Madison

"Excuse me, ma'am, but I think you might be sitting in the wrong seat."

I glance up at the flight attendant—a blonde lady with red-lipstick, strong rogue on her cheeks, and blonde hair put up in a neat bun. She is wearing high heels and a smile despite clearly thinking I'm sitting in the wrong seat.

I smile right back at her. "No, this is definitely my seat."

"Are you certain?" she asks. "Because this is a first-class seat reserved for Mr. Giovanni and his companion."

Part of me wants to ask her why I couldn't be that companion. If she thinks I look cheap or something, but instead, I swallow back my bitterness. Going to Portugal will be a fun thing for me and Victor to do, and I won't let this flight attendant ruin this bubbly let's-go-see-places mood I'm in.

I wet my lips and smile politely. "Yes, I'm that companion. This is my seat."

The flight attendant crosses her arms and fixes me with an icy stare. Her voice is brimming with skepticism as she says, "Ma'am, I canno

    MadisonAfter what feels like having spent half a lifetime on the plane, we are finally about to land. The flight attendant from earlier is collecting trash and looking so that every overhead bin is closed. When her eyes meet the ones belonging to Victor, I notice a rosy color spreads over her cheeks."Ah, Mr. Giovanni," she says. "I hope your time onboard has been pleasant. Are you headed to your summer house?"Wait. Summer house? What summer house? I had no idea Victor owned one of those in Portugal... And if he does, how come this lady knows about it? Shit. Don't tell me she is a former love interest or something. Have they slept together?Regardless of which, I glare at the bun-wearing woman, which Victor seems to find surprising. He lifts his eyebrows at me, gives me a weak smile, and then speaks to the flight attendant while keeping his eyes on me."You will have to excuse me, I can't say I remember who you are, but no, we aren't heading for my summer house. My girlfriend and I

    Victor"Five more minutes, please," Maddie groans as I try to wake her up in the morning.I chuckle and take the comforter off Maddie, revealing her tousled hair and sleepy eyes. "Wake up, sleepyhead. We are on vacation in a foreign country. Don't you want to see what's out there?"Madison groans again, pulling the pillow over her head. "But I'm still tired," she pleads, her voice muffled. I sit down on the edge of the bed and gently tug at the pillow. "Come on, Maddie. We have a whole day ahead of us. I want to show you some places. You don't want to miss out, do you?" She peeks out from under the pillow, her eyes still heavy with sleep. "But it's so cozy here," she says. I grin. I suppose it is my fault she is tired since I kept her up all night. "Alright. You get ten minutes while I go downstairs and talk to the butler."Madison mumbles something and goes back to sleep. Leaning down, I give her a gentle kiss on the cheek before heading out.I press the button in the dining room

    MadisonThe blissful days spent in Portugal with Victor were like a dream come true. Sunsets over the coastal hills, salty sea air, and days filled with love marked our stay in that breathtaking land. Part of me never wanted to leave that place.But unfortunately, everything good must come to an end. We had to fly back home yesterday, and reality has set its sharp claws into my skin today.Ugh, I can't believe I'm already working tomorrow.I'm horrified by the thought and lounging on the couch while feeling sorry for myself. Victor is already back at the restaurant. As the big boss, he can't be gone for too long. But at least he was nice enough to give me an extra day off since I haven't been feeling well.It's been a few weeks since my last period, and I've felt strange lately. I'm constantly tired, and my appetite is off. Plus, there have been other symptoms that make me think that I may be pregnant.My stomach feels bloated, my breasts are tender and swollen, and I've felt nauseous

    MadisonWhat kind of hell did I just walk into?"Maddie," Victor says, his voice as cool and calm as always. His eyes meet mine, searching for a reaction, but I'm still processing the shocking revelation.I try to gather my thoughts, my mind racing with a mix of emotions. Gustaf, my ex-boyfriend, dead? And Victor, my current boyfriend, possibly involved in his death? It's a surreal and terrifying situation to find myself in."What... What happened?" I manage to stammer, my voice trembling.Victor takes a deep breath, choosing his words carefully. "I did this for you, Maddie. I wanted to protect you from Gustaf."My heart pounds in my chest as I struggle to comprehend the gravity of the situation. "But...how..." I ask, my voice barely above a whisper. My head is pounding, and words are not forming how I want them to.Victor's gaze softens, and he takes my hands in his, his rough hands are strangely warm and comforting.

My head is spinning in circles, and I'm honestly so damn confused I don't even know how to feel.Can anyone blame me, though?My boyfriend is a murderer—a freaking mafia boss—who killed and kept my abusive ex-boyfriend in his freezer at the restaurant where I work. I'm pregnant with his baby, and here I am, about to share a bed with him.I don't know whether to laugh or cry about the situation. Victor terrifies me, but there is also this sick little part of my brain that finds him sexy."I'm going to take a shower," Victor announces while grabbing the hem of his t-shirt. "You can join me if you want, but if you rather stay here, that's fine too. Just don't try to run, Maddie. That won't end well."I sit down at the edge of the bed, arms crossed over my chest as I scowl up at his handsome face. He is very attractive, and at this moment, I hate him for it.Beautiful bastard.My face hardens. "Does Stanley know who and what you are?

