DREIDAN'S POV
I started walking away from her. I needed to be far away from her. I needed to think and think really hard. I didn't understand why I felt this huge knot in my chest. It felt like I was letting my guards down. Why did it seem like she was replacing my princess? She fucking reminded me a lot about Nevaeh. So beautiful, so naive, so stubborn, always had the courage to talk back at me, rolled her eyes when I said something she wasn't okay with and she even stuck her tongue out at me. But most especially, she had a heart of gold, just like Nevaeh. It was scary how both had a lot of similar traits. Blondes, blue eyes, plump lips, big boobs, wide hips,a big butt, so short and every other thing. Why did it feel like she was reliving my Nevaeh.
You can't let that happen Dre, your heart belongs to Nevaeh and her only. Dead or alive. Don't let this girl come in. She's not good for you.
AVATIA'S POVI tiptoed to the door and tried to listen to what he was saying. Luck was not on my side since he spoke in another language, I think Russian or something, cause it didn't sound like Italian. He nodded at what the person on the phone was saying, his hold on that penknife increasing. He finally said something in English. "Don't kill him, I'll love to do the honours myself. I'll be there in forty-five minutes."I closed my mouth with my hands trying not to gasp. What in the world was wrong with this guy? He killed people as if it meant nothing.My breath hitched when he turned to me. "I'm not done with you yet. Don't even thinking of running away, else you forget about your mom." He said in an angry voice and walked towards his room, to prepare for his mission, I presume.After sometime, he walked back do
AVATIA'S POV"You're kidding me. Tell me you're joking." Ana squealed in excitement as I told her about last night.I shook my head, a proud smirk forming. "He said THANK YOU. For real. I thought I wasn't hearing well but he repeated it again Ana. I'm serious."Her eyes grew wide. "You're telling me that the same Dreidan that I know, leader of the mafia here in Italy and the United States of America, told you thank you? Hell no! I can't believe that. The last time I heard such words was about five years ago."I laughed. Her expression was priceless. "Believe it or not. He said it."All of a sudden she frowned a little."What's wrong?"She turned back to the casserole she was making. "I just feel bad that you'll soon be leaving. This house would be lonely once more."I frowned too. She was
AVATIA'S POVI didn't leave my room. I cried and cried and cried. That man was really a psycho. Yesterday, I was glad that he was making progress then he just had to drop the bomb. How on earth was I supposed to seduce a 65 years old dangerous man? Italian for that matter. What if he tried to kiss me or more? I was gonna puke for sure. I closed my eyes and tried to sleep off my pain. I think I slept for about two hours or so till I felt someone shake me. I opened my eyes to see Ana giving me a sad smile."Its about time Ava." She said sadly and sat on the bed, near to me, smoothing my hair.I hesitantly sat up, looking at the other side of the room. I didn't want to look at her cause I would start crying. "I don't want to go Ana. I really don't want to.""Shhh. I know you don't and I don't want y
AVATIA'S POVI sat quietly trying to calm my nerves by enjoying the view of the limo. It was so nice. Just like the jet. Classic and rich. I took out a bottle of water from the mini fridge and drank in order to ease my nerves but nothing seemed to work. I felt like crying. I had been sitting in here for about thirty minutes. The worst part of all this was that I didn't even have my phone. I could at least play some subway surf to distract me from over thinking. A few more minutes later, I felt the car pull to a stop and then my door was opened. I gulped and prayed silently before stepping out. The area was full of expensive cars and men and women who looked rich. I felt like the youngest in the place until I spotted a group of really young girls in bras and shorts. Out of nowhere, I heard his voice and almost jumped
AVATIA'S POVI slowly peeked one eye open, then the other. I couldn't sit upright. My neck hurt so much. Memories of last night flashed in my mind. I started panicking. Where am I? I noticed that someone was sitting on the bed I was lying on. Probably Mr. De Luca. Oh my, I hurriedly sat up and relief washed over me when I realized I was in my room. Good grief. I looked to my right and saw him staring at me. He usually had an unreadable expression but what I saw in his eyes, was pure sadness and regret. How did I get out of that place alive? How did he save me with a broken arm? I looked at his arm and realized he'd taken the bandage off. Stubborn guy. But that was the least of my worries. My neck hurt so much. Three days ago, he strangled me and just last evening, that Russian monster did the same. What was up with this mafia men and my
AVATIA'S POVHave you ever seen someone in so much pain that it causes you to be in pain too? Have you ever seen the strongest person you know, break down right before you? Have you ever seen someone become so vulnerable that it breaks your own heart?Looking at my boss shed tears in front of me triggered my own emotions and I soon found myself crying too. I didn't know how to console him cause I've never been in such a situation."Avatia she was the only friend I had back in New York. She made me do things I wasn't used to doing. She made me pray, she made me go to orphanages, she made me eat food from moving trucks, she taught me to see the good in people. She did all these without even knowing who I truly was." He said as he wiped his eyes and ran his fingers over the beautiful portrait. "I really don't know how it happened but I found myself feeling strange things for her. I did
AVATIA'S POVButterflies fluttered at the pit of my belly. It was like the fireworks on the fourth of July! In fact, scratch that. The feeling of his lips on mine was just indescribable. I was in a state of elated bliss. At first, I thought it was my mind playing tricks until he gently pulled on my lower lip. The feel of his soft, warm lips as they worked on mine sent sweet shivers down my spine and a new feeling in between my legs. I don't know how or when it happened but I felt his tongue fighting for dominance in my mouth. This is so wrong, my mind was screaming, but I couldn't pull back because it felt so right and even if it was wrong, I just still couldn't bare to pull back. It was like he'd cast a spell on me. His lips and tongue worked magic on mine, almost like he was making love to my mouth. Ahhh. Mmhmm.Stop Avatia, remember he said he hopes its not his heart doing the thinki
AVATIA'S POVAna could barely contain her excitement. She was doing her happy dance while cooking. I laughed at her cuteness. I told her that during her absence, Mr. Black and I decided to become friends. I told her everything, except for the kissing part, of course."Really, he said you guys could be friends? Unbelievable." She said and giggled like a little girl. I understood perfectly why she was acting that way. Our boss was always so reserved and was the most anti-social person I've met in my entire life.I nodded. "You better believe it girl. As a matter of fact, we're going out today. We'll just go round the city for a start. I have no place in mind yet, but one thing's for sure, he has got to take me round Italy throughout this week. That said, I should hurry off and go prepare for my outing with my super hot boss." I said and we both burst out laughing. Wherever I was gett
