VITTORIA~

I sat on the bed in my bedroom for some time taking huge breaths and reminding myself that death always wasn't a solution to everything. And besides that, if I killed my husband, I would only pray I made it a few meters past the gate before I joined him in hell.

I took several huge breaths as I was taught in the anger management classes my mother had signed me up for when she was alive which didn't really help that much since I stopped going after the second time. I figured out that I didn't have an anger problem, it was just those around me who were annoying.

I calmed down a bit and took off the stained dress, then walked to my closet and looked through it, browsing through the options I had like I hadn't done it before deciding to go shopping. I cursed Roman once more under my breath and slid the closet door closed. My phone rang and I saw it was Uncle Quinto calling I knew it was just to ask if we were already on our way or not

My eyes went to Roman's shopping bag and I g

    VITTORIA~"I was poisoned when I was younger. You can stop staring now." I told Roman boredly as I took out my phone. He had not stopped looking at me afterNicola had tasted the wine before giving it to me.After I had been poisoned by some househelp when I was younger, maybe six or seven, I had refused to eat or drink anything for days and my mother had to start the testing method to make me eat and regain trust. If I didn't get the drink myself, the person who did had to take it first to show me it was safe. Whenever we were at the table for food, my mother always tasted the food first. And when she didn't do it, Isabella did. After they passed away, Nicola started doing it."So you wouldn't eat something except someone took a bite first?" I heard him ask."Isn't it obvious?" I snapped at him.There was silence for a while before he spoke up again. "That's fucked up. I'm sorry you had to experience that." He said."Hey!! Celebrant. Rio the man!"I looked up to see North and the twi

    ~VITTORIA~It was safe to say that never in my life would I have been so delighted to see Roman. And most especially when I was in this kind of state, one he hadn't seen me in before.Simone backed up a bit, At the same time Roman strode to where we were, and the previous excitement in his eyes remained, only that it didn't look as dominating as before and his confidence was suddenly wrapped up a bit.Roman glared at him as he took my hand in his and ran a quick check at me. "What is going on here?" Roman repeated tearing his eyes away from me to Simone. "What did you say to her?"Simone scoffed unimpressed. "Nothing I shouldn't have. A little information on Isabelle is no harm."From the side, I saw Roman's jaw clench and his grip tightened around my wrist. There was silence and it looked like they were sharing unspoken words between them.I stood, words far from my mouth to even say anything and the only thing that rang in my head was Isabelle and a deal and her standing here and of

    ~VITTORIA~My head hurt almost as bad as the light that was harsh on my face. I hissed irritatedly trying to think of a reason why Nicola didn't shut the blinds as she did every night.I tossed on the bed and rolled over, backing the light and pulling the sheet over my shoulder to cover my face. The bed and sheet felt different but I guessed it was only because it had just gotten changed so I didn't really think much about it.Well until I heard some noise coming from somewhere in the room.My eyes flew open and an unfamiliar room came into view. I twisted my face as the light rays shot at my face strongly again and I sat up looking around.This wasn't my room.My room wasn't a light shade of Grey, wasn't this big, didn't have a high ceiling with more expensive marble floors, a dark shade of Grey colored dresser, a nude painting of a faceless woman on the wall, or any dark Grey colored drapes.I took the sheets off myself to see I was in a white oversized hoodie and my underwear and I

    ~ VITTORIA ~"What?!" I shouted with my eyes wide open. "You've got to be lying.""When have I ever lied to you, wifey?" He asked with an eyebrow raised.I bit my lower lips and narrowed my eyes at him and his t-shirt which was revealing his toned chest with every movement he did. "Well, people do all sorts of things when they're drunk.""Like what?" He asked dropping his mug and folding his arms like I had just opened up a new room for conversation. And if I was being totally honest, this was the first time we were having a conversation where I didn't feel like hitting him the next moment. Maybe it was the hangover. Yeah, I was sure it was."Waking up in people's bed, dancing crazily, kissing random people." I counted on my fingers."And confessing they enjoyed sex with me after being in denial for so long?" He smirked.I stood up. "I'm out of here." I grabbed the mug, took a last sip from it, and headed over to the sink to drop it. And I felt Roman's eyes follow me. When I turned to

    ~ROMAN~"Okay but dude, you gave her that hoodie?!" Cleto shouted in a louder voice as soon as we all heard the door to Vittoria's room close shut."Drop it Cleto," I replied to him.He studied me for some time before his eyes slowly opened wide and he gasped, "You like her, don't you?""I wouldn't mind smacking your head for a third time," I told him eyeing him.North sat on a stool beside Cleto, watching me. "He's a goner. He's totally in love. Mother would be glad to hear that.""If only you'd go tell her yourself." I snapped back eyeing him as well making him scoff.Diego shook his head, "And the bet?""Look. Why are you guys even here?" I asked changing the topic. "I've got a busy day today," I added starting to get irritated by their questions. So what if I liked her? They didn't know the history we had before the stupid bet or marriage. And who even still gave a fuck about that stupid bet?"Meeting with Zaed? It was supposed to be this evening." Diego answered in a matter-of-fa

