Aaliyah watched as Tia entered the car, smiling. "Missed me?" Aaliyah lets out a soft laugh.
"In what universe?" Tia pouts as Tony drove off.
"So rude, I'll just take that as a yes, where is Antonio?"
"Home, why?" Her friend's eyebrows lifted in shock.
"He let you come without him? I'm surprised, he knows James likes you."
"He told me that, but I assured him nothing will happen, and if I know Antonio I know that Tony is gonna be watching me like a hawk, isn't that right Tony?" He looked in the rearview mirror, smiling.
"Yes, Mrs Parker."
"I told you to call me, Aaliyah."
"But the boss-"
"Isn't here, and I'm sure he won't mind."
"If you say so Mrs- Aaliyah, sorry habit." She sent him a smile just as the club came in
-Chapter 64: Kill-When Aaliyah entered the house, she could hear the microwave in the kitchen, "I'm home!" Antonio immediately came out of the kitchen, wearing only his boxers."Welcome back. How was it?" He questions approaching her as she took off her heels, sighing."Tiring, I prefer restaurants." He smiles, taking her hand carrying her to the kitchen."Do you want to eat or shower first?" She watched as he took out the food from the microwave."Shower first." He covered the food taking her hand once again, he led her inside their room, going to the bathroom, she smiled seeing an already set bath and a glass of wine."Go relax, call me if you need anything." He unzipped her dress, removing it."Thank you." She said as he unhooked her bra."You don't need to thank me, you deserve this, and yes the wine is for you." She turned facing him."You're amazing." He smiles hands moving to the band of her under
-Chapter 65: Suits-A few weeks had passed, the wedding planning was going great though Aaliyah and Antonio barely helped with anything, Tia would occasionally ask for their help but that was it.Aaliyah and Antonio were currently at home laying in bed as Antonio was on the phone talking to the Micheals and on his computer typing up some documents they requested Aaliyah could tell he was already tired and frustrated, it was 3 in the morning, after all, she had asked if he wanted help but he told her to get some rest which she couldn't do without him but seeing him work was arousing."Yes, is that all? I think I already wrote that give me a minute to read it over." He stifled the yawn that wanted to leave him, as he scrolled up on the computer checking every line. "No I haven't found it, let me just add it right here just in case then later in the day I'll check it over and send it to you, how does that sound? Great talk to you later." He hung up
- Chapter 66: Spaghetti - "¿Qué vestido quieres?" Camila asked as she, Aaliyah, Britany and Tia. (What dress do you want?) "¿Um un vestido blanco?" Aaliyah didn't really care what she wore at her wedding as long as she was wearing clothes. (Um a white dress?) Her mother sighed, "Realmente no hay esperanza para ti. Britany, ¿te gusta este?" Britany walked over to Aaliyah's mother looking and the dress she was showing her. (There really is no hope for you. Britany, do you like this one?) "Es demasiado simple, pero agreguemos esto por si acaso, pero ¿qué tal este?" Britany showed her a dress on another rack. (It's too simple, but let's add this just in case, but how about this one?) "Está bien, Aaliyah, pruébate esto, rápido mami." Aaliyah took the dress going inside the changing room located inside the store. (Okay Aaliyah, try this on quick mami.) "Tia come help me with this." Her best friend walked into the dressing roo
-Chapter 67: 2, 4 or 6-"You're growing a beard." She told Antonio as her fingers trailed his face, feeling the rough surface underneath her fingertips as they stood in the bathroom."Do you want me to shave?" She shrugs turning back to the sink washing her face."If you want to.""We're going out today." He announced moving to the door."Where?""Where ever the car takes us." She raised a brow smiling softly, amused."At least tell me what to wear.""Something casual." She watched as he left the bathroom, she turned to the mirror frowning at her knotted hair, she knew it would be a pain to comb out but with a sigh, she began but the sound of her phone ringing stopped her, she answered it putting it on speaker."Tia, what do you want?" Aaliyah asked as she started unknotting her hair."I deserve a little more respect, I am planning your wedding.""My bad, what do you need sweetheart?"
