Chapter 44

Aurora's POV

I decided to take a walk along the lawn later that evening, sneaking out of the house like I did some time ago because I didn't want anyone to see me, especially Matteo.

He was acting like a strict chaperone which I never had, as my uncle was liberal with me but then it was becoming annoying and tiring since I couldn't do as I pleased.

Ilaria was the only one who knew that I went out since she helped me to distract the guard who was at the fence. The same place I'd escaped from to watch Matteo's sparring match. Though she was scared, I managed to convince her and she listened.

I enjoyed the evening breeze which made my hair fly in different directions around my shoulders, some strands covering my face as well. I tucked the straying strands behind my ears and trudged ahead till I got to a spot that had a jaw-dropping sight.

How didn't anyone show me such a place?

There was a small flowing stream with water, but what marveled me was how the turquoise b

    Chapter 45Aurora's POV His question nearly threw me aback but I took a deep breath and counted from one to ten before thinking of a good reply. Of course, there were several things I was hiding from him. The fact that I'd come with a mission to end his father's lineage or the fact that Giselle was my aunt, and I slowly entertained feelings that weren't supposed to be and ended up falling for him which in turn caused me to change my plans. "Matteo, I.." His dark stare stopped me abruptly as I lowered my lashes, pondering on what to say to him. I'd acted out of line and if I wasn't his girlfriend, he might have locked me up and treated me like he'd do to other offenders. "I don't want lies, Aurora. I want the truth." It wasn't possible for me to say the truth, at least not yet. Matteo would hate me for the rest of his life and I wouldn't be able to take it. "I'll tell you the truth, but I'm truly sorry for raising my hands on you. My parents were murdered when I was a chi

    Chapter 46Aurora's POV "You killed him?" I stood up and paced around his room frantically. "How were you even able to do that?" I continued. "Someone helped me but I won't tell you who it was." He replied shrewdly and moved away from the window so that our eyes could meet. He wasn't the uncle I knew anymore. The man that has raised me would never soil his hands or hurt others, he even discouraged me from coming here,yet, he committed murder and didn't have the slightest trace of remorse. "You've changed, Uncle Lorenzo," I whispered and he shrugged, tucking his hands into the pocket of his shorts. "Don't make it a big deal, Aurora. He was almost dead, I just finished him up so that our secrets won't be exposed. Have you thought of what Matteo will do when he discovers who you are and what you came here for?" He hollered and I flinched, reality dawning on me over and over again. "I've thought about it, uncle and soon I'll have to tell him the truth," I blurted. He fixed a

    Chapter 47Aurora's POV "Huh? Make love? I don't think that's a good idea," I replied with a raspy voice but that made him more aggressive and then his eyes turned a darker shade than usual. I'd never seen Matteo like that before and for the first time, I was seeing the merciless side that everyone had whispered about. I might have liked it if he was in a better mood and in control of his temper, but now, it seemed like his demons had reined over his sense of reasoning. "You won't tell me what to do, Mamacita. I want to fvck you and that's exactly what will happen right now." He said brusquely, causing my eyes to turn misty. I wasn't ready for this at all, not with my health and my conflicting emotions. His hand roved around my bare front and the other, tugging at my pussy which clenched in fear and slight anticipation. Though I was scared, my body betrayed me by yearning for more of his aggressive touch, but I wouldn't have sex with him when he barely knew what was going on

    Chapter 48Matteo's POV I watched her move fluidly down the steps as she advanced towards me, her lips slightly parted and her smokey gray eyes shining brighter than I'd ever seen it. It made me feel good that she had accepted my gifts which were specifically meant to appease her and atone for my unnerving and callous actions last night. I expected her eyes to be filled with judgements ready to be unleashed, but it was opposite. They were filled with understanding and emotions I didn't want to put a name to. Words couldn't describe how beautiful she looked in the silky nude one shouldered dress that I'd ordered last night. The slit at the middle of the dress exposed her bare toned and slender thighs that I felt like burying myself in between. My lower member twitched in agreement as I felt a bulge in my briefs, thankfully my undergarment was capable of keeping my physical expression of lust at bay. "How do I look?" She asked shyly, lowering her lashes. I opened my mouth to

    Chapter 49Aurora's POV My heart pounded faster against my chest in anticipation of what was going to happen tonight. I stared at Matteo's warm expression and his eyes were filled with blazing passion, desire, lust and hunger. What thrilled me the most was that all the feelings were channeled towards me. He took off his shirt, his breasts and black nipples allured me. Though I hadn't been intimate with any man, it didn't stop me from doing my research and I got to know that a man could be aroused by merely playing with his nipples. His eyes followed where my attention was fixed on and he smiled after taking off my dress. Cold hit my bare body causing me to shiver slightly, and then he towered over me, bringing his nipples to my mouth. I took it in, sucking it like a candy amd swirling my tongue around the harder part so that he groaned in my ears and his hands reached for my ass. "If you keep doing that to me, I might forget my promise to be gentle." He said in a gruff voi

