Zoya's POV
I ran out of my room. I was able to see downstairs. There was a man on the floor with blood pooled around his head. Renzo stood there with a gun in his hand. What kind of person is he? He just killed a person and is standing there in a calm manner. My body started shaking when I saw the sight in front of me. He slowly turned around and found me staring at the dead person. He gave me an evil smirk. I quickly turned around and walked into my room. He is a monster, he kills people and doesn't feel guilty for it.
I sat down in the chair near the vanity. I have been here only for an hour and I have already seen a dead person, who was shot by my husband. (Eww. Calling him my husband is disgusting. ) . I try to calm myself and try to forget the incident because if I were to live here my whole life, I should get used to it. It's a part of the package if you marry a person from the mafia. And I can't change my fate, I just have to accept it.
Half an hour later
"Madam. Dinner is ready." The maid says. I remembered the rules of the house, so I quickly got up straightened my clothes and went downstairs. The floor was cleaned up and it looked new without a trace of blood in it. There were a few more people in the room other than him and the maids. An elderly lady stood up and came near me. "You look so pretty my dear," she said. "Thank you...um," I was not sure about her name or about how to address her. I heard her chuckle. "I am his mom dear, you can either call me mom or Maria. This is his father and that is his brother" she says pointing towards two men. I look at them and pass a small polite smile.
"Sit down my dear" Mom said. I looked at the table and found that they had left a seat beside him empty for me to sit. Internally groaning I go and sit near him.
We have our dinner in silence. I feel him looking at me. Being the idiot I am, turned my head in his direction and there he was looking at me...
Renzo's POVI am surprised by her character. I would never expect a girl who is not completely into the mafia to not scream her heart out after seeing a dead person on the floor. I do know that her parents told her that they belonged to the mafia only a few days before the marriage. I do wonder where she got all that braveness to not become a screaming mess.She comes down for dinner wearing oversized pyjamas. It's another surprise because when girls see me they are ready to walk around me without clothes but she has got it all covered up. Before she reached here, her clothes and belongings were brought by my men and the maids arranged them in the closet. If her belongings were not brought here, I would have asked someone to buy her clothes and trust me all my female friends are behind tiny clothes, which would have eventually led to her wearing short clothes in front of me. I wonder how she looks without those coverings. Ahh.. I should stop myself from getting these thoughts. She is
Zoya's POVIt's been four days since I came here and today is Sunday and I want to go to church. If you are wondering my mom is a Christian, so I have gotten used to going to church on Sunday.I get up from the bed, take a bath and go downstairs. I find him by the dining room reading a newspaper and sipping his coffee.I go near him. Ohh...oh, how am I supposed to address him?I try to get a "Renzo" out of my mouth but it comes out in a meek tone. I hope he heard it and yes he did hear it and turned towards me. "Yes. What do you need?". Why can't this person at least say a good morning?"Umm..today is Sunday, can I go to church?" I ask him."Church?....""Yes church," I tell him. He calls for the maid."When does the holy mass start?" he asks her. "By nine sir" the maid replies and goes back to carry on with whatever she was doing."You can go to the church," he says and gets back to reading the newspaper. I thank him and go to my room to get ready.Renzo's POVAfter an hour...I feel
Zoya's POVAhhh........I just hate this. I have stayed inside my room since I came here except while having breakfast, lunch, dinner, going to church and having small chats with his mom. She is an amazing person and I have got a liking for her. I was starting to hate it. That's when a thought came to my mind.I ran to the drawer where my things. I hope that I have packed it. Yes... I have packed it. It's a pen drive with songs. (I know that it's a bit old-fashioned to store songs in pen drives but I like it and I can't find my phone anywhere. I should remember to ask Renzo to get me a phone.)There's a stereo system in my room so I insert the pen drive and turn it on. After checking that the system was working. I went to the closet to change my attire because you know I just like to completely immerse myself in it.Once the song starts playing, I begin to dance.After a few minutes, the song comes to an end and I finish my dance.When I turn off the stereo player and turn back, I see
