Tainted Heart

Chapter 1*

"Hi! Welcome to Bella Farfalla!" I say without looking up, until I hear the jingling of my best friend's bracelet. She looks like she's about to have a panic attack when she comes up to me. She tries to talk, but nothing is coming out of her mouth, but heavy panting. I walk around the counter and grab her hand pulling her to my office.

"Landon, watch the store while I take care of her." He just nods his head as I close the door to my office. Alice is laying on couch breathing hard. "Alice, what the crap is wrong with you?" She shakes her head and holds a hand up to signal she can't talk. I shake my head and take a seat at my desk. I wait for her to stop being so dramatic, but she's my best-friend I should have known she wouldn't ever stop being dramatic.

She slowly rises up from the couch and looks me dead in the eye and says very serious, "He's here." I give her the wtf face and she just shake her head. "Nadya, he's here." My hands start to slightly shake and my breathing turn into short pants. Alice rushes over to me and rubs my back. She whispers it's okay over and over till my breathing gets under control. She takes a seat on my desk and waits for me to speak.

"What do you mean he's here?"

"I ran into Sofia at the store and she said that Alessandro is out of jail. He got out on good behavior or something." I knew that he didn't get out on good behavior. Alessandro Salvatore always knew how to get out of trouble.

"I need to go see him." I said while getting out of my chair. She grabs my hand and shakes her head. "He doesn't want to see me?"

"Sofia said he's settling down at the house and to give him a few hours to relax. She also said that he would come to you."

"What does that even mean? I need to see him now. It's been five years, Alice. I need him." I sat on the couch and look at my wrist. The beautiful cursive letters that spelled 'Forever' with rose thorns circling it were forever branded on my skin. Just like the word 'Always' with same design is on him; branding us together. Always and Forever.

"Give him time, Ya-Ya. You know he missed you, and you know he loves you, but he needs his time to get himself together." I nod my head and go back to my desk. I throw myself into work trying hard not think about the memories of me and Alessandro.

Flashback

We were sitting down on his couch watching a movie. Well, I was 'trying' to watch the movie, but Alessandro was distracting me by leaving a trail of kisses down my neck.

"Alex, would you stop that we're supposed to be watching this movie?" I was sitting in between his legs with my back to his chest. His wandering hands started to make their way up my shirt while he whispered in my ear.

"I need you, Neonata. Let's just forget about the movie." His voice was deep and sultry. He knew that he could turn me on just with that voice. I turned around and sat on his lap. His hard member was poking through his sleep pants, begging to be let out. He let out a low groan when I started to rock my hips against his.

"Is this what you wanted?" I asked seductively.

"Yes, baby, I need more. I need to be inside you." He started grind his hips with mine while taking off my shirt. He knew I wasn't wearing a bra since he made a rule that I wasn't allowed to wear a bra in the house unless company was around. He huge hand gently grabbed my breast, fondling them before pinching my hard nipple. I gasped and rocked my hips harder.

"Fuck this." He said while picking me up and the setting me down on the ground. "Turn around and put your hands on the arm rest and spread your legs. Bend your back so your ass is up in the air." I did what he said putting my hands on the arm rest with my back bent ready for him. He came behind me and ripped my shorts right of my body. I groaned ready to tell him off for ripping another pair of my shorts. "I'll buy you more, but that stupid thing was in the way." Before I could even say anything, he entered me with one swift thrust. My mouth fell open while my body got accustomed to his huge size. He waited a minute before he pulled back and entered me hard one more time until he picked up a steady rhythm. I was getting close to coming, but I knew he wasn't finished yet. I'd probably cum about three times before he was even close. He started to pound into me faster and harder. Moan after moan tumbled out of my mouth while I reached down to rub my clit. He smacked my hand once he saw what I was doing.

"Did I give you permission to touch yourself?" I shook my head no, then felt swift smack to my ass. "We use words in this house, Neonata. Now I'm going to ask again, did I give you permission to touch yourself?" I moaned out a loud no as he continued to pound into me. I was on my second orgasm and was about ready to collapse. "No, I didn't. Whose pussy is this, Nadya?" I tried to speak, but all that came out was loud moan. I felt another smack to my ass as I clenched around him. "Nadya, whose fucking pussy is this?"

"Yours!" I moaned out loudly feeling my third orgasm creeping up. I clenched around him again knowing that would push him closer to edge.

"That's right, baby. This pussy is mine, now cum with me, baby girl." His words pushed me over the edge and came for the third time. He let out a loud growl and came inside me. We didn't move from our spot trying to catch our breath. He slowly pulled out of me and sat down pulling me down with him. He kissed me slowly and sensually. I run my finger through his hair and pull back looking at his beautiful face.

Alessandro was absolutely beautiful. It still baffled me on why he was with me. He was full Italian and clearly showed with his natural good looks. His bright green eyes held so much intensity it was sometimes hard to stare at them. His full pouty lips always seemed to beg me to kiss them. His strong jaw that he clenched when he was angry, was relaxed with stubble covering it. He had an amazing body, very well defined, but not overly defined. He was tall, a foot taller than me. I was 5'4 and he was 6'4. I looked like dwarf standing next to him, but I loved it. I felt protected next him. He was my protector. I love him, but he doesn't know that.

"Alex, I lo...." I was interrupted by a loud knock on the door. I moved off his lap and sat on the couch. He pulled up his sleep pants and kissed my forehead. I watched his back muscles and cute butt walk to the door. He looked through the peephole and the turned to me with hard look on his face. "Put some clothes on, the police are outside."

End of Flashback

"Nadya, Nadya, Nadya!!" Landon screams my name and that pulls me out of the memory. "Finally, I've been calling your name for the last ten minutes. I thought something was wrong with you. The shop is closed and everything is done for the day."

"Thanks, Landon, you're the best. Sorry, I've been out of it today. I've got a lot of my mind."

"No problem. I'm gonna head out. My mom is cooking all of my favorites tonight. She's trying guilt trip me for not spending more time with her. You should stop by, I know she would love having over. I wouldn't mind having you there too." He sheepishly says. Landon is really cute, with his blue eyes, long blonde hair, and tall stature. I know that he has a crush on me, but my heart always belonged to Alessandro. I've tried to like him back, but Alex was always in the back of mind.

"I can't tonight. I have something important to do, but I'll text you if I change my mind." I He nods his head and gives me a kiss on the cheek saying goodbye. I watch him leave and slump back into my chair. If only I had met Landon, before I met Alex, but I knew that even if I did meet Landon first, Alex would still have wormed his way into my heart. That's why I don't care if he doesn't want to see me. I'm not going to wait for him to come to me. I'm going to go to him and demand to know why he doesn't want to see me.

Watch out, Alessandro. You've made me wait too long. I'm coming to take back what's mine.
