Chapter 7 Unbelievable Reaction
Arius Accardo,
It’s been six months, and Nicole still hasn’t found Aria. I only need her to complete the blood oath between our Padres, but I still consider her my friend.
Protecting her is my duty. Don’t know where Zia (aunt) Lauren took her and where they were living?
The only thing happened in this period was Salvatore couldn’t find her. I need to give him a reason to distract him. This can be the way to save her.
I got up and walked up to the window of my penthouse, dropping the cigarette in my hand. I saw the old file of Elena’s basic information peeping out from the bookshelf beside.
A thing made me wonder about that girl, so passionate and loyal to her work. She does all my work, but never complained about that.
She molded well around me, but her outbreak of angered me. The challenging look in her eye made me want to break all ties and make her realize what Arius Accardo is, but I felt nice witnessing her anger, which made me more agitated.
I left to handle the rest of the meeting as I wasn’t able to continue further after hearing her raced heart beats and those honey brown eyes.
The most interesting thing was, she wasn’t uncomfortable, but her hands were perfectly relaxed. I think she is getting inclined towards me, unknowingly because when I freed her, her eyes flashed a hint of respect.
When I opened the door of my office, I saw Nicole waiting for me on the couch. As I entered, he flashed his cheeky smile at me. Hell, why does he smile so much at everyone?
He is the right man for me, but this didn’t fade his smile a bit, maybe because he is also my only friend. I shook my head in disbelief and went towards the desk.
“How was your meeting, bro?” he asked, while approaching the chair in front of me. He had a mischievous tone and shine in his eyes. Just hope his drama will end soon.
“Like meeting.” I replied to him in my usual haughty tone. He burst into laughter after hearing the answer. He started swinging in his chair with a sweet smile.
“When you came here?” I questioned him while taking the file from the corner of the desk.
“Just after, when I saw you making out with a girl in the corridor.” He confessed boldly. He saw me and Elena together. Now, he is going to drag this thing.
“So what?” my reply made him stop his swinging, and he flashed his smirk at me.
“Nothing, I am surprised that you haven’t slept with her yet.” I rolled my eyes at him. Yet. We will see it later.
She is attracted to me, but the most interesting thing is that she didn’t even know this. Better for me. I know I have lusted after her from the day my eyes landed on her, but I couldn’t see it in her eyes.
I couldn’t see any lust in mine too whenever her eyes reflected me in them. Something is wrong there.
“Why you come here? What’s happening with shipments?” I diverted his attention from me and Elena to work. As I very well know, it will always work.
“On the point bro, I have found out a very interesting piece of info but forgot after watching you with her.” he replied in his best apologizing tone.
Bastard, even shouting it. We can’t do anything with him. He sat in an attentive position in his chair.
“You know? Why are we failing to find Aria?” hearing outcomes from his mouth, made me go stiff and furious that if this was about her, then why the fuck his mouth was shut about it. I stood up from my chair. He too gets up as he sees my changes on face.
“I know, I know. I should have told you this before.” He pleaded with me. I turned away from him and told him to continue with my hand. I heard his loud sigh of relief.
“You’re Padre.” He muttered in a low tone. His confession made me turn to him in disbelief. Why would he do that? This is the thing he wants me to do wholeheartedly.
There is something I need to know about it. Nicole just nodded at me, confirming that he wasn’t talking nonsense.
“Uncle helped Zia Lauren to hide and erase every trace of her. Now, finding her is your test to become boss of the Italian mafia.” That’s why we were failing to find her.
I know that this entire thing is done by Padre, then it is nearly impossible to find her. I even need to think about Salvatore.
This news is our means he is too trying to find her out and won’t be stopping until he finds her, making her life always be in danger.
“Stop trying to find her. If Padre did this, then we will not find her this way.” I ordered him. He nodded at me in confusion.
“What about Salvatore?” he questioned me. I took a seat in my chair again.
“We just need to distract him.” I completed and just after that I heard a knock on the door. It must be Elena.
The door of the office opened after my permission. She entered the office, looking at the file in her hand as usual. Sometimes, I even saw her walking here and there while reading files.
She stopped in her pace when she saw Nicole in the office. She looked confused but dumb ass Nicole approached her with his smile like before and complemented her.