-Chapter 68: Agency-Aaliyah laughed as Antonio told her a story. "You're lying." He shook his laughing as well."I wish I was, enjoying your meal?" She caught her breath before answering."Yes, it's amazing, who cooked?" She asked even though she had an idea of who."Tyler and I.""I swear I'm going to gain weight if you keep feeding me like this." He smiles staring into her brown eyes."What kind of husband would I be if I didn't treat my wife like a queen." She nods smiling as well."In that case, when am I getting desert?" He made a gesture with his hand making Tia appear out of the shadows. "How do you do that?""Like I said before I should have some secrets to myself." Tia placed the food on the table pouring some more wine in their glasses."Of course you were in on this Tia." She shrugs."I can't let Antonio have all the fun, plus I wasn't doing anything tonight, I'll leave you two lo
- Chapter 69: First Wife - Aaliyah woke up to the smell of breakfast, she opened her eyes seeing a tray of food beside her and Antonio in a suit. "Good morning, gorgeous." He greeted as she yawned running her hands through her curls. "We both know I look like shit." He chuckles moving over to her side of the bed. "Beautiful shit, I have to get going." She leaned up as he leaned in kissing her swiftly. "Why do you have to leave so early?" She asked tiredly. "I have a meeting, you've been slacking off, Tony might just replace you." She smiles rolling her eyes. "You've been spoiling me, I forgot I had a job." He grins kissing her forehead. "Me too, eat everything, I'll see you in about an hour?" She nods watching as he left. With a sigh, Aaliyah turned to the food sitting up ready to fill her empty stomach but her phone rang luckily Antonio had placed it on the tray so she answered putting it on spe
- Chapter 70: Lillian - Sorry for such a late update! - Antonio stared at the road ahead as he drove, his conversation with Samantha playing in his head, over and over again, it was like a sickness that wouldn't go away. -Flashback- "What? She doesn't know how you killed your first wife?" He stayed silent as his mind flashed with images of her death, his first love. "Then again, how was she supposed to know? Your family made sure she was erased from this earth, you know I talked to her parents?" His jaw clenched as she walked closer to him. "Nice people, they were reluctant to talk about her, I'm guessing your father paid them to keep quiet, but I'm very persuasive, so they talked, told me quite a lot." She told him her fingers trailing his cheek, he held her hand removing it from his cheek, making her smile. "Don't be rude now, I can end you with just one call." He kept a straight face which only fueled he
-Chapter 71: No one-Aaliyah looked up from her book casting a glance at Antonio as he drank, him drinking was a normal thing but his shoulders seemed tenser than usual and his mind seemed to be swirling with thoughts as he stared out in space."Antonio." She called out but got no response, called out for him once again. "Antonio." He was still so deep in thought, she wondered what was on his mind ever since she came home he was like this, she was worried she did something to upset him.With a sigh, she moved out of her chair going to him, once she arrived in front of him, he looked up meeting her gaze."Are you alright?" He asked but his mind seemed to be somewhere else."I'm fine, but are you ok? You seem out of it today." He sighs moving her onto his lap."Just thinking about something." He admitted brushing her hair from her face. "Nothing for you to worry about though.""But I am worried, tell me what's wrong."
-Chapter 99: Fruits & Mother In Law-About four hours had passed since Antonio had left, and honestly, I was feeling extremely lonely, but I knew I had to power through until this whole scandal had blown over."How are you feeling?" Tia asked me the second I answered her call, and I unconsciously caressed my stomach."Good besides constantly throwing up my food," I confessed with a bittersweet tone."Is Antonio taking good care of you?" She inquired, and her words only reminded me of his absence and my longing to see him."He's at work, but Maria's here with me." "I'm guessing he'd doing damage control?""Yeah," I confirmed while sitting up on my bed the sound I felt the urge to vomit rising from the depths of my throat."Do you think this can be resolved?" She questioned me as I brought the bucket that was located on my table to my mouth as I moved off the bed."Hopefully, I-" I began, but was interrupted by the rejection of my food that found its way out of my stomach and through
- Chapter 98: Sadness & Grapes - Hearing those words should have brought me nothing but joy, unfortunately, the only I was feeling was fear. It was the same fear I had when I heard Brittany say that the chances of me surviving childbirth were extremely low. "Aaliyah, are you still there?" I heard Tia which pulled me from my thoughts. "Yeah, I have to go Tia. I'll talk to you later." I immediately hung up before she had the chance to respond. "Is everything alright?" Antonio asked the second I placed my phone on the counter. "Sort of." He raised a brow moving toward me. "What do you mean?" "A few days I asked Tia to do a blood test on me..." This didn't seem to make his concern lessen as his brows were now pulled together showing both his worry and confusion. "What were the results? Are you sick?" I shook my head.
