Sasha’s POV“What am I going to be putting on tonight? This is all I’ve got on me,” I said as I was about to walk away.Valentino stopped and turned back to me, saying, “That reminds me; once you get to your room, call me, and the stylist will come and take your measurements and get you something suited for a woman like you.”I chuckled and said my thanks to him as I wondered where my room was. It was a massive mansion, up to seven times the size of his other house. While I reveled in the beauty of the structure before me, Valentino spoke again.“Your room is on the first floor. Once you’re in the building the chief maid will take you there. She’ll know you once she sees you.”“Okay, thank you, sweetie,” I said as I was about to step in.Valentino being the man he was stopped me once again. Could we just stop this start and stop this start and talk movement we are having, it wasn’t as though I was not enjoying it. It simply was kind of a childish delight of some sort.“Where’s my good
Sasha’s POVI stepped into the room, my eyes welling up in tears as I saw what was before me. Valentino had sent me another set of gifts. As I got closer to the bed, I saw a card placed on the gift box. I took the card with my left hand and flipped it open to read the words that were written inside the card and they blew me away.Thank you for coming into my life. Before you came into my life, I never felt this. I never told you this but you mean the world to me. I know I’ve not spoken the best of words to you but I want you to know that I love you. I took all the time in the world to put this together, so this letter can put a smile on your face and comfort you whenever I am away from you or, at times, when I am not there for you. I love your smile; I love the look in your eyes, how they sparkle, and the way you are concerned about me. I just want to let you know how beautiful your heart is. Never stop being you and never stop looking out for me. One last thing, don’t let my words
Sasha’s POV~ It's showtime and I'm ready for the night. I got dressed and admired the beauty that stood before me. My attire was a ten out of ten and I loved how my shape was well positioned and fited within my attire. That stylist deserves his pay in gold coins. I should tell Valentino to up his pay. I was happy to be me today. I was spectacular, damn. I got ready and stepped out of my room, accompanied by eight maids. Four to my right and another four on my left. Today was a day to make a statement and a heavy one at that. It wasn’t a marital union but Valentino had given me the ground to own the night however I saw fit and I surely wasn't letting him down. As we got to the mansion hall, everything looked different from when I arrived. The whole place was well decorated and was giving. Men and women were walking side by side and cheering and exchanging pleasantries. The paparazzi wasn't left out. Various media chains we on ground to cover the event, To the edge of the hall t
Sasha’s POV~ “Wrong place, wrong timing,” I hissed as I walked out trying to avoid any confrontation. Today was not going to be another day to get into a brawl on National television. I could tell Belinda loved to be in the public eye, even for all the wrong reasons as she was loud and careless in her carriage. I wondered how Valentino had been entangled with such a thing. Well, her life, her headache. I would not get into any argument with her even if she tried to provoke me. I was determined to enjoy the night and see what reveal awaited me. Walking away and dancing to the sounds of music, I asked the guards to follow me. Well, I thought she would respect the security presence with me but what do they say about pigs again? They wouldn't mind staining your white attire. As much as I wasn't in white attire, I didn't want to dye this beautiful outfit. I kept my distance and did my best to avoid her, as I slid into a group of dancers and began dancing with them a
Sasha’s POV~“Mr. Rex, why do your competitors go missing?”A man from the crowd yelled and Valentino acted like he had an important call and picked up his phone as he walked off the podium.I watched as some of the guards came over to the man who had made the remark about Valentino's competitors going missing and led him out of the hall.I took a glance at him and noticed he was the same journalist who had taken a beating earlier on. I tried to reason out why some people could choose to undertake a profession that puts them at the forefront of risk. I watched as he tried to speak out but was dazed and taken out unconscious to only God knows where.As much as I was not in complete agreement as to how Valentino ran his business, I wasn't going to mince my words in a room I wasn't invited into.He couldn't even read the mood in the room before playing superhero, now he wouldn't even be remembered as a hero in the least way.The master of the ceremony took the stage and began telling ta
Valentino's POVI heard the sounds as she pulled the trigger, one, two, three, and four bullets were shot each following the other.“She finally did, she's matured into a fine woman, the time that I like,” I said to myself as I relished in the pleasure of having Sasha send her father's murderer to the other side of life. Sasha's dad had been one of my most trusted soldiers, he had served me incredulously until one day.He had met a lady who wasn't Sasha's mum and her lifestyle drove him on a downward spiral. It was when he began revolving his life around this strange woman he had gotten into the habit of gambling and getting hooked on drugs. I never knew at first, I thought it was just one of those other nights that my men would ride the nights into the clouds of glory, taking turns raising their consciousness in their kinds of fun.I had placed him in charge of a mission to help me get confidential information from my competition and he was making headway at first.With the Intel h
Sasha's POVMy heart was in my mouth as I was seated face to face with death.This was the height of being Mrs. Valentino Rex. I was now used as a specimen in a dicey game and a man's life was the settling score.“I'm going to jail,” I screamed at Valentino as he stood there impassively.Valentino didn't seem to act like anything had just happened. He was like a doctor who had seen too many deaths in the hospital ward and wasn't moved any longer by deaths. “Say something. Don't just stand there looking at me this way,” I said, screaming at his face.Valentino responded to me in the most awkward manner I could imagine. He simply clapped his hands saying, “Bravo, nice shot you got there. Just a little more polishing and you'll be fine.”I was shocked as to how he responded to me. This man was a psycho. I married a man and now I will go to jail for my wrong decisions.“This wouldn't go down well. This won't end fine,” I muttered to myself. A little audible but not loud enough for someo
Xena's POV"That young man has eaten more than he can chew. It's time we taught him a lesson."I stood with my hands crossed together as I tapped my leg on the ground, facing my husband and making my remarks to him.I had told him about the words of Valentino Rex, who had made a clear threat at the destruction of the Britannia family, also known by their triad name "Satoshi Family."My husband, Chris, blinked his eyes as he pulled off his glasses and looked at me cautiously, as though taking off his glasses would make him hear me.I noticed the change in his gaze and how he looked pissed.While I remained quiet, the adopted son of the family, Dave, stood up and pointed at me as he said, "Why are you all bothered about that wrench, Valentino? Was it not Belinda who exposed our family to him by stooping so low to date that thing? Besides, she's the one who caused the ruckus last night. Don't—"As Dave wanted to make his next statement, I heard a loud sound and turned to see what was hap
