All Chapters of The Mourning Mafia: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

As the sun clashed at the horizon, begining to heat up the valley, decked up in a silk blue skirt and top, complimenting the environment of the beach Simone stepped on the little bridge—the set-up of the first couple’s shot. The staff limited to the lighting man, cameraman and one stylist for her, while there was no sign of any setup team as they surrounded her during her photo shoot. She scanned the area and found Ashton doing his pushups on the sand. His back exposed to the sun while his concentration rested on his workout rather than anyone else.Simone took a good amount of time in studying what was in front of her; the vibe of mystery circulated him since last night now which made her doubt his intentions more. He was ridiculously quiet and off from the moment he walked inside the cottage; the dinner was also a silent affair until he received Alisha's call and left without a word to converse with his daughter in privacy. She hadn’t seen him after that until now where he asked her

A time when he’s supposed to make the choice between justice and heritage, Ashton found himself trapped in an uncontrollable and an unthinkable situation. Despite wanting the upper hand, he was fixed in a place where he saw no way out apart from staring into the hazel eyes of the woman who looked at the edge of her suppressible self. Her one hand forwarded towards him as she waited for him to give his word of support to her. The line of decision was complex but based on what bit he heard from her, he decided to make a choice. A choice which no one would appreciate maybe, but he knew he had to do it if it meant providing justice to someone. “I give you my word that if you have all the reliable reasons behind your work, then I won't ever step in between. Gladly, Glacier is my Dad's heritage, but a mere place is not above humanity." He kept his palm over here, and she clasped it tightly, nodding her head. She urged him to sit on the recliner, and she sat on the floor beside his knees,

A deadly silence brew between them; it was gut-wrenching for Simone as she expected an immediate reply from the man who claimed to be in love with her but as she gauged Ashton’s face, she knew he was debating whether to accept or reject her. Of course, saying and doing were two different things and she wasn’t a nescient to either of the two scenarios. As the clock kept on ticking away, her patience was drifting away as well, and when he wouldn't even care to utter a word, anger started to take the form of rage. She’d lived with rage, and hate was a natural element to her now. When things didn't go her way, her abhorrence took over her entire immune system, ready to crush the very existence of that person who caused her to feel that one emotion she didn’t want to feel.“You won't!” She decided and said it out loud.“Still after everything your mighty Alicia did, you want to dig the flag of loyalty for her; isn’t it?” She taunted with pure sarcasm dripping in her tone.Ashton looked at

Several Years ago (Flashback)The Monday morning was a hectic affair in the city of Vienna where several people tried to get back to their work mode after spending an amazing weekend with their loved ones. Drowned in her ambition, Alicia was a stranger to this feeling for all she cared was herself and the things she loved. It has been more than a year since she was living separately from her husband, but there wasn't a tiny particle in her that craved his absence. To say that she was a wife was certainly tricky because the fine woman showed the least sign of missing anyone. Keeping the same straight face, she drove across the city with a determination not giving away the slightest of inkling to her thought process.Halting the car in front of Alison’s Fashion Boutique, she stepped inside the huge room clinking her stilettos on the tiled floor, gaining the attention of the staff as well as the woman instructing them. Surprised to see Johanna Walkers in place of Alison, she frowned b

Heads bowed down, fingers knotted in their laps, the guys and girls sat in the living room of the farm house at the dining looking lost and confused. They returned earlier in the morning, tired and frowning to see Shane and Shanzy having an argument, but none of them dared to intervene. The men felt sympathetic for the man who lost his wife in a mishap as such as a gang rape, while they understood the girls fear, but they didn't understand why she wouldn't want to take a risk for love. Why do people become so selfish at times to ignore the love that once, showered on them! Ashton remained quiet and they all began eating. He didn't invite his mother to the farm house, nor he forgave her for hiding so many things from him. All he did was to hug his Alisha and cry for a few minutes before taking her along with him and rushing to the farm house while the others came to give him support.Seeing them all lost, Rex decided to put a little ease in the environment, and clearing his throat he
