Chapter 67: Arianna's POVMy room was filled with flowers from Gabriele. He had suspended every activity and took care of my every need. Last night, Agostino had to push him out of my ward, so he could get proper sleep.He had been nothing but sweet to me. I knew it was too late now. I had fallen completely in love with him.When Brett had come to visit a few weeks ago after I regained consciousness, I couldn't speak with him for long. He wanted to probe me and ask me about the relationship I shared with Gabriele but I couldn't speak with him.I felt uncomfortable talking about Gabriele with someone he wasn't on good terms with. I told him politely, not to come and visit me anymore.He was obviously hurt by my words but he was a good friend. In the end, he respected my decision and left promising to keep in touch somehow.I felt bad that we had to put a boundary to our friendship but Gabriele wasn't happy about his presence in my life. He didn't say it but I knew Gabriele suspected Br
Chapter 68: Gabriele's POVArianna had ways of just bringing up demands without giving as much as a warning. We were headed home from the hospital and suddenly she blurted out a new demand."Babe I know you are concerned about me and I won't even argue if you say you want to assign me with guards and security and everything... But I can't stay indoors all the time again, please. I need to be out and receive fresh air..." She insisted before I could respond.I wasn't comfortable with this idea of hers. I would readily give her the entire world if I could but her safety was out of the question. I couldn't jeopardize that."Arianna, my love," I cajoled as I brushed my fingers along her chin."It isn't safe out there...""But Gabriel you are no longer doing mafia stuff, why isn't it safe?" She argued.She had a point there. My casinos and other businesses I have decided to focus on were very much legal but I still had a problem with Gianni. What if he decided to harm her?"Arianna, I will
Chapter 69: Arianna's POVA week later, Gabriele led me to the newly opened business consulting firm just a couple of blocks from the house."All workers here have been screened. You have nothing to worry about," He assured me as he dropped me off himself that morning.I kissed him on the lip and carried my laptop bag as I stepped out of the vehicle. "Thank you so much, Gabriele, I will make you proud!" I said like a child that was going to school for the first time."Get ready by four in the evening, I will come to pick you up. Remember we have our movie night?" He asked and I nodded.Of course, I remembered. I have been anticipating the first movie night ever since we moved into the new house."Yes, babe. Bye!" I said waving at him as I watched his blue Ferrari drive away from the building.As I walked into the building, I couldn't help but smile at how happy my life had become. I had Gabriele all to myself. He had really kept his promise. Nadia and Eleana were somewhere in Naples.
Chapter 70: Arianna's POVMy heart was racing as the beads of sweat formed and dropped from my face. My toes were shaking as the adrenaline pushed through my veins.I shook off my fingers, waking them from the sleep they were starting to go into. The attack could come at any moment and it would be bad.I had to be ready.From the corner of my eyes, I saw movements and at the last second, I moved and threw a punch in the opposite direction with as much force as I could."Huh!" I grunted as my fist hit the padded glove. The resistance that came through was enough to send me howling to the floor but I stood my ground and threw another punch, hoping to get to his face but he held my hand."You need to feel the enemies' aura and detect from which angle they will be attacking... Good job Arianna!"Agostino said and patted my shoulder with his ungloved hand.I dropped to the floor in a heap of sweat and let my breathing regain its original tempo."I need water!" I cried out.Training with Ag
Chapter 71: Arianna's POV"Angelo—" Agostino started to say but Gabriele raised his hand and stopped him."No, I am not letting her roam around with some people! It won't happen!" He said and moved to sit on his chair.The maids spurted to action and started serving the meal on the long table.I remained by the door with Agostino and we exchanged looks. What was wrong with Gabriele? Why was he making this more difficult than it should be?"What should I do now?" I whispered to him below the soft noises created by the maids as they moved about with the plates."I think at this point, you both need to compromise," Agostino mouthed back to me."Compromise?" I cried out in a low voice. I knew what Gabriele wanted. He wanted me to move around the city with a horde of security like I was married to a dictator. There was no way I would go to a party with my friends for a drink and show up with a band of macho men!"That can't work Agostino. I can take care of myself. You saw it yourself toda
Chapter 72: Arianna's POVThe moment Agostino finished scolding us and left, Gabriele locked himself in his office and I returned to the room.Sofie and Mike gave me thumbs up but I didn't feel like it. I should have been happy.I won but I didn't feel so confident about it anymore.I got to the room and pushed the door close with my leg. I peeled off the clothes I wore and picked out his large white shirt. I wore it and dropped it on the bed unceremoniously.Why couldn't he just come to the room? I thought to myself.We could make out and make up. He didn't have to be so sad about the idea of me going to spend time with my friends. It wasn't necessary.It was just a simple outing and he didn't have to act like some jealous boyfriend. I loved him and no one else. Didn't he know that?Did I have to remind him?I tossed around the bed, as the questions rolled and flowed out of me.The lights went off automatically drowning me in darkness. I closed my eyes and tried to get some sleep but
Chapter 73: Arianna's POV"Arianna you don't understand! Gabriele has you rolled up around his fingers, I am only trying to help here. You don't love him... You don't mean that..." He said desperately.At this point I was no longer angry, I just watched him calmly. He needed help."I am sorry Brett but you have it all wrong and I will really appreciate it if you stop. It isn't worth it," I said slowly.His eyes darkened and he raised his fists in the air. I just watched him —he couldn't touch me because Mike would gnaw off his head before he got any closer."Arianna, this is terrible. You are a captive yet you defend your captor? Let me help you!" He insisted.I realized that he wasn't going to stop and I did t have time for this. I held on tight to my purse and let out a deep breath."As I said earlier, you can't understand Brett. Anyway, you have taken enough of my time. Enjoy the breakfast," I said and made for the door but on second thoughts, I paused."One more thing Brett," I sa
Chapter 74: Gabriele's POVMy cock was aching to bury itself inside Arianna's soft folds. I grabbed her thighs and tore through the left material of her dress."Gabriele, we are in the car!" She shrieked beneath me.The sound of her voice was sizzling and my cock ached even more. I pulled her neck to the right angle and claimed her lips before she could say another thing.She moaned against my mouth as I pulled my belt off my waist and released my cock between her thighs.I pulled her closer so that she now lay flat on the seat and I went on top of her. It was a good thing the car was big enough for the stunts I was pulling."Shit!" I cursed as I missed her entrance.Then like a dream, I felt her hand on my cock as she led me to her entrance. A grin covered my face as I let her continue."Naughty..." I whispered as I thrust deep inside of her."Hmmm," She moaned into my neck as I drove hard into her.My eyes rolled back and my veins popped as I held her waist and continued ramming int
