STOLEN HEART

CHAPTER 4

ISABELLA



“How my life was two years ago, everything has changed radically in a way I never imagined..."

“I'm sorry for the way I treated you badly in the beginning, I regret it every day before I go to sleep, I wonder how I was able to make a girl like you cry and suffer for so long, forgive me, amore mio...", he asks with a pained and regretful expression on his face.

“Our love started crazily, I hated you more than anything in the beginning for taking away the only thing I had, but over the time I stayed here, I could see the man inside you.", I say, touching his face, and he closes his eyes.

“And you did it, feel privileged because no one has been able to win my heart so easily, I may be considered the worst person in the world because of the things I do, but you are the best version of me, I am a better person with you and all of this is because of you, and I will forever thank you for introducing me to the brighter side of life, Bella.", he spins me around the room and bends me backward before kissing me in front of everyone who begins to applaud the scene they are watching.

“My Bella...", he says smiling with his forehead pressed against mine.

“My beast...", smiling together we dance to two more songs before walking away as the staff assists in helping with the buffet served on the table.

Lorenzo and I sit at the table with his brother and sister and enjoy the unique moment before all the lights go out announcing that my second favorite part of the party had just begun.

He still doesn't understand anything and frowns when I am the only one to get up from the table and grab a microphone that one of the security guards hands me.

I walk over to where the stage has been set up for the band and carefully walk up to see that everyone is watching me intently, I smile meeting Lorenzo's still confused gaze in the crowd.

“I believe you are all having a wonderful time on this dear and beautiful evening, perhaps many of you don't know me personally, but my name is Isabella and I would like to say a few words to our dearest birthday boy, the man I love most in this world."

I hear an excited shout from Luca and everyone laughs with the animation of our friend, I sigh trying to leave the shyness that appeared to me now, and start saying everything I rehearsed before:

“Lorenzo Mancini, I wanted to say that you are the most hard-headed man I have ever met, we met in a way that was too exotic, our love flowed in a way we didn't expect, I didn't expect and couldn't imagine that I would fall in love with you, but it happened..."

“It happened in such an intense way that I found myself wanting to spend more time next to you, I found myself wanting to try to take the serious expression off your face and make you smile for once, and when I finally managed to do that I started to hope that I could do more..."

“I love you, Lorenzo Mancini, I fell madly in love with you, and I fell in love with the sweet person you could become, you said I was the light that brightened your life, but that good person was always there inside and I was just a trigger to make it happen."

“You say you hope to make me happy when you make our union official, but you need to know that I am already very happy with you, I am a happy woman to have a man like you loving me, and I can't wait to say yes in front of everyone at our wedding..."

“Happy birthday my love, enjoy your day because besides being a special day for both of us, it is a happy day because you were born, a happy day because God allowed you to live and be with me for all this time.", I say, drying a solitary tear that runs down my cheeks, I move the microphone away from my mouth hearing a lot of applause coming from the guests that stand up.

It's also at this moment that two employees enter dragging a table with a beautiful three”tiered cake that I took the liberty of asking them to prepare without Lorenzo knowing.

I come down from the stage and approach Lorenzo, who has a shy smile on his lips, yes, a shy smile, and it's the first time I've ever seen him smile like that.

“I love you too much girl!", he says before circling my waist and kissing me again while everyone sings Happy Birthday to Lorenzo who entwines our hands.

“Make a wish, baby!", he is quick to do as I say and quickly blows out the candle.

“What did you order?", I ask, but he denies it, smiling with his head, before bringing his mouth to my ear and whispering:

“It is a secret, but when it comes true you will know what I asked for, Bella...", Lorenzo kisses me once more before he begins to cut the huge cake.

The masquerade ball lasted on average for almost the end of the night, all of us and including Lorenzo also had a great time and I am thankful for that.

After the cake we celebrate some more until Lorenzo calls me to the garden outside the mansion, everyone is smiling as if he knows exactly what is about to happen but, it seems that I am not the only one who has prepared a surprise that night.

The crowd of guests remains around us outside the house, I look at Lorenzo who has an anxious expression on his face.

“What are we doing...", I am interrupted by a loud noise, at the first second I imagine it to be a gunshot, but when I raise my head I find several fireworks being let off and bursting into the sky, coloring the entire darkness of the night with colored lights and flashbulbs.

“This is very beautiful...", I murmur, but the best part comes next.

In the starry sky, the following sentence is formed: I love you, Bella.

I am still staring at the phrase when everyone around us is shouting excitedly, I feel Lorenzo's hand gripping my waist and drawing my gaze to his.

“Thank you for lighting my life, Bella...", he kisses the back of my hand while we still admire the fireworks show that is still going full blast.

We stay at the party for another hour until we begin to say goodbye to the guests, thanking them for visiting and for being there.

“Well, I think it's time for my present, amore mio...", Lorenzo whispers, grabbing me from behind when we are finally alone in the hall of the mansion.

“Wait and go to our room in fifteen minutes and you will have your present, beast...", I announce, pulling away and receiving a slap on the buttocks over my dress as I hear him dismiss all the security guards who stay inside the house.

As I enter the room, I hasten to remove my precious dress before heading to the closet and grabbing the two bags with the contents I bought on my trip to the mall today.

I put on the lingerie that I bought especially for this occasion and place each item in a separate and organized box on our bed.

I quickly put on my satin robe and hear the bedroom door being opened by Lorenzo who approaches and looks at the bed and me at the same time.

“Mr. Mancini, as tonight's birthday boy you have the opportunity to choose your gift...", I point to the little boxes smiling as he approaches and opens each one carefully.

As expected, he is dumbfounded and arches his eyebrows when he sees each object or accessory inside separate boxes with a label.

“Well?"

“I want them all...", he says smiling mischievously, but I nod.

“Unfortunately, that won't be possible, Mr. Mancini..."

He snorts, making a sad and disappointed expression that amuses me, Lorenzo's fingers run through each box, and I shudder when he picks up one of the labels.

“I want that!"

Anal and double penetration is what is written on the paper label that I wrote and that is now in his hands.

“Are you sure? You can still change it...", I swallow when he nods his head in denial.

“My most precious gift will be to have this ass only and exclusively for myself, amore mio.", Lorenzo says placing all the other boxes on top of the servant world before sitting down on the bed and slapping his lap with his hands.

I put a smile on my face pleased with his animation before I obey and sit on his lap feeling his hands land on my bare thighs through the satin robe I am wearing.

“I had no idea what to give to a person who has everything, then this idea popped into my head."

“Well, I'm sure this is the best present a man could get for his birthday, thank you, Bella...", he thanks me, kissing my lips before running his mouth down the exposed skin of my neck and bust.

His hands make me get up from his lap and stand with him still sitting on the bed, I feel myself getting hotter and hotter feeling his eyes travel over every inch of my body without delay.

“Get naked!", he orders, adjusting himself on the bed in such a way that he can see my whole body without having to touch any part of it.

I do as he asks, undoing the knot of the black satin robe before sliding it off my body.

We are like this, and I love it, he treats me with care and love at all times, but in bed, he unleashes the wild and domineering side that exists inside of him and unleashes it on me.

I'm not complaining and probably never will, but I like this mixture of personalities that only Lorenzo possesses and knows how to control perfectly.

“Turn around!"

I hear a long sigh from Lorenzo as I slowly turn around giving him the right opportunity to contemplate my body in the lacy lingerie, I bought exclusively for this moment with him.
