Arianna has heard of whips with small pieces of metal or bones at the top used to cause disfigurement or serious trauma for the victim like ripping pieces of flesh from the body and though the bullwhip in the guard's grasp - made with braided leather- wasn't like that, she still couldn't help but panic.

She could see that Claudia was scared as well; her lips were trembling, beads of sweat on her forehead, and of course, the fear in her eyes.

If that whip landed on Claudia's body, in addition to causing her pain, she might approach a state of hypovolemic shock due to loss of blood. And as much as her cousin was a bitch, Arianna couldn't lose her.

She turned to Big Joe hurriedly, speaking with a hushed tone, "You said it was a cane, that doesn't look like one,"

"Don't cause any scene, just sit back and enjoy the show," Was all Big Joe said to her, causing her hands to fist with anger.

Enjoy what show? The freak show? As much as she loathed Claudia, Arianna would rather exert her re

    Marcel had not been able to sleep a wink last night and was up before the first crow of the morning. He had a few cases of insomnia and tonight seems to be one of those days.Most times it always took him drugs to go to sleep but when Arianna had been around, it was like she had been his special concoction. Her presence was distracting and all he needed was for her to royally piss him off and he'd go to bed annoyed, his demons pushed to the back of his mind.It wasn't that he couldn't sleep but his sleep was usually plunged with nightmares of his troubling childhood and most times, his first kill. Why was his first kill so significant?His first kill was his debut as a "made man" and Marcel accomplished that while he was merely thirteen years of age. It was a Mafia initiation ritual to become a made man before being welcomed as a member of the gang. While a novice would follow the custom of pricking fingers to draw blood and taking an oath of loyalty to the Luciano family, Marcel had

    Macy woke up with a startle, it was the first time in a long time she was having that kind of nightmare. But then, it was a long time since she forgot about her revenge as well.She had never been able to forget that morning; the day her father was killed. When one talked about murders, it had to be done by the big, evil men or women but Macy had seen it all; a little boy killed her father. Macy remembered the startle in his eyes when she stumbled upon him hiding the gun in the inside of his jacket and she had been fascinated, thinking it was a toy gun until she saw the blood spot on her father's body as he slumped to the ground.The scream that left her mouth had been full of shock and pain as she realized at that moment she just lost her father and the changes it would bring to her life.Macy remembered telling the authorities what she had seen but of course, no one believed her or maybe they had been paid off to never consider her as a witness. She had been in shock and saw thing

    Unable to stand the tie anymore, Marcel slipped it out of his neck and was just about to toss it to God knows where when his phone beeped with a message. He picked up the phone thinking it was from one of the hundreds of men under his command only to find otherwise. It was the coordinates for the meeting; he just received the location. Why was he texted the locations an hour to the meeting? Well, the location had to be discreet in case they had enemy spies who might try to take them out using this opportunity. Imagine if their meeting place was bombed? That would be killing two birds with one stone: the entire Luciano family would be wiped out. "Right on time," Marcel muttered as soon as the door to his room was opened and a figure walked in. He didn't need to turn or look at the mirror in front of him to know who that was. Everyone had distinct footsteps and he had a habit of mastering it. It saved his life a few times. "Boss," Samuel acknowledged his presence. "Get the car ready

    Marcel was able to get a breathing space, at least, after Victor moved his attention to his phone, probably chatting with one of his latest love interests. He just prayed his cousin wasn't planning to throw another because the last one lowered his defenses and led to the death of not one, but more than a few of his men. He won't let that happen again. It was a thirty minute or so drive when they arrived at the hotel restaurant. Thanks to their VIP reservation, they had their own exclusive entrance to the hotel and when he stepped out, Marcel could already see a few of his relatives had arrived with their cars lined up.As expected, men and women in tailored suits dressed impeccably like they were about to attend an international conference meeting instead of a family meeting. Marcel wondered what was with Mafia families and their love for suits? If one stared at this scene, they would think it was an important gathering of big-shot businessmen and women with their entourage. If onl

    Marcel shook his head at the drama going on between mother and son; they were hilarious. Victor and his mother were by far the most normal people in this organization and Marcel was not going to lie, he sometimes wished he could get into his cousin's shoes. You know, to see what it is like to come from a loving home where your opinion mattered and your feelings are considered. They seemed so happy - he wanted that too. The smile was still on his lips when someone suddenly stood in front of him. Because Marcel had been distracted, he hadn't noticed her coming and only caught her figure from the corner of his eyes at the last minute. "If this isn't our very own Marcel," She smirked, showing off sparkling white teeth and an odd amusement in her eyes that could almost be mistaken as mockery. "Cindy," He breathed upon seeing his other cousin - one of his second cousins. The girl was young, eighteen-year-old Marcel guessed - he wasn't exactly in the mood to keep tabs on his relatives -

