✨ DYLAN ✨
” Good morning Figlio [son ] ” Mom said as she strolled into my room with a tray in her hands as she smiled in my direction .
” Mom …” I said in suprise and she Chuckled as she dropped the tray on the table.
” I know you’re gonna try and skip breakfast like you always do ….” She trailed with both hands on her waist.
” I have to go to Venice for the business ” i said and she chuckled.
” That doesn’t stop you from eating son , Health before wealth ” she said as she helped me knot my tie.
” You’re being too hard on yourself ,we talked about this last month ” she scolded and I sighed .
” I take care of myself a lot nowadays” I said and she shook her head.
” You skip meals …that’s a bad habit ” She said and gestured towards the tray .
” Go and have breakfast ” she said and looked around the room .
” Where’s Ivy ? She asked curiously.
” She’s in her room ” I said as my mind went back to our last conversation .
” Her room ? You guys still stay apart ,I thought that ended after she gave birth ” mom asked and I rubbed my neck immediately.
” I know what you’re trying to ask mom , We’re no married yet ” I said and she Chuckled.
” Are you sure about this son ? You can’t stay with this girl in the same room … marrying her is like hurting the both of you ” Mom said as she tapped my shoulders.
” Ivy respects me ,she’s nice hardworking with less trouble ..plus she has done nothing to hurt me unlike my previous relationships” I said and sat down for breakfast.
” And most importantly ,We have a child together ”
” I should be marrying my baby mama mom ” I said and she stared at me with a worried look .
” Is that why you proposed to Ivy son ? Are you using that girl to forget Cora ”
” Mom that’s not it …Ivy and Cora are two different people ” I snapped immediately as I tried to calm down.
” Why are we even talking about Cora right now ? I asked frowning .
My whole being hurt from even thinking about that woman .
” We are talking about Cora because I feel …this conversation is very important …son . I agree Ivy has your child but she deserves love too , not just the status as your wife and the mother of your daughter . I won’t watch any of my son’s go into a loveless marriage ” mom snapped out of anger .
” I care about Ivy …We trust and respect each other that’s what we need to make this work ” I said as I tried to keep my emotions in check .
” Are you happy ? ”
” Gaurdami negli occhi e dimme Che sei Felice ? [ Look into my eyes and tell me you’re happy ] she said and I looked away.
” Sto benne mamma ” [ I’m fine mother]
” Has Massimo told you Cora would be coming to the Estate ? She asked and I gave a nod.
” I’m fine with it ,you guys shouldn’t be worrying so much mom ,I know Dad is worried and that’s why he told you to check on me again .
” I’m fine , Cora doesn’t own me ..she can’t just walk into my life and hurt me every single time . I don’t need her anymore” I said and mom sat next to me .
” You should control the way you h@të her son ….Be careful because that same hatred might fuel something very wicked which is Desire “she said and I rubbed my forehead.
” I’d leave you to breakfast .safe trip figlio” She said and left my room .
I stared at the tray and lost my appetite immediately ,I knew mom was gonna get angry if I left without eating anything even after she came to drop it by herself .
I tried calling Ivy and when she ended the call immediately ,I knew she was still pissed about the other night .
I’d make it up to her when I get back ,I made a mental note as I walked out of the Mansion.
” Ready to leave already ? Kris asked me outside ,he was just returning from a night shift at the hospital and he looked tired yet sëxy .
” Ya ..I’d see you ” he said and I gave a nod .
” When are you coming back ? He asked and I rubbed my forehead.
” Tommorow …. evening ,if I’m able to seal the deal ” I said and he Pat my back .
I knew he was worried too about Cora’s arrival . Why is everyone Makin it seem like I have no control of my life it’s annoying .
So what if Cora’s coming ….it’s nothing .
I’ve moved on
I have a fiancee ,I have a Child . ..I’m not begging for love anymore .
” Y’all should stop walking on Eggshells just because Cora’s coming ”
” Its not like that ” he said sadly .
” Have a nice day ahead bro ” I said and made my way out immediately .
Cora better stay away from my part .

?CORA ?
“Use the next flight Crisanto ,I won’t have you there while I’m over here ,I don’t Füçking care. ” I said Angrily as I got down from the Car and the guards moved to get my luggage.
” Make arrangements for your stay ,you can use one of my penthouses here , fine bye ” I said and ended the call immediately.
” Hey ba……………..be” I heard my bestfriend’s voice as she pulled me in a hug .
” Füçk you look different ….look at your A*s ” Bella said and tapped my behind.