- Chapter 97: Call & Tia - Aaliyah’s P.O.V I wasn’t too shocked by his announcement because I saw the pictures of her baby bump earlier, but now that he admitted it I realized he didn’t just lose Lillian, he lost his baby. “How long ago was this?” My father asked, “About 3 years.” Antonio responded softly, looking very tired from all the questions and I wasn’t surprised as I would be too if I was being hounded like this. “Y—” My sister Isabella started but I spoke, cutting her off. “No more questions for tonight.” No one made a move to object. “Alright, we’ll go home.” My mother said as she stood from the chair she sat.
- Chapter 96: Video & Pregnant - Aaliyah's P.O.V I stayed silent as the video played as I was curious about the big secret this person had about Antonio’s family. ‘The Parker family have been known for their multi million businesses, they seem normal at first until you gaze into their background and family members. Raymond Parker’s niece, Ilaria De Luca is the leader of one of the biggest American Italian mafia in the states. He and his son Antonio Parker have been seen doing deals for her with different mafia families, including The Andersons and Petrovs.’ Many pictures were shown of Antonio talking to a tall, muscular man who had dark brown eyes and black hair who stood beside a woman with brunette
- Chapter 95: Date & Truth - Aaliyah’s P.O.V I stared at Samantha waiting for her to speak up and answer my question. Tia seemed wary of her presence after the things I had told her about Samantha, she unconsciously took a step in front of me as if to protect me if anything happened. I doubted Samantha had the guts to hurt me, but I also knew her obsession with Antonio would probably drive her that length. “Answer me, what are you doing here?” I asked once again this time there was much more venom in my voice. “I’m here for charity.” She answered with a creepy smile that had the hairs on my arms standing. “I don’t believe that for a second. You weren’t invited.” Samantha nodded walking towards the sink, resting her purse
- Chapter 94: Permission & Without - Aaliyah's P.O.V “Aaliyah, don’t worry everything will be fine.” Tia reassured me, “Yes, with the little time we’ve known each other, I know you’re a fighter and you’ll get through this.” Marcus added, making me grin expressing my amusement. “You both are acting like I’m already on my deathbed.” Antonio slipped his hand in mine. “You won’t be until you’re 80.” I raised a brow at this. “I don’t think I wanna live that long, it seems tiring.” He smiled, placing a kiss on my forehead. “I can’t wait until you two have children,” Brittany stated, with a big smile that made her husband roll his eyes as he took a sip of his wine. “In other words,
- Chapter 93: Want & Die - “Aaliyah! How are you?” Antonio’s mother asked, greeting me with a side hug, “I’m great, how about you?” “I’m feeling amazing. Raymond, come greet your daughter-in-law and your son.” Her husband, who had been talking to someone, excused himself and made his way to her without protest or any sign of irritation from her order. “Aaliyah, Antonio. Thank you for the invitation.” Britany rolled her eyes, “Why are you always so formal? Try smiling a bit. Antonio, Aaliyah, excuse us.” We nodded watching as Britany and Raymond walked away while he tried to listen to her order and smile, he seemed sick whenever he did it. “I swear your mother is the only one who can speak to uncle Raymond lik
- Chapter 92: Breathe & Fine - Aaliyah's P.O.V I pulled back softly gazing into his eyes before I removed my shirt, he did the same with his. The minute we were both shirtless his eyes took in my body with a mixture of love and desire, “I’m so lucky, you are utter perfection.” He praised making me smile softly. “I love you,” I whispered bringing him into another kiss, this one was slow and steady while our hearts were beating erratically, I held his face in my hands gently as he held my ass moving me impossibly closer to him. I couldn’t help myself as I drowned in the love he provided. My mind was focused entirely on his lips, tongue, moans and groans. Everything he did made
- Chapter 91: Nicely & Blood - Aaliyah's P.O.V I watched as Tia drew my blood with a needle, I had to admit I wanted to throw up. I was a bit squeamish at the sight of blood so I looked the other way until she was finished. That didn't take too long as she spoke. "Ok done." She gently cleaned my arm before placing a bandage against the small wound. "When will I get the results?" She shrugged, slipping off her gloves. "About 2-3 days, it depends. I'll call you as soon as I get them. Don't worry." I sent her a grateful smile as I stood. "Alright, I should go ho-" I told her but I was cut off by the sound of the door opening, our eyes were immediately greeted by Marcus's.
