Mani's Pov

"Don’t let Victoria bother you." Zoey says when we walk back into her room.

"I’m not bothered." I said, which was nothing but a big lie.

I was indeed bothered. I tried not to think of what had happened in the dining room, but the image of Victoria's hand on Sin’s lap clouded my mind.

We seemed to have escaped whatever obstacle had been in our way in Paris with Jason not here, but now I had Victoria to handle here.

Just when will I be free from all this drama?

I was certain I was on the list of Victoria's most hated people, maybe because of Sin, but I was certain there was more to it.

" See!. You say you aren’t bothered, but your mind seems to be far away." Zoey says, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"It’s nothing." I said, giving her a fake smile, though I was certain that I looked constipated. "I better call it a night; it’s late and I want to rest. I haven’t really had the time to get a good night's sleep."

"Sure," she says, but I could see the worried look on her face.

    Mani’s Pov.It was getting late and time for our date. I was nervous, standing in front of the mirror as I took in my appearance.I was dressed in a blue gown that fell below my knee with a black heel, and I packed my hair in a high bun to get the hair out of my face. There was little to no make-up on my face, since I wasn’t really a fan of such. After taking a satisfying look at myself in the mirror, I made my way out of the room.When I got to Sin, he was on his phone, not paying any attention to me, so I made the decision to observe him. He was dressed in a black suit and pants, a white shirt, a black tie, and a pair of black shoes that appeared to be their first ever appearances in the sunlight.I could not understand what he was saying since he was speaking quickly in Italian, but as soon as he turned to face me and smiled, my stomach was filled with butterflies and my heart melted."I will get back to you later; right now, I have something important to do," he said in a threaten

    Sin’s Pov."There is always something that could be done." I was so fucking pissed off with myself.I tried to come up with a plan or something while tapping my fingers against my leg. Without any advice on how to win Mani over, what the hell was I going to do when I needed to make her feel something for me?"I'd like to know that I'm not required to share you with another woman," she remarked.I paused in answering as the waiter chose the wrong time to bring us some food. I wanted to get to the bottom of her doubt in me, letting her know that I wanted no one but her and making my intentions known. Instead, I gritted my teeth and smiled, pretending like everything was okay. It wasn’t.Once we were alone, I stared into her eyes. "I’m used to women wanting me. I'm not trying to sound arrogant or anything; I'm just stating facts," I said.She grinned. "I know. I have witnessed how women treat you. It must be just awful.""I've never had to put much effort into getting what I want."Man

    I hadn’t left Mani’s side. I couldn’t when she was lying here, barely breathing. Her private room had a small bathroom. The nurses and Luca were the ones bringing me food, but otherwise, I kept my ass in the chair, only getting up for bathroom breaks.The first twenty-four hours came and went, but she didn’t wake up. The doctor didn’t seem overly concerned, which I didn’t like. I wasn’t a doctor, but people shouldn’t just stay asleep. They should fucking wake up.Reaching for her hand, I pressed a kiss to her knuckles. At least she felt warm to me. "Mani, love. Open your eyes for me, baby."She didn’t flutter.No sign.No movement."She’ll wake up when she’s ready," Luca said from behind me, and I turned slightly to look at him."Were are you able to find out what happened?"Luca sighed, taking a step forward. "It is just like we suspected; Lorenzo has nothing to do with it.""Then who?" I asked. My voice was deep and void of any emotion."That is the thing, Sin." He was silent for a

    It's been two weeks since we came back from the hospital, and it's been two weeks since I finally returned from the hospital and have been treated like a baby, not by Sin but by Zoey.They both kept trying to do everything for me and refused to let me raise a finger, which was both nerve-wracking and nice.I had been locked in the room all day, mostly due to the fact that I had been reading a novel and lost track of time.Things with Sin and I have been great; he pampers me all the time, and slowly the mask of a ruthless leader he wore slips away when we are together.Every day with Sin revealed a new side of him: that he was capable of empathy, kindness, and integrity. We both joked and laughed like two normal human beings, and whatever I requested of him, he made sure to carry it out. But was it enough to forget about everything and give up my family and freedom?The dark and malicious part of him still existed, strong and dominant, even when he tried so hard to hide it. I still saw

