Chapter 37Alessia’s POVTwo weeks!Two weeks without food, a shower, and the dancing and laughter of Stefano and Samuele. Luca's teasing and even Ciro's scary attitude. The girls, I have come close to each one of them in such a short period. Clarissa, Elma, and Markus are teasing Johnny and me. Johnny, oh, how I miss him, our small talks, and the looks we shared.I had managed to pull myself off the floor; it did take a lot of energy to do so. I stood on weak, wobbly legs, my left arm holding me up against the wall. I looked up and saw the small window. I don't know how I managed to reach it, but I smashed the window with my fists until it broke. I breathe in the little fresh air that came in when my legs gave out, and I fall on the cold floor. I looked down and noticed the glass piece. I picked it up thinking I could just kill myself now instead of them torturing me to death. I'm sure Johnny and the others will understand.Carmela walked into the room with a cruel grin on her face."

Chapter 38Alessia’s POV"Johnny!" I called out as he started to walk away from me."Please don't leave me," I sobbed. "I don't have anyone else." "He won't save you this time, he saw the monster you were when you killed your sister, now I'm going to kill you and throw you in a ditch like the piece of trash you are", I feel my father whisper in my ears and a sting on my back when I look down a knife sticks out in front of me."No!" I bolted up in a sitting position on my bed."Alessia!" Johnny said running in."Are you alright?" He asked, concern clear in his eyes. Tears started rolling down my cheeks when he pulled me into his chest immediately, holding me so close that he was afraid I would disappear.My eyes went wide, and I felt tensed for a second, but I relaxed into his embrace, breathing in his scent and taking in his warmth. My heartbeats rapidly in my chest, I think it would explode any minute now.It wasn't long before I let myself go, feeling safe in his arms. I let out

Chapter 39Johnny’s POVI looked at her, closing her eyes. It's painful seeing her like this; I can't imagine the pain she felt. Why would anyone want to hurt an innocent girl like her? I caress her cheeks softly. It's still bruised, and her eyes are swollen from hours of crying.I stand up and walk out, wanting to kill that bastard. I walked to my office and noticed my whole gang there."Thank you for what you did; thank you all for bringing her back safely," I said, looking at everyone."How is she?" Stefano asked, concern clear in his eyes."She's sleeping now, but she's scared that Lorenzo will come back to take revenge for his daughters' deaths." I see him clenching his jaw and Samuele dropping his head.I remember the moment I walked in and saw the man about to rape her. I saw the bruises all over her delicate body. I wanted to kill that bastard for touching her and I did. I see. How could I let this happen? I thought if she's with the others, she will be alright; I shouldn't ha

Chapter 40Alessia’s POVWhen I woke up, I could no longer feel Johnny's warm embrace. For some reason, it made me feel lonely.I didn't want to get out of bed knowing my father was still out there looking for me, so I sank deeper into my bed, breathing in Johnny's scent that still lingers on the sheets.A blush forms on my face as I remember his warm embrace, his stroking my hair, and his kissing my forehead. A deep pit formed in my stomach as I thought that this was just one-sided. I don't think he will ever fall for someone like me. I mean, look at me; I'm broken inside and out. Who would want a girl like me? The door opened, and I snapped my eyes open, and the girls slipped inside, closing the door. They ran to me and jumped on the bed. I smiled at them, thankful that I had them as my friends."Hello, girls," I said as they made themselves comfortable on my bed."Elma said you were still in bed, so we thought to check up on you," Bella said with a frown."What's with that frown,

Chapter 41Alessia’s POVI opened my eyes, deciding to take a hot bath. I stand up and put the robe on, looking at my bruises and the scars on my body. Why would Johnny want a broken girl like me?Sighing, I walked out of the indoor pool area, and just as I wanted to pass the living room, I noticed everyone in there sipping what looked like hot chocolate.My eyes landed on the girl. Good fuck, she's beautiful. Long black hair, curves in all the right places, deep blue eyes, and tanned skin. She wore a black crop top, showing off her six-pack, tight skinny jeans, and high-heeled boots. I noticed her staring daggers at me as soon as Bella shouted my name."Alessia!" She ran towards me, hugging me."Thank God you are here. I'm close to killing this bitch."Alessia, darling, this is one of our members, Cindy, and Cindy, this is Alessia," Camilla introduced us.She smiled tightly at me and waved. I didn't like her at all, but I, being the nice person I am, waved back. Now, see, that wasn't

Chapter 42 Alessia’s POV "The food is overcooked! Look at the chicken. I thought you could cook, Cindy," Markus said across the table, not looking impressed at all. "It's not my fault Johnny wasn't there to cook with me like we planned this afternoon," Cindy said in a harsh tone, looking at me. What the hell do I have to do with her not being able to even roast a chicken properly? I avoided Johnny's gaze because I knew if I looked up, I would blush again. "Let's just eat; I think all of us had a busy day," Ciro said, smirking at me, and I couldn't keep my face from going red. I so want to slap that smirk off his face, dammit! Johnny and Ciro were busy talking. Clarissa talked to Elma and Markus, while the girls talked to Stefano and Samuele. I stood up and said, "Excuse me, I'm going to turn in." "Of course, dear, you should go and take a rest," Elma said, concerned. I took my dish and put it in the dishwasher before heading up to my room. I was just about to close the do

Chapter 43Johnny’s POVI lay in my bed, restless and half regretting my decision to push Alessia away. I know it's better for both of us. But thinking of her and another man together makes me jealous.I groaned loudly to get rid of my frustration. Fuck, I can't even imagine her with someone else.It was one of the hardest decisions I had made so far, but I had to. I just hope she understands. I can still see the hurt in her eyes when I said that to her.A knock on the door pulled me out of my intense thinking."Come in.”The door opened, revealing my mother."Hello, son," she said, smiling brightly. "I heard about you and Alessia; now tell me, do I hear wedding bells soon?" I feel like a complete and utter arsehole for taking that happy face away from her.“No, mom, I told her we couldn't be anything.""You what!"I looked down after the bright smile was replaced by shock and anger.My mother suddenly exploded into a fit of vehement cursing. I won’t even repeat it; fuck, I forgot how

Chapter 44Alessia’s POV"Whoo! This is life! I have never done this, guys. Whoo!"They shook their heads at me while I took another shot.We are at an exclusive bar that one of Johnny's friends owns. I still can't believe that he let us out. I just want to forget about everything, especially the way he ended things before we even started."Come on, girls, don't kill my mood. Let's go before the music changes.""Haist, fine," Bella said, drinking the remaining content of her glass before letting me drag her to the dance floor.By the time we reached the middle, I had started screaming again."Whoo! If I knew going to the bar would feel like this, I would have done it ages ago! I would have also avoided meeting Johnny!"The girls only laughed at me, but I could see the concern in their eyes. They know I have fallen hard for Johnny and that his breaking it off made me cry. I kept on dancing and swaying to the fast, piercing rhythm of the music that filled the air, bringing out the dance
