ELENA

I looked behind me, feeling a slight chill down my spine.

"Is there something wrong?" Samuel asked, looking in the direction I was looking at.

I shook my head, blinking and turning back to continue towards where Luca had parked his car. He had called and asked me to meet him in front of his restaurant. I wasn't surprised though, since his new forte was removing me from work at any time of the say.

This time though, I welcomed it. Anything but the humiliation I had gone through in that office with my father.

The tests, came back negative. All three of them.

I didn't understand why, but I felt disappointed too, but not for the same reasons Alberto was.

Luca was leaning on the car, his features alert. "Alberto." he nodded, reaching out to shake my father's hand firmly.

"Luca." My father replied.

I cast my gaze down, waiting for them to say whatever it is they wanted to say to each other, but my name was mentioned. I looked up to see Luca casting me a concerned look. "Get in the car

  • The Don’s Reluctant Obsession   Chapter 44

    LUCAI couldn't get her out of my mind.I had taken her to my bedroom, and made love over again. Rosetta had brought us a late lunch in the bedroom, after which we had made love again. This time, it had been slow and long. I just didn't want to stop.The only reason I had even left the room was because I knew she was going to be sore, and needed rest.Seeing her in my bed.What had I been thinking taking her there? Now the only place I had to myself that had no trace of her, was now filled with memories of our love making.I poured myself a cup of whiskey, not bothering with ice cubes and just gulped the liquid down.I had never ever, slept with a woman in my bed. I prefered to sleep alone. Yet, after we lay spent, I had drifted into sleep. Not once, in those few hours, had I been jolted awake by the dreams that usually tormented me. In fact, if my phone hadn't vibrated contniously, I would have still been entangled with her, in my bed.I had lingered for a few minutes, just watching

    LUCAI squeezed the steering wheel of the car tightly seething silently. I had told Hakeem that I was just strolling out, just so that he would not insist on following me, or be suspiscious and alert either Alessandro or Dante of my whereabout.The message had been clear this time.A text message to my phone.Someone was playing with me, and I was going to find out who.We had relaxed after the run in with those men in the club, but I still hadn't believed it was over.He wanted to meet, that was fine.I honked at a car that was turning too slowly in the bend I needed to enter, impatient as hell. When he finally moved, I flipped him a finger and continued on my way.It was a small house. A cottage to be honest.I looked at the adress on my phone's gps again, to make sure I was in the right place.It showed that I was in the right place.I parked the car, opposite the house, on the other side of the road, then brought out my gun, makign sure it was fully loaded, before sticking it in th

    ELENA"You have been fiddling with that since." Valeria's voice dragged me out of my thoughts, and when her words registered, I snatched my hand from my necklace and managed a small smile.I had finally given in and worn my mum's necklace. And I hadn't been able to stop touching it.Maybe it was the closest I ever felt to her. "It's just a habit." It wasn't a lie. Even before, I had always played with the gem on it. If it weren't a real stone, I'm sure I would have worn it out, with so much friction."Well, it's beatiful." she said, eyeing the necklace with a small frown etched on her face."Thank you. It was my mum's." I plopped into the couch next to her and picked up a throw pillow, wedging it between my legs.Valeria was hardly ever around, and even when she was, I usually wasn't aware. That is, until she came to drag me out of my bedroom. Like today.I had decided not to go to the office, much to Alberto's chagrin, and Luca's excitement. The truth was, I was feeling a bit under

    LUCAThe room was almost as silent as a grave yard, thirty minutes after I had assembled my brothers and told them of Fabio.I had intentionally left Valeria out, because I knew it would be easier to tell my sweet forgiving sister, than to tell the two men in front of me.Dante finally spoke first. "So you are telling me, that that father of yours, not only played half a role in our lives, but was able to go start up another family, with another woman?" he was angry, and rightfully so.Dante never got along very well with Martinelli, but he never bumped heads with him. He rather prefered to stay aloof.Alessandro on the other hand, followed our father like a sheep, although he did voice out his opinions when necessary.As for me...."I don't know about starting a whole family, because according to Fabio and his mother, I don''t think Martinelli was present in their lives." I had spoken to the woman who was kind enough to answer soem questions. She had told me, that she was only doing

    ELENA"I'm really sorry for the inconvenience." Dorathy Stevenson said with an apologetic look on her face. In her hands were numerous company files.I waved my hand. "Next time just make sure things are in order, to avoid pulling me out of the house like that." I replied, not really offended, just tired.When the door had opened, I hadn't been expecting to see my assistant panting like she had run a marathon. Although I won't be suprised she if she had.None of my father's shipments had gotten the approval to pass. We had had to act really fast.Now though, I was tired as hell and just needed to go home.Who knew that a last minute decision to wear snakers, was gonna save my legs from a lot of pain.I dismissed her and began sorting through the documents in my office. I hadn't had the time to do so, and had told Dorathy not to worry about them, preferring to do them myself.Nothing beat arranging your own document and knowing where you kept what.I was head deep in a box, when I felt

