"Aaliyah listen-" She shook her head as she hung up the phone throwing it at him, he dodged it causing the phone to fall on its face breaking. "Aaliyah it's not what you think." She rolled her eyes not caring about the lie that came from his lips.
"It is what I think. I'm not stupid Antonio." She moved towards the closet taking out the empty bag, she took her clothes from the hangers putting them into the bag.
"Liyah, nothing is going on between Samantha and me. I swear on my life." She gave him a look that said 'Do you think I believe you?'
"Is that why her name is saved as David and not Samantha?" He sighs stepping towards but she stopped him. "Don't."
"I know how that may look but Samantha and I are not sleeping together, I love you so much, I would never do that." She nods closing the bag.
"I believed that too. I should have realized all those calls you got in the middle of the night
- Chapter 76: Sweet Melody - It was around one in the morning Aaliyah couldn't sleep a wink, not after everything Antonio told her. She still couldn't believe his first wife took her life, how horrible was their marriage for her to decide that she had enough. How many mistakes did he make that caused her such pain that made it hard for her to live? Would the same happen to her if she stayed and got married to him? Would she go through the same pain? With all these thoughts running through her mind she knew she wasn't going to sleep anytime soon. She sighed removing herself from Antonio's arms carefully as she didn't want to wake him, she gently placed her feet against the cold ground, quietly going to the outdoor pool. She sat at the edge of the pool dipping her feet in the water, feeling the cold liquid against her skin, the moonlight shined against the water, lighting up the dark. She gazed out at the city in f
- Chapter 77: How Many - When Antonio woke up a smile graced his lips feeling Aaliyah in his arms, he didn't know what to feel but happiness as she laid in his arms peacefully looking like an angel, he couldn't wait for her to wake up so he could see those beautiful brown eyes and hear that Goddess like voice, but a part of him felt like once she woke up she would come to her senses, she would see that she made a mistake yesterday, staying. The grip on his heart grew tighter with all the worry thoughts, he was could keep his emotions in check but when it came to her....when it came to his love for her, nothing could make him less in control of himself, he was like a game and she had the controls. He was so deep in thought he had barely notice Aaliyah staring at him watching his frown grow deeper as his thoughts became heavier, she knew exactly what he was thinking about. "Stop thinking so much." He heard her, his eyes met her eyes as s
- Chapter 78: Longed & Bad person - Aaliyah and Tia sat back on the couch, Tia had came when Antonio left, Aaliyah wondered if she made a mistake by kissing him, she wondered if it was too early if it was the right time. They had so much to discuss but of course, instead of discussing it, she tried to forget the situation at hand by using sex. She was now deep in thought as she thought about their relationship, was it, love? Or was it lust? Was she just infatuated with him? "What's got you thinking so much?" Tia asked her friend, Aaliyah sighed. "A lot." She made a gesture for her to explain. "Well, I'm not sure if I love Antonio." Tia looked at her shocked. "What do you mean? You're getting married to him, you've said you loved him, and you smile more when you're with him." Aaliyah nods. "You're right, I do love him, maybe I'm just worried about the wedding." "Maybe, but why did you even say that?"
- Chapter 79: Hotdog - When Antonio entered his room it was 11 PM he wasn't surprised when he saw Aaliyah asleep on the bed, the only light on was from the bathroom, he decided to take a quick shower before going to sleep. He sighed as the water fell on his tense shoulders making them relax, he thought once he went to Paris he could relax get away from the troubles of work, but no matter where he went business seemed to find him, all he wanted to do was be with Aaliyah all day, he just wanted to hear her voice, see her smile, make her laugh and hold her in his arms. After a few minutes he finally exited the bathroom wearing some boxers, he went on the bed going under the covers, he placed a kiss on Aaliyah's cheek, she slowly opened her eyes. "You're back." She grumbled looking up at him, he nods smiling. "I didn't mean to wake up beautiful." He whispered she shook her head. "It's fine, how was the meeting?" She asked him
-Chapter 80: I Want-Aaliyah rested her head against Antonio's shoulder as they sat in the sand, watching the ocean move in the moonlight, she hadn't realized how beautiful the moon was until she sat under its light with him, she noticed dark clouds forming slowly, telling her the storm they had predicted was coming soon. "When are we leaving?" She asked softly."Do you want to leave?" She shook her head, making him smile as he stood slowly pulling her up with him. "Let's walk." He held out his hand for her to hold which she did with no hesitation."Do you know what I thought when I first saw you?" She looked up at his eyes telling him to continue. "I thought about firing you because you came a few seconds late but something told me to let it go and I'm glad I did or else I wouldn't have met such an amazing person." She smiled."You know what I thought about you?" He nods. "I thought you were an asshole, I mean who the hell expects everyon
-Chapter 81: One percent-Aaliyah stood in the bathroom, brushing her hair, while Antonio stood next to her putting on his shirt. They were about to go for breakfast with their friends since they all hadn't been in the same place in a while.He turned to her taking the brush, stroking her hair with the object, "You look stunning." He whispered earning a smile from her."Thank you." She watched as he placed the brush on the bathroom counter, moving her hair to the side he placed a kiss against her neck making her whole mood change. "Right now?" Aaliyah asked as he placed both hands on the counter entrapping her."Do you remember the bottle of tequila I had in our house?" She hummed feeling his hand against her thigh while he caressing her neck with his lips. "I found out it was empty, you wouldn't mind telling me who would do such a thing?" She bit back a moan as he pulled up her skirt moving his hand inside the thong she wore."You
- Chapter 82: Ilaria - A few weeks had passed since their trip to France, even though Aaliyah and Antonio were home, the wedding still had to be pushed back since they both had a lot of work to do, day to night, they barely saw each other unless they were in a meeting or she had to give him some paperwork, both busy with their own work. Aaliyah had taken a few pregnancy tests but all of them came out negative which made her really frustrated but she knew she would get pregnant when the time was right. "-That's the action we'll be taking from now, if there aren't any further questions, you all can go." And everyone did, Antonio stuck behind going to her. "That was excellent." He told her as she packed up her papers. "Thank you, shouldn't you be getting to your meeting with the Hendersons?" He sighs nodding. "I'm sorry we haven't been spending much time together since the trip. I'm sorry our wedding had to be pushed back a bit and I'm sorr
-Chapter 83: Netflix and Chill-Aaliyah sat in the living room of her old penthouse, nothing had really changed, just some of Tia's personal items placed around the house here and there. "I thought you would be swamped with work today," Tiana confessed entering the room with two glasses of red wine, she wore her hair in an afro, her lips were glossed and she was dressed in an orange jumpsuit along with some sneakers since her feet were sore from walking in heels."Fortunately there wasn't much to do." Aaliyah declared allowing the wine to slip between her lips, she closed her eyes savouring its taste. "This is amazing, where did you get this?""I stole it from Marcus's wine cellar." A laugh escaped Aaliyah hearing this. "What? He won't be missing it." This just made her laugh harder."Well, when you're there next time steal one for me." Tia grinned missing their conversations. "Of course, but why aren't you with Antonio right now
-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.