    The day was going great; right now I'm in Sin's office reading a romance novel while Sin works.We have been here for quite some time now and have hardly really said anything to each other as we focused on the task ahead.I was already tired of reading and wanted to do something else. Lifting my head, I looked at Sin and found him still focused on some documents in front of him. I was bored and hungry.Letting out a yawn, I tried to gain his attention and failed miserably. Not wanting to accept defeat, I decided to try again and let out a loud yawn."What seems to be the problem, Amore?" I grinned when he finally spoke, happy to finally get his attention."I'm bored," I whined dramatically.Sin rolled his eyes before he answered, "I thought you were reading a book."I sighed loudly, trying to make a point. "I was, but now I'm bored.""So what do you want to do?" This caused me to jump with joy, and I stalked toward Sin."Can I go outside? I haven't been outside for a month. Please ple

    I was walking through the dining room on the way to the kitchen when I heard a loud cry, making me hasten my footstep. I rushed in to see Victoria gripping tightly onto Zoey's neck as she cried, stretching onto Victoria's hand."What the hell, Victoria?" I yelled, walking over and pushing her away from Zoey, who had begun gasping for breath. "Are you trying to kill her?""This has nothing to do with you." Victoria sneers. "Carry on your way, since you are Sin’s precious whore."I looked at Zoey to see if she was okay. Her face was still red, but she was breathing well. "Are you okay?" I asked, concerned."I’m fine; don’t worry." She groans out I turned my attention back to Victoria, glaring at her. "What gives you the right to hurt Zoey, uh...”Victoria lets out a sinister laugh, giving me a dead stare. "You both sure do have a lot of nerve, don’t you?.” "What?" I asked, surprised." Victoria I know you are angry, but you can’t seriously blame Mani for what happened to Fabian. She

    I was in the library, sitting close to the window as I flipped the pages of the book. It has been a month and two weeks since I got shot, and thankfully, my injury has gotten better and is healing really well. The downside was I wasn’t allowed to go out and have tried pleading with Sin, but he was just being hot-headed and freaking stubborn.Victoria and I have crossed paths a couple of times, and every time, I’m always met with a glare, though she doesn’t say anything. But I can tell that whatever hatred she has for me seems to grow, and at times like this, I wish Samantha were here.A footstep snapped me out of my thoughts, and I turned to see Sin walking over me with a smile on his face.He was looking impossibly handsome in yet another perfectly cut suit. Well, shirt and pants. He had forgone the jacket. I almost wished for the jacket because the shirt left so much to the imagination about his manly shape.Broad, thick shoulders; arms bulging with muscles, but not too much. He wor

    I was woken up by a ticklish feeling that felt more like small kisses being trailed on my cheek, lips, and neck. I moved, trying to get away from the person while I snuggled closer to the sheets.I expected the feeling to stop, but it just continued, and this time it was even more intense than before. I opened my eyes slowly due to the sun shining through. I turned to find the culprit to my discomfort and was met with a shirtless Sin laying next to me with a grin on his handsome face."Happy birthday, Amore!" He whispered, pecking my lips.I smiled at him, lifting my hands up to hold both sides of his cheek. I brought him closer, kissed his lips, and turned to the other side to continue my beautiful sleep.A hand strapped onto my shoulder, shaking me, and I was turned back around. Groggily opening my eyes again, I looked at Sin, waiting for him to explain why he was disrupting my sleep."Are you just going to go back to sleep?" he asked, baffled."Yeah," I stated in a matter-of-fact t

    Samantha and AlexanderI was feeling devastated, and I couldn't help but blame myself for what had happened to Mani. If only I had not gone out this morning, if only I had kept to my routine and brought her meal up to her room like I usually did these past few days, then she wouldn’t have gotten kidnapped. especially not when she was pregnant.No..None of this would have happened if only I had given her the chance to explain when she first pleaded with me. Maybe then we would have figured out who was betraying us, and now we had to work faster at finding her before something bad happened.Sighing, I swing my legs, which were deep inside the pool water, while wiping the tears from my face. I couldn’t remember the last time I had cried this much. Was it those times when I struggled to stay alive as my father carried on with his assault, or the time he...Shaking the thought off my head, I try not to think about the past, knowing it would bring nothing but pain and nightmares."You have

    Athena And LorenzoI could be doing anything with the rest of my day, probably watching Netflix and chilling, if I was up for a bit of fun, I could always go clubbing. But that wasn’t the case tonight; instead, I was being prepped for a ball I wished not to attend.Only if there was a way to escape having to attend and watch those pretentious fuckers pretend to get along with each other."Do you really need me there?" I asked, letting out yet another sigh."Of course I do," Bella, my childhood best friend, responded, giving me a pleading look. "I can’t do this by myself; it's torture having to go there and pretend to care. I need you there, Athena.""Why don’t you just skip this year's ball? I’m sure your parents won't mind."Bella sighed exasperatedly. "I wish I could, but my dad is too stubborn to listen to reasons, he is running for a political position and wishes I would accompany him since my brother can’t attend this year. I'm really hating the fact that he had to go on a busine