    Chapter 50Aurora's POV I burst into laughter though nervous because I knew that she wasn't bluffing, yet I didn't want her to feel like she gotten an edge over me. "What other reason do I have for being here other than working? Matteo wanted a chef and I met the requirements so I applied," I replied, feigning ignorance but her cool smile told me that she wasn't buying anything I said. "Don't act so ignorant with me, Aurora. If your uncle hadn't asked for my help in finishing off your shooter, Matteo would have known the truth by now and trust me, he's very close to finding out everything." She said with all sense of seriousness, causing me to have a splitting headache immediately. What the hell was wrong with uncle Lorenzo? Why did he have to go this far? "Awww," She cooed, her expression mocking. "Cat got your tongue?" "What do you want from me, Ginevra?" "Voilà! That's the perfect question to ask. You've always been a smart one." My heart ached because whatever Gine

    Chapter 51Matteo's POV I fixed my holster to my waist and fixed two shotguns on each holder and wore a blazer to cover it. I didn't want to walk around with people seeing guns on me. Even though some of the cops were under my payroll, it would make things even harder for them. Today, I'll make Angelo my consigliere in front of my underbosses, captains and soldiers. He had always rejected the position while trying to fight the darkness that lurked deep inside of him, but I knew that we couldn't fight it except he wasn't a true Moretti. I enjoyed the idea of him working with me. Apart from Francesco and Aurora, he was the only loyal person that I knew would take a bullet for me without thinking twice about it. Our love for each other was deeper and complex than anyone could understand. As a matter of fact, I didn't want anyone to understand us… it was safer to be unpredictable when you are surrounded with people that you can't trust. Angelo waited for me beside one of my cars

If he thought that I was just young and powerless then all of them would see why I was called a Moretti. Angelo whistled lightly at my back and I could tell he was also thinking of the best method to smash his neck, but I wouldn't let him act on his thoughts, seeing that the fight was mine. "This is going to be fun, Matteo. Should I send him to his brother's fate in a split second?" He teased and I shook my head, my eyes fixed on the idiot who was surprised that there was no trace of fear from me. "You don't have to, the fight is mine. But you can take care of his minions, I bet you'd like to perfect your new skills on them." I replied, schooling my expression into a mask of ferocious calmness. Pietro wouldn't like the next thing that would happen to him. "Drop the gun, Pietro, who knows, your death might b

    Chapter 80Aurora's POV It's my wedding! Excitement surged through me as I cast a glance at my beautiful wedding dress. Matteo repeated it severally that it was a one time event so I had to look the part even though we didn't invite so many people. Aunt Giselle who was my bridesmaid kept walking around to make sure that things were in order. She had been doing that for the past two months but she had never really been satisfied with her efforts. It made me realise that she was a perfectionist to the core and Angelo was in it for a long ride. Sofia did well with my face. I had asked for a simple, but subtle make-up and she did just that. I was looking like a bride already and I couldn't wait to put on my dress. "I'm done." She announced after putting the finishing touches on my lips which looked plump and alluring. I rose up from the vanity stool and walked to the wardrobe where the dress was hung, then took off my white dressing robe which left me on just my panties. My eyes l

    Chapter 79Aurora's POV I was staring at the rock that was seated on my engagement finger with Maya at the crook of my arm and a smile crept up to my lips. I didn't really expect Matteo to engage me so fast, but it was still surprising that I'd become a wife soon and not just any wife, the Capo's wife. "It's beautiful, isn't it?" I asked Maya whose eyes shone brightly at me then she flashed a toothless smile like she understood what I asked. The sound of footsteps disrupted my thoughts so I looked up and found Aunt Giselle walking toward me. Today was my first fitting for my wedding dress and Matteo and I wanted it to be perfect. "You know, if you keep staring at that ring like that, I'll have to ask Angelo for mine." She joked, propping her arms against her waist, then she bent over and carried Maya from me. My cheeks felt hot at her words and I didn't need to look at the mirror to know that I was blushing. "I can't help but stare, auntie. Matteo is just a sweet man, isn't he?"

    Chapter 78Matteo's POV I heard a roaring blaze, then the fire alarm blaring loudly in my ears. Ginevra had stabbed me in a bad place but I could leave with it. "Let's go, Aurora." I said and she shook her head, horror glaring from her eyes. "I don't think we are going to make it. The house is on fire already and we can't go through the front door." She shrieked in fear while I brought her close to myself. "Don't be scared, baby. We will." I assured her as I steered her through the living room which was messed up with blood and human flesh towards the emergency exit of the house which was connected to the safe room. The window burst open with shards of glasses splattering all over the floor. Then Francesco chose that point to come inside with a man whose face was badly battered, his head bleeding heavily. "You're still alive? I thought you could use the souvenir." He joked, dumping him to the ground. I rolled my eyes. "We need to get out of here, Maya is in danger of being

