Chapter 31


    Belle''s POV


    I''m standing outside St. Mary''s waiting for Mr. Dardan Geci to arrive. A few seconds past, a ck car


    pulled over right in front of me. Mr. Geci went out and opened the door.


    "Good afternoon Miss Belle."


    "Good afternoon Mr. Geci."


    "Please just call me Dardan." He said while offering a smile. I let out a smile in response. Dardan is


    wearing a ck suit and a light blue colored shirt inside and has a properly trimmed downed charcoal


    ck hair.


    "Okay Dardan."


    Several minutester we arrived at a gated mansion. Along the driveway are perfectly trimmed nts.


    There are different small statues in every few meters of the driveway. The car pulled over next to a


    fountain right in front of the main entrance of the mansion.


    As we walk inside, I see a long and polished wooden staircase going to the second floor. Right in the


    middle is a beautiful crystal chandelier sparkling in all its beauty. The adornments around the mansion


    are mostly old wood and antiques.


    "This way Ms. Belle." Dardan pointed me to a room which looks like the study. I sat in one of the chairs


    right next to the table.


    "The Boss will be here with you shortly. Please, do you need anything?"

    "None at the moment Dardan, thank you very much."


    Dardan made a small nod and exited the room.


    A few secondster, while I''m humming a song out of boredom, I see a little girl peeking from the other


    door to the left of the study. She has a curly auburn hair reaching her back. She has the most beautiful


    set of dark brown eyes and long curlyshes. And she is wearing a light pink colored dress.


    She must be Aria.


    "Hi!" I greeted her with a smile but she doesn''t respond. She just looks at me, still hiding half of her


    body.


    I see that she is now looking at the fairy doll peeking from my bag. I took it and made the hand of the


    doll wave at her.


    "Hi, this is Sophia. Do you want to meet her?"


    To my surprise, she nodded at me. My heart is suddenly filled with warmth. She made a few steps and


    halted right in front of me. She touched the fairy doll''s hair and brushed it with her fingers.


    "Do you like Sophia?" She again nodded.


    "Here, you can hold her if you want."


    She looked at me like waiting for my permission. She slowly took the doll from my hand while looking at


    me intently with er angel eyes.


    "My name is Belle."


    My heart jumped from my chest when all of a sudden she gave me a tight hug. Oh my god. This little


    girl is the sweetest.


    "Aria." Said a voice from the back.


    When I turned around I see Dardan and another man who I think is his Boss. Aria ran to him and


    instantly showed him the fairy doll. He carried Aria in his arms while a smile is painted on his face.


    "Hello, you must be Belle?"


    "Yes."


    He ces Aria back to the floor and we shook hands.


    "Forgive my manners, we haven''t been introduce yet. My name is Artan Bogdani."


    "Nice to meet you Mr. Bogdani."


    "No please, just Artan."


    I just gave him a smile in response. Artan is as tall as Niki but he has a slightly bigger built. His


    blonde hair is perfectly gelled towards the back of his head. He is sporting a mustache and a beard. I


    also notice the ring he is wearing in his right hand middle finger. It looks the same as Dardan''s but


    Artan''s ring is way bigger and it has a red stone right in the middle.


    I noticed that Artan is looking at me like he''s inspecting me from head to foot. I suddenly felt


    ufortable. Geeez, I think I''m already turning crimson.


    "Uh Boss." Dardan butts in.


    Thank god for Dardan. Artan excused himself and left. Aria and I spent the rest of the day together.


    Aria surprisingly responds well to our activities. Aside from being adorable, the girl is very sweet and


    thoughtful.


    I decided to stay until Artanes home. I just could not find it in my heart to leave this little angel until


    her father gets home. Aria and I are in her room. She handed me a story book to read for her and in


    just a few moments, Aria fell asleep.


    I noticed that Artan is standing at the door while staring at our direction. I slowly removed myself from


    Aria''s bed and stepped towards the door.


    "Thank you." Artan said.


    I quickly hushed him. "Shush....Artan."