” You’re crazy Bella ” I laughed as she chuckled.
” I’ve missed you,don’t you dare run off this time around got it . Tell me you’re leaving when you wanna go. ” She said and I gave a nod .
” Yes ma ” I said Immediately.
” And stop exaggerating ,it’s not like I’m as beautiful as you are , Victoria secrets angel ” I said and she laughed.
” You’ve not told me who has been taking you from behind ” she said Naughtily.
” I’m an holy girl , please what is sëx is it a name of a biscuit ? I asked and she burst out laughing.
” How did you know I was talking about sëx then ? Bad girl ” she said and we both laughed.
” Cora ……” The Donna said in Excitement as she pulled me in a hug .
” Massimo said you’d be coming over girl I’ve missed you. Grace said and I Smirked .
” I’ve missed you more ,but I don’t think I’d be sleeping here tonight , I have work” i said and Bella sighed .
” Stop being a workaholic it won’t help you in anyway ” she said and I chuckled.
” It’s a small work ” I said and she gave a nod .
” But you’d spend tommorow with me ” she said batting her eyelashes and I gave in .
” Sure ” I said and she smiled.
” Aunt Cora ” Tati screamed excitedly as she ran into my arms .
I picked her up as she snuggled into me ,my heart warmed up immediately as I smiled .
” Missed you ” she cooed.
” Missed you more princess ” I said and thanked my stars at my tattoos where not visible.
Tati has always been a curious little girl . I still remember how she kept asking why I had my navel pierced .
I had to remove my belly button anytime I’m wearing a visible top .
” You’re so beautiful ” she said clapping excitedly.
They saw me to my room and I looked in shock to see the whole girls team in my room .
” A Bîtch …
” Yvonne screamed excitedly as she popped the champagne.
” I love y’all” I said and they laughed.
” Oh my goodness Cora if I didn’t know better I’d think you got your figure worked on .” Neomi said Amusingly
” Nah I didn’t go under the knife. ” I said with a chuckle.
” Your back side is giving babe ” Harmony said and I stared at how cute she looked in her baby bump.
” A lot of workout ” I said and Yvonne smirked .
” Stay away from …..D , especially with all this temptation . That guy has been through enough already .” Yvonne warned immediately.
” Yvonne ” the girls said and I gave a nod.
“What ? In as much as she’s my friend I’m just worried about my brother .he’s finally gotten his life moving in the right track she’s the last form of distraction he needs right now ,bitter truth .” Yvonne said and I sat down .
” She’s just coming in Yvonne” Bella sighed .
” Someone needs to tell Cora before Dylan dies from her toture ” Yvonne added and I knew this place was getting heated up .
Aria took Tati from me as she walked out .
” Yvonne I’m gonna stay away from Dyl I promise ” I said and she rubbed her forehead.
” I’m just worried about him , I don’t know what you did to my brother …you Füçked your way his system or something …he can’t move on ” she said and everyone laughed at the last part .
Well except me .
” He’s finally got everything figured out now , so. ….” She trailed .
” It’s just business ..I’m not here for him ,you have nothing to be worried about” I said and she chuckled.
” At least I got the message passed ,let’s go the Don is waiting ” she said and walked out of the room .
” Yvonne is like that , protective of her brothers but she’d come around ,she loves you ” Grace said and I gave a nod .
I stayed with them for a while before going to see the Don .
” Hey Cora ” Sergio said and I gave him a small smile.
” He’s inside ” he said moved away from the door so I can pass .
” Corazon ” the Don called and I bowed immediately I got in .
” Have a sit ‘ he gestured and as I sat down he dropped a file in front of me .
My eyes trailed the topic and I look back at him .
” Shocked right ? Don’t be …Sergio and Yvonne will be working closely with you ” he said and Sergio raised his eyebrows.
” I already sent Dylan to Venice he’d be back soonest tommorow, I want y’all to walk closely to make this is a success ” he said and Sergio rubbed his face .
” That’s Dylan specialisation and a bit of Yvonne …if someone would be helping her it’s him you know that right ? Sergio asked and one look from the Don had all of us looking at the ground.
” I trust they Will keep sentiments Aside , they’re both Adults and if cause proffesionals ” he said and non of us said anything afterwards.
How do I work closely with Dylan ? Is this karma or what .
“Sh!t ” I Cursed under my breath .
✨ DYLAN ✨
” The Don informed that you would be coming over so I made reservations to welcome you ” Dante one of our trusted men Residing in the territory said immediately I walked in .
