A Bride For The Don 9. Perharps I was wrong
JADE The day went by in a blur and once again, the estate was thrown into darkness by night. After my talk with Luciano, he went off to work and I never did set my eyes on him up until now.I never knew he worked this late.I did a great deal of reading today. Luciano had a huge library up stairs and I delighted in exploring its books, the entire library oozing of vast knowledge and ideas.After that, I ate launch, watched a bit of television before dozing off in the living room and waking up again.I had expected to see Luciano back though. And for some reason, it saddened me when the maids and guards informed me that he was not back yet. I ate dinner, showered up and retired to my bed but yet still no sign of Luciano.Hours had passed as I laid on my bed, my eyes observing the skies. Lightning flashed across the dark horizon, signalling a storm approaching.Was that a bad sign?Quickly I picked up my phone from where it laid. It was close to midnight. Just few minutes away.I

JADEThree days had passed already. So fast. I still had not yet recovered from the tumultuous events of the last few days. I still find it hard to believe that I almost got raped in just my second night of being in this family and by Luciano's brother for that matter.And Luciano whom I expected to be my comfort and shield, treated me like I was a common object, a possession of his all because I ran to his brother for help. We rarely even spoke these days.I never imagined him to be so petty and keep such malice with me all because of that.What is a brother whom you can not meet in times of distress? He says there is nothing going on in this family yet he forbade me from going over to his brothers. Well if he had not then I would not even bother going any way.The aftermath of the rape still loomed over me like a dark cloud. I am really not safe in this place but who can I confide in?I do not feel comfortable with Luciano nor any other family members of his. Oh God please help

LUCIANO I could not concentrate on a single thing after Jade told me to leave her alone. A day had completely passed since we had that brief outburst of anger and all I just wanted to do was to grab her towards me at that moment and kiss her so passionately so she could understand that my emotions were intertwined with hers.I could never leave her alone. Not even if she begged for it or a gun was pointed at my head.I will not say I love her because love is a foreign word to me. I do not think I will be able to love anyone. My mother loved my father dearly but it did not fix their broken marraige. Her love was just not enough to do it.But I do care for Jade alot. I cared for her more than I cared for myself. I cared for her the moment I was told that I would be her husband. It was initially going to be Raffaele who would marry her but the man could not just keep his dick within his pants. He had gotten Aurora pregnant out of wedlock then so my father on his deathbed instructed

JADE When we arrived at Luciano's step mother's quarter, it felt like we had been walking for a millennium. I never realised this estate was this huge and also confusing. Every house seemed to look alike. A huge banquet had been arrayed before us and to my surprise, I saw that Luciano step brothers and their wives coupled with some men who looked like they were of Luciano's age and their own wives were in attendance. Probably they were his cousins. He did say his cousins resided here too.Mrs Gabriela welcomed us all as we greeted her in return before taking our seat. I watched as Luciano's brothers, cousins and wives exchanged pleasantries among themselves but Luciano did not move an inch after sitting down.And not much of his cousins came to welcome us either. Just two were bold enough to offer us a kind smile and to talk with Luciano. The disunity among the Greco brothers was alarming. Oh heavens please help me.Soon enough, everyone sat down in their assigned places; each

Nothing mattered to Luciano at that point other than beating the living day light out of his step brother.If possible he wanted to kill him while he was at it.How dare he say such rubbish against his wife! His own wife!There was no way Luciano was keeping silent!"Separate them!" One of their cousins, Petro, yelled the moment they both began their heated combat.Punches, kicks, the awful sound of bones cracking filled the air with blood dripping on the ground from both brothers. Luciano was too angered at the moment. "Restrain Luciano!" Matteo growled, as few of the brothers tried to hold Luciano down and stop him from delivering fatal punches to Raffaele."Fucking let go of me!" Luciano growled with such a blood thirsty rage, knocking them all off and punching some of them in the groins before continuing with his hard blows and punches at Raffaele who was already battered up and bleeding badly.His entire features screamed of pain which oozed all over him. Luciano had blood spl

JADE I walked alongside Luciano and his guards as we slowly trudged to our home.I could not stop sobbing. Staring at Luciano's bloody shirt was traumatizing and disturbing.Because that was also his blood tainted with Raffaele's. He was badly injured. I could feel a gag hauling up to my throat but I had to suppress the urge to throw up and keep on walking.My maids stood close to me, none of them having the guts to walk ahead of us. The multiple stares of the staffs and family members we passed by felt so uncomfortable. I could hear them whispering, it felt like they were throwing derogatory remarks at us. But I did not let that affect me. I held my head high and put up a stoic expression on my face. Once we got into the mansion, I signalled to the maids to walk ahead of us so that they could prepare a warm bath for Luciano in our matrimonial room before quickly calling on another nearby staff."Bring me warm water, a clean towel and a first aid box in my husband's private bed c

