[ Aitana ]Sleep or the slightest amount of rest didn't touch my eyes for a second as my mind was solely focused on Alessandro and what the morning store for everyone. An hour passed but I didn't hear anything from him which made me even more restless.Not able to surpress my anxiety anymore, I slipped out of the bed and glanced at the clock.It showed three fifty in the morning.The mansion was draped in the absolute silence.The cold air didn't set well with me and the first thing I wished in the morning, was to escape from here and spend the rest of my days with Alessandro's parents.I grabbed my gun and made my way out of the room, armed men stood straight in each corner, they reflect no expression on their stoic faces.I approached one of them who were guarding at the entrance door of the east wing."Have you seen my husband, Alessandro?"I asked him.His brows furrowed, confusion clearly visible on his face."Alessandro?"I used signed language as my Italian was still crude and I bar
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Where are you going, Aless?"Aitana asked with a frown as I tried to peel myself out of the bed."Oh sorry I woke you up."I rubbed my nape, it was foolish of me to think that I could disappear from under her embrace without disturbing her sleep."I wasn't sleeping deeply so there's no point of sticking in the bed."She threw the blanket off her body and stood in front of me with the same question visible on her face.She needed an explanation for my silent sneak out from our room."It's the time, Ana.We are summoned in the meeting hall where everyone are already present."I told her not having any reason to make an excuse. We had to mark our presence anyways."And you're leaving like a thief,am I not invited to witness the ultimate judgement of the De Niros?"Sarcasm dripped from her words.I clearly pissed off her mood by my foolish attempt to escape without taking her with me."I am sorry, love. I didn't want to disturb your sleep. The last twenty four hours were
[ Third Person's Pov ]"Capo, you're merciful. Please, forgive my husband.I am sure someone conspired against him.Please give him a chance to prove his innocence."Gina's loud wails resounded in the hall."Capo, give me a chance to prove myself innocent. This is a conspiracy, my opponents don't want me to stay close in your circle or advise you wisely."Luciano played the victim part excellently, he knew the power of elder members, who had deeper connections like a root of old tree.They could lead to a coup even against the most powerful ruler."Gina, may I ask you a question?"Stefano,who was a master at playing mind games asked Gina.She wiped her crocodile tears snapped her eyes at the Capo,who had other plans going inside his head."Si, mio capo."She nodded her head frantically, her eyes twinkled with the hope of receiving exoneration for her husband who had yet to transfer his wealth on her name and she could never let her step daughters to inherit anything from their father's immen
[ AITANA ] "What are you thinking love?"I felt a light kiss on the crook of my neck as two arms wrapped around my belly and a hard chest pasted on my back. A wide smile stretched over my lips feeling thr warmth of his love filled embrace. "Nothing.." But I wasn't far from being okay.Gina's cries kept echoing in my ears. She was a woman forced into this world and with the passing time she accepted the stereotyped image of a submissive wife of an Italian mafia but today I saw the pain and helplessness to save her brother but none heard her pleas.Lino could be forgiven as he was forced against his will by Luciano. "Principessa?" He trailed his fingers on my bare forearms. "I am just tired."I turned to face him. I shook my head and kept staring at the galaxy in a dark night.The faint illumination of stars,how they studded on black canvas soothed my soul.I was on the terrace,it was after dinner time.He had gotten an important call from his secretary so he went in his study room to an
[ Alessandro De Niro ]Her question over the status of women in the De Niro estate stirred my own peace of mind.She was right on her part as she hadn't witnessed it in her home but things are different in my home.Women had been treated as an object,a sex toy and child producing machine,there's no second doubt on that but things begin to change but as people say reformations doesn't come in one day. I and my brothers aren't like other men of the famiglia but today, Stefano broke one of his principals, he hit a woman though it was just a kick but he disrespected a woman and Aitana, being a fierce feminine,she wasn't going to give up on this subject until we fly back to our home."What are you thinking Aless?"Adam's voice broke my chain of thoughts,I averted my gaze from the sun set.I didn't realise since when I had been sitting in the backside of the garden near the artificial lake.I crushed the butt of my cigarette on the grass and titled to face my cousin,"You're looking like a dog
[ Aitana ]I woke up alone in the bed. Last time I remembered us talking on my concern over the status of women in his famiglia, the way Stefano misbehaved with Gina,it had taken a shape of whirlpool inside my already malfunctioned system.Alessandro made me see things from his vision and I felt that it wasn't my place to judge how they prefer to live their lives,what culture they nurture and how they treat themselves. I wasn't going to spend my rest of life among them except the occasional events that are mandatory to attend. I dozed off after our exerting make out.I felt refreshed after a good hours' sleep.Glancing at the clock,I found out that I slept for six long hours.The clock showed it was around four twenty in the evening. I missed the family lunch and it made me feel pathetic of myself. Lilliana requested for a girl's out and I failed on her hopes.Throwing the blankets off my body,I rushed inside the bathroom to take a quick shower before looking for my mother in law and s
[ Aitana ]"It was a wonderful day, wasn't it?"I clapped my hands as we walked out of the hospital. The night had fallen and the weather turned colder than the day time."No, it was a dramatic day, we witnessed both death and birth, we tasted victory in blood.So yes, it was a wonderful day, Ana."He hummed lacing our fingers."I can't wait anymore, Alessandro."I stopped as we reached in the parking ground.He furrowed his brows together obviously not getting the hint of my words."What are you talking about, Ana?"He asked."You know what I am talking about, Aless."I looked intensely into his eyes.His forehead creases softened as soon as he analysed the meaning of my words."Please get inside the car,it's not safe for us to stay out for longer."He said and opened the car door for me without saying another word.His unsual reaction sprouted an unsettling feeling inside me.I was dreading his denial.After seeing him with the baby, I couldn't collect my weathered emotions.The drive was sil
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Can't you skip this girls out and stay with me in our bed?"I asked my temptress wife who was busy giving her make a last touch.She was looking absolutely the forbidden beauty in a white midi dress which hugged her body tightly, in fact carving out her curves and perfect round ass ,the way her hips were bent in a U shape, I had a strong urge to bang her in that same position and made her scream my name from those plump lips painted in a burgundy color lipstick.She put the brush down on the vanity table and turned to face me,"Alessandro, don't whin like a five years old boy and try to sustain your thinning patience. I am all yours for the rest of our lives and you can always fuck me but we have other priorities in our lives, right now it's your Mom. She had been looking forward for our first girls' date and I am excited to spend some time with her and Emmy.""You can simply tell them that you're not feeling well."I came up with a silly excuse only to receive a
