Niccolo Point of View
Finishing with one final thrust, I fell beside her on the bed taking her back into my arms. One of the most beautiful feelings is having the person you love in your arms.
“Now tell me. What happened?” My beautiful girl asked poking my chest with her pointed finger teasingly.
She has turned into one daring girl after we had spent our first expedition in bed. At first, she was apprehensive and shy but with time, she did acquire the skills of turning me into a putty in her hands. She leant my weak points, my pleasure points and methods to make me agree to something.
“I was just confused on some issue. Nothing important.” I answered vaguely not wanting to drag her in my troubles. She has her own issues and a messed up situation. She just started to enjoy her time with me and started to laugh and play, I don’t want to replace them with my worries.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“There is something. You were not yourself from past few days.” She queried again slowly. I sighed and turned towards her, putting a lock of hair behind her ear.
“You are not giving up, aren’t you.” I smiled a little to which she shook her head determinedly.
“It’s about Fernando. I was thinking about him.” I said. She narrowed her eyes and me for a moment and realization dawned to her. Her face turned into a deep frown shaking her head to herself.
Adorable!
“You are still thinking to go with your plans?” She asked me with a small scowl and I nodded without any regret.
What I am doing is good and what I am doing to do is nothing wrong.
“Nicco, Revenging on your father will only get you into more problems.” She exclaimed face-palming her head. Her scowl deepened which I found so cute but the anger in her eyes is such wild fire.
Damn, how can her anger arouse me?
Argh!
“I am not going after him as a part of revenge, Bella. I am finding justice for whatever my mom had to go through because of that monster. I will bring him down, no matter what.” I will not leave him. After how he left my mom to die without any care, I will make him so vulnerable and helpless that he couldn’t cry.
He will pay for what he did. I will make sure he did.
All these years, I was just waiting for right time and when the opportunity prevailed itself, I will not loose it.
“I understand. I do, Nicco. But, like you said, the power and authority you have in your hands is for only few years until your brother could take over the responsibilities. Once the authority leaves your hand, people who were waiting for your downfall from shadows, will surely attack you at once and let me warn you, your father might also be one of them.” I laughed at what she said and kissed her on her forehead. She looked at me warily and raised her trimmed eyebrow in question.
Oh Bella, you should understand that I don’t do anything impulse without a bulletproof plan.
I propped on my forehand and looked at her with a smile, “You think Russo’s Empire is the only power I have in my hand?” Her face creased deeply in confusion at my question, “Oh no, Russo is not the only Empire I have in my hands, sweet Bella. Have you heard about GNB Mining and Constructions?” I asked.
Bella thought for a while and nodded her head, “I once heard the name when one of the girls in the house talked about. Otherwise, I don’t know exactly what it is. Why are you asking me about it?”
“Because, my Bella, GNB is my own company, my own empire that I am building from scratch.” When I announced, Bella gasped looking at me with admiration.
“You have your own company too?” I nodded my head, “Wow.”
“Indeed, and you know what, you gave me the much needed push to go forward years ago.” I said reminiscing those days.
Days when I worked hard to get to the position I am in right now. It was truly said, there is woman behind the success of every man.
In my case, there were four women, my mom, grandma, aunt and Bella.
“I? How can someone like me be your motivation?”Bella laughed out awkwardly. I gave a sharp glare at her and her laughs seized.
“I was already having thoughts of starting my own company by the time I first met you, but after few times meeting you, I was fired up to become successful and get you out of that hell. I could have used my money from Russo accounts but I wanted to use my first earning from my own hard work and so I did.” That moment was so meaningful.
The day I earned my first billion, I was so happy I got my Bella to myself and I am so proud of it, I was so proud how I used it.
A smile curved on my lips when I remembered the day I threw the money on the supervisor face and damn, the look that old lady gave was such a satisfying sight.
She must have thought to use Bella in many ways so as to lead the life of luxury herself. She dared to use my Bella’s beauty for her luxury and I made sure that the supervisor lady has the dreading life here forth.
“You – you used your hard work for me!” Tears sprung at the end of her eyes. I nodded and took her into a good deep kiss to perceive the feeling of having her with me.
“Yes, now stop crying, you know I hate it.” She hugged me tightly, unable to speak anything but I understood her. I understood the overwhelming mix of emotions she is feeling.
“Anyway, as I was saying, I started to plan things to bring down Fernando Russo from far many years and I found an opportunity to affect his business through a contract deal many companies offered me and Fernando’s is one of them.”
“Oh, then what are you confused of?” Bella asked me. Looking over to the night lit city through from the large window, I wonder how the buzzing people deal with their complicated lives.
I know every person face demons of their own but when I look at them, they look so happy and to some extent content with their lives. I’m curious what the secret of such life is. Even the most troubled people, more troubled than me or Bella looked happy and satisfied at one point, then what about me?
What about Bella?
“I don’t know, something in the back of my mind is pulling me back. I know I have no compassion for him but I don’t know…” It’s true I have no care for him but I don’t understand the reason for reconsidering the plans I made.
“Because you are not him. You are not like him and you are not meant for destruction.” Bella stated, wearing a robe. She walked towards the table and brought me a glass of chilled water.
“Not exactly. I have the thirst to avenge my mom but it is just…” I left out not knowing what it that is holding me back was.
“It is just the matter of time, Nicco. If your father should be defeated and taught a lesson by you, then there would come a time when you would not have this hesitation. At that time, at that certain right time, your itch for justice intensifies. And that is the time you should go with it.” The wisdom in her eyes is quite admirable.
This woman, she is not a post graduate, she is not from a affluent family but the things she says from heart is more than any confirmation to me.
I guess, what she said is true. This might not be just the right time and I have to wait for a perfect chance.
“Miss Bella Sweetheart, I am immensely satisfied with you advice. Is it only the personal issues or can you give good advices in other matters as well?” I teased her, sitting in the sofa beside her and pulled her into my lap.
She looked at me confusingly for few moments and laughed out loud shrugging both her shoulders in a posh American style.
“It depends, Mr. Adorable Sweetheart.” She replied back with a cheeky smile.
Wait a second… She did not just call me adorable. Did she?
My smile curved into a scowl and in the spur of a moment I entered two on my fingers into her opening. “I am not adorable, Sweetheart. I am hot; irresistibly hot. Tell me I am hot.” I entered another finger.
Bella gasped and licked her dry lips. Her eyes dilated again and she arched back with a moan. I asked her to repeat the sentence after me but the only sound that is coming from her mouth is loud moans.
“You- you are…” She stuttered.
“Yes, hot. Say hot.” I repeated, pressuring her to comply me, playing with my fingers inside her.
“A-dorable.” She moaned out laughing like an angel just descended to earth only for me. I smiled slyly at her and tore the robe off her delectable body.
Oh, you did not just tease me with that awful word!
