Passion
Rosalia POV.
As I look in those aqua blue eyes, I thought He is a very handsome specimen.
"I'm sorry" he says with a gentle voice.
His husky tone made me shiver. I blink and look up at him in daze. It's as if I'm in some kind of trance.
"It's okay" I whisper in an equally soft voice.
I wince as his hand is on my waist. My body is aching with his tight grip. He notices me wincing and takes a step back.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going"
I watch as he turns around and leaves.
"Earth to Rosalia" David snaps his fingers in front of my face.
"Stop day dreaming and follow me."
As we walk in tarmac I see the same man with aqua blue eyes looking our way. I don't want to make eye contact but, it's as if my eyes move on their own accord and connect with his.
"I feel like Rubatosis, where you feel the unsettling awareness of your own heartbeat."
I avert my eyes from his gaze and walk on the stairway of our flight. My heartbeat accelerates as I feel his gaze on me. I breath a sigh of relief as i step in the jet.
Damien POV.
I was busy on a call from dad when I collide with somebody on the airport. My aqua eyes connect with her amber ones. She is breathtakingly beautiful, I thought. Her eyes are what lures me in.
"It feels like Opia, where you feel the ambiguous intensity of looking someone in the eye which can feel simultaneously invasive and vulnerable."
"I'm sorry" I say with a gentle voice.
"It's okay" she whisper in a soft voice.
If I had not been this close to her, I would have not heard her whisper. My hand is on her slim waist. I see it as she winces though, she is very discreet in hiding it. But as the business man I'm I notice it. She is in pain, her eyes show so many emotions all together. I steady her on her feet and take a step back.
"I'm sorry I was not looking where I was going" I say in a gentle voice.
"It's okay" she whisper in a soft voice.
Her voice is guarded. It's as if she is hiding her emotions behind her voice. Confused by why I'm thinking so much about a girl whom I just met was unsettling with me. I clear my thoughts and start walking to the jet. Don't know why but I stop and once again look at the girl who is walking near another jet. I watch her with steady intent look as she strides at fast pace towards the stairway of their flight. Her eyes are what got me intrigued. I'm captivated by them. I was so lost in admiring her that I did not pay attention to what my flight captain was saying.
"What?" I question to my captain,
"Sir we ready to board the jet" he replies.
With a nod from me the captain gets ready to board the jet. After sometime we are in the air. I'm trying to relax in the cabin, but sleep does not come to my avail as the amber eyes of that girl flashes in front of me. There was some kind of vulnerability behind those orbs. I groan with frustration. As I don't get any sleep I decide to work on my laptop. After around 3 hours of work I try to relax my tense muscles. I lie on bed and close my eyes , I'm immediately in deep slumber. Around 9 hours later we land on the New York airport.
A black Mercedes is already waiting for me and my driver James greets me with "Good morning."
I greet him back and he open the car door for me to get inside the black pastel. Once I'm settled in my seat. James pulls out of the driveway and within minutes we are on the streets of Manhattan. I will be meeting my brother Rocco, Olivia and princess after 6 months. It's been long. Around 70 minutes drive later we reach on the upper east side of Manhattan where my brother resides with his family. James pulls in front of the gates of magnificent villa. The guard knows its me so gives us easy access to enter through the gate. There is a round driveway to the entrance of the villa. At the entrance I see my brother Rocco is waiting with his second hand Gavin. I get down from the car. Rocco takes a step forward and hugs me giving a pat on the back.
"Welcome home brother" He murmurs.
"It's good to be back brother" I reply. I shake hand with Gavin giving him a nod.
"Where is Olivia and princess's ? " I ask .
"She is in drawing room with princess's waiting for you. Come lets meet them." Says Rocco.
I nod at him and we both walk through front steps of the villa and enter. As we both were walking through the corridor towards the drawing room I hear little feet running towards me.
"Uncle Dammy" my little princess screams running towards me, I get down on my knees as her small body crashes in me.
"Whoa ohoo" calm down fire cracker. I laugh and stand with princess in my arm's. Standing I spin her around. Princess giggles heartily.
"Enough Salvatore, my princess might faint," calls Rocco from behind us.
"Calm yourself darling, you know Damien cares for our princess like she is his as well." appears Olivia.
With princess's still in my arms, I smile at Olivia.
"Missed me Cupcake" I murmured while giving her a one side hug.
She hugs me back, and takes a step back after giving me a kiss on the cheek.
"Uncle Dammy , you came to visit me" princess averts my attention towards her.
"Yes princess, how can I stay away from such a pretty little princess as yourself."
" I know, I know" says princess to our amusement.
As we all were walking near the drawing room, I chuckle as princess says proudly "I have that effect on boys."
"Really princess," I ask.
"Yes uncle, Dammy"
Rocco groans " oh oh,"
"Princessa come here," says Moretti.
"Papa also has same effect on girls uncle Dammy, papa himself was saying." I laugh.
"He is to also kiss them. Eew, I will not kiss boys uncle, they have cooties." I give a soft chuckle at that. I watch as 'cupcake' is silently glaring at Rocco.
"Babe it's nothing like that, you know I have eyes only for you," Murmurs Rocco seductively.
"Your sleeping on couch today darling."
"Babe its not fair"
"Nothing is fair in love and war honey." Whispers Olivia battling her eyes at Rocco.
