Chapter-42

Cherish's POV:

I walked passing him to the car, I am annoyed at this point, why can't he just be like before?

I can sense a wall between us. I am getting crazy at this point, I hate how I am feeling this distance. I need to do something. I need to fix it.

But.. is he over me or something?

I looked at him as Riccardo was walking behind me. He stopped seeing my face, He was about to say something when I folded my hands around my waist.

I internally whispered, "Why you are acting like we had a fight?"

Riccardo pocked his phone, he said, "Get in... and..."

I shut him up, "I will not follow any order... ok... since you can act like however you want.. so can I..."

I noticed the car door opening, Riccardo said, "I wasn't saying anything, Wife"

Iris? She is here?

She is dressed as if she is coming with us?

I turned to Riccardo, He said, "Iris... your bodyguard... I know you meet but.." I slapped his arm as I said, "How dare you? yOU wicked animal!!"

He looked at me with wide eyes, so was Iris. I pointed my finger at him as I said annoyed, "She... she acted , and used my trust!!... wait... at one point you both did.."

Riccardo said almost ordering, "it's for your safety... stop acting and understand..."

I scoffed I said, "Kiss my ass..."

Riccardo grabbed my hand making me sit in the car he whispered, "I WILL..."

Pervert!

He smirked seeing my red face, he said, "You asked for it...." I grabbed his tie pulling him closer to my face, I said, "I asked for more... coward..." He looked down biting his inner cheek.

I heard him curse a little.

I understood one thing, acting nice with him won't work. I am getting sick of playing good, now I am going to be bad... be myself.

Soon, we were greeted by the fancy red carpet at the entrance of the party. Riccardo grabbed my hand as he said, "Lets go..."

I pulled myself away walking in as I said, "Don't start with your rules..." He has hundreds of rules while coming to a party as such.

I felt his gaze as if he was glaring at my backless dress. He is a jealous type.

I rolled my eyes.

My feet stopped as I saw face, I hate it. Riley Rizzo, god! someone kill her for me!

I turned to Riccardo who was few steps away, I rushed to him, tangling my hands with him. I noticed his smirk.

I pinched his arm a little as I said, "Don't be happy to see her..."

He whispered in my ear, "I am happy to be pinched by you... why are you jealous, Wife?"

I said back to him in whispers, "I sound old when you call me that!"

Riccardo placed a kiss near my ear as he said, "You sound sexy, Wife..." I felt his hand on my bare back, he is restraining then what is purpose to touching.

I said to him, "If you go near her... you cannot even touch me in future remember..."

He asked, "Warning?"

I said pack, "Threat!" He smirked, I kissed his lips, a small but passionate kiss. He wanted more I feel it by the way his hand tried to grab my face.

I moved back smirking at someone who was looking at us from distance. She can just watch from afar.

He is mine!!!

When my eyes went Riccardo, he looked at me full of desire. His finger were touching my bare skin little more. I can see the irritation and frustration he was carrying. Isn't it best to trouble him?

Riccardo placed a small kiss on my bare shoulder as he whispered to me, "you look breath taking ...."

I taunted, "Took you long enough"

After a while I stood there talking a drink, I just hope this boring party passes soon. I want to go home, it was better if I went to some club by myself.

My eyes met with Riccardo, he passed me a nod. I walked here to get away from the people who will die to please Riccardo.

But I am really enjoying how he likes to search for me with his eyes every time I am out of his sight.

Ryle stood beside me out a sudden, I ignored her. But like her mouth was going to shut down, She said, "Ah... quite shameless... Knowing your place you walked here... and don't think he will stick by your side forever...."

I whispered, "Quite new way of begging... but I have no intend to donate my husband." I rolled my eyes talking a sip of the drink.

Riley scoffed, she whispered, "He was mine first..." My feast tightened around the glass. I want to choke her.

I heard her, "And Pride you have to act like this... You have no decant image or introduction, what you think you can be fit for Riccardo?"

I looked at her glaring, I whispered, "Oh yea... and what are you not fit then?.... you seem too perfect... then what's your defect?...." I smirked as I saw her face frozen.

I said pretending to be sad, "Don't worry, he rejected you not because of your dead womb... but your disgusting attitude...."

She was looking at me with so much anger, I could feel it. If she could she could have strangled me.

I reminded her, "I am only daughter of Derosa's, no one is as powerful as me here.... trust me you won't take to listen my net worth....... and That man over there, he can kill hundreds like you for me.... I am that powerful!"

She said out in anger, "A b*tch like you can only... only brag ... I will shred you down to dust.. and you will having nothing but tears..."

I threw the entire glass of wine on her face, she screamed in surprise, everyone was looking at me. I glared at her as I said, "My hand slipped Miss. Rizzo..."

She looked around embarrassed and angry. She pulled the bottle from the table to hit me, she aimed it at me. When I felt someone towering in front of me, pulling me behind.

It happened in split second, I noticed Ryle's hand stopped as Riccardo warned from distance, "Ryle!!!"

She looked at Riccardo betrayed, while I looked at him as if I was at ease, he seemed to be totally different person. I realized the man protecting me was Isaac.

He took the bottle from Ryle with force. Isaac warned, "If... you even think about it again... I will kill you..."

Riley said back, "How dare you!!!... I will show you your place..."

