Chapter: Chapter 31Foodsteps and loud chattering got closer to the kitchen. The guys were home and just in time. The oven timer went off indicating the lasagna was done. I had to make two batches because they are men and they eat ALOT. Opening the oven door I bend over to take the first one out and place it on the cutting board. Looking up, I was met with six pairs of eyes staring at me.“It smells amazing, Aaliyah.” Lorenzo said walking closer to the island where the lasagna was placed.“Thank you but can one of you go get Elena, dinners ready.” I asked bending down, taking the other one out of the oven. “Oh and can one of you take these to the dining room, please.” I asked, taking off the oven mitts. Turning on my heels I opened a cabinet door , standing on my tippy toes to get out the plates that were on the top shelf.“I will cut your fingers off and feed them to you ,if you don’t get them away from the lasagna.” I said, turning my head around , staring at Lorenzo who was halfway pointing his fin

Chapter: Chapter 30Stretching myself out I let out a yawn from the nap I had. Nap I didn’t know I needed. Lifting myself from the bed I looked to the side seeing the sun was going down already, I realised I slept the whole day basically. After cutting Liam’s hair , he asked if he could sit with us at the pool and so I didn’t have a problem with that so I said yes and today made me learn more about Liam and brought us closer together. We talked about everything and I mean everything. He opened up and it made me realise that Liam was fun to be around. He was like a best friend, a gay best friend and I always thought about how it would be to have a gay friend. I only read about having one in the books but now I know, it’s fucking awsome. He made me laugh, me off all people. From laughing so much my stomach would hurt and I would end up crying .The things he told me and asked about I never thought I would ever discuss with a man.From being out in the sun for so long it made me tired and Neveah tired he

Chapter: Chapter 29I woke up about 30 minutes ago, if I’m sure because I don’t remember how long I laid here without opening my eyes pretending to be asleep for god knows why. I laid on my stomach so when I woke up I had my hair on my face but then I got that scent , his scent.Don’t know how long I was laying like that because this man made no move to leave. So after about 10 minutes I think, he walked closer to the side I was asleep and moved the hair out of my face. The slight fluttering of his fingers on my skin made my eyes twitch and my cover was blown. I wasn’t ready to face him after last night's altercation, not after what almost happened in that shower.He walked away after a few seconds of staring at me. I heard the bedroom door open ,close and I flew out of that .Getting tangled in the sheets, I fell off the bed. Letting out a groan I laid on the floor with my eyes closed, letting out a groan. Opening my eyes, I thought I was seeing, thought I had a concussion maybe because of what was placed

Chapter: Chapter 28Now I need to clean up again. “You okay dear.” Miss Elen yelled from the living room when I walked past so fast not wanting her to see the state of me. “Yes.” I yelled back walking up the stairs on my way to my room to get under the shower and get rid of the blood. I had a metallic smell on me and I just wanted to get the smell of me. Opening my bedroom door something felt off. Another presence was in the room. Closing the door behind me I made my way over to the crib to check up on Neveah and she was still fast asleep. I had blood on my hands so I didn’t want to touch her. The curtains were still open , so the moonlight shined into my bedroom but there was a certain spot in the corner where it was dark. “You can come out whoever it is, I don’t have time for games or whatever you are trying to do.” I said leaning over the crib staring at my baby who was sleeping with her mouth open, so adorable not bothering to turn around and see the culprit. I turned around after a while and

Chapter: Chapter 27Seeing her around Liam everyday, dressed in those boody shorts and sport bras, having no problem being dressed like that in front of him. He is a man for god sakes, what thoughts hasn’t he had about her. And just the thought of that makes my blood boil makes me want to throw her over my shoulder and take her to my room and lock her up away from everyone and have her all to myself.“You really think this is a good idea dear brother.”Matteo asked, laying across the couch.“Shut up Matteo, I want to see what happens.” Lusiano said, waving him off.I heard whispers around the house that Liam and Aaliyah are how can I say this that doesn’t sound possessive, too close for my liking. The best way I could say it. My soon to be baby girl Nevaeh is comfortable around him, she would smile and laugh at him and she is supposed to do that with me and me only and no one else. It was easy to get the women around here to do something for me, so I used that to get them to do something for me and in r

Chapter: Chapter 26So I came to find out that the man is out for my blood. Not him fiscally but the woman working for him. How do I know this you ask because I have been getting these weird glares around every corner I pass and one of the women told me and I quote “ Mr.De Luca told the woman that they are to do what they want as long as he doesn’t see it. He said that they can do whatever they want to you because you won’t do anything. ” end quote. The woman has been testing my patience and it’s only been a few days and I was this close to showing this man that he has no authority over what I do and I will make an example from one of these women if I have to. I had a long day so I was going to soak in a bubble bath and just read a book. It was 9 o clock at night, Neveah was asleep so I was going to enjoy soaking in that bath. But of course while I was in the bath I heard this commotion outside. Can’t I have one night of peace and quiet. I just wanted to finish reading my book, was that too much to

