They were talking for a while before the door opened revealing the last guest, Ryan.
"Sorry, I'm late."
"It's no problem dear, take a seat so we can start dinner," Nicole said.
Ryan's eyes scanned over the table his eyes met Natalia's she immediately looked away from him.
He walked over to her taking the seat to her left.
"Hello, Natalia." She looked at him, well glared at him.
"Hello, Ryan." She turned back around.
The maids came in, placing the food on the table.
Natalia lost her appetite for the food and she was surrounded by the two people she hated most in the world.
"You aren't going to eat?" Natalia looked over at Alessandro before saying.
"I lost my appetite." She took up her glass of wine taking a sip.
"Why am I not surprised that you would restore to alcohol."
"It calms my nerves."
"What or should I say who has gotten on your nerves? I have a few guesses of my own."
"Can't I drink without a reason?"
"No, you can't."
"You barely know me." He chuckles.
"I may not know you, but I'm very observant, I notice far more things about you than you realize."
"Please enlighten me about your recent discoveries." She said generally curious.
"You don't like to talk to people, but you hate to be alone, from my observations someone broke your trust and they also broke you." She looked up from her glass to look at him.
"By the way, you're looking at me I'm right."
"How can you be so sure."
"The reason you drink is to forget, but it never works does it?" She didn't answer him she only stared.
"You hate to be vulnerable, so you put up a tough act because you're scared to be hurt again. How are my discoveries?" She cleared her throat.
"I-" He cuts her off.
"You don't have to answer." She quietly was thanking him in her mind.
"So are you going to agree to the alliance?" Natalia asked, changing the subject.
"Time will tell." He said.
"You going to drink that?" Natalia asked as she saw his full glass of red wine.
"No, you can have it." She sent him a smile before taking up the wine, drinking it in a matter of seconds.
She placed back the cup on the table.
Out of nowhere, they heard someone coughing, immediately they looked behind us and saw a maid holding his throat as blood fell out of his mouth.
His nose was bleeding, his skin was pale and his eyes were wide with fear.
They watched as he fell on the ground. Natalia sighed before getting up, walking over to him.
She checked his pulse to make sure he was dead. "He's dead."
"He was poison from the looks of it." She added.
Alessandro bent down and picked up a note that was in the maid's pocket.
Dear Natalia,
That was just a warning, next time it may just be your body on the floor.
-R
"I got a note like that in my room, along with red wine." She had a hunch Ryan did this, but she didn't want to confront him yet.
"Are you alright? Do you feel off?" Alessandro quickly asked.
"I'm fine." She told him, giving him a soft smile.
"I think we all agree that we should cut the dinner short." Rounds of nods came as Nicole announced this.
"Ryan and Danielle you can stay for the night, I don't trust it's safe to go out," Nicole said.
"I'll get a room ready for you both."
"Мама, I'll be retiring to bed." She nodded.
"I'll follow you." Alessandro insisted.
They walked out of the dining room, in silence before Alessandro spoke up.
"Are you sure you're fine?" He asked once again.
"Why do you care?" She inquired, she stopped walking and turned to him.
"I'm just being polite."
"To a stranger."
"You're not a stranger if we already know each other's name." She rolled her eyes.
"Don't try to get smart with me." He smirked, they continued walking.
"You don't realize that the things you don't like about yourself are what makes you so interesting," Alessandro said as they stopped by her room door.
"Good night Natalia."
"Good night Alessandro."
She watched as he walked away, she walked into her room and leaned against the door, sighing she touched her heart as she felt it beating harder than before.

