Dipping Into Sin 2: Digging Deeper Into Sin (20 page)

Chapter Forty

Simone

            As I dressed the
girls in their navy blue dresses, memories of Grandma flooded my mind like a sea
of thoughts smashing against my head. Standing in the middle of their bedroom,
I tried to control the emotions that flowed throughout my body. Grandma and I
worked on this bedroom. We saw it transform from a nursery to a toddler room
designed to fit the personalities of three beautiful and unique girls. We would
laugh about the girls and their differences. This room…this house was filled
with laughter and functioned on Grandma’s strength. Now she’s gone, and I don’t
know if I’ll ever be as strong as she was.

            “Mommy, we can’t
forget to bring the box,” Olivia said as she held the multi-colored box that
she and her sisters designed with Andriano.
Andriano
…

            Reminding myself
to remain strong for the sake of my daughters, I continued to brush Acelia’s
hair.

            “Are you ready?”
Victoria asked as she entered the girls’ bedroom. Nodding my head, she ushered
Olivia and Jasmine out of the room. Hopping into the limousine, I placed the
sunglasses over my eyes and reminded myself that I will not cry today.

Two
weeks later

Holding the letter close to my heart, I bit
back the cry that threatened to escape my trembling lips. For the past two
weeks, I tried to maintain strength and courage as I dealt with the questions
that my daughters had. First they lost their Nana and now the man who they
called Daddy has left their life abruptly. How can I explain to my daughters that
he chose La Cosa Nostra over them again? How do I break down the kind of
complex life that he had? Instead, I had to deal with my hurt by myself. I had
to put a Band-Aid over all of the wounds that my children and I had.

Adding more tissues to the pile of tissues
that formed a dome on my bed, I bit down on my knuckles with enough force to
break skin. But even that did nothing to alleviate the pain that I felt in my
broken heart. Reaching for my drawer, I pulled the little box that he gave to
me five years ago. I needed to find peace in my heart. Opening the box, my
puffy eyes looked down at this single solitaire diamond ring.

Pulling the diamond ring out, my eyes
focused on the engraving that was etched into the band of the ring: My heart
will always find you. Slipping the ring onto my finger, I was surprised that it
was a perfect fit. Just as I was about to place the box back into the drawer,
the box slipped out of my hands as the inner workings fell out. A cube sized folded
paper fell out of the box. Unfolding the piece of the paper, I recognized
Andriano’s handwriting.

Bella Mia, 

I woke up with every
intention to give up everything just to be with you. But it was not that
simple, bella mia. I never expected my family to accept you, but I never knew
just how ruthless my family could be…using my heart against me. I planned on
taking you far away. Taking you away from my fucked up world and finally doing
right by you. Starting with going down on one knee.

There were consequences
that I couldn’t bear to live with. I couldn’t live with the fact that you would
have to look over your shoulders for the rest of your life. Moreover, I
couldn’t live with the fact that you could get harmed because of me. I would rather
die first. But since I’m worth more alive than dead, I’d rather part ways with
you right now then to have people get to you in order to get to me. I’m going
to have to sink into the darkened state that I left behind when I met you. I’m
going to have to be the man that I was ready to give up for you.

In our perfect world, we
would be traveling to every place that you dreamed about. We would have kept
our baby. We would have been married. We would have lived out our happiness and
grown old together. But, this is not our time.

I will find a way to get
back to you. I will give you everything that you deserved from life…from me.

                                                                                    A. 

            Swallowing the tears that hung onto the rim of my
eyes, I felt this burden that weighed heavily on my heart as I thought about
how much loss that I experienced. Andriano lived on through my daughter’s
smiles, their attitudes, and the memories of them getting a chance to meet
their father. A warmness touched my heart as I found peace through my pain.

~****~

            Waking up feeling more refreshed, I headed down
the stairs and prepared breakfast for the girls. After, I made their lunch and
ran up the stairs to wake them up. Once the girls finished eating, I sent them
straight into the bathroom where I washed them up. Everything seemed to run
smoothly this morning. The girls did not fuss about the clothes that I picked
out for them, and I was able to get them out before I started work. As I opened
the front door, an elderly Caucasian man had his fingers near the doorbell.

            “Can I help you?” I asked, startled by this
unannounced visit.

            Fixing his glasses, the Caucasian man introduced
himself as, “Mr. Dollfield?”