LUCIANO I was nervous, more nervous than I had ever been in my life. My heart was beating so loudly against my rib cages. A part of me told me to take the big step and knock on her door while another part of me urged me to leave her doorway and go back to my room because I know she probably hates me now.God! Fuck! Ever since Jade had helped me tend to my injuries, I had not seen her again throughout the entire day. It seems like she just locked herself in her room.Even for dinner, her maids took her food to her room. She has not stepped her feet outside and it is getting me so worried.I have messed up. I know I have. I just did not want Jade to see me and feel pity for me or see me as weak or defenceless because of my injuries. I did not want her to think her husband was weak and he demanded pity. I doubt she would understand me. Even watching her cry yesterday as I was getting whipped filled me with a greater rage than before for Raffaele. I also did not want her to cry in fr

JADEI stared at my figure in the mirror, my eyes settled upon the hikeys and my scarlet red neck. My hands would momentarily graze against them once in a while, still unable to believe the fact on how close I and Luciano were earlier in the morning today.And whenever my mind did run through the moments we shared which could have led up to intimacy, a shade of pink would permeate my cheeks, causing me to giggle to myself.Why was I feeling like a teenage girl in love? I do not love Lucaino. Atleast not yet. I am not even sure of what I feel for him. But I do know I feel something for him.The way his hands held me, his lips trailing around my neck especially when it settled in between my breasts...Fuck!I could feel my thighs beginning to clench. I need to stop thinking of Luciano before I get myself horny. "Signora.." Jane walked into my reverie so suddenly catching me off guard."Hmmm" I nervously buttoned up my shirt and faced her. "Your husband is back signora" she informed m

A Bride For The Don 64. Waves of Uncertainty
JADEA WEEK LATERThe smell of waffles sifted into my nose as I cracked my eyes open to find Luciano packing some food in a flask. A smile formed at the corner of my lips as I looked up at him. “What are you doing?” He looked back at me, “we're going to the beach, let's have a picnic there.”I gasped, excitement bubbling within me. I threw off the blanket covering me and got on my feet as I hugged him. Then, realization struck. “Didn't you say I can't go outside for now because…” I trailed off, but he knew what I was insinuating.It wasn't safe, even with Raffaele still hospitalized, a man like Luciano wasn't short of enemies now was he? Especially since Arturo threatened him a week ago, he's been paranoid ever since. He turned around and grazed my chin with his fingers. “I won't keep you inside forever my love, this isn't the life I want for you, I'll be there to protect you, and they'll be men on standby in the distance okay?” I nodded, my smile faltering. “Now go get ready,” he
A Bride For The Don 63. Echoes of consequence
LUCIANOI laid Jade on the stretcher as the nurses pushed her towards the emergency room. I squeezed her arm gently, “You're going to be alright,” I said, looking down at her. She swallowed, blinking rapidly. “Sir you'll have to wait here for her,” a nurse said, blocking my way as they closed the door to the emergency room.I nodded and stepped back, “she's pregnant, please save her,” I pleaded. The nurse nodded and entered the room, shutting the door behind her. Another stretcher rolled past me, one carrying Raffaele, his almost soulless eyes locked with mine for a fleeting moment before he was whisked into the emergency room. Aurora, her eyes puffy and red let out a cry as she pressed her back against the white walls, sliding down. I clenched my jaw, swallowing the lump that formed in my throat. “Code red! Code red!” A man screamed from inside as the life support machine started beeping. Aurora and I jumped to our feet, plastering our faces against the glass.It was Raffaele, h
A Bride For The Don 62. Shadows confronted
LUCIANOThe car tires rolled against the asphalt as I drove towards the abandoned factory, a scowl etched into my features. I was going to save Jade, no matter the cost. Petro and my uncle had managed to convince me to take a few amen along with me. After all, what good would it be if I went alone and got killed by Raffaele, what would happen to Jade and our baby? Who would protect them?The mission was impromptu, so most of my best men were not available, most where offshore handling other issues. So the available ones would do. Petro would arrive at the location later with some back up, it was now or never. I was going to make Raffaele regret ever crossing me, he would regret putting Jade in harms way. The gravel crunched under my boots as I stepped out of the car, the deserted factory looming ahead. Luca's gaze met mine for a fleeting moment, a silent understanding passing between us before he and the others melted into the shadows. Raffaele wanted this solo - a dance of blood
A Bride For The Don 61. A fight for love
LUCIANO I kicked the dirt beneath my feet as I let out a frustrated sigh, the sun had dipped and it was getting darker by each passing second. All my men had rounded up near the church. “We searched the area to the best of our ability, there was no sign of her anywhere,” Petro said. I stole one final glance at the cluster of houses in the distance. I couldn't help but wonder if there was a chance that she was inside one of these houses, tied up and scared.I looked around and arched an eyebrow, “Where's Jose?”As if the universe could hear me, my phone rang in my pocket, he was the one calling. “Hello, Luciano… You might want to see this,” his voice sounded over the line. I stepped into the abandoned wooden house, cigar sticks were scattered all over the floor and it seemed like some people had been here.Thuds met my ears as Jose descended from the stairs. We made eye contact and he tilted head upwards. “Upstairs, they left some things, it looks like Jade was here.”I followed

