Chapter 252: Someone Is Going To Get Hurt
Chapter 253: Someone Is Going To Get Hurt
Camilla
Things were quiet this morning when I woke up, my room was warm despite the iciness outside and I was honestly surprised when I saw my alarm clock read ten forty-five, Jacob having usually woken me by now to train.
Back at The Safe even though we were fighting half of the time, we would see who could beat the other up just so we could find the cruelest ways to wake the remainder. I thought he had just been giving me a break so far considering how tired I have been but I really was alone when I got up this morning. Still in the same clothes as last night beside my underwear and shorts that were now shucked away on the floor. It was then that the real part of last night hit me at full force, the name I had been calling out muffled against the same pillow I was resting against now while masturbating.
I remember everything, even over the fuzziness of my sleep and as Gregorio's gaze continues to pierce my mind, I also became increasingly aware of the injuries I had sustained last night. My adrenaline had kept me going enough to let me rest but it was all gone this morning. All I felt now was a sharp throbbing in my stomach, shades of black and red marring my skin in the faint outline of my shoe. That hurt so much worse than the thought Gregorio hsd managed to invade.
"Jacob?" I called out once just to make sure he wasn't somewhere in here and when I heard nothing, I ever so carefully slipped out of the warmth of my bed, grabbing a new pair of underwear and shorts from my drawers.
Just bending to put things on reminded me how tender my skin was right now and I knew it would probably take at least a week for it to fully go away. On the bright side, though, I was thousands of dollars richer now. Even with Gregorio's list of jobs, I wasn't sure if I wanted to give the kind of money up. He may have given me every opportunity in the city he could approve of but none of them gave me the thrill I had last night.
Walking across the cold hardwood floor, my bare feet lightly tapping against it with each step I take. I moved over to the cabinet where I have started a small collection of medicine. Praying for two painkillers would be enough, I filled myself a glass of water before drinking them both down, once again wondering why Jacob wasn't the reason I had woken up this morning. Maybe he was still sleeping?
After all, he had been up late too even though my night had gone much later than his his. I smiled at the thought of getting to be the one to restart our stupid tradition, the one that had once distracted me enough to make me want to go out of bed. Now it was my turn to get him back because even if I was a little hurt, it only meant l should be training more to be less sloppy. I needed to do something or else I would keep thinking about how badly I wanted Gregorio in my bed, fulfilling the fantasy I made myself cum to after he left. I made myself cum twice last night.
Even if my mind still hated him for the secrets and the lies and the control, my body was drawn to him like a moth was to a flame. I craved r to be ignited even when my heart warned me I would only get burned by going down that path. Still, I didn't know if I fully cared. That was exactly why I needed the training and was currently putting on much better clothes for fighting. Slipping out of the door only minutes later, I walked down the hall to where I knew Jacob's room was. I didn't have a key but that didn't really matter for either of us, both knowing damn well we could pick a lock within seconds.
It was more a common courtesy thing above all else but neither of us followed it enough to make me feel guilty for breaking in. I was getting antsy being here and I am sure he was just as bored now that he couldn't do much with the slash on his leg. With the gunshot wound still healing on my arms and the new bruise across my stomach, we should be on even ground.
At least that is what I told myself as I walked down the hall, my speaker in hand and ready to place beside Jacob's head. My plan was to blast his absolute least favorite songs in his ears until he was angry enough to rebuttal but the second the door opened, I knew that wouldn't be happening. Something was wrong and I could tell instantly that someone apart from us had been here. Nothing was broken or out of place, nothing showed signs of a struggle or that anyone had been here but when my feet carried me over to his bed, I found I was right.
His bed was messy, showing signs that someone had slept in it and the opened blinds made it look like Jacob had just gotten up in the morning like normal and had maybe just gone out for a run. That was what would be expected of a man who looked like himself but after living with the bastard for a year, I knew him better than that. The thing about Jacob was that he hated bright things and while his room was perfectly put together, he would never have all of these blinds open. He loved the dark and when I brushed my hand against the slight indent where he had slept, I found the mattress cold.
He had been gone for at least an hour, maybe more and there were only three men I could think of who were capable of stealing a man like Jacob away in the night without an obvious trace. It was the same three people who had once been on thin ice with me but now that ice was shattered and I was going to make them pay for it.

Once again, I had the feeling they knew I was coming because when I later parked on their driveway, not a single person stopped me as I got out, walked straight up to the double massive doors and walked right in. If they didn't want to respect my life and my privacy then why should I respect theirs?
Striding inside, I let the heavy door fall closed behind me and my coat was the first that came off, followed by shoes. Catching sight of my slightly pink cheeks in the mirror from how cold it has been getting these last few days. The snow storms have been relentless but it has also given me an excuse to stay in and relax.
The quietness of the house and lack of any light soon became a good indication, however that the weather hadn't drawn everyone indoors like it has me. Despite the unlocked door, Adriano, Domenico and Gregorio weren't here but I had assumed that even with all of their work, they would be doing it from home. The silence of the house only made me realize how incredibly wrong I was, making me wonder if they were with Jacob right now and what they could possibly want with him.
Last night, I had honestly expected somebody to be throwing punches at least once when Gregorio ran into him in the hallway, the only covering me having been my towel. He had been jealous but was still mostly tame around me afterwards. With the both of us separated this morning though, I couldn't help but wonder if the emotion Gregorio seemed so capable of suppressing last night came out and made him do something so incredibly stupid.
Jacob and I weren't necessarily friends but we also weren't strangers and to have him taken like it was no big deal was a big deal. I am sure the seemingly double security at the front gate has already notified at least one of the owners of this house of my arrival but I was going to go make sure anyways because I didn't care how busy work was today.
Someone was going to get hurt and I kept that thought in my mind the entire way back to the entrance, my hand slipping around the handle just as the door swung open abruptly. My body crashed into a very large and very warm body.
"Princess?" Adriano's smooth voice curled deep inside me as my hands were pressed against his naked chest, sweaty and looking like he had just gone for a run in the dead of winter.
"I was wondering when we would see you again." He added
When my head peeked over his shoulder, I found Gregorio and Domenico in the exact same state, seeming as hot as ever while I stood here cold from the breeze the open door was letting in.
The chill of the air managed to snap me out sharply as I stepped away from them, and they didn't waste a second before coming inside and closing the door behind them.
