CHAPTER 48
#Bella’s P. O. V
One week. It’s been one week since Nicoli was shot and I have never felt so weak in my whole life.
Each day I visit him at the hospital its the same thing,, ever since he went into that stupid coma. Everybody tries to cheer me up but nothing they do works.
“Bella”Someone yells trying to wake me up but I swat my hand to get them to shut up.
“Nicoli is awake”The moment those words reach me I practically jump out of bed nearly falling.
“What?”I question Sarah who has the biggest smile ever.
“Yes he just woke up and he wants to see you”She winks and for some reason my face burns.
I jump out of bed and run to the bathroom. I take a quick shower and put on light blue jeans and one of Nicoli’s t-shirts, I tie my hair in a messy bun and walk to the living room where everyone is.. including my brother.
“Well you look happy”Andrew says when he sees me.
“Come on let’s go see him”I tell them but they don’t move.
“Why aren’t we going to the hospital”I question them but nobody answers me till someone does.
“Because I’m here”A voice I thought I’d never hear replies and I instantly turn around.
There standing by the door with his bad boy smile on is my very handsome husband.
Even though he just came back from the hospital he looks just as hot as ever.
He’s wearing his popular black Armani suit, his hair is messy but still hot , he’s a bit pale from being in hospital but he’s still sexy.
Before I can even think of my next more I run to him and he opens his arms hugging me . I feel so enveloped and safe in his arms.
“I missed you”I whisper doubting if he heard me but he did.
“I know Malishka”He whispers back and I laugh softly.
“You know I don’t know what that means right”I tell him and he smiles as well.
We pull apart and i look into his sexy blue eyes and I’m instantly trapped. Trapped in the beauty of his eyes how his long lashes just frames them perfectly well.
Our faces start getting closer I’m not sure whether I’m the one leaning in on him but I really don’t care. The beating in my heart is like a drum as his face starts getting closer so close I can feel his warm breath in my lips and its setting a fire all over me.
Our faces are just inches apart now if one of us moved , we’ll be kissing.
“You look so beautiful “He comments with a genuine smile.
“Shut up and kiss me” I said…. like i have no idea how those words escaped my lips
And just like that our lips meet and its an explosion of pleasure his lips are so soft and warm. He groans my waist and pulls me so close to him I can easily feel all his muscles under his shirt and I love it.
Our lips move eagerly with one another while we both try to be as close as humanly possible.
We stay like this till I’m left breathless and I pull back.
I turn around and there is no one here.
“They left”Nicoli says like he already knew what I wanted to ask.
I turn back to him and his still looking at me. He stalks towards me and hugs me from behind resting his head on my shoulder.
“So what has been happening around here my dear wife”Nicoli asks kissing my neck.
“Nothing much I’ve just been bored without you”I tell him softly.
“I had no one to argue with”I added and he burst out laughing. His husky voice just does wonders to me.
“Really?” He asks and I nod my head with a smile. I don’t know what is happening between us or why he’s being so affectionate but I really love it.
Ken enter the room and bows slightly. Nicoli looks up from my shoulder and nods at Ken still not letting go of me.
“Javier is here”Ken says looking up to see Nicoli’s reaction.
“Let him in” Nicoli orders
Ken goes out and I try to leave but Nicoli doesn’t let go of me instead his grip tightens.
“where do you think your going”He questions.
“Umm your gonna talk to Javier”I say in a duh tone.
“So”He draws out confusing me even more.
“Do you want me here?”I ask turning around so I can look at him more clearly.
“Yes”He simply answers and I’m left dumbfounded but before I can question him more Javier enters the room.
Nicoli sits down and I try to sit next to him but he grabs me and makes me sit on his lap making sure I don’t hurt him.
Javier sits down as well but its pretty obvious he doesn’t want me in the room.
“Boss we found the guy that shot you”
“And….”Nicoli says playing with my ring like he’s not paying attention.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“It’s Russo’s right hand”Javier says and Nicoli goes tense. His eyes snap to Javier and a dark smirk crosses his face.
“I think we should go give him a visit”Nicoli says and Javier nods his head.
Wait he’s still hurt He can’t go there in this condition
“Nicoli your still hurt”I interfare looking at him.
“You can leave”Nicoli orders Javier. Javier leaves the room but the look he sent me wasn’t friendly.
“I’m not letting you leave like this you’re still hurt”I cross my arms stubbornly.
“I’m fine its just a scratch”He says waving it off like its nothing.
“Well that ‘scratch’ put you in coma for a week so your not going anywhere”I say standing up and looking down at him.
Nicoli looks at me for a while then sighs “You know you are taking the role of the loving wife too seriously”He chuckles and tries to stand up I quickly go and help him making sure he leans some of his weight on me.
I help him walk upstairs to our room and gently place him on the bed. I take off his shoes, while he takes of his tie
“Why did you even put it on in the first place.”I question him standing by the bed side.
He shrugs and I roll my eyes”I’m gonna go get you some food”I tell him and lean down. I kiss him softly on the lips but freeze when I realise what I’m doing.
I practically run out of the room and slam the door behind me. ‘What is wrong with you Bella’ I scold myself repeatedly.
I take a deep breath and walk to the kitchen where luckily Sarah is.
“Hey could you help me make Nicoli something to eat “I ask.
“Sure”She says and starts pulling out the ingredients.
“Thanks”I nod my head and start helping her as well.
“I’m glad things are going well between you and my son”She smiles.
“I can tell he is crazy about you and you about him”I stop what I’m doing and turn around so I’m facing her.
“How do you know?” I ask
“What that you love him??”She smiles with a hint of mischieve in her eyes.
“Honey your eyes light up in excitement whenever we talk about him so it’s abvious”She says and goes back to what she’s doing.
Is she right ? I mean I know I’m attracted to Nicoli but the real question should be
Do I love him?
‘Maybe’
Am I falling for him?
‘Yes’
