ALESSIA POV 

~~~~~~~~

A gun shot !!!!,

The wall cracked.

A gun shot is what I heard ,my eyes widened and standing in front of me is the almighty one night stand ,his eyes burning with fury, his jaw locked ,his eye balls so deep , sending unblinking stare towards Lorenzo,my supposed husband,his lips were pressed hard together. 

Shirtless and stunning it is…,I looked down to his hand and lo and behold a gun, his other fist was clenched so hard.

Laughter erupted across the room , coming from my supposed husband, Lorenzo.

“So why are you here ,superman ,to save your princess or what” Lorenzo said moving closer to him the laughter fading out into (deadly expression ,his shoulder leveling up into his, challenge him into a duo 

Did I just here princess ,why would he say that I don't even remember us having any romantic moment,and why's he trying to save me,the only time I could remember them is 12 years ago 

The atmosphere is getting more tough and tense.

“Listen to me, this is my room and the lady right there is my wife!!! you do not get the chance of barging in and out of my space” He shouted, his voice echoed hard.

Rocco gripped his shirt hard sending

And I was on the floor there wondering what was playing in front of me.

Before I could fathom what's happening,he was throwing punches at him,He tore his shirt and hitting him hard ,My supposed husband was bleeding and he still continue hitting him hard,fear gripped thinking he was going to stop breathing at any moment but I just sat there with my hands on my mouth 

He stood up and left the room after that, Lorenzo on the floor half dead and half alive , coughing continuously,after some few minutes he stood up as well and leave 

I can feel pain all over my body with the few slashes he gave me ,I felt lonely and defendless. 

I picked up my phone to talk to bianca but I realized she will be worried once she heard my voice , just I'm the wandering of my thoughts,my phone started ringing I picked it up and it was mum,tears gathered up in my eyes ,I picked the call

“Hello…Hello….”no sign of response 

The call ended ,I tried calling her after then but she wasn't picking 

Just when I thought I was strong the tears started pouring hard 

I never imagined a day would come that my dad would ever treat me this way, and my mum turning a blind eye towards me.

I unbox my bag ,and arranged it in the available empty closet ,but my mind flashed back to how everything moved fast and the incident that has occurred ,I feel so unsettled , nauseous And tired 

I decided to take a hot bath because I felt that's the best option at the moment ,got out and wear my pj ,there's still no sign of him back.

I picked a duvet and lay down on the sofa. I couldn't sleep that night. I kept turning and turning, why would he come in to save me? What's the plot behind all of these……

The thought in my head started giving me migraines.

I couldn't even think properly, I decided to call the only person to know better about the situation 

“Hello”

“Hi”

“Are you okay ,why are you still awake?”

“Yes I'm fine ,I just have some few questions to ask”

He went silent.

“What happened during those two years I can't remember. And how well are we close to these family”

“Alessia these is not the time for that just focus on yourself” 

“I need to know!!! What's it you're hiding and you're not telling me”

“Listen Alessia, the last thing you will need in your life now is more trouble and please make sure you don't have anything to do with Rocco, I'm pleading with you.”

“Why would you say that”I asked 

“Your curiosity will land you in more trouble, please be safe”,he hanged up immediately 

But what's going on ,I decided to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming.

The moment I saw Rocco , there's a weird feeling I can't figure out.

Something in me yearned for him, and part of me also felt like avoiding whatever room that equated his presence.

I decided to get up and left the room to get some water for myself to subdue the roller coaster emotions building up.

I didn't know how to maneuver around the house,along the hallway where other lined rooms ,I walked down the stairs ,the house is nothing compared to where I'm coming from ,it screams dangerous ,cold and unwelcoming 

I went down stairs hoping to find the kitchen to my lucky self. I heard the clattering sound ,so I traced the sound and finally opened the door , just to find Rocco sitting in the set up dining table eating ,(description of how handsome and nonchalantly he appears.

I ignored him totally even though my heart was pounding fast with each rhythm ,I located the fridge, took the water and walked as fast as possible. Just when I was about to turn the knob of the door ,my intrusive self kicked in ,I walked down to where he was.

“What's that letter from that day supposed to mean , what's with all these petty plans ,you could have said it from the on go you want to f*UK me ,you even acted like you didn't want it that day ,you know what I'm supposed to be the one saying thank you for your service,”at that point I was already furious,

“And how the hell do you know I was going to the there ,who the f*ck are you !!!”

And all he did to respond was trying to stand up and leave 

“And where do you think you're going?” I questioned him , blocking his way,with my blood fumming 

“Young lady leave my sight”

“Wow” surprised but quickly vanished into a hard icy stare 

“So you just want to keep quiet and even after the show you put up in that room."My expression still the same 

He was looking into my eyes ,the pain there was unbearable,raw, trembling as if he wanted to break,to cry ,but something colder slid over it, sealing the emotions behind an icy wall.

“Alessia you really hurt, it shouldn't have been you”

My heart sank…..

“What tttttttt…do..you mean”,at that point I was really scared

of what the response of my questions would be,fear gripping so hard for the unknown.

The news had traveled faster than a wildfire: I wasn’t the "Mystery Girlfriend." I was a "clout chaser," a girl who had built a shrine out of old memories for a man who didn't even want to breathe the same air as me.The new girl, Elena, didn't even have to say anything. Her presence was enough.
