Kera POVI wake up to groaning from somewhere in the room. Sitting up, I try to locate where the annoying sound is coming from. I take note that the sun is already up and that the bathroom door is closed. Alessio is not next to me so he is in there. I think."Alessio. Are you okay?" I call from the bed and I hear him curse lowly. "Yeah. I'm okay." He says, his voice sounding breathy. I furrow my brows and get out of the bed to check up on him. "Can I come in?" I ask and receive no reply before he gives me another breathy yes. I open the door only to have my breath caught in my throat. "Jesus! What happened?" I ask immediately kneeling down beside him. There is a huge cut above his eyebrow and he has blood all over his face and chest. "I wanted to take a piss but I felt dizzy and tripped. I hit my head against the basin." He explains slowly as I try to stop the bleeding. "How are you not dead right now?" I joke and he chuckles only to hiss in pain. "Aless, the blood isn't stoppin

Kera POVI wake up feeling refreshed. Alessio has his arm draped over my waist as he sleeps. It feels to wake up in my own bed again. I'm always over at his house that I sometimes forget that I have one of my own.Don't act like you don't like it.I rub my eyes and get up walking into the bathroom to relieve myself. I finish and wash my hands and face before just rinsing my mouth with water. I'm going to eat so there is no point in brushing my teeth now.I walk down stairs and I start making breakfast for all of us. Denver comes down and I nod at him. We are not morning people. "Coffee?" I ask and he grunts, meaning yes. I get four cups ready and pour the steaming hot coffee in one to give to him. He adds two sugars and starts drinking. "Why are you up so early?" I ask since he doesn't work til the sun is down. "I have to go in since, Alessio is recovering, and fix the security detail. On of the guys resigned and now I have to work a new way around or hire somebody else." He sa

Alessio's POV3 days later ( Wednesday-Chrismas Day)"I'm sure she'll like it. Now stop acting crazy." I say pulling my overreacting girlfriend into a quick kiss."But what if she doesn't? What if she hates it? Oh my god, what if she tells you to break up with me because I'm bad at giving gifts?" She says and I roll my eyes. "You're being dumb. She loves you already so just man up." I tell her and drag her out of the elevator.We make our way to my grandmother's hospital room and knock before entering. She turns her head to look at us. "Kera! How wonderful to see you again." Ma says, lighting up. Kera rushes over her with the gift tucked behind her back. "Hi, Ma. Merry Christmas. How have you been?" Kera asks, genuinely wanting to know."Could've been better. They served that merda pudding yesterday. I'm starting to think these assholes don't have taste buds" She says rolling her eyes and Kera giggles. "Don't worry. I've got you covered." She says pulling out two pudding cups from

Kera POV"Two weeks later." I smooth down the silky red dress that clings to my every curve as I wait for Alessio to call me down.We're going to some kind of event for one of his charities. He asked me to go with him because he didn't want to sit there making small talk with people he had no interest in and he wants people to know that we are together. My phone rings and I grab it. Answering it, I hear the voice that I've been longing to hear all day. "Baby, come down." He says, his husky voice doing things to my body. "Okay." I put my black strap heels on and open the slit wider so I can walk comfortably. The dress had thin straps over my shoulders and it is tight around my chest and waist. It subtly flows out with a high slit on one side of the dress. I have some simple make-up on. The deep red contrasts perfectly with my milky skin.I walk out of the room and to the stairwell. Aless looks up and he smirks at me. I smile shyly with a small blush as I walk down the stairs.

Alessio's POVI don't want to leave her but I have to. Twelve crates of my guns have suddenly disappeared and it was traced to Novokuznetsk, Russia. I'm going down there to sort it out myself because it was not even supposed to be anywhere near Russian soil. These fuckers think I have time for shit like this when I actually don't. I need to be home with my beautiful girlfriend. I walk down the stairs and she is sitting there with her knees up to her chest under the soft blanket. I place the towel and pillow that I got from the room onto the couch and drop onto my stomach. "You got the oil?" She asks and I point to the glass coffee table. She moves to sit on my ass as she pours the oil onto my back. Her small hands start to work on the knots perfectly. I groan in relief when she works on my neck and shoulders. "How did I get so lucky with you?" She suddenly asks and I chuckle. "I got lucky with you, baby." "Thank you but really though. You are so fucking fit and sexy. You are a
