65.Alessandro's POV I stood in front of the floor to ceiling window, watching the beautiful view of the city.A woman in her sixties knelt behind me in tears and at each whimper, she kept pleading.I didn't want to bring her to the mansion instead she was brought to my warehouse at the outskirts of the city.I pulled out a swivel arm chair in my office and sat, grimacing at the sight of her tears."I'll tell you everything, please don't kill me." I chuckled and puffed some smoke through my nose before replying, "don't be so dramatic, Mrs….remind me of your name.""Mrs Manhattan.""Mrs Manhattan. Good." I paused for a while, studying the look on her face.Her face was as red as crimson and I swear she was going to pee any moment from now."What do you know about Amelia's survival that day? She mentioned your name to me. What did you tell her...about me?" I asked, clasping my palms together."I...I used to work at the Vincenzo mansion thirteen years ago. That day when I sensed troubl
64. Alessandro's POV Shit! I cussed through gritted teeth.After a stupid thunderous laughter from Russo, the call came to an end and I angrily slammed my phone on the owner's seat.My car zoomed across the road as I moved with fast speed.No, that couldn't be true. Amelia should be at the lounge and not with Russo.I picked up my phone again and put a call through to Gianni."How the fuck did that bastard manage to scurry in!" I yelled, "where is Amelia?" I asked and his next words surprised me."She is still at the lounge, Capo. I can see her from my tab, she's still in bed."A wave of relief rushed down my spine and I sighed heavily.That dickhead!How dare he lie to me!That wasn't what was important right now and I should care less whether he was a bastard or not.All that mattered was that Amelia was fine and nowhere close to that fool.I had planned to find the Orphanage Home Administrator where Ameila grew up but plans must change now.I had to make sure Ameila was okay. The
63.Alessandro's POV "How could I have been so foolish to do that, father?" I asked, raising my brows at me.He seriously thought I did that?I killed Morano Vincenzo just like he wanted. Killed his wife and burnt his mansion too in which his daughter was.I was certain of that.How she showed up again after so many years still amazed me too.That night when she was brought down, I saw the mark on her neck.The wolf tattoo— a clear description of her mafia name, La Lupa. The she wolf."I knew it from the start there was something odd about everything." Dad gritted his teeth as he turned his back again."Her confidence was beyond the ordinary. She fucking confronted me. I saw it, she had the exact traits of someone. Her late father! Why is she still alive, Alessandro?"The air was think with tension and the way my father kept opposing and asking this same question pisses me off!I fucking didn't know why she was still alive."I burnt her, father." I replied, trying to beat in some sen
62.Alessandro's POV My phone wouldn't stop buzzing. Numerous notifications split in and just when I thought it was some messages from that stubborn rogue, my brows widened in shock when my eyes met the phone's screen.There they were. Pictures of Amelia and I. All our moments at yesterday's event were captured.Paparazzi was scattered all over the internet, taking ridiculous headlines.DON ALESSANDRO DEMARCO SHOWS UP WITH A RANDOM LADY AT THE EXHIBITION EVENT.IT'S JUST SOME DAYS AFTER HIS BREAKUP, NOW HE HAS FOUND ANOTHER SQUEEZEMy fists tightened in anger as I read through. Who was behind all of this?!I swear I am going to ruin the media that spread this.Why would they tag ameila as random? How did the news about my breakup with Regina break out?My mind went to nobody else but Russo. That bastard!I bit my lips in provocation and only stopped when I felt blood on my tongue.What the hell was this?My phone buzzed again and I was almost cussing when my eyes snapped to the phone
61.Amelia's POV People tend to speak the truth when they get drunk. I've heard that a lot of times and tonight, I wanted to get Alessandro drunk too and get him to tell me everything he knew about what Russo had said.I was very sure on this cause I have witnessed him get wasted. That afternoon when he got drunk and thought I was Regina."Drink more." I made him gulp down some content in the bottle and afterwards kissed him on his chest.I lifted the bottle, pretending to drink from the wine. Tonight, I wasn't so alright and I knew I wouldn't stop if I tasted from the alcohol."Do you give me the permission?" I asked, placing the bottle on the bedside table. I sat on his laps, my hands grazing his bare skin."Yes, do anything you want. You slut." He replied, earning a grin from me. A groan split from his throat when I circled the tip of my tongue on his perker.I moved up and down, repeating the action many times before I eventually slipped in cock in my mouth.His loud groans incre