Good, he didn’t know that she didn’t know Italian. But the courage of this half brain that he again called her beautiful in English.
She blushed when that bastard kissed her hand. I turned my head from her; I was so fuming that I could have killed anyone right here, but I was suppressing my anger.
I don’t even know for what reason I was so angry? She blushed at him or he kissed her hand or both? Whatever the reason is, it didn’t matter. I ordered her to leave the office right then.
Even after she left, Nicole was only speaking about her. She this, she that and what not. We both left the office and went to the penthouse to get fresh.
I needed a break from all this drama, so I decided to go to my club to chill out for a few hours. Nicole informed the club, and they reduced the crowd as they hated being surrounded by people.
I also needed to find out the way out of Salvatore’s trap. I know him very well; he will definitely try to take his revenge. I was about to enter my club but had to stop as I saw an almost drunk Elena standing there blocking the entire way, widening her eyes combined with a slightly open mouth.
She was wearing a short black dress which was up to her mid-thigh with only one shoulder. She was looking so appealing in black. I never thought that black could look this beautiful on someone.
I waited for a few moments to let her move, but she didn’t move. One of my men forwarded it to move her away from my way, but I stopped him in between showing my hand and he backed off.
“Elena, what are you doing here?” as I asked her, her trance broke, and she blinked a few times before composing herself. It’s so clear that she had drunk a lot of drinks.
“I am here to welcome you, Mr. Accardo.” She answered while looking behind me while playing with the hem of her dress. Welcome to me? There was a better reason to lie. She couldn’t, even if she did, would have found out.
“Alright, come with me.” I ordered her. She beamed with my words and followed me. I saw her showing thumbs up somewhere while taking a seat on the couch.
I turned and saw a table where a couple was drinking and an ass friend of hers sleeping on the table. The man showing thumb to Elena. She nearly collapsed on the couch while seated.
Who told her to drink this much? She was rotating her head in every direction with a frown on her face, and finally turned to me.
“Where is Nicole, why your friends aren’t taking seats?” she interrogated while leaning forwards at me. Why is she asking about him? His name from her mouth, making my anger rise as I remembered her blush from the office.
“You don’t need to know.” She made a face when I finished my words. I was about to laugh, witnessing her look.
“I just have to give you something, then I will leave.” She nearly yelled while crossing her hands. Someone put a tray of tequila in front of me.
Chapter 8 Sweetest Lips“I just have to give you something, then I will leave.” She nearly yelled while crossing her hands. Someone put a tray of tequila in front of me.I was surprised as she snatched the glass of shot from my hand and emptied it in one go. When she finished, she banged the glass on the floor.“I need it to do it or otherwise I have to tell my deep secret to them.” She confessed something that I didn’t get at all. She was breathing hastily and her one hand was on her chest.Let her talk, she is drunk. She scooted near me. I turned my head towards her. She pointed something behind me with her finger.“Look, Nicole.” She shouted suddenly. I was about to turn my head, but I knew he wasn’t there, so I turned towards her midway. Before I could speak anything, I felt her lips on me. She pecked my lips but froze in place.She didn’t even retreat, but clasped her dress in
Chapter 9 Uncertain FeelingsElena Davis,A feeling of falling into a cold pond wakes me up from my deep sleep. I jerked up on my bed with dripping wet hair and dress, wondering me about what happened to me?Calming my raced heart, I started checking my condition. As my gaze rose upwards from my covers, I knew I need to write my will as patty was standing with an empty bucket and the face which only remind me of the death.She was breathing visibly with her red and razor sharp gaze, making me wonder the reason of her volcanic anger. Is Tom did something? I don’t think so; maybe I had done something wrong.The flash of kissing Mr. Accardo crossed my mind, which froze my world. The touch of his rough lips still lingering on my mouth, his taste is fresh in my mind.The way he was pulling me more into him; trying to blend me in him, making me feel every skin he could do that time
Chapter 10 Bursting out“No, no, never.” I continuously opposed the idea and my mind again remembered the feeling of his lips gliding on mine. His beating heart was below my chest, that resonating peaceful sound.The way I was molded to his body; I am experiencing the same pull again in air.“Then why are you blushing pink?” he asked, while closing the distance between us.“I am not.” I refused, shaking my head in negative.“Yes, you are fiocco din eve (snowflake).” He called me something in Italian again. Why he always says something in Italian when he very well knows I don’t understand Italian at all.“NO. Mr. Accardo. It’s weather.” I spoke adamantly, but we both very well know the truth.“Ok, let’s test your theory.” He insisted while resting his both hands beside the wall of parapet, leaning down at me; brushing his rough stubble over my cheeks while chuckling at h
Elena Davis,The sudden squeeze over my waist made me gasp loudly, and he took advantage of it, sliding his tongue with speed. His every trust devouring me; measuring new depths each time.He is going too far. I should stop him. I was trying hard, but the feeling of him was too hard to protest. Pushing him with my tongue I tried to break the kiss, but they get entangled more than ever, breaking an appreciating groan from him by pulling me more in him, making me practically rest on his chest.I was out of breathing, but he wasn’t allowing me to take the air. I beat his chest to break free. But that was gone in vain. Then I bit his lip, making him break the kiss and gasping as much as possible for air. I rested my head on his chest.I lost my balance, but he was squeezing me on him with his hand while panting for air. I was completely out of energy, technically dandling over him for support like wine.