” I’ve been here for a day now Dan ,What’s up with things around here ? We already lost many of our men lately and the shippings didn’t go as planned ” I said as we walked in together.
” Boss the business hasn’t been in good shape because the attack on our factory last night was something else ,our men narrowly escaped . Whoever is heading the attacks on the familia must be very dangerous and out to get the familia ” he said and showed me towards the sitting room .
” Boss ” the men bowed immediately they saw me .
A sign of respect they gave to every member of the De Luca family .
” We need to talk more about this issue and device a means to get on with the business …and protect the workers as well .
” Copy that Boss ” He said and shook hands with me .
” Join us for Dinner ” He said and I looked at the guys as they smiled at me .
I gave a nod without saying another word . I strolled towards the room they prepared for me as my mind went back home and the fact that Ivy wasn’t even talking to me before I travelled.
My eyes scanned the room as I dropped my Travelling bag on the couch .
I slowly Unbuttoned my Formal shirt ,I noticed the neatly dressed bed and the way the dim light shown in the dark room .
The tiles where sparkling and the more I thought of my numerous problems, my head hurt .
I losened my belt which made my pants lose on my waist as I lit up a stick of ciggerrate .
I walked towards the mini bar at the other end of the room and poured in a bottle of strong wine .
I strolled towards the Balcony ,as I stated at the City while smoking into the night .
The night was preety dark already and the faint smell of sëx could be heard from a distant .
Speaking of sëx ,I haven’t had sëx in months mainly because my relationship with Ivy has never been based on sëx.
Ivy and I got into a relationship because We were friends .
I was frequent at this Club where she worked as a Stripper and I watched her get into trouble because of the nature of her job .
So one faithful night I stood up for her and got her out of the place.
I was in a desperate need to forget Cora at that point , because the more I saw her the more hurt I became .
She didn’t care if I existed because Everytime I tried to talk to her ,we end up in the bed with her running ten times far after sëx .
A means to satisfy her lust ,that’s all I’ve ever been to Cora .
I don’t know why I ever felt she could love me one day , her touch and her care confuses me because whenever we spend a night together we end up fighting the next morning .
So I made up my mind to move on from her ,that’s when I started going out more with Ivy and accepting her numerous invitations to hang out , knowing fully well that my heart was already taken by my heartless heartbreaker .
When Ivy and I started dating , It was preety obvious to everyone that we had no chemistry.
My whole family had always been optimistic that Cora and I would end up together ,but how is that possible when the Cora in question has never wanted me from the beginning ?
The night Ivy and I slept together was actually my birthday , I was drunk and hurt .
But she’s always wanted us to be intimate and used my moment of weakness against me. I knew Ivy loved me and I only entered this relationship With hope that I’d one day fall her but that only made matters worse .
I am always on the edge around her even when I try to act normal , the second time we tried to make love was when I called Cora’s name during our make out.
It was really Embarrassing for me because we had an argument and….
” Ivy ” I called as she got up from my bed immediately and wore her room slippers.
” Let me explain” I said as I ran my fingers on my hair while bitting my lower lip .
” Explain what Dyl ? That you’re so crazy over your Ex who never cared about you ! She snapped in anger and I ran my fingers in my hair .
” You’re my girlfriend ” i said trying to control the situation.
” Exactly I’m your girlfriend so stop making me feel like I’m nothing to you Dylan …..! She fired as angry tears rolled out of her eyes my heart squeezed in hurt .
” Ivy ”
” Don’t touch me Dylan , stop lieing to yourself please you’re very much inlove with your Ex ” she said in frustration.
” She’s not my Ex ” I muttered softly.
” Cora Cora Cora what does she want from us Dylan …we are expecting a baby together ,you told me we got this covered you promised me a future ”
” I’m not going back on my word ,I’m responsible for this pregnancy as much as you are ” I said and she cried as she walked into my arms .
” Don’t leave me Dylan please ….m” she cried as I kissed her forehead tears rolled outta my eyes as my heart squeezed in hurt .
The burning sensation on my throat snapped me from thoughts .
” Füçk you .Cora …..for doing this to me …” I said as i drank more and more trying to relief myself from the unending hurt in my chest .
I have Ruby my little bundle of joy and Ivy …with time I’d be complete …I don’t need Cora I’ve never needed her .

?CORA?
” We talked about this Corazon ” Crisanto said as he washed me swim in the Pool .
I swam out of the water as I Smirked at him .
” I didn’t ask for your permission did I Santo ? I asked and he Looked away and back at me .
” Is it compulsory that you work for the De Luca’s ? He asked and I got out of the pool .
