Celebrations & Ex-Fiancé

Playlist for this Chapter: So it Goes by Taylor Swift, Feel Love by Suriel Hess.

"Nico!" I squealed when he picked me up bridal style, catching the attention of many people outside the hotel as he carried me in.

"Nico, I can walk!" I laughed, smacking his chest when he placed a peck on my lips.

"Oh I know, let me carry my wife." He said smugly, making my face heat up as the staff congratulated us and led us towards our room.

Kicking the door closed, he threw me on to the bed, climbing on top of me and kissed me, hard, while my hands tugged at his hair as he threw off his blazer.

I helped him unbutton the vest over his shirt, and then his shirt which was added to the pile of clothes on the floor.

"I'm so lucky to have you." He murmured against my lips when I smiled wide.

"And I'm luckier to have you." I said and saw his grin as he kissed down to my neck, sucking and licking, no doubt leaving hickeys for the world to see while I squirmed in his hold, moaning as his lips assaulted me.

He kissed me once again before pulling away from me, and looking into my eyes with a warmth and a smile he showed no one else but me.

"I'm not going to fuck you today." He said when I frowned, a smile still there on my lips as I looked at him confused.

"You won't?" I asked somewhat disappointed and he noticed that, chuckling as he shook his head.

"No, I'm going to make love to you today, my beautiful wife." He whispered, pecking my lips twice when my smile grew.

He pulled at my hand so I was standing with him and turned me around. His lips pressed onto my shoulder softly as his fingers slowly pulled down the zipper of my dress, letting it fall off and pool at my feet.

He kissed my back once again before making me sit on the bed, and took off my heels, starting to kiss all the way from my right ankle and upwards to my inner thigh as his hand slowly pushed me onto the bed.

"So beautiful." He murmured against my skin, kissing everywhere he could and making sure he left nothing out as his hand went behind me and unclipped my bra, throwing it aside.

He lowered his face to my chest, kissing slowly, sucking my nipples and flicking them with his tongue while I threw my head back, biting down on my lip to stop the sounds from escaping my mouth.

He moved down, kissing all the way to my panties and hooked his finger through them, dragging them down my legs excruciatingly slow before he kissed my most intimate area, making eye contact with me as he did so.

"Così bello, e tutto mio." (So beautiful, and all mine) He murmured as his thumb rubbed my clit slowly and I closed my eyes at how good it felt.

"Open your eyes, my love. Keep your eyes on me while I pleasure you." He ordered.

I complied immediately, watching him through hooded eyes as his tongue flicked my clit, and I moaned, clutching the sheets in my hands as my toes curled.

"Nico, please..." I whined as he kissed and sucked my clit, making me squirm under him as he slowly entered a finger inside me, my lips parting as I watched him.

"Così stretto per me." (So tight for me) He murmured against my skin and a moan slipped from my lips as his finger hit all the right places as his pace increased.

I felt my stomach tighten while our eyes stayed glued to each other and he added another finger making me gasp when he curled them inside me.

His fingers pumped in and out of me as I pushed my head deeper into the pillow, my eyes rolling to the back of my head before his fingers left me completely just as I was close to the edge.

I whined and saw his smirk as he sat up, briefly pecking my lips before he started to unbuckle his belt.

I watched him with rapt attention as he unbuttoned his pants and slowly slid them off, his eyes on me the entire time as he stood in his boxers only before coming back on top of me, I felt his hard bulge poking my stomach.

"I'm going to make love to you, baby, sweet and slow, but just today, hmm?" He said nuzzling his face in my neck.

I nodded as he slid off his boxers and I felt his tip at my entrance as he placed soft kisses on my neck.

"Mmhm, così buono per me." (So good for me) He murmured against my skin as he slowly pushed himself inside me, my fingers digging into his shoulders as I bit down hard on my bottom lip as he eased himself into me and released a shaky breath.

"So fucking tight." He muttered, looking deep into my eyes as he moved out of me, before sliding back in.

He did this a few times till I had adjusted and slowly moved inside me, his hands holding me in place as his lips moved against mine slowly, passionately, our bodies joined as one.

"Faster." I moaned when he hit my G-spot and heard his chuckle as he pecked my lips.

"Patience, my love, you're killing me here." He said strained, releasing a shaky breath as he thrusted into me more powerfully now, driving me to the edge while I moaned in ecstasy, feeling the tightness in my body increase.