    Chapter 77 Aurora's POVI watched Matteo and Ginevra exchange words while working hard to loosen the tight rope tied on my wrists. It was difficult as Ginevra did well in making sure that the knot proved hard to loose. She was mistaken anyway because I had some knowledge from the street which included picking locks and untying knots. Then I stopped as soon as Ginevra blurted her crazy offer. She wanted to have sex with Matteo right in front of me? Immediately my brain began to create images of the both of them having wild sex in front of me, causing me to cough in anger. She averted her gaze from Matteo and smiled at me, her eyes taunting and mischievous. Who could have known that Ginevra was this evil? I'd always sensed something ominous about her, but I didn't know that she had gone beyond being merely crazy to psychotic. "You don't like the idea, right, honey?" She asked, her set of teeth flashing at me. "You are despicable." I spat and felt the rope come loose. My words cau

    Chapter 76 Matteo's POV With my hands folded behind me, I paced to and fro in the control room. "Now we know that Ginevra is alive, but there's another problem." I reckoned. "What could that be?" "We don't know where she might be right now and that is a very big disadvantage to us because she might be going for the people we care about right now." I said, getting paranoid even though I tried to hide it because I was supposed to be the stronger one. Then something occurred to me, "We need to return to the hospital right now and watch over Aurora." Angelo stood up from the chair he'd been sitting on. "We need to catch that woman before she does any more harm to her. If she touches Giselle, I swear that I'll carve her up myself." I nodded and we both walked out of the room hastily. I was a good driver, but when it came to someone who could drive crazily without causing an accident Angelo took the badge. We had to get back to the hospital as soon as possible because I couldn't ge

    Chapter 75Aurora's POV My heart yearned to see my daughter who I hadn't been with since the operation because of my health. But now I was ready to meet her and talk to her even if it was for a short while. My eyes glanced at Giselle who sat on a chair a few meters away from me and was scrolling through her phone with sadness on her face like a cloak. She was still on bad terms with Angelo all because of me and I didn't appreciate that. "Giselle?" I called softly, and she whisked her gaze away from her phone. "Yes, do you need anything?" She with a concerned tone. "I need two things from you." Her brows arched in surprise then she nodded for me to go ahead. "You and Angelo need to make up." I requested. She inclined her head while massaging her thighs at the same time, and I imagined how hard it would be for her. "It's so hard, Aurora." She admitted, "I can understand Matteo's harsh treatment towards you but Angelo didn't have any solid motive for trying to kill you." I sighed

    Chapter 74Matteo's POV I left Aurora's ward a happy man with deep smiles on my face. The nurses kept glancing at me in surprise as they had never seen me in such a happy mood before. Knowing how tough she could be, I didn't expect her to ask me for that kind of kiss. My life which was shattered felt like it had been arranged by the kiss with a speed of light. But when I saw Angelo standing at the bonnet of my car, my anger returned. I wasn't sure that I could forgive him yet for trying to kill the only woman that gave my life a meaning. "What are you doing here? I thought I said that I didn't want to have anything to do with you." I snarled. The only reason why I didn't kill him was because he was my brother and the only family I used to have, but I had a daughter and Aurora who I'd soon make my wife. "I've apologised a thousand times, brother, what else do you want me to do?" He flung his hands in frustration which touched me as I'd never seen him like that for a long time.

    Chapter 73Aurora's POV Shrill voices resounded in my head, making me uncomfortable while I stirred on top of a soft material. As my eyes fluttered open, I realised that it was a bed, a soft one. My eyes scanned the light blue walls that surrounded me, and when I tried to move I felt a restriction. Then I saw the syringe and a tube which was connected to a secondary IV bag. I racked my head to remember what brought me to this place that smelt of antiseptic and air fresheners, then the memories from the park replayed in my mind like a movie. The quick stroll at the park, then the gunshot on my stomach. A gasp escaped my lips as I lowered my eyes to my stomach. I didn't feel anything in it which caused my heart to skip a beat. "My baby! Where's... Where... My baby?" Tears surged out from my eyes as my lips formed uncoordinated words. A familiar scent wafted into my nose with Giselle smiling broadly at me. Her smile put me at ease immediately, but it didn't take away the curiosity

    Chapter 72Matteo's POV Aurora's hands felt warm under mine. I massaged her palm and marveled at the softness of it. My eyes darted to her closed eyes and her alluring lips which were pursed because she wasn't awake to engage in a banter with me or go against my rules. I missed her so much, and it was sad that she waited for me to come to her and I never did. For the third time since we had been together, I watched her life flash in my own eyes and blamed everything on myself. "I'm so sorry, mamacita. I should have believed you all the times you defend yourself. Just hang in there for me, please." I whispered the words softly to her ears, my eyes watering as my lips touched her smooth pale skin. She was yet to be operated on since I was yet to make the decision. I had been looking forward to being a father but I guess it wasn't the time yet. My eyes trailed along the pipe that transported blood to her and the needle on her vein, then her protruded stomach. The door to her ward
