PIETRO

“I promise I will tell you everything.”

What happened last night flashed in my head as the words I promised Lucrezia echoed inside my mind.

How could I tell her those words? What a cruel man I am to answer her with a promise that I am hesitant to fulfill. She was pouring her heart out on to me and I gave her an empty promise instead.

I even demanded trust from her when I couldn’t show her trust myself. Truly, Lucrezia doesn’t deserve to be with a man like me. Out of all the men in the universe, why does she had to fall in love with me?

A man like me could only bring her more pain and trouble than happiness. She’s committing her life to suffering by committing her life to me.

I shouldn’t have pulled her into this, but this is the only thing that I can do to ensure her a better life. Things will only be worst for her if she marries Eros.

That man would never protect her, he will hurt her himself. Eros will only use her because a selfish man

    LUCREZIA My hands trembled lightly and my palms were sweaty as I sat on my bed staring at the tall mirror in front of me. I forced a smile on my face, but my lips only curled into a crooked smile.I could hear my heart pounding in my ears as I try to relax myself and get rid of the thoughts that were entering my head. I’m not sure of what I’m truly feeling. Was I anxious or was I scared? ‘Why does my eyes look sad? Isn’t this what I wanted?’ I asked myself as stared eye to eye with my own reflection. I looked down on myself and twiddled with the white fabric of my wedding gown. Today is my wedding day, and I’m already wearing my wedding dress and I’m in my bridal makeup.I’m fully ready. The servants helped me with the dress and makeup, and when they were done, I excused myself to them and asked them to leave me alone in my room for a moment.Before this day ends, I would become married to Pietro making me feel overwhelmed. I’m not sure exactly what to feel. I love him that I am h

    LUCREZIA The day ended in a bliss. Before I knew it, I was married.Since both me and Pietro came from a luxurious family, our wedding wasn’t short of anything. The whole ceremony was grand and prominent guests that were invited came bearing gifts. Businessmen, politicians and other people came to witness the wedding, including our family’s friends that were part of our family business. With so many guests that came to bless us and celebrate the wedding, Pietro and I weren’t able to cross our paths often. The groom is busy catering to other guests and I was busy catering the others too. The only time that Pietro and I were able to face and talk again was when we had our dance together as husband and wife. I’m glad that my sister, Concetta and Agrippa were here to accompany me for the rest of the day. The three helped me lift my mind off my problems with their crazy stories about their lives as a wife.Agrippa and Concetta were the most happy to see me get married like them.Even

    PIETRONight has come and the guests had left, the wedding was over and we are now to head home. A place where I won’t live alone anymore. I could now feel the tiredness overcoming my body, especially the small pains coming from my leg. I was standing all day, walking around talking to the guests. I was afraid to take the seat beside Lucrezia. I thought it would be best if I keep my distance from her especially after the vows that I have given her. I made it clear to her that I won’t love her and if she expects that I would, she will only end up getting disappointed.It’s better to break the last hopes that she has so she would stop expecting love from me. During our exchange of vows, I knew that was what she was trying to tell me. I can’t give her false hopes. I have to act on my words and show her that I was saying the truth. “Lucrezia left early.” Pericles told me even though I wasn’t asking. I saw her left earlier, even though I was keeping myself busy with the other guests,

    As the two of them stared with each other, the digital clock at the corner of the room, blinks faintly under the room’s orange light; 2:45 AM2: 46 AM“You should go to your room and sleep, It’s too late.” It was Pietro’s who spoke first, breaking the silence between them.Pietro walks past Lucrezia as if she did not just wait faithfully for him to come home. He went directly to his cabinet to take nightclothes that he can change into before he sleeps. Lucrezia gritted her teeth, as she fought the urge to shake some senses in this cold-hearted man. She had noticed it earlier that there were two rooms in the mansion, one was meant for her and the other meant for him. She wasn’t expecting this from Pietro, who never told him that they would be staying in the same house, but sleeping in different rooms. Even though they are already married, Pietro still doesn’t want anything to do with her. Does he not like her this much?“You want me to go to the other room to sleep after I waited for

    LUCREZIAI sauntered towards Pietro to face him after I told him my wishes. My wish is simple, I just don’t want to regret this marriage. He said it himself that I shouldn’t expect love from him, but as my husband he should at least give me something. If he is not willing to give me his love, then he should at least give me something else. It just so happens that the other thing I desire is to have a child with him. I sauntered towards Pietro to face him and continue what I was doing as if I didn’t just bluntly demanded him to impregnate me. I placed my arms around him again and I almost flinched back when I met his eyes. It didn’t escape my eye to see the hints of guilt and hesitation that swirled in his eye. I removed my hands from him instantly as if I was burned by his touch. My feet took small steps backwards, as I continue to stare at him with my mouth slackening with disappointment. He is not willing to give me love, and he is not willing to

