Chapter 16: His Bidding"Mamma Lia! Madame! Help!" Mamma Lia and I woke up to the wailing screams of a maid.I opened the door in a fuss to send her off, but her state didn't let me. She bowed with her head to the ground, refusing to look up. I could hear her heavy whimper, and no one had to tell me who was responsible for the sorrows of a young girl on a morning like this."H-help p-please Don Adri will k-kill Stefano." She cried, her voice was so shaky, it was obvious- the petrified emotions that surrounded her.A few more maids came and bowed in the same position as she was in."Help Stefano madame!" They all chorused. Mamma Lia stood beside me, and I saw the worry in her eyes as well. I should've known from the way that his cheeks were swollen yesterday that Adriano wasn't going to let him go like that.It was my fault, I put him in trouble so I would have to take responsibility. "Where are they?" I inquired."The t-torture c-chambers." The girl was still sobbing. I don't know why

Chapter 17: Like Me I hurried back upstairs to check on Stefano. He was in one of the guest rooms, and they were beginning to clean him up and apply ointment. "He's burning up. I'm afraid he's developed a fever," one of the maids said, concerned about his well-being. "Does Adriano have a personal doctor or something?" I asked. I didn't want to call Rafaelle's doctor; I didn't want him to find out about anything. "Y-yes, he does," Mamma Lia managed to say without fidgeting. She looked perplexed seeing how battered Stefano was. The red-haired maid, Evonne, came in holding a tray of scissors, cotton wool, more ointment, gauze, and bandages. She placed the tray on the table before getting on her knees before me. "T-thank y-you, Madame. Without you, he might've died," she said with teary eyes and a shaky voice. "Get up," I helped her up. "Your uniform will get dirty. Let's focus on the fact that he's here now," I told her. "Yes," she said, smiling and wiping her eyes. I thought Stef
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 18
Chapter 18: Adriano's POV - (Date week)I was taken aback when she rejected the idea of a honeymoon. The internet clearly stated women liked honeymoons, even though I barely had time to spare, I made sure to choose Serena over work whenever I could. I didn't want to be anything like my father, a man who couldn't look after his own family. My mother died waiting for him to come to see her. She could've died peacefully, but he prevented her from having peace even in her last moments.I swore to never be like him and follow the teachings of my mother, to respect my wife and love my family over work or to give both equal attention. I did like the idea of us going out every week. That would prove to Roderigo, my business partner, that I can handle my work as well as my family. Pietro just had to interrupt my morning with my beautiful wife. I left before I could see her wake up.Ever since my father had assigned him to train me and put me in check for at most two years before his death, he h

Chapter 19: Adriano's POV (Date week continued)I couldn't finish signing all the contracts. I needed to be extra careful because I was dealing with spiteful men. I withdrew my assent from documents I didn't trust enough to sign. Business deals aren't child's play.I had asked Mamma Lia and Stefano to find a way to put a tracking device under her heels. I couldn't put it in her purse or in her dress or anywhere near her jewelry. Serena had a knack for noticing things like that. She had shot a man who tried to spike her drink at a party the same day I met her. Till today, how she knew remains a mystery. When they asked, she said she just knew.She would get weary of me if she found out about it. She hated being watched because it made her feel like a child. But I couldn't take risks. My father had too many enemies, and all his enemies became mine after he passed. For heaven's sake, I didn't touch anyone's family before he passed. They could've just died and made my dad pay the price in

Chapter 20: Adriano's POV (for fun & petty)"Come with me," I said, selecting a few of my men while the rest guarded the restaurant. I had to do that just in case one of the perpetrators involved in kidnapping my wife was still in there.Once we were out of the restaurant, I told them to search the street while I took Stefano with me."If anything happens to her, you'll be paying with your life," I warned Stefano as we reached an alley. Stefano ran ahead of me. I guess he wanted to live.I got furious seeing that lanky fool point a gun at my wife. As expected, he took off running. I wasn't surprised; I'd come across several cowardly men like him.I had my men get him so I could torture him before I sent him to hell.I pointed my pistol at his head. "Who the heck are you to mess with my wife?!" I needed to know his name, if he was related to any of my father's enemies."Ask her!" He grinned as though he was going to survive whatever was going to happen to him."I told you, Adriano, it w

Chapter 21: Adriano's POV (Control Freak & His Bidding)"I'm arrogant? You beat someone up, I shoot him. You hold me close in the car, you treat my wound, then you ignore me like a child. I am simply trying to call you to order. That is my duty as your wife!" She spat as though her ego had been hurt."I do not need you to call me to order!" I retorted. "I act and call shots on my own terms." I didn't need Serena to tell me what to do. I simply tried not to vent on her, but now she asks for trouble and I had no problem giving it to her."By ignoring problems? That's cowardly," she mocked. Those words sounded so familiar; my father said the same to me. It only pissed me off."Do you want to know how I run my mafia?"The only way to control a woman without physical torture is sex. My father's words rang in my ear."I don't give a damn about that anymore, just let me go!" She snapped. I could see she was struggling, and it pleased me. It pleased me.I wrapped my hand around her neck, apply

