ChiaraTraining had to stop because of problems with the new fence.That started to drive me crazy.Three whole days of only seeing Alessandro in the evenings was bothering me. I didn't know exactly why, but he would just go to bed to sleep and come out very early in the morning.I concentrated on working again, although it didn't work.My mind was dull, and I wanted more of Alessandro's scent.So I went looking for more clothes in his closet.I couldn't find a strong smell to calm my anxiety, so I rummaged through everything in his closet; that's how I stumbled upon a box. I couldn't help but take it out of the closet and look through it. I didn't know if Alessandro might be hiding any secrets, but I did know that if he had dared to pry into my affairs, I had the right to do the same.I never imagined what I found when I lifted the lid of the box.Inside the box were many papers in Italian, papers that must have been important; however, what really surprised me was to see a picture o
ChiaraThe days passed quickly.The ointment left by the healer was not only magical but also incredibly effective. By the fifth, the wound had closed, and the scar was beginning to lighten. I had no idea what it was that turned out to be so good, but I didn't complain about the results.Alessandro was much more anxious about all the repairs they had to do to the house, not because of the expense, but because of the fact that they had to accept the presence of strangers. That had him on edge, and because of that, I wouldn't leave his room. I had stayed with him so that he could control himself sufficiently.My smell calmed him down.It was something I could tell; every time he came close to smelling me, his body stopped tensing up completely.“How long will the repairs last?” I asked him on the morning of the sixth day after I woke up.“Until three days from now, according to what the contractor indicated,” Alessandro said. “Past those days, we'll adjust a training area at home. And t
AlessandroThe doctor and Loreta urged Chiara to sleep again.“You must try,” Loreta said. “Early we'll check the wound again and clean it. Right now it's wear and tear for you to stay up all night; you're going to change your circadian rhythm, and it's going to affect you. Get back into the rhythm.”“I'm just not sleepy,” Chiara said sincerely.“Then do it for Alessandro,” the doctor said. “He hasn't been able to sleep since he brought you in. He needs rest, and he won't if you don't.”I looked at the doctor with a frown but was surprised by Chiara's reaction.“Haven't you slept at all?” She asked with concern and moved to the side of the bed. “Come, sleep with me. Can she do it?”“No,” I said, and Loreta smiled.“Yes, he can sleep next to you,” she said confidently.“As long as you take care of your wound, yes,” the doctor said.Chiara opened the sheet and made room for me on her bed.I sighed with embarrassment but didn't hesitate to climb into the bed.It was small, but the mattre
AlessandroThe doctor stabilized Chiara and was able to transfuse her blood.At first the man was afraid that the human blood was not enough for Chaira, but she accepted it without problems. That generated a debate between him and Loreta that I ignored. I just stayed in the recovery area next to Chiara.I could not be separated from her, and everyone knew it.I couldn't explain the need I had to stay there, next to her; the only thing I could show others was how irritated I got when someone suggested I go and rest.Gregory would take control of my body; my eyes would turn golden, and I would grunt loudly.The only one who dared to challenge me was Loreta.“Don't be stubborn, go take a shower and get comfortable,” Loreta said without hesitation. “The way you are, you generate tension with Chiara; believe it or not, she feels the discomfort.”I scowled at her, and as if she needed reinforcement, in came Nicola and the doctor.“Loreta is right,” they both said in unison.“Go change, Ales
AlessandroI was on my way home when I saw the trespassing alarm on my property.I immediately pulled out my phone when it rang with the tone I assigned to Chiara's number and saw the message she sent me. The blood drained from my face as I became aware of what was happening.It was as if my world had finally been rocked.In that instant I understood the words my father said to me before he died, at my mother's birthday party.“When you find your mate and someone dares to park next to her, at that moment you will know what it's like to have someone rock your world,” my father said earnestly. “Nothing else will matter anymore but getting her to safety. Remember that when it happens and fight to keep that feeling from coming back to you.”At that moment I clenched the can in my hand and let go.“I need pictures of the house,” I spat, and Nicola agreed to the server.Many guards were dead outside and inside the property, so I accessed the forest cameras and saw something that chilled my
ChiaraI felt free for a moment.The sea of Catania was like a gift I had never had, and I simply decided to be a child who just wanted to play on the beach. What surprised me was to see Alessandro take off his shoes and run towards me and start splashing me with water.I screamed in surprise and then started splashing him.We laughed loudly until we sat down on the sand.I looked around the whole area, and the place was magnificent; the privacy was unique altogether.“This is paradise,” I said before sighing.“It was my father's gift to my mother after they got married,” Alessandro said, and I raised my eyebrows. “She was a lover of swimming, so she didn't hesitate to buy a place where my mother would feel safe.”“That's an unheard-of gift,” I said with a smile. “Your father didn't beat around the bush when giving gifts.”Alessandro laughed in amusement.“I know,” he said. “They were very special.”“Why?” I asked curiously.Alessandro didn't usually talk about his parents; I was curi
AlessandroI took Chiara to one of the coffee shops I owned.It was very close to the house and in a safe location; however, I kept the security protocol active. There were too many threats hanging over Chiara to dismiss them easily.“What about this place?” asked Chiara.“They make the best Sicilian breakfast here,” I said, and Chiara frowned.I got out of the car and opened the door for her, then led her into the cafeteria.Chiara didn't miss a thing, and the manager, upon seeing me, smiled and led us to a secluded table. She smiled at Chiara, and I ordered my usual. Then the woman left, and Chiara eyed me suspiciously.It was easy for me to smell her jealousy.She exudes jealousy from her pores; she is very possessive, though she denies it, Gregory said with amusement.My wolf had read Chiara very well.“I haven't slept with anyone since I saw you at the party,” I said immediately, and Chiara pulled back.I watched the moment the tension left her body.“I didn't—”“I'm just setting
ChiaraAfter that orgasm, my brain could not function.My body felt so light that for a moment I thought I had turned into a malleable jelly. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.Alessandro gave me a kiss on my neck and then led me to the bathroom and sat me on the toilet that was closed. And without hesitation, he cleaned me up. At that moment I went into autopilot; my body felt too lethargic.When Alessandro finished grooming us, he carried me and led me to a couch.“I'm going to give some orders, and then I'll come get you so we can leave,” Alessandro said, and I nodded.I closed my eyes again because sleep was taking over.I didn't know how much time passed, but Alessandro carried me and took me out of that office carefully. I tried to see, but there was only darkness in the hallway we were walking down. I only realized we were outside when the cold breeze hit my face, then Alessandro put me down for a moment, and it was hard for me to stand on my feet.I saw the limo, and Ale
ChiaraAlessandro took me to an office at the end of the second floor.He sat me down on a couch, and then I closed the office door. From there, he went into what I assumed was a bathroom. I couldn't help the tears that ran down my eyes; I was completely beside myself.Alessandro returned with a small damp towel and began to wipe away the blood that was beginning to dry on my face, arms, and neck. The thought of that man's blood on me sickened me, but the guilt consumed me completely.I began to cry harder.“It's going to be okay, Chiara, I promise,” Alessandro said as he carefully cleaned me up.I didn't know how long he lasted wiping me with that towel; I only know that I was out of phase with my reality. I felt out of my body, and that terrified Alessandro. He took off his jacket, put it on me, and then hugged me until the warmth of his body made me sigh loudly.“Are you okay?” asked Alessandro, and I looked into his eyes.“You killed a man in front of me,” I whispered in disbelief
