Chapter 26: Motel
PIETRO
I found nothing. Not even a single nylon tie or a single stray bullet or any thing that doesn’t belong to a warehouse. The whole place is clean. There’s no trace to be found.If there is really a human trafficking business going on in here, it would be impossible to leave the area this perfectly clean. It’s impossible to leave without leaving a single trace.It’s either Calvin lied to me or everything he saw just happened in his dream. As I had thought, there is no way you would conduct a human trafficking business here and hide your captives in a fish warehouse.It’s not a good idea to do so.I don’t know why despite knowing all that, I still chose to stay behind until nighttime. I guess I’m still hoping that the whole place will change at night like some curtain would open and reveal what it’s hiding.I don’t know what I’m hoping for anymore. I’m not sure if I’m just being desperate for Calvin to be right or if it was really just my pure instRelated chapters
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 27: No Hitman
PIETROThrough the peephole, I observed the guy outside making sure that he is not an enemy. With slow and careful fingers, I made sure that the door is locked. I grabbed the door knob tightly, jamming it in just in case he attempts to pull the door open.“Anybody there?” He shouted as he looks for a way to take a look inside my room.My window curtains were close, robbing him of the option to look through my windows. He tries to look inside by peeking at my door’s peephole from the outside. He inched his eye closer to the peephole, giving me a fish view of his face, but he gives up almost immediately. He looks from left to right as he waits for someone in my room to come out and answer him while I waited for him to stop waiting and leave. “I know someone is in there. I just saw you enter your room a few minutes ago,” he adds, thinking that would be enough for me to open up my door for him. My body relaxes a bit from the door as I start to think that maybe I’m the one who is being
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 28: An Ambush
PIETROThe guy soon grew tired from trying to plunge his knife at me. His moves had become terrible and he slipped up with his attack.Because he had turned slow, it was easy for me to grab him by the arm and twist it in front of him.He freezes when I pointed his arm holding the knife to his neck. He wasn’t expecting what I just did. I was just evading and parrying his attacks, he never thought that I would actually try to counter attack him despite the serious injury that I have. Before he could recover from his surprise and move against what I was trying to do to him, I circled my hand around his free arm and locked it behind my back so he wouldn’t be able to reach the wound on my stomach and hit it again. He tried to struggle against me, wiggling off his arms from my tangled hold, but I only tightened my hold around him to stop him from escaping. There’s no way he could escape my hold for I got him completely immobilized. his arms are locked around mine and I am hugging him fro
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 29: Pietro is injured
PIETRO“What?” Pericles asked in surprise. He is already driving in his car when I called him. He sped up his engine when he heard what happened. “Someone attacked me in the motel,” I breathed slowly then winced as I took another look on my stab wound. “I’m losing too much blood.”“Are you still in the motel?” He asked me. My eyelids started to feel heavy and as if he could see me, he shouted “Don’t sleep! Just keep your eyes open.”My eyelids shot open at that. My irises moved, searching for something to focus on. “I-I’m out of the motel.” I answered his question when I was back to being myself again. “I parked at the side of the road.” I turned my head around to check. “I’m the only car parked around the street.”“Okay, don’t end the call. I’m already coming. I’ll tell you when I’m near.”“I already called the cleaners to clean the scene. Hopefully no one has entered in the room yet.” I continued speaking so I wouldn’t fall asleep.We call the people who cleans crime scenes as cle
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 30: Lucrezia doesn’t know Pietro’s injury
LUCREZIAI’m glad that father decided to move my engagement with Pietro tomorrow in such a short notice. Not because I’m so excited to get tied with Pietro in marriage, but because he deserves a big surprise for being an asshole. It doesn’t mean that I wasn’t surprised by my father’s sudden interest in my engagement. In fact, I am still thinking about the reason he had behind his unreasonable decision to move the engagement party tomorrow, even if he can and afford to do so. It isn’t practical to move the engagement party early. In fact, not only will it be a trouble to Pietro, my family and I. It will also be a trouble for our invited guests.I wonder what made him make the decision out of the blue. I doubt that it was just caused by his excitement to have a Carusso as a son-in-law. Perhaps, did he find out something about Pietro that I don’t know about?Was it something very important that it greatly disturbed my father to move our engagement so sooner?
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 31: Engagement Party
LUCREZIAMy engagement party is as grand as father had promised it to be. Despite the fact that we rented the venue at a different date and the caterers were given a short notice to cater for us today, everything looked well thought and well prepared. You couldn’t tell how much effort were done to make this party possible at a very short time. Everything went well as if everyone had enough time for the preparation. My father was very insistent to make this engagement happen today that he made sure that everything would go the way he wanted it to be. Even his guests couldn’t complain. They have to come because it was him who invited them to come. Aside from the whole venue, I also look good in this sweet white dress that covers even the heels of my feet. It touches the grass as I walk and I couldn’t help it but feel like I was Aphrodite strolling at a garden in Mount Olympus.My dress is simple and sweet. It doesn’t cling to my body tight, unlike the usual
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 32: Guilty Suspect
PIETROEyes were on my car when we drove into the venue. I haven’t shown myself yet, but we are already stealing the people’s attention. Who wouldn’t look at the car that I brought. It was the cheapest car that ever drove in to the venue as if we were a joke. When people saw us coming, they stared at us with ridicule then left disinterested. They must have thought that we were just a bunch of nobodies who weren’t informed that rich guys were occupying the area and we aren’t allowed here.They had no idea that the man they were waiting for, the host of the party is inside the vehicle. Pericles and I had no time to change cars. We left in haste and drove directly towards the venue as soon as Pericles had arrived to help me tend with my wounds. We were racing with time that we both never thought we would be so lucky to even arrive at the venue thirty minutes ahead of time.We were just hoping that we will arrive at the venue on time at best, but I guess I shouldn’t have underestimated
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 33: Eros and Raimondo
PIETROI stopped on my tracks when someone placed a hand above my shoulder. I glanced over my shoulder, staring at the hand placed above it. I immediately recognized it as Eros’s hand because of the ring on his finger.I turned around to face him, waiting for him to say something and explain why he had stopped me. Eros stared at me with a childish and playful smile on his face. He removed his hand from my shoulder when he finally caught my full attention.“Congratulations!” He said. His voice sounded so sincere and he doesn’t look like he is hiding any grudges against me.It is as if he wasn’t just planning to marry Lucrezia, before I swept in and ruined his plans, stealing an opportunity from him.I gave him an emotionless look, not fully trusting him. He could just be pretending that everything is still well between us. Behind that facade, he could already be thinking of how he’s going to strike a score with me.He raised the same hand he used to place in my shoulder to offer me a
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 34: Trauma
LUCREZIAI watched as my father talked to Pietro. My grip on my champagne tightened as I observed the exchange between them. Even with this great distance between us, I could tell that father is giving Pietro a hard time. I don’t know if I should feel amuse or if I should feel bad about Pietro. I know how hard my father can be. I inherited that trait from him.Even though Pietro is more powerful than my father, it doesn’t stop him from pushing his buttons. My father loves to poke sticks on sleeping tigers. I sashayed towards them, to put their delightful conversation into a stop. I’m also curious about what they were talking about even though I know that they wouldn’t let me into their conversation.I slowed down when I have arrived at enough distance towards them. I was planning to hear some of their conversation, but I already arrived too late.The two is now done talking and they are having a staring contest instead. I could even feel the tension between them from this distance.
