(NFTMB)Chapter 20
Alessandro
(I double dare you)
Yes, I was going to marry Victoria. I don’t necessarily need to love and worship the very ground she walks upon just to marry her, that was bullshit.
I saw her, mistakenly slept with her, got her pregnant and now I demand to marry her. Simple as that.
I’m actually being a gentleman, I’m cleaning up my own mess. I should be praised.
“No sir, there’s a misunderstanding. You CAN’T marry me, you SHOULDN’T want to marry me”. She bursted out trying to discredit herself.
“It’s Alessandro now, and why? You got a problem?”. I asked her genuinely curious as to why she would react adversely.
Her eyes widened probably because I asked her to call me by my name but she made no move to answer my latter question.
Was she epileptic? Or a sickler? Did she have AIDS?. The last one made fear gripped my very bones, it had better not be, I would kill her if it were true.
I looked at her very well, she looked healthy and strong, very strong actually.
“Speak up Victoria!”.
She shook from fear as her attention came back to earth from the sound of my booming voice.
“I don’t love you, I don’t even like you, we’re not compatible. You hate me, I’m useless, I can only look after your baby, that’s all I’m good at. I can’t cook, I can’t clean either. I’m a mess, a useless mess, a liability, I won’t abort the baby, I won’t give it up for adoption, I’ll allow you to see the baby as much as you want but please don’t make me marry you, that’ll be the death of me. We’re bad for each other, we’ll ruin each other’s lives and possibly end up killing each other, we’ll be miserable, just leave me to find love again please. I beg you Alessandro please”. She ranted out in a frenzy while begging me.
Her statement evoked so many different emotions from me but one thing I liked was the sound of my name from her lips. It sounded nice, she should do it more often.
My eyes snapped to her in fury as I immediately wrapped my large hands around her neck. How dare she!.
“Care to repeat those words now? How dare you! Let me make this clear, you’re nothing, you’re lower than garbage to me and if I say I would stoop low to your level and make you my wife? Then that’s what the fuck is going to happen. You don’t have a say even if it’s your life, I own your life and I decide if you live or die. You think you can kill me in this marriage? Never! We’ll both stay trapped in this loveless marriage for all eternity!”. I yelled furiously as I tightened my hold on her neck.
“Please let me go sir, you’re hurting me”. She squeezed out while hitting her little hands on mine to get me to release her. How pathetic, she was no match for me.
“Let me make this clear Victoria, if anything happens to my child, you’ll pay, if you ever attempt to run with my baby in you, someone you love dies, if you ever give my baby away, you and everyone you know and love will die by my hands plus I will burn that orphanage and everyone in it to fucking dust. Don’t mess with me, I will ruin you completely”. I threatened a little bit of pressure just to get my point across.
She was crying with her face as red as a tomato, she looked like she would pass out at any time.
“Boss, I think she understands now, don’t forget she’s pregnant for you”. Sebastian whispered.
I let her go and watched as she coughed intensely and took in air greedily into her lungs. Sebastian got her water to drink which she gulped down immediately.
“What did I ever do to you? Why do you want to ruin my life?”.
I looked at her as she held her neck with her two hands possibly trying to soothe the pain. My fingerprints were very present on her neck.
“What you did? You walked into my life and my home, that’s what you did. And you purposefully flashed me just to attract me and kudos you got me, plot twist, I actually got you pregnant now that’s where shit hit the freaking fan, or wait, was that planned too?”.
Victoria looked like she would charge at me at any moment. My answer must have riled her up.
“You arrogant man! God knows I didn’t do that on purpose! YOU WALKED INTO MY ROOM, ON YOUR OWN, FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER! I never chased you to your office or your room. How pompous of you to think I would want to sleep with you just because you’re rich and handsome! You actually seduced me and gave me no chance of saying no because nobody ever says no to you, right?. I might have made that mistake once, but trust me I wouldn’t ever try that again, ever! You might have a flawless face, but your attitude is disgusting, it sucks!”. She yelled at me while hurling those insults at me.
