I grinned and stepped back, I gazed at the door aware Antonio was a busy man and making time for me wasn’t always possible. I spun around to see Monica, his tart, approaching. I gawped at her wearing a leather figure-hugging dress and a fur coat, wearing sky-scraping high heels, I had no idea how she managed to walk in those damn things.

Carlo moved to the side and opened the door for her, and she went into the office. My heart dropped into my stomach, I hoped to God she wasn’t in there to please him. A tear filled my eye and escaped the corner, I wiped it away, aware these feelings had to stop, after all I’m the daughter’s enemy. I spun around to hurry away and gather my thoughts. I wanted to be in that room with him, only, I would be a distraction.

So, what the hell was Monica?

Making my way to the pool room to clean in there, gathering the towels when I stared at the hot tub and then at the king-size bed where we made love. Tears welled in my eyes, I was insecure and lonely and longed to feel love. All I wanted was someone to care for me the way my Mamma did, even her driver gave me more attention than my papa.

I moved to the bed to sit down running my hands along the sheet where we embraced and enjoyed our bodies being connected.

“You know, it's about time you gave in. I can give you all you desire, including hot love and a satisfying cock, and not that waster you appear to be spending your time with, which Daddy doesn’t know about,” Ricco said, narrowing his eyes.

“Are you threatening me?” I asked, sitting on my laptop in the garden fed up with being stuck indoors.

“No, not at all,” he said, sitting in the chair to my right. He crept his hand on top of mine making my skin crawl.

I pulled it away.

“You are playing hard to get. Your Daddy would love us to get together and make a future.”

“I don’t think so, I would rather stick my fingers in an electric socket.”

“Ouch, that might hurt. And we don’t need a pretty thing like you harming yourself, after all those tits of yours look far too delightful, I bet you have nice big nipples.”

“Cazzo.”

I shut my laptop and got up, I gathered my things and carried my equipment with me to escape the monster. There was nothing special about Ricco, littered with scars on his face, scruff on his face, and long hair that looked greasy all the time when really it was gel. He wore suits but even they didn’t suit him. He loved himself and would kiss my papa’s backside to get whatever he wanted. Only me, that wasn’t happening over my dead body.

“You really are paying hard to get Daniella. Why don’t you allow me to show you I’m not all heartless.” I couldn’t believe the man followed me.

“Go away,” I yelled, as I rushed through the corridors to escape him.

He caught up with me and grabbed my arm, he spun me around to face him. He slammed me against the wall and pressed his body hard into mine his knee between my legs. The laptop was only just still in my hand. He brought his face close to mine, pouting his lips, like some animal on heat. I turned my head when he tightly grabbed my jaw, he pulled my face to his and pressed his nasty lips to mine making me feel sick. I did all I could to shake off his firm grip, moving my head from side to side.

“Get off me,” I cried out.

“What is going on here?” my mamma’s voice shouted.

Ricco released me and turned to glare at her before toddling off without saying a word. I held my hand across my chest and heaved my breath.

“Are you okay sweetheart?” Mamma wrapped her arms around me. I embraced her and cuddled into her chest, never wishing her to leave my side again with that evil, monster around.

Chapter 18

ANTONIO

Isearched the entire mansion looking for Layla aware she would be wearing naughty lingerie, secondly Carlo had told me she wanted to clean my office while I worked, and she saw Monica enter my office. I feared I knew what she would be thinking, only she couldn’t be more mistaken.

I went all over and finally giving up on hope and getting close to having my men find her, I saw her sitting on the king-size bed where we made love, near the pool.

I approached, but she appeared to be miles away lost in thought.

Not wishing to alarm her I gently made my way to her when she shot her head in my direction. I grinned only she turned her head in the opposite direction.

Yep, she’s pissed and is assuming the worst.

Sat with my guard up on the bed as close as I dare move to her.

“Carlo’s told me you saw Monica enter my office. I can assure you nothing happened, sexually. She brought me some important information about a club I am at war with,” I told her truthfully.
