He still stood by the door, his muscular arms folded around his chest, he still wore the Armani suit he had on in this morning. His hair was more disorganized.
"Mariana " he whispered lightly walking over to where she stood, he didn't give her much time to process what was happening next but acted on impact.
Marco pulled her in his arms hugging her as tight as he could like all his tomorrow depended on it, his arm wrapped around her back and the other holding onto the back of her head.
Good enough she was far more shorter than him getting an easy access to his heart beat, wrapping her arms around him. She could fe his pain. Some how she wanted to take it all away and make it disappear through thin hair and maybe see his smile even if it's just this once.
She held onto him tightly, it felt so good to have his arms wrapped around her.

Mariana stood in her room, Stephanie had ordered for her many clothes but none of them seemed to be comfortable for the night.All the shirts Marco had given her where left back at his house, yet she was used to his cologne. The smell of dry wood and danger he held was addictive.The silk night gowns didn't seem like a thing for her, her eyes moved over to Marco's coat then back at the night dress but her mind seemed to have already decided on a night gown.She moved towards the bed and stripped out of her uniform then placed the coat on top of her white lingerie before getting under white and dark green duvet.A sense of comfort and peace savoured her, as her eyes closed. It felt like Marco was here with her, his arms wrapped around her.Unconsciously she didn't realize she was smiling, now that's something she rarely did.Marco was crossing all the borders and walls around her, he was starting to form a place for himself in her heart

"Shit " Davin cursed as he shot forward making way for them as they ran down the stairs, he pushed Mariana back as a few bullets flew there way.More bullets kept coming as they managed to make there way out to the car that was parked and got in placing the bag on the floor as Gaetano drove off, he looked through the rear view mirror at Mariana.Marco may had trusted this girl easily but why was it hard for him to trust her, it seemed there's more to her than the cover picture she gave off.As they drove off a few cars started to follow behind, Davin and Aveline shot a few tyres with Mariana until they reached an open ground where the two jets were.They all stepped out of the car running towards the jets, Gaetano helped Mariana and Aveline up then he did the same for him self."Fucking shit !

" it's okay just follow me " he assured her.Mariana silently followed Marco upstairs to the third door down the hallway on the left then stepped inside.The lights turned on as Mariana took more steps inside, her eyes looking around the room which was twice the size of hers.

Placing her head on the pillow she watched him, his eyes were closed.He had sweat on his forehead, a few strands falling over with a hand behind his head. Her eyes moved over to his lips making her lick her own remembering every single one of his kisses.She didn't realise that he fallen a sleep, his whole body and face

Every thing seemed to much for her as she ran out through the back door to the garden.She was trailing along the lines of her end, it seemed like even if she travelled far away Valente will always have ways to ruin her life.This was her end, if Gaetano decided to tell Marco but of course he was going to tell him.Her heart shattered at the thought of Marco's anger, would he really kill her or was it going to be much worse.As she sat down by the fountain staring at the sky someone squat next to her cutting through her thoughts " Mariana " the deep voice made her turn abruptly staring at Gaetano.From up close he was a beautiful man, with blue sky eyes just like hers."

"How did my freaking house blow up?" Marco roared for the third time in the row but still got no answer but cold stares from Gaetano, Gianni and Antonio." Are you calm now ?" Gaetano asked and Marco's eyebrow quirked up at these guys. " Calm is not in my dictionary now shut up and tell me what the fuck is going on ?" He questioned back flopping down on the couch"Valente Russo blew your place up but apparently that seems like a warning, he sent a message for us" Gianni replied and now Marco's hands balled into a fist." We have some thing that belongs to him that we should return " Antonio finished earning glares from everyone."If you dare give Adriana to that piece of deep shit Antonio, I won't hesitate to murder you with my bare hands " and with that Gianni left the room leaving only the two of them glaring at Antonio."I don't think Valente meant Adriana " Gaetano murmured under his breath which went unnoticed.Marco strode to his room

Antonio let Mariana go with a smug look " what the fuck man? " Gianni questioned walking towards the scared girl with tears in her eyes."Ana, are you okay ?" He whispered and she chocked out a sob then nodded lightly."Go up stairs to Marco's room, he has been looking for you " he added and she nodded then without looking back, she ran out of the room past the men on the dining table who gave her curious looks and upstairs.She heard the screaming and shattering of things from the kitchen but didn't turn back, she almost fell down the stairs when her shoes slipped but kept going up through the hallway to the third room on the left.She could hear the screams getting louder, but didn't care until she tripped and fell to her knees with a scream.