    MadisonI fell asleep tucked into Victor's chest yesterday. I couldn't bring myself to push him away. Even if he was the reason I was upset, he was also the only cure for my sadness. It really sucks that I'm so in love with him..."What do you want for breakfast?" Victor asks me in a soft tone and turns around, smiling at me.He is looking as handsome as the devil wearing an apron while I'm sitting by the kitchen table with puffy eyes and mascara on my cheeks. I didn't shower yesterday."Anything is fine..." I mutter. "Or wait, just make sure what I'm eating is actually an animal and not some human you've butchered in your garage.""Ouch," Victor places his hand on his chest. "I felt that one in the heart, Maddie."I shoot him a glare. "I didn't think mafia bosses had feelings, much less murderers.""I'm still a person." He says, and the smile he gives me is more scary than friendly. I think it's because he has a calculating look on his face as if he is trying to figure out what I'm t

Victor looks at me with expectation, and I know I can't sit here forever without answering him.Overwhelmed with emotions, my heart pounding in my chest, I take a moment to collect myself. The weight of the ring in my hands feels significant, symbolizing a new chapter in our lives together. I look into Victor's eyes, searching for the truth, for any sign that this leap of faith is worth taking. And as I meet his gaze, I see sincerity and vulnerability, a glimpse of the man I fell in love with."Yes, Victor," I say, my voice trembling with a mixture of fear and hope. "I will marry you."A genuine smile spreads across his face, and he rises to his feet, closing the distance between us. He slips the ring onto my finger, and it sparkles in the dimly lit room."Thank you, Maddie." Victor's voice is low and husky. "You won't regret this." The weight of my decision settles in, knowin

"He's telling me to leave."Ethan's expression darkens. "We should go, then. Henrik!" he calls out to my brother, who's standing at the punch bowl, chatting up one of the teachers. "We need to leave. Now."Henrik nods, his eyes scanning the room. "I'll go get the car."We rush out of the venue, and Henrik pulls the car around to the front.

    Prom night.I stand in front of the mirror, admiring my dress. It's a strapless, navy blue gown that hugs my curves in all the right places. My friend Leslie helped me pick it out, and I couldn't be happier.I hear a tapping at my door, and I grin, knowing it's Henrik. I quickly open it."Ready to go?" Henrik asks.I nod, excitement bubbling inside of me. "Thanks for helping me with this, Henrik. I really appreciate it."He chuckles. "Of course, sis. Anything for you. Now, let's go before Dad starts to suspect something."We make our way outside, and I see Ethan's car waiting for us. Henrik opens the door for me, and I climb in. Ethan greets me with a smile. My heart skips a beat as I take in his handsome appearance. He's in a black tuxedo, and he looks like he just stepped out of a magazine."You look beautiful," he says, taking my hand.I blush, feeling flattered.

Where is Ethan?" she asks.I look at Damien, trying to give him a chance to explain the situation, but when he says nothing, I decide to tell her myself."Mr. Damien kidnapped me from my school."Adeline's face twists into a frown. "He did what!?" she exclaimed.Damien raises his hand. "Now, hold on, I wouldn't call it kidnapping."I keep my smile intact. "It was definitely kidnapping. Some guy just pulled over next to me and told me to get inside the car."Adeline glared at him.

"Look, Ethan. I don't care what kind of rivalry your dad and my dad have going on, but I want us to keep being friends. What do you have to say about that?"Ethan smirks and leans toward me. "Friends? I was hoping we could be more than friends."My heart does a little flip inside my ribcage. "Really?"Ethan nods, his smirk fading into a gentle smile. "Yeah, really.

"What do you mean?""I mean, why don't we go to one of those private rooms and...talk? Maybe you could give me a lap dance?" I say and wink at her.Her cheeks flush. "I am not one of the dancers. I am just a server."I shrug. "What if I pay extra?"She sucks in a breath and her eyes narrow. "Are you serious? That's highly inappropriate."

Make sure she doesn't see Ethan again.""You do realize they go to the same school, right? And they plan on going to the Prom together," I remind him."I will pull her out of school if I have to," Dad says gruffly.All four of us shake our heads disapprovingly.

    Sheila I changed my clothes at least three times in less than an hour. I am nervous. No, not just nervous. I am absolutely terrified of the dinner tonight. When Oliver told me he was planning on inviting Ethan over for dinner, my heart plunged to my throat. I tried to say no because I knew what my brothers were up to. They just want to invite Ethan so they can scare him in the comfort of their own home. But for some reason, I couldn't say no. Maybe because seeing Ethan in my house is much more tempting. I make a mental note to myself: I must protect Ethan from the quadruplets' wrath. And so I am standing in front of my wardrobe, looking for the perfect outfit. Nothing screams "I'm not interested" more than a casual T-shirt and jeans, but I don't want to seem too eager either. I try on a white summer dress with delicate lace details that fall perfectly around my curves. But then again, it's too girly and Ethan might think I'm trying too hard. So I put on a pair of slim-fitting j

Our father, Victor walks in and asks."Sheila is screaming at me because I scared her little date at the museum," I say gruffly.Dad scowls. "Date? What date?"Sheila's face turns pale. I can tell she is caught off guard as she didn't want to tell our father about her dating boys already. Hmm...I feel bad for her now. "She is trying to get a date for the Prom, Dad, that's all," I say in her defense."Okay...so what's the issue here?" Dad asks.
