Chapter 111
Nathan looked out of the window of the car that he was in. He was finally meeting with Gianni and her family today and hell, he wasn’t feeling so confident right now. His thoughts were all over the place and he was having a hard time thinking about what he would say when he met her again. Last night, he had thought about what he would say to her and this morning as he got dressed, he also did some form of rehearsal but as the car sped off towards the direction of her family mansion. Everything he rehearsed flew off his head. He couldn’t back out and tell the driver to take him back to the residence that he had been staying in because that would be disrespectful to Gianni’s parents since they were aware that he was coming over. He didn’t want the first impression of him to be someone who couldn’t keep his promise. “We have arrived,”The driver announced. Nathan was in awe. The entrance of the property was huge and screamed old money. Why did someone like Gianni whose family comes fro

Nathan walked nervously towards the couple, trying to grasp their mood and know if they were welcoming or not. Gianni’s mom had a bright smile on and her expression was soft and motherly, her dad didn’t look scary like he had expected because of everything he had read about her family and just how much power they had in Italy. In fact, the old man was smiling when he got close to them. “Good day sir, ma’am,”Nathan greeted politely while bowing slightly. “Hello, welcome son, we have been expecting you,”Gianni's father said in response to his greetings. “I got this,”He said and handed the bottle of wine to the father and the flower he got to Gianni’s mom who accepted it with a smile. She smelled the flower and clearly approved of it because she nodded and smiled at him. “Welcome to our house, son, please come in, we have been expecting you,”She said and reached for his hand which he gladly gave. He felt relief that her parents were at least welcoming. Maybe they didn’t know what

“Hi, Gia,”Nathan said. he wasn’t sure what else to say and there was silence in the room. He couldn’t look away from Gianni and she was staring directly into his eyes too, probably expecting him to say something but he couldn’t get any other words out and it was like she didn’t even hear his ‘hi’ or she chose to ignore it. She was wearing an oversized polo and a pair of skinny jeans, it was a basic outfit but she managed to make it look elegant. He hair was held up in a messy bun and she didn’t have any makeup on but that didn’t make her any less beautiful and breath-taking. If he wasn’t so consumed with nervousness, he might have actually started drooling. His eyes met hers again and for a moment he thought he saw longing in her eyes but it was gone in the next moment he concluded he must have imagined it because why would Gianni long for him? She might not hate him right now but she definitely does not like him either so the yawning he saw in her eyes was him projecting his feeling

Nathan wanted to come clean and tell her everything that brought him to Venice even about Sebastian’s marriage talk but he couldn’t say the words. They just made up. what if he over shares and then she ends up feeling overwhelmed and then she decides that she wanted none of it or worse, thinks that he came to Venice just to get her to do what he wanted? It would be a disaster and he wanted to avoid that. “Thank you,”He said instead of saying anything else. He still had about three weeks to tell her about the other stuff. For now, he needed to focus on solidifying her forgiveness and letting her get used to having him around. After that, he would finally tell her to come back to Italy with him. not even because of the marriage thing that Seb talked about but because he wanted her close where he could always see her. Sydney was so far from Venice. It would be hard to see her as much as he wanted if he didn’t convince her to move back with him. “Don’t thank me, you crazy man. Do you k

First kisses were for testing, tasting and they were a question and this kiss answered all the questions that had been running through his mind concerning what he really felt for Gianni and he was right, about how he felt for her and the fact that she felt something for him too, warmed his heart. Nathan angled his head and deepened the kiss as Gianni lifted her arms and wrapped around his neck, standing on her tiptoe, her lips parting beneath his. Her breath catching, sharp, and sweet when the tip of his tongue met hers and they danced in sync as they continued kissing. They broke apart for air. “I love how you taste,”Nathan whispered before he claimed her lips again, she moaned softly. He tugged at her bottom lips, biting and sucking in before taking her tongue into his mouth. He never thought he would be kissing Gianni when he got into the car earlier but he got lucky, she didn’t hate him and she was letting him kiss her while kissing him right back. “Hell, my parents,”Gianni sa

