Chapter 141: Giovanni's Girlfriend

Trina's POV

She sighed deeply and adjusted herself, and this woman straight up assaulted me with her beauty. It's not something I can stop talking about because it keeps happening.

“I'm just wondering, is he stressing you out?”

“What?” I was surprised that she would ask me that. Stress me out? I'd like to say it was the exact opposite at this point.

“I saw that you guys are a thing again on your social media. It's been three years. Are you okay? You're really back together?”

I was about to freak out.

“Do you know something? Yes, I think I'm okay. Yes, we are back together.” I responded truthfully, biting back a smile. Thinking about Giovanni made me so happy, the darn butterflies, the whole thing.

That man is my whole life at this point. I can't imagine another break up or another abrupt disappearance, I would just kill myself.

I watched a faint smile assault her lips. In another dimension where I was a lesbian, I would chase this woman and make her mine whether she liked it or not. Nico is so lucky.

“And you love him? I'm just worried. I know that he loves you so much–”

“You do?” Why would she know something like that? Sure it was glaring three years ago, but now? I cannot believe they've all been in touch with that asshole and he just kept me in the dark, sad and lonely.

“Yes, we all saw how he struggled after his sister's death. I believe he's told you. It was a whole mess and I'm sorry we all kept it a secret from you. It was his wish, he wanted to come correct as a whole man. I just wonder if his methods weren't too harsh because when it comes to these men? They do crazy stuff. Like my friend Lara, I'd like to think her husband Matteo is the craziest man I've ever met.”

She shook her head like she was genuinely terrified of him. Sure I've heard of how he stalked her for over a year and stuff.

Eva was so blind. Nobody and I repeat, nobody is crazier than Nico Moretti, he's like the OG of crazy. He's giving, ‘been there, done that’ energy, and he's just resting now, settling in. But in his prime, he was a crazy ass man, she had just forgotten, so in love and shit.

I just nodded because there was no convincing her that her husband only cared about her and his kids, but yeah, he was actually calmer now. Talk about growth.

“I'm fine, he didn't hurt me or anything, he was actually begging and begging. I do love him. I love him very much. Let's just say a part of me was waiting for him, so I accepted and agreed to be his girlfriend again.”

Well he was pretty forward about what he wanted, but whatever, I like my man.

Her smile was wide.

“I'm just so proud of you both for finding yourselves. I mean I saw the whole love story unfold. The tension between you two back then used to be intense to even witness. It was funny to see him struggle to pretend he didn't like you, he almost got me and my husband. Well, I was just worried.”

“Thank you so much, I really appreciate your care. I do have a question though. I heard you made Nico propose like three times. How did you do it?”

Curiosity was killing me. I mean it was no shocker there, if you see her you would propose every day. She smiled hard as if she was remembering all those times.

“I really don't know. He had a mind of his own, and he was clearly obsessed with me. Well, I did marry him anyway. I guess we appreciate an unrelenting man.”

We laughed and that's when my two beautiful babies ran into the house, immediately making it a noisy place.

Tiara ran straight into her mother's arms while George stood beside me, just staring at me. Their mom asked them how school was and everything and noticed George staring and smiled.

“What did you charm my son with?” She asked, still smiling.

“I'm not sure.” I laughed awkwardly. It felt good to be appreciated by a child. It meant that my heart was pure, even though I'm somewhat a murderer and shit.

We chatted for a while as I carried George, but I had to be on my way, and he noticed.

“You're leaving?” He spoke, his voice soft, his face conveying disappointment and sadness.

“Yes.” I replied, nodding.

“Can you stay a bit longer? Please.” He kept begging. At this point I couldn't understand the sudden fascination he had with me. I had already stayed as long as I could because of him. Giovanni would not find it funny, he would not understand that a child held me back, and he would unfortunately be jealous of a child. This is my cross.

“I have to go see a friend, so I can't, dear.” I was trying to convince him.

“But I don't want you to.” Evangeline had to step in because at this point I was in a tight spot.

“George, please understand, Aunt's busy. Should I call Aunt Lara on the phone instead?”

He nodded, and I put him on the ground like he wanted.

Tiara was giving him a look depicting disgust, ‘like what's his deal?’. It's so funny how cute and mean she is at the same time.

I had to say goodbye to Evangeline. Oh, Tiara isn't speaking to me anymore by the way. She said I agreed to be stolen by her brother after all we shared. Yeah, she's going to give these men a hard time. I look forward to it. She's so standing on business.

It was a struggle to locate Giovanni's office, but I did, and I'm not sure why he's calling it an office. It looked like an empire somewhere between a Russian prison and a palace. I couldn't understand what I was looking at, honestly.

I was let in, obviously, because I'm the new queen of this establishment, or maybe because he told them I was coming, I'm not sure. God, I'm too ahead of myself.

I met him speaking to a group of young boys in an open field. It was like a training centre of some sort. Yeah he's clearly still into physical violence. We fit each other.

I just waited at a corner for him, watching him flex his muscles. He's so fucking hot it's crazy. His sweat, everything drove me insane. I was shamelessly ogling at my boyfriend.

He soon noticed my presence, snapping his head to me and ordering me to come stand before him.

When I reached him, he smiled and rubbed his sweaty body all over me. How annoying. He then introduced his boys to me.

He told them I was his girlfriend, and that I was a skilled fighter. He was basically gassing me up, and I grinned, my ears a bright red as he kept going.

Giovanni is so proud of me, I couldn't possibly want anything else.
