Becoming The Mafia's Bride CHAPTER 83
Fiona POVMy hair was matted with sweat and moisture as I sat down beside the bed, holding a towel in my hand and wiping his forehead. My heart shattered into a million pieces as a strangled sob rose in my throat, I couldn't choke it down. This situation required my strength and patience. Though I have very little in me right now, I'll do anything for Houston. "Beep beep beep." The machine besides the bed, what was it called? I actually could not remember, but it continued to beep annoyingly. I swiped a lone tear out of my face and sniffed. He would pull through... He would pull through...Mom took my hand in hers patting it softly. I could see the streak of tears on her face as she continued to weep soundlessly. Dad wasn't taking it any better, his face was contorted with pain and his chest rose and fell heavily.The Atmosphere in the room was depressed to say the least.A nurse sauntered in with some array of equipment. She nodded to me in greeting and start to do her thing.

Aiden's POVI excused the policemen outside and went to the corridor with them. We needed to get to the root of the matter. "Please, I do not want the police to get involved in this investigation." I told him without mincing words. There was no time for that."Why? This case is very dangerous." The stern looking policeman asked.I sighed deeply not wanting to prolong any matters."I am sure you aren't deaf sir. Houston will wake up. There's no need for the police to get involved." I said sternly and walked back into the room, fixing my gaze on Fiona. Her eyes was wet and puffy from crying all through. Her nose was red and her silky hair was in a matted knot. She truly was distraught from Houston's situation. I felt miserable and honestly, I had almost forgotten how much she adored him as her brother.As our eyes met firmly, she walked towards him, staring at me with full curiousity."What was that about??" She asked, widening her eyes.I could see the same question boarding on the

Candice POVFiona's parents were out of the room, the police were also gone and I was sure that bitch had taken Aiden somewhere else all because of my presence.Staring at unconscious Houston, I strained my jaw, rubbing my face with my hands in frustration.After our meeting at the cafe that day, Houston had texted me that he was going to see Aiden and that we should meet again at a club.I reluctantly agreed to meet with him.FLASHBACKMy heart thudded loudly in my chest, constricting and expanding at a painful pace. Wringing my clammy fingers, I dare a glance at my wristwatch.This was half past twelve. He was supposed to be here by twelveHe's probably not going to come...a tiny voice whispered inside my head. I shook my head, as if wanting the voice to go away.But of course, it doesn't always listen to my command. It is always there....Planting the seed of doubt inside my head, questioning my decision and laughing mockingly at me. My eyes strayed around the bar, taking in the sc

Candice POVEND OF FLASHBACKGosh! I hated hospitals. The infuriating smell of chlorine that usually pressed on into the atmosphere was appalling. But that was the least of my reasons of hating the place. My heart was planning to burst out of the confines of my ribcage at the sight that laid in front of me. I could look away from Houston, his skin was deathly pale. The healthy pallor of his skin was long gone, replaced by a ashy tone to it. A sob rose in my throat and I caught myself before spilling. I couldn't still my heart at the sight no matter how I tried to.His plan was crazy and his current condition proved it.What if he actually died? Then everything would have been ruined.I didn't expect that I would be so affected by his condition. He wasn't supposed to affect me this much, he was supposed to affect Fiona but that bitch was with Aiden who would be probably trying to cheer her up.I was enraged, jealous and remembered the reactions and feelings I received when I walked

Aidan's POVThe car hummed softly and stopped. I hurried out of the car to help Fiona off.She stared at me solemnly and swatted my arms off slowly. She pursed her lips before heaving a sigh and finally yielded her hands to me."I'm tired." she said in an annoyed voice but her eyes spoke of amusement. "Let's go to the bedroom?" I raised my brows at her. "Hmmm mmm." She murmured under her breath but said nothing. I led her into the house and upstairs to the bedroom where she flung herself on the bed even before the light was switched was on. "Are you that tired?" I asked as I pressed the light switch."Crying sucks energy. I need to go to the bathroom. I'm filled up to my throat." She groaned."Yeah, we have Houston to thank for that." My voice was muffled and I spoke without turning back as I was already heading into the closet. As I unbuttoned my cuff, my mind roamed to the event of the day. Houston's accident remained quite a mystery. A mystery was itching well at me. I need t

Aidan povThe movie was going well, Fiona looked like she was enjoying herself but I wasn't. Candice's words were utterly bothersome and making me worried.Something was definitely off.I wasn't scared anymore for Houston's accident because regardless of his current situation, summing everything off just made it more suspicious... More unexpected... Odd.Honestly, I didn't even know how to explain how I felt about all this.Checking my wristwatch, I grimaced seeing that it was already 30 minutes to midnight. I had to leave to Candice's house fast.Standing up, I took a breath and looked Fiona who followed my movement with her wide eyes."What's going on?" She asked curiously. "You seemed lost and it's obvious that you created all this to distract me.""Its that obvious huh?" I asked forcing a smile."Aiden?" She asked looking worried, staring at me as if she could see me clearly."I have to go out for something urgent, I'll be back soon, do not worry."I noticed a small frown on her f

Fiona's POVThe confusion was pushed to the back of my mind as I continued to watch the movie. It was so unlike of Aidan to be abrupt and vague. But I did not want to doubt him, because doubting him will only lead to question that'll probably do us no good. I glanced at the table, reaching for the punch. Gosh, the hot buns has been wobbled down by someone. Someone that was not me. Hehe.I fluffed the pillows and placed it behind me, resting my back on it. The sound of my phone ringing filled the whole room and startled me out of my wits. I picked it up beside me and glanced at the screen to see who the caller was. My eyes bulged out to an impossible the degree and my jaw fell slack. My heart took on a race and begin to pound painfully in my chest. Houston?? Was that really him? For a minute I thought I was actually dreaming."Hello?" I said in a small voice. I don't want to hope, I don't want to hope."Fiona? How are you?" His voice boomed from the phone. Oh my god! Oh my god!