"Nico, please... I need to-"

"Fuck, baby, cazzo aspetta."(Fucking wait) He cut me off, grunting as he pulled out before slamming into me and making my back arch off the bed, my chest pushing up into his.

As he increased his pace, I felt my eyes roll to the back of my head, his lips assaulting my neck, driving me insane before he flipped us over and I was on top of him.

"Wha-?"

"Ride me baby." He said, his hands gripping my waist tightly as I slowly start to move on top of him, sliding over his length as moans escape my mouth.

I grind my hips into his, watching his parted lips and his dark, hooded eyes clouded with lust no doubt matching my own as I move on top of him.

His eyes are fixated on me when he suddenly grabs my hips and rams himself into me, making my back arch as I bite my lip.

"Fuck." He grunts, his hips thrusting upwards as he fucks me, hard, his thrusts rough and fast, merciless and raw, when he flips us once again so that he's on top.

"You want me to fuck you harder, Dove?" He whispers against my lips when I nod, looking into his eyes that gave me that intense look.

"Yes."

"Yeah?" He asks as I bite my lip and nod.

"Yes please." I say breathlessly before his lips press against mine.

"Good girl." He chuckles and sits up a bit, throwing my leg over his shoulder as he grips my waist and pounds into me.

Oh my god.

"Nico!" I moan loudly as he slams into me once more, going in deeper and harder while my eyes screw shut at his relentless pace and rough thrusts.

He was fucking me so hard and fast, hitting all the right spots with each powerful thrust as my stomach tightened, the familiar ache in my body growing increasingly.

"Nico." I breathed out as his hand reached for my other leg and hauled it over his shoulder as he delved deeper into me.

He gripped both my thighs, his pace a bit slower now but each thrust was more calculated now, more rougher as he looked deep into my eyes.

I forced myself to keep my eyes on his as I clenched around him and he knew I was close when he lifted his body up a bit and pushed me deeper into into the bed as he changed the direction of his thrusts.

His hand reached up, wrapping firmly around my throat but not too tightly as he continued to fuck me hard and fast again.

His eyes looked down at where he slid inside me and the view of him looking so hot just fucking me made me come all over him, harder than I'd ever come before.

My legs shook as I came undone but he didn't stop, only fucked me faster as I came around him when his dark eyes snapped to mine once again and that was all it took to make me come again, for a second time.

Dear god.

My whole body trembled as I moaned in ecstasy when his lips latched onto mine, his own body going rigid.

He grunted and came inside of me, filling me up as I felt his cum dripping down my leg as he released a shaky breath and collapsed on top of me.

Slowly catching his breath, he rolled off of me and to my side, wrapping his arms around me and pulling my naked body against him, he sighed heavily into my hair, kissing my forehead.

"That was-"

"Amazing?" He cut me off when I nodded and saw his smug face.

"Thank you, I aim to please." He said when I scoffed and smacked his shoulder playfully.

"Of course you do.' I mumbled, our naked bodies flushed together as he got out of bed and carried me bridal style to the bathroom, drawing us a bath.

Both of us got in, the warm water relaxing my very sore body as he massaged my shoulders while I rest my head against him with my eyes closed.

"Thank you." He whispered when I opened my eyes, looking u at him confused.

"For what?" I asked when he smiled, pecking my lips.

"For being mine." He answered when my smile grew wider and I nodded.

"Always and forever, remember?" I said cheekily when he grinned.

"Yeah, always and forever." He murmured, kissing the back of my head as he held me against him.

After a nice and relaxing bath, he carried me to the bed which had magically changed its sheets as he pulled my naked body to his, pulling the duvet over both of us before wrapping his arms around me.

"I love you, amore mio. Sempre e per sempre." (Always and forever) He whispered, pecking my forehead as I rest my head on his chest and smiled.

"I love you too, Nico. Always and forever." I whispered back letting the exhaustion take over, my eyes closing as I gave in to the darkness.

* * *

"God, that was so exhausting."

Tell me about it.

Adrianna pretended to wipe her forehead and I chuckled at her, noting how late it had gotten after she had rambled to me how she had to take of everything with Julia, the planner, after I had 'eloped'.

Well, I kinda did.

But she doesn't need to know that.

Nico and I spent a while in each other's arms before he woke me up since I had fallen asleep on him, courtesy of him exhausting me so much.

Even though I loved every second of it.

We changed into a fresh pair of new clothes he had gotten for me before he dropped me back home and for some reason, Adriana didn't ask much, just where I was when I told her Nico took me somewhere because he had a surprise for me.

