Aria followed Adrian into the lounge, thinking she had never seen him this angry before. He held onto her wrist a little roughly and looked down at her with a serious look,“Why is she here?” he asked about Lucia as he looked down at her, waiting for her to speak. Aria looked up at him,“Let go of my hand Adrian” she said quietly as she looked up into his dark eyes, that held no emotions. Adrian pulled her closer to him and looked down at her seriously,“I asked you a question, what is she doing here?” he asked quietly yet very clearly. Aria tried to pull her hand out of his but failed miserably.“I invited her over” she said bravely, thinking he looked scary. Adrian shook his head lightly,“Let me guess she’s sold you a sob story and you’ve believed her” he said. Lucia got up from the sofa and looked up at them, thinking now this was fun, seeing them both standing eye to eye. “We can talk about this later, let go of me please” Aria said to Adrian with a serious look, hoping he liste
Aria had taken Adrian’s advice and taken a few days off work to rest her mind and body. It was now Friday, and she had just finished getting ready for a casual outing with Jenna and Miles. They had both wanted to meet Adrian and to her surprise he had agreed to accompany her, but on one condition that she make it up to him later at night. Aria smiled and told him that she would have done anyways as she couldn’t get enough of him as it was. Adrian knew he would have agreed to go with her regardless of the condition, but since he enjoyed teasing her, he had it put it out there and get her reaction.“Are you ready?” he asked her from her his bedroom as he fixed the collars of his fitted polo shirt and looked at himself in the mirror. She had been staying at his place since yesterday and he had to admit it wasn’t easy sleeping in the same bed as her and not fucking her, as she caught up on her sleep. Adrian put on his watch and slowly turned to the sound of her light footsteps, wondering
A week had passed since Adrian had seen Lucia at Aria’s apartment and that had given him enough to prepare a contract for her and pay her an unexpected visit. It was just after nine in the morning when he arrived at her place and walked inside quickly. Lucia smiled,“What a surprise” she said as she ruffled her hair in the hallway mirror and followed him to the living room. She was wearing a black silk nightdress that was nicely showing of her cleavage and baby bump. Adrian looked at her with a serious look with a hand on his chin,“Don’t get used to it” he said coldly. Lucia looked at him smiled,“So, what brings you here? Do you want some coffee?” she asked politely. Adrian looked at her and frowned,“I won’t be here a second longer then I need to be, look through this and sign it” he said before he dropped the file, he was holding on the table in front of her a little hard.Lucia jumped slightly and looked at him, thinking he looked angry.“What is this?” she asked before she picke
Aria patiently waited for Adrian to start his very important video call with another businessman from across the continent, before she started touching herself teasingly, not knowing how he would react, as it was something she had never done before, but wanted to try. She knew how important the call was to him as he had told her about it, but what she wanted to know was if it more important than watching her touch herself, and strip?Adrian had no idea what she was going to put him through as he watched her look through a magazine that she had picked up from the coffee table that was in front of her. “Are you sure you don’t want to eat anything?” he asked with a hand on his chin, thinking she was smiling more than usual, but he didn’t know why. Aria looked up at him,“Yes, very sure” she said with a small, sweet smile that alone was enough to melt his ice-cold heart. Adrian had a feeling she might try to distract him on way or another, but he had no idea what she was capable of doing
It had been over a month since Aria had found out about her pregnancy and hiding it from Adrian was getting harder by the day as she actually had a very small bump now. She had carried on working as normal and didn’t let on how tired she actually felt on some of the flights, even though Adrian did question her here and there as her face gave it away most of the time. It was now the beginning of December and the weather had gotten much colder in New-York. “What are your plans for your birthday this year?” Jenna her friend asked her as she passed her a mug of hot chocolate. Aria took it from her and smiled, “No plans at all, and please no parties this year” she said as she had no energy to celebrate or get dressed up. Jenna sighed, “Why not? We always go full out on our birthdays” she said before she drank some of her hot chocolate. Aria rested her mug on her knee and looked at her, “I know but this year I just want to do something small and intimate” she said with a small smile, as
It was the following day and Aria and Adrian were both on their way to Jared’s house, to meet their new baby girl. Jared was throwing a small party to celebrate her birth and had personally come to Adrian’s office to invite him and Aria both, so there was no way he could say that he didn’t receive the invite, just to avoid going.“You look beautiful” Adrian said to Aria quietly with a serious look as he drove with one hand and rested the other one her bare leg.Aria was wearing a nice pretty pale pink dress, which she had paired with a pair of suede heels. She wore nice pretty makeup and no other jewellery apart from the necklace Adrian had got for her.The dress was slightly puffy from the front and Aria couldn’t be more grateful as it disguised her small baby bump perfectly.A few days ago, she had booked herself another scan to see how her little babies were doing but knew that with each day that passed it was getting more and more harder to keep her pregnancy hidden.“Thank you, y
