Coraline

Bright lights pressed against my closed eyelids. Sharp and invasive.

I moaned from the discomfort, forcing my eyes open to escape from the pain.

The room I was in looked sterile and unfamiliar, and for a blank moment, I struggled to remember how I got here.

It all came rushing back when I caught sight of the IV line I was hooked up to and I couldn’t help letting out a small groan of frustration.

“Ah, è sveglia.”

(Ah, she’s awake.)

I turned my head at the unfamiliar voice and there was

  • The Billionaire’s Cook   CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED-AND-THIRTY-EIGHT

    Coraline“You can look now.” I said to Alessio and he turned around, running his gaze over me like he would be able to guess the number of coins I had tossed from that.He eventually gave up and asked, “Do you want to take a few pictures before we go watch the sunset?”Nodding in delight, I gave him my phone and went closer to the fountain, smiling then making a peace sign close to my face.The crowd around thickened fast so we left a few minutes later, walking with our fingers laced together through a street with ocher-toned buildings and ivy-clad facades.The atmosphere around was vibrant and lively, with artisans, street performers and vendors in open-air markets dotted everywhere.At my request, he got us matching leather bracelets, mine blue and his black.As he fastened it around my wrist, it struck me that he’d picked my favorite color. He hadn’t forgotten that tiny detail about me and the realization hit deep in my chest, causing my heart to flutter and a tiny smile to lift th

    CoralineWe got to the booth just as the couple there were collecting their printed pictures and leaving.“Hello! Beautiful couple.” The photographer grinned at us, showing slightly uneven teeth as he waved us towards the marked spot.“Ten euros, each picture. I print it right away and you take it with you,” he said in clipped but clear English, his accent unfamiliar.Alessio nodded for him to start and he stepped back behind his tripod, adjusting stuff on his camera.“I pose you or you pose yourselves?” He looked from behind the lens as Alessio’s hand slid to my waist and drew me to himself.“We’re good.” Alessio replied, turning to face me fully, then lifting my hands and placing them around his neck.I smiled and pretended my heart wasn’t beating as fast as a war drum in my chest as two clicks of the camera went off.“Wowww, perfecto! Now give me something more relaxed, more playful!”Forcing myself to release myself to the moment, I inhaled deeply and grabbed one of Alessio’s hand

    CoralineI still couldn’t believe the last half hour happened.That I had held Alessio in my arms and spoken words to soothe his pain. Even more baffling was the fact that he had let me. He didn’t push me away and even seemed to be grateful I had done it.His mood was far much better now and I could go as far as saying he even looked excited about something.“Still not going to tell me anything?” I asked him, looking from the road towards his smiling profile.We had been driving for about ten minutes now and I still had no clue what his plan was.“Here’s our first stop so you can lay your curiosity to rest for a minute,” he replied as he backed into a parking space.I looked out the window to see a designer boutique in front of us.“Clothes shopping?” I asked him, raising a brow in question.“For you. We’ve got to change you out of those flour-stained ones you’re wearing.”I looked down at my shirt and jeans and realized he was unfortunately right.He told me to wait in my seat and ro

    AlessioI was in such deep shit.This whole fake girlfriend idea was backfiring so hard on me.My family loved Coraline. Of course, that was expected. She was perfect for me.What wasn’t expected was me realizing the same thing.That night, when she looked me in the eyes and told me she wanted to leave earlier than we had planned, it felt like the world around me was ending.Somewhere along the way, I’d gotten so entangled with her that I couldn’t go a full moment without the thought of her stuck in my head.At first, I thought it was about the sex. Sex with her was mind-blowing. Out of this world. Being inside her pussy was an experience I would never be able to replicate with another woman.But I hadn’t gotten off for more than a week now and the feelings in my chest only seemed to be growing stronger.Seeing her dancing, laughing, interacting with the people I held close to my heart was doing something irreversible to the organ.I watched her a lot, stared at her when she thought I

    CoralineBeatrice and the cook with his assistants helped me set out all the ingredients when I told them what I was planning to make.Before long, the kitchen table was filled with everything I needed while they all stood to the side, watching me like I was about to perform magic.Martina was seated on the other side of the table looking excited.I smiled at her and rolled up the sleeves of the casual top I had changed into along with jeans.I was tying up my hair when Chiara and Tommy sauntered in, the latter holding up his phone like he was recording.“Thought you left yesterday.” I said to Chiara, surprised she was still around.She shrugged. “Decided to stay back for a few more days and I’m glad I did. Are you really making mac and cheese? That’s like my comfort food.”“Really?”She nodded. “The boxed version here just doesn’t hit the same. Homemade for me all the way.”“Well you’re in luck then because that’s what I’m making.” I told her with a grin. I would have to make a large

    CoralineSlowly closing the door behind me, I watched as tears gathered in Sofía’s eyes with her hands wringing together in front of her.Of course, I knew what she wanted to apologize for but I still waited to hear her say it.“I’m so sorry, I tried to kiss Alessio yesterday.” She gave a broken hiccup as her tears spilled onto her cheeks. “I wasn’t thinking and I’m ashamed of my actions. After he rejected me, I felt really terrible. I’m sure I’d have felt even worse if we had kissed because you don’t deserve that. So I’m glad he did what he did. I just wanted to confess to you because I’m so regretful and I can only hope that you eventually forgive me.”She was full-on crying now and she looked so pathetic that I couldn’t even hold on to any hurt feelings I might have felt.She had loved Alessio ever since her childhood days so I could sympathize with her a bit because now it seemed she had lost him for good. It still didn’t excuse her actions but I wasn’t Alessio's real girlfriend t

    CoralineBenny’s frame was large and intimidating when he stepped in front of us, effectively blocking our path of escape.I straightened my back and erased all traces of misplaced guilt from my expression because I was doing what was needed; the right thing for my well-being.“Yes. We’re leaving.”

    AlessioThe moment Ash explained the situation to me, I went into my office and contacted my attorney.They had been sending her messages, threatening to forcefully take Coraline hostage if she failed to meet their deadline. That was why she had sent Coraline off to stay at a friend’s place for a w

    CoralineI woke up weak and disoriented.A glass of water was pushed to my lips before I could even properly take in my surroundings.“Here. Drink this first.” Ash’s voice instructed from my right. She tilted the glass and I drank from it, the cool water heavenly as it trickled down my dry throat.

    Alessio“She’s breathing, but barely.” Mr. Penney commented after withdrawing his fingers from an unconscious Coraline’s neck. I had immediately rushed her to the car downstairs when she passed out in front of me. Ash had followed, frantic with worry and on the verge of a nervous breakdown.When I