LUCIANOMy car screeched to a stop where the tire track vanished. I looked ahead, frustration clogging my reasoning. I couldn't find Jade like this, I had to think of a plan, come up with something..I let out a shaky breath as my anger rose. When I catch the person who took my Jade, I'll make them regret being born. The shrill of my ringing phone permeated my thoughts, I looked over at my phone, a scowl forming on my face. It was Petro calling. “Hello?”“Hello, Luciano, the cops are at the house and they want to speak with you since you're her husband.”“I'll be there in a minute,” I replied. I jammed the gear shift into reverse left this trail, the road went on and on for hours, there's no way I'd find jade like this. My automatic gates slid open as I drove in. A cop car was parked in front of my mansion, sticking out like a sore thumb. This was an anomaly for a mafia gang, but a necessary one. I got down from my car and made my way inside. “Good morning officers,” I greeted, plop

LUCIANO My shoes connected with the concrete floor as I stepped down from my car, banging the door shut behind me. Fatigue sat on my shoulders as I made my way into the mansion, it was still early in the morning, the sun was struggling to fully set. The only flicker of hope I had was that I'd meet Jade at home because I had left before she even returned back from her parenta house. Her presence made everything feel much lighter. I made my way into the house, my blazer folded against my forearm. As soon as I was in the hallway, my head was already swiveling around in search of my wife. One of the maids walked up to me, curtsying a bit before retrieving the blazer from me. “Where is Jade?” I asked.Elizabeth shrugged innocently. “I don't know sir, she hasn't returned since she went to see her parents.”My expression tightened, “What? Elizabeth, are you sure about this? Because I called her yesterday night and she said she was driving…”I facepalm myself, admonishing myself for not cal

JADETwo days later, I decided to visit my parents. Their house felt like a sanctuary, a haven of warmth I craved. As I entered, their smiles welcomed me, and I couldn't help but express how much I had missed them."Mom, Dad, it's been too long," I sighed, genuine joy lighting up my face as I hugged both of them tight. "Baby, how are you?" Mum replied with an even brighter smile. They led me to the living room and my eyes perused through the walls of my home.Everything was still the same. Nothing had changed."I am fine and what about you both?" "Well we are fine as you can see" Dad replied. My eyes tilted towards the stairs, expecting to see Melissa's bubbly profile come rushing downstairs to meet me."Mum, Dad, where is Melissa?" I inquired."Oh she traveled for her internship. She would be back soon enough. In a month's time I think" Mum replied, caressing my hair. A mild frown appeared on my face at her absence, "I miss her so much. I was hoping to see her""Cheer up princess.

Getting married to him was indeed not part of the plans but I am glad I did.

JADE Days drifted by, turning into grain of sands and in the quiet of the mansion, I found myself in a conversation with the doctor.I had been feeling quite unwell for some days and indeed I was worried. The thought that I had eaten something poisonous, something meant to kill me slowly, wouldn't leave my head.I mean we are back in America, the den of our enemies.Luciano being a don has a lot of enemies and I'm no exception to the looming threats around his life.The constant nausea made me tensed and when it's sickly wave wouldn't stop, I just had to meet the family doctor.He ran a test on me yesterday but I couldn't wait to see the result and left quite immediately."You are pregnant Mrs Greco" the doctor told me with a warm smile, handling me the test results.Fuck!
