Maria.I am so freaking hungry that I haven’t stopped rolling around on my bed over and over all night.I couldn’t sleep, how could I when I had had nothing but water all morning? Gosh, I haven’t eaten anything today and that asshole dent bothered to call me downstairs when it was time for dinner; I wasn’t going to eat with him anyways.I rubbed my stomach as it growled again for what seemed to be the millionth time, I can’t do this anymore I need to go get something to eat. With a loud huff, I took the blanket off, wore my house slippers, and went downstairs in search of a snack or snacks.The whole place was a bit dark except for the small light in the middle of the room, which was enough to brighten the place.Immediately I got to the kitchen, I wasted no time in searching the cupboards since I hadn’t done a house tour yet I still didn’t know where I could find some stuff.I opened the cupboards but couldn’t find anything, I bit my lip as I went through the last one. Nothing. The w
Luciano.My wife is a ball of fire ready to burst at any time. She’s nothing like the meek and calm woman I had thought I would be getting married to—that was my wish at least, to have someone who wouldn’t ask queen set ions if I wanted her to stop working, someone who would be okay with my decisions instead of questioning them.And the whole drama she did when I returned still played in my head even as I sat at the dining table while Elena served dinner.She’s different from what I thought, nothing like her asshole father but has the same blonde running in her veins.“Do you need something else, Mr Rossi?” Elena asked when she was done arranging the table.I shook my head, “I don’t.” I replied but she still remained on the spot she was standing on.“Is there something more you’d like to say?”“Yes….no….I mean yes.” She stuttered.Elena never stutters.“Make up your mind and tell me what you want to say,” I demanded as I picked up the cutlery.“I….do you need me to get Mrs Rossi down
Maria.I woke up early the next morning, showered, and wore a jumpsuit since I’m going to be at home today as well as all the days of my life.I decided to have that house tour by myself this morning, so after having a light breakfast of toasted bread and eggs with a hot chocolate drink I started my mission.The mansion is huge, most of the rooms are decorated in a modern style while some of them are just painted with dark paints but it was still beautiful.The whole mansion has a total of sixteen rooms after my little tour and I haven’t even gotten to some part of the place, the rooms were almost the same design and space. During my tour, I was able to locate a few important rooms that I could spend the whole day in while I was under house arrest in his big forsaken house.As I got to the second floor I was tempted to go check out Luciano’s room. But that would be the last place I would enter in this mansion.There was a modern packed gym room downstairs, I mean it had everything a g
Maria.I couldn’t believe the asshole had the guts to spank me and he even went ahead to say.“If I had known you would be this quiet after getting spanked, I would have done that a long time ago.”The asshole!I was seething when we got to the dining table, he dropped me down l and went ahead to take his seat. I remained standing as I stared—no, glared, at him.The whole place was quiet which meant we were alone now and that was good. I could do whatever I wanted without feeling embarrassed.“Sit down,” Luciano said as he watched me from across the table, his gaze going back and forth from my body to the chair beside me.It’s like he’s intimidating me to do as he said and plopped my ass on the chair but I wasn’t doing that. Like I said he doesn’t scare me.“Sit your ass down this minute Mariana or I swear to God, you would not only get a call from your sister but from your father too.” The bastard.He’s threatening me and he knows very well that that is going to work on me.With a gl
Maria.I sucked in a deep breath as Elena helped me with the strings of my corset, it was tight and it felt like I couldn’t breathe yet she kept on insisting for me to suck in another breath as she tried to pull the last strings.Today marks the first time Luciano and I would be out to a party officially, truthfully I would have passed going out with him if only it was avoidable.We have been married for a month now and in that time frame, we have done everything possible to ignore each other entirely. It felt like we were two strangers coexisting in a house, instead of a husband and a wife.Most times that’s around, we spend the time either arguing or fighting and it’s getting tiring so I had to opt for the ignoring part.We merely shared a conversation or even asked the other how their day went, all we did was glare at the other while passing and nothing else. And I freaking love it.At times, I waited until he'd left for the day doing who knows what before coming downstairs to prep
