The mafia's bride Chapter 5
Damon remarked calmly, as if a war between New York and Chicago wasn't about to start, "I didn't intend disrespect. But Freya is no longer under your care. The moment you declared her my fiancée, you forfeited your right to punish her. She is now under my control." Father bowed his head and cast a quick glimpse at the ring on my finger. The other guys in the room began to relax a little as Damon released his grip on his wrist, but they didn't put their guns away. "That's accurate." He took a step back and pointed at me. "If so, would you enjoy the privilege of making her see sense?" I stopped breathing as Damon 's stern glare landed on me. "She didn't defy me," Damon said. Father's lips became drier. "You're correct. However, in my opinion, Freya will be residing in my home until the wedding, so I'll have to find another means to get her to follow me because honor precludes me from raising my voice in her face. He struck Gianna again while scowling at her. "Freya, your sister wil

The men went to the lounge after dinner to drink, smoke, and talk about anything else that needed to be talked about. I went back to my room, but I had trouble falling asleep.I eventually changed out of my jammies and into a bathrobe.I snuck out of my room and down the stairs. In a moment of madness, I entered the path that led to the lounge's hidden door behind the wall. My Grandfather always believed that because the family's males typically met in the office and the fireplace lounge, it was essential to have hidden exits in both locations. After the males had all escaped through the hidden passage, I questioned what he believed would happen to the ladies.Gianna was staring intently through the door's covert peephole when I discovered her. Of course, she was there already. When she saw me, she turned around with her eyes wide but unperturbed. "What is happening there?" I was afraid the men in the lounge would overhear us, so I spoke in a low whisper. I was able to look through

Mother pulled at the outfit that Father had picked out for the event. For what Gianna referred to as the meat show. But no matter how hard Mother pulled, the dress didn't lengthen. I cast a doubtful glance in the mirror at myself.I had never worn anything so exposed. The top of the black dress, which clung to my butt, waist, and upper thighs, was a glittering golden bustier with black tulle straps. "Mother, I can't wear that."In the mirror, Mother caught my eye. Her hair was pulled back and put up; it was little darker than mine. She was dressed elegantly in a floor-length gown. I hoped I could do anything that simple. She hushed, "You look like a woman." I shuddered. "I appear to be a hooker.""Hookers can't afford such a dress."Father's mistress owned clothing that was more expensive than other people's monthly car payment. My mother grabbed my waist with her hands. "Your legs look incredibly long in the dress, and you have a wasp waist. I have no doubt that Damon will value it.

No matter how badly I wanted time to pass more slowly and allow me more time to prepare, the last few months had passed far too quickly. It will be my engagement celebration in two days. Mother was busy running the household staff around and making sure everything was running smoothly. Not even a large party was held. We were the only ones invited, along with Luca's family and the families of the leaders of New York and Chicago. Umberto said it was for security purposes. It was still too soon after the truce to risk inviting hundreds of people. I wanted it to be completely scrapped. I couldn't care less if I didn't meet Damon until the wedding day.On my bed, Fabiano leaped up and down while pouting. He was only five years old and far too animated."I want to play!" "Mother does not want you to run through the house".For the guests, everything must be flawless."But they're not even here"I say. Please God. Luca and the other visitors from New York would show up the following day. I

I was reading on the chaise longue in our library three years ago when a knock sounded. Liliana's head was on my lap, and she didn't even move. Our mother's dark blond hair was pushed back securely and fastened in a bun at the back of her head as she entered through the dark wooden door. Mother's face was furrowed with stress, and she was pale. "Did something happen?" I askedShe grinned, but it was a fake one. "Your father requests a conversation with you in his office." She said. I laid my book down on the chaise after carefully stepping out from under Lily's head. She pressed her legs close to her body. Although I was just five feet four, I wasn't particularly tall either, and she was little for an eleven-year-old. In our family, none of the women were. As I approached Mother, she averted her eyes. "Am I in serious trouble?" I was unsure of what I could have done wrong. Lily and I were often the ones who followed regulations; Gianna was the one who consistently disobeyed rules

As I raised my hands, my fingers shook like leaves in the wind, and my heartbeat quickened to the rate of a hummingbird. When Damon grabbed my hand in his strong hand, he held it firmly and steadily as he placed the ring onto my finger. Damon is a very steady and powerful hand. Twenty very little diamonds are set in white gold. What other couples took to be a manifestation of their love and commitment was, in reality, nothing more than a declaration of his ownership over me. A constant reminder of the shiny gilded prison in which I would be confined for the rest of my life. It wasn't just a meaningless phrase to them, unlike the vows of so many other couples who entered into the sacred bond of marriage willingly together . There was absolutely no way for me to get out of this marriage. I was Damon's until the very end.It is possible that the last few words of the oath that men had to swear when they were initiated into the mafia might have just as easily been the last words of my w
