I called after him but he didn't bother looking back at me or stopping.I stared at his retreating figure till he disappeared down the hall and I sighed.'Now you've pissed him off' my subconscious reprimanded."But then again, it’s not like I was wrong-" I scoffed only to realize I was talking to myself.Huffing, I went back to the pool area to get my laptop but I didn't find it. I asked all the guards and staff if they had seen it and all of them gave me same answer, 'NO'I kept searching and searching till my mind drifted to that one human being who was most likely having it.'Anthony Santoro’Annoyed as to why he would walk out on me earlier and still have the guts to take my things, I marched to his room but it was empty so I went to the next possible place he could be, his office.Wh

It doesn’t matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions. ~Jim Rohn Anthony I hated chasing people, I hadn’t done so in the longest time, it made me feel like I was some toddler or dog playing fetch the stick, I didn’t want to chase her around but I needed to get the video Charlotte was talking about, I couldn’t have the people in the mafia world seeing it, they wouldn't see me the same again, hell they wouldn't even fear or give me respect like before and to make matters worse, my little brother, cousins and friends would taunt me for the rest of my life. Just the thought of being the laughing stock at every family gathering drove me insane and there was no way in hell I was going to let that happen.Focusing on catching Charlotte who I had to admit was a fast runner than I had perceived her to be, she slipped but held onto the kitchen

Weak desires bring weak results, just a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat. ~Napoleon Hill Charlotte"You 3 really are useless." I groaned looking at the men seated in their barstools each busy on his phone."You offered to cook no one forced you to do it." Anthony answered without even looking at me."We could have ordered instead you know." Julio added."You are just as much an asshole as these bastards." I snarled at him and he simply shrugged before turning back to his phone."They are both fine. Yes, fortunately it was just false alarm." Luis spoke on the phone. "You are on speaker now." He said before removing his phone from his ear and placed it on the island."Anthony, Charlotte." Alessandro's called through the speaker."Hey!"

True success is overcoming the fear of being unsuccessful. ~Paul SweeneyAnthony"Where were you?" Charlotte huffed angrily walking up to me."Last I checked, I told you not to wait up." I responded and went into the bathroom taking a nice cold shower.When I got out, I went into my closet and put on my pyjamas bottoms before going back into the room that was lit by the moonlight emanating from the open curtains."Who is she?" Charlotte sighed."I beg your pardon?" I turned to face her."Her, who is she, what's her name?"

Build a dream and the dream will build you. ~Robert H.

I tried to push him off but that only seemed to piss him off more, he grabbed my thighs placing my legs around his waist with one hand while the other wrapped around my throat. His actions made my lady bits clench and my panties dampen.I was so caught up with his that was slightly chocking me that I missed him untucking my shirt from my pants until he bit hard on my lower lip as though asking for entrance.
