Chapter 35: Not Going to Care Anymore"Here." Both Adriano and Luca stretched a cup of water toward me. I was going to reach out for mine, but Luca already had it. I took Adriano's help instead, drinking up while he gently rubbed my back."The food must be too spicy for her to handle. Sorry about that, child," Frederic said, extending a glass of milk I never knew was on the table to Luca so he could give it to me. Wasn't milk for children? I guess it made up for not accepting Luca's glass of water.I coughed a few more times, trying to clear my throat while I held back threatening tear drops."Thank you," I said almost inaudibly. Never did choking on my food feel so life-threatening."Take some more milk, child," Federico suggested. I really hate that they decided to call me a child. I wasn't a child."Are you okay?" Adriano whispered in my ear."Yes," I spoke, my voice much more audible. "I'm fine." I faked a small smile."Good. I don't think it's a good idea for you to eat that," Luc

Chapter 36: Gurlcation [1]I was thankful that Adriano didn't ask me any questions. He just sat with me, finished the N*****x thriller series with me, and let me go to bed. Since Adriano's uncles had already cancelled the rule thing, he was up early and left for the office before they could all wake up.I picked out a short blue and black flowery patterned dress and beach-like flat sandals with lace-ups. I went for curling my hair because wavy hair would go with my look. My brunette curls couldn't have looked much better.I put on a black headband with a bow and took a black purse, hanging it on my shoulder and finishing up my neutral make-up. I totally looked like I went back to looking eighteen or nineteen at most.Gia was waiting at the staircase as usual to say good morning. She barked and wagged her tail joyfully upon seeing me."I'll take that as a compliment." I kissed her head, lifting her up. "You better not poop on me," I warned, and she let out a woof in response.No one els

Chapter 37: Gurlcation [2].After our bodies felt rejuvenated again, we got our nails done and headed to the mall. Forcing Stefano to tail behind us in my car, I drove with Rosaline."...I'm starting to think there's nothing in that mansion," I vented out my frustration to her, telling her about how bizarre my search has been. I told her about Luca too."That house is like the traditional home of the Di Salvo's, you're probably not searching the right places," she said, her eyes strictly focused on the road."What am I missing? Even when I got into his office, it seemed perfectly normal," I sighed, looking out the window."Imagine if there's actually a secret passageway in your room or his office," she jested.I sat up reasoning with her. "There could actually be one.""Maybe. I've dealt with some crazy Chinese men. They have a thing, it's like a fetish for passageways and underground shit.""So does Maria," I quipped."True, she's one insane woman.""That's undebatable," I agreed."I

Chapter 38: Treacherous DecisionsAdriano drove himself; he wanted it to be just the two of us."Are you seriously not going to tell me?" I crossed my arms, pouting my lips."You look like Gia right now," he said, taking one of his hands off the steering wheel to ruffle my hair."Get your hand off my head." I smacked his hand away.He chuckled. "How do you keep getting cuter?""It's a natural charm," I laughed, flipping my hair. "Are you seriously not going to tell me where we're going?""Curiosity killed the cat."I tittered. "Curiosity has never killed me.""You'd be surprised," he grinned widely."You're too full of yourself," I rolled my eyes."Quite rich coming from you, Serena."I scoffed. "What do you mean?""You know what I mean.""I don't," I retorted."We're here," he told me. We were in front of a grey apartment gate.'Does he want to introduce me to someone else?' I thought. That better not be the surprise."Adriano, where are we?" I furrowed my eyebrows."My apartment," he

Chapter 39: What if I wrecked you?"Are you sure you learned this online?" I moaned from the happiness ignited within my stomach. I guess I did have room for more.~•~"I've been practicing for days," he let me know."I'm so proud of you, Adriano," I beamed. "Another accomplishment to add to the list." I playfully teased. "Remember when you made black toast and bitter coffee?""Stop," he chuckled. "Let the past be in the past.""You wouldn't say that if I spoke about how you managed to outsmart the FBI, now would you?" I smirked before eating another piece of steak."I suppose I wouldn't," he shrugged. "It is something to be proud of.""Hmmhmm," I smiled, being careful to keep my stuffed mouth closed. 'Touché,' is what it'd be if I were to smile with my teeth open."More champagne?""Yes, please," I stretched forth my glass as he helped me with another fill. Usually, I could handle my liquor, but that champagne got me tipsy easily. Strong and addictive.He cleared his throat. "Serena."

Chapter 40: Ti Amo.~•~R18~•~"I need a towel," I said, shuddering slightly from the breeze. "I'm cold.""Oh." He paced back and forth as if he forgot where the towels were. He was a lot of things, but Adriano wasn't clumsy. I couldn't help but chuckle at how he had been lately.Was it because of me?"Here.""Thanks." I smiled, taking the towel from him. He wrapped his towel around his torso. I guessed the cold didn't affect him as much as it affected me."So?" He gestured towards the bathroom."Y-yeah." I nodded, knowing we weren't just going to shower.After placing our towels on the towel hanger, he ran the shower and got a nice lavender-scented body wash. It smelled really divine. Everywhere he touched tingled as he ran his hands over my body in a bid to wash me. The warm water and steam helped with the cold, but it felt like his body contact was the only thing that could completely get rid of the shivers."Let me wash you too." I took some of the body wash on my hands and ran th

Chapter 41: A Bottle of Whiskey and ChessAdriano cared enough to get me pills to prevent pregnancy. He was willing to take it slow with me, believing I was too scared to have children. I was, but that's not the point. I didn't want to have kids with him."Mia cara- My dear," Mamma Lia greeted me with an unusual glow on her face."Mamma Lia," I smiled.She grabbed my arm gently and pulled me into a corner. "How was it?" She wiggled her eyebrows."What do you mean?" I laughed in confusion."You don't think I woke up early just to give you pancakes, do you?""Nothing happened." It was embarrassing to tell her these things."The pool area says the opposite," she smirked, and my face turned red."We just had dinner," I shrugged.She shook her head. "I know you did more than just have dinner. You can't tell me you left the walls of that large mansion just to have dinner. I thought children today are wild and liberal, why are you so shy to tell about how a romantic night went? Was the sex-"

Chapter 42: A Bottle of Whiskey and Chess [2]Taking a sip of her whiskey, she said, "Let's get serious. I have an addition to the plan."I made my move first. "What's that?""Not now," she held back. "Serena, do you think it is important to know about all the pawns on the chess board to win?""Of course, the more you know, the easier it'll be to win.""Good point." She moved one of her knights forward. "But not good enough and definitely not necessarily. A player can capture the king without knowing the moves of all the pieces. It's more about strategic thinking and planning ahead. A player who wants to capture the king needs to be able to think several moves ahead, anticipate the opponent's moves, and set up a sequence of moves that leads to checkmate.""Okay?" I moved a rook and captured one of her pawns."Knowing about the triplets and Luca wouldn't have changed a thing. Winning their respect or love isn't necessary. The target is none other than Adriano because he holds the key. N

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
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 89
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

Chapter 87: The Right DirectionSERENA/ARIA'S POV"Where were we?" I chuckled lightly."Yes.""Adriano, put me down; people are watching.""Let them," he smiled."No, this is different," I pleaded. "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?"

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
