Night Out.

GIOVANNA I turned towards the door, my chest drumming hard. It was that so called Claudia. I was back to a place of torture, and torment again, but I wasn't going to allow her do anything to me. “I thought you were leaving for good. I heard you guys have only been married for two weeks, and want a divorce.” She expressed, pausing. Her expression was dark. Her lips then twisted in a dark smile. “You don't know what you're doing anymore. I know you don't love him, but why you choose to stay is crazy.”There was silence, and then it became even more silent. I swallowed, not wanting to say anything that could reveal the truth because she was an alarm anxiously waiting to go off. “Why do you always want to be part of this?” I asked with raised brows. She was always looking for a way to get into my hair and I wasn't planning on letting that happen. “Do you know how angered I am by you being with him? If you don't love him then maybe you should go away. I am carrying his child, and he d

The Competition.

MARKOShe was an extremely hard nut to crack, and I wondered why she was still acting despite all I tried to do to make her warm up to me. I needed her to get more information about her family, and to do that, she needed to be free with me. Unfortunately, I didn't think about that when I started being mean to her, and now I had to make sure that things didn't get out of hand. As I was lost in thought, my index finger in my jaw, I noticed how happy he was. He was trying to ensure that things are still really in place.I didn't know how to handle everything, but I knew I was going to figure something out. I needed a way to chisel myself into her heart. The knock on the door caused me to pull my face towards the door. My chest drummed, and I got a little confused with everything. I shook my head to return back to reality.“Come in…” I said, and exhaled the moment I saw Piero walking in. He seemed to have a serious look, something that was a custom to him already. “Good morning boss,

I Want To Know You.

GIOVANNAI had been sitting in my room for a long time, and I felt bored. However, what bugged me was the fact that he was serious about having dinner with me. Well I knew Marko, and I knew he wouldn't spend time with someone who wasn't of value to him, but I was wondering why he wanted to spend time with me to have dinner. “What else? Maybe this was the time to also get what I would most likely use against him.” “So I guess I'm going to dinner with a monster…” I explained with a lowered shoulder. I didn't want to but I felt it would be nice to explore the city, and make sense of everything. Maybe try to have fun to relieve the burden I was having here.I stood to my feet, rushing towards the place. He had asked me to meet him in his study if I changed my mind, and that was exactly what I was going to do now. As I moved through the hallway, I calculated what to say. I would have accepted when he said time at first, but now I had to face the fact that I was going to talk to him fac

Don't Dare To Propose.

GIOVANNA I reached my room, and sat down, waiting for the time to go by. I was worried that the dinner date might not be exactly what I was expecting, but he shocked me when he arrived at the door dressed in a black suit. “Oh, you're here early…” I expressed with shock on my face. I was really stunned to see him. He stared at me, using his eyes to size me up before placing his hands in his pocket, leaning into the door post. “Yes. I wanted to make sure you see how serious I was about the day.”I furrowed my brows, and then sighed. “You know what? I'll be back. I have to dress well.” He nodded, waving his hands and then wearing that smirk which I hated the most.I walked away from there with my my heart drumming, and as soon as I soughted it out. I was ready to step out of there.By the time I opened the door, I noticed he was still standing there. “Are you ready?” I asked and there were no words. I stared at him, my chest still drumming. I needed to be sure we weren't going to

I Want A Job.

GIOVANNA“Scared?” I scoffed. “You wish. I am not the same woman you got married to.” He didn't stop, but something he said got to me. “Are you trying to say that I caused you to change?” There were no words, but I could tell the happiness that oozed it of him.“No you didn't. I just…” i trailed when I watched him pull out a seat for me, but it made me give him a confused gaze. “Are you trying to get me to fall in love with you or something?” I asked with my eyes glaring at him,but he shrugged his shoulders. As always, his smirk didn't fade, and he seemed to have a lot to say. “So what else are you waiting for, aren't you going to seat?” I asked with raised brows, and there was silence. He was watching me with raised brows. He was staring at me, waiting for me to take a seat. “Well, I don't think there's anything for you to worry about, besides, we are no longer married.” “I don't say we are…” he expressed, and then gestured for me to take a seat. I didn't want to argue anymor

Never Have, Never Will.

