Lahat ng Kabanata ng Lilith Addiction(A mafia book) : Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

~VITTORIA~The sun rays from the window which crept into the kitchen every morning were starting to make me look forward to drinking coffee on the kitchen counter every morning. And I couldn't lie, I loved it every single time. I had even bought two plants a week earlier and positioned them next to the window and so far, they had been doing quite well for themselves. In addition to Roman always remembering to water them each time. Something I always seemed to forget."You know, you really don't have to come with me to Ontario just for that," I told Roman the next morning as he dropped a coffee mug in front of me after taking a quick sip from it. "I'd just go and be back in a quick while.""Thank you," I added.He dropped a plate of waffles which he had just finished making in front of me too, dropped with his coffee as well before taking a seat in front of me. "I wouldn't want you to miss my presence so much, baby doll." He responded in a casual tone, winking at me.I rolled my eyes a

~ROMAN~"I can say I'm sorry I brought up mum," North said and it was taking every amount of self-control in me to stop me from hitting him."You love being his little pet, don't you?" I asked him and I saw him roll his eyes. I hated it when he was like this. And by this, I meant thoughtless and fucking annoying. "I'm just obeying him. I'm seeing reasons with him." North replied with a little shrug. As if that was the most sane thing to do with father.Cleto and Diego were stood in a corner listening and trying their hardest not to interfere, as they knew best. The opened bottles of alcohol and wine were left untouched on the meeting table because as soon as we had tried to drink together, this fool had decided it was the best time to piss me off. "It's something simple. If we take over the Bellucci territory and vote them out of their power rank with the support of the other families, their routes, casinos, clubs... casinos lost especially are going to be ours and-"Before he could

~ VITTORIA ~"Shit," I said turning to look at Roman. He held my hand immediately and I saw him take out a gun with his other hand."It's going to be okay. I'm not letting anything happen to you." He assured me and I could see it in his eyes that he meant what he said which made me trust him more. Our car sped up while Roman and Nicola started to shoot at where the car which was attacking was.The whole thing was becoming more fierce and the ride was becoming bumpy. In less than 2 minutes, the car behind us which had Roman and Uncle Quinto's men crashed into a pole making a halt. "Don't stop driving, Gio!" Roman commanded. "Vittoria babydoll, are you okay?" He asked scanning from my hair down to my body and I nodded swiftly. I hadn't noticed how tight I had clutched to him or the reason why I had because I mean I was Vittoria, the Lilith, not a girl who couldn't take care of herself. But here I was anyway, acting like I hadn't earned that nickname myself. Two more of our cars fill

~VITTORIA ~ "Roman, are you awake," I said, dropping the water immediately and going over to him. His nose wrinkled as he pressed his lips in a fine line. He was obviously still in pain while trying to find his balance and a position that wouldn't hurt him as he sat. Cleto and North wore worried expressions as they stopped right beside the bed, staring at him and Nicola shut the door behind them quietly. "Roman.. How do you feel?" I asked him again. He gave me a little smile, "I'm fine, babydoll. Never been better." He turned to face North and a glare replaced the smile which he had. North shifted uncomfortably on his feet and rubbed his neck awkwardly, "Uh--miss Vittoria called. I couldn't sit at home knowing you were in an accident." "Get the fu*k out of here," Roman ordered, his voice still raspy from sleep all while being commanding at the same time. My mind went back to the time when we were at their house and they were in an argument. It had just dawned on me that they h

VITTORIAA wave of emotion washed over me, and I stared at him, the intense moment we had just shared still lingering between us. He had told me this before, and here he was, uttering the same words again. I didn’t think I had openly ever admitted it to myself or to him either but I actually didn’t despise him any longer. If anything, I had been sharing passionate moments with him more, allowing him to be clingy around me and more, the guilt I felt towards Isabelle had almost disappeared. I was still there because I still had to find who had caused her to leave this world, but I was almost invisible in Roman’s presence because I was slowly learning not to channel my anger toward him. It was like I was finally putting myself first over everything, over the whole guilt and over being angry and resenting him just because of his last name.His eyes watched me passionately and softly as he held me close, making my heart ache with tenderness which I didn’t know I had for him this much. It w