Chapter: Bickering And ButterfliesSo to say Octavious didn’t say anything….. Yet. He just stood there staring at me with his hands in his dress pants. His stare was so intense I started to feel butterflies in my stomach and started to feel uneasy but in a good way. He didn’t dare to look away even once. I had to avert my eyes away from him or he would have seen the way I was staring at him and I myself didn’t know what I was feeling for this man.“You remembered.” Elijah said, hugging my leg, sounding excited. Clearing my throat I crouched down , holding the puppy out too little one. “Of course, how can I forget you were then so upset when pappa said no and asked that I should talk to him but I never got to it.” I said ruffling his hair still in my crouching position staring at Elijah who had a big smile on his face. It made me happy to see how his eyes sparkled when he looked at the puppy.“Grazie signorina Sofia.” (Thank you Miss Sophia) Elijah said, placing the puppy on the floor , swinging his arm around my ne

Chapter: Small Interaction“Excuse me, what did you just say to me?” The Plastic barbie asked, sounding offended. “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t mean that. I’m Sophia Romano and you.” I said with a smile on my face. “Oh you're related to Lucas.” She said, sounding disgusted in a way if I didn’t hear wrong but relieved at the same time. “His sister actually and you.” I inquired, tilting my head a little to the side. I still had the damn smile on my face and my cheeks started to hurt from all the smiling. Why was I smiling at her in the first place? Smiling kept me from doing something to this woman in front of me, I don’t know why but I wanted to just end her life on the spot for even looking at me as if she had an effect on me as if I should know who she was. I could have walked away ignoring her but I wanted to see what her problem was and having Elijah in my arms prevented me from grabbing her by her hair and pulling her across the lawn. “I’m Patricia…. Andersson.” She said in a matter effective voice almost li

Chapter: Unfamiliar feelingThe airplane Isabela is on should land in about a few minutes. I already sent a text to her to let her know we were parked. So now we are just waiting while I’m trying to get my dear brother on the phone but it seems like he is ignoring me. Elena is waiting for him and he isn’t picking up my calls. Of course he would because he ignored what I told him to do. Letting out a frustrated sight ending the call again for the 5th time. “Still not picking up.” Damien asked, typing away on his phone for the past 20 minutes since we arrived. “Yip.” I said, leaning my head back against the car seat, shutting my eyes. “Why don’t you try calling mister sexy and handsome. Maybe he is with them.” Damien inquired with a smile on his face. “And what tells you I have his number?” I asked tilting my head to face him, lifting my eyebrows. “Of course you do Sophia. I saw the way he looked at you the other night. Looked like he could devour you from the way he was staring at you.” Damien said, lifti

Chapter: Roommate Arriving at the hotel I stayed in, I drove into the underground parking lot turning off the ignition once I parked in the private parking spot. Getting out of the car I noticed that Elena seemed nervous all of a sudden. Looking down into the car Elena was fiddling with her hands again and nibbling on her nails. “You alright Elena.” I asked getting back into the car. “Yes, just thinking.” Elena said,turning her head towards me for a few seconds giving me a forced smile. “About what.” I asked turning my body towards her so that I could face her. “Just about how my life is going to be different once I step out of this car.” Elena said, turning herself to face me but looked back down. “Of course it will be different Elena.You won’t be alone anymore.You will have me and Lucas by your side from now on. And the rest of the Romano family will be there for you. And you won’t be doing the stuff you were doing when you were living with those damn annoying girls.” I explained trying to get h

Chapter: Elena So at the moment I was on my way to the address my brother sent me this morning to help the poor young woman who got pregnant by him. Look I love Lucas but sometimes he is a pain in the ass and she’s going to be stuck with him for the rest of her life and possibly the baby is going to be like him, hopefully not. I wasn't going to let her live and struggle on her own during this pregnancy. I had enough rooms in the penthouse so I let my brother know that I wanted her to live with me. That way she was close to me and I could help with whatever she needed. And also it would be easier to keep her safe and my brother when he comes over to help her. And it isn’t easy the first trimester so I didn't want her to be on her own. I'm coming from the university and my stupid ass brother wasn’t there when I told him that he was to go no matter what even if he had a hangover. I didn't tell him to go drinking like that on a school night. So what I said last night went through one ear and straigh

Chapter: Real youWaking up to my alarm blasting around my room, ringing constantly. Slinging my hand on the night stand I felt around dor the damn thing. Grabbing it from the night stand I threw it across the room, shattering into pieces falling to the ground but the damn ringing didn’t stop. Shooting open my eyes I looked to my left and there stood my fucking cousin, Damien, only a few feet away from me with a damn sly smirk on his face with his phone in his hand. Motherfucker wants to die I see. “Time to get your ass out of bed bitch, you have a busy schedule today.” Damien said, shutting off the alarm on his phone. “When don't I have a busy schedule and what the fuck are you doing here at 7 oclock in the morning?” I inquired scooting up against the bed to lay against the headboard. “Well change of plans. There were a few things added to the schedule so better to start early and then you will be done by 8 o'clock tonight, hopefully. ” Damien explained, sitting down on the edge of my bed cross
