Lorenzo knelt down as the whip landed on his back one after another. He was used to this after all he had grown up in the Mafia.
He was facing down when he heard footsteps hurrying towards him, he looked up to see a face he has come to like even though he knew he shouldn't.

Her Dad probably didn't even know that whoever had broken in last night was trying to harm but me not his daughter. Of course If he knew he'd probably start suspecting him.
Thinking about what happened last night, it was highly possible that there was a mole amongst his men. Cause only his men knew where he was.

Luckily he wasn't ratted out to Don Moretti, if not his revenge..........

But then will he be able to go on with this revenge with the budding feelings in his chest? He watched her as she anxiously approached him and shouted at the guards to stop.

"Signorina, Senor Moretti orders us to punish him" One of the guys opposed respectfully.

"And I am ordering you to let him go, I am still the mistress of this house... I hope my words are clear..." Her eyes narrowed as a wave of commanding aura arose from her. And damn did she look Beautiful and sexy.. He thought.

The guards backed away and her focused back at him as she rushed to help him stand up.

"Are you okay?" Her voice laced with worry.

"Yeah am fine" Lorenzo gave her a weak smile, but just as he said this he let out a low growl as he seemed to have stretched his wounds.

Aurora's eyes were tinted with worry as she quickly helped him to her room to treat him wounds.

"Lie down and rest" she ordered him as she finished administering the last bandage.
He pursed his lips as he looked at her beautiful eyes.

"A little beating won't throw me off my feet" He said as he tried to stand up from the bed.
There was his arrogance again, Aurora rolled her eyes as she looked at him. Did he think he was Jesus?

"You had a gun shut wound last which is not even healed and today whips and you're pretending to be alright? Go lie down" she looked fierce with her hands on her hips as she glared at him almost putting holes in his body.

"Fine Signorina" He put his hands up as a sign of giving up and went to lie down.

Waking up three hours later to the smell of plain porridge, Lorenzo felt his stomach rumble... Oh it seemed he had nothing to eat since last night.

He looked at the girl fixing out the dishes on the table in her room. The afternoon sun which was not so hot today had settled on her face forming a warm glow enhancing her facial features more. The collar of her shirt because she was bending down had slid open and her round blossoms were out in view.
He felt something stir in him and immediately shifted his gaze away.

"Oh you're awake... Come eat something" Her melodious voice rang out waking him up from his thoughts.

He slowly hot up and walked towards her to sit on the chair opposite her.

"Due to your wounds you can't eat heavy food so I only made you some porridge with chicken soup, try it to see if it feds your taste" she dishes out the porridge into a bowl and passed it to him as she spoke.

"You cook" Lorenzo asked, surprise as he stared at the bowl suspiciously.

"What? You think a Rich pampered daughter like me can't cook? Am warning you you better eat it all up and lick the bowl. I don't usually cook for people, it's your honor to eat my food in this life" Her haughty figure sat well postured on the chair as her hears beamed with anger and arrogance.

"What are angry for? I just asked a question" he said helplessly as he scooped some porridge into his mouth... She acted like a child sometimes.
He was surprised by the taste, it was actually really good.

"Is it nice?" He looked up to see her looking at him nervously. What a cute wild cat.

"Mhm" he hummed as he kept eating.

She called a maid to come clear the dishes after he was done eating.

Silence fell in the room as the two people didn't have anything to say. Then...
"Go take a shower and come back I have something to discuss with you, you stink" She looked at him with disdain as she finished the last word.

Lorenzo was speechless but he still went on to his on room to take a shower.

Meanwhile Aurora's mind was in a turmoil. She picked up her phone and made a call to her best friend Martina.

"Hello Babe" he cheerful voice came from the other side of the phone.
"How are you" Aurora asked.

"Am good. Am on my way to the club, how's your bot bodyguard" Aurora could hear the grin playing on her lips.

"It's still just 2pm, don't you have a job? And am fine thanks for asking, Lorenzo's injured but fine" Aurora rolled er eyes as she said this.

Martina giggled as she heard her words but then frowned a bit at the end.
"What happened? She asked

"Nothing serious, just someone attacked us last night but am not calling for this though. Something happened between Lorenzo and I yester..." But before she could finish her sentence she heard a scream on the other end of the phone which almost gave her a heart attack.

"You guys did it? Did he finally pop your cherry?" Her voice was laced with excitement as uncountable and inexplicable images formed in her head.

"What? No we didn't go all the way" Aurora blushed furiously.

"Ah why? How could such a hot body like his be in your bed and you didn't t even go all the way" Martina was so disappointed she wanted to knock Aurora's head to see what on earth was going on in it.

"I told you someone broke in last night and we were interrupted" Aurora rolled her eyes. She's probably gonna have her eyes fall out of it's sockets if she kept on being friends with Martina.

"Oh, then did he say anything about it today?"

"Not really, we haven't had time to mention it. But am nervous, what did he think about it? Do tou think we are a couple now?" She was really nervous. She wanted to know what Lorenzo thought of their little thing yesterday did he enjoy it as she did? Or did he see her as cheap as they weren't even in a relationship?

"Relax girl, am probably sure that hot as duck nigga wants you. Common I saw the way he looked at you at that party. He definitely wants to have you delivered in his bed with a cherry on you. And am pretty sure he's interested in you more than just for sex. I've been with boys before and I know a smitten ass boy when I see one" Martina assures her.

" Really?" Aurora blushed at the thought of him liking her.

"Yup don't you trust me? Bring it up to him today. I hope you're not waiting for him to make the first move..... Heed to me and chase tour man before some other girls get him. He maybe a bodyguard but you know we'll that he's a piece of fine meat any girl would want. If possible seduce him" A hint of mischief could be heard in her voice as she completed her sentence.

"Mhm thanks best" they concluded their call and hung up.

At this moment Aurora who has always been reserved when it came to matters between men and women didn't know that something had been planted in her mind. And she would do everything to get this cold looking man.