He did, though.

Apparently Jake told her that too, so she believed me and I hoped no one saw the wedding ring on my finger as I tried my best not to show my left hand too much.

"Why aren't the men here yet?" I asked when she shrugged.

"They had a few important meetings to take care of, I'm sure they'll come back soon. Don't worry, you'll be in your fiancé's loving arms by the end of the night." She said cheekily when I smiled sheepishly.

Husband now, but okay.

I nodded as she picked up the television remote and started to scroll through Netflix until we settled on a show.

I grabbed some snacks to munch from the kitchen while Adriana made the area where we were to sit 'comfortable' as she said it.

While I waited for the popcorn, I scrolled through my phone when I got a text from Nico.

"I miss you."

I smiled like a kid who just got candy as I opened his text and replied to him.

"I miss you too. How much longer?"

I waited for a few seconds before his reply came.

"I'm outside darling." He replied as my smile widened, and I dropped everything and went to tell Addy the guys were back, but she wasn't in the lounge so I headed out myself.

Surprisingly, there were no guards out but I remembered Nico taking everyone with him. But he wouldn't just leave us unguarded and without security, would he?

I shrugged the thought away as I pushed the main door open and looked out at front, the moon casting its light on the driveway and the lamps illuminating the path, but it was completely empty.

Frowning, I closed the door behind me and walked forward a bit, when I felt the hair at the back of my neck rise and shuddered, as if someone was watching me.

"Nico? Are you here?" I called out into the darkness but got no answer.

"Nico this isn't funny, you know. You're kinda creeping me out." I said rubbing my arms when a small chuckle from behind me made my blood freeze over.

"Darling, it's been so long." He said from behind me as my eyes widened.

No, it cant be.

I turned around slowly, meeting the grey eyes of the man who had haunted my dreams for the past year.

"Giovanni." I breathed out, my body growing alert and rigid under his watchful gaze as his eyes raked me over.

"It's Gio for you, tesoro. Still as beautiful as ever." He said walking a few steps towards me and I unconsciously stepped back and saw his evil smirk.

"I can see I left my mark on you." He said casually, giving me a once over before his eyes stopped on my left hand, his eyes darkening.

"Oh, and congratulations, by the way. I heard of your... engagement." He spat with distaste as he walked closer to me and my body started to tremble as I slowly slid the wedding ring off my finger.

"N-no, don't come near me!" I yelled, holding my hand out to stop him when he laughed, a dark chill running down my spine.

"Oh my darling, why do you deprive me of yourself, I love you." He said with a strange madness in his eyes when I frowned.

"W-what? Where's Nico?" I looked around in alarm, now noticing the men who had magically appeared with guns in their hands.

"Your ex-fiancé is a bit... occupied." He said shrugging when I frowned.

"What? Ex-fiancé?" I said confused when a sinister grin took over his face.

"Yes, ex-fiancé. Congratulations darling, we're getting married!" He said smugly as the fear crept into me when I felt a sharp sting on the back of my head and then, everything went black.

- N I C H O L A S - K I N G -

"Are you sure these are the ones you want to partner up with?" Jake whispered to me once again and this time, I wasn't so sure either.

Something was wrong.

"Mr. King, we assure you that this deal will benefit you a lot." The skinny blonde man told me, and when I looked at him, he averted his gaze.

"How so?" I asked, leaning back in my chair when he cleared his throat and looked around the room at the men sitting down, all of them mine.

"W-well, for starters, you would get the best quality drugs, and other than that, we'll give you our best customers along with access to our docks." The man said while I mulled over his words.

All I wanted at the moment was to go home and fuck my wife into oblivion.

My wife.

I smiled internally at the thought. I finally made her completely mine. And it would always stay that way.

I saw Jake get a notification on his phone and he looked down at it briefly before looking back up.

But suddenly a frown formed on his face as he picked up his phone in a haste and opened it, his eyes wide as saucers.

"And also-" I cut the man off with my hand and he stopped speaking immediately as Jake shot out of his chair and looked at me in a panic.

"Ace." He gulped, causing me to frown.

"Everyone who isn't family, out." I commanded and the men immediately left, leaving our family alone as Jake rushed to me and showed me his phone.

My blood ran cold at the message in front of me as my eyes looked at the picture of my girl.

"Meet my lovely bride, I think you might know her. You're invited to my wedding, don't be late!

