SWNOVELS Marchetti’s Obsession Chapter 3
Enzo Marchetti
-Gli investimenti fatti in azienda per il nuovo Yacht sono sicuri e garantiscono una redditivita superiore a qualsiasi partn non avranno perdite. (The investments made in the company for the new yacht are safe and guarantee a profitability superior to any partner, they will not have losses). -1 explain in detail about the model that will be launched, it is obvious that only multimillionaires will have access to such a work of art that will provide great income to any shareholder.
-Non mettiamo in dubbio le sue parole e approvo il progetto, signor Marchetti (We do not question your words and I approve the project, Mr. Marchetti) -1 nod without showing any emotion. I am not interested in your investments and this all a front for the business I am conducting.
There is not much to add to this meeting so we adjourn, I go to my office and check some documents on my laptop until my secretary interrupts.
-sir, your brother Kendall has arrived.
-Send him in," the eldest of my mother’s set of quadruplets enters the office with a scowl on his face.
since when do we have to ask permission to come in? -he interjects, taking a seat.
-She’s new, don't be mad at her,” Kendall just lets out a growl that I find very funny, he's such a grumpy puppy.
shall we go? -he questions.
I look at him blankly and 1 can see his expression dropping.
-1 guess you forgot I'm buying my first car today,” he mutters.
Ym sorry. I have so much work and commitments that I forgot this commitment to you.
“Yeah, right,” he grumbles. -I'm sure that woman...
“Why does everyone hate Kristin? -1 ask, interrupting him, knowing where he's going with his comment.
she takes you away from us and what she did years ago is unforgivable," I sigh.
Turns out that blonde I knew in college turned into a vampire the first chance she got, it didn’t bother me at all, since it made everything more fun and I didn't have to worry about simple things.
It's clear that lions or any shifter in our category can't sleep with humans, however, Kristin transformed to be by my side. What she did ten years ago is something that is still percolating in her life, she killed a human from my father's pride, as she was not in control of her hunger at that time and that caused the fury of everyone, including the great king Leonardo Marchetti, who did not want her to live in the territory and I could not leave Kristin who was the only person who understands how I feel. That made my father very angry and I had no choice but to leave his house, move to Venice and take over the Italian mafia with the help of my uncle Fernando.
Tamara's father left everything to Fer before he passed away, he was not immortal like us and my uncle, being my father’ beta, could not handle this business, he entrusted it to me and I ended up becoming the Sicilian Don, since I also took th liberty of taking the part that corresponded to my father.
'm sure my father was annoyed with him for that, however, I have no idea, as I haven't seen him for ten years now. My mother sometimes comes to Venice, we talk and then go back to the herd, on the other hand, my brothers often visit me and today Kendall invades my house.
-Let's not talk about Kr
istin, I'll take you for the car in a few hours and then in the evening we go to some disco, -I tell him.
Without Kristin? -he asks.
-No Kristin, just you and me," the dark-haired man nods and leaves my office to walk around the building. -Akor," the mar immediately enters the office, “Did you do what I asked? -I question.
1 have left a man watching her, the information will be sought and we will know who she is soon,” I nod.
That girl looks just like her, I couldn't help but relive her memories when I saw her face, sigh, Astrid died, yet I have never stopped loving her, Kristin is upset because my love is the one thing she can’t get and she will never beat the ghost of m; ex.
I always told her that I wouldn't love her and that if she stayed by my side she would be miserable, the only thing I can g
her is luxuries, comforts and s*x, I have nothing else to offer her, she accepts that and it pisses me off when she complair
about things we made clear in the past.
-l want to have that data soon,” my right-hand man just nods and then leaves the office.
My concentration today is lousy and I won't be able to work well like this, so I turn off the computer, get up from my chai and remove non-existent wrinkles from my suit.
Cancel my pending appointments,” I say to my secretary as I leave the office. -And you can go home when you do” the young woman nods, she doesn't question me and I like that.
Miss Vitale is good at her job, she hasn't been doing it long, but in a short time she has come to understand me, she mak 200d excuses to cancel my meetings when I don't feel like attending. I meet Kendall in the foyer and from there we go to the car park to get into one of the armoured vans.

“Where are you? I read Kristin's message as I bring the glass of whiskey to my lips.
“Don’t wait for me.” I reply to put my phone away.
-Do you want me to get you some fun? I question the dark-haired man.
“You know we can’t handle humans,” I grimace because he’s absolutely right.
-Good answer, brat,” I stand up.
“Where are you going?
-1 have to go up to the office,” he nods, walking towards the door that is opened by the security of the premises.
The hallway is covered in red lights and some of the associates are enjoying themselves in their private rooms, the smell s*x, alcohol and illicit substance flood my nostrils.
-Mr. Marchetti,” I show no expression as he takes a seat in my chair. I interlace my fingers on the desk as my gaze goes to the guy in front of me, I can tell he's been beaten and I can smell the human's fear.
The blows are not visible to the human eye, perhaps he is a gambler.
-Mr. Lennox, he is an indebted gambler in our casino in Rome," they explain the case to me.
I sigh.
it's quite normal for humans to be in debt up to their balls, I pull out my gun and place it on the desk. I hear his heart racing and the smell of fear increases.
-Alpha, controll il portafoglio dell'uomo (Alpha, check the man's wallet),’ Akor's voice comes into my head and I listen. Fate must be very 00d to me, I can't believe my eyes. I remove the photograph from his wallet and toss it to the guy. “It's just that he's a businessman, Mr. Lennox.