    If there was anyone that interested Marcel amongst his second cousins, that would be Adele. It wasn't uncommon for the male in the family to have mistresses while the wives pretended to be oblivious to it, however, they made sure complications aka a child didn't arise from their affairs.But his uncle Benjamin had failed at that and there came about the birth of Adele. And while he should have sent her away to avoid conflict in the future, Benjamin cared much about the number of his children - that would go up against them. So Adele stayed especially after he lost two of his sons.It was obvious that Adele went through hell in the hands of Benjamin's wife especially after she gave birth to her long-awaited daughter, Cindy, two years after she arrived in the family. And while others in her situation would break and give up from the maltreatment, Adele stood tall and prevailed. Now she's a core member of the organization.With a driven, hard-working, and no-nonsense personality, it wa

    Victor walked with Marcel by his side, scanning their surrounding like a thief scouting his target, ensuring there was no one eavesdropping on their conversation as he revealed, "I spoke with my mother and -""You actually spoke with your mother?" Marcel interrupted him, brows raised in interest, "I actually thought she was beating you the entire time," He laughed, all by himself.Victor halted in his step, giving him a deadpanned look."Sorry. Continue." Marcel decided to be serious.Victor resumed the conversation immediately as if someone had pressed the play button on him, "She said they are going to pressure you into choosing an underboss today,"There was no change in Marcel's expression at that disclosure. He didn't even blink, "Thought that much,"Unlike him, Arthur does not exactly hide his emotions well and there was only one good reason why his cousin could be that happy: he sensed his promotion. In his dream. One might ask why was everyone so desperate for the position o

    "Arianna!" Mimi was the first person to sight her. Just as she thought, she was the last person to arrive as Mimi and Adele beckoned her to their table. "I'm so sorry I'm late, I had to coax Aricel and Marcel before leaving." Adele snorted a laugh at the side, "You two are determined to call her that, kid is going to grow up hating that name." She laughed once more. "The name is a demonstration of the love between Marcel and me, even outsiders think it's romantic. Trust me, she's going to cherish it when she grows up and learns the history between her parents," Arianna was sure of it. "Let's pray so." Adele snickered, bringing the drink to her lips, tipped her head back, and chugged it. "No, no, this is no time for argument. We came here to have a good time and don't mind Adele, she's just sour that she had to sneak out through the back door to escape her own children." Mimi was the peacemaker, and this time, it was Arianna's turn to laugh. "You left through the back door? Tell

    "Good morning love," Arianna woke up to Marcel peppering butterfly kisses on her jaw and nuzzled her neck, deeply inhaling her scent as if she was a drug that he was addicted to. Well, that was not entirely wrong. He was fucking addicted to her. "Morning," Arianna croaked, sleepy-eyed, and turned her back to him. They had done a lot of bonking last night and she was sore and tired as hell. Not that the move deterred him because she could feel his hands caressing her naked body beneath the sheet, stirring up a fire that should be extinguished already. Unfortunately, her body was a greedy bitch and a sucker for pain. One would have thought that after giving birth to three children, their sex life would have dwindled, but the reverse was the case. This was the reason they had to get away from the children and the base. Sex with Marcel was always loud, dirty, and rompy and they didn't want the children walking into something inappropriate. Moreover, just because they had children, did

    Ten years later….. ___________"Mummy? Daddy?" Penelope walked into her parent's room only to realize that it was as dead as a graveyard. Her parents were nowhere to be seen and she went into a panic. Penelope was four years old and the third child to be born to Marcel and Arianna. It was obvious that the girl was conceived with love and named after Marcel's mother whom she bore a bit of resemblance as well. The young girl had Marcel's blonde hair and her late grandmother's blue eyes marking her different from her siblings who had the signature gray eyes of the Luciano family. With Penelope taking up the role of their last child - although that position was likely to change in the future - she was spoiled and treated like a princess and it was not surprising that she burst into tears when she was unable to find her parents. "Mummy," She climbed into the bed and began to cry at the top of her lungs knowing that somebody was going to find her anytime soon. Penelope was used to the a

  • Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute   Chapter 148 What The Future Had For Them

    For someone mad at Marcel for taking Aricel out for a visit in the middle of the night, she ended up spending more time there instead. By the time they decided to go home, it was already three o'clock in the morning and even their resilient daughter couldn't fight nature anymore and had fallen asleep. It happened that Adele ended up revealing the news of her pregnancy publicly instead and that sparked off a celebration. There was a lot of drinking and eating in between light conversations that by the time they were done, Arianna was a hundred percent sure that she was drunk. Marcel was the daddy of the year because he refused the alcohol knowing that he would have to drive a drunk wife and sleepy daughter instead, even though Luka was available to take up the role of a designated driver. ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom And yes, it had taken Marcel quite some time to get used to the fact that his best soldier and friend - he would not admit it - did not betray him, rather he stepped out of line i