60.Alessandro's POV "Alessandro, I have a slight problem zipping off my dress." Ameila groaned, struggling with the zipper of her dress."Turn around." I told her and she swiftly did. I held the zipper and instead of helping her with it, my eyes roamed the back of her neck down her shoulders.The scars from my whip hadn't cleared off yet but her skin still looked at captivating as ever."Are you done?" No, amoretto. I just want to fuck you."Alessandro…." She called again and I snapped out of my reverie. "Yes. Shit, I mean no." I was spouting gibberish. At just a little reveal of her skin, I couldn't concentrate.What if I saw her naked? I'm sure I was going to go more crazier than this."The zipper is stuck with some part of the dress. It's all done now." I stepped back after zipping down her dress a little."T...thank you." She grinned and I nodded with an appreciative smile."You're welcome. I can be of help anytime. In times like this, you need a man like me who is experienced
59.Alessandro's POV From the very moment I sighted Russo from afar, I knew he was going to spout a lot of nonsense.I had vowed to keep him from spilling anything to Amelia, especially not the one secret I have been hiding from her all these times."Let's leave here, Amelia." I grabbed her hand and pulled her away. Russo got in our way and leaned to whisper something into Amelia's ear which I didn't hear."Get the fuck away from her!" I yelled, my veins rising in anger."Calm down, DeMarco." Russo smirked, his eyes glinting with mischief. "For now, you can enjoy her while it last but I promise she'd be mine soon. I'll claim her just like I did with Regina. Trust me, I'm having a very nice time with her."I didn't bother to exchange words with him. He was a fool, a complete one.He wouldn't be the one to push me to create a scene here and get painted all over the news.I have been used to that but I don't want any unnecessary paparazzi, I didn't have time for that.Not now, when I'm
58.Amelia's POV The car halted in front of a beauty salon and Alessandro alighted before opening the door of the car for me.I glared at him with a stunned expression on while he just chuckled and took my hand, helping me out."What are we doing here?" I asked him as we walked in. "You'll know very soon." He said, rubbing the back of my palm with a smile."Good afternoon, Don DeMarco. Welcome to Facial." One of the attendants greeted and another walked up to us."Is this your girlfriend, sir? We promise to make sure she looks like extra dazzling in just some minutes. We have the best wears just for her." Girlfriend? Only if they knew I was nothing but his slave."Yeah, make sure of that. I'll pick a dress when you're done with the make-up. I'll be there." Alessandro said, moving to sit on a sofa some steps away."Please follow me, ma'am." The second lady gestured forward and I glanced at Alessandro before smiling and following her.I was asked to sit on a stool in front of a vanit
57.Amelia's POV I rolled my eyes at him and stood up from his bed. "I don't want your coffee." I snapped at him before grabbing my almost all torn dress and put it on."Hey." He called, grabbing my arm before I could walk away. I turned back sharply and looked at him in silence for a while.Those lips, sharp jaw, muscles. I wasn't going to fall for them now like I did in my dream."Where are you going?" He asked, releasing my arm. And that was when I realised that I've been staring at him for some minutes now.I took some steps away from him and tucked a few locks of my hair behind my ear. "The last time I checked, I have a room. So please I need you to step out of my way and allow me leave."Alessandro chuckled before pulling me closer to him by my waist. I gasped at his warm touch, I could even feel tingles on my skin.Whatever this man had done to me, it was high time I broke free from that spell he had cast on me.I tried to push him away but he was just so heavy like a rock.