Aria and Adrian were both one of the last few people to arrive at Jared’s house. Jared welcomed them inside and thanked them for coming fashionably late rather than not coming at all.“Congratulations on your little one and sorry for being late, the traffic was crazy” Aria explained with a small smile as she met him with a quick hug. Jared hugged her back and looked at her and Adrian,“No need to apologise come on in” he said before he stepped aside and lead them both out to the garden where the party planners had set up everything nicely.Adrian rested a hand on Aria’s lower back and helped her carry some of the gifts that she chosen for the baby inside. He had given her his card and told her to get anything she liked as he wasn’t good with gifts. Aria had prepared a few different hampers, one just for the baby, one for Jared’s wife Brianna and one for both the couple that was filled with chocolates and other luxurious gifts. “Everything looks so pretty” Aria said to Adrian with a s
Aria held onto the side of her seat and looked out of the small window of Adrian’s private jet as it rolled down the runaway and landed in her home city New Carolina.“We made it” Raya her younger sister said with a smile as she quickly took off her seatbelt. Aria looked over at her, thinking this was it. Adrian had sent Hunter with her and along with one of his very own bodyguards, as a lot of people knew who she was and what she looked like, and he couldn’t take any risks.“We did” Aria said with a small smile as she put on her jacket. Hunter got up from his seat and looked at Aria, thinking once again he couldn’t travel with her alone.Logan the other bodyguard stepped out of the small plane first before he helped both Aria and Raya down and lead the way to the sleek black car that was waiting for them on the tarmac. Aria put on her sunglasses and walked past the small group of reporters and photographers who were standing in the far distance with their cameras ready.“Is it true y
FOURTEEN YEARS LATER. “This cake is delicious mom” Aria and Adrian’s youngest daughter Angelina said as she sat at the counter and licked her fingers. Aria was busy cooking in the kitchen as today was the day Chase was returning home after spending the last few years in the middle east where he had been busy setting up some new hotels and overlooking some other new projects. If anyone thought that Adrian had done a good job at taking the Delgado name to the top than they clearly didn’t know what Chase was capable of, as not only did he take the company to the highest it had ever been, but he had also expanded it out worldwide, making sure every person of status and power out there knew their name. Adrian had raised the perfect son, who was not only intelligent and loyal, but also extremely dangerous when he needed to be. The Delgado’s were all looking forward to his return and to celebrate Aria had invited all of her and Adrian’s close friends and family over for dinner as she
Aria and Adrian both flew over to North Carolina as quickly as they could and much to their dismay, they found out that Weston had suffered from a fatal gunshot wound to his chest with the bullet narrowly missing his vital organs. He had survived but was put in a medical induced coma to rest his body and mind. The next twenty-four hours were very critical, and all the close family members were told to prepare themselves for the worst, as his current statistics weren’t looking very good. Adrian held Aria in his arms and tried his best to console her as she cried uncontrollably, “Wake up dad please, we can’t lose you” she said as she took hold of Weston’s hand and kissed it softly, feeling helpless and weak. Nate was hugging Gabriella who was upset but trying her best to be as strong as she could. “Everything will be ok mom, dad will pull through” he said confidently before he kissed her on the top of her head softly. Adrian had called all the best surgeons of the city to tr
Aria felt her pretty eyes widen the moment she saw both Adrian and Hunter go for each other and throw punches. Hunter was faster but Adrian was more rougher,“You want to know the truth, here I’ll tell you everything, yes it was me who got someone to kill your mother, I was also the one who got rid of Rosalina and the reason I took up the job of becoming your woman’s bodyguard was because I wanted her dead. I wanted her to suffer the way she made me suffer, its only a matter of time before she will do the same with you as she did to Rylan” Hunter said to Adrian loudly as they both fought each other to the ground. Adrian punched him on the nose as hard as he could and watched the blood splatter out from it, “I should have never trusted you and let you in to my circle, Aria was right about you from the very beginning, you were nothing but a waste of space” he said before he punched him again, not giving him enough time to fight back. Aria walked over to them both and looked down at A