    ~VITTORIA~I stood conflicted. Trying to fight being vulnerable before him and acting like his words hadn't made my supposed hardened heart turn into a soft mush of love Jelly. If there was something like that."I'm sorry about Isabelle." He repeated and before I said any extra thing, he drew me into a hug. His arms were wrapped tightly around my neck and back and with the way he snuggled into my neck and drew me closer, it felt like he had wanted to do so for so long.I didn't hug him back though, it felt wrong to do so for some reason. Hugging back an Argentero, one of the people who had caused Isabelle's death. I had no idea what she would think of me wherever she was and how bad of a person and selfish I was.I pulled back but he still held my hands and I took a deep breath, deciding it was finally time to let him know. "Do you know why I regret that night with you so much?" I asked him, searching his eyes to see if he even had the slightest hint. "It's because that was the same n

    ~VITTORIA~The party was at a hotel, according to Yara and it was going to be strictly on invitation. I mean she was still part of a mafia family even though she was a celebrity and in the spotlight. And besides who knew what next was going to happen? If someone else that wasn't Bianchi was by a corner and was deciding to end us all.We were on the way already, I rode with Roman as usual and we were dressed just right for the occasion. Roman had come home the day before with another set of dresses and shoes and whatnot just like he had done before our wedding party. And of course a bouquet of roses which he had said he needed to start getting more often for me. Even though I told him it wasn't going to be necessary.We pulled up in front of the giant hotel that was well-lit from the outside and screamed luxury. As Roman held the door open for me and I came down, a valet attendant came to us and Nicola followed behind."Ma'am, I'm not sure but I think I just sighted one of Mr Tiziano's

    ~VITTORIA~"And if I don't want to?" I asked him crossing my legs and leaning back into my seat."You know damn well I'm not asking now, am I?" He asked."Can't believe she's letting the man stand for so long," One of Yara's celebrity friends said. "I'd stand in a heartbeat and let him do away with me.""Fucking stuck up bitch." Another mutteredI looked around a bit to see some more eyes were starting to fall on us and I sighed, standing up. I was determined to not make the headlines."Now that wasn't hard, was it?" Roman asked as he led me to the dance floor. The light dimmed as if it had been waiting for us to step into the floor and all that was left was a lit silhouette of couples together and others who sat in the crowd."You were flirting with him right?" He asked as he placed his hands on my waist and pulled me in making me gasp at how roughly he did it."I have a knife in my dress if you're being this way." I threatened and he rolled his eyes as we moved side by side slowly.

    ~ VITTORIA ~"Shit," I said turning to look at Roman. He held my hand immediately and I saw him take out a gun with his other hand."It's going to be okay. I'm not letting anything happen to you." He assured me and I could see it in his eyes that he meant what he said which made me trust him more. Our car sped up while Roman and Nicola started to shoot at where the car which was attacking was.The whole thing was becoming more fierce and the ride was becoming bumpy. In less than 2 minutes, the car behind us which had Roman and Uncle Quinto's men crashed into a pole making a halt. "Don't stop driving, Gio!" Roman commanded. "Vittoria babydoll, are you okay?" He asked scanning from my hair down to my body and I nodded swiftly. I hadn't noticed how tight I had clutched to him or the reason why I had because I mean I was Vittoria, the Lilith, not a girl who couldn't take care of herself. But here I was anyway, acting like I hadn't earned that nickname myself. Two more of our cars fill

    ~VITTORIA ~ I woke up in Roman's bed, again. This was something I was not going to get used to anytime soon. We had not addressed what had happened at Simone's house a few days ago and he didn't look like he was going to talk about it so I just kind of let it be. The day after that, he had come back acting like his usual self, flirty and annoying. He had even gotten me a couple of gifts while coming back home and I thought that was sweet of him. Yesterday evening, he had met me in the kitchen, making coffee which I had planned to use to keep me awake while I worked. And somehow we had started flirting and the flirting had turned into kissing him and now I was awake the next day in his bed. How I had just given in to him made me realize how much I had missed him from the last intimate night we shared and I found myself this morning wanting more of him even. He was snoring softly behind me as he moved a little, I turned around gently to face him. He had his arm on me and in his slee

    ~ROMAN~"I can say I'm sorry I brought up mum," North said and it was taking every amount of self-control in me to stop me from hitting him."You love being his little pet, don't you?" I asked him and I saw him roll his eyes. I hated it when he was like this. And by this, I meant thoughtless and fucking annoying. "I'm just obeying him. I'm seeing reasons with him." North replied with a little shrug. As if that was the most sane thing to do with father.Cleto and Diego were stood in a corner listening and trying their hardest not to interfere, as they knew best. The opened bottles of alcohol and wine were left untouched on the meeting table because as soon as we had tried to drink together, this fool had decided it was the best time to piss me off. "It's something simple. If we take over the Bellucci territory and vote them out of their power rank with the support of the other families, their routes, casinos, clubs... casinos lost especially are going to be ours and-"Before he could

