Larissa Maynard

FLASHBACK - FIVE YEARS AGO

~•~

“Has your boyfriend not called you yet?” My roommate, Madeline, questioned when she saw me staring at my phone for the umpteenth time that afternoon.

I shook my head, no. Caspian and I were supposed to go on a date last night, but he never showed up. For a while, I wondered if he had forgotten he was meant to pick me up and I went to the restaurant myself but he hadn’t checked in the reservation. Against all odds, I decided to wait for him but there was no point since he never came last night.

At first, I was mad at him. Then, I got worried because Caspian was not the kind of guy to stand me up and not tell me beforehand. I left a ton of messages but none of them were opened.

I was going to wait a few more hours. If I didn’t get a reply, I was going to go to his place. We had been dating for two years since my freshman year. He’d been a junior at the time and graduated some months ago, but we were still able to see each other regularly.

  • Temptation of Caspian Bianchi   54. Final chapter

    Larissa Maynard ~•~As soon as I woke up the next morning, Caspian was up and ready to take me home.I told him we could do it after work, which was why I was currently waiting for him to come get me. I finished work pretty early today and while Caspian’s home was amazing, I was happy to be out of the house.I heard a knock on my door before it was pushed open. “Do you still have more work to do?” My new assistant asked. Well, he’d been working alone for almost a month and I shouldn’t be calling him new but I still missed Ava.I shook my head. “I’m done here. You can go home. I’m just waiting for someone.”“Are you sure?”Another thing about him was that he was eager to work. “Yes, see you tomorrow.”“Alright, ma’am.” He nodded before he turned on his back and left.As soon as he did, I got a call from Caspian and my face immediately broke into a smile as I picked up the call. “I’m downstairs.” He said as soon as I brought it up to my ear.“I’m on my way,” I told him and hung up. I’d

  • Temptation of Caspian Bianchi   53. I’ll never leave you

    Larissa Maynard~•~I got back from work pretty late and as soon as I entered Caspian’s room, I saw the suitcase I’d come with, along with another smaller traveling bag that contained the things I’d bought while staying with him when I opened to look.A frown automatically marred my face as I wondered where the hell Caspian was and why he packed my things. Sure I’d told him I wanted to move out but he was the one delaying it. Had he finally realized he was tired of me?I’d wanted to wash up and go straight to bed but I kept my bag on the bed and went downstairs. I didn’t even know if he was at home, but if he was, he was either at the gym or his office.I decided to check his office first. When I got there, he wasn’t in, but Antonio was.“Larissa!” He exclaimed as I pushed the door open. He was sitting behind the desk, twirling the chair. I let out a small laugh, knowing Caspian was going to complain about it if he saw his younger brother on his chair. “We live in the same house but it

    Larissa Maynard~•~Despite what Caspian said, he didn’t let me move out just yet. He told me to give him a week and then, he could let me leave. I’d asked him the reason, but he didn’t say.I was nervous as we stood in front of my parents’ house. It was the first time I was ringing the doorbell because I brought Caspian with me.They’d met him back when we were younger. I just didn’t know if they would still like him or not. The time they met, he was still a senior in college so they didn’t have much expectations for him.“I can feel your anxiety rolling off you in waves.” Caspian casually commented as he intertwined his hand with mine. “How are you more nervous than me? We’re visiting your parents whom you grew up with.”He was right. I had no reason to be nervous but being nervous anyway reminded me how much I liked Caspian. I was tiptoeing around the word, love, knowing damn well that was what I felt for him, but I knew that if I admitted it to myself, there was no going back.We

  • Temptation of Caspian Bianchi   51. Obsessed

    Caspian Bianchi~•~I had the strongest urge to call a truce with Dario Wellman just so Larissa could be safe.But then, I thought of how he killed my father, how he ambushed my mafia just for a power trip, how he let his men rape my sister, and how he’d hurt Larissa if I let him roam free.He didn’t deserve to live.A truce wouldn’t mean shit to him so I had to end it once and for all. I didn’t care about the members of his mafia. If they wanted to come after me just because I killed their boss who deserved to die, I didn’t mind. I would deal with whoever dared to put Larissa in danger. Anyone still working with him after what I put out deserved to die anyway.It was very hard convincing Dario to meet with me. He believed it was a trap and he was smart in believing so because I wouldn’t miss any opportunity I got to blow his brains out.I really shouldn’t be thinking of killing a man while I was on a date with my girl but it had to do with her safety.As though Larissa could hear my t

  • Temptation of Caspian Bianchi   50. Never let go

    Larissa Maynard ~•~I didn’t know what the fuck was happening. One second, I was leaving the supermarket. Next, two men were attempting to grab me. It was like they didn’t anticipate Aldo behind me or they underestimated him because before they could touch me, he had twisted both of their arms at the same time. Then again, it was their fault for stalling first, trying to talk to me before they attempted to take me.I was shaken up. I wanted to leave but Aldo didn’t want me to leave by myself. He also couldn’t leave the men there in the alley where anyone could walk in and see them, or worse, where they could run away. So he called Caspian and I crouched on the ground to wait.I was absolutely relieved when I heard him call my name and I immediately ran to his arms. “You’re safe.”“I know,” I murmured into his chest. I was always safe when he was around but that didn’t mean the fact that I’d almost gotten kidnapped didn’t scare me.“I promise that this is the last time you’ll face any

  • Temptation of Caspian Bianchi   49. A trap

    Caspian Bianchi~•~The fucker was lousy at his job.It took less than a day for Pedro to follow his tracks and trace his IP address to some abandoned building.I was supposed to take Larissa on a date today since she was tired yesterday, but I figured it was more important to take care of the man who was causing her troubles. I wanted her to live freely without the need for a bodyguard even if she was going to have one for the rest of her life.Pedro and I were going to check out the place, together with another of my men, Vincenzo. Antonio wanted to come with me but there was always the fact that it could be a trap and I didn’t want him to get involved in something messy when he just came back from his trip less than a week ago.“I’ll be going to the supermarket today,” Larissa informed me before we left the house, which was why I left Aldo with her. “I need to top up on some of my finished products.”When we arrived at the location the hacker led us to, we took a look at the house.
