Chapter 97: Chapter 95: Incident

Third POV

After her threat seemingly worked on them, a smile spreads on her lips and she beckons Kate and Aya to help her.

"Aya helps with ingredients while Kate helps with utensils" They divide it that way and they get to work.

The other maids there stay in corners, watching them with hawk-like eyes as a look of envy is directed towards the two maids helping Bella.

"I would like chocolate toppings" Bella says and turns to face the girls" What would you have" She asks and Kate enthusiastically replies.

"Strawberry" And Bella nods before turning to face Aya.

"Same" She replies with a small smile.

Bella nods and they continue doing what they are doing.

Just as she is so focused on what she is doing, a pair of strong arms wrap around her waist from behind.

She instantly freezes and slowly tries to stabilize her breathing which has now turned rapid with her now widened eyes frantically looking around.

"Bells" The voice calls out pulling her more into the warm embrace.

The moment the familiar voice hits her, her body starts relaxing and she closes her eyes for a brief second.

Slowly she turns around in the arms of the person to get a better look at his face.

"You scared me" She whispers in a low voice and watches how a grin starts spreading on his face .

"Sorry" He says with an apologetic expression.

"Hmm... Emi what are you doing in the kitchen" She asks, completely oblivious to the fact that the maids have frozen all with widened eyes.

I could ask you the same, you need to rest Bells" Emiliano says his voice turning slightly stern as he glares at her.

Bella giggles and raises her hand to touch his cheeks leading to some flour staining it.

Bella giggles and Emiliano stares at her confused.

"You know Raff would not like you here" He says and Bella rolls her eyes before pushing him away from her and turning to face her task.

She is busy with the frosting as the cupcakes have already been put in the oven.

"You won’t speak to me" Emiliano asks and drags a strand of her hair just to annoy her and it works as she turns to swat his hand away.

"Help me with the gloves Aya please" Bella tells her and turns to glare at Emiliano.

"Raffaele..." Emiliano trails off after mentioning his brother and staring at Bella’s face as he waits for her to react.

She passes him a look and he decides to just shut up about it.

At the mention of Raffaele her mind moves to him and instantly she finds herself lost in thoughts.

His dark green orbs appear before her eyes and she remembers the intensity with which he spoke and his words.

Emiliano turns his attention to everything she is working on and he licks his lips while the other girls nervously focus on their task.

Aya had completely forgotten she was asked for gloves and when the oven dings, Bea walks towards it mechanically and pulls it open.

With her mind occupied, she doesn’t know when she stretches out her hand to bring the tray out.

A loud scream from her and a growl jolts everybody and instantly brings her back to reality.

She opens her eyes which were shut tightly due to the pain she felt from the hot pan.

Her gaze lands on a broad heaving chest and slowly she raises her head and the forest green orbs which have been hunting her mind come to view.

Instantly she feels the need to recoil but the burn in her hand and instantly she looks down to see both their hands red.

However only one of her hands is slightly red from the burn and both of Raffaele’s are burnt.

Tears instantly start falling as a sob escapes her lips and before she can stop herself she pulls him into a hug.

"Ar..Are y..you ok?" Bella hiccups rubbing soothing circles on his back even though she knows it will do nothing to the pain.

That is where she is wrong as the moment she wraps her arms around him the man starts to feel his anger going down.

Before he can control himself he wraps his arms around her his face going to the crook of her neck.

His injured torso and hand are long forgotten.

"Baby" His gruff voice breathes out and he pulls away from the hug only to quickly take her hand to examine it.

"Call the doctor," Raffaele growls at his brother.

Emiliano who is standing there with a look of disapproval gestures to the door.

"Drav Is out there just have him attend to you" Emiliano says referring to Draven who came with them to grab a file.

Raffaele looks reluctant and it’s not because he doubts his friend’s skills but rather because he doesn’t want any man touching his woman.

Emiliano knowing his brother all too well wrapped an arm around Bells and quickly pulls her to the living room.

The maids who have been frozen due to the presence of Raffaele all have their faces washed in fear.

"We are dead" one whispers and the others who are already sweating buckets nod their heads in agreement.

Right there a maid bursts out crying and the others feel the urge to join her as they all know what sort of man Raffaele Vincenti and they are all aware of the fact he doesn’t play with his woman.

Emiliano leads Bella to the living room and immediately drops her beside Draven before showing him her hand.

Rafaele, who has a worried expression on his face Immediately moves closer and sits between them.

Turning to Bella he immediately holds her hand in his red ones.

"Does it hurt much?" He questions his voice low and tender as he casts a look to her face.

Bella shakes her head at his words.

"Should we go to the hospital?" He questions when he notices the tears in her eyes.

"You are hurt" The moment it leaves her lips his eyes soften further and he stares at his hands in nonchalance.

He doesn’t mind it especially if it would be her showing him care like this.

"Because of me" Bella hiccups as her gaze moves to his face wondering how he isn’t blaming her for anything.

Raffaele stares at her and moves his hand to cup her cheeks when suddenly they hear a clearing of throat and he is shoved aside.

Raffaele glares at Draven who returns it with his usual calm gaze.

"Allow me to attend to her" He says, his voice as usual hoarse and low.

Emiliano who has already brought the first aid box moves to a one sitter and is busy on a phone call with a small smile stretched on his lips.

Draven moves towards Bella and lightly attends to the small wound on her left hand.

Bella smiles at him grateful and the man nods before moving to grab Raffaele’s with a grim expression on his face.

He starts attending to Raffaele’s hand and even glares at him.

Seeing that the man is not responding to him touching his wound he smirks slightly before applying so much pressure on Raffaele’s hand it has him letting out a low groan.

"Asshole" Raffaele curses slowly when he sees the smirk on his friend’s face.

Draven’s face returns to normal as he moves away from Raffaele and stands up.

"Tomorrow" That is all he says before walking out of the mansion.

Raffaele doesn’t bother saying anything as they are used to communicating that way.

"Oh no the cupcakes and Dean" Bella says with a small gasp as she stands up suddenly remembering about the poor guy she left in the garden.

"Who is that?" Raffaele asks with a darkened expression when another man’s name escapes her lips.

"I..I told him to help me look after my stuff in the garden" Bella says fidgeting with her hands nervously.

Raffaele narrows his eyes before using his head to signal for Emiliano to take care of it.

Emiliano stands up with a nod and starts heading towards the door that leads directly to the garden.

Bella turns to walk towards the kitchen when suddenly huge fingers wrap around her wrist.

"Where are you going?" Raffaele questions, his voice gruff as he stares at her with an intense look.

"I..kitchen to fi..." Raffaele doesn’t let her finish her words as he suddenly tugs her towards his body and she lands on his lap.

"The maids will take care of it" He says simply and she starts shaking her head attempting to get up and in the process accidentally hits his bandaged torso earning a groan from him.

"Stay" he practically orders with a firm voice and she nods her head and relaxes her body against his.

Just as the back door opens to reveal Emiliano and Dean, Raffaele wraps his fingers around her luscious curls and pulls her head closer before joining their lips.

Dean’s eyes widened..
