Rafeal Salvatore
Have you ever had a feeling when you feel like you heart is beating so fast that it will pop out of your chest . I felt this feeling for the very first time when I saw her . She is not a model like or a actress like beauty , she is a angel like beauty . Looking at her makes you believe that there is hope and It's not harshly shoved under a carpet . She makes me believe than even i can become a good person that even i can see rainbow through my blood tainted eyes . I still remember that day when i first saw her through a window of a coffee shop and i also remember the date . It was 22nd February 2021 . She was sitting alone with a chocolate cake on her table she was looking at it like it was some sort of treasure. I can't believe I'm saying this but i was jealous of a cake . I wanted to go and talk to her sit next to her , listen to her talk about her day . I have never done that but i wanted to do that for her . But i couldn't , i had a meeting in about 10 min i had to be there . If it was for the traffic of new york i wouldn't have caught her . I've never been more thankful to traffic ever before . Sitting in my car i knew i have to know her. In my business we can tell alot by just looking at someone and when i looked at her . I knew she was way more that just a gorgeous face , she is my queen. I never believed in love at first sight but now i think I'm starting to .
Breaking out of my daydream i told my driver to drive fast so can finish my work and get back to my queen . i mean i have to run a background check for necessary reasons and also some selfish ones . After getting back home i was still thinking about her . The day was a torture i couldn't focus 'cause my amore kept making appearances in my mind . I had already called my second in command AKA my little brother Ivan Salvatore , to get information on my love . He is a genius when it comes to finding out about people . He hacked into cafe's security cameras and asked me which one was her after 20 minutes or so i had all the information i needed.
Flashback
I am sorry amore i know i should respect your privacy but i have to . i promise this is the first and last time I'm doing this .
I open the file and see her picture she is walking on the side walk wearing a beautiful white dress making her looking like a literal angel , my angel . The dress reaches her knees . There is a butterfly pendent around her neck . I turn the page and saw her name Racheal white just like her beautiful but i think i like the sound of rachel Salvatore a tad bit better . Next i saw her age , she is just turned 18 . Her birthday was on 19th January . " She is too young what if she doesn't except me . No i will give her time she is just a teenager right now she doesn't know want she wants . I'll give her few years and then reveal myself " i said with my fingers stroking my jaw . Reading further i got to know that she's been a orphan her whole life . She doesn't know what having a family or people who love you in your life means . But there is nothing to worry about she'll know plenty when she'll come here . I'm pretty sure my family will love her too . She works at decosta's my father's friend's restaurant and also one of my favourite places to eat when i was a kid now i don't get time to go there as my father has passed down the family business to me . But still sometimes i go there . how have i not noticed her before ? No worries now i have . There is no information about her parents . What kind of parents were they. They just left her when she was 6 months old . Pathetic.
"I'll give you all the love you've is missed on . I'll spoil you , love you , cherish you for as long as live . I promise. " I said to myself. Feeling need to go to her right now and give her a hug but I can't do that . Not yet . I try compose my thoughts . Turning the page back i look at her picture , it put me at ease . Only one word leaves my mouth " bellissima ".
End of flashback
It's been 2 year since i first saw her and ever since that day i have arranged some bodyguards for her . They keep an eye on her so she doesn't get in trouble . New york is a city of crime. It breathes and lives crime . She is not safe living alone . I am proud that she made a living for herself with college but i am also mad that she ran from orphanage like that but then again how would've i met her if she hadn't . But that doesn't change the fact that it was very dangerous thing to do . Sometimes i go and watch her from a distance . There is nothing more peaceful than watching her go about her day . Everyday has same routine she goes to college and when she comes back she goes straight to the restaurant . I've noticed she doesn't have any friends i wonder why. She gets a break around 3:00 pm in that she goes to her favourite cafe "sweet n hot " the cafe where i first saw her . Then she goes back to work after her 15 min break . Then she comes back home late night because the restaurant is the most popular and one of oldest around. Then when she is sleep and sound in her bed only then I'm able to sleep. I know it sounds creepy and stalkish but this the most i can do right now i am waiting for her to be 21 before i approch her so she'd be a proper adult . Just one more year . I've been patient but my patience is running thin because of all these boys who try to approach her . It takes everything in me to not break their necks . I'm glad my amore doesn't accept any of them . It also makes me wonder why she never accepts anyone. Maybe she is waiting for someone special. Or maybe she isn't interested in dating . I don't how i feel about that .What if she rejects me like those boys ? It'll shatter my heart . I know I'm a big bad mafia guy but this little vixen holds my heart in her tiny fragile hands . I don't know when i gave her my heart but i swear to Dio every day i fall harder and every day i fight the urge to go up to her and make her fall for me just like i have fallen for her .
After sitting in my office all day thinking about my love and doing no work at all i thought its better if i just go to bed . I got up and went out of my office . I am having a feeling that something is wrong . Maybe it is because my routine is changing , i was a workoholic and now nothing seems to matter . God i have to get myself together . I was walking up the stairs when someone barges through my front door . I turn around and saw my bestfriend Damon elordi standing there with a worried expression on his face . Before i could ask anything .
" Rachel is in trouble . Deluca's men are chasing her " Damon said with frown on his face .
These words were enough for me to sprint out of the house and in my Ferrari . Damon followed me out into the car . He gave me direction and i drove like a mad man not caring about anyone not even myself i just have to get there .
" I am coming babygirl " i mumbled under my breath .
Damon explained the situation to me while we got there . She saw something she wasn't supposed to . I know they are going to kill her if i don't get there in time . That thought made me drive even faster . We got there in matter of 10 mins . I can see deluca's man running . She is running with everything she has . She is fast but i can see that she is getting tired . I drive towards them and just as i was about to pull up in front of them . Deluca's men shots a bullet . All my senses alert . I got out of my car and walk toward her. There's a fear in my heart . I look in Rachel's direction , she stops in her tracks . Thinking she got shot but she didn't. Than she drops to her knees . I think she is hyperventilating. I tell Damon to deal with deluca's men as they are trying to run away after seeing me . I know Damon will catch them and get them to the warehouse for later . But right now I'm only worried about my Bella . I go and stand in front of her unsure what to do . I have never been a situation like this. Just as i was about to say something i see that she has noticed me and is looking up at me . Her whole face is covered in tears , she is sweating so much , her eyes red and she is trying to control her breathing. She looks at me with so much focus that I'm tongue tied . Even like this she looks beautiful . Her breathing got under control . None of us has moved even a inch , she's looking up at me and i'm looking down at her . I think she wanted to say something but before she could, she fainted . I immediately crouched down to catch her . She was in my arms for the first time but this is not how i imagined it to be . I can't leave her now i have to take her with me sooner than intended 'cause now she has a target on her . Deluca's men will look for her and if they got to know that i was here to save her she'll have a Bounty on her head.
"Let's go home amore " i say with carrying her bridal style to my car . I put her in the back seat so she can sleep peacefully.
I start to drive with only one thought in my head how will she reacted when she wakes up.
I start to drive with only one thought in my head how will she reacted when she wakes up
As i pulled up in my garage i got a phone call one of my warehouse caught fire . I don't know what these bastards are doing . I mean what do I pay them for , being careless . Someone is losing their job and life today . Here I am finally near my love and they had to do this . Now i have to go there and see the whole situation.
I take my phone and message my most trusted gaurds to come to garage . When they come i tell them to take rachel and put in my room and guard the room . I tell them to handle her with care , one scratch on her and they will lose all their limbs .
I look at her one more time before going behind the wheel again and speed off . God knows when this night will end .
