ARIA’S POV
“And that is it”, he says looking into my eyes.
I shake my head, “I don’t believe a single crap you just said”, I say.
So this is Luca and I having a conversation I thought was sincere some minutes ago but now I'm not so sure, its past 2 in the morning and Luca was finally able to entangle himself from Emb, he took a quick shower and came over to my room by 2 to tell me he had been planning all this from little.
A stupid story of how he craves power and how he would let nothing stop him, apparently that was why he left me or rather made me leave him.
I sincerely didn’t believe this story, I know there is something driving him but all this story about him being this power hungry person is something I don’t believe in at all.
“So let me understand it all, you are saying that you had been following up the Smiths just so you can get a p

CHAPTER 41EMBERLYNN’S POVI sit up wandering what woke me up, I stretch and feel for Luca, he isn’t here, did he go back home while I was asleep.The bathroom door opens and he comes out with a smile, “Morning”, he says coming towards me, “Wait did you hear the scream too”, he asks his face becoming more serious, losing all playfulness.“Scream?” I think, was that what woke me up? “I’m not sure but something woke me up, we should check it out”, I grab my robe from where it hung on the bathroom door.Together we walked out towards the stairs, I clap my hands as we pass the darkened hall way so the lights can come on.When we reach the stairs I see Aria, she looks disheveled, I start running towards her, whatever could have happened to her.All of a sudden I stop I feel the hairs on my body stand on end, goose bumps attack me, I feel my heart be

CHAPTER 43 EMBERLYNN’S POV “The deal with Maurice and Stephens will be terminated, the numbers are going down, in 2 weeks we have lost millions of dollars and I see no way they can bring it up in such a short while, I'm not just talking bringing it up, I'm saying give us numbers that will make the books stop looking like a damn playing ground”, I say dumping the folder on the table. It’s a meeting with the board and this particular project has been yielding loss, it was signed after dad’s death, the one week I had been away and for a month were I had been the acting CEO, there had been no change. “I am not saying you're wrong because the numbers are glaringly obvious but I think it’s not right to deal with a woman especially one who is still dealing with grief”, Mr. Sczender says, he has been the biggest thorn in my flesh. I had never cared much for the feminist community, it just wasn’t something I had passion to

CHAPTER 44LUCA’S POV“You did well and I will be leaving you for now, your wife doesn’t get to know all your gay fantasies are coming to pass when she thinks you’re busy in the office, but you know I might need you again so I won’t be deleting the files I have, do have a lovely day Mr. Sczender”, I say cutting the call.The fool was gay but for the life of me I have no idea why he was so scared of his wife knowing.After the burial of William I had needed someone on the board on myself if not I was sure that Emb would singlehandedly power the companies and I couldn’t have that, I had wanted to sabotage the company from the side and out shine her by bringing solutions but that was too risky so instead I found dirt on Mr. Sczender, which was pretty easy for the record.Everyone aside his wife knew that fact, I still doubted that fact, too many people knew for her to be in the dark but that wasn’t my business, it

CHAPTER 45EMBERLYNN’S POV“To a new era”, Luca says as he raises his glass, I smile and raise mine, Aria though takes her time, if she wasn’t in grief I will think she wasn’t happy with this whole wedding but that wasn’t possible, when she showed up suddenly I asked her what she thought about getting married to Luca again and though she took ages to reply it was the same reply.“I think you should marry him, he feels like a good man, to me”, she had said and rushed me to leave the house as she didn’t want to be there for long.I understood her but for me, I didn’t want to lose that last bond there.I look at her from my seat, I'm seated beside Luca while she is seated opposite us, I wish she will look at me so I can signal her with my eyes, it’s my wedding not my father’s funeral, finally she lifts her glasses with a smile and we clink our glasses together and drink.The waiter com

CHAPTER 46LUCA’S POVI put my phone down after putting the call across to Aria, I sit in my car waiting for her to emerge.Once she comes out I open the passenger’s door for her by leaning in, once she is in I take off.“Was that drama necessary?” she finally breaks the silence.“It’s been long that I was inside you princess”, I say, dropping my right hand on her laps, since the cloth is flay there’s no protection from my hand so I slip it in and fill her wetness through the lace panties she has on, I drag my hands down her sex and she whimpers clamping her legs together.“Tell me all this is mine, tell me you're wet for me”, I say digging my fingers into her thighs, she whimpers more and tries to rub herself against my hand for friction, “tell me” I insist.“All yours, it’s all yours”, she stammers out.I smile and

CHAPTER 47ARIA’S POVLuca is currently speeding down to the Smith’s mansion.As soon as the record ended, I was off Luca’s body setting my clothes so I look a little bit presentable, we already sprayed the car and let the windows down.“She should have listened when I said she should come to my house, now we are hurrying down town in a totally different area just because of her stubbornness, for all we know she may be dead already”, he complains hitting his hands on the steering.“Should I call 911?” I ask, I keep squeezing my clothes, I'm nervous as hell, it would be a new kind of low if my best friend died while I was fucking her husband in his car, not to mention on their wedding day, no that was a total low”.“Yes you should, it would do no good getting there with no help”, Luca says.I immediately pick my phone grateful to have something doing, at least I would stop thi

So we were at the office and then this emergency call came in, really frantic, woman said she was Kelly and her friend was bleeding at the Smith’s mansion, we all had to run down here because well someone died here few months ago and another person in blood, it mad the

