Vox X Valentino Novels & Stories

"Bella... Please listen to me... You need to hear the truth..." Valentino pleaded. He was looking weak than before. Dark circles around eyes, dull and defeated face. He was looking exhausted. "There is something which Alex doesn't want you to know..." He said and she frowned. "I have a proof..."

He took the blindfold off, and Valerie's jaw dropped in shock. In front of her was the latest 'Bugatti La Voiture Noire' car. Ethan dangled the key in front of her. Clasping her palm over her mouth, Valerie felt her legs go jelly. “This isn't a dream, right?”

The mask fitted her face perfectly, only showcasing her eyes. "Why do I need to wear this?" Valentina asked, confused. "Because you need to be protected." Xavier answered cryptically and held her hand in a tight grasp. Their fingers intertwined with each other, fitted so perfectly. They both hopped inside the car. Valentina noticed Xavier making some calls and texting someone. He then gave her his all attention pushing his phone away. Valentina averted her eyes as she was caught stealing secret glances at him. She looked out of the window, the cold breeze hitting her face and the scenery looked breathtaking. She never came to Country A. She was unaware of the beauty it held.

“Have a seat, Leilah.” Colby assisted me in the seat in front of this Blake guy while he took the seat beside him. There were folders on the table and Blake is drinking wine. “Leilah, this is my adoptive brother, Blake Valentino. Blake, this is my biological sister, Leilah Rivera.” Colby introduced us. Blake reached out his hand. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Rivera.” His voice is sultry and wispy. It sounded like sea waves crashing inside my ears.

She settled opposite me and devour on her food while I can't help but steal glance of her as I eat. "Stop staring or I might lose my appetite"She muttered clearly. "So Sorry"I smiled Inwardly. After eating I stood up and walked out to the garage. I jumped in one of my cars and Valentina did that same. "You have a lot of cars-"she mentioned. "Sure I do"I grab the car key from one of my guard and I drive off my house and set to the airport. "Why do you should to drive yourself when there are people to do that for you?"She asks.

The man was smiling ear to ear, flaunting his perfect set of teeth and dimples on both cheeks. “Thanks,” she smiled casually. Even she disliked him. She was not that rude to show him a nasty attitude. For some reason, she could not understand that she hated him so much. Especially when smiling, it appeared he had a lot of naughty thoughts in mind. The man was Valentino. He was introduced to her by Rab during a gun show a few months ago. He was the owner of a famous gun shop and accessories in the province. He was very persistent in courting her in the past two months. Even though she repeatedly informed him that she was already taken, he wouldn’t believe her.

Meeting the front entrance and moving past the automatic glass doors, a car had been waiting around the circular lot. Bringing me to a halt, Alex walked ahead and opened the passenger door. Pushing myself up from the wheelchair, he guided me into the car and closed the door beside me. Watching him through the tinted window, he paid one of the valets and walked around the front of the vehicle, making his way into the driver's seat. "You ready to come live with me?" He teased, turning on the car. "Completely ecstatic," I joked back, knowing very well that I was more than happy to be staying with him.

I said all in one breath, too embarrassed to spend another moment with them. …. I made up an excuse to come home earlier than scheduled but there is some truth in my excuse as I did become a little sleepy with all the pampering. However, all my sleep vanished, my eyes popping out of their sockets as we went up the long, curvy driveway, bringing me closer and closer to the gorgeous, shiny Lamborghini Veneno, just like Xander except that this one was white in color compared to his charcoal grey one and it also had a big red velvet bow on it.

A breath slipped through his lips and he shifted, ears red, darting his gaze away, gulping slightly. Valentino slid into the car, casting him a glance. The redness in his ears deepened and he turned in his seat, until he could no longer see him through his peripheral vision. Once they were inside, the man shot him another glance. He could feel its burn. The driver's door opened with a click again and Valentino exited the vehicle, rounding the vehicle in long, heavy strides to passenger's side. He pulled the door handle, pulled the door open, and crouched down slightly.

“Tell me that is not what I think it is.” “It is,” Val said, almost sheepishly. Camilla dropped her cup and covered her mouth with her palm, eyes wide, hair sticking every which way. “Valentina! That’s the freaking Droptail Rolls Royce! Are you insane? No, is he insane? You’re kidding. You better be kidding because if not!” Val laughed, half in embarrassment, half in pride. “I swear that was my exact reaction. So just relax.” “Relax? How do you expect me to relax when you’re out here driving what’s basically money on four wheels? God. Val. I hate you so much. You’re living my dream.”
