Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Chaotic women in the cassino.
Getting to know Jacopo, my ass.I had nothing to say to the man and everything to say to him all at the same time. How is that even possible?I sat in the passanger seat of the car, my back thrown to the back seat, a book on my lap, the same book I was trying to read before I found out that Jacopo was going to leave the apartment.I was relieved, and slightly surpirsed that Jacopo didn't put up a fight when I asked him if I could tag along, and dang it I was happy I decided to push my limits just a little bit.Jacopo had his eyes focused on the road, and after a while of taking everything in, including the new sense of bravery I mustered out of me, I ended up opening the book again and started reading from the beautiful dedication.The ride went on for about thirty minutes, and I was engrossed in the book that I didn't realize we had arrived at Jacopo's destination."Come on. Let's go in together, and we'll go for a longer drive once I'm done with work." He commented as he took his se
Huling Na-update : 2025-01-22Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. The official meeting.
The second the driver, Ricardo, left the office, I saw Jacopo reach for his phone again.I kept my eyes on him, watching his jaw work and his eyes narrow as he looked through his phone. It didn't take him long to find the number he needed, and he made the call, pressing the phone to his right ear.He tapped his fingers against the surface of the table, impatience evident in the rhythm he made. His eyes suddenly snapped at me, and I quickly looked down at my book, slightly embarrassed for getting caught secretly watching him.I peeked at him after a few seconds, relieved to see that he was no longer looking at me, but unable to look away even though there was a huge chance that he might catch me."Dante!" He called out, his fingers still drumming the same rhythm. "Those women showed up to the casino last night, and then this morning, and caused absolute chaos. Are you planning to handle that issue, or am I going to have to deal with it on my own?" He asked.My curiosity about those wom

Jacopo Nicolo...I was hoping for a quiet day at the apartment, to kick back and relax, and keep an eye on my wife and make sure that she was doing okay. But no. Those women just had to show up to the casino and reck havoc. When Ricardo called to tell me that there were people causing a mess in the casino, I just thought they were the same drunks who couldn't handle a drink or two and a loss. Ricardo loved violence, so him calling me to help him handle a few chaotic people was unlike him. But I had to go.If something happened to the casino while I was away, Dante wouldn't let me live it down.I just didn't expect it would be those women, the same women Dante sent me to, to find out the connection Alex Fimbar had with that address. The women of The Only Girls Motorcycle club.Ricardo was stupid to believe that he could look for them all on his own to teach them a lesson. Those women trusted something behind them to come to the casino day and night to show their displeasure wi

Ezabella Viper...I sat still on the love seat with the closed book on my lap, my legs now down to the floor and my barefoot on the front of my shoes. I was carefully watching the mother and son have a conversation, and they couldn't feel more distant than they already did."What are you doing here?" He asked again, throwing his eyes around the top of his desk and looking at the papers he was working on before he was pulled away."I came to see how you were doing, of course," Attiwood replied. "I haven't seen you in such a long time that I was starting to get worried about you. Why haven't you been answering any of my calls?""Because I thought you knew how to take a hint," Jacopo replied, finally lifting his eyes to hers.Attiwood looked butthurt at the reply Jacopo gave her."But why?" She whined. "Why can't you just give me an hour or two of your day? We can go out to have lunch or dinner, heck even brunch, or we can go to all of your favorite places like we used to." She comme
Huling Na-update : 2025-01-24Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Deep conversation.
Jacopo and I were enveloped by awkward silence on the way to the elevator and then down to the underground parking lot.We slowly made our way to his car, our recent interaction freshly playing in my mind over and over again.He was going to touch me, and I wanted him to. The sudden need had confused me to the point that I was starting to get a headache.Jacopo reached the car before I did and opened the passenger door for me. He waited until I hopped into the car and settled down before he closed the door and walked around the front of the car to make it to the driver's side.The mere sight of him holding my bag was oddly warming. It felt as if we were actually husband and wife, and not a couple of people who were forced into this marriage.He hopped into the car before he reached backward to drop my bag on the back seat.Neither of us said a word to each other as Jacopo fired up the engine and started driving out of the building, taking off into the open road for the long ride he pr
Huling Na-update : 2025-01-25Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. No deal.
Jacopo Nicolo....I never knew my heart had the ability to beat this fast. Ezabella's hand fit in mine perfectly, our fingers locked and intertwined as if they were made to fit each other.It amazed me how the smallest form of touching could be so intimate.I am no stranger to physical touch. Before I had made the mistake of making an alliance with the Williamsons, I had my fair share of physical touch. Heck, I was known for it, even though it was nothing to be proud of.The presence of a woman or closeness never seemed to faze me as much as Ezabella had. I would never have imagined that my bandaged heart would beat so far at the mere action of holding her hand.Did she feel the same way?Was it even possible for her to feel this way towards me?I looked down at our intertwined fingers, wanting nothing more than to take the damn leather glove off so I could feel her on my skin. But I wouldn't dare. Never.It was bad enough that I'd crossed the line that I had drawn between us,