    LUCREZIAI groaned and stretched my limbs, making the blanket look small over my body. I just woke up, but my head still feels heavy and my eyes felt like glue had sticked my eyelids close. It’s weird that I woke up feeling like like I hadn’t slept a wink. I didn’tt know that was even possible. What time did I sleep again?I scrunched my nose and turned on my belly as I try to recall memories of last night, but my mind felt tired to even recall anything. What exactly happened last night?I let out a huge breath and slowly opened my eyes with great difficulty. The morning light almost blinded my tired eyes, it took me a few blinks to adjust my eyesight.I sat abruptly on the bed, my eyes shooting wide when I realized that I have woken up in a different room. Only when I was already sitting up with frantic eyes did I finally remember everything that had happened.No wonder why my body felt so heavy as if I was knocked out in a boxing match. I am used

    PIETRO My body feels tired and heavy after a long day at work. I was just planning to finish some paperworks, but once I get into work mode it was really hard for me to stop. I ended up staying in the office longer than I had initially planned. I drove to the parking lot surprised to see that the lights in the mansion were still open, I glanced at the time indicator in the car and saw that it was almost midnight, 11:53 to be exact.Lucrezia slept at almost 3:00 in the morning last night, I thought that she would more likely to be asleep right now.Even I feel like my body is about to give up because of lack of sleep and still pushing my body to working up to this hour. I think I only had a three hour sleep after the wedding and after that I continued with my usual work routine again. I’m supposed to be on leave today considering that I just got married. However I don’t want to make things awkward between us by staying in the house alone with Luc

    “Shit! Shit! Shit! You imbeciles! I’m paying you money and you can’t even kill one damn man!” Eros was agitated and he couldn’t stop yelling while staring at his computer. He had cameras all over his mansion so he could see everything that was happening. Eros had never seen Pietro fought anyone before. He didn’t expect him to be this good. He is like James Bond, taking down so many people at a time. Eros is not fully aware of Pietro’s past. He has no idea about the training that he got as a little child. Pietro was trained to be like a killer machine. His training could be likened to that of Black Widow, if only that character was real. Eros kept sending and sending all his people, but Pietro killed all the men trying to stop him from reaching his wife until Eros had no one else to send and stop Pietro anymore. Lucrezia had no access to the computer, but she witnessed how Eros was scared out of his wits as he watched what Pietro is doing to his men. Lucrezia could also fully hear

    Lucrezia’s stomach turned. Even though they are criminals and big time mafias, they still have their own principles and things that they couldn’t bring themselves to do.Eros is just pure evil, a monster.He is a disgrace to the mafias. What kind of man could say those words with a straight face.“What does these things have to do with my father? What does it have to do with Pietro? Why do you have to kill him?” Lucrezia asks.“You see, your father and I share the same goal. We want to be the best in the Commission and Pietro is an obstacle stopping us from reaching that goal.Lucrezia felt more guilty upon hearing this. She thought Pietro was the one who was greedy. She thought he was the one trying to become the next capo di tutti capi.“If that is so, then why spare me? Why spare my father? I’m Pietro’s wife. Why not kill me with him?”“Because your father and I had a deal.” Eros answers taking Lucrezia by surprise.“A deal?” Lucrezia mutters breathlessly feeling like she just disco

    “Vaffanculo! Vaffanculo!” Lucrezia curses repeatedly inside her car as she drove along with other Italian curses that she grew up hearing from their Italian helpers at home. Lucrezia pressed on the gas pedal, speeding at the almost empty highway at dawn to reach her husband at home who has no idea that his life is in danger. She shouldn’t ave gone to her home. She shouldn’t have told her father anything. She shouldn’t have stuck her nose where it doesn’t belong in the first place. She shouldn’t have opened the door to Pietro’s office and indulged herself in the secrets that he was hiding. No wonder why Pietro is keeping things from her. Just hours after she found out his secret and she had already placed Pietro’s life in danger. Lucrezia had no idea that her father is working with Eros Cassiano to get rid of Pietro. She should have known that in the mafia, everybody has their own dark secrets and hidden agendas to hide. The fact that Pietro has one, shouldn’t have surprised her an

