Michael peeked into the dining area while standing behind the wall. His mom was busy in the kitchen and his father was busy with his phone. Sarah turned around to get a bowl, and that is when she noticed her son peeping into the dining area.She raised her brows and questioned, “What is it, Mikey?” That made Jonathan look up from his phone.“Woah... That is a lot of attention,” Michael said walking to the dining table.“Who else to give,

Michael had landed in Italy last night and had immediately checked into his room that he had book. It was his first time in Italy and he could barely speak Italian language. He did not know how to find Riley here in the city of Rome. Sure, he knew that she lives in a fortress in the middle of the city. He wondered why would the Don build a fortress in the middle of the city. As per Michael's knowledge, powerful dons lived outside the city in a forest like an area. But Alessandro Bianchi seemed to be a different kind of don.Michael woke up the next day morning and got ready quickly. He rushed down to the reception to enquire about breakfast and stuff. He was in the elevator, staring at Riley’s address in one hand and her picture on his phone in another hand.He exited the elevator and barely had walked to the lounge, someone bumped into him, making his phone fall down. That, someone, looked like he was a little older than Michael and he had a quite built body and seemed

Mike did not stop himself from hugging Riley tighter and place a kiss on her forehead. Then he leaned back a little and spoke, “Won’t you invite me in?”She chuckled out of embarrassment, “Come.” She took his hand and walked inside the fortress.“I had called you earlier in the morning,” he said as they walked inside.“I know. And I am sorry I did not pick up your call. I was in a difficult situation,” she reasoned.“I wonder what has kept you so busy to not even pick my call,” he raised his brows.“I will let you know that later. How is Jordan?”“She is good.”“Mr. Marcel?”“You mean Adrian or Aaron?” she chuckled at that. It was no wonder that Michael had grown close to Aaron.“Senior and junior, both,” she replied.“They are both good. Aaron has become my parents' grandson and is being spoiled a lot. And I am being blamed for his bluntness,”Riley laughed, “I would not be surprised if he will be an imprint of you w

After Michael left her house, Riley found herself I her room, thinking what to do. She had no idea why her father gave her the chance to decide her life. She simply could not think straight at this moment. Who was she supposed to choose? Michael? Vincenzo?She got up from the bed and walked towards the door when she heard someone knocking at it. She was nervous for a reason. What would she do if Vincenzo was at the other side of door? What would she talk to him?She slowly opened the door and peeked outside and left out am enormous sigh after seeing Rafaele at the door. She pulled him inside and closed the door.“Where you expecting someone else?” Rafaele asked taking a seat on the bed. She walked back to the bed and took a seat next to him.“I was just nervous. I did not know what to do if it was Vincenzo,” she replied. Rafale and Vincenzo had been best of friends since childhood. Rafaele could not be more happy than he was when he got to know that Vincenzo

After pushing Riley out of his room, Michael slumped down holding onto his chest. He felt immense pain all of a sudden. He was not expecting what she said today. He knew there was something between Riley and Vincenzo but he was definitely not expecting to be rejected like this. Why did she even give him false hope if she were to reject him like this? She was the first girl he had ever liked romantically. She was his first love.He got up and moved to his bed where his phone was. He called his pilot and informed him that he has to fly back to US and scheduled a flight back to home. He had no idea what he would be telling to everyone back at home. What would he say to Jordan? And what about his mom? She had encouraged him to go after his heart. But his heart here, broke itself. What was he supposed to do in life now? Was he that incapable to make a girl choose him? He began to doubt himself for no valid reasons.His father had sent him for a solo vacation and now he was go