Ezabella Viper...The drive back to the apartment was filled with a comfortable silence. My right hand was tingling the entire time, missing the feel of Jacopo's hand around it.Even after we joined the busy traffic and driving for over an hour, I couldn't get his closeness out of my head. It felt unnaturally intoxicating. Heck, it was addictive.I wanted to reach out for his hand the second he hopped into the car.Was this how it felt like? Wanting to be with someone so much that your mind forces you to think about them every second, even when they are sitting right next to you?I was staring at him for too long that I was afraid he would look at me and think I was weird. So, I used the books as a distraction and read the rest of the drive home. By the time we arrived at the apartment, I was just a few pages away from finishing the book. Jacopo parked the car in his spot before the two of us made our way to the elevator. Jacopo didn't even let me put up an argument with my bag

Jacopo and I sat in silence, devouring the spicy wings he ordered. We didn't realize that we were hungry until the food arrived.We sat on the couch, eating every single wing like it was the first meal we had for the day.My mind was jumping from one thought to the next. I was thinking about what we read about the women of the O.G. motorcycle club. It felt like I was intruding on the women, reading about their personal lives. I felt horrible, especially knowing what each of those women went through.Their leader, Red, had the most horrible life, abused and violated by those who should have protected her. But once she found a way to escape, she never went back, gathering women who had lived a painful past just like her and making them a one big family. She built the motorcycle club from the ground up, making a name for herself in her world and protecting women who came to her for protection. She tore up those who meant her and her girls harm, and she built herself up with her own two h

Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Forgiveness.
Ezabella Viper...I watched as Ella lovingly looked down at her two daughters, her fingers gently brushing their thick hairs off of their faces.I look at her, and I see a loving mother looking at her children. It was a beautiful sight, and I wondered if I could ever be the mother that she is.My hand was pressed against my lower abdomen as I stared at her."Is it hard?" I whispered, trying to keep my voice high enough just for Ella to hear me, and low enough not to disturb the sleeping twins."What is?" Ella asked, tearing her eyes away from daughters to look at me."Being a mother... being a mother in a place like this. Being the wife of a dangerous man working for a dangerous organization. Is it hard?"Ella let out a soft sigh, looking away from me as she thought through her answer. "I wouldn't say it is easy. What I can tell you is that I wake up every single day next to the man I am madly in love with. I have two amazing daughters who I would give my life for. I have a fami
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Safety first.
Jacopo Nicolo...Elijah, Dante, Victor, and I sat in a circle, our focus on Victor as he restarted his explanation on how he was looking into Elizabeth while he stayed here to keep Eza safeEza and Ella were in our bedroom with the twins as Elijah had refused to talk about killing a bunch of people in front of his two daughters, and while both Eza and Ella wanted to stay and listen to our plans, they didn't protest against Elijah's request."As I was saying before, I was rudely interrupted by your unwanted appearance..." Victore said as he pointed at Dante and Elijah at the same time with two of his left fingers. "I've found out that Elizabeth is staying two towns over with a small mafia wannabe, boys. All we have to do is march ourselves there and wipe them off the face of the earth.""We need to be careful." Elijah commented."Of course, we need to be careful. That doesn't mean we should waste any more time than we already had." Victor countered. "It's been two whole months sin
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. The Story of the leader.
A short silence fell in the home office as Dante and Jacopo stared each other down.Jacopo crossed his arms over his chest, refusing to make a single comment and forcing Dante to continue."Like Elijah said, I am sorry for what happened that night, but I, too, had someone I needed to save. And as much as it pains me to sat this, your mother was not my priority that night."My goodness... I get what Dante was saying, but damn it, he didn't have to say it like that."And what? I'm supposed to just believe you and be happy with your decision? I'm supposed to clap my hands for you and just move on?" Jacopo asked, hurt still evident in his voice."That is not what I am saying. What I'm saying is that the night was not easy for any one of us. We were all isolated and were forced to choose to save those we loved the most. Elijah had to choose his family and you had to choose your wife..." "Then what about you?" My father jumped in. "Who were you forced to choose?" He asked.All eyes turned
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Part of the web.
Ezabella Viper...I sat tense in Jacopo's home office, my back to the window, and my face turned towards the unexpected guests sitting in front of my husband.Dante, Elijah, Ella, and their twins. One look at Jacopo and I could tell that he was trying his best to control his anger, to stay come and hear them out before he can kick them out without Dante threatening to burn us all down along with the apartment building."This is very awkward." My father leaned in to whisper to me, shaking his head in disappointment for getting caught up in between the affairs of the people of the web."It sure is." I replied, keeping my voice hushed enough only for my father to hear."Are you sure you want to say with this man, Bella? Because if I were you, I would not handle this well." He added."Well, it's a very good thing that you are not me, then." I replied, glancing at him and seeing the face he was making at me."Are we going to sit here and stare at each other all day... or are you going
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. The unexpected guests.
I was in the middle of preparing breakfast for Eza when the panel lit up with a notification. I pulled my phone out of my pocket to look at what had set it off.Victor was standing in the elevator, aggressively punching the button that would take him to my floor.Goodness.I pushed the pass code in through my phone and watched as he shoved his hands in his pocket and looked up at the camera.I returned my attention back to the breakfast I was preparing for Eza, which did not need the stove to be turned on. Thank goodness.I ignored the noise of the elevator door opening as I started plating the fruits and cookies."Is that why you eat? Or is that what you feed my daughter?" He asked as he stopped in front of the kitchen counter."Mind your own business." I mumbled."My daughter is my business." He replied."Dad?"My eyes are drawn to the hall at the sound of my wife's soft voice."What are you doing here this early?" She asked. "Did we make plans for today?""Good morning to you too,
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Help.
I stood in front of the mirror, pulling a black t-shirt over my head, wincing as I felt the slowly healing gunshot wound on my shoulder.Eza was still asleep in bed when I got up to get ready. The previous night, after Eza and I had spent the day together forgetting the horror we were living, we'd returned home and spent a few more hours in each other's arms, talking about this and that until she fell asleep.After tucking her in bed, I'd returned to the living room to retrieve my phone, charge it, and make a phone call even though I knew it was past midnight.I knew I wouldn't be able to fall asleep if I didn't call Victor right that second and make plans. I just couldn't wait a few more hours until the sun went up.I was sitting at my desk in my home office, one I have not been in since the day I lost my mother, and almost lost my wife for the rest of my life.I expected to call Victor a few times before he picked up, but to my surprise, the phone didn't even ring three times befor
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. A nice day out.
Jacopo Nicolo...If there is one thing going right in my life, it's having Eza next to me.These past eight weeks had been brutal, and no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't get out of my shell as fast as I could to start fixing our marriage. I was the one who messed up, yet Eza was still by my side, cooking my every meals and trying to get me out of my shell every single day.I didn't deserve her kindness. I still don't. But I recognize how blessed I am to have her.She was probably the only reason why I was back on my feet, walking around and not letting myself west away. As of now, she is also the biggest reason why I decided to go through with the visit to see my mother.I was not even close to being ready to fall at her grave, to say the things I wanted to say to her. But I also knew that the longer I took to get to the cemetery, the harder it was going to be for me to start healing, and that will only make it even harder to fix my marriage with Eza.I glanced at her
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. I'm sorry.
"Okay." Jacopo said once more, and I felt enough relief to reach for his hand again and lock our fingers.I turned to face the cemetery and started leading him forward to the place I knew where his mother's resting place was.Jacopo followed silently, his fingers tightening around my hands as he kept his eyes on the ground, refusing to look up.I stopped in front of a new grave."Vanessa Nicolo, a mother and a best friend." Was written on the head stone."Here it is, Jacopo." I commented, glancing to see that he was staring at the words. His hand fell away from mine, and I watched as he crumbled. His knees buckled, forcing him to fall to the ground right in front of his mothers grave."Mom..." He whispered, hus voice barely audible.I took a few steps back to give him some space and to let him be with her on his own, but I didn't move too far away just in case he needed me."I'm sorry." I heard him whisper."I'm sorry I didn't get to you fast enough. I'm sorry I let them do that to y
Forced To Marry A Broken Monster. Flowers.
Jacopo and I took our time to enjoy our breakfast, sitting next to each other at the dining table for the first time in a while. After that, we went straight for our bedroom. I took a quick shower in the bathroom with the hot water, and Jacopo took his in the other bedroom with the bathroom with cold water.I slipped a black dress on, one that made my baby bumb more visible than usual, and when I men Jacopo in the living room, I saw that he was dresses in a full black suit, his hair messy, and his expression looking like ge was already regretting his decision to go visit Vanessa."You told me to drag you by the collar if you end up changing your mind, Jacopo. I plan on doing that." I playfully commented, limping closer to him and offering him my hand.He slid his hand into mind, his fingers firmly wrapped around my own, holding on to me as if I was his one and only life line."Are you ready to go?" I asked.Jacopo shook his head."Not even close." He replied as he took a step closer
