But only for so long, so long, so long

Mason

I’ve been searching for Alaina since she left campus, I well and truly messed up any chance I had with her. Elijah was pissed I didn’t adhere to his plans to destroy Luca Romano and do away with Alaina after she filed for divorce. Seeing her day in day out was killing me.

I needed her close me, to smell her perfume, to touch her delicate skin next to mine snd I made love to her. All I had to do was get rid of Luca Romano anc ge thin out of the picture. I knew she had fallen in life eith him that’s the only reason I could think that she was divorcing Elijah. But, once I started to stalk his many online accounts I discovered he was cheating on her left right and center making me re-think of doing away with her, he was a jerk a big fat ass jerk that liked to make others lives miserable, he was always good at that even when we were kids, I’d asked a well known detective and friend to look into his and Alaina’s marriage and if was all real or jsut fake.

He agreed and started tailing Elijah taking indiscreet photos of him with different women. I wondered if Alaina had to go day to day with this bull s**t. I truly felt sorry for her especially when I found out the marriage was a farce and it was a contract between the two of them becasue she was flat broke and after her parents accident and they’d passed on she had a s**t load of debt to pay out he’d offered her the contract and agreed even though the bastard had slipped in that he was aloud to f**k anytng that walked, but she wasn’t she had to play the part of a dueful wife to be at his beck and call when ever he needed it.

I understood he treated her like a slave in their home and he never respected her even at work he’d f****d women in his office not caring is he saw or not. He’d bet ehr to a pulp raping her in their wedding night, this got my blood boiling, she had reported it but with his high status she knew noting woodland be done, I saw every photo of the assault it was,sickening I wondered if it had still been going on when he enrolled her into the university.

Through clenched fists and gritted teeth I went agianst him and his wished and made sure she got the education she so craved and deserved. He was still with whores whom he was pounding into. She was better off here and far away from him as possible. I wasn’t going to do away with her for something so petty. I had fallen in love with her, there was something that had attracted me to her the moment I laid eyes on her, and it never once faded. I needed to get Luca Romero out of the picture so I could claim her as mine. I had a good plan to get her to be mine I was going to seduce her when I had her all alone in my office and helping me with my proper work thst bored me so much I knew it wouldn’t with her here with me. What I couldn’t believe was that the little prick had put cameras in my goddamn office so he could watch me and make sure I wasn’t doing anything inappropriate with Alaina.

I’d found them by coincidence. I knew the type of camera they were and knew exactly how to get them off line without either of them knowing I didn’t even know if Alaina knew about the camera’s but I wasn’t willing to share that with her I needed to get Luca out of the way what I didn’t expect was him to tell me she would no longer ge attending my university anymore. My plans had al of one to shits and I was angry and beyond pissed that I’d paid ether fees unitl the end of the year and shenwas up and leaving I had to do something but I could never get close to her become Luca was always there and she never came to the office agian.

I searched for five years for ehr not knowing which university she had enrolled in and knowing Luca Romero he wouldn’t let me get in an inch of her. Whets I didn’t know I’d thst they had broken up six months after and I had no clue where either if them were. I got to knwo shenwas internng st his father’s company which surprised me in the very least as she wasn’t on good terms with Luca but Alaina and his father were really close that close once the four years were up he was sending her to Romano Industires to become the new CoCeo something I didn’t expect her to agree to as she had her heart set in fashion. Then I knew I had no chance to get close to ehr as Seh would be working alongside Luca though they were no longer an item he would protect her woth all his woth and I wouldn’t get a look in, maybe I should give up now.

Elijah

I’d tired to keep tabs on Alaina after that i***t best friend of mine chose not to respect my wishes and defy me every opportunity he got. I knew there was something wrong when he chose not to do away with Alaina, I’d tried to drip her form workign it had failed, I’d put a hit out on her and it had failed. Now all I needed was her back with me. I was lost with out her. I realise that now. I acted like a heartless jerk screwing all of those women when I had one to come home to every night. I should’ve never have had that damn contract written up and helped her out. She was the bsst P.A, I’d ever had the rest after her were nothing special I kept comparing them to her same. I've got it really bad. I poured another whisky chaser sipping it, I really f****d uo my life.

My father, well my father is a complete asshole he f****d so many women behind my mothers back I have no idea how many siblings I have. They divorced years ago when my mother caught him cheating on her with his secretary. She filed for a divorce immediately. She left the country she was only there cause of my father and she told,me I was so much like him it scared her. I guess she was right because I had done to Alaina exactly what my father had done to my mother all of those years ago. Now I regret every bad decision I ever made and I just want her back to apologise for my despicable attitude towards her. I wanted to begin again. I have it on hearsay that her and Luca are no longer, they had a big falling out five years ago and neither of them had spoken to each other since now was my chance to get her back and get her to love me before Luca finds her and makes her fall for him again. Not a chance pal, she is mine and mine alone. I’ll make sure to get her back before you even have chance to. You’ve lost this time Luca Romeo and I’ll make sure you never see or hear from Alaina ever agian. Once I’m done with you you will with you never laid eyes on Alaina, my Alaina.

I swore that I would try

Lucas

I loved this girl so much, she’d been working alongside me for around six months now. My father really liked her, so much so he made it clear to make her my bride so I Could take over all his offices here in London. We hadn't seen hide nor hair of Elijah Rivera thank god for that. It was also becoming suspicious that we hadn’t even had an inkling of where he was. All I knew is I couldn’t take any more chances of him just turning up and ruining things. Me and Alaina had gotten back on track over these past six months and had started seeing each other again. I couldn’t let him ruin Eing whatever chances I had to marry this girl. They were divorced but we all knew that very well but Elijah we all knew wouldn’t just give up. We knew right from past experiences he had already tried to stop her from working in my father’s restaurant but that was a big no no. Did he not realise who we were? No one and I mean no one goes against the Italian Mafia.