GIOVANNAI was still shocked Marko gave me a job, but i guess it was supposed to be, or maybe there was something else he had on mind. “When do I start?” I asked to put a little bit of pressure. For all I know he might have said this to get me to stop bugging him. “Tomorrow. I'll ask Piero to handle it, and you can follow me to the office, but you'll have ride me with.” I swallowed. I didn't know what plans he had, but I was prepared to do whatever it took to get a job in his place of work. I needed to leave his house before anything get worse than expected.That was the soul purpose to getting the job. To bring him down so I could get a bit of peace. “So what do you say?” He asked, and I nodded, wearing a smile. He didn't even need to raise his head to tell I was smiling, and he didn't waste time complimenting on it. “You look lovely smiling. Infact, this is the first time you're smiling without being forced. You sure are expected for this job.” I smirked. “Yes, yes I am…” sp

You Just Dug Your Own Grave.

MARKO.I was in my room, trying to take off my shirt when the door flung open. My back was turned towards the door, but I knew who exactly that was. “What do you want Claudia?” I asked with raised brows. I knew her, and I knew what she was looking for. “Why can't you leave me alone?”She scoffed, and I heard the door slowly closing, but I knew she was still In the room. “Did I mean nothing to you, huh?” She asked, but I proceeded to remove my tie, throwing it on the bed. “Answer me!” As she yelled, I kept shut, my face tightened with raw emotions of anger. However, I didn't say anything. I went on to remove the buttons on he white shirt I was wearing.Once she saw How quiet I turned, she immediately started to panic. She noticed I wasn't interested in her anymore, and the Claudia I knew wanted a way to pin me down. “I'm carrying your baby, I love you!” She was breathing hard, and I could tell she was getting ready to cry. Her lips trembled, and she moved towards where I was, grab

What Am I Risking?

GIOVANNAI twirled on the bed, growing as I tried to get comfortable. I didn't waste time dosing off last night, but I also didn't want to answer the soft knock that landed on my door. “What time is it?" He asked with his hands crossed over his chest, and only then did I realize that somehow he had entered the room. Thankfully, I was putting to enough clothing to cover me, but that didn't stop me from screaming, and pulling the duvet up to my chest. “Why would you even come in here, how did you pull that off, what if I was nak–”"I knew you wouldn't take that risk, not in my place. You don't trust me that much,” he explained, the tension on his face slowly fading away. I yawned, chewing my mouth afterwards, but I had so many questions. Why was he here to early, and… I proceeded to ask him rather than bugging myself with the thought. “Why are you even here, huh?" I threw him my first question, rubbing my eyes gently. I was still very sleepy which caused me to be confused. “What a

I'm Married...or maybe not.

Giovanna.I had never been so shocked about his words. “Well then, I guess we have to begin work, right?" He asked with a smirk on his face, one that made me nod. I guess I wasn't comfortable with him being around, but I had to work here now. This was the situation he put me in. “Come with me..” he gestured to me, moving back to his seat. Once he had pulled the chair, he sat down. He lowered his head, and made sure to pull out the compartment where he kept the files. I stood there, both palms folded in each other. My hands were behind my back, and I wondered what he wanted me to do for him. “So you're the boss’ wife?" He asked, and I parted my lips. I wanted to say no, but the truth remained that we were still living together, and it would be crazy to tell anyone about the divorce now. "Hmm, yes I am sir,” I explained, but he pulled out a bunch of documents, and landed it on the table. Due to the impact, dust flew in the air, and I swallowed. I was stunned but remained calm. “So

What Have I Done?

Giovanna.I nodded, feeling stiff, but I didn't let Alessandro know. He was now so quiet, his eyes on his boss, and with the awkward silence, he cleared his throat. “Um, I'll be leaving now, I still have a lot of work to attend to," he expressed, and I nodded. However, Marko did say anything. He stared at Alessandro for a while, and then gave a small nod as a sign to let him go. Alessandro hurried away, making sure not to look back, and I tried to do the same, but he put his hand in the way, making me stop in my tracks. Some of the coffee spilled to the ground, a hiss leaving my lips. “This is for my boss, and now you've made me spill it.” "Why?” He smirked, and then leaned in. "You just asked me to lunch, and you don't expect me to ask you questions?” He asked, then pulled in closer. "I thought we were supposed to be divorced, huh?” Marko questioned, making me roll my eyes. "Yes we are, but then it was only for a cover up. I didn't expect you to actually swoop on and accept the
