They arrived at her family home in less than an hour. Matteo was silent throughout the journey, he didn't know what to say so he just kept himself quiet.
Amara was thinking about her father as she walked through the grand entrance. She remembered all the nooks and crannies of their large house where she would play as a child with her dad. At that moment it all looked meaningless. She didn't feel happy there anymore, not without her dad.
"Hey, where's Peter?"Amara greeted Matteo as she walked out of the bedroom in nothing but a very expensive looking lingerie slip-on."You should cover yourself, ehmm...it's cold. You could catch a cold." Matteo said turning back to the kitchen and busied himself back to making coffee.
"Tell me how could they've known?" Leo was looking at the laptop screen, while Amara was talking to Peter and arguing about work in the living room.Leo who had just join Matteo and Paolo was conversing back in the kitchen area. Paolo was hacking the feeds to the local traffic cameras and following a man dressed in all black driving a black SUV. That exact man was seen heading away from the safehouse.
"Come let's get you dry and I'll re-bandage your wound."Peter's gunshot wound to his abdomen was healing nicely, but Paolo didn't want to take a risk. He was careful with the waterproof bandage, but their fucking session previously was a bit rough and hard."I'm okay, I can do it myself."
"Hey...you have a nightmare, wake up..." Matteo was glad that it was just a nightmare. He thought someone managed to break in and was about to kill her. Calming himself down, he hides away his guns. He was still highly tensed when he reached her side.She sobbed in his arms while he was holding onto her half-naked body.
Amara was feeling her heart beating so fast that she thought it might burst out of her ribcage. She refused the poured malt and get the unopened minis from her stash at the bar, then give one to Peter.This too had been discussed, no consuming food and drinks while at the residence. But none of her family knows about her stash in the back of the bar cabinet.
Coming home to a woman sleeping on his couch has never been his dream. But seeing the skinny woman wrapped up in all the fluffy stuff was making him smile.Matteo had been busy at the club arranginghis people to take over his job while he was going to babysit the sole billionaire heiress.
"Amara, it's time. We need to get ready."She snuggled in closer to him, telling him that she didn't want to. But her will was nothing compared to the brute's as he easily picks her up and stands her to the drawers where her clothes were."Just get dressed, your stuff will be taken care of."
Amara was still upset when Matteo gets her a glass of mineral water, so she decided to go to the bar and have some minis. She smiled when she saw the three combos, she took a glass then poured the Campari, gin, and vermouth into one."Amara, this is not the time to get drunk." He was about to take her glass when she shushed him and take the first sip and closes her eyes in delight.