    ELENAThe papers I was carrying weighed more than they were supposed to.Donavan hadn't been lying.It was true. All of it.My phone rang, shattering the silence in the car.Samuel looked at me through the rearview mirror when I didn't bother answering it and let it ring two more times.I eyed him, then turned my face to the car window, focusing on the passing buildings instead. I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone. Especially after what I had just found out.I hadn't been able to get through to Alberto, making me wonder where he had kept his phone."Are you alright, ma'am?" Samuel asked, making me look back to see him giving me a worried look through the rearview mirror."Since when did we start caring for each other, Samuel?" My tone was bored and filled with sarcasm.We never had discussions. It was always silent in the car. Sometimes, too silent.Samuel's eyes showed amusement and he peeled his gaze away, back to the road. "That's basically my job ma'am." His tone matched mine.

    LUCA"Mind your business, Hakeem." I hissed, pushignback the passenger seat of my car so I could stretch my long legs. I didn't even want to ask why the chair was pushed forward in the first place because I knew I wasn't going to be pleased with the answer.We were currently parked outside of a casino, waiting for our informant to give us the go ahead on whether we should go in or not.According to him, the Casino was packed with buyers, and what other way to get things running, than playing a game or two with them.But there was a particular person I needed to see."Well, you have been looking at that phone for the past three hours, and I can tell you would rather be with her, then here." Hakeem said in a sing-song voice.Dante snorted form where he sat at the backseat."Shut up." I hated when he decided to talk. I preferred him professional to the t, as he actually mostly was. But sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he behaved differently. Like now."I mean, he's not lying." Dant

    UNKNOWN "I fucking told you to let it be. You will put us in trouble!" My brother's voice was too loud, even from the phone. I grunted, looking around the lonely street to see if anyone was in sight. It was a run down street, with hardly any soul walking through that wasn't a criminal or a drug addict. Even homeless people stayed away. Yet it is where I currently found myself in. I looked down at my injured hand, tying the cloth around the bullet grazing tighter, so as not to get any blood on the floor. It was more than a graze, and to think I was shot by my own man. Although it was a mistake. "You don't expect me to sit down and let Luca take my business deal from me." I bellowed. "I have worked hard... you and me both.. for the past few months, and next thing I see is his mole trying to sabotage me. No way in hell was I going to sit and let things slide." "Well you didn't have to fucking turn the casino into a bloodbath! Now we are banned, and if word gets around th

    ELENAI ran to the bathroom.I didn't care that Hakeem was accopanying me. Or that there were a few women all heading in that direction.My feet could not take me there quick enough, and the moment I got in, I slammed the door shut, rushing into a private stall.Only when I had that locked too, did I breathe fine.Luca was going to be the death of me.I hadn't for one second, imagined that he would pull the move he did, and at that particular moment.How the hell had my orgasm synced with the closing of the auction?I twisted my head, pulling the back of my dress so I could see if I had stained it. For such amount of wetness between my legs, I was surprised the dress was dry, save for on tiny dot that I willed to dry.I pulled out a handkerchief from my bag and wiped between my legs, biting on my bottom lip hard, to keep from moaning like I desperately wanted to.The material slid smoothly, showing just how wet and slippery I was down there.I finished and contemplated for a minute wh

    LUCAHe wasn't here.At least he hadn't entered the auditorium yet.I could see the tension as some of the men sat on edge, the hopes, that Ricardo Moretti showed up, and they somehow got on his good side.If only they knew."You ordered this?" I asked, picking up the bottle of wine and noting the label. My eyes widened at what I saw.Elena looked at me, her eyes shining in the almost darkened room. "What? You don't lik it?"What were the odds that she would order my most disliked brand of wine?I turned in Alessandro's direction, and was met by just shadows, and not a good view of my brother. But I could tell he was looking at me. In fact, I could almost see the smirk on his lips."Alessandro ordered these, right?"She looked genuinely worried. "Uhmm..yeah."I shook my head and set it down. "Idiot. We'll wait till those waitresses make another round,and then we would order for something else.""Going for twenty thousand dollars?" the auctioneer continued, and I was almost bored. Even

    ELENAI allowed Luca lead me inside the building. His hand on the small of my back was warm.This time around, I hadn't worn anything excessively provocative. My hair had been let loose, just the way he liked it, and I was wearing a black silk dress that hugged me in all the right places. It had a neckline that was modrately dipped, but the back... the back was completely bare.I had seen Luca's eye grow dark s night when I had stepped out of the room, and he had stammered a bit, telling me we were late."We should have taken a few more minutes." Luca whispered, just as we walked through the entrance. His fingers grazed my bare back, making me jolt as more warmth spread. "You said we were late already." I retorted, not exactly understanding why he needed a few minutes. "Did you forget something?" I had overhead them talk about some items they wanted to display at the auction. Had he forgotten that?"Yes." he shifted closer to my ears. "I wanted to fuck you."My cheeks flamed.At this

