Chapter

-You have to work harder- her personal trainer said shaking his blonde head.

-What do you think I’m doing? Comb dolls?- she murmured tight-lipped, after three hours of training she was exhausted and sweaty.

-Ti ho sentita

I heard you

- Andrea laughed.

-è quello che volevo

that’s what I wanted

- she gave him the middle finger and a smile and jumped off the ring and wiped away the sweat.

-Dov’è finita la signorina per bene con cui sono cresciuto?-

where is the good girl I grow up with?

he joked she shook her shoulder.

-I’m done for today, I have private law class in one hour-

-Cristo, I don’t get why you are studying law when your family is…so rich that you could be a heiress and plus you are already working in the business- Andrea shook his head.

He and Anna were friends since she was born, he was four years older than her and he had always felt the urge to protect her. They attended the same school, and since from kindergarten to high school were in the same building they were always together. She was the nerd girl who was always studying or playing volleyball while he was the captain of the rugby team and the womanizer who changed girl every week .

He has blonde hair and two ocean blue eyes, he was tall like a column and well trained, in addition to being a rugby player and he was a MMA teacher, Anna used to tell him that he looks like a nordic god and nicknamed him Thor. Anna has jet black waist long hair and two doe pitch black eyes, she was taller of the average girls and well trained thanks to volleyball and the MMA trainings, Andrea used to call her Biancaneve

Snow-white

because of her pale skin, dark hair and plump red lips.

-Because I want to be the most badass lawyer and I want to be paid to argue with people- she smirk heading to the girl locker room.

She came out from the locker room in a white jeans, a white and black jacket labeled Chanel, a black and white Chanel espadrilles and a camel crocodile Affef bag of Fontana Milano 1915. She was always perfectly dressed but she didn’t do it to impress but because when she was waring well she felt stronger and better. And she believe that it was important the way you dress because it indicates who you are, it is the expression of people personality and life. Indeed she was always in a pair of Nike leggings and a hoodie she stole from Andrea or elegant and formal suits when she had to work or to go to University. Andrea was waiting for her, he changed as well and he was wearing a simple white t-shirt under a black leather jacket, he was wearing blue Levi’s jeans and black suede derby of Louboutin. She smiled and nodded to indicate the door, they never needed to talk to understand each other a facial expression or a pose of the body were enough to communicate. Anna’s car was parked a little far from the gym, she had been taught to stay in the shadows and a shining black Ferrari 812 superfast was too flashy. All Anna’s cars were flashy, cars were the passion of Anna and her father and they spent lots of money on them.

-Hop in lazy butt- he told her, he was the only one allowed to drive one of her cars, even if she preferred to drive she let him do it knowing that he liked being a man in that situations, he was an old style man when it was about manners and chivalry.

-Can you come to collect me when I will finish?- she asked hopefully.

-Anna, I always come to take you after classes. Why are you asking?- he laughed she rolled her eyes, she used to ask always the same question every day -the guys asked if we want to go to Dr.Jekyll for a drink- Andrea said when she opened the door once in front the University.

-Ovvio! Ho davvero bisogno di uno dei suoi old fashion-

sure! I really need one of his old fashion

her eyes showed how she loved that idea.

-Vai a studiare, alcolizzata-

go to study, alcoholic

he scoffed her.

He waited until she disappeared inside the building hoping she would be safe there, few people knew who was her father. He drove to his daily duties: Anna’s father planned a “meeting” with one of their competitor and Andrea had to be there because he was the best at conducting those meetings. He reached the place where Coraggio’s family leaded some of their businesses, out the building waiting for him he found Edoardo e Jacopo, those two and Anna were his childhood friends. He walked in followed by them. He could hear someone screaming in pain so he headed that way sure to find he place of his meeting. In the room there were two men looking to an other one who was sat in a chair in the middle, hands and feet tied to the chair. His face was swollen and he had some cuts on arms and legs. For normal people that wouldn’t be a nice scenario, but they were used and they used to enjoy torturing. That was the man who Andrea was supposed to meet with, he was upset that those men already started bit the hell out of him.

-Didn’t I tell you no to bit him until I was here?- he questioned harshly glaring to the two in black, they lowered their head.

-So, Do you mind to tell me who sent you here with a kill mission?- Andrea asked to the bitten one. He spitted to his shoes, wrong move thought Andrea taking a hammer from the table and used it to hit the man right knee -Let’s try again: who sent you here?-

-I won’t tell you- he screamed trying to bear the pain.

-I don’t have all the day, so I suggest you to start speaking willingly- he wasn’t a calm and patient man, he was a man of actions and that man behavior was getting on his nerves.

-You can kill me, I won’t talk- the man screamed again. Andrea hit the other knee violently. Crack. And goodbye bones.

-Still not talking?- the man shook his head and smirked.

He was a loyal one and for this Andrea respected him and decided to end his pain. He pulled out his gun and with one shot took his life.

-Clean this mess- he ordered, took a towel to clean his hands and left.

He hurried home to take a shower and call his boss to inform him they couldn’t obtain the name of the instigator. Andrea knew he wouldn’t be happy to hear that.

