~Lianna Black~
Watching Ace sleep with remnants of tears on the side of his eyes is making my heart swell with worry. No matter how strong he poses himself in front of everyone, in front of his men and friends, he’s still a man who had his heart broken by the person he valued.
How Luka and Ace ended up this way is saddening. I knew in my heart that Ace will be able to forgive Luka, he just needs time. Their relationship is stronger than this, it’s more than friendship. They are brothers who fell in love with the same woman, as unworthy as me.
I never wanted this. All I want is to be happy and live my life in peace, but what can I do? I am not worthy of their love.
No matter what Luka does, it’ll always be Ace. It shatters my heart at the same time. Luka became one of the most important people in my life. He was kind and giving since the beginning, one of the few that didn’t see me as a threat but as a friend. One look at him and he
~Ace Romano~“Ace…” Lianna cried, her voice hoarse. She must’ve been crying for quite some time now. Her throat sounded parched and pained. “Ace, help me…” my eyelids were too heavy and so is the rest of my body.I need to look for her. I tried groping on my side, but my hands can’t even move an inch.Heavy weights weighing my muscles down, preventing me from moving the slightest. Wiggling my fingers was painful, but my will to look for Lianna is stronger than this. My chest was clenching painfully. Her voice echoed once more with the loud pounding of my heart. My pulse thrumming, boiling blood running through my veins. “Please save our baby,” she continued to cry. Her plea weakened, losing life and hope.Forc
One month ago…~Ace Romano~“Where do you think you’re going?” Jonah asked inquisitively. Ignoring his question, I continued stuffing my clothes in my duffle bag.It’s three in the morning. I was high… so high I feel like I am flying in the sky. When Arthur Black called me earlier, the aftermath of my sniffling and injecting popped like bubbles poked by needles. That man can scare me away with just his mere murmur of my name.Not that I would let anybody know. He is Lianna’s father, after all. I bet he knows the shitty way I treated her daughter.Two weeks, Lianna was gone for two weeks and my search team couldn’t find her. To my surprise, Arthur Black told me exactly where sh
~Lianna Black~Waking up alone in bed is not how I pictured my first day as Mrs. Ace Romano would be. My frown disappeared when I saw a single red rose on the bedside table. Reaching for the note under it, I pulled the duvet on my naked body and smiled at reading Ace’s neat handwriting.~Mia moglie, (my wife)I had to do some errands for the business. I wish to get back before you wake up, if not, know that I’m eager to get in that bed with you – naked.My heart is yours.A~Excitement ran down my entire body from his sweet promise. Damn. We’re like bunnies in bed.Forcing myself off of bed, I put my hair in a messy bun and threw decent clothes over my body. Looking at my reflection in the vanity mirror, I smiled at seeing life in my usual dull brown eyes.So much has changed.My skin is gleaming. Gone were the dark bags under my eyes. With Ace on my side, I sleep like a snoring baby. The dazzle i
~Lianna Black~Ace planned everything smoothly for this trip. Even my clothes, from my underwear to swimsuit, he did it all in such a short time.Mia Lianna docked on a secluded island in the Caribbean. At least that’s what the captain informed us about our destination for the time being. If I thought the yacht was magnificent, this place where we are supposed to stay was even more. So much more that I don’t have the word for it.Apart from the fact that we are alone on this island, the mansion where we are headed right now on foot made my eyes dilate in excitement. It was almost like a glass house, a three story structure that reflects the endless clear blue water. As we stepped inside, my palms were starting to get slick with sweat. I’m glad that Ace’s hands were occupied with our luggage o
~Lianna Black~The golden mirror installed living rooms ceiling was giving a first class view of the erotic sight featuring Ace and I. Arching my back, I gasped as Ace pushed one of his suave fingers inside me, joining his darting tongue, poking my sensitive cavity in a sweet gesture.Grabbing onto his hair, I was shamelessly rubbing my sex into his awaiting mouth. Ace sucked on my lips, adding another probing finger in the intent of bringing me to a high. Sweat drenched my skin, undoubtedly drenching the rug under me as well.“So good…” he groaned, his fingers curling, touching my g spot that Ace magically found all the time. “So fucking good,” the squelching sound of his plunge and retreat making me moan louder, screaming his name out loud like sex craved woman. “Does it feel g
~Lianna Black~I like the sound of it. Mrs. Romano doesn’t sound so bad. In fact, it sounds… sweet, captivating. Just hearing Ace say it, allowing me to own his surname, made the butterflies in my tummy soar high before they burst into a beautiful electrifying sensation.“I’m going to kick your ass, Mr. Romano,” I teased. Permitting myself to smile, even amid this crazy attack.Our enemies clearly have the upper hand. They have the numbers as the ten speed boats seemed to have impregnated and doubled their counts.“You love this sexy ass, my wife,” Ace teased back, easily taking down another boat, aiming for the engine. I can imagine him smirking while we watch the passengers of that boat try to swim to the beach.
~Lianna Black~Austin chuckled at my response. He had the nerve to sit on the couch, cross his leg over the other like he was watching a play in front of him.“You boyfriend will never leave this island without you,” he mumbled, shaking his head in resolution.“That’s not my problem now, right?” I huffed.Austin shook his head, his tawny eyes challenging me. “Yes. It is my problem and I have the perfect solution for this.” Motioning for his men to come out of hiding, a stout one approached him and handed over a table in his awaiting hands.“Did you grovel back to your father’s feet?” I inquired. Curiosity might just kill the cat.Austin’s hand stopped from scrolling on the screen, his face hardening as he lifted his gaze back at me.“He asked me.” Austin expounded, his tawny eyes burning with fire - angered by my insult. “He begged me to come back.&rdq
~Lianna Black~My chest was painful. Agonizingly hurting. There was an open wound in my chest, like a bottomless pit that was dug by my bare hands.I was staring blankly at the tablet screen. Gray, black, and white dots replaced the video I was watching. The little colors dance from left to right, right to left, over and over. I was silently hoping that the signal was just jammed. Because of the trees on this path we are taking or because of the mountain…The signal is poor.This is just poor signals.Holding onto the locket in my chest, it felt so cold against my skin. It was weighing like tons of bricks, pulling my head down, making me bow to my mistake.I shouldn’t have pushed Ace to save Hannah.It was wrong of me to regret my decision. Nothing will come out of it. Both of them are gone. Both of them are just memories in my life now.Ace is gone.He’s never coming back.My child will never m
