Hold my hand

Chapter 8

Orlando pov(mentally squealing)

My life usually is boring. You know following the same routine, getting up, head to work, torture someone and come sleep.

And it does get kind of lonely. I have never dated because I was waiting for the special one in my life. I dont want gold diggers throwing themselves at me for my money and good looks. I want them to love me for me. And I proudly want to add that I'm a virgin. I dont feel embarrassed by that thought. I just want my other half to see that I've been waiting for her my entire life and treat her like the queen she is.

I wanted what my parents have. Their sweet banter, their empty threats, and their gross make out sessions(gags).

And I think I just found her. That night when I was walking through the park I saw someone singing the Donati's famous lullaby. But what was shocking that it was a girl singing. I knew all the Donati's as they were like my second family. I was close to everyone but extremely close to Emilio. He was my best friend.

I also knew that they had lost their sister, their principessa when they were young. And they all missed her dearly. They still were searching for her but luck was still not on their side.

So when I heard the lullaby, the first thought that came into my mind was 'could this be her?'

When she turned around, I was stunned. She looked exactly like Alessandro. But a much cuter and prettier version for sure. Her brown hair was flowing with the slight wind, her cute nose scrunched up and her beautiful brown eyes ogling at me. Wait what? She was checking me out. And I still dont know why that made me happy? I just met her for God's sake.

When she realised what she was doing, she blushed a deep red and let me tell you that was the cutest thing ever. And when she asked me what did I say, her voice was so soft. It was like music to my ears.

I asked her where did she hear the lullaby from, she said from her childhood which again made me suspicious about it. I'll look into it. But I've got to say that my girl was feisty. She was not afraid of me and sassed back. But I did find it weird when she was smiling while talking about her dead mother. Maybe she wasnt a good mother.

I couldn't help but be overprotective over her walking around at 2 am. It's not safe for her. And when I voiced it out, she started ranting so cutely that I wanted to kiss her plump lips on the spot. But I didnt wanted to creep her out. I became a little sad when she said that she was going home. But I understood. And when I asked her name she said, Lilliana. I knew she wasnt Lilliana. Because their sister's name was Kyla. But her middle name was also Lilliana. I was almost sure of her being their sister now.

When she said she didnt need me to walk her back due to stranger danger, I almost laughed because she didnt know that she had the devil himself on his knees for her.

But I still followed her back for her safety. I thought we wouldn't meet again anytime soon but I was wrong. When I saw her in my gym again I was ecstatic. I did my research on her found out her name was actually Kyla. I was planning to tell the Donatis by the weekend.

But when she said she came here to see Noah and Carl whom she finds 'hot' I nearly lost it. My hand was twitching towards my gun in my coat's pocket. I wanted to kill them but I couldn't as they were my best friends and also because I didn't want to scare mi Reina away.
(Translation- My queen)

I also didnt tell her about me owning the place because firstly I wanted to check whether she was affected by my wealth or not and secondly I didnt want her to know about me owning the place as I didnt want her to feel like I was impressing her with this.

When she said she wanted to fight, I felt proud of her. And the feeling grew even more when she said she'd pay like any other person. At that moment I knew she was the one for me. I'd do anything for her. And I specifically told her that I would train her as I didnt want anyone else to touch my baby. Boys can sure be hormonal.

Again she declined my offer to walk her back. Yet I still followed her home to ensure she was safe. I just couldn't wait to meet her tomorrow, our first lesson. With that I headed home, my thoughts clouded by a special brown haired beauty.
