Chapter 6

• •MATTEO ROCCO•
• My mind wanders back to the girl who was brought in last night as my wife. She was beautiful yet her attitude was one I didn’t like one bit. I remembered her smile as she and my sister spoke and how her countenance fell when she saw her family, her sister in particular, leave her behind yesterday.
• “SIR ROCCO…” a voice snapped me back to reality, looking up I found my right-hand man looking at me with a hint of concern on his face. I glare back at him, “What do you want Anthony?”.
• Anthony was Mother’s adopted brother, he was taken in at age 12 and had refused to take up the family’s last name which was not an issue as he was just being brought in for charity's sake. But all the same, I saw him as my uncle because mom said I should, he could be quite the pest when he wanted to be but he was a very cool person and quite jovial, too jovial for my liking.
• “I brought you the documents you needed for the goods coming into the warehouse, they need your signature before you can send them out to the company” he showed me a piece of paper and shoved a pen my way looking at me as if daring me to lash out at him for disturbing my thoughts. I sighed and grumbled at him, “So much for being my right-hand man, I should cut you off as soon as I can” I said and shoved back the paper to him as I stood up and took my jacket off the rack where it hung.
• I walk outside my office with Anthony right behind me asking me where I am headed, I pause walking and turn back to face him coming face to face with him “If you don’t stay out of my business I’ll chop off your left hand”
• He lets out a throaty laugh and raises his hand in false surrender, “Yes my lord, in a hurry to see our wife I see, do go ahead and have a nice time getting to know her. Be nice” he added as he chuckled and walked away to the direction of the warehouse.
• He’s the only one aside from my sisters and mom who could tease me and get away with it. I shake my head and go down to where my driver and car wait for me at the entrance of the building, the car is opened for my bodyguard and I get in.
• The drive to the house was quite quick as there was no traffic on the roads which is very weird as we always have lots of traffic on the road back home, I guess it’s because I decided to leave a bit earlier than usual.
• I get home and I don’t see anyone downstairs, the house is as quiet as ever and I wasn’t even surprised. I walk into the garden thinking I’ll find my mom and sisters there but found it empty as well. I asked the head butler where everyone was and I was informed that my mom left for a meeting concerning my wedding arrangements and my sisters went to the golf tournament that was being hosted in the city.
• “And what about Miss Aurora” I ask almost immediately as he turns to leave. “Miss Aurora has been in her room for most of the day Sir Rocco”. He nodded at his words and dismissed him, making my way upstairs to where her room was. It was a bit close to mine which was convenient for me anyway.
• I knock at her door twice without getting any response. My first instinct was that she might have run away in the absence of any of my family members. On second thought, she couldn’t because of the tight security we had but you could never be too sure. I let my intrusive thoughts win as I open her room to check.
• I found her fast asleep in a very skimpy-looking shorts and sleeveless tank top. She looked so calm and adorable in her sleep, unlike her feisty self when she was awake.
• I found myself watching her sleep quite to my amusement, I wasn’t the loving type or anything but something about this girl teases me and makes me want to see her. It’s been barely 24 hours but I like her presence. I might be a man whore in the past but that’s in the past. Getting married will come with a lot of responsibility and that includes staying faithful to my wife even if it is not a love marriage.
• Her eyes flutter for a bit and she wakes up, with her big doe eyes she stares at me as if staring at a ghost. It takes a minute to process her environment and my presence before she jumps to the other side of the bed with a shocked expression on her face.
• “And what the hell are you doing in my room, being a pervert?” disgust creeps into her face. That's the thing about this lady, why is she being overly dramatic and sensitive? I didn’t even touch her!!!
• “I came to check if you escaped the house Aurora, I kept knocking I didn’t get a response so I stepped in to check” I started defending myself, something I’ve never done before, I mean, I always have the final say.
• “And you should have gone as soon as you were done checking, why on earth were you staring at me in my sleep, don’t you know that’s creepy?” she yelled back.
• This girl and her attitude.!
• I give her my best smile and give her a mock bow followed by an “I’m sorry” before leaving her room and leaving her to the shock of finding me by her bedside.
• Walking to my room I smile proudly as I got to her a bit flustered and oh may I add, her boobs did a little jiggle as she jumped to the other side of the bed. It was so sexy but her talk distracted me from staring at them. Taking off my clothes I jump into the shower because I was having a boner thanks to Aurora and that cute boobs of hers which I was suddenly thinking off. Oh, the things I’d love to do to her body…..
• I can’t have her till our wedding night which will be in a month or so. That's so much time damn..,.will I be able to wait for that long ??
