CHAPTER 6

Ariella

I'm so worried and don't even know what to do. I know Lius has his men closely watching me on campus and everywhere I go from now on. I was in the car thinking about something when the driver took out a black card and a lunch box. "Mrs. Deluca, sir, asked me to give you this," he said, and I just wanted to throw it all away but could not because I was not sure what punishment I would face if I did.

"I am fine; you can take that back. I will manage," I said, faking a smile.

"Madam, please take it; I will lose my life or break a bone if I return this to Mr. Deluca," the driver begged, but how was that going to be my problem? I assured him that nothing would happen and was about to get out of the car when I remembered how blood dripped from Luis' face when he forced me to sign the paperwork, so I quickly returned to take the card and launch box.

"I am sorry I was not thinking straight," I said, apologizing for nearly killing the innocent driver.

“Ariella!" I heard Emm

    CHAPTER 7Ariella Emma seemed to have a lot of questions after class. "I think I need to tell the both of you something," I said as I was about to speak when she interrupted me. “When did this happen?" "It is not what you think; I was forced into this whole thing, and I would not want anything to do with the Mafia. Just help me get out of this mess; I'm—”"Honey, you should not say stuff like that; people might think I am mistreating you, right Klara?" Luis interrupted, handing Klara a box of chocolates.“Ye—Yes,” she stuttered with fear in her tone."Calm down, I am your brother-in-law, so I do not mean any harm to you, my wife, and I have to go home now; if you do not mind, I can have my driver drop you off," Luis said, and Emma hesitated, but Klara gave in. We all went to the car, and the driver went to drop off Klara and Emma before driving us home. Luis removed his arm from my shoulder as soon as the car came to a stop and pulled me out by hand. "What are you doing? Let go." I

    CHAPTER 8Luis I have been in Ariella's room for about 5 minutes and she has not even gotten out of the shower. I don't think she knows what I'm like when angry. How could a girl like her make me wait so long? It had been about ten minutes when I decided to go into the bathroom, but she was not there.What? Could she have escaped or something? I quickly called the cameraman to check, but he said he had last seen her with my sister, so I went to her room and found her alone. "Luis, what is the matter?" Annie inquired, noting my worried expression."It is nothing. Have you seen Ariella anywhere?" I asked."You mean the famous law student?" she said."Umm, I believe so, but she should be in her room," Annie replied, putting her clothes in the closet.“OK I'll go —" "Wait," she interrupted. I knew she was going to ask about me and Ariella, so I told her to wait and walked away. I went to Ariella's room and found the door exactly as I had left it. “Boss, are you OK?" I heard David ask a

    CHAPTER 9Ariella I did not expect Luis to be such a jerk; after all, he is a moron. I needed to fix my hair and went to Kendy for help; I was curious why such a sweet and understanding woman would want to be in this hell of a mansion. What am I even saying? It is a mansion, after all, and who would not want to live in one unless it was me who felt suffocated here? When Luis dragged me out of Kendy's room, I witnessed his brutality.I did not have anything against the Delucas, even though they think they run Atlanta, but now that I have been forced to marry Luis, I believe my hatred has begun. I hope Emma can help me get out of this marriage, but how will I explain to Dad that I was forced? He might have a heart attack or something, which I can not afford to cause because he will think my life is in danger.I was still deep in thought when I heard a knock on my door and asked the person to come in. I did not have to guess who it was because the moment I saw her—Kendy—a smile appeared

    CHAPTER 10Ariella Looks like all the men in this mansion really like getting their way with women. How could a man like Marcus even try to get anywhere close to me after all that bad stuff I've heard of him? Forcing girls into stripping and sometimes taking people's girlfriends away in front of them. How wicked could that be? I was still lost in my thoughts when the door opened and Kendy walked in. “Mrs. Deluca good morning I hope you had a great night would you—"“No, I'm fine. I'll have breakfast at Emma's house. You can get busy with something else, OK," I cut her off, but she gave me a terrified look.“Emma?" she asked, looking surprised."Yes, that is my buddy. We have an assignment together, so I will dine at her apartment, and you can just get busy with anything else," I answered, pulling my hair into a ponytail.“OK but have you asked for permission from Mr. Deluca?" she questioned."I am not his slave or anything; I have rights and won't—I mean, why should I do that—?”I wa

