ALESSIA'S POV

Two fucking days. Two days of being rushed off my feet and dragged around mercilessly. | chose a wedding dress. It was quite decent I just hated what it symbolised. This was really happening. There was nothing I could do to stop it. I didn't plead with father, he would have beat me and besides, he was enjoying himself in clubs.

I glanced down at my freshly painted nails. They were in nude, not a colour I'd choose but they looked beautiful regardless. | was glad to be kept busy in a way, | didn't have to interact with father. He stayed far away and | was glad he did so.

Tonight was my last night before the big day and chose to stay in bed and watch a horror movie. There was not much I wanted to do. If truth be told, | wanted to fall ill unexpectedly and ruin the wedding. That would surely piss father off. 1 chuckled as | imagined him taking off his belt in an attempt to strike me with it.

This time I wouldn't allow him to do it. ] might just snap and strangle him to death with his very own belt. I would gladly suffer the consequences if it meant he wouldn't be breathing.

l rubbed my hand over my smooth waxed leg. | wore pyjama shorts and a T-shirt as it was incredibly warm. The humidity I was used to because my home in Italy was often very sunny. America seemed like a nice place from what little ] have seen. | hope! don't have to stay here.

I hardly flinched when the movie showed a jump scare but was interrupted by KC. She smiled timidly as she cautiously entered my hotel room. ‘Don, you have received a gift.” She smiled gingerly.

My curiosity peaked and | paused the movie, sitting upright on the soft bed. She walked closer towards with me with a red box neatly adorned with a bow in her hands. ‘I've checked it out so it's safe.’ She said as she handed me the box. I nodded with a smile. | completely trusted her with my life.

KC left the room and | stared down at the box. Surely father would have not brought me a gift. 1 carefully undid the bow and let it fall to my lap. Upon opening the box | saw a beautiful diamond encrusted necklace inside. A single bright blue sapphire shimmered in the light as | ran my fingers over it.

I spotted a small gift tag and turned it over in my hand.

I didn't recognise the neat handwriting which spoke of undressing me and seeing me in nothing but the necklace. What the fuck? Ace? What the fuck is he thinking. What a fucking bastard. If he thinks he can fuck me on our wedding night, he’s got another thing coming.

No matter how hard | tried to sleep my mind was awake. My stomach was filled with nervous butterflies which wouldn't leave no matter how much wine I! drank. It was three in the morning and I gave up on sleep altogether.

I instead found out information about Ace. | wanted to know what kind of man | would be marrying. He was damn fucking ruthless all right. taking down a whole mafia organisation without breaking a sweat. I summed up that his life was mostly like mine growing up. Brutal and cold. He at least had both his parents but I didn't know what happened behind closed doors but | am certain his father never laid a hand on him as mine did to me.

What have | gotten myself into? | dreaded to think. I tried to clear my mind as best | could. All | need to do is walk down the aisle and say | do. Then I can do whatever the fuck I like. It's easy. It's easy.

"Don," KC said snapping me out of my daze. The room was now filled with bright sunshine announcing it was time to get ready. I sighed as I brushed my hair from my face. | left my bed unmade and took a shower.

After I got changed into a white T-shirt and leggings | left the bathroom and saw my now freshly made bed. A maid was in the room cleaning up and two ladies stood at the door of the room.

"What do you want?" I asked not bothering with manners, not that | had much, to begin with. I was fucking tired and upset even. One of the ladies held up a large black bag. "I'm a hair and she's makeup.’ She gestured to the other slim lady beside her.

"And I'm bored," I smirked as I crossed my arms across my chest. KC shook her head at me, clearly fed up with my antics. | groaned as | slumped down onto a chair. "Get to it. I would like natural makeup and curl my hair. I informed the two ladies.

Not a second later both ladies began to make me up. I sat still in silence as I couldn't help but feel distant. | flinched when the curling iron touched my ear. Watch it bitch!" | growled. The woman stilled and looked at me wide eyed. Before | could even attempt to hurl more profanities in her direction, KC sent me a look. | clenched my mouth shut as I bit down on my tongue.

