A V E L I N A

The day was warm, and the sun was high in the sky. The birds chirped, and the smell of fresh grass filled the air.

I looked around at the people milling about, and my heart filled with sadness. Coming back to New York has been filled with nothing but sadness, and the pain was almost unbearable.

The last few days had been a blur. After making my decision, I couldn't find a way to break the news to Raphael. I just couldn't. I was ashamed, ashamed that I couldn't keep my legs close.

I had broken down, and I knew that I was just being a coward. I needed to tell him the truth. It was the only way.

He had the right to know, and I couldn't hide it from him anymore.

Giovanni's visit to my house earlier today was sudden and I couldn't get our conversations out of my head. The threats he'd thrown at me.

"So, the rumors aren't really rumors after all." We're first thing he had said as soon as I opened the door.

Then he proceeded to ogle at me, my body curling with disgust. He looke

    A V E L I N A He carried me into the bedroom and laid me on the bed, his hand gently caressing my face. "Are you okay?" He asked, his eyes filled with concern. He was worried about me, and the fact touched my heart. "No," I replied honestly, my voice breaking. "I was so scared. I didn't think that would happen to me. I was so scared he was going to hurt me. I've never been that scared in my entire life." "I'm sorry," He said. "I'm so sorry, Avelina. This shouldn't have happened. I'm sorry I couldn't keep you safe. I should have kept you safe. If I had known, I wouldn't have left you alone. I'm so sorry." "It's not your fault," I replied. "You didn't know. You didn't know what was going to happen. Please don't blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's mine. It's my fault. If I had stayed at home and not went anywhere, maybe this wouldn't have happened." "It's not your fault. Don't say that." "But it is." "It's not."

    A V E L I N AMy mind was a jumbled mess. I was laying, completely naked, wrapped in the arms of my ex husband as he peacefully slept. I couldn't fathom the amount of betrayal that had just occurred.I had allowed Lorenzo to make love to me. I had begged him to make love to me and I had let him.What was I thinking?What the hell was I thinking?I should have never let him touch me.But I was weak and broken, and I had needed him. I had needed him to make me feel better, to take away the pain and the hurt. And now, I was living in regrets.Even in his sleep, his grip on me was tight. Like he was scared to let me go. Lorenzo? Scared? Both words should never be together. He didn't care about anyone but himself.My mind went back to when he confessed his "feelings" to me after sex, while yet still accusing me of cheating on him in the same statement. I didn't know what to say, how to react or even if I should tell him I loved him back.What would have happened if I told him the truth?Th

He was pounding into me, his dick filling me completely.His pace was relentless and a bite of pain and pleasure was mixed with each thrust. "Fuck, Avelina," He groaned, his breathing ragged."I'm going to come. Oh fuck. Come on my dick, baby.""I'm close," I cried out, the pleasure overwhelming. He didn't stop, continue fucking me rough and hard. All I could see was stars. My screams could be heard from a thousand miles, my hair was wet from sweat sticking to my face, and I was a hot and sweating mess."I can't," I cried. "It's too much. Oh God, Lorenzo. Please."He didn't stop, his pace was brutal. I grabbed his back, unintentionally digging my nails into his skin.

He grabbed my waist and pulled me to him, he nuzzled my neck and I closed my eyes, a small moan leaving my lips."Please don't," I whispered, my body betraying my mind."Stay," He said, kissing my shoulder. "I'll drop you off later if you want.""We can't keep doing this. I have a dignity to protect, Lorenzo. You think lowly of me, yet you keep fucking me. You don't believe a word that comes out of my mouth. Why are you still torturing me like this?""What do you mean?""The only thing I'm asking of you is to believe me. To not see me as the woman who cheated on you. Instead, you make me feel like I'm nothing but a whore, someone you use and throw away whenever you want.""You're not a whore," He said.