    CHAPTER 11Ariella I just want to smack Luis hard, but by the time my palm touches his cheek, I will be dead. It is unbelievable that he had to bring me to the office to ask why I wanted to go study at Emma's apartment; he clearly did not understand what I was attempting to accomplish. "Are you sure you are just going to study?" he inquired, staring deeply into my eyes."Yes, I am, and I do not believe it is a huge issue since I am suffocating here," I responded, regretting my words because they may put me in serious trouble."I realize you are getting comfortable, but I would encourage you to watch your mouth because I will not be as kind next time," he cautioned, and I simply nodded as I walked out of his office after he dismissed me.I pondered what I had done to marry such a vicious monster. Death is the only thing that comes to mind when I stand near him, and dread occasionally gets the best of me, but I can not afford to appear weak. "Have you said your goodbyes to hubby?" Anni

I exited the vehicle as Luis opened the door and his security carried my bag inside. He was quite agitated about something. He told his sister, "Annie, go to your room," while I pondered what might come next. I stood there watching as he walked closer. "Are you aware that you are late?" he inquired, his tone composed despite the heated expression on his face.“No, but —" “Yes or damn no?" he cut me off.“Look here, Mr. Deluca, I understand that you're a Mafia and have rules, but I…I just want to leave my life and be free from all this misery,” I said not caring what would happen next."What makes you think that what is mine can decide to leave its way?” he asked, staring deep into my eyes."I have rights, and I will not stay here forever," I stated confidently."Ms. Lawyer, you can reserve your confidence for later and go freshen up, OK,? I have business to attend to,"

    CHAPTER 13Ariella Only God knows what would have happened if that beast didn't get distracted. I've made up my mind to stay in this mansion, so I'll just escape when everyone is asleep. I have been here for a while now so I can do it without getting noticed. I packed my books and placed my bag on the rug. Everything in here doesn't belong to me, not even the expensive clothes.Luis bought everything in here and I'm not taking what's not mine as it's unethical. I took a seat on my bed and dialed Emma's number. “Arie…are you OK?” she asked immediately after picking up my call."Yes, I need you to do me a favor," I said, hoping she wouldn't say no.“Come on, it's late, can't I do it tomorrow?" she responded."I want to stay at your apartment and then figure out how to get home tomorrow," I added.She said, "What?! I mean, what happened to you staying at the Deluca's?”"I can not be here much longer. Therefore, I am leaving when everyone goes to sleep," I clarified."OK but is it safe?

    CHAPTER 14Luis The rule is simple: submit or face my wrath, but Ariella seems to be getting more stubborn by the day. I tried to give her some privacy by having her stay in a separate room, but she has begun to plot her escape, so I can not let her stay in there any longer now that Marcus dares to enter her room.I avoided the Golden Room since it had been designed exclusively for me and my wife. Knowing how competent Ariella has grown, I can not keep her in my room since it has a lot of lethal objects, and most of the ladies I bring home come here for pleasure.I needed to prepare the Golden Room, so I spent time with Ariella there. Maybe she wants to know why I'm feared by many. The door opened and someone walked in slowly behind me. Everyone else was barred from entering except Annie and the maids, so I knew she was there."I hope you'll enjoy your new room," I murmured, turning to face Ariella, who appeared to be lost in concentration, her eyes analyzing everything in the room.

It is not the first time I have touched a woman or seen her naked, but something about Ariella is ready to drive me insane if I do not get myself together.I returned to her room and found her on her phone, about to make a call, but stopped when she spotted me. “Aren't you going to respond?" I inquired while Emma repeatedly called her name, but she remained focused on me.“Emma, I'll call you back later, my…My husband has arrived," she added before hanging up the phone.That is hardly something she would say with much enthusiasm. What the hell am I missing?"I am returned to apply lotion to your back," I remarked, but she merely grinned and took a big breath before informing me she had already done it herself.Dammit, I missed that chance. Now I feel like some idiot.“Boss—”"David, please wait for me a

    CHAPTER 31Ariella Emma and I headed to her office. I simply loved spending time there rather than returning to the estate where firearms can be seen from every angle. I am just hoping there are no explosives in there."So, Ariella Johnson, what is your next plan?" Emma inquired, and I did not mind when she addressed me by my father's surname. It is not like I want anything to do with the DeLuca surname."Girl, you should call me that frequently; I truly feel at ease with that last name," I said.“I know right, so answer the question." "I was initially eager to get rid of that beast of a man's surname, but now I want him behind bars for murdering my father. I will have an easier time dealing with Enrico if I first deal with the most vicious Don," I explained."Ariella you are becoming more aggressive by the day; are you sure you are okay?""I am not doing given the things I have been doing lately, but—""Oh, baby, that is all right; I am here," she said, hugging me.I sobbed for a l

