Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Rossi Brothers II — Adriano: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Adriano. In the dimly lit room, I took a drag from my cigar and slowly exhaled the white smoke. I couldn’t remember how long I had been sitting there, drinking and smoking, but it felt incredibly relaxing. As I sat there, the thought of going to the bathroom and scrubbing my skin over and over crossed my mind repeatedly. I wouldn't stop until I was sure I was completely clean—until I could erase the feeling of those hands from my body. I couldn’t shake the thought that I needed to be free from them. I took another drag and ran my hand through my hair. I had tried countless times to stop thinking about that day, but to no avail. Seeing your mother getting tortured and you finding yourself in a much worse situation fuck up with your mind. In the dark room, my phone lit up on the table. Without bothering to check who it was, I knew it was either Kyle or Luciano. Those two just didn’t know when to leave me the fuck alone. I understood that Luc cared for me and was worried about what I

Daisy.He kept staring at me without saying a word, and surprisingly, I didn’t feel uncomfortable under his gaze. It was as if he was trying to intimidate me into doing what he wanted. A simple ‘thank you’ would have sufficed, but I wasn’t going to thank him after he made the situation escalate from zero to a hundred.The body between us was a constant reminder that I should prepare for what was to come. The large man Mr. Handsome had just killed was close to the boss; I suspected he was his second-in-command. Although if he wasn’t that close to the boss, I knew that killing one of his men was a foolish decision.His eyebrows raised, and just when I thought he was going to say something, he pulled his left hand from his pocket, revealing a small box. I watched in a mix of anger and amusement as he lit a cigarette, took a few small puffs, then tilted his head back to blow the white smoke out.I didn’t know how to react, so I just stared at him in disbelief. He did nothing but smoke and

Daisy. She looked perfect to me, so I couldn’t understand why Jess would say that unless she was jealous.Yeah, she was jealous of her. “And do you think that?” Her head snapped up as if she couldn’t believe my question. “I… I don’t,” she said, her voice sharper than before. That was all I needed. “Fine. Get ready; I will be out in two minutes.” Her eyes lit up as she blinked, staring at me in disbelief like she didn't believe I would agree so easily. “You… you agree to this?” she asked, still fiddling with her hands. I hadn’t done this before, but I saw no crime in trying. There’s always a first time. “Yes, now go get ready.” She stared at me in awe for a moment before sending a pretty smile my way and rushing to her table. I knew why she hadn’t gone to Josh; doing that would only bring her more trouble from Jess. And since she wasn’t bold enough to face Jess yet, she was smart to choose another partner. “Lily, you’re up.” I looked at the girl whose name I still didn’t kno

Daisy. "I knew you sluts wouldn't be able—" The words were barely out of his mouth when my hand connected with his jaw. Whew, that felt good. I could feel my blood boiling with excitement as I waited for him to react; men like him would do anything to avoid seeming weak. I heard someone gasp behind me, but I didn’t look. I kept my eyes fixed on the man who thought that because he was rich, he had the privilege to touch women without their consent. His eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets, as he held his cheek. Slowly, he turned his head to look at me, and I couldn’t help but smirk when I saw blood trailing down his nose. “Did… did you just hit me?” he asked, still clutching his cheek. He was being dramatic. That punch wouldn’t even hurt a baby, yet he was acting like I had just destroyed his life. “You fucking—” he stepped toward me, his fist raised, but my hand landed on his face again before he could come any closer. He’s too slow. I hated that he

Daisy. I still can’t believe I was staring at the name—there’s no way someone would have known about this, right? There’s no way this could be a prank. He’s the only one I called by this name, which means he was here.Was he perhaps the one I saw earlier? Was I really not hallucinating when I saw him?“Are you paying attention to what I’m saying, Lily?” Josh's voice snapped me out of my thoughts.“What did you say?” I asked.“I asked if you wanted to take the job. Remember, this offer is more than what those bastards are willing to pay.” He was trying to persuade me, but I fell back into deep thought.“Look, I know this is an odd name, but what do you have to lose? He isn’t going to hurt you. There will be guards outside who will be on alert. They’ll come in to stop anything before it happens, so I can assure you there’s nothing to worry about,” he reassured me.I let out a sigh.****The next thing I know, I found myself stepping into the VIP section again, but this time I was atte