I've been having a hard time dealing with all that's happening, and it's taking a toll on my mental health. The kids were in school and I was having at time alone today. I haven't shown my face at work for two weeks and I've received calls from several of my staffs, but I didn't have the heart to pick their calls.I didn't want to face them or anybody. I've basically been ghosting for the past three weeks, and even my best friend has not been able to reach me. I've been ignoring her calls. I had told Raphael I needed a little space and he had thankfully respected my decision. How was I supposed to face him after all I'd done? I knew he noticed I wasn't wearing his ring anymore, but was waiting for the right time to ask me. My mother had noticed that something was wrong when I returned, it was unexpected. I still had a couple more days and it only increased her suspicions, but I gave her no cl

    A V E L I N A I was standing in front of Raphael's house, ready to break the news. My palms were sweaty and I could feel the anxiety in my stomach. This wasn't going to be easy, and I didn't know how to go about it. But, it had to be done. I hasn't told him that I was going to be coming, and he was probably busy. I didn't want to bother him, but I just wanted this over with. I didn't bother ringing the doorbell and walked into the house. The living room was empty, but I could see light illuminating from his office, which could only mean he was in there. Raphael was well to do for himself, working under a large firm. His pay was good, but he had always complained it wasn't enough and never wanted to work under someone, but he didn't have the funds to start up his own firm. I, however, offered to fund his dreams and he was excited and quick to accept. We had this conversation two months ago, and ever since then, he kept reminding me of my promise and how I should make sure that it'

    A V E L I N A"She knows the truth, Raphael. If she goes, no one will have the slightest clue. She can't tell Avelina anything. You know how much money is at stake here. It's life changing. Why would you want to risk that for a one night stand whore? She's nothing compared to the millions you're going to have in your pocket.""I can't believe you just said that. I'm not a killer. There's a possibility of Avelina finding out, and it would be disastrous. But Sasha is pregnant. For me. I have to pay child support.""Not if the child doesn't exist. It's your word against hers. You're going to lose money paying her, and she won't do anything but ruin the plans. Get rid of her. If it's a girl, no problem. If it's a boy, he can disappear. You can't let him live.""That's murder, man. I'm not doing it." He shook his head."Think about it, Raphael. You've gotten this far, you're not stopping now. This is your chance, you're not backing out. If Avelina doesn't come through with the money, then

And I never believed her. For the past five years, I had never thought of the possibility of all these been a lie. Giovanni never liked Avelina, what were the possibilities that he would fuck her? Or that she would let him? Avelina was right. I never trusted her. I was quick to believe the words from my idiotic brother who would do anything to tarnish her image just to get back at me, over her words. Thinking back to it, I had been stupid. And, if only I could turn the hands of time, and handled it better than I did. The truth sat on my desk, glaring at my face and screaming how stupid and dumb I was. I had hired a investigator that could do a thorough research and investigate more on the photos that Giovanni had claimed were s picture of himself and Avelina fucking. "It's all photoshopp

The first person my eyes met were Natalia's and she didn't look a tad bit remorseful.Her clothes were tattered and dirty and she looked thinner but held so much rage and enmity in her eyes. Seeing her rose lots of pent up anger in me."Order. Order. Will the jury please rise." The judge said and they all stood up."Today is the final court hearing. Has the jury come to a conclusion?""Yes, we have.""Read it out."The lady nodded her head and started to speak. "In the case of the people versus Natalia Serrano, we find her guilty. Evidences and footages have proven that she had conspired with a man to kill her boyfriend, and frame Lorenzo Salvatore for the crime."Natalia's face dropped, and the rage in her eyes burned harder than ever. The glare she gave me was something that could have killed me instantly if it had the ability."Is this true, Miss. Serrano?""No. They're lying. I didn't do anything.

Lorenzo was arrested. Anthonio is dead.I forced my eyes open again and this time, they didn't hurt. I turned and saw Lorenzo asleep in a chair, and the twins were on the bed, sleeping.I tried to call out his name, but I couldn't, I felt weak, my throat was dry, and I could barely move.Lorenzo started moving around and slowly woke up. He looked around the room and then his eyes met mine."Avelina, thank God you're awake." He said, rushing to my side and placing a kiss on my lips. "Oh my God, thank God. I thought I lost you, baby.

The evidence was too strong and the Mancini's were pushing it.It was finally the day of the trial, and I had been locked up for two days, and the worst thing was, I didn't get to hear from Avelina, I didn't know how she was doing. I was desperate and wanted to hear her voice, but no one was willing to listen to me. My lawyer finally arrived and we were to go to the court, and that's where I would get a verdict.I looked at Dorian and he gave me a reassuring nod. I decided to trust him.
