Wrecking My Husband Chapter 52
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

Chapter 53: Room of portraits (2)"We could always have the painting kept in the room till a new artist paints me." I told them."Fair point." Frederic commented.Adriano did not seem too pleased, but he agreed. "Fine, I'll get the artist here by tomorrow."That soon? He wasn't having any of it for sure."Well, let's take it there." Frederic cheered. "I bet Adriano never mentioned that room to you.""It's not important." He replied.Frederic shook his head, leading the way. "The room has existed for decades. Every family member has their portrait or painting in the room. The size of the frames determine the person's importance hence the size of your frame."It felt like a do over tour. The Di Salvo's had many absurd family traditions, my amusement grew with each addition.Weird, it was just beside Adriano's office, but I never took the time to bother about the room.Luca asked. "Who's with the key?""I'll be back." Adriano grumbled, no matter how ruthless he was, he had a tad bit of r

Chapter 54: Love and Confusion."Our willpower was weak compared to the rules of the underworld. After a year, the marriage happened anyway. Dante left Monica on their wedding night. He didn't come home for days, and because Monica's family believed that he was with Anastasia, they sought to seek revenge on their family. They suffered greatly because of the fight. Hence, one of the reasons Anastasia's father hates us."Federico continued. It was insane, their storylines matched like a news report. "Dante had to come out of hiding in the end. He came home different. He treated Monica like she didn't exist, he would not speak to her or acknowledge her at all. We all tried to make it work between them, yet he refused to have anything to do with her. A few years after Monica got pregnant, we were all shocked.""No one was expecting that," Frederic added. "Father was the happiest, he thought they had finally settled everything. N

Chapter 55: Her Mark On Me.Adriano's POV.♡￣✿The fight happened right at the casino where his man got shot. Pleading with Nikolai was impossible, so I didn't bother myself with trying.Luca and I managed to leave unscathed after landing a few on Niko himself. We weren't sure that he was dead, but even if he did survive it all. It was made clear to him that his Mafia couldn't stand next to mine. We were just not on par with each other."You can head home. I'm not going home like this." I told Luca. My wife shouldn't have to see her husband battered like this; with blood on my shirt, bruises on my body and more. It's something she'd have to get used to overtime, but for now, the best thing is to put her at ease."You have something else to attend to?" He asked, deep pressing a piece of cloth against his bleeding wound.I nodded in response. As much as I wanted t

Chapter 56: Wasted in the morning.I put the duvet over us properly. Leaning side ways, I stared at her. She looked so peaceful sleeping. It was always something unbelievable for me; that she was mine. I inched closer to her and got a whiff of... vodka? Had she been drinking? Why?I put my hands on her cheeks and they were hot. She was burning with a fever.Getting up from bed so I could get someone to check-up on what could be the problem, warm hands pulled me back."I didn't mean to wake you." I whispered, her siren-like eyes were half closed, and she had a big grin on her face.My wife was a crazy drunk, no doubt about that.To my surprise, she kissed my hands."Come." She gave me a childish pout that I found insanely cute.I got back into bed with her and kissed her forehead. Running my fingers through her ha

Chapter 57: Three wishes.I masked my current emotion, putting on a much more confident look. I picked up the documents and properly arranged them in a bid to completely ignore his presence.I took in a deep breath as I could sense him inching closer toward me. He placed a tray on the table adjacent to the bed, and said nothing for a while. The tension within me grew thinking about which aspect he was going to point out first.'We should just continue to do what we always have. Pretend.' My subconscious said within me. "Aren't you going to say anything?" Unable to bear it anymore, I ended up breaking the deafening silence in the room."At least face me if you're going to talk to me." He replied. "What are you doing here when you're supposed to be resting?""I j-just." I struggled with a simple sentence. 'Think of something.' I scolded myself.

Chapter 58: The drive."Ngh." I pressed the sides of my head, still feeling woozy."If you're going to pass out again, I can take you to your room." Olivia was nonchalant unlike the first day I saw her. She looked different, acted differently. One could address her as a real chameleon."Just wait till this is over." I gritted."I can't wait if I'm being honest. It's been a long time since I got challenged." She replied indifferently."Whatever you have to show me better be important." I spoke annoyed as she led me to the wall filled with portraits of everyone in the family. The one I saw the first day I came in as a bride."It is, and this is the best time to figure out something. There's hardly anyone moving around now."To this, I said nothing."Here." We stood in front of a large portrait with both Adriano's parents in it."A portrait, really?""Would it kill you to listen to me first?" She rolled her eyes. " We were cleaning two days ago, all the paintings were removed from the wa
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 59
Chapter 59: Hidden.Adriano wasn't bluffing when he said he wouldn't give me any rest. I was completely sore after, so much that he had to bathe me before sleeping. My body was marked with love bites, especially in places that were pretty very visible. He did not allow me the benefit of touching him to my satisfaction, he was rather dominant in every way. Taking all the control, turning me into jelly.Walking was also a struggle as well. I had to put on a formidable look in order to hide whatever he had done to me. I slept off forgetting about everything I had to check for. His wardrobe, the unremovable painting and gathering information.I turned sleepily, too lazy to open my eyes. Warm fingers tickled the skin of my neck, then there were soft lips trailing down."Hmmm." I groaned, definitely unready to open my eyes."Tesoro mio- my darling" His lips grazed my ear."Ple

Wrecking My Husband Authors Note-92
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
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 90
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
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 88
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
