A Monster's Mute Bride. chapter 75
Elijah Smith...I stood in front of the window of my study, staring out in to the magnificent garden with a glass of liquor in my right hand.I was beating myself up for stupidly believing that Ella had anything to do with the listening device in the pendant necklace she gave me.Sure, I might have taken it off of her hands, but Ella took it from Albert. She was a carrier without even knowing it. Heck, she was the one Albert wanted to wear the pendant so he would be able to listen in when she is around me, but she did him a big favour by giving it to me. Of course, she had no idea what she was doing. All she wanted to do was keep her father's last gift for her alive, and I ended up taking my anger out on her.I let out a sigh as I ran my left hand down my face."You drink too much." I heard Cilvia's voice as she walked in to my study.Of course, everytime I tell her not to come here, she does the absolute opposite."How many times do I have to tell you to stop bothering me?" I ask

Ella Smith...I looked at my reflection through the full length mirror. Cilvia wasn't messing around when she said she wanted to dress me up for tonight's dinner party.She went all out to find a beautiful dress and heels that matched my outfit.The dress was black, and it had golden veins stretching from the bottom to the top. It had a long cut from the bottom right up to my right tie. It showed a lot of skin.Both of the shoulders were low, showing off even more skin. The slightly low cut showed a little cleavage.It was an overall beautiful dress. The one thing I really hated about it was that my neck was exposed.I looked at my neck with narrowed eyes. If Cilvia thought she would send me out there with my neck exposed like this, then she is wrong. I will sneak in to Elijah's room and get a scarf before the dinner party starts.Yes, that's a plan.Cilvia came and stood next to me. She had both of her hands behind her back as she looked at my reflection."You don't look happy." S

Dante sat at the head of the table, just like he did when my grandfather hosted a dinner party at the Williamson's mansion. The only difference was that during my grandfather's dinner party, no one was allowed to sit at the other end of the table. Showing that Dante, was the most powerful one amongst the group.But this time, the other end of the seat was occupied by my husband.I looked to the two ends of the long table and realized something.Dante was very powerful, but it looked looked like he respected Elijah enough to sit at the head of the table with him, then it meant Elijah had a power almost closer to Dante.Dante was more like a guest of honor in Elijah's house, and I was glad I didn't see any power struggle between the two men.The rest of the people around the table took which ever spot they would like. I sat on the first chair that was to the right of Elijah, and Cilvia took the seat from across me, not letting anyone sit near her son.For the outside, she might look li

I stepped closer to the couch at the head and stood in front of Elizabeth. I looked down at her with a strick frown on my face.Elizabeth's smile wavered as she looked up at me.I pulled my right pointing finger and middled finger out and stood them on my other hand's palm, making an inverted 'V'.It was to sign the two words I wanted to say to my sister."Get up." I signed.Elizabeth looked at my hand, and I could tell that she was taken back by my forward advance towards her.She lifted her eyes to me, and the smile completely disappeared from her face.I repeated the action again and signed "Get up."The look of surprise quickly disappeared from her eyes before she shot me a wide smile."Oh please, Ella..." She threw her head back and howled out a laugh. She even slapped my hands away to stop me from signing."There is another seat here. Just go sit there. It's no big deal." She commented with a bright smile.The other wives were looking at us with curiosity. They were all expectin

I carefully watched as Jacopo Nicolo stepped further in to my art studio and looked around. His manner was carefree. Unlike the other men I have seen around tonight, he looked less scary. Despite his tall and muscular figure, the expression on his face made him a little bit more approachable.I guess that is why a lot of woman like him from a distance.But then again, the ones' you never expect might be the dangerous ones'."Wow." Jacopo drew out as he looked around the room with amusement."Elizabeth never told me her twin sister is this talented." He commented before he turned his eyes to me.Jacopo looked at the canvas standing tall in front of me and stepped closer.He looked at the woman with narrowed eyes. I watched as Jacopo tapped his right pointing finger against his lower lip."This woman looks oddly familiar." He commented, before he shrugged his shoulders and turned to look at the rest of the paintings.He stared at the ruined canvases first, before he turned his eyes to

I turned around and waited for Elijah to walk up to me. Crossing my arms over my chest, I waited for him to continue.Elijah let out a sigh."Can't we at least go sit down before we have this talk?" He asked as he looked down at me with soft eyes.I could tell that Elijah really wanted to avoid this conversation. But I wanted to get it over with as soon as possible. So I kept my stance firm and continued to stare at him.I watched as he let out another sigh before he nodded his head."Okay... Fine." He mumbled before he ran his fingers through the dark strands of his hair."Do you remember that pendant necklace you gave me?" He asked.I had only given him one pendant necklace, so I had no problem nodding my head."The meeting I went to that night..." He started before he stopped.Elijah looked like he was trying to find the right words to use. I slightly titled my head to the right as continued to stare at him, and patiently waited until he finished looking for the right words."We w

I walked back in to my art studio and stepped towards the window. I looked down at the beautiful garden lit up with pole lights and the smiling moon.I looked towards the circular sitting area.It's been about five minutes since Elijah walked away from me after telling me that he would wait for me in the garden. I looked around and I frowned when I couldn't see him.Did he change his mind? I wondered before I made it to turn around.But before I could fully turn around, I saw a figure moving in the garden, and I quickly returned my eyes to the window.I watched as Elijah slowly walked out of the house and made his way towards the circular sitting area. There was a glass of liquor in his right hand.He sat down at the circular seat facing towards me before he took a sip from his drink. I silently watched as he reached for his blood red tie and loosened it before he pulled it over his head. His fingers made their way to the very first button of his shirt. He released the first two butt

"One of our shipments were stolen by the vipers recently, and the location was known by only a few of us. Which means that there is someone amongst us who is still working with the vipers." Elijah explained further. "We've only fished a single person out so far, and he was our previous distributor." He commented.I dropped my eyes to my notebook."Distributor?" I wrote down before I looked up at Elijah."He distributes the weapons we sell." He commented as he carefully looked at me. "One of our biggest income comes from the weapons we sell. The weapons mostly include big and small guns, combat knifes and other blades, along with grenades.""Who do you sell them to?" I wrote down."Well... We have three divisions. A small percentage goes out to the streets. There are some people in and out of town who don't want a licensed gun, and they will pay a good amount of money to get their hands on a gun. We provide that. About more than half of the weapons are sold to the top payers. Those pe