Eventually, | got into my dress. A pure white dress with a plunging v neck. Lace lined the arms and neckline as the dress hugged my curves. It fell to the floor with a small tail. | refused to wear a veil as it looks utterly horrid.

I instead wore a small tiara which was worth a small fortune. The thousands of Swarovski diamonds, intricate and delicate, were woven together so beautifully. the light makes them dazzle with every head turn. | relished the opportunity to wear it as | didn't have any other occasion to do so. And fuck yes | was a queen and | felt like it too.

That was until my dreadful excuse of a father waltzed in, his body covered in a dark suit instead of his usual grey. | bit the inside of my cheek as I watched him run his eyes all over me. "You look beautiful." He mumbled, like the words hurt him. "Thank you, father," I replied in a monotone voice. I hated his compliments and | hated thanking him for them.

We soon left for the cars and headed for the wedding venue. I relaxed into my seat, father took another car. KC sat opposite me and held a hand on her gun.

"KC I'm nervous. I don't know why." I sighed as I brushed a strand of hair back into place behind my ear. She looked at me with concern. "Don't be Alessia. You'll be fine.” She reassured. With those words | felt my heart race even more.

"You are the strongest woman I know. Look at what you've done so far. Your mafia is one of the strongest in the world. You did that. And fuck, you can kill a man with your bare hands so what have you got to be nervous about?’ She grinned. "That's the nicest thing I've heard you say." ! smiled.

“Don't make me take it back.” She scoffed as she looked out of the black tinted windows. I chuckled. "You wouldn't dare...I'm glad you're here KC, thank you."

We finally stopped at a castle. Of course how fitting. | remained seated in an attempt to delay my arrival. I always enjoyed being late, can't | be late for my own wedding? Father soon appeared with a dirty scowl on his face. | didn't like the way his eyes twitched so | exited the car on my own because otherwise, he would drag me out.

I took in my surroundings as | fixed my tiara straight. The castle was absolutely breathtaking. The entrance was adorned with thousands of fresh white roses and the floor had a red carpet leading up to the doors. | made a mental note to purchase this castle for I had to have it. I tended to buy a lot of useless things such as castles and paintings.

I haven't however brought an island yet, something I've always wanted.

Your wedding day was supposed to be the happiest day of your life and here | was, getting married to a man | barely knew, all for the sake of a petty alliance. My happiness didn't mean anything. It never did.

Father held out his arm for me, an earthy hideous odour omitting from his movements. Smoke man, smoke and die. The man wanted to give me away. A daughter he cared not for. A daughter he never wanted. When I made no attempts to move, he forcefully grabbed my arm and hooked it in his.

"Non farlo Alessia. Mi metterai in imbarazzo. Metterete in imbarazzo la mafia (Don't do this Alessia. You will embarrass me. You will embarrass the mafia).’ He growled lowly. I don't miss how he wanted to say his mafia. I smiled tensely as I was handed a bouquet of a dozen white roses. | took a moment to appreciate the beauty of my wedding. | wore a beautiful dress and was standing in an idyllic castle. Just as quickly as that image crossed my mind it left.

I breathed slowly as we walked inside. Quiet piano music filled the air, playing a mesmerising tune. Garlands of lilies, roses and green sprigs of leaves adorned the rows of seats, leading down the aisle. The rows were filled sparsely and I couldn't see my friends. What I did see, however, were my cousins whom | didn't associate with. They were all greedy money grabbing whores. There was an excessive amount of security with gun equipped guards lining the room.

I tried not to smile when I saw my cousins' faces fall when they saw me. That's right bitches, | have it all. They resented me because | talked back because | didn't care. Half the guests I did not recognise but I saw the familiar face of Kaden as he stood beside Ace who had his back turned at the alter. Kaden smiled profusely as he fiddled with a ring on his finger.

Ace turned around and | saw him tense up as he stared at me. I saw a subtle gulp run down his throat as he tried to remain emotionless. His eyes sparkled, very dark, very cold. He wore a black suit that fitted his form perfectly. A small white rose poked out of his pocket. I took it all in. He was definitely more attractive in this light.

