CHAPTER 14 Lily's POV
>Lily on her date
I'm in the living room, sitting nervously while Andrea and William try to calm me down. Keyword: Try. No matter what they say, I still feel like my heart just drank 9 Red Bull.
Andrea spent a good 2 hours fixing me. I am wearing a white off shoulder blouse with flowers printed on it, dark jeans and my favorite ankle boots.
"You got this. If you want we can follow you guys?" William offered while massaging my shoulders.
"No. We will not follow them." Andrea rolled her eyes and held my hands. "You
CHAPTER 15 Lily's POVWarning: Tonsil Fencing and hickeys"I'm not mad Lily, I know that this is all too much and I will give you all the time you need." He said, giving me a gentle smile.His smile and words melted the anxiety and doubts coating my heart. I shook my head and patted the spot where he was sitting earlier. He looked confused but still sat in front of me again, our knees touching.I lowered my head and fiddled with my hands. "Th-this is all overwhelming for m-me but I t-trust you. I-I really do." I paused and looked at him, his blue eyes comforting me. "Y-you will not hurt me r-right?" I choked, my vision blurred from the tears falling from my eyes.He gently wipes my tears and cups my face. "My Angioletto. I will never hurt you, I will always protect and care for you. You already own me since the day you saved my life." He said, his eyes and voice filled with sincerity.I nodded my head. Tears
CHAPTER 16 Lily’s POVI woke up hugging something warm and soft. No, It’s not soft but it's not that hard either. What am I hugging? My hand gropes the thing, trying to figure out what it is. I feel something bumpy and trace my fingers on it. I heard a laugh and the thing vibrated.“My angioletto, What are you doing?” he chuckled, his voice low and raspy.I froze, I realized my head was laying on his chest and his right arm was wrapped around me. We were half spooning! And he woke up because I was groping him! His pecs and abs were well defined and was so satisfying to touch. I hid my face on his chest, knowing too well that I’m blushing from my dirty thoughts.“Don’t be shy. I don’t mind being touched by an angel.” He said while he ran his fingers to my bushy red hair.I lifted my head and saw his mesmerizing blue eyes looking at me. He kissed my forehead and hugged me tightly.
CHAPTER 17 Lily’s POVI saw William, Andrea, Salvy and Enzo waiting for me in the lobby. My therapist and I extended for an additional 2 hours, I did not expect that they would wait for me. I feel so tired yet so relieved after crying my heart out to her. She said I need to really feel the pain before I can move forward, I need to acknowledge that I was hurt and wounded before I can heal.Salvy rushed to me and hugged me. “Are you okay my angioletto? Do you need anything?” He whispered to me, he gently cleaned my tear stained face with his handkerchief and kissed my cheeks.I feel the familiar warmth on my face due to blushing. I gave him a smile and nodded. He patted my head and took my hand. I love the way he holds my hand, his hands are big and rough but it always gives me a sense of belongingness that I was always meant to be on his side.I rolled my eyes, the trio is having another weird argument. It’s Andrea
CHAPTER 18 Lily’s POVI yawned and Salvy moved away from me. Why is he moving away? Did I do something wrong? I think he wants to swim.“I’ll be your personal pillow my angioletto. I know you’re tired.” He winked and patted his thigh.I lie down and rest my head on his thigh, My heartbeat is so fast and loud. We look at each other’s eyes. His mesmerizing blue eyes looking at me with adoration. What did I do in my past or current life to deserve this? I reach out for his face and poke his cheeks.“Why are you poking me my angioletto?” he asked while smiling.“Just want to make sure you’re real” I whisper.He leaned closer to me and kissed my nose. “Real and alive” he smirks.“Thank you ahmm for not asking any questions about why I’m in therapy and waiting for me earlier.” I traced my fingers from the side of his eyebrow to h
CHAPTER 19 Lily’s POVAndrea and William had been fighting about pizza being a salad for four hours now. I’m not sure if I should be impress because they are smart enough to prolong this debate or pity them for being dumb enough to fight about it.I decided to ignore them and checked my phone, I still haven’t received any message from him today. I sigh and look at the clock. Salvy left five days ago to do some underground dealings, he usually messages me during this time. I badly want to message him but I know he is busy.I accidentally threw my phone at William when it rang, I really don’t like phone calls but Salvy prefers calling me.William caught the phone before it landed on his face. “What the fck? Not the face Lily Fiore.” He said.He checks the ringing phone. “Saliva is calling you, want me to answer?” he asked.I stood up and quickly grabbed my phone. I went to the ba
CHAPTER 20 Lily’s POV“I told you it’s not about the size it’s about the shape and firmness” Andrea said while poking my slightly exposed lemons.They asked me to wear a beautiful floral white dress. It’s a summer dress that’s a bit revealing but they said I look nice in it. I hate wearing V neck cut clothes because I have a lemon sized chest, I got nothing to be proud about.
CHAPTER 21 Lily’s POVWarning: French Kiss and ViolenceMy knees gave up and Salvy tightened his grip on my waist to prevent me from falling. I looked at his eyes, trying to see if he was lying but his blue eyes were filled with sincerity and anticipation.(Heavenly by Cigarettes After Sex played through the speakers.)H-he asked me to be his girlfriend. Me? A sh!tty anxious broken girl. My tears roll down my face, He really wants me. Am I dreaming? Is this a prank?“Hey. Did I scare you? Are you okay?” He softly asked. He cups my face and wipes my tears using his thumb.“A-re you sure? I m-mean you can h-have anyone. Why w-would you want s-someone like me?” I choked out“Why not? You’re the best thing that ever happened to me. You’re the person I want, I like, I need and I crave.” He kissed my nose and smiled charmingly at me.“B-but
CHAPTER 22 Lily’s POVHmm the smell of aftershave and citrus came to my senses as soon as I woke up, it’s Salvy’s scent. Oh God I got shot! I sat up from the bed and touched my shoulder, wait? It doesn't hurt. I peeked through the bandage, I just got a small wound. Salvy covered for me! Is he okay? I looked around the room. Wow this room is big, It’s a very eeer sensual room. The bed is so big with white bedsheet and black duvet and pillows. The ceiling is white contrasting the black matte walls and the curtains on the big windows are dark red. There was also this huge chandelier in the middle of the room. I noticed a paper on the bedside table.(Good Morning my angioletto, I need to do some errands but I will be back as soon as possible. Your clothes and shoes are already on the walk in closet, It’s on the left side. Your toiletries are also in the bathroom. The fridge near the sofa has all the snacks you like.)Wh
