"Your best friend happened" Nero pointed out behind her, where Mia is dancing like a loon.
Chloe's eyes widened at his words and she turned around to see Mia dancing like crazy.
Chloe immediately moved away from Nero, who looked amused. He is not at all bothered.
When Mia noticed that Chloe is awake, she shrieked and came to hug Chloe.
"What are you doing?" Chloe asked with confusion.
She didn't know when Mia came in and why she is dancing like that.
"I am so happy for you" Mia declared.
Chloe is still puzzled.
She looked at Nero for help, but he just shrugged his shoulders.
"Wait, why are you happy?" Chloe asked and pulled herself away from Mia.
Mia grinned widely.
"Do you know you ordered my brother to tone down the volume? He is making Jokes now. Can you believe that? Do you he came here two days before the party because you are here. Do you know that?" Mia is so excited, that she could barely
When Chloe entered her room, she found it bare. The suitcase she left just outside her closet is Missing as well. She checked inside the closet to see of she placed it there. But the closet is empty as well."What the hell? Where is my luggage?" She thought out loud.She Decided to check in Nero's room. Sure enough, there is a black sundress and matching lacy lingerie neatly placed on the bed."This man..." She sighed.She decided to use his bathroom as well. She found all of her toiletries spread on the washbasin.Chloe smiled as her heart made a funny flutter at the prospect of him taking so much care of her."My sweet Nero," she thought out loud.On the other hand, Mia and Nero sat in the living room. Nero sat in a single cushioned chair and Mia sat on the couch."You wanted to take her shopping to buy her a dress for the party right?" Mia asked his brother."Ya," Nero agreed.Mia sighed."But she won't
After hearing Nero's words the previous day, Alessandro was intrigued and curious. So he packed his bags and came to the island the next morning. But instead of going directly to the main house just like Nero suggested, he drove to Nero's villa. Chloe, Nero, and Mia were just planning to go to a nearby diner to have their breakfast. But just then the doorbell rang, alerting the arrival of someone. "I'll go see the door" Chloe volunteered. "I think it's just one of our maids. Mom must have sent some breakfast for us. But I told her not to send anything " Mia wondered out loud. When Chloe opened the door, the person who greeted her on the other side is a stranger. Even though there is a smile on his face, it doesn't reach his brown eyes, which carry darkness in its pools. Chloe took an instinctive step back and away from Alessandro. She understood he is here for Nero and he is also a Mafia man. His thick wavy curls might te
Nero, Chloe, Mia, and Alessandro sat in a small diner near the beach. The sounds of the waves crashing onto the shore is like a beautiful song of the land and water. Chloe sat in between Nero and Mia on the round table they occupied. While Alessandro sat beside Nero. "It's been so long since we came here" Alessandro murmured, looking around. They sat outside the diner, from where the beach is visible. "Yaa" Nero agreed. Chloe is looking around the place with interest. When they said a diner, she imagined a small cafe-type establishment. But to her surprise, nothing on this island is small. Everything is so stylish and extravagant. It's like all the rich people in the world live here and everything is constructed according to their convenience. Nero pushed a menu towards her. But before she could see what the Menu is, he murmured what he likes in here. "Their blueberry pancakes and waffles are the best. I usually
After Nero forced Chloe to take the red dress, Chloe helped Mia to pick out a couple of dresses for herself. After that, they went out for lunch in a local restaurant, which is famous for seafood. Nero carefully instructed their waiter not to bring any dish which has Shrimp, as Chloe is allergic to it. Chloe is surprised that he remembered it. After their lunch, they dropped Mia and Alessandro near the main house. "Won't you come inside brother? Mom would be happy to see you" Mia asked. "I already met Mom and dad yesterday evening before going to my villa" Nero confessed, which Made Mia very happy. "I will pick you guys at 7 in the evening," Nero said, reminding them of the barbecue Matteo is hosting. "Sure brother" Mia replied. "Sure man. Will sleep for a while. This jet lag is messing with me" Alesso complained. Nero nodded his head and left the main house. As she didn't sleep well last n
Like Mia promised, she introduced Chloe as her best friend to everyone. They are now looking around Matteo's house, where he is hosting the barbecue. The house is a two-story building, with 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The ground floor has a huge living area, where he moved the furniture to the walls to create much space for the guests. There is a small makeshift dance floor arranged to one side of the living area and the kitchen is filled with different kinds of liquors. Unlike Matteo said, this is not just a small barbecue party. Almost close to 100 young people can be seen around the house. The barbecue is set up in the huge open backyard, where Nero and Alessandro are talking to Matteo, who is flipping the patties for burgers. There are all kinds of meat and vegetables sizzling on the barbecue outside. A few people stopped Mia to talk to her and more than a few guys are eying them with interest. Mia is wearing a
Nero is distracted. After looking at Chloe's upset face, he is itching to go and comfort her. But then, he saw the bitchy woman coming their way. He gritted his teeth. He never liked if anyone flocked him like hen. He is not a man who flirts with a woman. If he needs to use them, he chooses one randomly and uses her until he is satisfied, before driving her out. But all that changed after Chloe came into his life. She is the only one whom he wants to touch now. She is the only woman he wants to feel beneath him. "Here they come" Alesso muttered, making Matteo smile uncomfortably. "Hello Matteo, thank you so much for inviting me," Charlotte said with a flirty grin. Matteo nodded his head feeling awkward. He knows why she is using him as an excuse. It's transparent for everyone to see. He looked at his boss discretely. Nero is looking at Chloe, who is trying to move away from them. She is not meeting his eyes, w
Chloe looked at the orange-colored drink Mia handed over to her. Its smell is strange. As a cocktail waitress in a pub, she could guess that this drink might have some kind of alcohol.Chloe never had Alcohol in her life. She is not about to start it now."You know I don't drink alcohol right?" She asked Mia.Mia knows that her best friend never drinks alcohol. She always wants to stay alert and protect herself if the need arises.But she doesn't have to worry about that now. No one would touch them as long as her brother is here. So Mia didn't find anything wrong in offering Chloe the drink.Moreover, Mia believes that Chloe has to live a little and enjoy her life."Ya, I know. It's fruit punch. It smells like it might have alcohol, but it doesn't" Mia lied to Chloe.Chloe believed her best friend, who doesn't have any reason to lie to her."Oh, alright" Chloe nodded her head and took a tentative sip from the glass.
As the music turned on, Chloe and Nero began to move to the slow music. Slowly people around them dispersed. A few of them began to dance with their partners and a few walked towards the kitchen to pick the drink of their choice. Chloe laid her head on his chest, rearranged the position of her arms, and now she wrapping them around his waist. Nero never liked to dance like this. One can say this is the first. Secretly Mia recorded everything so that she could show it to their mother, who would become happy. Chloe on the other hand began to feel sleepy. "I am sleepy" she mumbled against his chest. As the music is soft, he heard her over the music. He nodded his head and lead Chloe away from the dance floor. Alesso, Mia, and Matteo followed the couple. "I am taking Chloe home. Mia, shall I drop you near the main house or will you go back with Alesso?" Nero asked. That was how they came here. Nero and