Maria.I took the stairs one after the other carefully so I wouldn't fall on my face. Luciano hadn’t noticed my presence yet and just when I was three steps down to the living room, he glanced at me over his shoulder and tensed before ending the call and turning around.I frowned, I wondered who he was speaking to that he didn't want me to hear.But I heard a bit of his conversation and that made me wonder what he was planning. He has been doing this quite a lot— the few times that we met while he was on his phone, he always hung up before I could hear what he was and that bothered me. I wondered if he was speaking to a woman, was he perhaps having an affair? We might have married because we don't love each other but one thing I wasn’t going to condone was cheating.“Who….was that?” I asked, feeling curious.I hated him but that doesn’t stop me from knowing if I’m being disrespected that way.“No one.” He replied and tucked his phone in his pants pocket.I find his answer hard to beli
Luciano.My heart was racing as pain surged through every limb in my body. I groaned loudly and attempted to sit up, only to curse and fall back on the cold damp floor. My palms pressed against the cold concrete as I closed my eyes grimacing in pain.I wanted to cry but quickly kicked against the idea as soon as it came. Crying would mean every single one of those fuckers has won, crying would mean I am weak and weakness isn’t something I want to show any of them.“Brother.” I craned my neck to the other side of the room, opening my eyes and trying to adjust to the darkness in the room.One would think I must have gotten used to it after staying here for years.My brother.He’s the only thing that is keeping me sane in these four cold empty walls. He’s the only thing that makes me look forward to seeing another day; to plan our escape.“Are you alright?” He asked, his voice shaking slightly due to how cold the room was.I grind my teeth together and let out a sigh.“I’m fine. Just a s
Luciano.The bigger guard stepped forward and pushed the other one aside, he unlocked the door with a loud clank.In a matter of seconds the door was opened but what happened after was what I was totally unaware of—expecting? Yes.Adriano pushed the bigger guard aside as he moved forward and quickly grabbed the other guard’s hand, twisting it behind him until the loud sound of bone breaking was heard in the quiet place. The resounding crack is drowned by the guard's scream.“I thought you don’t need them since you aren’t going to use them.” He snarled as he kicked his leg sending him to the floor.Like that wasn’t enough he kicked the guard's mouth and a couple of teeth fell out, blood seeping out of his mouth down to his neck.The guard passed out immediately.Weak. Pathetic.I cracked my neck, fingers, and body, and a low groan left my mouth feeling the stinging pain biting at my side.I will need a doctor after this.I glared at Adraino and what he had done.“I told you to calm dow

Maria.I was seething as I waited for the asshole to return, I haven’t been able to do anything after getting that call from Emilia, I couldn’t do anything. The food Elena bought was still sitting on the table and I was tempted to call her to take the tray out.I had typed what I wanted to show to him when he returned, he shouldn’t think of himself as a god over my life. He doesn’t have the right to control what I do, who I can see and can not.I paced up and down in the living room, yeah you heard me right. I came back downstairs just to wait for him.I didn’t stop pacing even when I felt a bit lightheaded and I knew I should probably take my seat as I waited for him but none of that was going to happen.I know he has guards who are watching me even while I’m in his house, they should see and report to him how agitated I am.I paused when I heard his car coming in, that should be him because no one would come in by this time of the day.I waited, staring at the door but not making it
Maria.I woke up and found myself still lying on the cold floor, I must have slept off while crying my eyes out. I got up with my teeth shaking slightly and walked to the bathroom, I washed my face with warm water before coming out.My stomach wouldn’t stop growling since I woke up and I didn’t want to go downstairs for food.I would rather starve than eat anything from that controlling bastard.I sat on the bed and just then someone knocked on the door, I stared at it without getting up. Maybe the person will walk in if I do not get up but that didn’t happen. The knock became persistent and with a low groan, I picked up my phone and walked toward the door to answer it since I had no other choice.It was Elena and unlike in the morning when she was holding some clothes, she was carrying a tray instead.My eyes stared at the item on it and the sweet smell wafted into my nose causing my stomach ash to grumble again.“Mrs Rossi, it’s past noon and you haven’t had breakfast yet so I decid
Luciano.Pedro’s eyes didn’t leave mine after I said that and I could feel Kyle and Adriano’s eyes on me too. They don’t need to fucking know if I had sex with my wife or not.“You will not do such a thing! You promised you weren't going to touch her.” He growled.“She is my wife and it’s customary for me to fuck her on our wedding night.” I wasn’t going to sugarcoat my words anymore.His whole face went red and his nose flared.“Bastard. I’m telling you as her father, you should not touch her again. You promised me that.” Just the same way you promised to be there for us.Idiota.“I’m her husband and I have every right to touch her.” I know the thought of me laying a hand on his daughter would make his blood boil and I like seeing it, it felt so satisfying seeing him this way.“You will not hurt her.” He said, his voice sounding a bit defeated.“You gave me your word and you will do well to keep it. You may have a few cards on your hands and so do I? Do you think it’s wise to cross t