    ~VITTORIA~I walked into the sitting room and scoffed, making them notice my presence. Sore enough they weren't happy to see me. Simone was sitting there together with three other men who were from other mafia families of lower rank. They had also been present at the meeting when Bianchi was killed by Roman."Y'all seem to be having a fun conversation," I told them looking from one person to another. And making sure I said it in the rudest tone I could use. "I mean since Tiziano's name was mentioned, it sparked my interest a little bit too much.""Always that damn mouth of hers," One of them spat out giving me a dirty look from head to toe."I told you." Another chipped in, in a low tone."You fuckin-""Vittoria," Roman called out softly, cutting me off and grabbing my hand. I had forgotten he was even there with me."I'll take care of it from here." He assured."Yeah, you better. I wouldn't want to deal with a woman's whining today." The first man commented once more."Say a sentence

    ~VITTORIA~The sun rays from the window which crept into the kitchen every morning were starting to make me look forward to drinking coffee on the kitchen counter every morning. And I couldn't lie, I loved it every single time. I had even bought two plants a week earlier and positioned them next to the window and so far, they had been doing quite well for themselves. In addition to Roman always remembering to water them each time. Something I always seemed to forget."You know, you really don't have to come with me to Ontario just for that," I told Roman the next morning as he dropped a coffee mug in front of me after taking a quick sip from it. "I'd just go and be back in a quick while.""Thank you," I added.He dropped a plate of waffles which he had just finished making in front of me too, dropped with his coffee as well before taking a seat in front of me. "I wouldn't want you to miss my presence so much, baby doll." He responded in a casual tone, winking at me.I rolled my eyes a

    ~VITTORIA~I woke up the next morning and reached for my nightstand to check the time with my eyes still closed. I couldn't find it neither could I find my phone and it was only then that I felt someone holding me closely and warm breaths fanning my neck. And it was Roman. The whole previous night flooded my memory and I remained indifferent, trying to make the decision of how I was going to get away quietly without waking him up. The last night was incredible, I admitted and it was something I hadn't seen coming either. I enjoyed it as well but the lingering feeling of guilt I had in me wouldn't fade away for some reason. It was like I was reliving the past all over again, only that Isabelle's death had already kind of happened. I looked over slowly at him and he had his eyes still closed. I took a huge breath before gently taking his hand up and away from me. I had not even started getting up before his hand wrapped around my body and drew me closer to himself again. To my shock

    ~ROMAN~I was kissing her, even I couldn't believe it. After this long while which felt like a century. I was kissing her again. It was intimate, desperate, passionate, made me feel like I was losing my mind, and made me to realize how much I missed her all over again.She had her hands on my body for the first time willingly and I loved how her slender body rubbed against mine as she did it. It seemed like she had wanted this just as much as she had said and it felt like she had been holding back all these while just cause of her sister.I took her gently to beside the wall and before her back could even press the wall, I was back to kissing her. I slid my hand cupping one of her large breasts just like I had always wanted to and squeezed it gently through her cloth fabric. I kissed her neck, cheek, ear, anywhere I could, how many times I could before going back to her mouth. I just couldn't get enough of her."Baby doll, you have no idea how much I'd wanted to do this," I told her a

    ~VITTORIA~"Vittoria!" Yara called out once more, and a suspicious smile appeared on her lips. "What are you doing here huh?" she asked as she stood in front of me and smiled wider. Roman shook hands with Zaed and exchanged pleasantries. "I don't know, heard grocery prices here are pretty much decent," I replied in a sarcastic tone rolling my eyes at her.She gave me a pitiful look and then focused her gaze on Roman, "How do you cope with your Lilith babydoll, she tries too hard."I heard Roman chuckle and draw me closer to himself, something he's been doing practically all night. "She's cute though so it kind of cancels every other thing. Plus that was actually kind of funny."I smirked and folded my arms then stuck out my tongue at her."You're so lucky he's so much in love," Yara said to me, tucking strands of hair behind her ear."Didn't know you knew Will," Roman said to Zaed which made him shrug. "Eh... Hasn't been long since we got acquainted. But here's fire to be honest."

    ~VITTORIA~I turned to look at him, narrowing my eyes at him. Of everything and everywhere I'd thought about, this wasn't even on the list of thoughts.And had he not just spoken about how depressing his day was, like I mean, I was still stuck on his mother's topic and all of a sudden, I was here."My friend just opened here up a few days back. Today is the first show here." He informed me as he put an arm around my waist."The first show?" I asked.He nodded, "Yeah, you're going to love it. C'mon."We handed over our keys and walked inside the building. There weren't as many people outside or going inside. And for people who went inside, I could immediately tell that they were of the same social bracket as us.Getting into the entrance, we were met with a large bar. Everywhere was painted red and black which sort of gave it this sexy, mysterious, and classy chill vibe. I could see not up to five people sitting around there and some were alone while the remaining were paired. Roman l
