*A Little Secret🙊. There will be more scenes of Vincenzo and Lily from now. I hope you'd be just as excited as I am.**Lily's P.O.V*I messed up. I knew it. I shouldn't have, yet I wanted to get some facts straight into his head even when I wasn't in the position to do so.Again, I ruined something else for Vincenzo. The deal he wanted to sign with them was already ruined by me. He tried to help me escape, but I got caught and made matters worse.I sighed for the umpteenth time as I wiped the counter continuously, again and again. It was sparkling clean but I needed to get my mind off things even though the incident happened an hour ago.“Leave now, Lily.” Was all he said to me after saying some words in Italian to the pot-bellied man who I had learned his name to be Di Benedetto. Obviously, he asked me to leave so he could clear up my mess – so, he could bear the consequences for them all. The man who I thought would only bring me trouble was the same person I'd only brought nothin

I do not appreciate him showing me this side of him, cause, I might end up falling for his gentleness forgetting that he was the devil I should avoid.*********The silence, his constant glances, and heavy awkward tension mixing with the low hum of the car engine made my heart lulled in an agitated beatJust so I could avoid the sight and constant glances of the breathtaking devil seated in an enclosed space beside me, I scooted towards the car window and leaned my head on the windscreen, looking at everything which eventually went by in a blur.I ended up getting a ride from Vincenzo even after the piles of arguments we had. I gave up. I mean, I knew he wouldn't let me go home unless he gave me a ride. I was already shaking on my feet after a stressful day, and the thought of standing there any longer wasn't near pleasing. So—I gave in. Just as he wished.“On the other hand, I want you to willingly give in too. You interest me, Lily, so I will be patient with you.”I groaned mentall

At a moment like this, I always fall back to Selena who was always ready for me—who gives In to my demand whenever I needed it. I had put a call through to her a moment ago before driving over to her apartment. If she had a man in her apartment then she should kick him out before I get there.I didn't give a fuck who she was messing with, as long as she remained loyal whenever I needed her to be.I rang the doorbell of her apartment, and it didn't take her a second to fling the door open while grinning from ear to ear. She was obviously in anticipation of this moment—a moment when I return hopelessly to her bed.I reached for her lips, claiming them in mine. She didn't resist, she has never resisted as she returned the kiss with as much force as I had used, wrapping her hands around my neck while running her hands through my hair.I savored her lips hungrily, a craving I knew was meant for someone else. A replacement for my yearnings was the perfect example to explain whatever I was

*Vincenzo Ace.*I threw the burnt-out cigarette on the ashtray, as I leaned into my office desk, my searing gaze roaming at the screen of my laptop before I slammed it shut.She's here, which means Lily will be here too. I knew the game she was about to play, and I was in for that game with her. If there was more reason why Selena had been alive up till this day, that reason should be now.Using her as a means to get the reaction I needed from Lily wasn't exactly what I should be doing with my life right now, especially when I had a busy schedule—countless deals to strike and different men who didn't work according to my wish, piled up for me to torture. Unfortunately, I had lost myself and my sanity the first day I set my eyes on Lily and I was admitting to it. It's not like I could hide it anymore. My obsession with Lily was getting me crazy—was making me do things I never would have imagined that I could do.The door crept open as she walked in, her eyes not leaving mine, her hips
