Aaron was standing at the corner, thinking about that mannerless girl when His secretary-cum-right hand man came there.

"What?" He snapped at him. Marcus swallowed in fear and cleared his throat before speaking. "The streets are whispering about the bond between Flavio and De Lucas consliegier's daughter. The soldiers of many important cities are talking about Flavio being pure…"

Aaron's icy glare stopped Marcus from speaking further. "Is this the general opinion of the soldiers?"

Marcus shook his head. "No. But the words are making circles. No one is speaking openly but they liked how Flavio still respected the traditions of Cosa Nostra. He could have married anyone but he remained loyal to his roots and married an Italian Woman. The words of mutiny are strong in your uncle and Flavio's cities the most. But your uncle is not waving in favour of them. Unlike Flavio he is loyal to Our Capo and you."

"Flavio…" Aaron gritted. "Tell the other cities' underbosses to keep their soldiers in line," He ordered Marcus and clenched his fist tightly.

Aaron looked around and forced himself to smile coldly as He watched Flavio's mother smiling at his newly wedded son and his wife.

"I hate these snakes!"

Aaron sighed tiredly when He heard his mother Olivia's voice as she walked to him.

"Everyone is a snake in this place, Mother," He commented. Olivia rested her hand on Aaron's shoulder.

"Aaron, Think about Rosalina. She is a safe bet. I know you don't like her but sometimes we have to sacrifice our happiness for bigger things," she said recalling the time when she sacrificed her happiness for the Throne of Cosa Nostra but her father Giovanni tricked her and handed the chair to her husband Ethan. She still couldn't forget the pain she felt by her father and husband's treachery.

Aaron understood his mother's statement and patted her hand. "I won't sacrifice anything, Mother. Not my happiness nor my Cosa Nostra. I won't be like you," He stated and removed her hand from his forearm.

Olivia squinted her gaze. "I don't want history to repeat itself, Aaron. I love Riccardo like a brother but Cosa Nostra was my birthright and now it's yours. Not Flavio's."

"And it will be mine soon. I won't allow anyone to take away my birthright. I will be The Capo dei Capi of Cosa Nostra, King of the Underworld of New York City." He gave a curt nod to his mother and headed to his brother without another word.

Aaron went to the bar area. All this marriage talk left a bad taste in his mouth which He needed to wash with a strong drink. Asher smirked seeing his brother there. "Bad mood Eldy, are you going to kill someone."

Aaron glared at him and Asher looked down, understanding that Aaron was angry about something Asher knew better than to provoke him when he is this angry. His eyes went to a blonde who was staring at him. Asher smirked and went to her leaving his brother alone.

“Quite enjoying my reception huh, dear cousin?” Flavio jumped into the bar seeing Aaron and commented.

Aaron gritted his jaw. He took a sip of whiskey and kept the glass loosely in his hold. He forced his anger to bow its rearing head. Aaron raised his brows.

"Enjoying what? This Drama?" He roamed his eyes around to gesture at the wedding reception.

"Now you are being mean, Aaron. We are cousins and you should be happy for me. I did what you couldn't, I strengthened our famiglia's status and power by marrying into a strong Italian family. De Luca's are strong."

Aaron didn't give any reaction except for staring at Flavio's face. "She is pure Italian but of course you won't understand the meaning of this, right Cousin?"

Flavio was goading him but Aaron's calm features were making him mad.

“De Lucas will stand beside me now…"

The unspoken threat made Aaron put the glass on the counter and smiled coldly. "A dog needs an army to look strong. A lion doesn't, Flavio. He doesn't need to look strong because He knows about his power and status. A Lion is a born king just like Me," He stood up and stepped forward.

"I don't need to marry a girl to gain respect because I have earned it. People call me Velenoso for a reason, dear cousin. Remember what it meant," He warned Flavio with a smile and patted his cheek in warning, making Flavio jerk back in dismay.

Aaron chuckled before walking to Asher who was flirting with the blonde. “Where is Mother?” He asked Asher who shrugged his shoulders not knowing. He resumed his talk with the blonde.

Rosalina spotted them and walked into their direction with a smirk. Aaron didn't pay any attention to her but Rosalina's eyes were fixed on Aaron only. “My father arranged the dinner next week for this beautiful couple. I hope to see you both there to have some fun.” She said, turning her gaze at Asher who raised his eyebrow at her.

“Well, I don't fancy Italian food much.” He sweetly smiled at her. Rosalina twisted her lips but managed to smile tightly at his direct insult. Aaron didn't need to even answer her. He was calling his father’s number. He wanted to leave from that fucked up reception party to utilise his previous time in his work. But before that He needed to inform his parents for the sake of their reputation.

“Well, we will have other cuisines too.” She said not wanting to be provoked and gestured to the waitress for the drink. The waitress came in their direction and offered them a tray of different beverages.

Asher winked at the beautiful waitress who only blinked at him but cursed him in her mind. She was none other than Bella Ferrari.

Rosalina grabbed her red wine after Asher and his blondie. Aaron was typing something on the phone so He didn't care much. But as a formality, Bella had to ask him so that she could walk out of there as soon as possible.