I walked passed him as I picked my glass from the table in front of me ,I could feel his eyes on my bare A*s which was exposed due to my choice of swim suit .
” My life belongs to them Crisanto , if you can’t do this for me anymore you can do back to the Philippines I’m sure Dolores would enjoy your company” I said and his eyes flashed with hurt .
It’s not a new thing ,I’ve gotten used to hurting people anyways.
I Know Crisanto loves me ,he has feelings he shouldn’t be having in the first place .
But love isn’t in my dictionary ,it’s never gonna be .
” I’m not working for your aunt ,I’m working for you and your arrogant nature isn’t gonna stop that ” he said and I sighed .
” You should reduce the rate at which you get naked ” he said and I chuckled darkly .
” Keep your eyes and hands to yourself ” I said and he looked away as I took the towel from him and dried my hair .
I walked into the penthouse and he followed softly.
” I thought you’d spend the night here ? He asked as he dropped my glass.
” I heard dylan is coming over this Evening , we would talk about the meeting with the Don later tommorow ..and besides I’m not allowed to sleep outside …the Don’s Orders .” I said and walked into my room .
My mind went over to Dylan and the last time I actually saw him and my blood ran cold immediately.
We didn’t talk …but I could feel his dark stare the entire time and the guilt right then and there could’ve killed me .
I changed into a black dress that looked a bit decent and added them with a pair of Designer heels picked my bag .
” I’d text you when we need to go somewhere ” I said and Crisanto to stared at me from where he stood as he poured wine into his glass .
He was now shirtless . His hair wet and his jeans hanging dangerously below his waist.
Crisanto is a handsome youngman with looks that would make every lady swoon .
With his brown eyes and amazing personality ,but Dylan …
Is taller more built with the Dark vibes , he is more manly and a perfect gentleman .
I snapped out of my thoughts as my cheeks heated in a blush . I can’t believe I’m comparing Dylan and Crisanto .
I frowned immediately.
” If you could wait a bit ,I’d drop you off ” he said and I turned immediately.
” What are you up to Santo ? I asked and he laughed.
” Chill I’m not eating you up Cora ” he said and I shook my head .
” Fine ” I said and he stared at me in shock .
” Really ? Füçk I’m on it ” he said and hurried upstairs .
He came downstairs with his car keys and I scrolled through my phone as we walked out together .
He opened the car door for me as I got in .
We drove towards the De Luca estate and I leaned on the chair .
Deep down my heart I’m scared of meeting Dylan ,I don’t wanna meet him. ..I don’t know if I’d be strong enough to watch him right in front of me .
Knowing fully well that I can never have him , he belongs to someone else now .
He has an happy family with his family ,isn’t that what you’ve always wanted ? My mind asked as I looked outta the windows I bit my lower lip.
” Are you okay ? Crisanto asked worriedly and I gave a nod.
We drove into the de Luca estate and memories of Dylan filled my mind .
” I love you Cora ”
” Just give me a chance”
” Please ”
” If you just want to fulfil your desire don’t sleep with me Cora ”
My heart squeezed in hurt and my feets became heavy and couldn’t support me .
I held the car door and walked out .
” Call me ” Crisanto whispered softly and I didn’t say a word as he kissed my forehead .
I watched him drive away immediately .
I walked into the Mansion and , Frederico junior Walked passed me with a laptop , as he made a call on his phone.
” I’m home babe …yeah …I’d text you the research ” he said and when he turned in my direction the teenager had the guts to smirk .
” Call you back ” he said and stared at me hands folded .
” Hey Corz ” he said teasingly.
” It’s Cora Frederico junior you’ve grown so tall ” i said and he laughed.
” It’s puberty ,I’d be turning 14 soon you know ” he said and I chuckled
” Puberty sure hit you good ” I said and he chuckled.
” You can date me ” he said teasingly.
” Fredo ….you promised to help set my doll house ” Tatiana said coming in and Frederico junior laughed.
” I gotta run ,the mafia princess is trying to end me. ” He said and she screamed.
” Got you ” she screamed and a smile graced my lips as I watched them run around .
I turned and screamed as I bumped into a wall .
Wait this isn’t a wall …I thought as my eyes widened immediately my nose persived the smell of a familiar clone .
My heart beat rapidly against my chest as I felt his hand on my waist .
” Watch it next time ” he said Coldly and I blushed in Embarrassment.
” I’m sorry ” I muttered under my breath and he didn’t say a word as he walked passed me ,with his suit case in his hand .
What the Füçk just happened ?
