The Morning After
Millie was feeling more like herself. She had spent an hour in the bath, soaking while the men ordered breakfast.
"I hope you brought me some more clothes?" she asked as she sat at the breakfast table wrapped up in a thick bathrobe.
"Oh no, we didn't!" exclaimed Nick. "I knew we'd forgotten something."
"You'll have to stay in bed all day." moaned Gabriel with a cheeky grin.
Millie pursed her lips and narrowed her eyes.
"She's not buying it mate," Nick said, trying not to smile.
"Worth a try" shrugged Gabriel who couldn't stop smiling.
Millie shook her head in mock despair, "One man would have done" she muttered, " How come I get two of the maddening things?" she said, looking at Nick.
Nick thought he would tease her, he adored teasing her.
"Are you saying you don't want us?" He asked slapping marmalade on his toast. "And especially now that you have had your evil way with us."
Nick had that look on his face,

The concierge watched, as Nick Henderson and Gabriel Swann escorted their delightful lady friend across the foyer of the hotel. She was beautiful and had an innocent charm that would have his countrymen giving very long second glances."Mademoiselle Ashton," he bowed over her hand. "Enchante," he murmured.He turned to Nick, "I have ordered the best limousine for you, Sir," he raised his hand
HEAVEN & HELL To The Castle
Millie looked around the jet. The cream leather seats looked like they could swallow you up. They were so big and squashy. They had red silk and gold scatter cushions arranged neatly on each chair and across the sofa. The sofa faced the plasma television screen, and there were fresh flowers on the tables. Millie looked around in awe. This plane was far superior to the one she had flown on to Paris. She truly felt she had entered into a luxurious place. Millie was glad, and it would make their last hour together very comfortable.She was glad they had rented a villa, Nick said it was only two miles from the Castle de Costa so that they wouldn't be far away, and they would come and collect her each evening. There was no way she was staying the night there, she was coming home to her men, her mother could scream blue murder, but she was not staying the night there.Once they were airborne, Nick moved to sit on the sofa. He patted the seat next to him, wanting Millie and G
HEAVEN & HELL Alphonso.
The car pulled up in the forecourt of the castle, Millie looked around, and she was quite entranced, it looked so ancient. She was dying to find out the history of it. Italians of the Medici period had this urge to kill and then ask questions later, and with a smile, she wondered if Nick had any Italian ancestry. The gate, wooden and massive, was attached to the stone walls with three-foot iron hinges, and the door, decorated with iron studs was the first sight to repel visitors. Millie couldn't see a bell or a chain to pull so she took hold of one of the twisted iron handles and pushed the door open.The door creaked but swung open quickly, presenting Millie with a courtyard full of greenery, and stone archways, giant ornate stone planters and Millie could see lanterns for when the sun went down. It would look like an enchanted forest. She could imagine playing here as a child, and there were so many places to hide. She walked through the greenery and under the archway looki
HEAVEN & HELL Escape
Millie's feet hurt. There was a blister from the straps on her sandals. It hurt, and she had nothing to stop it happening. She sat at the side of the road and found a tissue in her bag she wrapped it around the strap on her sandal and gently put her foot back in it. She didn't think the tissue would last very long, but it did feel better for now. She had to hurry, if they discovered that she was missing, then they would send that huge man out to look for her, and there is no way she could escape from him. Fortunately, she hadn't seen any cars on the road, she had no idea what she would do if she had, there was hardly anywhere to hide—no woods at the side of the road like they had at home, just flat, scrubby grass. Well no point worrying about that now, she just had to get back to the villa.Nick and Gabriel sat on the lounger they had shared that afternoon. They were both in shock. Giuseppe had come back and told them what the security man had told him. That Millie had
HEAVEN & HELL Revenge Is A Dish Best Served Cold
"What the hell? Did you hear that?" Nick looked at Gabriel, "Millie?"Gabriel shouted, "Millie!"There came a wavering cry. "Gabe, Nick?"They ran down the hill skidding as the stones under their feet flew in the air. She was sitting on the track, waiting for them. Gabriel reached her first, and he gathered her up in his arms."Oh Millie." he breathed, "Oh baby, we thought we'd lost you."Millie burst into tears of relief she clung to Gabriel's neck. Nick put his arms around them and held them both tightly. He'd never felt quite so emotional over a woman, and this was all he'd ever wanted to have these two people in his life, Millie and Gabe and to love them forever.They carried her up the steep hill between them, taking it in turns to hold her. They were soon at the top, and Nick brought Millie into the bathroom so they could attend to her injuries. Nick sat her on the bathroom counter and examined her bruised and swollen knees and the bla
HEAVEN & HELL Sitting By The Pool
Nick and Gabriel bathed Millie between them caressing and stroking her. Slowly relaxing her until the tension of that dreadful afternoon left her face and shoulders.The thick, large towels Gabriel wrapped around her were warm, soft, and fluffy, and her hair gently dried, and then she was carried to their bed. Her last thought before her eyes closed was that someone else bathing you was the most relaxing thing ever.She never moved all night even when Nick and Gabe had slipped into bed on either side of her a few hours later.The next morning Millie was feeling her aches and pains, her knees were stiff when she tried to stretch her legs, and it was agony if she tried to move her elbow. She lay with her head on Gabriel's shoulder his arm around her, between her and Nick. She smiled at the thought that Gabriel was touching her and Nick at the same time. He liked everyone happy.She could feel Nick behind her spooning up to her. His head resting against Gabr
HEAVEN & HELL Afternoon Delight
"Sweetheart, we have to talk about what happened yesterday and what we are going to do about it," Gabriel said, he reached for her hand his thumb stroking over the back of it. Gabriel was about to say something, but Millie stopped him."I want revenge, and I know what to take away from her, I just don't know how."Nick and Gabriel looked at her and each other. Her statement was surprising neither of them thought that she would implement anything like this."Tell us what you want us to do." Nick ran his palm along her leg. "What will make her suffer?"Millie laughed, "Oh, that's easy, a complete lack of money, if she has no money, she can't do a thing. She will suffer, she will think people will be talking about her, she will lose her friends, such as they are." She looked at Gabriel, "I'm going to make her suffer, the way she made me suffer, the way she made you two suffer. She won't know what's hit her. Not by the time I've finished with her and Pe
HEAVEN & HELL At The Castle
"Looks pretty solid," Nick said as they both stood outside the Castle home to the Costa family for the last five hundred years. Giuseppe had driven them down from the villa after Sophia and Millie had gone to see Sophia's granddaughter and her new baby.Millie loved babies, and she was delighted that Sophia had asked if she would like to go and see her new great-granddaughter. Nick and Gabe were going off to see some music producer, and she was quite happy that they had gone without her. She could have a sunny afternoon cuddling a baby and practising her Italian.Down at the castle, Nick and Gabe walked up to the main door "Millie said she just pushed it open, there doesn't seem to be a bell or anything." Gabe said.Nick shrugged and pushed the enormous wooden door. They ended up in the pretty leafy courtyard where Millie had hidden from her sisters and mother."Millie said it was pretty.