“Sir, would you like to have a drink?” she asked politely while standing in front of him. That's when Aaron raised his eyes, He was about to deny her but seeing her doe-like eyes waiting for his reply He stood still. She was the girl who cursed him openly but not loudly, she was the girl who dared to look into his eyes with hostility.

In the split second, Aaron's eyes narrowed at her face, the innocent face but He knew better.

On the other hand, Bella was awestruck seeing the man in front of her. That was not some ordinary man. His attractive, sharp and hard face features, perfect model-like physique fitted in a black tuxedo, appreciable height and his dark and intimidating Aura made her understood that He is from some high authority. But his odd intense stare at her made Bella uneasy. When He didn't answer She instantly scanned his look. His brown blonde hair, square and chiselled jaws with light stubble on it, firm lips, straight nose and his intense grey eyes framed by dark and thick lashes were looking straight into her soul.

Grey eyes!

And that's when it hit her like a thunderbolt. The pervert!

Bella slightly widened her eyes but kept a straight face. He was the jerk who was sneakily peeking at her when she was changing into her uniform. Rosalina observed their staring session and wondered. Aaron never looked at her like this non stop and He was staring at this low class waitress like He knew her for ages. It bruised her already swollen ego even more. She wanted nothing but snatch the eyes of that cheap waitress.

“Will you stand here like a clown?” Rosalina snapped, pulling her out of her thoughts. Bella flushed in embarrassment at her insult. As soon as Aaron grabbed the glass of drink, she ran off like her ass was on fire. Asher chuckled at her behaviour.

“Do you know her?” Rosalina asked Aaron who didn't give a damn to her interrogation but looked in the direction of Bella where she disappeared in the audience. He had this urge to confront her but Bella didn't want to do anything with him. Apparently, she didn't want to mess with these high-class people in her life.

Rosaline flared her nose silently when He didn't answer her.

Bella was fanning herself, walking to the corner, she was feeling too hot. That man was sending chills to her body, she felt like He was killing her with his grey eyeballs silently.

“Bella, what the hell are you doing here? serve the guests there.” Her captain, Peter snapped when he watched her cooling herself in the corner.

Bella startled and nodded her head like crazy. She cursed herself for being caught again. She filled her tray with the drinks again and walked to the side where she was in no mood to walk.

The group of wolves, The groom and his army. She walked to them professionally with a polite smile and served them the drinks.

“Quite a nice chick!” one of the men commented seeing her up and down. No doubt, Bella was a beauty and she knew it. That's why she merely wears makeup not to attract useless attention from those hungry wolves. But she didn't know that even her bare face without any makeup looks like an angel. Her crystal clear glowing skin made the man attracted to her but she had turned many men down.

The group of men chuckled seeing her getting uncomfortable. Bella didn't say anything, she was waiting for them to either get the drinks or deny her. Flavio was looking at her with hungry eyes.

“What's your name, beautiful?” One blonde man, a friend of Flavio, asked her.

Bella blinked her eyes not understanding if to answer them or not. She contemplated it.

“Are you mute?” Flavio asked with narrowed eyes. He didn't like women being hard to get. He was one impatient bastard.

“Bella. It's Bella, Sir.” She replied not mentioning her surnames. She didn't want to lose her job and moreover they seemed dangerous to her with those tattoos on their bodies. She wanted to get over with serving and leave the place.

“Indeed, a beautiful name for a beautiful girl.” that cousin smirked again.

“Would you mind spending a passionate night with me tonight, you won't be disappointed, girl.” He asked shamelessly. Bella wanted to smash his head to the glass table but kept her calm.

“I'm sorry, Sir but I'm married.” That's the reply she always gives to fly them away. But they laughed.

“So what ? It doesn't stop you having fun. Look at our groom, He got married today, if his lifestyle changes just because of getting an extra piece on his list?” He gestured towards Flavio who smirked. And Bella felt pity for the bride. These bastards can never change. She was not interested in the talk so she decided to walk away.

“Perception matters, Sir. I will take my leave in case I need to serve others too.” Bella kept her politeness.

“Why so eager, Baby girl?” and that's when Bella felt a spank on her butt. It cracked her patience. She clenched her face and pinched her eyes. To hell with this job where you lose your only important thing. Your self-respect!

Bella sucked in a deep breath and turned around to look at the bastard who indecently touched her but when she looked into the sharp Grey eyes, her fury turned tenfold. So He wanted to humiliate her. That pervert bastard!

And Without thinking even a second, she raised her hand and slapped his face, Hard and rebuked him with a similar hard word. “Bastard!"

