Aria put down the burger she was holding in her hand and looked over at Adrian with quiet a concerned look on her face, thinking he looked lost in thought.“You can tell me handsome, I won’t tell anyone” she said quietly, after she realised that something was definitely on his mind.Adrian took her hand and kissed her over her knuckles softly,“There was a raid at one of our hotels and they found some illegal substances. I don’t know how they got there or who did it, but I’m sure it’s someone who works for me” he said quietly with a serious look. Aria felt her pretty eyes widen as she listened,“That’s really bad, was it one of the hotels here or in another city?” she asked as she turned slightly and faced him better. Adrian looked down at her,“Here” he said before he ate some more of his burger. Aria held onto his arm and gave it a gentle squeeze,“I’m sure you’ll get to the bottom of it, you always do” she said with a small smile, thinking now it all made sense to why he had been
Two weeks had passed, and it was now the day of Aria’s planned c-section. Adrian and her and had arrived at the hospital nice and early, feeling all sort of different emotions. The doctors showed them both to the operating room and ran them through everything before they made Aria sign some consent forms. “This is it” she said to Adrian quietly as she quickly signed the papers. Adrian took hold of her free hand and gave it a gentle comforting squeeze,“How are you feeling?” he asked as he slipped a few strands of her hair behind her ear, thinking she looked beautiful, even though she wasn’t wearing much makeup. Aria wrapped her fingers around his and looked up at him,“I feel a little scared” she said quietly as she shivered slightly, not knowing what to expect as it was her first-time giving birth. Adrian kissed her on the forehead softly and looked down at her,“No need to be beautiful, I’ll be right here with you” he said before he gave her a tight one-armed hug, thinking she lo
The senior doctor closed the door after himself and looked at Adrian with a serious concerned look on his face,“I’m sorry to inform you that Miss Silverstone is still unconsciousness. She lost a lot of blood during the surgery, and we don’t have enough of her blood type blood available in this hospital, but don’t worry someone is already on their way over to pick up some more from another hospital nearby” he explained nice and clearly.Adrian listened quietly with a serious look,“The best private hospital in New-York, yet still lacking in the basic necessities” he said before he shook his head lightly, the annoyance clear in his voice. The doctor looked over at him, “These kind of situations are out of our control sir, but don’t worry we are trying our best” he said quickly, thinking he didn’t looked pleased.Adrian looked at him with a serious look,“Best is not good enough, I want her awake and well by the evening” he said quietly yet very clearly, almost like it was a warning. Th
SIX MONTHS LATERThe last six months had passed by very quickly and now it was the end of November. Adrian and Aria had named their little princess Lyla, a named they had both liked. Lyla had light brown curly hair, big, beautiful eyes, and a cute, buttoned nose. She was the cutest little thing ever, who in a very short time had become her parents everything. It was just twelve in the afternoon and Aria was in the kitchen preparing all the food for the evening, with Raj’s help. She had invited both her and Adrian’s family around for thanksgiving dinner and her family were specially flying in from North Carolina.Adrian and her had moved into their perfect family home, a few months ago and it was nothing short of amazing. They had both waited until they found the one that ticked all of the boxes, before they made the big decision of buying it. Raj peeled some potatoes and looked over at Aria as she marinated the whole chickens and hummed along to a song that was playing in the backg
Adrian felt his whole world stop the moment he saw Aria walk down the grand looking staircase. She was wearing a gorgeous deep red coloured velvet dress, that had a halter neck and nicely clung to her body. The dress was short with fur at the bottom and had a sexy cut out design at the chest, that teasingly showed off a hint of her cleavage. “Were you waiting for me?” Aria asked him quietly with a small smile, once she reached the last few steps, thinking she could him feel him undressing her with his sexy eyes. Adrian held out his hand to her and looked up at her pretty face,“Maybe” he said before he helped her off the last step, thinking she looked breath takingly stunning and smelt amazing.She was wearing nice pretty makeup and had some of her hair tied back from the front with left the rest opened, letting it cascade down her back sexily.“You look out of this world beautiful and a little too tempting for my liking” he said in her ear quietly, before he kissed her there softly,
It was almost an hour later, and Adrian and Aria were both sitting side by side inside a cosy dim lit coffee shop, enjoying their hot drinks and each other’s company. “This reminds me of that time in Istanbul when you took me out and we ended up in that cosy little shop that had lanterns scattered all around” Aria said with a small smile as she remembered that day nice and clearly, like it was yesterday. Adrian drank some of his strong coffee and listened to her quietly, thinking they had come a long way from that day.“The one where you wanted to sit a different table and got annoyed at the waitress” he said with a small smirk.Aria rested her head on his shoulder and looked up at him with a small smile,“You can’t blame me, she was flirting with you so shamelessly and you were secretly enjoying it” she said as she snuggled against him, liking the warmth of his body against his. Adrian listened to her quietly,“You got that wrong beautiful, I enjoyed seeing you get jealous, not th
It was two days later, and Aria and her family had arrived in North Carolina late yesterday evening. Adrian had sent both Hunter and Logan with her, two of his most trusted guards or so he thought. He told them to not leave her side and to take turns in guarding her parents house through out the night, as he didn’t want to risk their safety in any way. Aria woke up nice and early in her old bedroom and reached over her bed, expecting Adrian to be there. It took her a moment to realise where she was, before she sat up slightly and tied all of her long hair up in a messy bun. She picked up her phone from the bedside table and realised she had a few unread messages. One was from Adrian and the rest were from Jenna. “Morning beautiful, how are you and my little love? Give her a kiss from me and one to yourself” Adrian’s message read in full words. Aria smiled and read it over a few times, “Morning, we’re both ok, and I will do. How are you? I’m really missing you” she texted back qu
It was the following day and Aria still hadn’t forgot about the note she had received yesterday at the diner. It was just after six in the evening, and she had just finished getting ready for the small dinner that her mum was hosting for all of her uncle, aunts, and cousins, who wanted to see her and Lyla. Aria was wearing a nice fuchsia pink coloured one sleeved dress that nicely hugged her body and showed of both of her legs. She wore white strappy heels, pretty makeup and had styled all of her long hair in loose curls. She finished off with some perfume before she quickly got Lyla ready, thinking even though she had been away from Adrian for only a few days it felt like she hadn’t seen him in ages. After she had finished getting Lyla ready in the same pink coloured dress as hers, she did her hair and added a few small pretty clips in, thinking she looked adorable.“Shall we ring dada and show him what he’s missing?” Aria asked Lyla with a smile as she cuddled her playfully and ki
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
