Alessandro Caruso

“What are you doing here?” I asked, my tone flat and uninterested.

I watched her quickly turn her head the moment she heard my voice. “Guess we’ve passed the pleasantries,” she snarled, uncrossing her legs as she rose to her feet to face me.

Her expression was deadly serious.

Of course. Who else if not Rosalia Caruso?

“What’s this nonsense I’m hearing?” she sneered. “What the fuck am I hearing?!”

I frowned. “What?” I furrowed my brows. “Something like—”

Who else if not Rosalia Caruso?“What’s this nonsense I’m hearing?” she sneered. “What the fuck am I hearing?!”I frowned. “What?” I furrowed my brows. “Something like—”She burned holes into me with her glare before glaring even harder, her face tight with anger. “Don’t play dumb with me, Ales.”“Where is she?” Her eyes strained past me.My mind instantly drifted to Mira, but I still decided to play it cool. “She?”“Ales, where is she? The new bride you secretly married?” she half yelled, and my eyes almost widened, but I quickly composed myself.Still, I couldn’t wrap my head around it… how did she know? Who told her? I had planned to introduce Mira publicly at the Belladonna ch

    His eyes trailed slowly from my head down to my toes, and I instinctively curled them against the cold marble floor. Then his gaze snapped back to mine, causing my breath to catch instantly. “What are you doing?” he asked skeptically, his deep baritone voice sending a sharp chill down my spine. I quickly cleared my throat and shook my head too fast. “Hmm… I mean nothing. I…” My words stumbled over themselves as I nervously twisted my fingers together. One hand kept fidgeting with the sleeve of the oversized jacket I was wearing… and that’s when it dawned on me that I was still putting on the jacket from that taxi driver. Does this mean.. I didn’t actually take my bath last night? GOSH!! This is unbelievable I immediately shook my head. With everything happening, it probably skipped my mind. I pushed it aside and sighed, hovering my other hand awkwardly in the air like I suddenly forgot what humans normally do with their hands. “I was just..” I gestured vaguely around the ro

    Mira I exhaled deeply and ran a hand over my hair in frustration. Since last night that I got here, my heart has not been at rest. I don’t know if to blame myself but anytime I remembered that Theo is getting the treatment he derserves…. The blame vanishes but then again, I miss him. I’m sure he might be looking for me now. I can’t just leave him alone in the hospital, he might be smart and all that but he’s still a child. Oh God! I groaned and dragged in a sharp breath There aren't any escape ideas and scenarios that haven’t crossed my mind since yesterday but the problem is how do I go about it? This is not somewhere to fucking escape from without getting catch. This place is so huge, but honestly….. I trailed my eyes around the room, “this place is so fineeeeee,” I said, awed by the interior of the room. “This is screaming…. MONEY!” I whispered as if the air might hear me. My heart was drumming so fast not out of fear but shock. I haven’t been to a place like this. Ka

  • For His Heart, I Stole A Monster    Chapter five (The ledger)

    Alessandro Caruso “Alessandro Marcello Caruso and Mira Elizabeth Parker Caruso are hereby declared husband and wife.” My grip squeezed the side of the paper in rage as my cold gaze stared down at that name. I so much hate this. I groaned, frustrated and shut my eyes… fighting to control the amount of anger crushing hard on my veins like waves. “It’s just for one year, Ales. Get that ledger and fucking discard her.” I kept murmuring. Murmuring repeatedly to ease the rage inside me When suddenly the door of my office was pushed open fastly, cutting through my thoughts. Without turning, I snapped my head quickly to find Luca Moretti, my best friend strode in toward me with confusion and a newspaper clipping in his hand. I frowned. “WHAT?” “Man. What am I hearing?” He sighed and stopped right in front of me. Disappointment etched on his forehead as he waved the newspaper in the air. “How could you not fucking tell me that you’re fucking getting engaged with Gianna, nex

    “Where is the money?” He took a step forward and my breath hitched. My nails dug into my flesh. “Five hundred thousand dollars,” he said, and trailed his sharp eyes from my head to toes then back to my face. “Where is it?” God… what have I gotten myself into? My heart was racing very fast. The way I wished for the ground to open up and swallow me. “Still can’t believe that this thing-“ he whipped his finger toward me. “This thing fucking drugged seven hefty men and eloped with the bag of cash I left in their care!” His men gulped and lowered their heads, embarrassed. “Boss…we didn’t find the money with her,” immediately the word left one of them, a heavy punch landed straight on his face. “Ahhh!!” He cried out, stumbling back with his hand holding his bleeding nose. And my fear worsened. Alessandro growled, infuriated. “You still had the guts to talk!!” He barked, the others shrunk back. There was a dead silence That even a pin drop could be heard. Breathing

    “Mummy…!” “Theo,” I rushed toward his bed and sat, hugging him. He smiled and hugged me back. God, I have really missed him. “Mummy, where have you been? I missed you.” His small hands came to wrapped around me. Theo sometimes acts so mature and overly protective like he wasn’t a five years old child. I inhaled deeply and rubbed the back of his hair. “Mummy went to get money for your treatment.” As soon as the word left my lips, he instantly pulled away, his baby blue eyes widened. “…you mean my heart won’t hurt anymore?” I nodded, smiling and he shouted excitedly and hugged me back. And those bright smiles had made my previous worries vanished. I sniffed, blinking back my tears. Having him on my arms feels so good, I couldn’t afford to survive if anything could happen to him. “Excuse us, madam.” Our once sweet quiet moment was fastly interrupted. I quickly tilted my head to find three nurses behind us. “Please, madam…. If you can excuse us, we need to move him to the C

    Immediately I reached the service station, I lingered around until I was sure the bottle girls were not around then I instantly pulled out seven glass cups and a whiskey. And placed them on a tray. All throughout my heart was beating so fast but I knew I had to…. for Theo’s sake. I was abou

    Mira Parker Oh God… I squeezed the hospital paper in my hand, and leaned against the wall with my eyes shut. Tears slide down. “Miss Mira, we have also tried our best. Right now, you need to deposit money for his surgery…. We can’t afford to lose him. You can’t.” $700k? I inhaled sharp