    Luca and StephanieI gulped down my drink and set the glass back on the table. I took a deep breath and then raised my hand to signal the bartender."Another shot," I said.He frowned. "I believe you have had way too much for the night, don’t you think so?"I shook my head quickly, but stopped when it made me feel a bit dizzy."No...pe, another shot."I thought it was wonderful that he continued to display care, but after I patiently waited, he simply groaned and went to get my drink.In the end, his worry wasn't going to help me much. I also knew how to control my alcohol intake while always being the good girl. I was a little tipsy, but not at all intoxicated.After a while, I was certain I had had a little too much to drink, but I still wasn't intoxicated enough.I need to head back to my home; now that Mani is touring the world, the apartment we shared for nearly five years feels empty.It’s been three months since she left, but I still haven’t found a roommate I feel comfortable

    We had woken up ages ago, and did a little bit of morning exercise. If you get what I mean. Right now, we were sitting outside. Well, Sin was sitting on a chair with me on his lap. We were both enjoying the wonderful view of the ocean as well as the fill of the warm air against our skin. Sin kissed my shoulder, bringing my attention to him. He held my head, pulling me to his never ending kisses. I could never get tired of this. He pulled away, smirking at my red stained face."I wonder how the babies are, I miss them already." I say, resting my head on his shoulder."Don't worry about them, they are safe. I know my mom and your aunt will take good care of them. My mom adores her grandchildren a lot, same as your aunt." Sin runs my back softly."I know, but still" Tears formed around my eyes and I blinked a few times, trying to stop them from falling down."Amore, it's only for three weeks then you can see them again. We don't know when we will ever get the chance to spend time alone

    "I don't get why you refuse to tell me where we are going. I feel like we have been walking for hours. " i heard Sin chuckled softly, as he kept on leading me to heaven knows where. My eyes were blindfolded, making it hard to know where we were" patient amore. Besides, it's only been three minutes since we got out of the car. "I scoffed." Yeah, but I have been blindfolded throughout the ride.""so impatient, amore. Few more steps Mrs. Violenta."I grinned, liking the fact we were officially married.I squealed when I felt him lift me up bridal style, with the warm weather surrounding me. I felt giddy and couldn't wait for him to take off the blindfold.I felt my feet touch a wooden floor and the cloth wrapped around my eyes slowly coming loose. I gasp at the view of the beach in front, watching the waves move the water. Though it was dark, the moonlight shone on the water, enhancing it beauty and making it more enchanting.It was fucking gorgeous."Welcome to Maldives" Sin says, a s

    Today was the day of the wedding. I was finally getting married to Sin. It feels so surreal, like I can't believe it. I was a nervous wreck, and there was nothing I could do to ease my nerves. This was a happy occasion, but at the same time I felt scared. I couldn't wait to call him my husband, and that brought a smile to my face. Right now I was sitting on the bed with Aurelia in my hands, feeding her while I watched her silently. I had already fed Marcello and given him to Sin; he wanted Marcello to dress up with the men.It's been two months and three days since I gave birth to them, and I couldn't be happier looking down at my beautiful baby girl; her blue eyes sparkle just like mine. Her features were like Sin's; she had his long lashes and brows. I knew she was going to grow up into a beautiful girl. I noticed that she was done, so I stood up from the bed, trying to burp her before putting her down on the bed.The door opened, and Samantha, Stephanie, and Athena walked in. "It's

The rest of the family had gone home earlier to get freshened up, they had no clue yet and I told the doctor not to tell them. I had asked my aunt and Sin to go home and freshen up as well, after a lot of persuasion my aunt agreed to go, wish I could say the same about Sin.This man was filled with all kinds of stubbornness.I heard a soft knock at the door, it opened slowly and I saw Serena, Samantha, Stephanie and Alexander walk in first followed by Athena, Amelia and Carson."Hey. " Serena said in a hushed tone."Where is the baby? " Stephanie asked.Before Sin and I could answer, the door pulled open and a nurse walked in with one baby in her arms. She walked towards me, placing the baby in my hands. I looked down

Sin was by my side, helping me up from my seat."It's going to be okay Mani, remain calm. How far apart are your contractions." Amelia asked."I'm not sure, but I think 15 minutes apart.

I took little steps with Sin holding onto my hand."we need to get everything you need, I will text Mateo to bring them to the hospital. " He gave my hand to his mom, bringing out his phone. He typed feverously on his phone.I felt a hand on my chin, making me look away from Sin. It was Serena, she had a smile on her face which made me relax a little bit."follow my lead Mani.