Chapter 22: Gia.Earlier that morning, Evonne had informed me about the gift Adriano had sent me. Apparently, it wasn't something that could be brought to my room. My mind went to several things. I was a reckless driver, so Rafaelle had given Adriano a strict rule against me driving, so it couldn't have been a car.As I got closer to the main entrance of the mansion, I saw a red cloth covering a cage."What is that?" I asked one of his men."It's a surprise, boss," he replied. He gestured to another man to take off the cloth, and lo and behold, it was a small, fragile, white-furred Maltese puppy.I stood in shock. Adriano sent me a dog? Someone must've told him to; there was no way he thought of that himself. He didn't seem smart in those aspects. There was a black bow tie on the puppy's head."Male or female?" I inquired."Female," he answered.It gently barked as I stretched my arm toward it. "Who will take responsibility for you after everything? I don't plan to take any of his belo

Chapter 23: Going for a raid.Unfortunately, the plan didn't go well. It was too dark, and Stefano almost harmed Gia when he fell off the bed, nearly injuring his arm."Argggg!" Stefano groaned."I'm so sorry!" Evonne exclaimed, flicking the light switch. "Are you okay?""Are you alright?" I darted to Gia, lifting her up."I'm alright," Stefano said sarcastically, rubbing his arm."Sorry, it was my fault.""Says who? Don't take the blame, Evonne. I just wanted to introduce Gia to you, Stefano.""In the dark, boss?""Yes," I shrugged. "Pretty, isn't she?" I moved her closer to Stefano."Y-yes, boss." He moved back, away from her."Gia, meet Stefano. Stefano, this is Gia, our new friend," I grinned.He gave a little smile. "Touch her so she can get used to you." He tried to do as I said, but Gia growled before barking really loud, as if she was telling him to immediately back off."You look aggressive; she won't warm up to you." I slightly pulled her leash. "Come here, mi amore." And she

Hello, I'm Tori, the author of this book. I don't know where to begin, but thank you so much for sticking with me until the end. If you're reading this, you have a big place in my heart.Initially, this book was supposed to be 30 chapters for a competition I joined last year, but it ended up lasting longer than expected, so I could not use it anymore as a short story.Amid illnesses, school issues, and writer's block, I was able to complete "Wrecking My Husband" after a year.This is my first Mafia book, and honestly, I was so scared to continue with it. Sometimes I felt exhausted because this is the first time I'm writing anything romantic, and it just had to be a dark romance. My main genre is horror, so it was challenging.I had to take breaks to focus on so many things and think long and hard about how to connect the feelings of my characters to the readers.I did not think anyone would read this, and I'm sure many must have given up due to my very slow updates. But I'm healthy no
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 91
Chapter 91: A Better Life. ADRIANO'S POV Every day I wake up feeling fulfilled. I have my beautiful wife and my pretty five-year-old daughter who has my wife's beautiful brown hair and inherited my green eyes. The same eyes I used to hate for looking just like my father's, now made me happy each time I saw them in my daughter's face. On weekends, Aria and I would take strolls around the mansion to talk about everything on our minds, as well as things or people that bother us. Then we'd come to a conclusion on how to handle those situations. Most of the time, it ended well. Sometimes we'd argue about it, then settle it. But it was our ritual that we started after a year of marriage. We wanted to be completely honest with each other, no matter what, so that we could learn to embrace each and every side of one another. "Ready?" She hugged me from behind. "We have to be fast before Rick and Rosaline get here." "I am." Every time I looked at her, I felt blessed. She did not look

Chapter 90: Forever and Ever; Where Fate has Led Us (2).I've recently fallen more in love with ponytails and decided that was how I would style my hair tonight.To me, there was something stylish and classy about having your hair up rather than letting it down, but it all depends on the outfit. I considered a few other options but went for ponytails in the end.Touching up my makeup, I let my delusional self imagine how blissful the quality time I'd be having with Adriano would be tonight. Whenever I was with him, I only wished for time to stop and never continue; more than anything, I wanted it to last forever and ever.Discussing work-related affairs could wait. I did not want us to argue one bit tonight. Spraying my perfume, I got news that Luca had arrived."With the way you're dressed one would assume that you are responsible," I teased."As they would think the same for you," he jeered playfully, making both of us chuckle."The Uncles and Mamma Lia had gone before time so we'd