Alessia and Natalia stared at the test that was covered by a towel."Are you going to look?" Natalia asked."Me? This is your test.""Fine." She reached over for the towel, but she dropped her hand."I can't do it." Alessia rolled her eyes."For the love of God." She took up the test, looking at it."What does it say?""Pregnant.""No, maybe it's wrong. Let me take another." And she did, 5 to be exact."That's enough, your pregnant." Hearing Alessia say those words made her realise she was going to be a mother."I'm going to be a mother. I need a drink." She was ready to walk about the bathroom, but Alessia pulled her back."You're pregnant, no drinking." Natalia groaned."What am I going to tell Alessandro? This was definitely wasn't in the plan.""Plans change sometimes, tell him when he comes home, set up a little dinner date.""Alright, I will, thank you." She pulled Alessia into a
1 week laterNatalia and Alessia were in the living room, watching Lucifer, well re-watching it.Alessia was staying at home with Natalia since Alessandro was in Rome on a business trip for a few days."Chloe took way too long to tell Lucifer how she felt," Alessia confessed, Natalia nods, agreeing."Want more popcorn?" Alessia asked."Yeah with extra butter this time."Natalia paused the show, waiting for Alessia to come back. Suddenly she got up rushing to the bathroom, emptying her stomach for the 5th time today."Natalia! Are you ok?" Looking up from the toilet she nodded."Yeah, must have been something I ate." Alessia sat next to the door."You sure its something you ate?" Natalia looked at Alessia, she immediately realised what Alessia was implying."No, I'm not, I couldn't be." She mumbled getting up, walking to the sink."It's a possibility," Alessia let out as she watched Natalia rinsed out her mo
"These taste familiar. Where did you get these?" She asked taking another bite out of her hamburger."The diner we went, on our first day. You said you liked the food there so I thought it would be a good idea for you to relive that unless you want to eat something else-" She reached out brushing his hair out of his face."You're so adorable." He blushed slightly making her laugh."Have you tried the ice cream?" He asked trying to change the subject."No, I haven't." Natalia watched as he took out a container filled with the treat."What flavour is this?" He gave her a spoon before answering."Cookie and cream." Digging in, Natalia sighed loving the creamy taste. (What flavour ice cream do you like?)"You know I haven't gotten any notes from R in a while, have you?" He shook his head, but his face was telling a whole different story."No, I think it's good that she's leaving us alone." He confessed as Natalia laid on the ground
Natalia and Alessandro were currently driving to their date, by Andrew, their driver.Where were they going? Natalia had no idea.Along the way, Alessandro got multiple phone calls."Non era una domanda, era un ordine." He said coldly before he hung up. (It wasn't a question, it was an order.)He looked over to Natalia. "Sorry about that." She smiled."It's ok.""I'm turning off my phone." Shaking her head she said."You don't have to." He took her hand."No, I want to, I promised you a date I'm going to give you one. Which means I'm going to give you my undivided attention.""Fine, if you insist.""I love you."After a few minutes, the car came to a stop."Wait here," Alessandro said as he got out of the car.Soon he opened her door with roses in his hands.Helping her out of the car he gave her the roses."Where are we?" Looking around, seeing they were on the mountain.
It was the next day. Natalia woke up to an empty bed and stomach.She looked at the bedside table and saw a note.I'm in the kitchen making breakfast, there are some clothes in the bathroom so you can take a shower.-ASo Natalia got up, wincing when she felt pain at her core, immediately remembering their activities last night, making her smile.She walked into the bathroom and took a shower.Just like Alessandro said clothes we're in the bathroom, but it was not her clothes it was his, boxers and shirt.After she finished, Natalia roamed around the house looking for the kitchen.When she found it, she saw Alessandro putting pancakes in a plate."Good morning." She said, he turned around smiling."Good morning, gorgeous, how did you sleep?" He asked as he took orange juice from the fridge."Great, did you go to the store?" She asked as she saw the fridge was stocked up with food.He nodded, "I was g
He nibbled on her neck, making her gasp.Alessandro pulled away, looking into her brown eyes.He turned around going into one of the drawers, taking something out.When he turned around, she smiled shaking her head."Of course you have handcuffs." He smirked as he held the two handcuffs."Hold out your hands." And she did.He placed one of the cuffs on her hands, before directing her into a room."Is this some fifty shades shit?" She joked making him laugh as he positioned her on the bed, using the other handcuffs, intertwining them, before closing the handcuffs on the headboard.He moved down kissing her lips, she moved her hand to deepen the kiss, but she couldn't.She groaned. As he smiled. "If you hadn't move your hands earlier you wouldn't be in this position." Before she couldn't say anything, he slipped his finger into her.Making her moan, as she missed the feeling.That sound alone drove him crazy