My anger got the best of me as I pulled out my gun for the second time this night, pointing it on her head.
“Say one more rotten word, just one more and it will be your last. I will end your fucking life right where you stand”. I hated insults and she just threw a trailer load of them at me. I would never let that slide.
She smiled like a mad woman as she took bold steps closer to me making the gun sink deeper into her skin.
“I double dare you Alessandro. Kill me”. She said smiling as she spread her arms.
This woman dared to challenge me, in anger I turned the safety of the gun off ready to end her worthless life. This scene vaguely reminded me of Roberta. Why do I always get entwined with useless women?
Before I could pull the trigger, Sebastian stepped in and stood in front of her shielding her from the gun and replacing her with himself.
“Get out of the fucking way Sebastian!”.
“No boss, don’t forget she’s pregnant, she’s carrying your child”. He reminded me. I had forgotten that in a fit of anger.
“She should have thought of that before she decided to run her mouth and start something she can’t finish”.
“Please boss, I won’t let you do something you’ll regret”.
I looked behind him to see her standing there and wiping her tears.
“This isn’t over, very far from it actually. I’ll get you and you’ll be sorry. Don’t forget we’re spending our lives together”. I threatened her while pointing a finger at her.
Her adrenaline must have worn off as she visibly shrunk back in fear and slowly shook her head behind Sebastian. She should really be grateful for him else she would have been dead by now. Silly girl.
“I’m taking the car Sebastian, I need fresh air and a drink, this hellhole is suffocating. Find your way back after dealing with this trash”. I said, referring to her.
Her eyes welled up in tears at my words as she furiously wiped them away with the back of her hand.
“Yes boss”. Sebastian answered throwing the keys at me which I caught effortlessly.
I angrily stormed out of her tiny apartment and made my way down to my car.
I drove around aimlessly for a while until I arrived at a familiar club. I walked in clearly forgoing the queue and walking inside the club as the bouncer bowed to me.
I walked straight to the VIP area and settled in comfortably in one of the comfortable couches there.
Even with the deafening blasting of music in the club, one thought still swirled around my head. Victoria, Victoria’s insolence and Victoria’s fitting punishment.
I needed to make her pay. She won’t get out of this disrespect scot free.
A dancer sashayed seductively towards me as he twisted and whined her body in a bid to seem sexy and to attract me.
I decided to play along with her to see if it’ll help.
I slowly sipped my drink as I stared at her, we both never breaking eye contact with each other. Her blood red lips stretched in a smile as she bit her lips seductively and she carried on, doing her sexy dance very well.
Her hot pink lingerie left nothing to the imagination as her assets were on display. Voluptuous perky breasts and a perfect ass to go with it. I knew the breasts were fake and the ass too, I thought. She must cost a lot of money though. But either way, her body was stunning.
She had an air of confidence around her as she slowly danced, taking her time as she approached me. I spread my legs and watched her as her breasts jiggled with each sultry step she took. The woman was a skilled seductress. She knew what she was doing.
She knew how to lure men in, she had my full attention now. As she finally stood before me I looked at her, she was definitely my type. I loved her red hair and how the club lights poured down on her hair and her skin making her remind me of Jessica Rabbit.
“What’s your name?”. I demanded the moment she started to dance on me.
“Jessica Rabbit”. She purred seductively like a cat.
I almost rolled my eyes at the cliche nature of her name. I mean you have to give her credit for making it so obvious and so damn predictable. But she intrigued and interested me.
“No, what’s your real name?”. I wanted to know. I might just keep her around for longer. Amara and Victoria are trying to drive me insane. I need something new. Something with less trouble.
She looked nervous as she stopped dancing and looked around. I held her hand forcefully and dared her to defy me.
“Sorry sir, we’re not supposed to give out that information to customers”.
“I’m not just a customer, now tell me your name”. I demanded.
“It’s Robyn sir”.
