28. My cross and my new hobby
Adriano Di LauroAs soon as she arrives at the hospital, my daughter tries to escape from her seat, but untying her seat belt becomes a difficult task, which makes her angry.Without realizing it, a smile appears on my face seeing her fight the difficult battle."Do I help you?", my wife asks, to which she desperately nods. It's the first time I've seen a child eager to visit a health center. "Ready"."Bye, daddy!". She leaves one of her childish kisses fleetingly on my cheek and takes bodyguard's hand to get out, but not before encouraging the doctor. "Hurry up, Cassie!""She seems excited" the blonde says in front of me."You think?". I raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "I can assure you that she won't let you work today"."I'll know how to keep her at bay", she assures me, making me want to laugh out loud. She still doesn't know her well."I tell you from my own experience"."Nonsense!", She huffs. "It can not be so bad"."You'll see for yourself", I warn as I listen to my daughter's
29. The woman of Steel
Adriano Di LauroFor a moment I don't think I'll make it in time, but my feet seem to fly and I stop her hand just a few millimeters from my wife's face.Blood rushes through my veins feverishly, bubbling at the boiling point of hers and as it boils higher, the chill in my gaze grows. It is a trait that characterizes me: hot inside, cold outside."Don't you ever lay a hand on my wife". My voice is barely a hoarse whisper. "Not even with your thought"."She offended me!" The old woman protests."I don't give a damn", I state. I've been too easy on you, Francesca, and you know why, but I'm still in control here. Don't tempt me because in this story you are the loser".She tries to retort, but she stops before she can. She doesn't have a hair of stupid and she knows what's good for her."Get out of my sight before I kick you out of this house" I order before giving my wife my full attention. The first thing I do is review her status in detail and then, I glare at her."Don't look at me
30. Surprises
Cassandra ReidA weekend in a resort...As if it were the honeymoon we didn't have. And the name of the place completely stuns me:"Mia cara""Is it yours?", I find myself asking."My most recent project", he accompanies his response with a nod. "It still doesn't have any guests. The opening will be on fourteenth, so we have forty-eight hours just for us and the kids"."On Valentine's Day?", My eyes must sparkle with a million questions. The name refers to me and he will open it on the day of Love. Is he trying to tell me something or is it just a pure coincidence?"The publicity team thought the date was ideal", he shrugs without further ado, managing to put m illusions downhill.Either way, it would have been too good to be true."Grandma won't come?", I ask fearfully. If she also joins us, I prefer to stay at home. Our coexistence is becoming unbearable. The first day I almost ate her when I found her snooping through my things. If it weren't for Adriano's intervention, Apocalypse
31. Ice Moon
Cassandra Reid"Oakland?", I question with an unfriendly face. I thought we had passed this stage. "What does this mean, Adriano? And please don't tell it's what I'm thinking"."I have started to invest in hotel sector and this city seemed like a good option"."Yeah, sure", I laugh and snort at the same time. "Did you know that I'm Ella's age and I suck my thumb?""There is no need to use sarcasm, cara"."I'm just playing along", I say as my anger grows faster. He just had to screw everything..."You missed destination you've chosen for our Honeymoon attempt", I begin to rant as I jerkily unpack my bags. "Or maybe you did it on purpose".I stop to look at him for a few moments. He remains leaning against the wall with his arms crossed and his usual undaunted gesture. He's not good at lying, it's not his style. The answer is obvious."You planned it all", I rub my face with my hands as a bitter smile breaks through and I fell like an idiot."But what are you saying?""The truth!". Alt
32. Ice Moon 'Part two'
Cassandra ReidMy hunger suddenly subsides and I let out a long snort."Cassandra, honey, those are not ways to behave at the table".I close my eyes and count to ten so I won't lose control in front of the little ones.If Adriano had anything to do with this, I swear I won't forgive him this time."Aren't you going to greet us?"Am I a bad person if at times I hate my mother?"Taking into account that you were not invited, courtesy is unnecessary", my husband intervenes with a neutral tone as he kills the maitrê with his eyes, surely for having let them pass. His attitude tells me he didn't call them and that calms me down a bit. "I'm going to ask only once. What are you doing here?"My mother's eyes widen as she makes a big 'O' with her mouth to claim. That's the only thing she knows how to do well aside from running charitable foundations"How do you dare...!"She stops mid–sentence because of my father's discreet tug on her arm.Wow... It looks like Gibson Reid has met the match f
33. Worried
Adriano Di LauroHow did they get in? I have no idea, but I'll charge the condo security staff for this. I don't know what they were thinking when they dared to disobey me. Even here in America they know my name and my reputation.Dinner is spoiled, my good humor too and my patience goes to waste with every word that comes out of their mouth.Gibson Reid is looking for me... and he's going to find me. His audacity will not go unpunished. However, now I must focus on my wife, who I feel about to pass out at any moment.I hold her in my arms as I feel her weakness while she unloads her frustration against those who call themselves her parents, but who don't have a shred of it.No matter how despicable a person may, children are sacred and they have done nothing but use theirs, harm her and harm her.Just remembering the result of my investigations makes me go crazy like some kind of caged lion. They gave her to that psychopath in exchange for a measly position as ambassador when with th
34. Valentine's Day
Cassandra ReidMy eyes are too heavy for me. I feel exhausted as if I haven't slept in years and my mind refuses to wake up yet. However, an inspiring electric current suddenly stimulates my body, causing my eyelids to rebel against my desire to sleep and open the doors to the new morning. A sensual morning where my husband explores every part of my body while he sinks between my legs."What are you doing?", I ask, disconcerted, almost in a hoarse gasp, which betrays my status as just getting up."Taking my wife", he answers without further ado as he steals a moan from me with a nimble move. How is it possible that even asleep he manages to turn me on? "You're mine, cara and I'm hungry".With those simple words and the touch of our fur, it's enough to trigger my first climax. From that moment on, I am not aware of anything else than our pleasureWe kiss like beasts, ignoring everything but not desire between the us.His lips sweep away my longing for him as his hands to
35. Mommy
Cassandra ReidI jump up and put my hands on my hips. "I asked you a question, Leah Falco"."Is this your way of receiving me?", she questions. "If I had known, I wouldn't have come"."I thought you didn't want to come", I state."I didn't..., but I couldn't refuse to your husband's insistence. What a power of persuasion the Italian has!", she argues. "No wonder you fell for him. Also, he offered me a private plane trip with hot Pietro Varca. My God, what a man! And how he kisses!"Leah!", I screech in alarm as my eyes widen as if they're going to pop out of their sockets. "What have you done?""Oh, child of mine, it was just an innocent kiss". I take a hand to my forehead and then I pass it over my face. She has no choice, I should be used to her spontaneity by now, but hers is going to another level. "The important thing is that I am here as you wanted. Can I get my welcome hug now?"I examine it carefully. Anyone who doesn't know her would say she looks just like always, but I ca
