Chapter 45: Why are you being so nice?—☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ☆ﾟ—I rolled on the bed from one side to the other before reluctantly opening my eyes. I wanted to stay in bed longer, but the soft light filtering from the window wasn't helping. I was just too exhausted. I ran my hands over the mattress, then around the lamp stand to grab my phone. I checked the time and it was already twelve noon."Shit. Shit," I grumbled, rubbing my eyes. I sat up and stretched my upper body for a bit.My phone beeped with a text.[Happy new month, sista! Remember it's your birth month. Any plans? Ouu, I also feel like clubbing next Friday, so hit me up if you're in. Bye, Mia Cara! ~ Rosa]A wave of disappointment rushed through me. Why was I expecting him to text? I kept contemplating whether it was right for me to send a text or not. I shook my head. Half of the day was gone, I should at least make good use of the rest of it.I took a bath, got into black sweatpants, a black top, and made my hair into a neat bun. I h

Chapter 46: In New Orleans.—☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ☆ﾟ—"Am I crossing any boundaries?" He said, acting totally oblivious."Is that a question?" I retorted. "Yes, you are." I huffed, crossing my arms."Pardon me then." He simply replied, without creating a fuss like I thought he would."What?" I knitted my brows. No explanation? No reason?He glanced at me with that "what were you expecting" expression. "I said I'm sorry." He continued. "I won't overstep any boundaries again, however, I have to take your portrait to add to the family collection. Uncle Federico and Frederic are expecting me to do a marvelous job." He patted the seat. "Hurry sister-in-law, I need this to dry on time."As of now, I can only assume Luca had a thing for big shirts and sweatpants because that was what he had on today. He dressed in black like it was mourning time."Okay." I was expecting anything or something. I really thought there'd be more, but he only straight up apologized."Here, hold this." He gave me a sunflower to

Chapter 47: That man's son.Armani whisperrd to my ear, and I turn to Dante's son. "Thanks for the dance." I courtesy before leaving with him.On our way out I glance at Maria's table only to find out that she's left."What's going on?" I spoke in a hushed tone."Lucres has found our location. We have to leave." Lucres was one of the people Maria did business with. He was a scumbag who refused to complete a job worth billions, and Maria told him he won't be getting a dime from her because if Maria's giving you a job she expects perfection."How?" I panicked. "That man is insane." My orbs darted from side to side as we hurried down the stairs case of the hall where the limo was waiting."Serena!" I spun around and found Dante's son at the top of the staircase. "Please, wait." "We don't have time for this. Let's go." I listened to Armani, fuck Dante's son they could all go to hell."Is this for you?" I halted as I was about get into the limo.I spun around to my find my locket in his h

Chapter 48: Anastasia.Returning back to reality, I questioned him. "Did Adriano tell you this?" It made no sense though, Adriano and Luca loathed each other.Meeting Adriano years later with the same dark raven hair and green eyes I was convinced he was the one from that night, I tried to make him talk about it while we dated, but he always seemed confused. Was Luca?"Let me spell it out for you since you don't get it." His tone laced with a tad of derision. "I was the one from that night. The one who returned your locket."I faced him, one because I needed to see the look on his face while we had that conversation, two because I was tired of posing."The one who almost got shot. The one you ignored. The one whom you-""Okay, I get it. So?" I scoffed. "Why are you telling me this now?"I could see a smile at the corner of his lips. "Because I just had the chance to? And you haven't changed.""Yeah, old habits die hard." I narrowed my eyes at him. "So your brown hairs fake?""Not at a

Chapter 49: You shouldn't be here! A black jeep came in first, followed by a limo doused in black, then there was a dark blue car following after; this was the order in which Anastasia Di Salvo came into the mansion. She stepped down from the limo with gracefulness written all over her. Her long black velvet dress hugging her slim body, and over it was an expensive looking white fur coat. Pursing her red lips, she took a while to take in her surroundings through her dark rimmed shades, her silky brown hair blowing due to the breeze. Perhaps that was the way I viewed her- majestic. The way she carried herself spelled diva in a different way. I was amazed. Was she really in her late 40s? I wanted to be like her at her age, in physique though. 'Let's take a look at her demeanor first before we decide to be exactly like her.' My subconscious spoke to me. We, the family stood just upfront the mansion entrance to welcome her in. Took me back to the day when Rafaelle stood outside to wel

Chapter 50: It's always been them.The mansion suddenly transformed into a grave yard after the incident. It's been hours and Adriano hadn't left the room."I told you to stay back." Luca grunts facepalming. "You're not welcome here.""Who says she isn't?" Federico objected. "Anastasia you're a big part of the family.""I'm sorry I caused everyone to fight tonight." She smiled, but I could see her trying her best not to let her tears fall."I don't know why you had to come tell him what his mother wanted." Luca fumed. "It's stupid anyway.""What his mother wanted?" It was my turn to speak."Yes, he still think it's because of us that Dante left that day." She blinked severally. "He did for her.""Monica had blood cancer. There was almost no save, in a more literal sense there was none at all. Dante was guilty for how he treated her over the years after he found out, but she didn't want his pain increasing after watching her die. So she made him promise to leave until she's gone." Fred

Chapter 51: Let's blame Dante!I woke up before he did, our bodies remained the same as last night. I fell asleep watching him sleep. Kissing his hair, I slipped out of bed by gently taking his arms off my waist, replacing my body with a pillow."My love." His bass gruff morning voice filled my ears. 'Nope, this isn't the time for hormonal drives." I steady myself.'Taking one last peek at him I managed to creep out without waking him.First, morning coffee."Good morning." I smiled briefly before setting two mugs on the counter."How's he?" Mamma Lia asked. I knew Adriano was like a son to her, he would obviously be the first thing on her mind."Asleep." I pressed my lips together. "I need to arrange coffee though. I want him to take something warm immediately he's up.""Well, I'm making coffee. " She leaned against the large tall shelf.We both remained quiet for a while until she broke the silence. "Did he do or say anything?" I shook my head and she nodded. "Is she still here?"

Chapter 52: Room of portraits.We've stayed in bed for the past hour resting in each other's arms. Not wanting to get too comfortable, I suggested. "I think we should go downstairs now.""Yeah, we should." He said lazily, drawing circles around my stomach."Yeah."I captured his finger with mine lifting it from my stomach."Or we could stay in all day." He wriggled his eyebrows."No." I covered his face. "Don't do that you lazy man.""I'm lazy?" He held my hands."You are." I said to tick him off. "The truth is bitter, you might as well deal with it.""If I was lazy would my arms be strong enough to do this?" He dramatically pulled me toward him, lifting my body up then switching to bridal style in one go. I yelped with every turn, laughing as I hit his chest at the last. "Let me go." I swinged my legs but he remained unmoved.Without thinking I unknowningly hit the bruise on his arm and he hissed before gently putting me down. "Jeez, what happened to you?" I grimaced as I saw the ba

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?"

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

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