    LUCA“Are you really okay with me moving into the house? I mean, I could stay with mum and still work fine.” Fabio, for the first time since I met him a few days ago, actually looked scared. The young man whom had faced me with fierceness was gone, and replaced with one who looked unsure.I smiled, reaching for his shoulder and patting it a few times. “Trust me, I’ll be more at ease, knowing you are under my roof, than having you out there. Besides, the less trouble you bring to your mum, the better.” I told him with all honesty, and placed my hand back on the steering wheel.I was still not completely comfortable with bringing him in, but I had agreed with Alessandro and Dante. Fabio was smart. I wasn’t sure about his threat to side with the opposite, but I couldn’t risk it.“Can you shoot a gun, Fabio?” I asked as we slowed down for the traffic light.He smirked arrogantly. “Yes.” There was no hesitation in his tone.I wondered what Martinelli would think if he saw his son now.The

    ELENAI knew I shouldn't have been coming out here, but no one had exactly banned me from going to any part of the house.Luca, Dante, and Alessandro had all gone out after lunch, with Luca saying they had somewhere to be. Even Valeria had disappeared as usual. I could not forget the lunch, even if I wanted to.All three siblings of his had taken turns interpretting our every move as something way more than it was. I was thankful though, that they had stopped with the whole me being in love with Luca comment, immediately he entered the kitchen.I didn't even want to know what his reaction to such would have been.I pushed open the gates of that led to the east wing, and frowned at the building that looked back at me.Because my bedroom window wasn't facing this part of the house, I had no view of this place. The only view I would have had, was from the kitchen and library. But the trees covered them, and it was build in a way you couldn't see it anyway.I was shocked at how identical

    LUCAThe phone pressed to my ear was hot as fuck, but I couldn't give a shit. It wasn't as hot as I was feeling inside from all the anger inside of me."Alberto, you have absolutely now right to talk to me like that. You were in the middle of that fight and I am yet to know why. So don't come at me with your bloody reverse psychology because it would not work."Fabio, had pulled a copy of the CCTV footage from the casino, and just moments before the chaos happened and the CCTV was trashed, I could see Alberto walk in.The crazy part was, I had been parked right in front with both, and hadn't seen anything.Yet here he was, blaming me for putting his daughter in danger."What I do and where I go is none of your business, son. And I am very well in the right to hold you accountable for my daughter. She is a fucking asset to me, whether she is your wife or not!" his words struck me real deep but I wasn't even. having it right now."No. You have done business with the Spaniards before. Yo

    ELENAA small gasp left my lips, my chest rising and falling. The pain from him pinching my nipple caused my whole body to hum.How we had gone from warm to cold, to hot now, was beyond me.And of course my body always responded accordingly.I mean, how could I not? When he literally stood there in nothing but boxer briefs that did nothing to hide the very obvious outline of his cock.Luca spun me around, bringing my bum to press firmly on his hardness. He raised my hands over my head, and guided me to the wall where he laid my palms flat. "Don't bring them down, no matter what." He murmured gruffly."I nodded helplessly, quickly getting overcome by lust. He could command me to lift a car now, and I would have done so. "Okay." I answered.Luca spanked me, hard. "Okay... what?" He asked, lifting up my night wear to expost my bum to the cool air.I racked my brain, trying to understand what he meant, and shuddered when I remembered his words earlier. "Yes, Sir." I quickly offered, and w

    ELENAI woke up to sunlight.And the feel of a very warm hard body behind me.I blinked, confused as hell.Where was I? And why did it smell lie delicious spicy male colgne?I jerked as my instincts kicked in, trying to move from the body, but was kept in place by big arms that wrapped around me like a cacoon. Huh?"You are finally awake?" Luca's gruff baritone vibrated down the length of my back. I gasped at the sound, wondering why I was in this position. And it felt so good."What happened? Why am I here?" I was enjoying his warmth too much, and all thoughts of leaving escaped my mind as he pulled me even closer."You passed out." he murmured close to my ears, "We rushed you to the hospital. You woke up on the way, then passed out again. Anyway, I decided to bring you home, since you can get better care here." I shut my eyes tight, remembering what had happened. The man... Samuel... me pulling the trigger, fully intending to kill him. I had never shot at a person before. I had bee

    MATTEO I wanted to chase after that idiot, but refrained from doing so, and instead, focused on lifting a passed out Elena into my arms. My heart thudded violently,and the thought of anything happening to her, felt like someone was ripping me to shreds. Heck just knowing she had been in danger, had me shaking. When I heard the first gun shot, I had lost the ability to breathe. "Fuck!" Hakeem hissed, trying to wrap samuel's lower abdomen where he had been shot. He was losing a lot of blood, and we needed to get to the hospital and quick. I picked Elena's gun, and got into the car, refusing to let her out of my arms. That was where she belonged. Hakeem helped a still conscious Samuel into the passenger's seat of the car, before starting the engine. I shot a quick message so the area could be cleaned, and the vehicle towed away. "I'm sorry boss, but the car wouldn't start." His voice was slurred, from how weak he was getting. Even his eyes barely stayed open. "It's okay, Samuel.
