Alessia's eyes fluttered open the moment the front door was pushed open. Having lived with her uncle for so many years, she already knew it was him coming into the house.
She yawned, also stretching out some limbs as she got down from the old-looking bed. She walked out of the room and just as she expected, her uncle was already seated on the couch.
"Welcome back," she muttered, rubbing her eyes sleepily. Simone Rizzo stared at his little niece who had grown into a woman overnight. Suddenly, he felt his lower region twitch as he watched her perfect long fair legs that stretched on for miles. Subconsciously, he licked his lower lips that suddenly ran dry on seeing her sexiness in her red shorts and black top.
"What have you been doing, kiddo?" He finally voiced out, masking the lust in his eyes with a blinding smile. Alessia grinned and shook her head. "Sleeping as usual, I have to get back to work soon." She replied with a yawn. Simone Rizzo nodded in understanding and smiled again.
"You look good tonight." He said, his thick Italian accent becoming stronger when he said, 'Tonight' Alessia's smile faltered as she looked into her uncle's eyes. She glanced down at her outfit and back at him. "Zio, there's nothing special in the outfit. I'm dressed homely. Well, let's forget about that, what would you like to have?" She waved her hands, dismissing his suddenly weird attitude.
"Oh, I wish to have you." He whispered. Alessia who didn't hear what he said asked again, "Zio?" "Oh, I'll have whatever you made." He replied with a sigh this time other than a smile. "Alright, I made lasagna and gelato. I'll get you some." She offered before turning to walk out of the living room and into the kitchen. While she busily prepared the meal, Simone stood to his feet and walked into the kitchen to find her.
He could barely contend with his inner desires as he watched her perfect legs in the shorts. He reached into his pants to stroke his already hard member as he envisioned her lying on his bed with her legs parted before him. 'Fuck!' He murmured and kept stroking harder. Alessia felt a presence behind her, but she chose to act ignorant as she dished out his meal. She felt movements behind her again and she couldn't hold it this time as she turned to face whoever it was. "Zio?!" Alessia let out a scream on seeing her uncle masturbating while staring at her. His cock was already out in the open as he watched her with his lustful gaze.
"Lessy, I know this is wrong, but no one cares about these types of things here in Reggio Calabria. Just let me have a taste of you, I promise not to tell." He pleaded as he took three steps closer to her. Alessia shook her head continuously.
"Zio this is wrong! I can't be doing this with you, stay away!" She stepped back, trying to get away from him. But Simone had already made up his mind to taste the forbidden fruit today, nothing could stop him. He lunged himself at her and immediately held both of her hands the moment she tried to protest.
"You're mine and mine alone to enjoy!" He whispered into her ears and bent down before she could resist again. He lifted her off the ground and threw her over his shoulders. "Zio! You can't do this to me! I'm your niece! Zio!" Alessia kept yelling as tears filled her already moist eyes.
She wished the ground could open up and swallow them both instead. Never had she envisioned herself losing her first time to her uncle, it was better to die. Simone paid no attention to her pleas as he pushed his room door open with a bang, directly knocking it off its position. He would think of the fixing later, for now, he had his niece to enjoy. He threw her onto his bed and immediately began to pull his belt off.
Alessia cursed her fate and stubbornness. If only she had listened to Grace, her best friend, she would never have been in this situation. A few days back, Grace had forced her to come along as she was going to get some self-defense training. Alessia had informed her that she didn't need one as she didn't have a dangerous job that required that.
Grace worked at the club famously known as the Devil's Den, the Number one biggest club in the entire City. "Zio, why are you doing this?" At this point, Alessia's tears fell continuously as she questioned the only man she looked up to from a young age. Simone acted obviously to her words and just chuckled.
"Your mother abandoned you here for me to take care of, the least you could do for me is allow me to have a taste of you as repayment." He muttered as he threw his belt to the side. Alessia shook her head in denial, "Zio I can repay you by working hard and making enough money, but please let me go."
"You don't need to work hard, my love. If I can have just one taste of this body, I don't need any more repayments and I promise to let you go." He replied instead and climbed into the bed, pulling both of her retracted legs forward and parting them the moment she was close enough.
Alessia screamed, but not without checking her sides to see if there was anything she could use to save herself from this doom about to befall her. Just when Simone buried his head in her neck, she caught sight of his baseball bat at the far end of the bedroom. Knowing she couldn't reach it, she shut her eyes and bared her teeth to sink them into Simone's shoulders.
The moment her teeth met his shoulder, she bit hard on it, earning a bone-chilling scream from Simone who immediately let her go. With this opportunity given, she climbed out of the bed and rushed over to the bat, picking it up, she struck Simone so hard on his head that he saw stars and directly fell to the cold hard floor, going limp at once.
"Serves you right for laying your filthy hands on me!" She spat and threw the bat at him as well. With no other option left, she decided to leave. Her staying in this house was already counted off on the list and even God in heaven wouldn't hesitate to punish her like a little bitch if she dared to stay back. With her mind made up, she ran out of the house, leaving her belongings behind as well.
Simone could do whatever he wanted with them. This time, she would stay far away from him and try to leave happily.
Little did she know that this day would mark the start of her endless fight for survival.