It was two hours later, and Aria was patiently waiting for Hunter to arrive. She took a deep breath and quietly paced around the back garden, thinking as much as she didn’t want to see him or touch him, she needed to do this for herself and all her and Adrian’s loved ones who had suffered at his hands. She had rang him and told him to come over as she wanted to talk to him about something important. Hunter was a bit hesitant at first but agreed when she told him that Adrian wasn’t home, and she could do with some company. He knew it sounded too good to be true but decided to go anyways as he had been meaning to get her alone and what better way to do it then at her own house. Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment her phone beeped, and she realised he was here. She was looking out at the swimming pool in front of her when she heard footsteps.She turned around slowly and looked at Hunter who was dressed more casually than normal. He walked over to her and looked down at her wit
It was the following morning and Aria and Adrian had woken up nice and early, with last night fresh on their minds. Aria had stripped the entire bedding and put some new one on, before she aired the room and made sure no evidence of their wild night was left behind. Adrian buttoned up his shirt in the mirror and looked over at her as she smoothed out the new bedsheet, his eyes falling on her behind, thinking he was surprised she was still walking after being on her knees for the most part of last night. She still couldn’t look him in the eyes without blushing and he knew it was because of what he did. He quickly fixed his hair before he put on his jacket and tied his watch around his wrist, thinking a few more times and she’ll get used to it and there was a lot more that he wanted to do with her, with her consent obviously. “You done cleaning?” he asked her quietly, thinking in under an hour she had made the entire room look good as new and smell nice and refreshing. Aria turn
Adrian walked into Aria’s old bedroom and quietly locked the door after himself, thinking he had only seen her room once before, but he didn’t remember it looking as feminine as it did. It was his first time staying at her folks house and he wasn’t sure how he felt about it as he felt pretty out of place, although her whole family had been very welcoming. He took of his jacket and shoes before he walked further into the dim lit room and stopped when his eyes fell on Aria who was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for him patiently. She was wearing a sexy nude and red coloured lingerie set that nicely clung to her body and showed of plenty of her skin.Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment both of their eyes met, and she felt him undress her in his mind. Adrian undid a few more buttons of his shirt and walked over to her quickly, thinking she looked too fucking tempting. She had left all of her long hair opened and was wearing a nice sun kissed body lotion all over her bo
It was a week later, and Aria and Adrian had just arrived in North Carolina where they were going to stay for a night and then head back to New-York city.They were going to leave Lyla with Aria’s parents for a few days, as the next few days were going to be very crucial for them both, and they wanted her to be as safe and protected as she possibly could. The private jet landed at a small private airport and the family quickly disembarked the plane. Adrian held Lyla in his arms and gently held her against his chest, not wanting any of the paparazzi or photographers to take any pictures of her as he believed she was just too precious for the whole world to see. Aria slipped on her dark shades and followed him down, as the warm evening breeze gently brushed against her face and reminded her that she was finally home, in the city where she had spent most of her life. Jared followed them both quietly, along with a few of Adrian’s other bodyguards who had travelled with them on this sho
Adrian was busy smoking his cigarette when Chase approached him from behind and wrapped an arm around his neck from behind as tightly as he could, taking him by surprise. “What do you want now?” he asked him quietly, thinking he was probably just messing around like he always did. Chase didn’t let go of him and squeezed on his neck slightly, hoping he got the hint. “Don’t move” he said before he pulled out the knife from behind him and held it against his neck, thinking what he was about to do felt very wrong, but he needed to do it anyways. Adrian put out his cigarette and remained as calm as possible, as it wasn’t the first time someone had tried to kill him.“Are you in your right mind?” he asked with a serious look, thinking he could easily get out of his tight hold, but he was going to make him believe that he was doing a good job at holding him in place. Chase held the sharp knife against the base of his neck and looked down at him angrily,“I’ve been waiting for this momen
A few days had passed and both Aria and Adrian had been working hard on finding any dirt they could on Hunter. Adrian had kept him at an arm’s length and made sure he didn’t get too close to him or any of his loved ones. Everyone had suffered enough already, and he wasn’t going to make the same mistake again and let him back into his circle, not after what he had done. He had paid a visit to the hotel where Aria and him had stayed a few weeks ago and like expected had found out that Hunter had bribed one of the security guards there with money, just so that he didn’t open his mouth and expose what he had done with Aria. Adrian made sure he was given a copy of the footage from inside the hotel suite before he left and much to his relief, he was glad to find out that Hunter didn’t sleep with Aria. He told Aria straightaway as he knew how much it had been eating her up from the inside since the day she had found out. Aria was glad that Hunter didn’t take advantage of her, although h
