Mateo

After she fell asleep, I went back downstairs, dreading the interactions. When I went down earlier, Marcello wasn’t downstairs yet, but I was positive that I would probably find him there now, with his fiancée.

I really don’t know how they do it.

“Ah, you’re up?” Marcello greeted as he turned the page on his newspaper.

“Where are you coming from?” I asked as I rolled up my sleeves, and he shrugged.

“I have a present for you, out in the garden house,” he motioned with his head, and I crossed my arms over my chest.

“Really? What did I do to deserve it?” I asked as I pulled a chair out and joined him at the breakfast table.

“Nothing,” he smirked as he turned another page. “I just don’t like it when people mess with what is mine.”

He looked at me above the newspaper, a certain glint in his eyes, and I wondered what exactly he was talking about. Did he know that I had plans to get rid of him and destroy the empire he worked so hard for?

I had no use for it, after all. And I hated it,

    Zia“Zia sweetie, here’s some chamomile tea,” Tania whispered as she passed me her mug, and I looked up at her gratefully.“Thank you,” I muttered as I placed it on the coffee table before me. I was curled up on the couch, staring intently at the fireplace, watching how the logs caught fire.Tania’s house was pretty and cosy. It was extremely different from Mateo’s house when I moved in. Of course, he was willing and allowed me to turn it into a home that I thought fit both of us perfectly. It was warm, and I thought it fit us perfectly, reflecting our relationship.Well...After crying throughout my lunch, I made sure to leave my phone in the car and convinced Dave not to say anything to Mateo. I went back to work, and thank God, there were so many patient files that I had to digitise and that distracted me.Why did that boy have to show up and burst the blissful bubble I was living in?Moreover, why did Mateo beat him up? Why did he break his promise? I wanted to talk to him, but I

    MateoI waited for Zia’s response the whole day, and I got nothing. What did she talk to Dave about? Should I replace him with a female bodyguard instead? Why did Zia have to befriend everyone she met?I rechecked our messages as I walked down the hallway toward Marcello’s office.Me: Baby. Call me, please? Let’s talk about Dave’s sweet tooth.“Are you still checking on Zia?” Luis asked as he peeked over my shoulder, and I looked at him, annoyed.“Why are you always in my business?” I asked him, and he snarled as he clicked his tongue.“Why are you always having your business around me? Conduct yourself better,” he flipped his stupid ponytail behind him and strutted away.“You conduct yourself better,” I whispered as I tried to call Zia. I pressed the phone against my ear, listening to it ring as I waited to hear her voice, but all I got was voicemail.“Are you coming?” Luis asked as he peeked his head from Marcello’s office, and I waved my hand.“Tell him to get his ass in here right

    ZiaBeing engaged while married had a certain thrill, and I couldn’t hide my joy! But I had to first focus on completing my preceptorship before we could start planning the wedding, which I would rather be doing right now.I sighed as I took another sip of my water, getting ready to follow Nurse Malloy through another round again. It all felt like a dream sometimes, and as exhausting as school was, I was also grateful to Mateo that he allowed me to go back to school.Even if it didn’t all work out, I felt like he gave me an opportunity to fall back on something.“Since it’s your second week, all you’ll have to do is admin. We normally don’t have patients every day, but now and then, there’ll be some gory patients that you’ll have to treat. So, I’m hoping that with you documenting some of the patient information, you’ll get an idea of what kind of treatments we do here,” Nurse Malloy smiled, and I nodded“Got it,” I smiled as I took the files from her. Oh God, it was going to be a long

    MateoLuis and Tania sat on either side of me as we worked through the documents. I had told them that I wasn’t going to be in the office today after all the drinking I had yesterday, but dammit, I wasn’t expecting my night to end that way.Zia is magnificent, and I don’t deserve her.The way her hips moved last night would be forever engraved in my memories, and her sweet moans, damn. I doubted I would ever recover from last night. Even though I had an intense headache right now, all that soothed me were her breathless gasps, and the way I seemed to drown in those beautiful brown eyes whenever I stared into them.I could still feel her around me, her calming scent intoxicating me, her melodious tones that were music to me, her lost gaze filled with passion as she watched me, the way she clenched. I could still feel, smell, and hear her, and I wanted more.I cleared my throat as I sat up on the chair, trying my hardest to hide how turned on I was just from thinking of my wife.“So, th

    Zia“Is it just me, or has Drew been missing in action for a while now?” Carol asked as she leaned against Malik’s shoulder while slurping her milkshake.It seemed like she had set her eyes on a new target. And weirdly enough, they seemed like the perfect match. Hot and cold. Loud and quiet. Both probably had the same sex drive, who knew? Plus, Malik was cute, and he was probably emotionally available, like she wanted her men to be.And I was a hundred percent sure that Malik liked Carol, but he was probably keeping his feelings to himself because she was messing around with Luis, and he most definitely thought he didn’t stand a chance because he was everything Luis wasn’t.Don’t get me wrong, I loved my future kid’s uncle, but damn. He was dark! Even though he always wore a smile on his face, I could tell he had the capability of killing a man with his bare hands, damn, he might’ve done it already, but he had such a dual personality.