            “How can I help you?” I asked as I swooped hair
behind my ears and closed the front door behind me.

            “Well Ms. Sinn, I was your husband’s attorney
before his untimely death. Is there a way that we could discuss his will?”

            Puzzled, I asked, “Husband?”

            “Andriano Balducci,” he confirmed.

            Looking over at my daughters, I cleared my throat
before saying, “You have the wrong person.”

            “He did say that you would say that,” the
stern-looking lawyer remarked as he pulled out a camera. Shifting the screen,
the lawyer handed me the camera. Andriano’s face appeared on the screen as my
finger pressed the play button.

Andriano:
Bella
mia, I know that you’ll always do everything to protect our daughters. But, Mr.
Dollfield is safe. He’s my attorney and he’s been ordered to make sure that you
accept everything that is in the will.

            “Daddy!” the girls
screamed in mix-matched unison.

            “I want to see Daddy,”
whined Acelia.

            After allowing the girls to see their father, I
handed the camera over to him and said, “Now is not a good time. I have to drop
the girls off and head over to work. Perhaps you come at another time.”

            “Yes, sure. How about tomorrow?” He asked as he
pulled out his card.

            “Tomorrow won’t work. Maybe on Friday at 9:00 in
the morning?”

            “That works. Have a good day Ms. Sinn,” walking
away, Mr. Dollfield hopped into his car and drove off.

Two
days later

            The ringing of the doorbell snapped me out of my
trance as I jumped off the couch. Today was the day that Andriano’s lawyer was
going to come and discuss this will that was drafted before his death. Opening
the door, I came face to face with Mr. Dollfield. Ushering him into the home, I
guided him into the living room.

            “Please have a seat,” I said as I sat across from
him.

            “Thank you, Ms. Sinn,” he responded as he plopped
himself on the couch. “Now to discuss this will. Mr. Balducci has various
estates, properties, businesses, stocks, accounts, and a number of vaults that
he has given to you and his daughters. This is an estimated $6.8 billion
dollars. I will just need your signatures on these documents so that it can be
officially transferred into your name. Also, before he passed, Mr. Balducci
purchased a house here in North Carolina. He has also placed the house in your
name,” pulling out a set of keys, Mr. Dollfield placed the keys on the coffee
table.  “He installed a security system that has authorization codes. It is all
written down on this paper,” he continued as he slid the paper across the
coffee table.

            “This is just too much. I don’t know where to
begin,” I said as I struggled to search for the right words. Overwhelmed, I
stood up and paced the room while raking my fingers through my bob. “Andriano
was married to another woman. Maybe there was a mix-up somewhere.”

            Looking over the file, Mr. Dollfield looked up at
me and asked, “You are Simone Sinn, correct?”

            Nodding my head, he continued, “Mr. Balducci has
awarded you and his daughters everything. We will need to proceed with the
signing of the papers and I will have to make copies for you to have for your
records.” Stretching his short arm out, Mr. Dollfield handed a pen to me.
Hunching over, I read through the will and then finally signed all of the
documents.

            “Great Ms. Sinn,” Mr. Dollfield stood up and
shook my hand. “I will be mailing the copies to the new house.”

            “Wait, what?” I asked.

            “I have specific instructions to mail all
documents to your new home,” replied Mr. Dollfield. Nodding my head, I walked
Mr. Dollfield out the front door. Closing the door behind me, I leaned against
the door and exhaled the jitters out.

After a few minutes passed, I released the
door handle that I gripped tightly. Making my way up the stairs, I headed
straight to my daughters’ bedroom and looked at all three of them sleeping. To
some degree, I felt guilty about signing the documents. Money cannot replace
the loss of their father, and unfortunately it appears that this is the
reality. Feeling nauseous, I ran out of the bedroom and puked into the toilet
bowl.

            Running cool water over my face, I lifted my head
and stared at my reflection in the mirror. Inhaling and exhaling, I repeated my
breathing exercise and reminded myself of my hidden strength.
You can do
this.

Driving up the hill in the remote outskirts
of North Carolina, I came across the only mansion that sat on a vast amount of
land. Pressing on the brakes, I stopped as my eyes took in just how huge the
mansion was. Tapping lightly on the gas pedal, I continued to drive and stopped
at the security pad. Shuffling through my bag, I pulled out the paper with the
details about the codes. Typing in the seven-digit code, I pressed enter and
saw the gates open wide. Driving through, I came across another security pad
and typed the code to close the gates.

