Pain and Pleasure

Playboy found love

Women are just as capable as men. They are the most underestimated yet powerful weapon of destruction. Hope was raised by her Italian father who was a leader of a mafia gang. She learned how to fight and shoot the second she learned how to walk. She always blamed herself for her mother's death because her mother died giving birth to her. "Babygirl, both your mother and I have made peace with it, it was both our choice to give up your mother's life for you" her dad said trying to comfort her when she first found out. It was the truth, her mother died happily because she couldn't imagine a better reason to give up her life. Don, Hope's father came to an agreement with Alaia (Hope's mother) only because he knew that if he chose otherwise, Alaia would make an enemy out of him or probably commit suicide. He rather have one than to lose both his lover and child. 

Don has a soft spot for Hope, so he let his brother, Hope's uncle train her. He was given instructions to be fair and brutal to her like any other trainee, and if possible be more harsh on her. Don wanted to prepare his daughter for a cold world. He wanted to ensure that his daughter was not to be bullied or harassed by any man in the a sober state. Don was always around to attend parent meetings and everything with her daughter.

Hope hated those meetings because women were doting and drooling over her father. It disgusted her how her female teachers tried to be nice to her because they were head over heels for her dad. "Ms. Hales, I am not hesitant to bring my mother here if you want your bloody ass dragged to death's door!" Hope suddenly snapped at her teacher in Italian. She is a well mannered lady, but push her buttons and she'll turn into a beast in less than a second. Students were distant from her because of her status, actually her father's. 

Eighteen years later, Hope was sent to live with her mother's identical twin sister, Mara. Don knew that he was going to be involved in a gun war with the Russians and he knew they would go for Hope. If vulnerability was a person, it would be Hope. Mara lived in the states, Princeton, New Jersey. Mara spoke fluent English even though she was Korean, so was Hope's mother. Although Hope never spent time with her mother, she purchased books and utilized the internet to learn how to speak Korean, and doing this for nine years almost got her to the fluent level. 

Mara was shocked and excited when Don suddenly called to tell her that Hope was coming down to live with her for a few days. She was informed of the time and day that Hope would arrive and was told that a few of his men will arrive with Hope to ensure her safety and they were all dressed in black tuxes. Mara was at the airport an hour before the plane finally arrived. She never saw Hope her entire life. When Hope walked into the waiting area, she dropped her bag and her eyes suddenly oozed out a pool of tears when she saw a woman that looked exactly like her mother looking around. Mara was looking around when she caught sight of pretty grey eyes filled with surprise and longing staring at her. Mara and Hope started running towards each other and embraced each other with a super long hugs. "You got only the good genes from your mother baby" Mara broke their long hug to take a better look at her lovely niece. She was not lying, almond shaped eyes with a hint of epicanthal fold, wavy long dark hair and hourglass body figure was genetically passed down to her "You are very beautiful!" they said at the same time then laughed off the coincidence. 

Mara was financially stabled, she owned 90% of the family business. Their family's house was left to her when her only sibling, Alaia, married off and went on her own. It was a white villa with 7 master bedrooms rooms on each of the two floors. She was different from her twin sister when in terms of mentality. Mara was a workaholic that never took interest in boys. Her dream was to travel and explore the vast world alone. Actually, she wanted to do all those things with Alaia, but she had other plans for her own life. 

Hope was enrolled into Princeton University, and the next day was going to be her first day of school. Hope was kind of worried about her father but at the same time, she was so glad to finally meet her mother's cyclone. She needed a few days to get used to the idea that this sweet woman that she was living with looked exactly like the woman in the photos with her dad. Mara would just laugh at Hope every time she stares at her with shock and love in her eyes from time to time. 

They went shopping for clothes, school blazers, white blouses, and school materials the day before school. Mara made sure that Hope visited her favorite diners and malls today. She also made her drive from place to place. On their way home, both of them were drained on energy. It was at nine when Hope got up from bed because she missed her father. She knocked on her aunt's room and it didn't take long for the other side of the door knob to be unlocked and opened. " Hi mo---aunty, uhm did my dad leave any of his contact information to you?" she asked hoping that her aunt would help her out. Unfortunately, she was told that Don contacted Mara via a burner phone and she can no longer trace the call. 

