Hi everyone, Dang! After reading this I am craving a pizza too! What do think of their second date? Comment and let me know. Lots of Love❤️
Anaya I rearranged the couch for my comfort while Nicolas walked down to the bedroom. I could see outside through the window. The rain was pouring down, causing a rumbling in the valley. The eerie silence surrounding me made me queasy. I was not new to silence, but this was something else. Right now, I’m surrounded by darkness and silence. I’m not scared of darkness, but this is horrible. There was no light at all. We were in a cottage located in a dark, dense forest valley. I can’t even drive if I wanted to. Nicolas was the only one who could help me. Now I regret not taking him up on his offer to sleep on the bed. If I had taken the bed, I could have at least locked the bedroom door. I’m not sure what held me back, since I know Nicolas would never touch me if I didn’t want him to. Although I have accepted that I have a massive crush on him, I am not sure what keeps me from accepting him into my life. I sighed and wrapped the blanket tightly around myself. It is freezing here, but
Nicolas I frown, seeing Anaya’s smile drop while clutching her phone tight. “Is everything all right, kitten?” I asked. Her head snapped, “Y-yeah it is. I will see you soon, Nicolas.” “Anaya, I hate liars,” I said, struggling to contain my rage. She is lying. “You’ll be my wife, and you should know that I don’t put up with liars. Am I understood?” “It’s nothing really,” she stiffened, “but today is my adopted mother’s birthday.” A small sigh escaped my lips, and Anaya’s sorrowful gaze met mine. Despite not being sure what I could do in the situation, I squeezed her hand and said, “I am here for you.” “Anything more?” I asked. She pursed her lips. “No,” she replied. I had to put in more effort to win her trust, given that I knew she wasn’t being truthful. Also, I will respect her space as she has respected mine. If something big was amiss, she would tell me, I am sure. “See you soon,” I said, smiling. She wrenched the car door open and proceeded to her house. I waited till she
Anaya A week has passed since Nicolas and I visited his cabin. After that, he took a flight to Spain and hasn’t been back since. He texted to let me know he was leaving Italy for a week and that I should exercise caution till he gets back. I smiled as soon as I finished reading his text since it was such a wonderful gesture. I must confess that I am missing his presence. I miss his irritating smirks, his relentless mocking, and his attractive face. His absence reminded me of how much he had influenced my life. During the previous week, he sent me a message once or twice, but it was insufficient. However, I know he is a very busy man. Aside from that, I don’t want to hear any gory details about his organization. I sighed as I strolled through my father’s library, running my hands over the hardback old volumes. I’ve never seen a library as large as the one he owned. I adore reading and the beauty of literature, so spending time in the library provides me with some stability. Books hav
Nicolas I groaned. Finally, I’ll be back home tonight. This entire week was chaotic. I was savoring the stunning view of the city from the balcony of my apartment in Porto, Portugal. I smiled while sipping my wine. It’s no surprise that this city is famed for its wine. Such exquisite taste. I hoped Anaya would try this. As for Anaya, I sent her a text letting her know I will be returning. She didn’t respond, though. Suddenly, a knock distracted me from my thoughts. An athletic, tanned woman entered the room. She chewed her lip seductively. “Mr. Ricci, your security has notified you the jet is ready.” I turned away from her sultry look and nodded. “Inform him I will be down in a minute.” My reply left her in a state of shock. Normally I would have fucked her brains out, but since I had spent some time with my kitten, I compared them with her. I decided I had better get a handle on the problem because it has already confused my thinking. Anyhow, when I am married to her, I have to qu
Anaya Nicolas held on for dear life. He had me nearly glued to his side. The strange tingling in my belly returned. His actions have left me perplexed as well as blushing. My father grinned as he sat in front of us. “I’m content now,” my father grinned. Nicolas and I both found his words to be confusing. “What do you mean, Papa?” I asked. “The way Ricci reacted just because you did not answer his phone call persuaded me that I selected the ideal man for my daughter,” dad remarked proudly. “He will keep you safe.” “Rest assured, Viler, I will always protect Anaya no matter what,” Nicolas declared. “My wife deserves that.” My father reminded him that “She is not your wife yet, Ricci.” I can see that he was pulling Nicolas’s chain since he knew how much Nicolas detested being called out. His jaw tightened. “We will rectify that soon. We will marry as soon as Anaya is ready.” “Hmm... amid the ruckus you created, Ricci, I forgot Anaya was talking about something important to me,” fa
Nicolas As the light filled my room, I groggily got up. After my conversation with Viler regarding his bringing Anaya to the ball, it was tough for me to fall asleep. The entire night, I tossed and turned. The nightmares did not make the already uneasy sleep any better. I had only gotten three hours of sleep. But I am accustomed to such low hours of sleep. I looked at my alarm and saw that it was six in the morning, the ideal time for a workout. I used the restroom to take care of business before rushing to the gym. I exercised and boxed with one of our guys. Sparing gives me an adrenaline rush. Since I have an early meeting, I had to end the session early. I was soon ready to head to the office. I walked into the dining area for a quick breakfast. Where I was met with an almost zombie-looking sister who was grumbling because I woke her up early in the morning. She was to accompany Anaya for some shopping. I shouted, “Breakfast, Nina!” Nine is our cook who rushed to the kitchen to
Anaya “Now that we’re alone,” Lucia remarked, wriggling her brows. “What’s going on between you and my older brother? Tell me everything.” “Nothing is going on,” I answered, attempting to cover my blush from Nicolas’ whispers in my ear. She snorted, “I won’t be fooled, so please stop. One thing you should know about me is that I find out anything I want to know. Sherlock Holmes is nothing compared to me!” I pursed my lips as I tried to come up with a way to get her to stop asking questions. “I believe we should get going.” “Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Anaya, we need to work on your lying skills or you will be slaughtered out here,” she chuckled. “I don’t have to lie. In any case, Nicolas doesn’t like liars,” I said. “Oh, so if Nicolas doesn’t like something, you won’t do it,” she sang. “Lucia, stop teasing me, please,” I groaned. She chuckled. Both brother and sister have too much fun on my account. “Cia. Call me Cia,” she smiled. “You will be my sister-in-law. Therefore, no formalities.”
Nicolas Adrian answered, “I deciphered the file and discovered a few random places. I have mapped them out for you and sent the information to you on our secure server.” I said, “Good work,” and then I ended the conversation. “Ben, I want everything you can find in that file.” “Yes boss,” he replied. “I’m in my office. I have some plane footage to work on now. And bring me the locations that Adrian has sent,” I replied. He nodded and walked out of my office. I sighed and sat down in my seat. After a little while, Ben handed me the location information and sat on the couch with his papers. It has been a while since Anaya and Lucia have been shopping. I hope things are working well between them. I did not want to disturb them so I concentrated on my work trying to find a connection between the locations. But I came up empty-handed. They spread the locations all around the world. I think we have to send someone to every location so that we can have a better understanding of their ex