CHAPTER 69ARIA’S POVI fume as I leave the town house, so they didn’t come here, if they weren’t here then they were at the mansion.I had gone to the market place as instructed and Aleysa had been the lead in making fun of me, pissed I had turned back to interrupt whatever plans they had.I get into one of Luca’s car and I take off in the direction of the mansion, I hope it wasn’t a dinner date, I really will hate that Luca made the effort, if it was sex I could understand he was a man and if there was a way to manipulate a wife who loved you, sex was a sure option.I get to the mansion in record time and I see the car packed, I breathe a sigh of relief as I take the front steps, I get to the front door and I push the heavy door open, once I get in my eyes jam with the bodies sprawled on the floor and I scream.I turn around and run forgetting there are steps there, I take out my phone as I climb down the firs

CHAPTER 68LUCA’S POV“You handled that well”, I say after the meeting and Emberlynn smiles.“I guess I trust you so much, I didn’t feel like that was the truth”, she says packing up her bags.“Going somewhere?” I ask“Yes, to the house, I've exhausted the strength for today, it was surprisingly hectic, lots to resolve, very disappointing as I have someone here”, she says and I ignore her jab at me, I give her a smile instead.“Should I rub your feet? Or I could go further up, do that stuff you love with my tongue”, I say wiggling my eyebrow.“Did we used to have lots of sex?” she asks with a full grin.“Of course we did, that is exactly how our little one was formed so early in our marriage”, I say mirroring her grin.I guess sucking up to her a second time wouldn’t be hard, I just had to make sure she doesn&rsquo

CHAPTER 67LUCA’S POVThe atmosphere in this office has never been this tensed, everyone is trying so hard not to say the wrong thing and the meeting hasn’t even started.Kelly and Aria stood behind Mrs. Marilyn and I respectively but Emberlynn insisted they got small chairs to sit, that the meeting will be a long one, so they had both gone to get chairs while Emb looked through some files.it will be stupid to deny that the office looked good on her, she was a boss, something I didn’t recognize before now, but it was true that getting this from her again was going to be tricky.Not only did she enjoy it, she didn’t trust me, I felt it from her right from the hospital and now it was like she was clearing up my people, so the only other option is that I hired the wrong people which still falls back on me.“Do I have something on my face?” she asks breaking my line of thought.“No”, I answer

CHAPTER 66ARIA’S POVShe’s firing me I think, just like that, after all the work I put in, she wants to dispose of me so she will beside Luca and enjoy all his successes, no I think as the words she said replays in my head.“My first decision as the CEO would be to fire Aria, I got dozens of report, you skip work, come late and most times it’s a temp that does your work, I'm not comfortable with that energy, I'm doing a sweep, and I think you should be first to go, thank you for your services, you can do as much as typing your letter, right?” she had said it so casually, with no emotion, as if I didn’t matter, could this be blamed on her memory?Someone doesn’t grow so cold over some loss of memory.“That’s your best friend Emberlynn”, I hear Luca defend me and try to reason with her.She replies him coldly too, her answer is like I'm her property who must conform since I was her best friend.

CHAPTER 65LUCA’S POV“What time are we showing up today?” Aria says from beside me, we had woken up several times in the night going at each other like animals so we slept in real late, the only reason our phones were not blowing up was because I had it off since yesterday as promised and now it was 10, I wasn’t sure I wanted to switch it on after all.“Should we just leave the work today?” I say going to the bathroom, I was hungry for a shower.“We don’t have that liberty, we are in war and we can always use Emb being in the hospital as a reason for going late but definitely not as one for not showing up”, she says making a good point.“Fine, I’ll shower first, don’t put on the phones till we are done bathing and even dressed, I don’t want to have to rush”, I say stepping into the scalding water, I pick up soap and lather my body.I didn’t think I will have t

CHAPTER 64EMBERLYNN’S POV“Whatever you put in that drip is good, I feel stronger” I say as soon as Dr. Sims comes for his morning rounds.He smiles and nods, “Was it the drug in the drip or the fact that you know you're not guilty of the nasty stuff your friend threw at you”, he says.I shrug, “Whatever it is, it’s giving me joy and strength, so I'm grateful”He nods and smiles.I return his smile, I had woken up from my drug induced sleep and found him sitting beside my bed, he said my husband left and so did Aria.He apologized for their attitude and I argued that there was no need, he told me all my husband told him and relieved me of the guilt I felt and then I slept a more rewarding sleep, now I was wide awake and ready to be discharged.“Are you sure you want to leave here? I mean now you get to see your friend unhindered, she might throw worse things your way”, he says.

CHAPTER 63LUCA’S POV“What did you do?” I ask as soon as I locate Aria, when I finally got to the hospital I kept calling her to find out what that call meant but she hadn’t picked up, so I had gone into Emb’s room just to meet utter chaos, they had asked me to excuse them as she was back in code red.I had wanted more explanation but no one was willing to explain so I started hunting for Aria, and after a whole thirty minutes or more I find her on the rooftop.“What do you mean?” she says in a calm controlled voice that I'm not buying even a bit.“I mean I walked into the room of a woman I left utterly healthy few hours ago and she’s suddenly in code red, as far as I know you were the last to see her”, I say imitating her calmness when inside me was a boiling rage.I wanted to be done with this whole mess and just enjoy but even that seems like it’s not possible.“She fou

CHAPTER 62EMBERLYNN’S POVI finally wake up from a restless sleep to see a nurse hovering over me, checking on the wires connected.“Hi”, she says when she sees I'm awake.“You're not Sandy”, I say and realize that sounded rude, “Sorry, I'm getting used to being without memory and I sort of got used to Sandy”, I say apologizing.She looks at me with kind eyes laced with a bit of pity.“Dr. Sims also thought it might be a bit hard for you waking up to a different face but Sandy is on call in the main emergency ward and I needed to check you out of the emergency, your accommodations have been upgraded as you're stable now”, she says making a joke about it.“Instead of transferring me, can’t I go home yet, my husband will want that too”, I say.“You think?”, she asks looking thoughtful and I nod, “Well let me have a bit of a talk with Dr. Sims and I wil
