Chapter 20Allesandro"You bastard, how could you be so cruel to her?" I slapped Shelton so hard that blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. "I had no fucking business to touch her, my boss required her and I was supposed to take her to Dubai where my Sheikh lives, but you and her brother made my job impossible." Charles who stood beside me punched him on his face. "You wanted my sister, you need to cross me before you have her."I took out the belt from around my waist and whipped him. Blood sprinkled on my face with the devilish strike but my temper wasn't satiating. His mouth was now covered in blood. Charles pulled him out of the chair holding his collar and ploughed a blow in his stomach. "You thought of using my sister? How dare you even think of that? Come on have me before you have her in a one plus one offer." I laughed aloud. Charles had a comical sense even when roaring in temper.Shelton vomitted blood and his eyes were dropping. Pulling the hairs on his scalp I dashed
Chapter 21EdithI walked out of the bedroom getting angry on Sandro to sit on a sofa of the living room. Why does no one in my family understand my feelings? Facing my dad after all the foolish placades I pulled was getting me a shiver of fear. I did not know when my eyes have gone closed and how I reached back to bedroom but no sooner I open my eyes I feel strong hands supporting me to a muscled chest.Sandro brought me back to the bedroom though I have no idea how and when. As I stir in his embrace enveloped in his enchanting scent of hue and lemon he kisses my head and leapt his eyes open in a untold consolation. "Don't worry Sweet Cakes, I grant you a wish today. No one from your family is going to scold you irrespective of the crazy sketches you drew with your good for nothing boyfriend." I scowl at his derisive remark but he doesn't seem to care about it. "In return you should promise me you will marry the man your parents choose for you."What the heck! I was about to speak bu
EdithTwo days passed since Sandro dropped me in my parents house. I am completing my projects and studying for my exams. Just like he promised my parents didn't ever lift the topic of Shelton. It feels like he never existed in my life. I called him thrice in last two days and every time I was transferred to an automatic message - the number doesn't exist. I have no idea why his number doesn't respond to me anymore. I do not know if my mafia family has anything to do with the situation or my bossy boyfriend did something to him after learning about my past but I wish he doesn't come after me because if he does he will be digging his own grave.Two months laterThe house was undergoing renovation with fresh paints on the wall, a whole lot of shopping went for each member of my family and mine was the most special of all, as though there was a wedding to take place. I wonder what's happening in the house but nobody wishes to reveal to me anything including my mother. Mom has been mor
Chapter 23Edith"His profession is similar to mine princess but I cannot reveal to you more details." Dad says feeding me the last spoon. "Now fresh up to go to bed and clean that grubby face." He points to me making a twist of his lips but immediately asks going excited. "Is my princess happy now." Tapping my finger on my chin I go a little dramatic and answer him thoughtfully. "May be a little."Dad smiles aloud, I was seeing him this happy after a very long time. He clears the hair on my face and kisses my forehead. "Even if hell breaks I would never decide anything wrong for you, Princess. Believe in my decision." He tells me serious holding my face in his hands. Age has marked him. There were fine lines appearing in the corner of his eyes but the smile on his rims makes him the most attractive man on earth. My daddy only mine....and he is always my superman capable of driving every demon away. The only difference is when I was small he drove them away from under my bed and now h
Chapter 24EdithThe next day I get a call from Regina. Our exams date list had been announced and they are to start within a month. I had already completed my preparations and so there wasn't a need to worry.I call Sandro and tell him the excited news of my stay with him for the tests but I was skeptical if my dad would agree for me to stay in his house since my marriage is already fixed. "Tell your dad about your examinations and I'm sure he wouldn't deny your stay with me." He speaks sanguine giving me the tranquility I desired most for the moment. I get down the stairs, show dad the notification that I got in my mail box and did a double take when he offered me on his own to stay in Sandro's house. I wonder how Sandro goes completely sure regarding my matters. "Dad I wish my wedding doesn't intrude with my internals." I open my concerns to my father because I did not wish to settle in low grades after doing so much of hard work through out the year."The ceremony is very soon g
Chapter 25Edith"Edith....Edith, wake up princess, don't you remember you promised me today that you will come and help me with the selection of houses?""Go away..." I clutch the blanket which was covering me and push it over my head to arrest the sun rays falling on my face from the window."Sweet cakes, baby wake up, I will be late to the hospital if you continue to trouble me like this. I have three surgeries today. Poor souls, their lives now depend on your mercy." I hear Sandro's requesting voice."I do not want to go. I want to sleep. Make a selection of your own." I tell pushing Sandro's hand away that was caressing my cheeks. "Princess you are queen of my life as well for my house. If you don't select then who will select the one that would be the best house for us?"I go instantly alert by his words and push away the blanket covering my face. "For us?" He clears his throat looking everywhere around the room but to meet my eyes. "Dr Allesandro Martin the house selection shou
Chapter 26EdithThe next day I called my father and within two hours I boarded the flight. After the fight I didn't see Sandro in the house or receive a call from him but the next day when I boarded the flight I had around ten bodyguards to accompany me to the airport. The chief security was having an ear piece tucked the complete time giving Sandro the information on every step I make towards getting to the flight.My marriage preparation was going on at a full swing in the house. In a way I was happy for earning the slap from Sandro. All my stupid fantasies about him washed away like dirt. My mind is now clear like a clean sheet of paper. In a way I need to thank him. Had I lost my virginity to a man other than my husband after all these years of staying celibate I could have never excused myself.Sandro is a dominating personified beast who cannot treat woman with respect. I wish he doesn't come to my marriage at all.Two days before marriage Augustus and Angelica came to our hous
Chapter 27AllesandroThe subsequent part of wedding went in a blur with me trying to initiate a conversation with Edith and she avoiding me like some kind of forbidden fruit. "He is my adopted younger brother Adrian. My father rescued him in a road accident and I treated him back to life." I introduced Adrian to Edith with pride at the same time try to institute a talk to clear the fog of fight between us." Edith ignores me fully and extends her hand towards my younger brother. "Glad to meet you Adrian."Edith's hostility was killing me. I could endure her anger, cherish her love, suffer her pain but I cannot stand her repugnance for me. I was in a dilemma regarding my opinion to stay tuned to her dad's decision. He did not wish me to share the truth with Edith and now I understood how big a blunder it was that I have committed. I should have told Edith that I was the man who is to marry her.Allen was frightened Edith would once again run away from home. Over the time she had gone