Renzo's POVI returned home from the office. As I walked inside I heard some sound coming from Zoya's room but I was not able to understand it. I walked towards her room and opened the door with the spare key I had. There I found her dancing but it was a different form of dance. I have never seen anything like that in my entire life. The way her face showed few expressions and the way her body moved, all felt in accordance to the song.When she turned around after turning off the audio system and found me standing there, her body froze. She would have thought to herself about how careless she is for not locking the door (we know the reason but let's just pretend that we don't know it🤫)."Wow. That was something." I say. "Thank you," she says back without looking at me. I move closer to her. Her breathing became quick and short. Hmm... I like how her body responds to me. "I a..m rea..lly sorry. I got bored that's why I was dancing" she starts blabbering. Before she could realize I pul
Zoya's POVRenzo has been avoiding me for the past few days. I think he is regretting the kiss we shared but I surely am not regretting it(you can call me needy if you want ) because it was my first kiss and it felt amazing. By 5 pm I went downstairs. I saw the maids cleaning the kitchen and Renzo's mom was watching over them. I felt guilty for staying up in my room most of the time without helping my mother-in-law but you can't blame me because she had told me to leave all the things under her control. I went over to her. " Mom can I cook today please" I whined like a baby. " Wow from where did you suddenly get this thought" she exclaimed. "Nothing. Just thought that I could cook for everyone." I say. "Ok. What materials would you require to cook the food? Do you want the maid's help." she started bombarding me with questions. " No I don't want the help of the maids and here is the list of the items I need". I say giving her a list. "Oh.. you have come prepared, you are a bit naught
Renzo's POVShe is so cute while being surprised I am sure she didn't understand how I came to know that she cooked the food. It's just that I came home early and found her cooking and that was the best food I have ever had in my life.________________________After a few daysI am in the living room scrolling through my phone. When I feel the presence of people in the room. I lift my head and see my mom along with Zoya.Zoya was behind Mom and she was fidgeting with her fingers. She didn't meet my eyes. "Um... Renzo Zoya has something to ask you", my mom starts speaking. "Want do you want?" I ask her but she still doesn't look at me. I wait for a minute and when she doesn't speak up I walk towards her and she starts walking backwards when she feels that I am very close to her. At last her legs come into contact with the table and she stops moving. I wait for her to answer. "I don't have all day, you know," I say to her. She slowly starts speaking. "I would like to continue my studies
Zoya's POVI have been crying for I don't know how long. I felt a presence in my room, I looked up and found Renzo standing there with a confused face. I quickly looked down because I didn't want to see his eyes. After all, I know that if I did I would cry even more. He came and sat near me and turned me to look at himself. When I didn't look at him he placed a finger under my chin and lifted my face to look at him. As soon as I saw his face tears started flowing down from my eyes without any obstruction. He pulls me to himself and asks me what was wrong. I try to control my crying and slowly start speaking.Before a few hoursAfter the class got over the students started leaving the class one by one. Chris and Renzo's brother were not to be seen anywhere. As I was about to leave the class the professor asked me to stay behind. I stayed in my seat.After a few minutes, he came towards me after closing the doors. " You know your project was nice but I am wondering whether to give you m
Renzo's POVI look at the beautiful woman sleeping in my arms. I am feeling so sorry for her but I am also feeling rage towards that professor. How dare he touch my women. I also felt guilty for her because I was the one who called Chris to find my brother to discuss the Spanish mafia's moves.After she was completely asleep I made her lay on the bed and went out of the room to make a phone call. "Get the professor who was with Zoya during the last class," I tell to the person on the other side. I get a reply "Yes sir".I go back to the room and lay beside her pulling her towards me. I need my rest because tomorrow is going to be a big day. Slowly I drift off to sleep. Next morningI wake up to movement near me. I open my eyes and see Zoya trying to push my hand away from her." Good morning " I say in a raspy tone. She quickly withdraws her hand. "Good morning " she slowly whispers.Once I lift my hand she gets up from the bed and walks towards the bathroom to freshen up. As I lay on