Every time Mara would feel stressed and pressured, two big scoops of caramel vanilla ice cream would make everything better. She walked downstairs to check for ice cream but she only found chocolate flavored ones. She picked up the car keys hooked on the counter side and went outside. She dialed a few numbers while making her way into the car, "Aunty, I'm going for a drive to get a few things off my mind" she said once the person on the other end of the line picked up. After like six seconds her aunt finally answered "Please don't stay out late, tomorrow is your first day of school; actually it is in a few hours and use the money or cash in the wallet under the passenger seat." then they ended the call. 

Hope ended up in a small café and she ordered a vanilla ice cream with caramel topping. She sat alone by the window side when she heard the cashier told someone that his card is declined. She walked over and offered to pay the man's order then walked back to her seat as if she was not interested in the man. On the other side, Alex was shocked.

Alex has been travelling back and forth between New Jersey and Russia. His father was a Mafia leader and was no longer with Alex's mother, a native of New Jersey. Alex was not bothered by the fact that Hope looked at him, but the fact that she was the only girl that ever landed her eyes on him and managed to move her pupils from his face in less than a second. Other girls would just glance and drool for a really long time before he makes a move to get them into his bed.

Alex felt like this was his karma, because he had never seen such exquisite beauty. Not until the waitress came with his caramel milkshake did he notice that he was drooling. "Well that's a first" he mumbled to himself. By the time he came back to reality, the girl was nowhere to be seen. He ran outside of the Korner's café and saw a red rover leaving. He couldn't stop the car so he memorized the license plate, "ANGEL21". 

Alex was also up because he was concerned about his father. He knew that his father lied to him when he had to come back for school. Although he was told that everything was in good condition, he sensed that there was something going on. 

The next day was the first day of school. Alex was a sophomore and Hope had taken a few classes university level through a program. Her credits were transferred to Princeton and she took most of her classes with sophomore students. Hope had a special newbie orientation and she already got her schedule beforehand. The principal was her mother's first cousin, but she was still not familiar with him, not that Mr. Stein would show any familiarity towards her. He looked strict and cold. 

A few minutes before the bell rang, Hope heard girls suddenly screaming and saw them running towards the entrance. She was not jumped by the sudden noise because she's been trained her whole life and gun fires are way louder. Hope was sort of curious as to why they were screaming, so she just stood in front of her locker and looked at the direction that they were running towards. She  was the only girl left in the hallway. After a while, they all made way for a young man and Hope got her answer. She thought in her head that he must be the "Roman Russo" of Princeton University. 

She turned away from there and got a few books from her locker for her classes before lunch break. Alex looked at her from afar and was drawn in to her well defined figure that was still visible under her blazers. Alex was on his way to her when a Professor Baldwin stopped him for a little chat. He was totally distracted when Baldwin was talking to him. "She must be a freshmen, a new transfer, or someone had been working out over the long summer" was all that he was thinking of. 

The bell rang and Alex excused himself from his boring conversation with Professor Baldwin and went to hang out at the gym. Girls were flexing their boobs and asses in front of Alex but he was thinking of the girl from the café last night. She had mesmerizing and beautiful grey eyes. She had her long dark wavy hair down and her pouty lips were so sexy. Alex felt his pants tightening by the second and he knew that he needed to let it out. He walked over grabbed the first girl he got to and took her in the girls bathroom. The girl felt so lucky and made all the other girls jealous. 

Although Hope loved vanilla and caramel ice cream, she felt weird in her stomach because she ate it later at night. She excused herself from class and went into the restroom. She was done flushing the toilet when she heard some people barging in. As she walked out to wash her hands, she heard someone moaning from the stall right next to the one she used. She was not intimidated by it. Hell, if high school kids in Vatican City could do it, there is no doubt that University kids would be doing it too. "Ewww, shameless rascals" she spat out louder than she thought. She rushed out right after she said that.

The next second, the two people in the third bathroom stall stopped and Alex walked out of there right after he fixed his pants. Alex and the girl both heard what Hope said clearly and were both offended by her words. He got out of the bathroom and saw Jordan, his bestfriend standing in front of the faucet. "Hey, did  you see the girl that just walked out of the restroom?" He wanted to show her what a shameless rascal he is. "Yeah, she might be a new transfer, I know her face but not her name" Jordan replied. "If you see her, make sure you let me know". 