    He should have known. Marcel felt his phone ring earlier, but then, he had been so engulfed in the fun he was having with the children that he ignored it. Moreover, he had not expected Arianna home until the early hours of the morning, nor had it ever crossed his mind that she would ever come here. Even late at night, the children had a great burst of energy and didn't tire easily and who knew that the game would turn out to be more fun than he thought? Victor decided that they should play paintball and it was even stunning that he had the equipment in his booth as if he had seen this coming. Enlightening the kid on how to play the game was a bit taxing at first, but after about four trial games, they were good to go. The kids were smart and Marcel couldn't have been more proud of his daughter over the way she expertly dodged the Marker, paint-filled pellet. However, they were holding back on purpose because he, Elijah, and Victor were all expert shooters and this was supposed to

    "I feel sick," Adele moaned over the toilet seat. "Shhh, it's okay," Arianna muttered, rubbing her back, "You're going to be fine and we are going to take you home right now." "No, I'll be -" She was about to protest when another wave of nausea hit her and she was retching into the toilet once more. Good thing no other person was coming in to use the restroom since this wasn't exactly a pretty sight. Adele was kneeling over the toilet while Arianna was behind her keeping her hair from getting in the way. The toilet cubicle was opened since it wasn't spacious enough for the both of them. "Mimi, could you stop staring at that strip and get the car ready? '' Arianna chided her with a glower. This was not a joke. Mimi in question was leaning against the sink and staring at the pregnancy strip as if it was a national treasure. While Adele had not denied the allegation of sleeping with her "husband" she was positive that she wasn't pregnant. It was too early nor did she have plans of

    "Daddy! Daddy! carry me!" "Daddy! Me too!" "Daddy! Liam pinched me!" "Daddy! Look, I'm a dinosaur! Roar!!!"Such was the condition Marcel and Victor found Elijah in when they arrived at his place. The cousin had not come together, but somehow they met in the driveway and thus, came in at the same time only to see this disaster. "And I thought I had problems." Victor hinted at his son trying to wriggle out of his arms. "I second that," Marcel said, glancing down at his daughter Aricel who was trying to reach for her cousin Caleb, both of their hands touching but not exactly reaching. "No, Leo! Don't touch the vase!" Elijah was already reaching for the boy but the deed had already been done because the vase fell to the ground and shattered. At this point, Elijah stood helplessly staring at the twin who lifted his hand to his mouth and giggled shyly,"Daddy, sorry." "God, no," Elijah lifted his hand and rubbed his temple where he could feel a throbbing headache. He thought that h

    Adele was so embarrassed by her breakdown that she didn't dare to look any of them in the eyes and she was extra grateful when the food arrived. Now, she had a reason to not look up, burying her face in her food instead. As if they understood her, Arianna and Mimi did not bother her and let her be. Perhaps, this was the reason she preferred their company rather than being completely alone - aside from the fact that both of them were the only people relatively close to the word "friends" in her life. They respected each other's boundaries - most times, she thinks - and didn't push their buttons. Also, Adele felt better, lighter, like this huge load in her chest had been taken off. Who knew talking was therapeutic? "So…." Mimi started up another conversation, which wasn't surprising. She must hate the silence or something. "What's Marcel's plans towards Aricel?" The question was obviously directed at Arianna. "What do you mean by that?" Arianna looked down, absent-mindedly rolling

    Arianna, Mimi, and Adele finally decided on a simple restaurant that was just around the corner and didn't have to trek too far. Although the late-night air cleared their head just a little bit and in no time they were basking in the warmth the restaurant provided. Picking up the menu, they made their orders before relaxing for a conversation that wasn't going to end anytime soon. "So…" Mimi started, which honestly wasn't surprising. She was a natural at initiating conversations even with the most awkward company, "How is married life going for you?" The question was directed at Arianna and she blinked in surprise, pointing a hand to her chest, "You mean, me?" "Yes, you. Who else was I going to start with?" Mimi shrugged, looking between the both of them - she and Adele. Arianna said, "You practically know everything about me. I thought you were going to start with her, she's the most reclusive person in this group." Adele in question lifted the glass of water to her lips and to

    The slap sent the man reeling as he saw stars in his vision. Unlike Mimi who had been taken aback by his action that reacted instinctively, Arianna's slap was well planned hence the reason she put a lot of her strength into it; she intended to hurt him "Who are you calling a bitch, your mother?!" She scolded him, stepping in line beside Mimi with her head lifted high. How dare that piece of shit lay a hand on her girlfriend? "Y-you!" The man raged, now holding the cheek where Arianna slapped him, "The both of you are dead!" He threatened her. "You have quite the confidence." Arianna scoffed, folding her arms across her chest. And oh, she finally saw why the man was confident because he did not come alone and about three of his minions stepped out confidently from the crowd. Just one night Arianna decided to be away from the stress of motherhood, and violence calls instead. At this point, those dancing on the floor abruptly halted their having sensed something violent was about to
