of course she knew he was a busy man but still, she saved his fucking life…and almost died while doing it by the way, she at least deserved a bit of gratitude from the man did she not? Maybe she was just thinking too much about it, maybe she was expecting way too much from him. Rain sighed in exhaustion and looked out the window again. There were trees as high as the windows and she could hear the chirps and compla
His brown eyes stared straight into his father’s, they were fierce, angry as he always was…no, it wasn’t anger, it was disappointment.Alexander knew he would never be enough for his father, he knew that he would never be good enough...But he tried, he tried so fucking hard everyday just to hear one encouragement from the man.“Again!”That one word has pushed him over the edge so many times, literally.Alexander stood under the falling snow, shirtless and a gun in his hand. His entire frame shaking from the cold.He stood in front of fifteen dogs, each chained to individual poles and each of them raised personally by him since he was five years old.Alexander’s thirteen-year-old body shivered and his teeth chattered uncontrollably. He was dripping wet, from head to toe…his brown hair matted to his forehead and he resisted the urge to heave as his stomach felt hollow.This was his fifth try today, the first to fourth ended up with him getting three hard punches to his stomach, his f
One faithful morning, Rain didn’t get a visit from her brother. Elisa had come to the room earlier than she usually did, made sure there was hot water in the bathroom and helped Rain to clean up. Dried her hair with a towel and then just let it fall down her shoulders to her back. Elisa picked out cotton pajamas for her even though it was already morning and Rain didn’t plan on going back to sleep. They were comfy and didn’t rub against Rain’s wounds they way other clothes would’ve. Elisa was looking out for her. How romantic, Rain thought with a faint smile on her face. Elisa had been taking care of her painstakingly ever since she woke up in this room and even before. She helped her change and before she could use her arms properly she helped her bathe. Elisa had been there almost every second of the day when Rain needed her...The thought of it bright tears to her eyes. When was the last time someone had spent their precious time taking care of her this much? Probably before
“Your brother here is going to sign a contract that’s going to make things easier for both of you, aren’t you Nicky?”Nicholas’ eyes were down, he seemed almost ashamed.As he should be.Rain thought to herself.The bastard never once apologized for leaving her, he avoided the topic whenever it was brought up tried to justify everything he did.Typical Nicholas.“What kind of contract?” Rain asked trying hard not to let her disappointment show. Rain recalled her life in Japan before she decided to come to Italy.She always felt alone despite living in the same house with three other girls. She stayed up all night and didn’t rest through the day, she would write…and write and write and her publisher would keep asking for more, keep setting deadlines. The was like a walking corpse, writing about things she wished she could have in her life and then crying after every chapter, depression consumed her and though her friends tried to help, they couldn’t but she made them believe tha