After school Jordan and Alex were hanging out under the oak tree in the parking lot with a couple girls. Hope was using the restroom again so she walked out of the school after like fifty minutes. When she reached the parking lot, only Jordan and Alex were the only ones hanging out under the oak tree. She didn't care about them, she just walked straight to her car. As she was walking Jordan saw her first. "Wow, she is beautiful, wait a minute". Alex turned his head towards the left and saw her. His pupils expanded, "It's her!". Jordan and Alex said at the same time. Alex was curious and jealous "What the f**k do you mean J?" Both of them did not expect Alex to snap like that. "She's the girl that came out of the restroom, and by the way why'd you wanna know? Did she do something?" Jordan subconsciously stood up as he was intrigued by Alex's behavior. "Nothing, just perfect, so damn perfect" he said not taking his eyes off her. The red rover started and she mumbled "ANGEL21".

Alex suddenly stood up and told Jordan that he was leaving. He chased after the red rover. Hope was not naïve, she was always on guard. She noticed a black Bentley following her so she didn't go home, but went to the café. Right after she parked she sat in the car for a long time. Alex couldn't wait any longer so he got out and walked over to her. When Hope saw the man walk over to her car, she pulled out a Glock 32 from underneath her seat. Alex was about to knock on her window when she suddenly opened the door with such a strong force that Alex fell down. Although Alex had also been trained, he had let his guard down because Hope was an angel in his eyes. Maybe he forgot that angels are also powerful mythical creatures that could smite an entire population. He was on the ground when Hope hurriedly got out of the car and put the gun to his head. "Tell me why the f**k are you following me! You are not one of my dad's men!" Hope whispered in his ear. "Well, that's sexy! Easy baby, I only want to murder you.....in my bed" Hope immediately let go of him after he said that. Hope knew that he was not a murderer, he was a wild beast. 

"You will stay away from me if you want to live longer." Hope denied the attraction she had for this stranger because she was raised to have a very big heart made of ice. "Well too bad I always get what I want sweetheart". After he said that, Hope was all fired up with disgust and hatred. "Believe me, I will put three bullets between your eyes, stop playing! Chase some another girl and get a chance at life boy!" She did not know that she was attracting him even more. Alex was scared but part of him knew that Hope would not kill him. He still walked towards her. He slowly and fearfully put the gun away and open the backseat to throw it in. "Listen, Hope, I promise I will not waste your time, i am not looking for a plaything or whatever you're assuming. I want a person that is down to be my lover and best friend, someone who would take a ride with me and talk about life. These women around me are not built for such figures. You may not believe it but they also objectify me" 

"Oh yeah? and what makes you think that I am the type of girl that is built like that? Because let me tell you boy, I was built to kill and absolutely not for feelings" Hope was about to walk away when her arm was pulled back by Alex. It was a bold move. Perhaps he was too comfortable that he didn't think that Hope would break his hand. "Owww! baby! What was that for?" Hope felt guilty for a second and her expression soften for a fat second before she masked it with her resting bad b***h face. " That is what you get! Don't touch me again! And who are you calling baby? I am definitely not a baby!" Her voice was getting louder by the second because she got angrier. 

"I know, but you are my baby, mine" He said with a wide smile as he pats his chest when he said that Hope was his. Hope suddenly felt strange, she was heating up, she was blushing! Alex chuckled evilly when he saw how much effect he had on her. He was tempted to do more, but he could only hug her. He was turned out when he felt her soft body against his muscular self. He could feel her plum breasts rubbing against his hard chest as she tries to move around from his hold. She was all red when she felt Alex's manhood poking between her thighs, but she dare not say it out loud. After a while, she struggled aggressively until she could push Alex away from her.

"See, I know guys like you! You switch girls like switching clothes, but I guarantee you that my dad don't have to slice you up and bake you in the forno for me because I will do it myself!" She said. "Oh baby I know, but you got absolutely nothing to worry about" Alex said as he took two steps towards her to close the gap between them. He bent down and kissed her lips. The kiss was smooth and lovely, Hope did not move at all. It was her first kiss and it was amazing! "Never, ever do that again!" Hope said when she came back to her senses. Alex bent down again and kissed her again. "Are you sure? You seem to enjoy it!" He was not lying. She put her hands around his neck and deepened the kiss.