            Parking the car in front of entryway leading to
the double doors, I pulled the keys out of my bag and attempted to unlock the
door with trembling fingers.

            “Mommy, this house is bigger than our house,”
Olivia pointed out as her eyes widened with excitement.

            “Well Livy, this is your new home,” I announced
as I turned the knob and pushed the door open.

            Running past me, the girls screamed with
excitement as I stood in the doorway and nearly collapsed at the sight before
me.

“Andriano,” I said as I became paralyzed at
the sight of him. “No,” I said as I shook my head with tear-filled eyes.

“Bella mia,” he called out to me as he
walked towards me with all three girls in his arms. Dropping them to their
feet, Andriano inched closer as I backed away from him slowly. Catching me by
my waist, Andriano pulled my body closer to him and whispered against my lips,
“I told you that my heart would always find you.” Capturing my lips, Andriano’s
arms wrapped around my body like a glove as I melted against his mouth. Lifting
me slightly off of my feet, I snaked my arms around his neck and kissed his
tender lips as tears spilled down my cheeks.

A filter of giggles ended our moment of
bliss as Andriano dropped me down to my feet. Looking into Andriano’s eyes, I
gave him questioning glances. Softening his eyes, Andriano gave me a silent
answer before saying, “I’ve missed you all so much.”

“I missed you too, Daddy,” Acelia said in a
low voice as Andriano picked her up.

“Let’s go see your bedrooms. I had them
decorated with everything that you’ll like,” Andriano said as he led the way
throughout the house.

Chapter Forty-Two

Andriano

My mouth watered with need to lick the
wetness that flowed between her legs, as my cock strained with swollen balls
that threatened to burst.
Licking her inner
thighs, I spread her legs wider and focused on her drenched puffy flaps of her
ripened pussy. With eager fingers, I spread her lips only to expose her swollen
clit. Her clit was glazed with the gloss that flowed out of her. Licking my
lips, my mouth covered the nub. Closing my eyes, I savored in the moment as her
clit pounded against my lips. Loving the feel of her erected clit, I began to
suck and tug harder. Grabbing a fistful of my hair, Simone tugged on my strands
as my fingers made its way to her dripping canal.

“Unnnuuuhhhh…ohhh
shit baby. Come take your pussy,” she moaned which only encouraged me to
continue to stroke her until oblivion.

Her pussy clutched onto my fingers as she
tightened her quivering hole with enough firmness to encourage me to keep
stroking. The pads of my fingertips grazed over her soft, fleshy insides with
vigor denoted to please. Branding her insides, I continued to rub over her
spot.

“I want you,” she begged in between her
whimpers of incoherent ramblings. Lifting her back off of the mattress, Simone
switched positions as she straddled me.

Unbuttoning my pants, Simone dug her hand in
and captured my erection. Hissing, a groan escaped my lips as I looked up at
her lustful eyes.

“Come take this dick, bella mia.” Licking
her lips, Simone’s eyes danced with excitement as she pulled my pants down
before reaching for the waistband of my boxers. Dragging the boxers down,
Simone smiled with appreciation as my cock extended once it was finally free.
Her glassy eyes became mesmerized as her lips parted. Sucking in her bottom
lip, my cock released pre-cum with appreciation. 

“You just don’t know what you do to me,” I
admitted huskily as the clear fluid traveled down the tip.

Leaning forward, Simone’s lips wrapped
around the swollen tip of my length, savoring the little release that coated my
dick. A moan escaped from the hollowness of her throat, as her tongue lapped
the length of me with slow strokes. My fingers traveled to her hair as I
gripped her tresses and guided her warm mouth.

“Aaahhh fuck,” I moaned as I moved in and
out of her tight mouth. Pushing her mouth away from me, I picked up Simone and
slid her body up my body and positioned her wet cunt over my dick. Slamming her
pussy onto me, I held onto her thighs and moved my hands up to her breast.
Squeezing her soft breast in my hands, I watched as my bella mia’s eyelids
fluttered.

Pumping my cock into her, I asked, “Who does
this belong to?” Circling her waist like clockwork, she rubbed her wetness all
over my cock.

“It’s all yours baby,” Simone proudly
confessed.
