EPILOGUE Vincezo Moreno They were removing her off life support today. Jaw clenched, straight went my gaze. At infinity. Thunder droned at a distance. Clouds, gray, were laden with rain. It'd fallen all night. I'd taken an early morning flight, fortunately, and so, had been able to make it here. I didn't know if I should be comforted that nature empathized with me. Mourning along with me. Or I should break more, knowing that Rina had been to be next Luna, the reason why the skies mourned her imminent exit. I gave out heavy, fervent sobs, fishing out some tissue from the armrest. I wept into it. No. Grief hadn't left. It never would. As long as I lived, this was what I'd be: a grieving man. Wiping my nose, I set out to the pearl white walls of Andrea Filemone International Hospital. My fingers curved around the tiny velvety box. I held back the tears till I got to ICU: Room 4 and shut the door behind. The heart monitor beeped. My Rina still laid like a corpse on the bed, not d
Vincenzo MorenoTwist it in any way you like, call them whatever you wanted but I stood on my decision. All women were only good for one thing- sleeping with them."Come here, puta," I growled, fisting my erection, my eyes not for one second leaving the tempting shape of her bared chest or the glistening hair nestled between her thighs.The she-wolf grinned, a coy smile on her face as she walked towards me, her steps seductive. Now within only a hairsbreadth of me, she trailed a finger down my chest to my raging arousal."Let me take care of this for you," she whispered, softly nibbling my ear as her hand grazed my erection.In a swift motion, I clutched her neck, rubbing my nose against her rose scented skin, my voice gruff as I grunted, "Are you sure you can handle me?""Yes, alpha." There was a mischievous glint in her eyes as she said this, then she bent down and took my 9 inches hard-on into her mouth.For a second, the cynic in me thought she wouldn't be able to swallow my full
Rina ZanteFourty-five minutes ago"We're here," the cab driver said loudly, his scratchy voice waking me up in the process."Oh," I muttered, rubbing my eyes to remove the sleep from them. "Grazie."The journey to the Alpha's house hadn't been a breezy one, rather it was quite tiring considering the fact that we lived in the slums and on the opposite side of town."Rina," my mother called out, her tone tired as well. "Please get out the bags while I pay the taxi fare.""Yes, mama." I got out of the car and trudged to the back to get out our bags from its trunk.The suitcases we used to travel had nothing much in them, just a few meager clothes which was virtually next to nothing. But it was all we had in this life.I brought out the bags, kept them by the sidewalks and waited for my mom, my eyes roving around. We had parked directly in front of the Alpha's home, a great giant wall and gate guarding the house within. A few security men parolled around, their questioning eyes every now
Rina ZanteThirty minutes agoWe stood waiting for the worker, as we studied the place we were in. The interior of the house was even more beautiful. Intricate arches, mosaic tiles and precious artifacts adorned the waiting room. All in all, I couldn't help the joy that bubbled through me at the thought of working here. Even if it was as a maid. Maybe things were looking up finally.A woman in a checkered apron approached us, her black hair tied in a bun. She appeared to be in her early thirties. "Buona giornata. Welcome to Alpha Moreno's residence. I am Lucia the head maid, and I will show you to your room, follow me."As we ambled up the stairs, Lucia informed us that when we reached our room, she was going to give us an hour to settle down, freshen up and change into our uniforms, then another maid would be sent to our room to give us a proper tour of the mansion, after which we would be sent to her office to be assigned our places of duty.We nodded along absentmindedly to everyth
Rina ZanteTwenty-five minutes agoFrom the hallway, Mia walked us down the stairs into an empty space. By our right was the living room which overlooked the spacious lobby. My eyes slid across, taking in the elephant tusks that rimmed the center table and the life-sized wolf stationed beside the fireplace.Shivers ran down my spine. The good kind, though.Mia turned to us, her swift motion snatched the breath out of my lungs. Oh, Cavolo."This is where we assemble every morning for the disbursement of duties. 4am, you are here. If you aren't, Signora Lucia puts your name down. Understood?"Mamma nodded; I didn't. I didn't think I liked this Mia girl, but then what could I do? She was my senior. Therefore, I had to ignore my bad opinion of her and do as she said."This way. We don't have all day." She marched forward. The room next to the empty space was the dining. I couldn't help but notice how inexpensive it looked, given its moderate size and the fact that there weren't any forms
Rina ZanteTwenty-five minutes agoI jammed my eyes shut, hoping that perhaps it was a dream. There should be no way what I'd seen was real. But upon slipping my eyes open, I was met with the same thing. A naked couple and littered around them were their clothes. My gaze accidently fell on the guy's penis, and I coughed out an apology."I'm s-s-sorry, so sorry for barging in. I was looking for my bracelet and I thought it-it- would be in here... I'm so sorry, so very s-s-sorry."I didn't look up to know what their reaction was. My goal was to pick up my bracelet which I'd let go off on sighting this gory scene, and hoot off. Luckily, I spotted it lying some feet away. I grabbed it and scampered out, while stuttering, "I will be going now."With swift steps, I climbed the stairs and got to my room. Mamma looked up from her bag, and said, "Did you find it?"I nodded. Despite my shaken self I added, "I must have dropped while we were touring.""Told you so." She turned to the bag and beg
Vincenzo MorenoI flexed my fingers and sat upright, placing myself in a better position for ease of typing. Okay, here we go....The blank monitor stared at me, or rather, it sneered at me. Nothing seemed to be forthcoming. Nothing! Should be about an hour now since I grabbed my laptop. An hour had passed since I took my seat, ready to begin my term paper, but there had been zero progress. Niente!Shutting my eyes, I cracked my neck—summoning up my mojo. No need to give up. I knew I got this. And so, I reopened my eyes and looked straight at the keyboard. Uno, due, via!The words flowed for some time, before they eluded me. Frustrated, I tapped on backspace and tried again:The local news agency is such that accounts for the globalisation...Just like that, I lost it. The words faded into thin air. Burning with annoyance, I shut the laptop and buried My face in my palm. Fuck!The reason for my inefficiency wasn't lost to me. The reason was quite stupid that I banged my palm on the de
RINAI pulled the kitchen door open and stepped inside. Down came the bucket on the floor; I plunged the mop inside. Pulling it out, I splatted it on the floor and began moping, my countenance, sullen.The only thing playing in my mind was how I would tell Mammà I wanted out. Yes, I no longer cared we had a comfortable place to stay, didn't care we could afford to get three square meals. I just wanted to go home. Back to Baiadicenere. Back to my peaceful neighbourhood. At least, there won't be any macho guy staring daggers at me and threatening heaven and earth. Granted, bullying was a usual phenomenon to me, but never ever had I been this insulted, and for what exactly? Simply because I'd said the truth?I scoffed. Unbelievable. Rich people were nasty. They were…I stopped myself. No, this wasn't me. As much as Luna's son had pushed me to the wall, I couldn't speak ill of the entire family. After all, the Alpha and Luna hadn't done me bad. It was just their obnoxious son. Why does h
