Andrea's POV
I smiled at my image in the mirror as I brushed my teeth, it's something I do often, I tend to smile to my image in mirrors. I winked at myself and gave out a light giggle. when I was done brushing my teeth, I quickly took my bath, then I wrapped myself with my towel and dried my hair with a hair drier, then I went to my bedroom. I dried myself, then applied my body lotion, I let my hair fall, I prefer it that way. My hair is sleek black and long, I often get complements on it. I'm not really a make up person, so I just smiled at myself in the mirror and headed to my walk in closest to find something to wear. Then I settled for a green jumpsuit, I picked a white heels and a white bag to match. I placed the cloth and bag on my bed, then placed the heels beside my bed. Then I got dressed, I went to my Jewelry closet and picked a pair of white earrings and necklace, It was a gift given to me by my dad, I wore them and wore my gold wristwatch, the heels and picked the bag.
I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction, pretty miss Andrea... I giggled and went out of my room.
' Good morning everyone!' I exclaimed as I walked down the stairs.
' Oh my! You look so beautiful Andrea ' My mom exclaimed when she took her gaze to me.
' Thanks mom, I got that from you ' I said with a chuckle as I hugged her.
' Good morning, princess ' My dad greeted with a grin.
' Dad, how was your night?' I asked as I went to hug him too.
' It was fine and yours?' I replied
' Mine was splendid '
' Hey you two, the food is gonna get cold ' My mum said, making my dad and I chuckle.
' Yeah, yeah just say you're getting jealous ' My dad teased my mom.
' Of course, not ' She denied.
' Mom don't mind dad okay, he's only teasing you ' I said with a grin as we sat down to eat.
' Of course, she knows that... right babe?' My dad winked at my mum.
I swear I saw my mum's face turn red.
' Yeah I know ' She said shyly and I giggled.
God thank you for bringing me into this family... I thought as I looked at my parents. They always act like teenagers in love even at their age.
' Bye mom, bye dad ' I said as I kissed my parents respectively after we were done eating.
' Take care of yourself ' My mum said.
' I will mum '
' Come home soon okay ' My dad said.
' Okay dad, bye ' Then i headed out.
' Bye ' They said in unison.
I got into my car and brought it to life, immediately the security opened the main gate, then I drove out.
Soon, I got to my fashion home, Andrea's Touch. Each staff that saw me, greeted me with a slight bow which I responded to.
' Good morning, ma'am Andrea ' My secretary greeted as I got to her table.
' Good morning, Cynthia ' I replied with a warm smile.
' How was your night?' I asked.
' It was fine ma'am '
' That's nice, please get me the design I made for the president's daughter ' I requested as I walked to my office.
' Yes ma'am ' She said.
I sat on my chair and took a deep breath.
Here's a new day... I thought with a smile.
I heard a knock on the door.
' Come in ' I said as I rested my gaze on the door.
The door opened and Cynthia walked in with a file in her hand.
' Here it is, ma'am ' She said as she handed the file to me.
' Thank you ' I collected it from her.
' Do you need anything else?' She asked.
' No, that's all ' I replied as I glanced through the file.
' Okay ma'am, I will head outside now '
' Okay, you can go '
' Thanks ma'am ' And with that she went out.
I checked through the design I made, this was probably the tenth time I was checking it. I always loved my designs to be perfect, so my customers won't have any cause to not patronize me again.
Next month is the president's daughter's wedding, so I need to make her dress way perfect without any single mistake.
After checking that the drawing was hundred percent perfect, I went out of my office, heading to the sewing room. I began cutting the fabrics with the aid of some of my staffs.
Few hours later...
' Good bye ma'am ' Some of my staffs waved as I walked out.
' Good bye, see you guys tomorrow ' I waved at them.
I got inside my car and drove out. What a day... I thought.
As I drove, I began humming to a rap by Nicki Minaj, which was been played on my car audio play. Then suddenly, i noticed a SUV car had been trailing me for a while, I looked through my side view mirror with furrowed brows.
' Who the fuck is this?' I muttered to myself.
I sped up and then, the car also followed suit. Okay... I think I'm been trailed.
I tried to dodge it, but it was quick to catch up with me.
I began to panick, I increased my speed but the fool still caught up with me.
Who the fuck is this?! I cursed this time.
Whoever was driving the car, swiveled it and made it stop right in front of my car and immediately I stepped on the break, If not for my seat belt, I sure would have hit my head on the steering wheel.
Five guys in black came out of the car and walked to mine.
What the fuck! Is this an armed robbery attack?
My heart was literary in my mouth that moment.
One of them knocked on the window, insisting I open up but I refused. He brought out a gun and immediately I complied. Just as I opened the door, he placed a white handkerchief on my face, the next thing... I blacked out.

Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict.

He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned.