    He just smiles in response. I grab his arm and slowly closed the door on our way out. To my horror,


    Artan held both my arms and pinned me with his body to the wall. A gasp escaped my mouth when he


    cupped my face tightly and nted a kiss on my lips. Oh my god. What is happening?


    "Please stay. I want to fuck you."


    Did he just....?


    I can smell and taste liquor and cigar in Artan''s mouth. The mixture of scotch, cigar, and a hint of his


    cologne surprisingly smells good. I tried to remove myself from him but his body is pressing me hard to


    the wall effectively immobilizing me. I can feel his cock harden in his pants as he pushed his torso


    towards me. His other hand is running inside my dress down my thigh.


    At this point, his kiss became more intense as he makes small soft bites on my lips. I tried to push him


    with all my strength but he is too strong. He then lets go of my face and grabs me towards him with his


    arms.


    I pped Artan on his face as strong as I can but the moment I did that, he lets out a wicked smirk and


    said, "Nobody says no to me baby."


    "I am not your baby! Let go of me Artan!!!"


    Suddenly we both notice that the door at Aria''s room opened. The little angel is looking at the both of


    us. I feel like I''m running out of breath. Artan slowly lets go of me and unpinned me from the wall. I try


    topose myself together, straightened my dress while shooting a stern look at Artan.


    I quickly went to Aria and knelt on the floor. She is now scratching her eyes and yawns at the same


    time.


    "Hey little Angel,e let''s go back to bed." She then wraps her right arm around my neck while the


    other arm is held up signalling her father to alsoe to embrace.


    Artan knelt, carried Aria in his arms and ced her back to bed. The little angel held out her hand


    gesturing to lie in bed with her.


    I''m on Aria''s right side while Artan is to her left. I hummed a song for her and in just a few seconds she


    quickly drifted off to sleep. I just ignored Artan who is now looking at me intently. I can''t believe what


    just happened. Hopefully Aria forgets about what she saw.


    When Aria went back to sleep, I slowly remove myself from Aria and stepped down the bed. I walked


    as fast as I can towards the door. I felt Artan move so I quickly paced away from him and went down


    the grand staircase. When I got out, Dardan is already waiting for me next to the car.


    After what Artan did, I don''t know if I still want to go back here.


    ??????


    Amy and Dn are in the living room and it looks like they are having an argument.


    "Hey, what''s happening?"


    They did not answer me.


    "Oh nothing B, just asking my oh so faithful brother why he was kissing that skunk."


    "A please, let it go."


    "See Dn, she''s too good for you, perhaps this is a good thing. You don''t deserve her at all."


    "A, I want to talk to Dn." My bestfriend begrudgingly walked away and went to our room.


    "Dy, I want us to go back from being friends, just like before. I want to go back to those times that we


    were just happy andfortable with each other. It was a mistake in my part for even allowing this to


    happen to us. And I''m sorry for not beingpletely honest to you."


    Dn did not answer me. Instead he lets out a frustrated sigh while cing his hand on his waist. I


    stepped closer to him and hugged him tight.


    "Dy, I promised you that I will be here for you no matter what. This is me, fulfilling that promise."


    "I''m sorry Belle." There''s this certain pain in Dn''s eyes. I looked away because I could not stand


    watching him like this.


    "So how was her kiss?" I said teasingly.


    "Not as sweet as yours sadly." He replied.


    I smack him on his arm while hugging him tightly.


    ???????


    AT DYLAN''S LOCKER ROOM RIGHT AFTER THE FIGHT.


    Alexei''s hands are on Dn''s cor. They are surrounded by Alexei''s men.


    Alexei: The deal was for you to protect her, not to take advantage of her. And what were you thinking in


    bringing her here? Are you out of your fucking mind?


    Dn removed Alexei''s hand off of him.


    Dn: She gave me a chance. I am keeping her.


    Alexei''s men grabbed Dn and pinned him to the wall.


    Alexei: You fucking know who she belongs to! Don''t test me Dn. You know what I am capable of.


    End it with her tonight or I''m going to make sure you deal with satan himself after I put a bullet in your


    fucking head!


    Alexei exited the locker room, while his men lets go of Dn.