    Raimondo was silent for a long time as he listened to his daughter as she confides into him about Pietro’s secret. Raimondo earnestly listened without questioning her daughter’s words or interrupting her. Raimondo just stared into her daughter’s eyes as she went on with her story as if he was listening to her because he was worried about her. Lucrezia is supposed to tell her father about what Pietro’s secrets that she had just found about, the secrets that she discovered in Pietro’s office, but she changed her mind last minute because she thought it was a very important secret and it could implicate Pietro’s life, so she couldn’t rashly share those things to her father. Additionally, Lucrezia knows that her father would react negatively if he founds out bout that. Even she reacted so negatively when she finds out that her husband is planning something against the Commission. Unless she had ensured everything, unless she had everything straight with Pietro, nobody can find out abou

    PIETRO woke up because of his nightmare. For the first time, ever since he slept in the same bed as his wife, he woke up with the same dream, the same nightmare again.Ever since Pietro was a child, there wasn’t a night when he had not woken up haunted by nightmares. He always dreamed of the same thing, the friend that he killed. Every night, he would jolt up awake and the last thing he could remember was the picture of him pulling the trigger and killing his friend. His dream is very vivid like it all happened again. It was always exactly how he remembered it happen. Saying that Pietro was traumatized would be an understatement. Pietro was broken by his past, and only Lucrezia was able to piece him together. Through the love and kindness that she showed him, Pietro was able to forgive himself and see his value. Pietro calmly sits up, his breathing was rash and heavy like he had just ran a marathon. When his racing heart had finally slowed down, he opens the light beside him caus

    It’s already evening when I arrived home which means Pietro must be waiting for me at home. I wasn’t planning to stay outside until evening, but I had to travel between two different cities because Agrippa’s house and the place where I am going to get the key are located at two opposite cities. I wore a huge smile on my face as if I had the best day of my life as soon as I entered home. Just as I am expecting, Pietro is waiting for me at the living room just like how I always wait at the living room for him to welcome him home. Pietro’s eyes dropped on the shopping bags I’m carrying as soon as I entered the door. Seeing this, he did not dare ask where I went. He just assumed that I went for a shopping spree. On the way home, I stopped at a mall and shopped random things so that Pietro would think I spent the whole day at the mall. “You had a great day?” Pietro asked me as he walked towards me.I grinned at him. “I bought everything that I wanted.”“Good, you own all my money. You

    Agrippa sighed at the other side of the door, the loudest that I have ever heard her sigh. She knew that there is no way I’d leave this place. Even though my foot is hurting, jammed and pressed at the foot of their door, I wasn’t willing to remove my foot and let her go.No, I won’t leave this place, not until I find out everything that is happening, and not until I have given all the help that I could give her. No one deserves to be abused like that. No woman or no wife should live in the same house with her husband abusing her. My face softened and my heart ached inside my heart when Agrippa finally opened the door, revealing her inside. Agrippa refused to look at me on the eye. Her head is lowered in shame even though she had nothing to be ashamed about. I swallowed hard, not saying anything. You wouldn’t know what to say once you saw a hurt person in front of you. I’m afraid that if I say something it will only make Agrippa close herself from me even more. Asking her if she’s

Our life routine is back, and things got pretty boring for me once again as a wife who is always left at home without anything to take care of.If only Pietro gave me kids to take care of, then I wouldn’t have to feel so bored and I would stay all day at home without any complaints.I have sent Agrippa a message that I would visit her today. Although I haven’t received any reply from the heads up message I sent her, I decided to still just go. At least I have given her a heads up. Wheteher she replies or not it’s actually out of my control.With the help of Pietro’s driver and bodyguard that he had hired specially for me. I went to the mall first to buy something for Agrippa and her three little kids.I do not want to go there empty handed. Besides, I rarely go to their house to visit and I don’t give gifts to Agrippa’s kids often.

    LUCREZIAI stared at the ceiling as I lay on the bed with my eyes wide open as Pietro softly snores beside me. While Pietro is having the best sleep of his life, I couldn’t sleep because of I couldn’t stop thinking about the conversation we had in the car.For some reasons, Pietro’s words doesn’t sit well with me. I really don’t believe that Orenzio is the man behind all of this. I don’t think it’s possible that Orenzio knew about his father’s disease beforehand and that he was the one who told Serrano about it.I couldn’t forget the surprised look on Orenzio’s face and the anger that he felt as Serano stood on the stage making accusations against his father and telling everyone that he was hiding his dementia.Even if that was all just an act, I don’t believe that Orenzio could pull all that off so perfectly.
