MADDWAYNE- mafia series part 1

Chapter 24

Lorenzo's POV

"Capo" -Kygo entered while I was fiddling with my pen, planning the construction of a new mansion with pools and gyms with a resort look.

"Si" I growled.

"News. Sorry sir, William has absconded from our hold and our men are behind him. I've given shooting orders."

"Who asked you to do that? Idiot. Cancel them. NOW!" I roared, my fist breaking the glass top of the table I was working upon.

"Sorry sir. But sir.." he started and I cut him with one stare.

"Sir." He bowed and left.

I'm gonna kill him with my own hands. I want to see him tremble on his knees when I kill his family right in front of him. I'll torture him until he pleads me to take his life. Tsk.

Suddenly,  I lost all my senses. I picked up the glass bowl nearby and hit the wall next to the door. It crashed into pieces.

I have to calm down
But how did that horsecrap escape?

I took a deep breath and sat on the couch.

"What happened?"
"Owwwww"

It was Saachi. Looking her best in a red saree, she stood there, holding the handle of the door. The glass had cut her foot and she was limping on one leg.My eyes widened on the diamond shaped glass piece on her right foot, blood oozing out of it.

God! What have I done!

I immediately got up and yelled "who's there?" And the househelp rushed in, trembling.

"Clean that mess" I yelled and she hurried away.

"LOR, YOU OKAY??" Saachi almost half yelled, concern filled in her eyes.

She had a thing hurting her feet,bleeding. Yet she bothered about me and my wellbeing.

I felt miserable. Maybe this change in me started after she started giving me injections almost thrice a day and gave me more rest than Cheryl takes.

Not breaking eye contact, I walked to her. Heat crept up her cheek and she started turning red. I picked her up bridal style and put her on the recliner of my office. Kneeling down, I pulled out the glass. It wasn't how small it looked. It had got in 1.5 inches.

The doctor rushed and and wrapped up her wound, giving her an injection. As he was dressing up her wound, I noticed a bruise on her ankle. That was the result of a blow I once gave her at my worst temper.

I wanted to die. My blood boiled. I didnt notice anything these days whenever she gave me an injection. She never even limped. That perfection was in her acting. She hid all the pain and anger and gave me nothing but love.

Carrying her in my arms, I took her upstairs. Walking into our room, I placed her on the bed gently. I placed a kiss on her forehead and she shuddered. I guess this was all I loathed, her fear and insecurity that I seeded in the past few years. I walked to the entrance of the room and called for Hugo.

I asked him to check on Lina and stay next to her the whole time. I closed the door and turned back. My eyes immediately locked with hers and a blush made it's way up her face. I couldn't take my eyes off hair, her eyes, cheeks, lips, neck and her beautiful body. Her expressions, that one single look urged all the blood to rush south.

I lay next to her, pushing a lock of hair behind her ear. Her blush gave me a strange feeling in my stomach.

Are these called butterflies, again? Gross.

I couldn't resist my lips on hers. I tasted every single little bud in her, exploring slowly, her lips as soft as melting butter. My hand made its way to her waist and I started leaving small pecks on her neck. She started unbuttoning my shirt with her perfectly manicured hands and I cooperated in every way. She was the master and I was her slave there.

I kissed her fingers, feet, every part, caressing her, assuring her with each touch that I would never ever hurt her. However the weight in my chest didn't seem to go down. My tears involuntarily fell on the bruise on her foot and she winced. She stroked my hair and I went up to meet her gaze. I let her see the most vulnerable Lorenzo, breaking down in front of her.  She kissed away all my tears. Hugging me close, she whispered in my ear
"Its all in the past, Lor. I love you. I love us. I know you'll be fine,honey. I'm there. Don't worry."

I love her.
After everything I've done to her, she chose not to leave my side.
I made love to her. It was filled with compassion then, and now. The same love, the same passion.

I kissed her forehead and said "I love you. I love you with everything I have and I'm sorry." I sighed.

I hugged her close, her head resting on my chest. Stroking her hair, slowly we fell asleep as darkness invaded our vision.

-----------------------------------

I woke up with a numb shoulder. My eyes opened to see Saachi sleeping peacefully and I took my time to read her features- beautiful features. I still couldn't believe I married this goddess. Pecking on her forehead, I woke up and took a quick shower. Getting dressed, I looked at myself in the mirror

Apologize to Lina too.
But what if she never forgave you?
She said she would never call me papà again. Never.

"Mhm.." her voice broke my cloud of thoughts.
"Leave my daughter, do anything to me.." she groaned, pain and fear radiating off her. I went to the bed and lay next to her head. Holding her close to my chest, I whispered " shushh..its okay honey, you're having a bad dream"
Her body stiffened for a while but she relaxed and slept again.

I walked out of the room, tears blinding my vision.

I knocked her door twice. "Come on in!" She cooed. As I walked in, she jumped on her bed, her eyes showing off terror and my insides sank. She was clearly in the middle of texting someone, her chat window was open. Guilt turned me into a vulnerable person now and I cursed myself for being a loser.

I sat on her bed and asked politely
"can we talk?"
"W-what is it?" She whimpered.
"I'm sorry" I said after a long sigh and her eyes widened, she was dumbstruck and words stuck in her throat.
"I'm sorry baby," I said and she lowered her head, looking at those little panda bears on her bedspread.

"For all I have done and said until now, I'm sorry Lina. Will you forgive your papà?" I asked.
"Hmph! PAPÀ?" She smirked.
"Dont ever think this will change anything between us" she yelled.

She was hurting my ego. But I had to stay calm.

"Can I join your graduation ceremony?"
"Yeah, alright, It is postponed by the way." She said.

"Alright" I said, contemplating what dress I should gift her for her big day.
"Thank you, baby.." I said and she looked at me.

The phone was quiet until now and I sensed something wrong in her behavior. She was definitely hiding something. The phone screen slept so I didnt bother looking at it.

She was reading me.

"Can I get some space?" She growled and I had no other choice but to leave the room. I found a writing on the desk, which she didnt allow me to read.

I left her room and hit the gym. Each punch sent all my anxiety out. The day ended real quick with me doing very little work.