Father led me up the aisle. A more sombre moment than joyful. He was finally getting rid of me. He let go of my arm, pulled me close and kissed my cheek, thankfully it was a dry kiss. | tried to not flinch, the gesture was alien to me. Disgusting.

Father left and took a seat in the front row sitting beside Ace’s parents. | was now alone and | faced, Ace. | was only a couple of inches shorter so | could more or less look into his eyes. He was fucking tall and so was | in heels.

"Did you like your gift?” He whispered as a way of greeting me. His eyes only looked at me and never at my breasts. Strange. "I did," I replied honestly as the officiant cleared his throat. Looks like someone s in a rush. | didn't lie to him, I liked it.

“You look beautiful Alessia.” Ace smiled softly. I glanced at his hands. He didn't fidget. Why wasn't he nervous? "Thank you," I replied. He smirked. ‘No compliment for me?"

I smirked. "No, you look awful.” He chuckled as if the answer amused him. He knew it was a lie. A good liar knows the truth but a deceitful liar already knows.

The ceremony went on and | resisted the urge to slap the smirk on Ace's face as he held out his hands for me to hold. I slowly placed my hands in his, feeling a spark when | did so. I watched as he delicately placed a ring on my finger. I also placed a ring on his as I held onto his strong hand feeling his soft but calloused skin on mine.

And it was done. We were announced Mr and Mrs.

There was no escaping now for it was far too late. The only thing I had was my name. I was still Alessia Ferrari as I abhorred the idea of taking my husband's name, especially Ace's. My mafia knew me as Ferrari. My name held my reputation. Ace did not seem to care as he watched me sign the papers. In fact, I'm sure I saw a glimmer of pride pass through his eyes or maybe it was just pure amusement.

    If the wedding wasn't suffocating enough, I had to attend the after party. After all it was my wedding. However, I would rather be anywhere but at Ace's house with a majority of people I wholeheartedly disliked and didn't give two shits about. I stood around still in my wedding dress keeping to myself. Father was deep in conversation with Ace's parents and I watched perpelexed as he seemed to have laughed more than he has in the past month. The wrinkles on his forehead and around his eyes creased deeply with every smile. Kaden was keeping me company because Ace disappeared to fuck knows where. I hardly cared. Kaden returned with two glasses of champagne, one of which he handed to me. I gladly took it from him and drank it in one. He furrowed his eyebrows. "You good Alessia?" He asked. I smiled as I handed my empty glass to a waiter. "I'm absolutely perfect." I said as the smile on my face fell. "I just want to leave. I'm exhausted and starving." I sighed, dropping my facade.

    Ace's POVAlessia returned to Italy for some business she had to take care off. I was a little disheartened when she did indeed leave. She was growing on me much more than I cared to admit. I also had some business to take care off. Many bosses would sit on their thrones and let their advisors run their business for them. But not I. There was something about getting my hands dirty that drove me. It made me hunger for power. That did mean I had little time to myself but when I did, I enjoyed it. I smiled to myself when the thought of taking Alessia out crossed my mind. Would she even want to go out with me? No fuck. I can't think like that. I knew I wasn't compassionate and loveable. Not like Kaden. My heart sank at the possibility of Alessia rejecting me. Perhaps she would stay in Italy and never return. I wasn't good enough for her. I could never be. This marriage was nothing but a piece of paper like she said. I headed for my basement, a large empty room. Soundproof and dark. A

But one thing was for sure, I would have to attend this year because I don't have an excuse. I have never seen fucking Ace attend, not once. Fucking lucky. Lucious was a brawny man, standing at six foot four. His warm brown skin was covered in tacky tattoos. He's been a friend of mine for quite some time and I would trust my life if it were in his hands, which was a very rare thing to say about someone who's not blood. I sent Lucious a dirty look which encouraged him even more. "So I take that as a yes!" He chuckled and sipped more mouthfuls of champagne. I dare not open my mouth for even I'm afraid of what might come out. Sometimes, I have no control over what I say and a majority of times, I cause offence to people. Not that I cared, they can fuck off. I looked over at Ace who was right at home. He seemed ever so relaxed and carefree. I w
