Our Mission

Chapter 16

- Isabella's POV -

My eyes slowly open to see myself still in Lorenzo's room. I looked around and stopped my gaze at a pair of honey-colored eyes filled with concern.

I smiled trying to fight the urge of getting up and biting him from how cute he looked all worried.

He was sitting by my side holding onto my hand, so sweet.

I felt something wet drip down my face until I looked up to see a damp towel on my forehead. I opened my mouth about to thank him but he pushed away and walked over to the bathroom before I could get anything out, jerk.

I gripped the wet towel taking it off my forehead and sat myself up on the bed. My head was still pounding from the fall so I quickly laid myself back down onto Lorenzo's comfy bed, turning to my side so that I was now facing the door to the bathroom.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. The smell of his freshly washed covers filling my nose.

As I waited for Lorenzo to finish up all I could think about is how stupid I looked, I couldn't imagine how my body looked falling straight to the ground. The whole room probably shook, embarrassing.

What if he thought I died so he held my hand waiting for a shooting star to pass by his window so he could make a wish and I magically wake up like in those Disney movies.

I've passed out plenty of times due to stress, but those times were when I was alone or with Valerie never in front of a tall, muscular, sexy Italian mafia boss.

My thoughts were quickly interrupted by the bathroom door flying open. My eyes shot up to see Lorenzo walking out. The droplets of water from his wet hair ran down his amazing sculpted body. My eyes traveled down further to see a towel wrapped around his hip, low enough to expose his defined v line.

"Are you done?" Lorenzo questioned rudely as he looked down at me, I felt a blush creep on my face from the embarrassment of getting caught checking him out.

I looked away totally ignoring his question as I sat back up against his headboard now that I felt better. The corner of my eye taking a glimpse of him turning away so stared back at him, watching his back muscles flex with every move he made, why am I staring so much.

"I'm not pregnant or anything, I made sure to take a test a few days after, I usually pass out when I'm stressed" I blurted out.

"Didn't ask" He muttered walking out his closet, he was just wearing a pair of black sweats. He looked down as he ran the towel that he had wrapped around his hip through his hair. 

I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his rude response.

"You could be such a moody self-centered bitch" I finally spoke up crossing my arms in front of my chest. He paused before throwing the towel at the end of his bed and turning his body so that he was now facing me. I watched as his sharp jawline clenched and his eyes stare into mines coldly.

"Isabella-"

"No,no, Isabella yo, un minuto eres de repente mi novio y extrañas y quieres besarme y al siguiente eres esta perra de corazón frio, toma tu maldita mente ya" I shouted at him. [Translation: No don't you Isabella me , one minute you're all of a sudden my boyfriend and you miss and wanna kiss me then the next your this cold heart bitch, make up your fucking mind].

I'm aware that he doesn't understand Spanish and I could care less. If he cared so much about what I said he can go search it up as I did.

Well...I'm not sure if it counts but while he was gone I played an 8 hour video that claims to help you learn Italian while sleeping. I mean it didn't work because I would've been fluent already but I did learn the basics like "I love you" and "I miss you" which I don't ever see myself using anytime soon.

This man had no consideration, he was having me yell after I passed out, like a "are you okay" or a "do you need anything" would've at least been nice but nope he was back to being annoying with his stupid mood swings and mixed signals.

"Non so cosa cazzo hai appena detto, ma dirò qualunque cosa cosi pensi che io stia parlando di merda" He said crawling up the bed so that he was hovering over me and his arms placed on either side of me.  [Translation: I don't know what the fuck you just said but I'll say whatever so you think I'm talking shit].

He lifted a hand off the bed and ran the pads of his fingertips up my arm to my collar bone causing painful chills throughout my body.

"Please don't start with me today" He mumbled in my ear. I could hear the sadness in his voice but that didn't stop the wetness between my legs, why am I like this.

He lifted his head from the side of mines and brushed the strands of hair out my face tucking them behind my ear. His eyebrows were furrowed and his eyes were soft just like they were earlier making my heart melt.

He looks so sad, maybe tired ?

I was hesitant at first but decided to wrap my hands around his neck pulling him towards me. I felt his body tense up from the sudden action but I didn't let it stop me from laying my head on the crook of his neck. I closed my eyes inhaling his delicious masculine smell and ran a hand up to his neck through his silky hair before scratching on his head gently.

He needed a hug.

His heavy body finally relaxed on mines, suffocating me for a bit until he switched our positions. My head was now laying on his hard chest and his hands wrapped around my waist pulling me closer to him.

The warmth of his body automatically heated mines. I trailed my fingertips along his stomach and watched his once rapid breathing finally become steady.

"What's wrong Lorenzo," I asked softly snuggling my head further onto his chest.

"When is your birthday and How come you didn't mention it to me bella?"  He asked completely ignoring what I said.

I inhaled then exhaled letting the question go away with it, I wanted to ask him again but don't want to come off as too pushy, If he was ready he would tell me, well hopefully.

"If I'm being honest I forgot and it's in 2 days" I shrugged even though I knew I still wouldn't have told him after Violet reminded me.

"I'll have the exclusive area in my club cleared for your birthday, you can have your party there" He started rubbing my tummy which only caused ticklish butterflies to fly around inside.

"Yeah because I want to celebrate my 23rd birthday at the place I got kidnapped," I said sarcastically. I removed my hand off his chest to grab the pillow beside me and lightly threw it at him. He didn't bother taking it off but instead, just let out a chuckle.

I couldn't help but smile, I've never heard him genuinely laugh, I like it.
