In Love With The Mafia

Chapter 10

Dominic's POV

When we arrive at the club the girls go straight to the bar. Lucas and I watch them order more and more shots, but just as we're about to go stop them, I get a phone call.

I answer, and it's one of my men. There was an attack on one of my warehouses near by. And they need me and Lucas to come help. f**k.

I decide the girls can take care of themselves for a bit and we quickly go. We'll be back soon.

After 30minutes the situation is finally handled. None of my men died, and we took down 10 of my rivals men.

Lucas and I quickly rush back to the club. We see Amber dancing with a random guy and Lucas's fists clench. He quickly rushes over y grabs the guy off of Amber and punches him I'm the face.

Now, where is my Belle. I look around the club trying to find her. Maybe she went to the bathroom? I rush into the girls bathroom, and a few girls give me wierd looks.

I ignore them and yell "Belle?" .....no reply. She's not kn here. f**k.

I call some of the club guards, and tell them to look for her. I decide to check outside.

I burst into the alley to find Belle kissing another man. I run over and push him off. To my surprise Belle falls down right away after he lets go.

I look at her, and she looks back at me with half closed red eyes. She's f*****g drugged.

I take out my gun and shoot the guy in the head. How f*****g dare he. Men like him shouldn't be alive.

I scoop Belle up and rush over to my car. I text Lucas what happened, and he says he and amber will take a taxi.

I rush off back to my place. I swear, my gattino attracts every single guy who sees her. I should never have left without at least leaving a guard there.

I jump out of the car and cradle her in my arms. She's so beautiful.

That's when I decide she needs to start training. She needs to know how to defend herself if I'm not there.

A month later

Belle's POV

Since that night at the club Dominic insisted I started training. I was really excited at first, but my trainer is not so lovely. It's the extremely buff and scary guy I saw when I first came here.

I'm in the middle of a fighting lesson where my teacher Damon is supposed to be teaching me how to properly punch.

But he hasn't taught me any techniques and just tells me to fight him. It's like he loves beating me up.

Every day after the training I have bruises everywhere. But I am grateful, since I have gotten stronger. It's just I wish he was a bit gentler and taught me more techniques.

"Focus Ms Winter" he sneered after landing s punch to my ribs. I double over and hold my side. That really hurt.

I start to right myself and go in to kick his balls, but he grabs my leg and throws me on my back. Then he kicks me in the ribs again.

I breathe out and stand up. My ribs are pounding. "Are you hurt ms Winter?" He says with mock concern, coming to my side.

When he's close to me I react suddenly and throw a punch. It hits him in the nose. I don't stop there. I have him stunned now.

I punch him again in the jaw then the stomach. He tries to punch me, but I block him and kick his groin. He falls to the floor groaning. His nose is gushing blood.

I lean over him "are you hurt Damon?" I say, using the same time he used with me.

He looks up and glares at me. Then I find myself on the floor underneath him. I try to wriggle out, but he holds me firm and starts squeezing my neck.

I start to see black and my hits on his arms grow weaker. Just when I'm about to black out he gets up and walks away.

I lie there for a few minutes trying to get my breath back. My neck is extremely tender. It's going to be bruised. Turtlenecks here I come.

You guys may be wondering why I don't tell Dominic about him. I don't want to worry him, and I feel like Damon being tough on me is good.

But this is a bit too far now. He almost knocked me out. I get up and my head starts spinning and pounding as well as my ribs.

I feel terrible. I head to my room to take a shower. I feel the warm water cascading down my back and soothing my sore muscles.

After a 20 minute relaxing shower I get ready for dinner. I have dinner with Dominic almost everyday. He has opened up to me and I have to say I really enjoy his company.

I haven't seen Amber since the day at the club, but we stay in touch everyday over FaceTime.

She and Lucas have started dating. I'm happy for them, they seem very content.

I decide to wear some loose pajama shorts and a oversized hoody. Then I remember my neck, so I put on a turtleneck  under the hoody.

I leave my hair down and don't bother to dry it. I head downstairs, but not before putting on my favorite huge knee-high fluffy socks.

Nic is already in the kitchen eating. "Hey! You started without me you dickhead!" I scream at him. He looks up at me and smiles.

"Hello to you too gattino" he says in his sexy Italian accent. I scowl and sit down beside him. I take a fork and take a big piece of his chicken.

Now he scowls at me and takes me hand with the fork and makes me feed him the chicken. I huff in annoyance and get up to get my own food.

He asks me how my day was and I tell him how Damon taught me how to punch. "Ah is that why there are bruises all over your legs?" he asks with a small frown.

"No no, I uh fell down the stairs" I quickly say. "You WHAT" he roars and I facepalm myself for making up such a dumb excuse.

"Come on Nic it's not such a big deal I'm fine" I say while rolling my eyes. "Yes Belle, but you could have been hurt" he says angrily. "So, that's life" I tell him simply.

The mood is now tense and we don't say anything for the rest of the meal. When we're done I take out plates and hurry to the kitchen, avoiding his gaze.

I feel him down after me, but I just ignore him. I hear him sigh "listen to me gattino, I'm just worried about you. I'm sorry for overeating. Se ti succedesse qualcosa, non potrei vivere."

(if something happened to you, I couldn't live.)

"It's fine, and what did you say? You know I don't speak Italian." He laughs and just puts his hands around my waist.

He turns me to face him and we stare into each other's eyes. His eyes are gorgeous and unique. I could look into those pools of green forever.

He starts leaning in and I close my eyes, caught in the moment. I've never kissed anyone willingly before.

When his lips finally touch mine I feel elated, like I could do anything. His lips mold perfectly to mine and he starts twirling his tongue around mine.

I moan into the kiss and blush embarrassed. But apparently he liked that, as he started getting rougher and more needy. He dominates my mouth, biting my lips and his tongue explores every inch of my mouth.

I try to keep up with him, but he's to rough. He picks me up and I straddle him, whimpering when I feel his d**k poking my entrance through our clothes.
