Elowen:“Don’t fight it Guilia, allow the nice handsome men to take care of us,” I said to her as she struggled to get out of the car.The men in the car drove quietly without a word, and when we drove into the estate, Guilia sank into the seat with a scoff.“At least we are not being kidnapped,” she said.I tried counting the stars in the sky as the car moved, and when we zoomed away from it, I would sink back into the seat. I continued this until the car came to a halt.“Will.. you carry.. me again?” I slurred, walking in zigzags as I got out of the car.I walked to the from door while one man tried to get Lee out of the car. The front for swung open, and Dante walked out, rushing towards me. I chuckled when I saw his face, wrapping my hands around his neck while standing on my tiptoe.“I missed you… my angry ball,” I said, attempting to kiss him, but he pulled me away, grabbing my hand, and pulling me into the house.When he saw how reluctant I was, he threw me on his shoulder and
Elowen:“Go hide under the bed,” I whispered to Adjo, my heart palpitating to the highest.My entire body shook as I wondered what my faith would be if Guilia found Adjo in my room. She might never forgive me and Dante. I could never look at him.“Okay,” he said in a low tone, which was loud enough for Guilia to hear.I frowned, putting a hand over his mouth while pushing him towards the bed.Guilia groaned.“I should have known that dad was there, eww, it is your wedding day. Get a grip on yourself,” she said as Adjo got under the bed.I took deep breaths, scattering my hair even more to make it look like I was busy with Dante, then I walked to the door with my hands shaking tremendously. With one pull, I slightly opened the door, plastering my face between the wall and the door.“Matteo said he is here already, and I am so excited. I used this as a cover,” she said, handing the phone over.The cloak of guilt that hung over me was so much that a tear almost escaped my eyes while I fo
Elowen:All hell was let loose with my confession. I knew Dante loved me so much, but I doubt he would forgive me easily.“Did he coerce you?” he asked, cupping my face, and Guilia walked up to us with her face scrunched up.“Dad, were you in Elowens room this morning when I came around to return her phone?” She asked, and Dante glared at me, before answering,“No, I was in my room before the wedding.”“Then your wife is a cheating cheat. She was with Adjo in her room, and I think she enjoyed it,” she said, sizing me up before hissing. “Watch it, young woman. I still haven’t spoken about last night and we will revisit it,” he said, and Guilia sighed.“At least I wasn’t going around cheating on my wedding morning,” Guilia said, causing me to yell.“How can you say that?” I questioned.“Beats me, you didn’t think about it before you thought of cheating on your wedding day,” she said, and then she left.I hung my face low while Dante gave me a soul piercing stare. I was too ashamed to f
Elowen:Nothing prepared me for what I heard. The fact Matteo was the guy who tried to rape me caused a bolt of electricity up my spine as I stared at him and Guilia with my mouth ajar.Guilia glanced at me before grabbing Matteo’s hand.“Do you know each other?” she asked Matteo when he wouldn’t stop looking at me.Matteo shook his head.“Good, because staying with a cheat is bad for your health,”she sneered, walking away from me while I fought hard to get out of the shock. For a moment, I was glued to the spot, and I felt time stop.“Where have you been?” Dante asked, snapping me out of shock. I turned to face him, but I couldn’t do or say a thing.I threw my arms around him, crying in his chest.“What are you doing?” he whispered, but I wouldn’t say anything to him. “We are in public, and I do not think you should be doing that.”He pulled me away gently, then he took my hands and walked me into the hallway, away from the crowd of people. Then he lifted my chin, searching my eyes.
Elowen:Matteo lost balance, crashing to the ground with his butt, while Guilia rushed to help him. Dante glared at her with a frown, and she backed away. He grabbed Matteo, who was still trying to gain balance, but I rushed towards them.“Next time you see my daughter or wife, you will learn to walk away as fast as you can. If you’ll still have legs to walk,” he said, going in for another blow.“Dad, why are you doing this?” Guilia cried out.“Because he is an asshole who goes around trying to rape people’s wives.”I grabbed his hand before he could hit Matteo for the third time, causing him to glance at me with his face scrunched up.“Dante, please, he is not worth your time!”I held onto Dante’s hand, which was raised and cupped in a fist. He paused for a while, releasing Matteo with a hard push on the ground.For a moment, Guilia stood still, staring at Matteo, who was fighting to wipe away his bloody face. The weight of the news was too heavy, and it seemed she couldn’t come to t
Elowen:“Gosh, I am so happy that we are moving out,” I said to Lee, who was prepping my bath.I couldn’t imagine going months without seeing Aria, Laura, and the family members. This was a dream come true, and Dante has never been more sexy.“I’m happy for you too,” Lee said.She sounded sad, and I was about to ask what was up when my phone went off. I grabbed it to see that it was Adjo calling. I hissed, refusing to pick it, but when he wouldn’t stop, I picked it up.“Heard you were moving, so I wanted to meet up for the last time because we…”“Goodbye, Adjo, and never call my line,” I said, ending the call.I went straight to the block button, did the deed, and blocked him. Then I threw my phone away.“Lee, why do you sound unhappy?” I said, and she shook her head, walking to the closet.When it occurred to me, I slapped my forehead.“Look, Lee, I have you in mind and I won’t be leaving here without you,” I said, and she turned around with a smile on her face.“Good, because I thou
Third person pov:The plans seemed to have fallen in line for Guilia Guerra, because when they woke up the next morning, both she and Elowen got hand written messages from Dante, stating that he had gone on a business trip.Elowen wasn’t eager to go to the party because she expected a bad outcome, while Guilia grinned ear to ear all day. Night fall came faster than the snap of a finger, and Elowen found herself standing in front of her mirror, getting dressed in a white dress for the all white themed masked party.“Why do we have to wear masks?” Elowen asked.“Beats me,” Guilia shrugged. “Whatever reason it is, I will have to thank Xavier properly for doing that because we would be long gone before he discovers who I am,” she said to Elowen, helping her zip her dress.When they were done, Guilia excused herself. She walked to her father’s room and ransacked the table until she found his invite to the party, which stated he could come with a plus one.“Let’s go,” she said to Elowen, wh
Third-person pov:One would think Guilia was done with her scheming and plotting, but it seemed like she was just getting started.“I can’t wait until he calls,” Guilia said the next day to Elowen while they had breakfast.“I’m guessing you just want to see his face,” Elowen said.“Eww!” Guilia exclaimed.She was about to speak again when her phone went off. When she glanced at her phone and saw an unsaved number, a smile crept up her lips.“Shh,” she said, picking up the phone. “Hello,” she said in a seductive tone when she picked up the call.“Baby, is Elowen there with you?”When she heard her father’s voice, her face became wrinkled. She looked at Elowen, trying to decipher if to tell her or not. Elowen shrugged at her, and she smiled.“Yes,” she replied.“I’m so worked up here in Italy and I can’t tell what gift to being home to her for our wedding and to apologize for abandoning…”Before Dante could finish, Guilia heard her phone beep, causing her to lose focus.“I’m sure you’ll