Riccardo warned, "Miss. Rizzo.... that's my wife and her brother, remember before anyone words.... and I think you need to explain for what I witnessed!!!"

Riccardo was closer to me, His hand fixed my hair, he warned Riley, "Miss. Rizzo... I hope you don't want a war here.... do you?"

I saw her father coming in between, he tried to cool the situation, saying she is not in her best state. This might be a misunderstanding.

I taunted, "I know a physiatrist.... he can help if she cannot differentiate between right and wrong........" I smirked. I did earned a hateful gaze from her and her father.

But as she left in anger, her family followed.

My eyes went to Isaac, he...he protected me, using himself as shield.

He asked, "You ok..." I nod.. ... I couldn't thank him.

He taunted, "You caused a scene.... how old are you!" I was about to roll my eyes but I noticed the way Riccardo was looking at me, I am in trouble.

I tried to explain, "I.. I....she started it..."

Riccardo kept his glare on me, why is he angry on me?

Isaac said "Mr. Valentine... I hope you cool your anger before"

Riccardo grabbed my hand pulling me out of there, I felt shivers on the anger I felt in him. Isaac grabbed Riccardo's hand as he said, "Riccardo... that's my sister...... I haven't give you right to treat her like that...."

He was trying to save me, but I never thought Isaac will stand in front of me protecting me.... that so against Riccardo.

Riccardo grabbed Isaac's shirt, Riccardo warned, "Who you think you are touch!!"

Isaac kept his eye on Riccardo, soon looking down. He said, "You promised... you will take care of her...."

As If Isaac was pleading, being.... what kind of status Riccardo hold that someone as ego fed as Isaac is ready say something like that?

Riccardo warned, "Stay away from my personal matter..."

He looked at the crowd as lower their head he passed a clear threat, "to Anyone who even thinks of harming my wife..... I will tear you down to each piece of flesh in your body.... making you regret why you were born....."

Then, He dragged to one of the room in this resort, he didn't listen to a single thing. I could just follow him in anger what I did wrong?

He pushed me in the room away from the door, Riccardo looked like a maniac at this point.

I said, "What is wrong with you!!"

He walked to furious, "What is wrong with you!!!.... ha!...... can't you sense your surrounding... and make wise decisions..... being a Derosa doesn't give you that much brain!!"

How dare he!

I warned, "She started it!!!... and what I did wrong!!!... are you hurt that I insulted your ex!!!"

He warned, "Wife!"

I said back, "No... if you care about her so much .... love her so much then why you entered my life!!!!"

He pulled me to himself, I felt his lips forcing on me, invading my mind. Showing his dominance and drowning me in him. I grabbed his coat hitting his shoulder with other hand.

His other hand grabbed my hand making me in his control. He was a hungry anger filled beast, who was ready to tame him?

I wasn't ready!

He parted as I bite his lips, I looked at him in tears.

His eye brow stretched. He moved back, covering his face. I sat down on the bed as my soul left my body, I was sweating cold and shivering at the same time.

I saw him whispering, "Sorry... sorry sorry...."

He rushed to me making me look at him, I tried to look away, when he sat on his knees, touching my face, "I am... sorry... I am sorry... I lost it!!..."

He grabbed my hand begging me, "Sorry... I am sorry, I can't do same mistake twice.... I lost in anger... I lost it!...."

He said looking at me, "You have no idea how dangerous it could have been... there are people just waiting for a chance to harm me... Derosa or you.... and harming you is same as death for me...."

He said, "People here are not the same as you.... they don't fight with words... but blood...."

Riccardo kept explain it to me, I kept hiding my silent sobs. I can't see him like this.... I don't know what hurts more.

He to me, "I swear... she had gun in her other hand... that's why ... Isaac stepped in.... and I... if I was late, then... then what would I done if a bullet hit you...."

He whispered, "I will burn this world if I have to live a life without you.... you need to understand.... people in this world don't think like you... you have to be careful...."

I kept my eyes down, I whispered, "I... I thought... you don't love me anymore..... angry because ... I hurt her...."

I wiped my cheeks embarrassed and somewhat angry.

Riccardo sat beside me as he said, "I only care about you...."

I grabbed his face pulling him to me, I let myself fall on the bed as my hands tangled around him, pulling him too.

I can't wait... I feel like I will die without him.

I care for him so much, I cannot lose him.

He caressed my face in between the kiss, I felt his body weight leaving me soon, I was breathless. Riccardo whispered, "You ... please... don't hate me....."

I touched is cheek as I whispered, "then.. never stop loving me..... love me however you please..."

I moved my hand on his shoulders, we both were desperate, both were needy, both were dying to hold each other.

He leaned down, "Please....can I?"

He acts like an innocent man in start.... then turns into a monster in no time... I will be honest, I love it both, how he waits for my will and then doesn't care about it too.

I pulled him closer as I whispered, "I am dying for it...."

He buried himself in my neck, leaving marks of this sinful nights. I felt his hands trying to touch my bare skin, His hand roamed on my waist.

I inhaled his scent as I said, "Make me yours.... for forever...."

He stopped looking me at me, I whispered with foggy eyes, "Please... make me yours...Riccardo...."

He threw his coat somewhere as he said, "You are already mine, Wife... all mine...."
