"Alesso got a crush." Matter blurted out making Alesso look at him wide-eyed and the others gawk at him in surprise.They were not expecting that response. Both Angelo and Vincent exchanged glances with each other and then looked at Alesso who was red with embarrassment who was looking at Maria making them laugh out hard. This didn't help the reddening Alesso who was now very shy of being caught. Anna and Georgia snickered under their breath while Michael was fuming at what he said."Who knew my son will find a liking in your daughter Angelo." Vincent said in between his laughs making Michael snap his head to Vincent who's laughter died down immediately after realising what he said.Angelo panicked at the sudden reveal and glanced at Anna whose breath caught in mid-air. There it is, that pregnant silence making the kids nervous especially Matteo because he thought he did something wrong. Michael looked at Anna for confirmation and she avoided her gaze and looked down at her lap. His e
"How could you do this!? How could you be so inhumane?!" Anna cried out, running her hands through her hair."Just like how you spread your fucking legs for Angelo." He found it amusing seeing that there will be a proper punishment.Angelo lost his patients now and pulled out his gun making Nora and Maria scream in fear. They didn't know what actually happened with Angelo and their father. This brought the adults attention to them and realising the children just witnessed this. Seeing this Angelo knocks out Micheal with the back of his gun making him unconscious."We need to think fast before someone puts a bet..." Vincent said under his breath not finding the right words."How much- did he put?" He felt disgusted, not wanting to say those words in front of her family and her.Angelo picked the phone and looked at the screen where the bets were already being placed and had reached ffty million making his stomach drop. Human Trafficking is illegal in the world but is very legal in the
Maria.It took me some time to register what Alesso had said. I was knowing him before when I was eight, I came here to this very house. Nora was alive, Alesso's psychotic brother Zamar was also there and I talked back to him. Fear crept in me when a few of the memory glimpses carme into my mind of that day. I could vaguely remember it was Christmas and I entered the mansion, nothing important but when Alesso filled me in the details, the memories joined everything together."Please say something," Alesso said scooting over so he was beside me leaning against the bedpost, holding my hand as if I would just abandon him if he let go."I don't know what to say," I murmured letting out a sigh. "I have so many questions." I didn't look at him and kept my eyes on our hands."You can ask me anything, I won't hold back Maria. Please just, don't be afraid of me." I could hear he was nervous to know my reaction.He doesn't get it does he?"I am afraid," I took a deep breath as I murmured."Ple
"Maria!" He let out a whine making mechuckle."What? You can't blame me. At leasttake them away from me if you want me to restrain." I groaned. I wantedfood."Ok, I will, let me ask the doctor when you will be able to eat solid food." He chuckled and got up from the bed making me whine at the loss of his warmth."No Alesso, come back to bed." Ireached my hand out for him makinghim snicker under his breath."Well decide women. What shouldI do?" He asked with a grin making me pout at it? I don't know why I was behaving like this. Blame it on the meds. Please do me."Ok ask the doctor and then come back to me." I said sternly making him nod dramatically and leave the room.It's been a day now and I can walkbwithout hissing at my injuries every five seconds.The mansion has doubled its security,making me a bit paranoid about it.I asked Alesso if everything was fine now and he says there is nothing to worry about but at the same time, hebdoubles the cams and security of the house. I
Alesso.I grunted as I felt the pounding headache in my head making me push my head deeper into the pillow to stop the agony.Why the fuck did I have to drink so much?I heard a small groan near my ear and a hand pushing my head away from the warmth.Suddenly the bed dipped and the pillow went awaynfrom me making me flick my eyesopen. Adjusting to the sunlight, I see Maria sprinting towards the bathroom making me furrow my brows. I looked beside me to see I was sleeping on her side of the bed and my head was notresting on the pillows.I guess the pillows were her boobs.My head snapped to the bathroom when I heard Maria vomiting making me get out of the bed in a hurry but only to see white dots in my vision due to the sudden movement.I am going to kill Matteo for allowingme to bring this much.She started walking towards me whileraising her voice a bit. Leave it be, Maria."Ignore it, Maria." My chest was heaving as I tried to steady my breathing"What do you mean ignore it!? I
Maria.I am still trying to absorb what Alesso had said last night. He showed me around the west wing of the mansion this afternoon but my mind was in adifferent place.Did he mean what he said to me or was it just drunk talk?It's only been four months since our marriage but you never know. To be fair, I have feelings for him and would like to tell him that I love him but I am scared to confess, I mean who isn't?Scared to be taking it too fast or being rejected.My mind is swirling with these thoughts as we walked through the corridors.Alesso didn't hold back at this. He is showing me the storage room for their illegal stuff like drugs, guns, money, you know the usual stuff. I was not allowed to enter in and so we werelooking through a glass window."So, all this life sentence worth shithas been here all this time?" I look athim wide-eyed. We can practically be arrested for life by the number of drugs here are."Well not always. They do get transported here and there." He ga
Trigger warning: miscarriageAlesso"I. Am. Not. Suffering." I said through gritted teeth trying not to raise my voice at her.She was not letting the topic go and it was all my fault, I shouldn't have had a slip of tongue. Fuck Alesso, why would you say that, what was I even thinking?"You are hiding something, Alesso I want to help you but this won't work if you won't open up a bit." Fuck, fuck, fuck she needs to stop talking."I don't want to talk about it, Maria," I could feel my heartbeat go rapidly against my chest and my muscles becoming tight. Knowing what can happen I walk away from her near the treadmill section while toning out of the conversion and trying to keep calm breathing."Why, why don't you want to tell me?" She started walking towards me while raising her voice a bit.Leave it be, Maria."Ignore it, Maria." My chest was heaving as I tried to steady my breathing."What do you mean ignore it!? I have been ignoring all the red flags all my life and here you are tel
MariaI had twins?"When Mr Romano brought youin the hospital we pumped you with drugs trying to stop the bleeding but by the looks of it, it seemed as if the fetus was trying to save yours' and the other twin's life by letting go," she explained making me just look at her dumbfoundedly."What?" It was barelya whisper but the doctor nodded to it."It is true. It happens in some cases when such things happen. By the records given by your husband you were in an accident last month?" She asked me making me nod in reply. "Then you went in a coma for almost four weeks," she confirmed as I nodded. "It is weird, the doctor who was treating you that time didn't figure it out that you were already pregnant and due to that you were given medication which was not suitable during pregnancy." She looked at me with a sad smile and then at Alesso."So you are saying that we lost one of our babies because of the doctor?" Alesso said as she gave her a slight nod. Oh, I know that look. rest in peace