Chapter 12 Rain of BulletsArius Accordo’s Pov,I don’t know how to feel. Should I be happy or mad at her? She kissed as I am the last hope of her existence melting in me like she became a part of my body, making it a treasured moment for both of us.The melodious voice of her thumping heart was the only thing I could experience besides that drug like feeling of kissing her. But she kissed after threatening the life of that worm.Why does she care about him so much? He kissed her cheek, and I felt betrayed. I didn’t prefer anyone’s touch over her, and that bastard dared to kiss her. I am so eager to kill that worm, but I can’t, as she is fond of him.She acted strange this morning. She didn’t greet me with her dazzling smile as usual, but rolled her eyes at me in annoyance. I am quite used to witnessing her smile every day, but still she has to pay the price of rolling that captivating h
Airus Accordo’s Pov,I got down and walked over to Ben to see what happened to him, as he said to me, he will protect her with her life. Enzo and Nicole picked up the unconscious Ben on their shoulder and walked towards another car.He gets lucky that he wasn’t in his state, or consequences will be worse for him to risk her life. I said nothing to them, as they are used to handling such conditions very well.I sat in the car beside her, placing her head in my lap. She is gorgeous, even in this state. I didn’t like the trails of tears formed on her cheeks; they are making me uncomfortable and raising an uneasy feeling in me.It’s nothing Arius, just a few days' hangover from her. It will wear off in a few days. I must not be attracted to her, but my every attempt fails when she opens her golden pools for me.Beautiful,
Chapter 14 Wishing ThreatenedElena Davis’s Pov,“Yes. You idi-” I screamed at him loudly and about to cuss, but he jerked me on the wall of the bathroom within a blink of an eye. For a moment, I couldn’t figure out what actually happened to me. He started kissing me with a lot of pressure.I gripped his neck for support as my legs who lost their strength as his lips touched mine, circling his arm around my waist to pull at his chest. He groaned loudly as I didn’t kiss him back.“Why?” He asked something, but his lips still weren’t leaving mine.“What?” I inquired, as I got nothing from his question. His hot, ragged breathing was pricking the skin of the neck, forming goose bumps all over the body.“Why are you worried about me?” He asked, clearly smelling my skin through the crook of my neck and resting his lips over my neck. I pushed him with all my force, taking a few step
Chapter 15. Puzzled Heart Elena Davis, “I am ok Patty.” As I finished, she hugged me and just cried for a few moments. I didn’t break the hug, I just held her. She is an orphan like me and always tries to give me love equal to mother. She must be scared a lot. “Shuuu… look, I am perfectly fine.” I made her look at me while removing the teardrops from her cheeks. She was nodding at me, but fresh tears rolled down again. “Police said they weren’t able to find yours-” Patty shuddered, tightening her grip on my hands. Oh God, they thought I died. It must be very difficult for them to hear. “Mr. Accardo saved me from that accident.” I confessed, and she nodded at me. “We were a lot scared, El and where were you last night? If you were alright, then why didn’t you call us before?” Theo asked, coming out from a bathroom holding a first aid box in his hand. Complete night? Was I out for the ni