After he was showered and dressed, ready to go back to the University, he called his boss to tell him how the meeting ended. Cesare was furious, Andrea was sure that if would be possible smoke would have come out from his ears. He informed his boss that he was going to take his daughter and to bring her to her loft and that he would have sleep there to be sure there wouldn’t be an other attack. He didn’t tell him about the night program, as an overprotective father he doesn’t like to know his baby girl was going around with his men.

Once in front of the building he spotted Anna talking with a guy he never see before. He parked the car and hopped off. When she saw her friend walking their way her white face went even more white, he seemed pissed. He was possessive and overprotective when it came to her. She was only speaking with a university mate she used to study with when she had free hours, the guy used to flirt with her and she never made him stop because the thing never crossed the friendship line. But that day he asked her for a date and they were talking about which day and where when Andrea showed up. Bad timing.

Indeed being an overprotective friend he was, Andrea placed an arm on her shoulders and introduced himself.

-Hi, I’m Andrea and who are you?- he said with a look that could kill.

-Oh stop it!- Anna hissed in his ears annoyed knowing what her friend was doing.

-I’m Luigi, one of Anna’s studying mate- he said winking at the girl who laughed.

-It wasn’t a pleasure, we have to go home- said Andrea pushing Anna to the car.

-was it necessary?- she asked punching his arms when both of them were inside the car.

-Yeah it was definitely necessary, lover girl. I though that you were too nerd to hang out so I haven’t to be worry about men, but now I have to take care about that too- he murmured shaking lightly his blonde head.

She placed one hand over his one catching his attention, that was the fastest way to calm him down and as usual it worked. He has always been a gentle man with her, but she knows how he can be cruel and merciless with others.

The way back home was quiet and quick, three years before she could buy a loft in one of the stoical buildings in Milan near her University, even if from the outside looked old her apartment was modern, Andrea and Anna spent weeks to design the inside and to look for perfect furnitures. Once in the flat she went to the bathroom in her room and showered. There was a big glass shower, an oval sink in grey marble with white veins and a bench in black wood, where her maid Luciana used to left a clean bathrobe with a chocolate bonbon on top, knowing how much she loves chocolate. Anna asked Alexa for a song and she turned on the water, she loves feeling the water running on her skin. When she renovated she made make a door which allowed her to have access from the bathroom to the walking-in closet without to pass from the bedroom so she doesn’t have to take the clothes with her in the bathroom.

In the meanwhile Andrea was in the kitchen cooking their dinner, he uses to spend a lot of time in Anna’s house since she moved to live alone, first because they were inseparable and second he wants to be sure she was safe. She gave him space in her walk-in closet too, so he would have always a change. Often they were mistaken for a couple for the way they behave with each other.

She chose to wear a short turquoise jumpsuit that let all her back naked, a white pari of Comme de Garçon AllStars, a white tweed Chanel 2.55 in her hand, she let her hair to dry with the air and put on mascara and a dark red lipstick. She hates to wear make up, plus she doesn’t need. When Andrea saw her he whistled in appreciation.

-I don’t know if I should let you go around like that, you are too sexy for your own good- he said making her laugh. He knew that she hates compliments and she doesn’t know what to say when someone compliments her.

-Zitto, non è vero-

Shut up, it’s not true

she said pouring a finger of whiskey in two glasses. She handed one to her friend and sat on the kitchen marble island, she uses to say that marble was more comfortable than a chair.

-Are you going to change o are you coming like that?- she asked looking skeptical at the man.

-I’m perfect like that- he said broadening his arms. He is an handsome man and he knows it, he uses his charm and beauty to have a different girl in his bed every night but only for a couple of hours because after he sends them away and he goes to Anna’s home. She wasn’t one of his girl, she was different.

-Maybe I’m just pretty maybe I’m just fine ‘cause I got a belly and I got a bum- she sang dancing on the island. She was the nerd of her class but she knows how to party and have fun, but she shows herself free and unrestrained only to Andrea.

It was a show to see her dancing barefoot with the glass in one hand and her eyes closed, he was looking amused to the amazing woman in front of him. Young, wild and free were three adjectives that were strangers to her. She had to grow faster after her mother died and since she was an only daughter and the heir of an empire. Her father wanted she start to train when she was five and she was trained to be the stronger and merciless killer. Cesare sent her away form home to protect her, only few trusted persons know her name and even less know her physical appearance. She likes her life like that. She always pretends to be strong and untouchable, she closed her heart to love when she was twelve and the guy who asked her for a date was killed in front of her by a rival competitor. When her father and Andrea knew about that they sent a killing party and murdered all of them so no one could find out who she was. But Cesare gave her a deadline, after her graduation she would have take his place and become the boss.

When the song ended she opened her big eyes and she was smiling widely, she hopped down and put on the Comme de Garçon AllStars. Andrea handed her a plate and they sat down. He cooked steak and vegetables, she tried a pice of beef she moaned when she realized the sound she just made she covered her mouth with her hand while her friend was laughing hard.

-Do you like it?- he teased her making Anna to roll her eyes.