  • The Italian Bride of the Mafia King   Epilogue

    After Twenty years—"Taking back New York City?" Mikhail looked at his Pakhan questionably. He was surprised at the sudden demand of his boss. "But Velenoso rules over it, Pakhan."A pair of ocean-blue eyes stared at Mikhail. He blinked leisurely at Mikhail and smirked."Russians used to rule over it once. Now I want New York back under Bratva again. Velenoso has ruled over it enough, now I want my city back, Mikhail." He stated with authority in his tone and rage in his eyes.Mikhail swallowed the thickness in his throat. "It wouldn't be easy to take it back from him. He is committed to his Cosa Nostra and for this, He even killed your uncle years ago!""It's a bloody revenge, Mikhail. He snatched my uncle, my father's beloved brother from him. So it's only fair if I snatch something dear to him.”He stood up from his chair and walked to the huge glass window before looking at the dark sky with considerable vicious thoughts running in his mind. "Who does He love the most?" He asked

    Bella turned around, shielding her daughter from the bullet. She shrieked when the gunshots sounded. She waited for the pain but she felt nothing. The bullet hit the wall beside her. But then the more bullets kept showering, she heard screams and curses, the loud voice of bullets made Aira's cries grow louder and louder. She didn't turn around and kept praying to Mother Mary to protect her daughter even at the cost of her life.Cara shrieked in horror when the bullet went through Killian's arm instead of hitting Bella. Killian cursed loudly as pain shot through his nerves, the gun fell down from his hand. The bullets kept showering and before he could even blink another bullet hit him in the shoulder. "Fuck!" He cursed, crouching down. His men shot back and tried to protect Killian but they all fell one by one as the bullets never stopped showering from all sides. He looked at Cara who stood there numb. "You bitch, do something!" Cara looked at the gun before her. She snarled once

    "Aria! Sabby!" Bella woke up with the nightmare. She looked around to find her daughter and sister but was shocked to find herself in the bed alone. Asher moved to her immediately. "Bella, you need to calm down, the doctor said you got unconscious because of stress." He said holding a glass of water for her. Bella looked at him with teary eyes. "They took Sabby and Aria." Asher controlled his emotions and nodded. "I know. Eldy left to bring them back. He found out about the person behind the attack."Bella's eyes sparkled in hope. "He did? Who kidnapped them!" She demanded.Asher sighed. "Riccardo."Bella was stunned. "Your uncle?""Yes. We all are shocked but you don't have to worry. Eldy will come back soon with Aria and Sabrina. Trust Eldy. He will make everything fine."Bella looked at him for a long time before nodding at him. "I do."Asher smiled. "Don't worry, let me bring you a cup of coffee. You will feel good after it.""No, I don't…""Have it. You will feel good," he sai

    "What do you mean they took them, Eldy?" Asher asked his brother who was staring at the dark sky. Asher came running to Aaron's penthouse the moment he got to know about the attack on Sabrina and Bella. The doctor came just after him to check on Bella. He wanted to see Sabrina but his brother was not answering him. "I am asking something Eldy! Where is Sabrina?”Asher yelled at his brother in anger. "They took them both!" Aaron snapped, turning around and facing his brother. "They took Aria and Sabrina!!" He yelled back, his cold grey eyes were screaming in anger too.Asher stiffened. "Aria?" Aaron squeezed his eyes. For the second time in his life, He felt dread. The first time was when Maria died. "They have my daughter. I felt like a fucking failure for not being able to protect her and my family. She trusted me and I…What if something happened to Aria or Sabrina. Bella will never forgive me. Hell! I will not be able to forgive myself."Asher walked to his brother and rested his

    Aria started crying too when she saw Sabrina crying. "Sabby…." Bella tried to soothe her daughter but she kept crying and stretched her arms to go to Sabrina.Bella felt bad for not being able to calm her sister or daughter's cries. "Sabby. Please stop crying. You don't have to feel like this," she caressed her sister's arms while bouncing Aria in her other arm."Okay, tell me. Do you still have feelings for him?" Bella asked her sister. Sabrina swallowed and wiped her tears, averting her eyes and looking in another direction. She felt stupid for crying over Asher like this. She sighed and forced herself to control her raging emotions. "Sabrina?" Bella whispered but Aria was still crying so she turned her attention to her daughter. "Please stop crying, Ari." She begged her daughter. Sabrina squeezed her eyes and forced a smile onto her face before taking Aria from Bella."Sabby is not crying anymore. You should also stop crying, choco pie." Aria blinked innocently, her lips stretch

    "You wanted to talk?" Asher asked Sabrina when she was patting Aria to sleep. She raised her eyes and nodded. This was the time for her to take her revenge. "Yes," she said, "I wanted to talk to you."Asher smiled at his niece and touched her small fingers before meeting Sabrina's eyes. "I am listening." He said, his eyes gleaming as he looked at her. "I am ready to be with you again but you have to prove your love for me, Asher."Asher beamed. "I am ready to give up on my life for you, Sabrina. Tell me what can I do to prove my love for you?"Sabrina nodded. "Give up on your brother and come with me. Leave your brother and quit this crime world. I don't want you to meet your brother again. So tell me, Asher Knight, are you ready to leave your brother for me?"Asher was stunned. Did he hear her right? She was not asking him to leave his Eldy forever, right?“Sabrina. I love you, you know that. My feelings are real for you. Yes, I was wrong two years ago but now I have changed. I am t