He screamed, going to every corner of the house and all the rooms in search for her but there was no sign of her.He had seen that her car was no outside but he was still not convince. He had a little hope even though he knew all hope was gone at the moment for him."Fiona!" His life was crumbling and he rushed back out, hopped in his car and began to call every police, military personnel that he knew to inform them that his wife was missing.With a heavy mind and racing heart, he rushed to the hospital and stormed into Houston's ward even when the nurses tried to stop him.The bed was empty.He gritted his teeth, screaming out loud in anger but suddenly, his phone rang and he moved his gaze to his phone to see that it was Fiona's phone.

AUTHORDo you really think so little of me Fiona?" Aiden asked Fiona. He knows that she was saying all of this because of the pregnancy hormones and that she doesn't really mean it but he was hurt that she'd ever consider that he'd leave because she lost her shape after giving birth to her child. "I don't think that way of you at all. I know that you love me but people change right? What if I go out of shape and you decide that I am no longer what you want?! I think that I am going to lose my mind for real if you leave me....I can't handle that for the life of me" she told AidenAiden took her hand in his "I am just going to tell you this once Fiona so listen.

FIONA'S POV"You know that I am not doing anything and that they are actually right. I don't want that at all. I want to do something to earn my keep. I know that I am pregnant but that doesn't mean that I am handicapped. I can still do something " I said. I don't like the way Aiden keeps treating me like I can't do anything for myself. I think that I am going to lose my mind if he keeps treating me like this for the duration of my pregnancy. I'd definitely lose my mind if this continues itself. "Who said that you're not doing anything by being here with me? Seeing your face everyday motivates me to work harder. And once I am motivated to work harder, it means that I can earn a lot of money for the company and those people talking will get paid on time. So you see, you being here is actually helping everyone. Do you see how much you're helping me out now?" Aiden asked me. I could not help but burst into laugher when I heard this. "You're impossible Aiden! I can't believe that you

AIDEN'S POVI entered my office after I was done with the meeting. I sighed. All of the people who are working for me are really stressing me out. They are supposed to do thier jobs but there's nothing that anyone of them can do right. They keep making mistakes on top of mistakes. They are all starting to get on my nerves. .I took off my tie as soon as I entered my office and lossened the first buttons of my shirt. I saw Fiona sleeping on the couch. I frowned. Isn't she uncomfortable?!I have told her many times that she doesn't need to come here for me and that she can just go back home and rest once the pregnancy gets too much for her and she wants to sleep. Why doesn't she ever listen at all ? "What are you doing here Fiona?" I asked as I tried to position her on the bed without waking her up as quietly as I could.I took a blanket and tried to cover her with it but she woke up anyway. "What are you doing here Fiona? Didn't I tell you that you can go back and sleep whenever y

Author's POVFew weeks later. Fiona groaned loudly as she entered into the fitting room for yet another time. This was the fifth....sixth? Honestly she's lost count of how many it was. Her mom and Eric's wife Esther were there with her. She went out to show her critiques who sat regally on the chair sipping lemonade. She eyed them dubiously and mouth "really??" With an arched eyebrow. They were only sitting there, enjoying a glass of lemonade and scrolling through the magazine while Fiona was made to endure the prickling and prodding of the stylist. "What do you think??" She asked without much enthusiasm. She felt beautiful but she wanted to hear from them. She gasped, stood up and walked towards her with beaming smiles on their faces."Oh my! You look adoring." Esther squealed into her hand and giggled excitedly. Fiona rolled my eyes as her mum and Esther passed a secret look at themselves. It was secretive if they were passing those looks in front of her. She almost facepalm

Author's POV"I suggest you avoid doing anything that could bring back those painful memories." He said to him quietly.Aidan nodded diligently, his eyes filled with a brimming happiness that seemed highly contagious. "She has been greatly traumatized and her brain is still having problem accepting the reality. Care and rest is all she needs right now. And do ensure that she eats a lot of food and makes she doesn't get upset" Rodriguez added calmly. Aidan had rushed out to call the doctor when the initial shock had wear off him. And thank goodness he did. "I congratulate you once again Mr Aiden." He bowed stiffly, before moving out. Since the doctor didn't want Fiona to listen in on his diagnostic, they were conversing in the corridor.The thought of Fiona going through the hardship of accepting the harsh reality was already hitting Aiden.... hard. A trickle pain of hers turned to an ocean of his own. If he could take her pain as his own, he would. Without thinking twice!He str
