Dr. Enzo Romano

Chapter 16

*ENZO*

I watch her retreating figure until she takes a corner, and I can’t see her anymore. I’m still pointing my gun at Blade, and once I make eye contact with him, I lower it.

“Good to know where your head lays” Blade said with a scuff.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked as I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Not even 24 hours in this house and you choose her side, you pointed a gun at me” Blade said as he crosses his arms around his chest. “ME! Your best friend!” He yells out to me.

“That’s not fair” I say as I look at him.

“What is not fair is that we have known each other since childhood, but you choose a girl that you just met” Blade said and with that he leaves. I look at Red and he is speechless for the first time in his live. He scratched the back of his neck and walks away too. And know I’m standing alone in the living room.

 I’m currently sitting in my office doing nothing, I’m not able to concentrate so I gave up in doing any paperwork about two hours ago. I look at my phone and see one missing call from Caterina, I sigh at that, and I press her contact number to call her back.

After the second ring her voice is heard.

“Thought you had forgotten about me” She said from her line.

“Couldn’t do it even if I tried, you call me way too many times” I say and I can practically hear her rolling her eyes at my words.

“Always the charmer brother” She says, and I let out a chuckle.

“So how are things over there?” I asked and I hear her let out a breath.

“You know I have always loved Italy; you should come back some day. Remember the gazebo we used to play at? It’s still here, and mom and dad’s favorite bakery is still up and running, if I’m not wrong it still belongs to the same owners...” I hear as my little sister rambles on and on about Italy. Once mom and dad died, I haven’t gone back very frequently, it’s just way too many memories for my liking. When my sister was 18, she found out she was pregnant with her current boyfriend. Her boyfriend never left her side and after the birth of their kid, 2 years later he proposed to her, and she said yes. And then a year later they moved to Italy. My sister said that she missed the place and wanted my niece to grow up in the same place she did. Caterina is the same copy of our mother, from the golden blond curly hair to the bright green eyes of our mother. Caterina never wanted to be involved with the illegal part of the family, which is why she moved away to Italy. Even though she never wanted to be part of the mafia, she is a beast with the bow and arrow, she was once called The Golden Archer. I remember one time I had pissed her off that she threw an arrow at me, if I had not caught it in time, it would have penetrated my left arm. My sisters voice is cut off when I hear my office door being swing open abruptly.

“Enzo you need to get downstairs right now!” Sky says in a panic voice.

“I will call you back Caterina” I say, and I hung up the phone before she could give me a response. I shoot up from my chair and sprinted down the stairs and into the kitchen. I know for a fact that its Dylan, that’s why I came so fast. I look inside the kitchen, and I see five of my man standing in front of her with a smirk on their faces, she is sited on one of the kitchen stools with her right leg crossed in front of the left one. My blood boiled at the site of my man and the fact that she had a smile on her face.

One of my guys extends his right arm and tocks a strand of hair behind her hair. I see black at that moment and walk into the kitchen, once my man had heard my footsteps, they all step back. I grab onto the guy that had touched her and growl at him.

“Touch her again and I will rip both your arms off” I say to my man, and he nods his head aggressively. “That goes for everyone. Get out!” I yell out and I see them scatter away from the kitchen.

“I was going to handle the situation.” She said as she takes a sip of the glass of water, she had in front of her. In a matter of seconds, I grab her face and smash my lips into hers. I kiss her with such passion and possessiveness at the same time. It only took her a second to respond to the kiss and she kissed me back with such hunger. I pull back and see her eyes glisten.

“I was not kidding when I said no other man could touch you” I say to her still holding onto her face, but she only rolls her eyes at me. At that I grab onto her and throw her on my shoulders. She pounds onto my back, but I just start walking to my room.

“Let me down Enzo!” She says as she keeps on pounding onto my back, but I it only tickles. I get to my bedroom door, and I open the door, I gently throw Dylan in the bed, and she bounces a few times before she gets out of the bed and looks at me with anger in her eyes.

“I’m not sleeping in the same room as you, let alone in the same bed.” Dylan said with a firm tone and when I see her move past me and towards the door, I quickly grab onto her wrist and push her to the nearest wall. I lift up both of her wrist and look down into her crystal blue eyes.

“You are either sleeping here or in the basement, you decide” With that she shuts her mouth up and pouts at me. “Thought so” I say as I let go of her wrist and I walk to the bed and get in the right side of the bed. I pat the spot next to me and she rolls her eyes at me. She gets in the bed and gives me a sarcastic smile. She flops onto the bed and turns around, giving me her back. I extend my arms and wrap them around her waist and pull her towards me, she is now slammed against my chest. I place my head on top of hers and close my eyes.

“Good night my love” I say to her, and I hear her mumble a ‘good night’.
