We started to descend from the van, and as I surveyed my surroundings, my gaze eventually landed on the front of a luxurious hotel.Bodyguards welcomed us again, accompanied by a woman who seemed to be around Mama's age. They greeted us, speaking in Italian, and Dad responded. Another group approached us, and I was taken aback when I recognized a familiar face. The person didn't glance at me and kept looking straight ahead. Four other men in black accompanied her, and when the woman spoke to them, the four positioned themselves beside me."They will be the ones who will guard you starting today, Isabella," she said, looking at the two men with colorful hair. Both of them were foreigners. "These two have been guarding you for a long time, while these two are new, but I'm sure they will watch over you well."I looked at one of the last men Dad pointed to. He gave me a faint smile, and my expression turned to surprise when I looked back at Dad, who now seemed

After my last class, I immediately decided to go home. Surprisingly, someone picked me up at the university. Not wanting to discuss it, I instructed the driver to drop me off just a few kilometers from the gate to avoid drawing attention to the expensive car.Upon reaching my apartment, Shena greeted me inside, engrossed in watching TV with a lineup of junk food on the center table."I thought you were going home?" I asked."Wow, you want me to leave already? I'm here to accompany you; I thought you might do something drastic, so I'm here to keep an eye on you," she retorted.Placing my belongings on the couch, I checked my small refrigerator. With Shena around, she had filled it for me. I chose a Vitamilk and drank it in one go."I already have bodyguards, Shena, and now you want to add yourself. I can't afford to pay you," I joked."You have bodyguards, but I haven't seen any here. Where are they guarding you?" Shena inquired.Sitting next to her, I grabbed some junk food while keep

All of my classmates celebrated finishing our last exam this semester, but I can't help but worry as days pass without Alex calling. Will our plans still push through? Time with him is running out.After the exam, I left the building exhausted. I decided to rest, having gone several nights with little sleep due to distracting thoughts of Alex. Luckily, I managed to answer the exam questions despite the distractions.I had to walk several kilometers before reaching my car, as my driver was a bit too far. Along the way, I stopped by street food stalls, checking my phone for messages, but none from Alex or even Shena. I wondered about Shena's exam.Suddenly, someone grabbed my arm forcefully in a dark alley. I resisted and managed to step on the person's foot with my heeled school shoes. He groaned in pain, and I quickly ran, heart pounding with fear."Wait!" he shouted, pursuing me, but I increased the distance. Unexpectedly, I bumped into someone and fell backward, feeling intense pain

We didn't stay there for long and went back to the hotel. However, he informed me that he had somewhere to go. The guy who was with us yesterday also picked him up.I sat in the living room with a frown. I attempted to turn on the television and watched cartoons, but my mind kept spinning around the events. I was too curious, unsure of how to address the issue between us. He hadn't mentioned anything, and I was itching to know.He stayed outside for several hours until it got dark, and I couldn't help but worry. Where could he have gone? Why didn't he even text me?I entered the bedroom, where our things were, to get my cellphone that was charging. He had asked me to download WhatsApp since that's how we were supposed to communicate, as our SIM cards weren't compatible here.I opened the application and sent him a message, but I heard a sound, so I looked towards the bed. I approached it and realized that it was Alex's phone.I was tempted by curiosity inside his phone but restrained

He quickly unhooked my bra, thanks to its thin fabric. He placed his palm on my left breast and started massaging it. He played with my nipple using his thumb while our kisses continued uninterrupted until we ran out of breath, and that's when he pulled away."Do you want here? Or in the shower?" he mischievously answered."I go anywhere. I can even go to the balcony to see those below," he raised his eyebrows. I slapped him. "Just kidding, I don't want us to get caught because we're live here.""Then—" I screamed as he lifted me and headed straight to the shower room. With no clothes on, my chest was against his face as he continued to lift me.When he finally put me inside the shower room, he quickly kissed me, pressing my back against the wall. He aggressively kissed me down to my neck while my hand reached for the shower, wetting our entire bodies.He's busy playing with my breasts while I'm gripping his hair, and I pulled it because he was entering his two fingers into my womanho