Chapter 89: Where Fate Has Led Us Adriano's POV Aria went through the formal procedures to get the job, and she scaled through every scrutinizing stage. Six months had gone by, and I could not be happier. We weren't ready to rush things. I knew Serena, but I could not say much about Aria. I wanted to know her completely just as she wanted to know me as well. And I love her all the same; no, I do not think I can love her any less. She, without knowing, has me completely wrapped around her fingers, and that is where I'd like to remain. Although the construction company boomed over time, it was a facade for the real deal: my Mafia. She gave me her support in both aspects, bagging contracts back and forth. She was a force, an unstoppable force. Even when I could obviously handle the matter, I left it to my woman so I could flaunt her intelligence to everyone. People would often tell me that I fell for a shrewd businesswoman, and it was an undeniable fact. I got worried from tim

Chapter 88: The Right Direction (2)I hated that I felt so cowardly. It shouldn't be that hard to say."These are just words, Aria! Just say it," I mentally scolded myself.I swallowed. He was waiting patiently for me to say whatever I had to. I also noticed how his forehead slowly creased with worry.I didn't think he had found someone else, not with how he had been acting since we met today. He was his usual self with me."What if he's just trying to be friendly?" My intrusive thoughts nagged me.I can't do this. I need some tequila, I thought. More so, I had already broken my self-made promise to stay away from alcohol only after a year."Give me a minute," I excused myself and got a bottle of tequila from my fridge.I know I said I'd never drink again, but this was the scariest thing I had done in a while.I was just about to take the second shot when he approached me at the mini liquor cabinet. "What are you doing?" He snatched the bottle from me, his anxiousness displayed by the

"People are everywhere.""You didn't seem to have any trouble with the Blondie carrying you in his arms. Yet, you have a problem with me," he feigned annoyance. "Would you rather go back to him?""No," I instantly admitted. "I want to stay with you," I quietly added."Good. I don't want you walking in heels that high; your feet will hurt."It was hard to deny what he said. Though I could easily move in the strapped heels, my ankles were beginning to hurt.We got to where his ride was, and I gasped."Is this a new ride?" The sun shining upon the black vehicle reflected its beauty even more."It got in three days ago, and I thought you should be the first person who gets to sit in it.""Ridiculous," I laughed."It's not ridiculous," he frowned. "This is the Aston Martin DB12, coupe.""Not the

Chapter 86: AFTER.The last four years have been a lot. Tough? Definitely. Peaceful? Not when I had to study for insane tests. Eventful? Yes. I missed everyone. I missed home. I was grateful for the opportunity to keep in touch with them all through video calls, especially with Adriano. There was not a day when he did not make time for me, even when he was covered in blood, bruised, disheveled, he'd call me.I did not think it would be easy all alone in a foreign country for my studies, but he kept me going even after our divorce was finalized. He never left me. My graduation day was the day I was going to let him know that I could not find someone else. I don't think I ever could. I was all his."Ow!" I yelped as the hair straightener burned my ear."What's wrong?" Adriano asked, sounding worried. I could tell how tense he was through the phone."Nothing, I wasn't careful with the straightener.""Please be more gentle. It's a big day," he told me."I will. You're on your way, right?"
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 85
Chapter 85: The Next Four Years. SERENA'S POV I woke up feeling trapped, my limbs entangled with something warm and firm. As my hands roamed firm and toned skin, panic set in. Why can't I remember anything? Argh! I shouldn't have followed him? Was I that desperate? I must've looked like a jealous fool! I mentally scolded myself uttering all sorts of profanities. It was when I shifted the soft grey duvet off my upper body that I noticed I was topless. I tried to recollect more from when I ended up in his room, but my effort was fruitless. I'll never drink again. I promised myself. That was the last straw. The one who died when I got drunk was me. There was no blaming Adriano; I brought it upon myself by trying to spy on him like an idiot. Judging from the fact that he was fully clothed and that my pants were on, we did not do much or go all the way. I struggled so much to get my legs out of his. He captured them like I would escape or something. With patience I never knew
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 84
Chapter 84: Never Not Wanted You (2).ADRIANO'S POV.In order to revive the Mafia, I needed to establish connections with influential people. One such person was Liliana, who had been interested in Luca for years. She agreed to help only if I could arrange a date between her and Luca.During the game, my phone rang, and Aria handed it to me. It was likely that was Liliana calling to discuss the plans. I couldn't help but notice the little gasp Aria made, which I found cute. I waited until I excused myself to release the chuckle I had been holding in.Was she jealous? I had no intention of making her feel that way. She had asked for a divorce, but now she was jealous?Probably just shocked, I thought.She must have believed that my love for her was so insignificant that I would move on quickly. It hurt. I went into my room to take the call from Liliana. She was spoiled, demanding, and cocky, but I needed her to strike a deal with her father.I nearly had a heart attack when a shadow lo