- Your good friend Gio."

I gulped at the picture of Dove sleeping on a bed in a room. But it wasn't our room, or any other room in my estate. Just then another message popped below and I glanced at it, and saw red.

"She never loved you, by the way. It was all part of our plan."

"What sick joke is this?" I slammed the phone on the table and all the men stood up in alarm.

"Cosa c'è che non va?" (What's wrong?) Stuart asked as I grabbed my keys and headed out in a rush to get home to my wife.

It's a lie, it's all a fucking lie.

"Stuart, call home and tell me she's there. I don't want any fucking bad news." I said and he nodded, taking out his phone as my men followed behind.

Stuart and Jake got in my car as Jake drove home quickly, my eyes looking at Stuart every few seconds through the rear view mirror as he dialled again and again.

"Shit, no one's picking up." He said with a clenched jaw and I hit the dashboard with my fist as I tried to control my breathing.

She's okay, she's alright, it's just a fucking prank.

It better be a fucking prank.

As soon as Jake slammed the brakes, I ran inside like a mad man, nearly tripping over my own two feet as I looked around.

"Dove cazzo è la sicurezza?" (Where the fuck is security?) Matteo asked looking around and I frowned.

I had placed more than enough men here.

"There's no house staff either." Jake came from another side as I looked around in a panic, rushing to the room, I looked everywhere, but she wasn't there.

She was gone.

"Dove!" I called out in the hallways, hoping she would pop out of somewhere and try to scare me, but she never did.

"Baby where are you? You're scaring me sweetheart, please come out." I pleaded as I ran back downstairs.

"I found her phone in the kitchen." Matteo came running to me and I took it, quickly looking through her messages and calls but the most recent ones were from me.

Frowning, I opened the messages from me when my eyes widened as I patted my pockets for my phone, but it was there. I opened it but there were no messages from me on my phone.

"Adriana!" We heard Stuart's voice and rushed to the lounge where Adriana was lying, passed out on the floor.

"Shit, wake up Addy." Stuart picked her up and settled her on the couch.

"Call a fucking doctor and Luca, now." I ordered as Matteo got to work and Jake called Luca.

"Marcello? Where the fuck are you? Yes, get here with Luca, now, there's been an emergency." Jake said into the phone and ran his hands through his hair as I looked around with a pacing heart.

"Ace, she'll be fine. She's stronger than we think, we need you to stay calm." Jake held me by my shoulders as I let out a shaky breath.

"She's gone." I said, feeling numb, my chest constricting when my uncles rushed in with Luca, Marcello and a doctor right behind them.

"Che cazzo è successo qui?" (What the fuck happened here?) Adriana's father looked at his passed out daughter in concern before looking at us when Jake explained everything to him.

"Prendi tutti i filmati dalle telecamere, ora." (Get all the footage from the cameras, now)Matteo told Luca who nodded and got to work, taking out his laptop and typing on it furiously.

"Calmati figliolo, la troveremo. È una donna forte." (Calm down son, we'll find her. She's a strong woman) Stefano patted my shoulder as I slumped onto the couch.

"Don, it's him." Luca said and all eyes snapped to him.

"Who?" I growled lowly when someone else spoke.

"Giovanni. He was here." Adriana couched out as she struggled to get up. Stuart immediately went to her, helping her sit up as I got up from my seat and sent to her.

"What did he do?" I asked impatiently as tears welled in her eyes.

"He took her, Ace, and when I saw her passed out in his arms, I rushed to call you but one of his men got to me before I could and knocked me out." She said shakily and reached into her pocket, taking out something and holding it to me.

I held out my hand and she put in something cold in it and once I saw what it was, my demeanour faltered.

"I picked this off the ground when they were taking her away." She said as tears streamed down her cheeks while I stared fixated on the wedding ring in my hand that I gave her today, making her my wife.

"N-no. She-... She can't just leave." I whispered to myself, stumbling back a step as Jake held my arm.

"We'll find her and end that fucker once and for all." He gritted out as I nodded numbly.

"I'll fucking kill him for laying his hands on her. Get Sofia to the cells, NOW!" I shouted as everyone flinched and Matteo left with some of my men immediately.

"Find every traitor and bring them to the cells and torture them as much as you want till you get your answers and fucking find my wife!" I bellowed.

All the men nodding, scattering as I snatched my arm from Jakes grip and slumped onto the couch, holding my head in my hands.

She'll be okay, she has to be.
