Hundred and sixty six
Angelina's POV
I woke up with a huge smile on my face.
His hands were wrapped tightly around me and my body was sitting on top of his. My head was lying on his hard naked chest, listening to his slow and steady breathing.
I lifted my head to look at his face. My chest filled with warmth as I looked at his sleeping face.
I stared down at his handsome face, tight jaw, and his long black lashes which covered his eyeballs.
It was the first time I was looking at him this close. And I think he was more than handsome.
He was perfect. Perfect for me and I loved him more..
I felt lucky to be his wife and asked to marry him.
I slowly touched his face with my hand and his eyes slowly flipped open.
Suddenly I felt him, his hardness poking my thigh.
"Good morning," I said, and he shut his eyes for a second before opening them on me.
Dark blue eyes. Soft and calm. Like the calm after the storm.
Even in his sleep he looked powerful and loving at the same time.
" Good morning." He replied and I smiled. My fingers running through his short black locks.
" You are beautiful." He said, creasing my side gently with his hand.
" You are better looking." The words slipped from my mouth." How better?" He asked and I pulled my bottom lip into my mouth." Perfect.Better looking. Handsome. Sharp looking." I explained. All four words fit him perfectly.
He laughed. His deep sweet laughter vibrated through his chest and the room.
" You think so?"
" I know so."
" I'm glad there is something about me that fascinates you." He said and I shook my head.
" You mean to say something other than killing?" I knew how sick that felt but I loved every part of him like he wasn't the devil. Maybe I didn't care whether he was the devil himself.
His slide his hand down to my hip and then up to my waist. Creasing my skin softly, gently, and intimately.
" I can teach you how to shoot." He suddenly said and I pretended to be thinking about it.
" I will have to think about it," I said and his hand slides up to the back of my head. He pulled me to him and grabbed my lips.
" Clean up. Katherine is coming over." He said after pulling away.
" Katherine?" I asked. My eyes glittered in excitement.
His phone rang at the bedside and he stretched his hand to pick it up.
" She is on her way." He said.
" What! And you are now telling me?" I jumped up from his body.
I didn't care that I was naked. No I wasn't because I still had my underwear on.
I ran to the bathroom and took a quick shower after brushing my teeth.
When I stepped out of the bathroom Arnold was gone.
I brushed it off and quickly put on something before running downstairs to meet Katherine.
She was standing in the living room with Reccado.
" Katherine?" I called as I rushed down the stairs in a pair of blue jeans and a black long-sleeved top that covered my neck and the remnants sitting on my skin. Didn't have time to hide it behind makeup so I put this on to hide it and I think it's perfect.
I looked between her and Riccado wondering what was going on." Riccado was just about to leave." Katherine said and Riccado turned to me with a slight smile." Hope you recover faster " he said, nodding his head slightly before walking out of the mansion.
" Breakfast is ready. Eat before you leave." Arnold's sharp voice came from behind and I turned my head.
He stood on the stairs with one hand in his pocket.
He was wearing a plain-looking outfit. Simple. Something different from his usual dressing.
A black shirt and pants.
His hair looked exactly like it did last night. Disheveled but his eyes hadn't lost a single coldness.
" Come on." He walked down the stairs and wrapped his fingers around my wrist.
He walked me to the dining area.
Katherine followed us.
He was right breakfast was already served.
" Wait, that is my favorite," Katherine said, pointing to the cheese bread the maid just placed on the table while looking up at Arnold who was busy feeding me.
A few minutes later, Katherine excused herself to make a call.
A small smile showed on my face as I looked at my Arnold.
" Thank you." I whispered and he stopped, looked up at me." For what?" He raised a brow and I stretched myself to kiss him on the lips.
" For bringing her. I needed her."
" Her company," I added and he suddenly pulled me by the wrist and I landed on his lap.
His hardness was poking my ass.
" You want to thank me?" I wanted to turn my head to see if someone was staring at us but he grabbed my chin and forced my eyes on him.
" You are not going to fuck me here right?" I whispered, and he leaned in his seat, laughing.
" Trust me, Angel. I can do worse than that." He said and I swallowed.
" Arnold." Someone cleared their throat and I jumped down from his lap.
I frowned when I saw the doctor." He is going to change your bandage." Arnold explained.
" But I...."
" It will take only a few minutes." He got up from his seat. His dark blue eyes were on me.
I didn't have a choice.
I sat on the couch and he slowly took off the bandage." It won't leave a scar. It's heading just as it should." The doctor said as he pulled a small plaster from his bag.
" This will hurt a little." He warned, looking at Arnold who was standing beside me.
" It's okay," I assured the doctor but he was still waiting for Arnold's reaction.
He only applied the plaster to my forehead after Arnold had given him the go-ahead.
Well. That was how things work. He owns every rule and everyone worships him.
When I first woke up Arnold told me the doctor had suggested shaving a part of my hair because of the injury and for faster healing but he refused.
He told him he couldn't touch my hair without my permission and honestly. I felt touched, loved, and respected.
I loved this monster that people fear. And for some reason, I couldn't live my life without him.
" It's done." The doctor's voice cut through my thoughts and I looked up at Arnold.
The doctor bowed to him before leaving the mansion.
" This looks better." I looked at myself on my phone's screen." I don't like to see you hurt." He said, the sincerity in his voice made my smile widen.
" I know." I got up on my feet.
" I will be careful from now on." I wrapped my hand around his waist.
" Come on girl, we have a wedding to plan!" Katherine's voice echoed through the room and I turned to the door where she stood.
I stepped away from Arnold and I heard him chuckle.
" Take care of her." That was all that he said before walking back up the stairs.
And his words were directed to Katherine, which was what I thought until I saw Antonio.
