~Adriana’s POV~A wild cry wracked my entire body as I stumbled into my room and threw myself on the cold floor dejectedly. Massimo had embarrassed me in the worst way possible and now I felt used, betrayed and dirty… and above all, I felt like a piece of trash. An old dirty trash sack to be used by the uncaring likes of Massimo and then dumped into a dumpster like I didn’t and never meant shit.I wanted to curse at him, to yell out profanities but I held my tongue in despair because I knew that no matter the amount of curses I rained on the monster, there was absolutely nothing I could do to change him. He was an animal, a beast who didn’t give a damn… moreover, I would only get myself in more trouble by doing so and the idea of getting punished again by him, the way I’d been earlier disgusted me. I couldn’t go through that for a second time.I cried for a long time, stopping to remember how he had easily discarded me at intervals and wondering how long I would have to endure this
~Massimo’s POV~“Hey, what the fuck is wrong with you?! How long do you intend to starve yourself just to prove a point?!” Michael yelled in face and I flinched backwards as some of his spittle flew out of his mouth and landed right on my face!Naturally, I would’ve been irritated by that action and in a lot of cases, I might even be forced to even snap back but today was different. Today I felt different and I did so because of Adriana.I didn’t even have it in me to talk or to eat, not to talk about complaining because a few drops of someone’s saliva had landed right in my face. I shook my head.“When was the last time you even shaved… or ate reasonably ever since she’s been at the hospital?” He pressed on and I frowned as I also couldn’t remember the last time I enjoyed such luxuries.He was right, I hadn’t been able to take care of myself ever since she was hospitalized but I didn’t care. I couldn’t bring myself to even think about caring about such luxuries especially after every
~Adriana’s POV~Today was full of surprises but the guest surprise I got was Massimo, giving me his ATM card and asking me to go out shopping with it.I looked up at his intimidatingly huge body frame in shock and wondered if this was his way of trying to bribe me into forgiving all his wrongdoings, the way he always did but I kept my opinion to myself.“Take it!” He pressed on, literally shoving the card in my face and again I raised my head to look at him. I wanted to yell at him to leave my room but I was too weak to. In fact, it was strange to imagine that he would even think I’ll go to this stupid shopping in this frail state of mine. My slitted wrists were still wrapped up in bandages and even my vision was still blurry in a way. I couldn’t argue with this mule.“The doctor says you need a breath of fresh air and some good scenery… he thinks it’ll help you heal faster,” He tried again but despite his flimsy excuses, I stared pointedly at him without making any move to take the
~Adriana’s POV~The ride was a quiet one and due to the fact that some psycho had suddenly decided that he wanted sex, I literally had to limp out of the car into the large Chanel store that I’ve been eyeing for the past ten months because of how sore my body was.My body ached tremendously, especially around my inner thighs and midriff and I cursed loudly at the mad man that had inflicted me with this pain this hot afternoon… not that I really minded.“I’ll wait right here for you ma’am,” the driver said to me as he opened the door for me to pass through and I nodded with a smile on my face.I quickly thanked him for being a gentleman and before he would decide to have a change of heart, I quickly hopped out of the car, walking as fast as my legs could carry me into the large store.The idea of shopping alone and not being watched by some scary looking bodyguard filled me with a kind of sweet feeling that I basked in as I stepped into the large space. It was beautiful, just as I had
~Adriana’s POV~“This is crazy! You didn’t see me steal anything, did you?” I snapped at the counter clerk who only eyed me and then proceeded to punch aggressively on the keyboard of her telephone as if I didn’t just ask a question.Her nonchalant attitude annoyed me but what pissed me off the most was the fact that she was doing all these without a care in the world.“Apprehend her!” She yelled again and this time a few men dressed in security uniforms casually walked up to me. One of them had the audacity to grasp my arm in a firm grip while the other pointed to the door, saying;“Madam, please you’d have to follow us right now.”My anger immediately flared, and in a fit of rage, I aggressively pulled my arm out of the idiot’s grip and then turned to look at the one who seemed like he was the leader right in the eye.“Can I lend your phone? I need to call my lawyer,” I asked and as soon as I said those words, the counter clerk snorted.“She can afford to buy a few clothes worth ov
~Adriana’s POV~“Are you all suddenly deaf?!” Massimo growled angrily. “Why isn’t anyone saying anything? What the fuck is happening here?!”At the sound of his voice, I immediately tried to rush over to him, to explain what was happening but as soon as I made a move to step towards him, one of the irritating security men grabbed at my upper arm violently. I winced.“Let go of her,” Massimo drawled but from the look on his face, it was evident that he was about to send a bullet flying through the man’s skull. I took a step backwards.The counter clerk who was obviously drooling at Massimo right now took a step forward, smiled sweetly at him and then in a small voice said; “Good day sir, please do not mind the ruckus. We only caught an adamant thief and we’re all waiting for her lawyer, but that shouldn’t affect your shopping, should it?”I saw Massimo’s eyes narrow at the stupid lady and without looking away from her, he asked; “It shouldn’t affect my shopping?” He asked and she nodde
~Adriana’s POV~“How come you always get into a lot of trouble?” Massimo asked as soon as we stepped into the house and I smiled smugly at him before replying with a cocky;“Because I’m so hot… I’m naturally attractive to a lot of things that should put me into trouble.”“You aren’t as hot as you think you are,” He replied jokingly but I didn’t care if it was a joke or not and shook my head vehemently before replying;“I’m so hot… at least hot enough that you had to forcefully keep me here when you could’ve just collected the money I stole from you.” I replied cheekily, laughing when I saw his eyes widen at my utterance.He chuckled, whilst shaking his head and without a word, he strutted into the house without sparing a glance backwards. I sighed, shaking my head dejectedly at the thought of the shopping gone bad.A figure in the distance caught my attention and when I squinted to see who it was, my mood fell when I saw that it was no other person but the treacherous Jamie.She was
~Adriana’s POV~That night, I stripped and I danced. I danced for hours non stop until my thighs and legs began to throb painfully. I still do not know how Massimo had been able to throw crazy Jamie out of the house but as soon as he walked back into the house, the first thing he asked for was a dance… and that was exactly what I gave to him, without complaining.‘I kissed a girlI’ by Katy Perry blasted through the speakers and I danced to it just the way I would while I still worked at the club and was proud when I saw the satisfied grin plastered across Massimo’s handsome face. My skin was slick with sweat and it was so bad that it made it quite difficult for me to cling on to the pole but that did not stop me. Instead it only fueled me even more.I glided down the pole and as I got to the floor, I spread my thighs apart to give Massimo a clear view of what he was missing and when he saw me do this, he gulped.The fact that I had this much hold on him made me glad in a way and I s