    CHAPTER 30Ariella This man is ruthless. I wish I could just stop what I am doing, but my father's grave deserves justice. I was in the study the entire time and did not see Luis when he returned. Is it possible that another entrance leads inside this mansion? I asked myself deep into my crazy thoughts.I resumed studying for the second test and eventually fell asleep due to exhaustion. This was something I would typically do at home, and my father would take me to bed, but this time I awoke in the devil's study. I glanced at the clock and could not believe I was going to be late when I heard someone attempting to break into Luis' study. Who could be trying to get in here so early?Not wanting to move, I just waited for the person to open the door before pressing a biometric button to turn on the lights when my gaze landed on Marcus.“Ariella! What are you doing here?" He inquired, attempting to mask his embarrassment, but I was too skilled for that game."I assumed this was my hus

    CHAPTER 29Luis “Aren't they here yet?" I asked David.“Yes Boss." Ariella has been acting weirdly; I have no idea how she became so daring suddenly. I was still shocked when she served my food and asked me to pour her coffee. I felt like all of my alternatives had been exhausted, and I stood there obediently following her request. I can not believe she could stroll calmly while clutching my arm and entering my study. I'm now trapped in my command. I blame my foolish lawyer and David."Boss, your lawyer has left the nation and will only return next week," David stated as he walked into my office.“This is all your fault. How could you go as far as adding her fingerprints? Do you have any notion how many safes she can open?""Boss, I am sorry, I thought I was following your commands," David said, although this made no sense at all."David, did my grandmother ask you to promise her something?" I asked since I knew him so well."No Boss I…I—" "Damn it, David, how could you be so care

    CHAPTER 28Enrico Monica is such a stubborn woman; I have warned her several times to get out of Ariella's way, but she lets her jealousy get in the way. I have never informed Ariella or anyone else that she is my girlfriend, save for the members of my Mafia. Now she is weeping over whatever Ariella did to her on campus, and I am expected to soothe her."Babe, I am talking to you; are you even listening to what I am saying? Ariella humiliated me today," she reiterated after saying it several times."I heard you, honey; you need to calm down," I said.“What is that supposed to mean? Enrico, do you even know what rumors are saying around campus right now?" she inquired."Monica, please, I need to focus. Will you calm down or just go so I have my peace?”"Oh, it has gotten to this now, huh?" She said, making her way out before I stopped her at the door; she then added, "I am telling you how horrible I feel, and you are asking me to go fine.""Come back here, babe. I'm sorry." “Speak,

    CHAPTER 27Ariella We were now in class, and Professor Hayes was returning our final work after he entered the grades. I could see how other pupils were encouraged, but when he approached me. He merely handed me the paper and went on to Emma; I understood what that meant. The classroom remained hushed, and I realized why no one dared to laugh: they were afraid of having their tongues cut off."It is fine, we will do better next time," Emma whispered, mending my shoulder, but it did not make me feel any better because I despised failing assignments."I am OK," I said, though she knew too well to suspect I was lying.The class had been dismissed, and we were all standing up to go when Professor Hayes beckoned me back. "May I have a word with you, Mrs. Deluca?" He muttered and I, knowing what to anticipate, strolled back to his desk."Yes," I said, Emma beside me, when he begged her to pardon us."I will be outside," she said and walked away."I believe you know why I called you back.

    CHAPTER 26Ariella Dinner was finally over, and everyone was startled that I had served Luis's dish. Kendy and the other maids removed the plates while I made my way upstairs, confidently gripping Luis' arms. He merely stared at me and kept heading up the stairs as I tried not to notice what was going on. When we reached up, I pulled my arm from his and was going to walk to the Golden Room when he took my hand.“Uhmm is everything OK?" I feigned to inquire as if it did not worry me at all, but I was shaking inside."Ariella, whatever you are attempting to accomplish will end in the worst manner imaginable, so you should stop and focus on being healed. You can not just bury your father yesterday and then start being a changed person," he said, which was true, but I knew what I was doing."That is fantastic advice, but I am used to stating the deceased are gone and will soon be forgotten, so you do not need to worry."I could see he was horrified to hear that from someone who had just

I needed hope and bravery if I was going to confront Luis When I a

My guards were all gazing at me, undoubtedly expecting me to go console her since she was my wife in their view. I walked towards her and took a seat next to her. I could see she wanted to walk away, but I kept her hand.For the first time in a long time, I felt sorry for a lady; the last time I did was when I was with my late fiancé, whom I still miss. Ariella attempted to resist, but I informed her that I was not there to be unkind."What else do you want from me?" she asked, pulling her hair behind her face.“Nothing, I —" "Then let me go; is it not enough that you killed my father?” She said and that frustrated me hard since I was not responsible."Believe me when I say I didn't. I will discover the true killer and—"“Is that a joke or something? I know you did it and will not stop until you pay for what you did, OK!" she