Marco leaned against the wall and stared at Gaetano who held a firm expression as he hit the punching bag as if wanting it to bleed and beg for his mercy."You must be joking with me bro" he growled in anger while glaring at Marco as he held the punching bag to a stop.Marco shook his head and moved forward grabbing a bottle of water, he screwed the cap and dawned all it's contents in one go."Is there another way to convince you ?" Geatano questioned as he moved forward taking a seat on the bench."No, I am serious about this Gaetano but I will always be around when you need me " Marco replied seating on the bench across him."Does Gianni know ?"

Seven months laterMiami10 : 48 pmMariana looked around her studio and sighed, her eyes moved back to Marco's painting she had just completed.Those brown - gold eyes that held her world, she really missed him.It had been long since she had last seen him and he was in coma by then.She had remained in contact with Gaetano all this time, he kept informing her of his well being.Marco had spent four months in coma and woke up three months ago, even though he kept asking for her she didn't go.She had settled in Miami and created under ground training centers for body guards and assassins, she had bought a house here though it felt empty being here alone but it had become home.Mariana slowly held on to the wall pulling her self up on her feet and breathed out.

You blew up Marco's house and then ordered for his assassination.In all you forgot one thing, I know all the faces of the cobras. I grew up with them and I know all there tactics, just because I had lost my voice doesn't make me stupid "She turned towards the cobras that stood behind Gaetano and Gianni with raised guns" lower your damn guns cobras and untie every single person in this building, let them free " she ordered and Valente's eyes widened."Don't you dare " Valente roared and Mariana shook her head."Your forgetting again Valente, I rule but you are just a husband.

Mariana stood still her thoughts moving back to Marco.Her heart started to hurt deeply for him but then it was all her fault.The cobra's don't work without Valente's orders or hers but now she wasn't around.That meant Valente knew where she was already and knew about her and Marco, if not then why would he attack Di Martino brothers.How could she had skipped the signs yet they were always in front of her.She stared at pair of eyes all focused on her, she wasn't ready to let these good people who helped her get hurt.She turned towards the bed side table and knelt besides it, she pulled the first safe open and searched through the mass of papers.She had seen Marco keep two to three guns in these safes, all she needed was one.Opening the other safe, she saw two guns and pulled them out. She checked them properly and good enough they were all loaded.She walked back into the wardrobe and grabbed a pair of flats from

Mariana rolled over in bed turning away from the bright sun to continue with her sleep.She had never felt so free in her life, deep in her there was the peace that she always longed for."What are you smiling about ?" She almost jumped back at Marco's voice.She didn't expect him to be around by the time she woke up, her eyes slowly opened.Looking up she saw him getting dressed ready to leave, "Marco" her voice was so small and husky but still it made his heart flatter.She sat up pulling the white sheet around her body looking at him"I need a date tonight" he replied turning around to look at her."Okay..." He walked over to her sitting besides her and grabbing her hand in his."I want you to come with me tonight, we won't be staying long. I just need to check on something " he added holding her gaze " and maybe we can have a perfect d

Seriously it really hurtIt hurt that all her life and hopes will always be shattered due to her history with Valente.A finger trailed along her naked shoulder making her shiver which pulled her out of her thought.She turned her head to the side and caught sight of Marco standing behind her." Your precious as a pearl " he whispered and her eyes closed automatically.His words pulled a string of her heartHe trailed his finger slowly along the scar that started from her shoulder and ended a few inches above her butt, his touch sending a shiver down her spine.It aroused him having her naked body in front of him like this made his hands itch to worship every inch of her.It made goose bumps rise on her skin"These " he w
