CASSIUS’S POV
Getting angry and dropping her off the road was never my plan, but who cares?
Alessia had the guts to say shuts about me, and expected me to stay calm? Fuck! I can’t!
I might be fucking her and calling her Bunny, but that doesn’t change who I am.
I’m Cassius fucking Riven, the Satan’s heir and the Mafia lord of Black Stone clan.
After I told her to get down from my car, I drove off at full speed, but stopped on the road.
I punched the car’s glass out of anger.
The sight of blood calmed me down, so after I punched the glass window, the sight of my blood calmed me down.
” Fuck you, Cassius!” I gritted and held the steering, making a U-turn, back to where I had left her on the street, but she was nowhere to be found.
My heart skipped a beat for a second, until I saw Cece’s car from a distance, only I was relieved then.
I was relieved that CeCe had come to pick her up.
Maybe it was for the best.
I needed to fight off all my enemies, so they won’t come at my valuable possessions, that includes Alessia.
Making myself an asshole, a bastard and a jerk to her now, makes it easier for me.
I didn’t want to get even more attached to her.
Losing focus wasn’t part of my plan, but with Alessia, I was losing too much focus, that my enemies are coming at me with full force, knowing I now have a weakness.
Ever since the day she was kidnapped and we had our misunderstanding, I never approached her or went into her room through the window.
I was tempted to, I really wanted to, but it was taking the last strength in my to hold back.
I missed her voice, her body, her pussy, and breast, her ass, and every fucking thing about her.
But I was holding back.
There was one thing I couldn’t hold back, that was stalking her.
I couldn’t stop myself from stalking her, with the excuse of protecting her.
I was well aware that she was safe with CeCe around her, but to ease the shallowness I felt within me, I had to assure myself that she needs my protection, and stalking her would help.
But I knew I was doing it for my selfish reasons. Since I couldn’t get closer to her, it was best I stalk her.
For me, I’ve never avoided anyone in my life. I was used to facing a situation head-on, but now, I was avoiding a mere woman.
Alessia was messing with my mind.
I haven’t had a proper sleep since our misunderstanding.
” Boss,” I heard a voice called my name, and I frowned with irritation on my face.
How much I hate getting interrupted.
” What do you want, Stella?” I asked and she stepped into my office.
” Boss, you’ve not called for me for days now, and I’m worried.” She said, biting on her lower lips.
I felt like strangling her until she lost her breath, but I was holding back.
If only she knew how irritated and angry I was, she wouldn’t be here trying to seduce me.
” Because I didn’t want to. Go find yourself someone to fuck!” My eyes turned red, as I glared daggers at her.
” But it’s not fair, Boss!” Stella stomped her foot to the ground, her eyes red with tears. ” Four days ago, you turned me on and made me wet, only to leave me hanging because I couldn’t give you the blowjob you wanted.”
” I’m not in the mood to exchange words with you, Stella. If you live your head and cherish it so much, get the fuck out of my office!” I warned in a calm but dangerous voice like the edge of a sword.
Stella still didn’t leave, she remained standing with tears leaving her eyes like a baby.
I hated tears, because it makes one look weak, and I would never cry for a woman or anyone.
That was one rule I can never break, not in this lifetime.
” Is it because of her?” She asked, her voice breaking as she spoke.
I raised my head and gave her a blank look.
” Is it because of Alessia Rossi? What has she turned you into? You’ve become so loyal to her pussy alone?”
I didn’t know what came over me, but I rushed from my seat, grabbed Stella’s neck and pushed her against the wall.
” Never talk about her in such a manner again, bitch!” I glared, my voice low and menacing.
” But isn’t she a whore?” Stella spoke through struggle.
She still had the guts to speak of Alessia as a whore while her life was hanging on a thin thread.
I added more force on my hand, choking her so much that she turned red and swollen with tears leaving her eyes.
” You…. you.. can.. choke…me.. all.. you.. want.. but.. Boss…that…doesn’t…stop…the…fact…that…you…can’t.. protect…her.”
Stella said and those words got me weak, that I released my hold on her neck and took two steps back.
I can’t protect her, because my world was just too dangerous for her to inhabit.
” Get the fuck out of here.” I said, and she stormed out almost immediately, holding her redneck.
I walked back to my seat behind my desk, and fell on it, Stella’s words still replaying in my head.
But each time her words replayed in my head, Alessia’s smiling face would follow, which turned my head into a mess.
I couldn’t think straight.
” Fuck it!” I stood up from my seat, grabbed my bike’s key and drove out of the Clan.
I needed to see Alessia and sort out whatever differences we had.
Upon getting to her apartment, she was nowhere to be found.
I stayed back in her room, inhaling her lavender scent, while waiting for her to return.
After about thirty minutes of waiting, I heard the sound of a car outside her apartment, so I took a peak, only to see her getting down from Nathaniel’s car.
My fist folded, almost drawing out blood, and it took the last strength in me not to walk up to Nathaniel and punch the hell out of him.
Luckily, CeCe didn’t come home with Alessia, so we would have all the time in the world.
” Can I come over to your place? I’m missing you already.” Nathaniel said, with his usual smile on his face.
All I wanted was to wipe those stupid smiles off his lips.
” It’s late, Nathaniel, and I’m tired from today’s activities, we should talk later.” Alessia declined and a small smile appeared on my lips.
” Okay, bye.” He said, got back into his car and drove off.
Once we were gone, Alessia got into her apartment, her eyes widened like the size of an orange upon seeing me in her sitting room.
” Ca…Cassius? What the fuck are you doing here?” Her shocked expression changed into an angry one.
” Did you miss me, Bunny?” I asked, my usual dark smirk gracing my lips.
” Fuck you, bastard!” She yelled, walked up to me and hit my chest.
” I fucking hate you!” Hit! ” You left me all alone in that dark road. You’re a devil!” Hit!
I let her hit my all she wanted until she was satisfied before pulling her into my arms against her will.
She was struggling to break free from my hold, but I didn’t let her.
” Stay calm, Bunny.”
She immediately went still in my arms, sniffling, as her tears wet my hoodie.
Holding her in my arms felt like a new whole feeling overwhelmed me.
The peace I never knew existed, came over me and my irritation, anger, hatred, clumsiness; they all disappeared once she was in my arms.
Only Alessia could bring me peace.