“My parents like you a lot, Mama especially, but then again, she has been trying to set me up with a potential husband and you might have fit into what she wants,”Gianni said as they took a walk in the flower field later that evening. He spent hours talking to her parents and her dad had suggested that Gianni show him around the house. which is what they were currently doing. “I am glad they do,”“So, you don’t mind that my mom might be trying to set us up?”Nathan shook his head in response. Wait until she found out his dad was trying to be a matchmaker too. “Should I?” “How long are you going to be in Italy for?”Gianni asked, ignoring his question. Nathan took her hand in his. She looked down at their joint hands before looking at him, he smiled and she did too. “Dad gave me a whole month. I thought it would really take that long to convince you to forgive me but you are such a kind-hearted woman and now I have three complete weeks and five days to spend exploring Italy and be

Nathan waited long enough for them to enter the house and closed the door behind them before he backed her against the door and claimed her lips in an intense kiss that was nothing like the ones they had shared earlier today, this kiss was a lot more intense and passionate with only one end goal in mind. The bed. Gia was there with him as her hands found their way to his hair, she was just as heated as he was and he liked that he wasn’t alone. When he left the house earlier, he never could have imagined that Gia would come back with him not to talk of making out with him right now. This was clearly his lucky year because everything he wanted so far, he got. He wanted the rest of his life to be like that. He always wanted to get what he wanted. “I want you so bad right now, Gia,”He whispered to her as he pulled her along with him to the bedroom he had been using since he arrived. Once in the room, he pulled her to him again and kissed her hard. He reached between them and took off he

They spent the next three weeks mostly together, they barely left the bed and when they did, it was to eat and sometimes they went over to the mansion to see her parents. They couldn’t hide the fact that they were together from her parents because her mom caught on almost immediately when they arrived at the house three days after they left. She had been overjoyed and hugged Nathan. She went on to talk about marriage plans and Gianni had shut her up but she didn’t give up. Nathan was pleased that they accepted their relationship. When he called Sebastian, the old man already knew because Gianni’s dad had told him and he was pleased too. Even if they had not approved, he still would have chosen to be with Gianni.Sebastian made sure to remind Nathan that he was to marry Gianni. That was the agreement. Nathan had rolled his eyes and told him to mind his business. He wanted to marry Gianni but he also wanted it to be at their pace and not because his dad wanted him to but because of some

“That’s a lie, you saw me as a fool, and knew I couldn’t resist you so you decided to have fun with me, hoping that I would foolishly go back to Sydney with you and be your wife, you were right, I would have gone with you. I fell for your lies. I trusted you so blindly because I thought you of all people knew me and cared for me,”She let out. He couldn’t blame her. He should have told her everything. He had three weeks to tell her but he kept stalling until that bastard interfered. It was what he wanted. What he had been hoping would happen which was why he had called Gianni. Nathan wanted to find Pedro and rip him in halves. “Gianni, look at me. I know. I did you wrong by not telling you what my dad wanted but my feelings for you are real. Yes, I was going to ask you to marry me someday but not because Dad wants it or because of what I stand to gain from our union but because I love you,”He said in a pleading voice. He wished he could turn back the hand of time, just long enough f

The plane ride back to Sydney was long and filled with silence. Nathan tried to talk to Gianni but she refused to speak to him so he gave up and decided to give her the space that she needed. She went to the bedroom on the plane while he remained seated. He had to speak to some of the directors who called him to let him know that they were aware of what had happened because it was all over the news which further proved there was someone within the mansion carrying the family news outside. Nathan made a mental note to fish them out when he finally settled down enough. “Gia? We are landing,” He said, tapping her gently, she opened her eyes and glared at him, removing his hand from her body. He nodded wordlessly and walked back to take his seat. She came out a few minutes later and took the seat further away from him. Even though it had only been a couple of hours since she stopped talking to him, it felt like forever and he missed her. He didn’t have time to dwell on that as the plane
