Antonio’s gaze shifted towards the entrance, he hushed Amora’s whimpering with his finger lining across her lips.Could it be his father-in-law? Or Vittoria? He wasn’t sure but the knock persisted. “Stay on that bed and don’t move a muscle,” Antonio barked. She nodded frantically in affirmation.He got off the bed and headed for the door without sparing a glance at Amora.“Daddy!” his daughter shrieked, trying to push past him as he opened the door . He stopped her feeling relieved.“My little angel,” he said gently to his daughter, whose features were so like his own. He crouched down to meet her gaze. “What do you need, sweetheart?”“Vorrei un gelato (I want ice-cream). Mamma said you would get it for me if I asked nicely.” Damn it! He frowned. Vittoria, really? She can’t even get an ice cream for this child, she always love delegating duties. Always acting as if she’s the man of the house when he’s actually the man! He thought to himself still holding onto his daughter. He force
While there were many things about Vittoriathat unsettled Amora, one thing in particular stood out. The way she made it clear that Antonio belonged to her.“Antonio is such a child,” Vittoria said. “He has a lot to learn. I’ll make you his personal assistant, and he won’t even question it. I know him. He doesn’t care for the women who have shared his bed, I’ve seen him with his secretaries before.”If Vittoria was trying to provoke her or get a rise out of her, Amora didn’t know. But she wanted to believe that Vittoria didn’t know Antonio as well as she claimed.“My husband lacks morals.” Vittoria added.Amora tried to think, but Vittoria’s words were making it hard to focus. She couldn’t speak. Her throat was tight, as if it had closed up.Just then, the door opened and an assistant walked in with a dress in her hands.Vittoria shoved the dress at Amora. “Put this on. I won’t have my husband seeing you like this.” Amora turned to go, but Vittoria called her back. “Before you leave,”
She can’t bear the pain. She held onto Eduardo and refused to let go. He held her close. “I’m sorry, Amora,” he told her. “I left when you needed me the most. I am going to make you happy.”He is going to protect her from her abusive husband and father. Amora deserves more than what she’s getting from everyone. Poor Amora! He lamented.“What do you mean?” he had asked Camila, his voice trembling.Camila took a deep breath and said, “It’s not good.” He could see how Camila was trying to hold herself together, “Amora didn’t ask for all these. Now she’s dying away.”Those sentences made him have hope of saving Amora, it’s better than hearing that she was dead earlier. There’s no way he would stop blaming himself for what happened to Amora. He said to himself while snuggling Amora closer to his bosom.Camila came out of the house and was surprised to see that Eduardo hadn’t left. He was standingand holding onto Amora, he was cuddling her which made Camila start biting her lower lips i
CHAPTER NINETEEN Antonio continued smiling at his wife, his face beaming with happiness. “Ever since I met my wife crouched in a corner, feeding her puppies crunch of biscuits, smiling so radiantly at them, I knew that she's the one for me." "Awwwn, you still remember that moment?" Vittoria asked blushing. "Why won't I remember, that's the most favourite part of you, I don't always get a chance to catch you vulnerable." He said stroking her cheeks. “What do you have to say Mrs. Alessandro?” One of the interviewers asked. “Well,” Vittoria said, giving Antonio a peck on the cheek. The reporters and interviewers blushed. “I love Antonio, and I can’t imagine looking at another man the way I look at him.” “Awww. You know Mrs. Alessandro, people are asking how you’re able to combine family life, being a mother of three, a wife and also able to control your father’s company to an extent.” “Well, you’re asking that because you don’t know who my wife is.” Antonio joked causing ever
Her eyes dilated in shock ,“The house belongs to me?” She pointed to herself and the large house in front of her.He curled his lips into a soft smirk, he crossed his arms taking in the surprised look on her face, “You don’t have to act surprised.” He said in a low voice, “I told you that I would do anything for you if you were to be my mistress.” He added strolling towards her and leaning in for a swift kiss on her forehead, “This is one of the benefits of dating an Antonio.” He whispered into her while she chuckled, tickled and ran into his arms.She wrapped her legs around his waist, “Oh my God!” she was screaming in her loudest voice while he pressed her soft body to himself loving the way his body reacted to hers. He was vibrating, she was happy. It was so visible on her face and in her sweet loving brown eyes. He kissed her on her face with his arms around her waist, “You’re my Bambino, I’m supposed to do anything to make you happy.”Her face flushed, “Do I make you happy?” s
She dug her hands into her hair, fuming, “Argh!!” she groaned rushing to her phone and stomping her feet on the ground repeatedly.She picked up her phone and typed in the passcode ferociously, she dialed her ex’s number, Bryan.“Babe, why are you calling me?” His voice filtered into her phone while she rolled her eyes. “So I can’t call you?” She sighed out, “Because I missed you.” “Camila, stop being so sly. It doesn’t work on me. It can work on your dumb pretty friend but never with me.” “Amora is not a dumb pretty friend, she’s my...”“Your money bag?” Bryan scowled over the phone, “I can’t believe you have been ripping that girl off for more than seven years now and she still haven’t figured you out.”“I’m not ripping her off, Bryan. We’re friends and we love each other. I love her more than she loves me.”“Quit lying Camila, you can lie to everyone but not me.”“I don’t know what you’re saying Bryan but, Iwill need your help.”“Help? What kind of help?” “Can you help me with
"What do you mean Mr. Buccolini is here?" Antonio asked the assistant before Vittoria flipped at him,"He was supposed to be here for the board meeting before you barged in like a dog on heat messing everything all up!"Antonio hushed her stepping closer while the assistant watched in horror, "Don't use that word on me, I've warned you before. I'm not a dog but your husband!!!""Are you sure you're not a dog?" She craned up her neck, burning her eyes into his, "Because you not only act like a dog but the one on heat!!! All the time, you are horny and you wanna have sex even if it's with our nannies, maids!!! Virtually everyone!!!" "I'm always horny and what did my wife do to help? What did you do to make me feel better? Really? I didn't expect to hear this from you." He gave out a devilish chuckle, "That's why I will always cheat on you, I will never stop until the day I sign our divorce papers and we part ways!!!""As if you can divorce me. Stop deluding yourself, Antonio, we both k
“I don’t have any use for her anyway.” Antonio added while Amora shuddered, her eyes dropping to the floor immediately avoiding those men’s eyes.The men hung up the phone and turned to her, “He wants you dead. He has no use for you.” One of the men mocked while her teeth clattered together. He was laughing uncontrollably while staring into her face. Her stomach rumbled and she threw up on his face while he rose up to hit her, “How dare you!!!” The other man held him back and pushed him away. “I wanna hit that face of hers, how can she throw up on me like that?” “Can you calm down? Can’t you see that she’s scared already?” The other man asked but Amora was fretting, she wiped off her mouth forcing back the tears in her eyes. “She’s highly unfortunate, this is what happens when you date men who are not your age,” the man remarked while she cried harder. “What are we do to her?” “Kill her like he said.” “No.” Amora shook her head, clasped her hands and began to rub them together,
