Aurelia's POVJudah stalked towards me and held out his phone for me to see the picture. Derrick's hands were around my waist and my hands were on his chest, from the angle the picture was taken it looked like we were cozy and caressing each when I was actually trying to push him away."Care to explain what this means?" Judah demanded, I was too stunned to speak, I thought Camilla and her friends were too high to realize what was going on but they had planned this. "What? You've got nothing to say. Damnit, Aurelia, I do not want to jump to conclusions again, explain to me right now what's going on in this picture?" He smacked his hand on his thigh then ran his hand through his hair.I blew out hot air and closed my eyes for a minute, since Camilla pulled a fast one on me, all bets were off, I was going to drag her down with me."I'm sorry I lied, there were boys at the party but they came about ten minutes before I left. What you saw in that picture was actually me trying to free mys
Judah's POV"Nico, did you do what I asked?" I asked the big man as I came out of my car.He nodded his head, " He's in the basement, awaiting your arrival. I prepped him up nicely for you." " Good, I'll deal with him later, I have other important things to do. You can keep prepping him, just make sure he's not too overcooked, you know I like when there's still some fight and struggle in them." " Yes, I'm aware." Nico trotted after me then we went our separate ways, him down to the basement and I to my office. The elevator doors opened and Sabrina stood as I approached."Gavin and Dario are already waiting in your office, I've got some bad news though and it's everywhere on social media, Camilla posted a picture of Aurelia in another man's arms and she also posted some racy pictures from the party, showing the drugs and alcohol they consumed." She showed me her social media.Fuck family, fuck blood, Camilla was dead meat, when I get my hands on her, she's dead."The internet is blo
Judah's POVDario and Gavin let me vent out my anger on the wall, I ran my hands through my hair and sat back down. "I may have made all those confident statements to my day but I honestly don't know what to do about Camilla. I want to send her somewhere she can genuinely get help or at least where she'll be far far away from us?" " I say you ship her off to an underdeveloped or developing country and cut off all her money. She'll learn responsibility when she's broke and can't feed herself." Dario suggested. I scrunched up my face, thinking about his idea, it wasn't bad and I liked it."That's too harsh, I suggest sending her to a top-notch rehab and cutting off all her access to money and the outside world." Gavin offered, his was nice as well but if my sister was anywhere in the States, my parents would find her and bring her back home."Gavin, yours is good but if my sister stays in the US, my parents especially my mother will find her, she won't let her grow up. Dario's suggest
Aurelia's POVShoot, she was pissed. I quickly called again and she didn't picked up until after three tries, " Mom, I can explain. I know it seems like I was doing something inappropriate in the picture but I wasn't." " The picture was clear as day, you had your hands on his chest and he had his hands wrapped around your waist. There's nothing else to think." " Please let me explain." I quickly gave her a breakdown of what had happened, I didn't bother covering up for Camilla and her friends. I told her the truth about everything from the start to the end.Hannah was silent for a few minutes, " That's a lot to unpack. Did all these things really happen? Are you sure Camilla did them?"" Mom, it may seem like I'm trying to divert the blame but I'm telling the truth. I had no part in anything that was going on, I was just a pawn in the game." " But Camilla would never do th…" She cut off and stayed quiet for a minute then I began to hear sobs."Mom, are you okay? Are you crying? Ple
Aurelia's POVHannah's body stilled and I moved away from her. I could see her vibrating with anger as Camilla prattled. "Shut up, just shut up!" Hannah yelled and Camilla jumped. Her eyes widened and she watched her mother in shock. I had never seen Hannah this angry before." Mom, did you just yell at me? What's going on? Why would you do that?" Camilla placed a hand on her chest and acted like she was hurt. This was probably the first time Hannah had talked to her in that manner.Hannah got off the sofa angrily and stalked towards Camilla, with the anger radiating off her, I wouldn't be surprised if she hit her. I followed and quickly held Hannah's arm pulling her back."Why won't I talk to you like that when you keep behaving the way you do? I've tried so hard to help you, I've been a good and kind mother, I gave you freedom, and I give you love but it seemed like I was just wasting my time because you keep disappointing me. When you came back from Italy, I was so happy, I though
Judah's POV" Fuck, fuck, fuck! Gio, you better start talking and you better explain in detail, if you know what's good for you." I growled, Sabrina moved aside, putting space between us. She brought out her phone and tapped away.Gio gave me the rundown of what had happened and my head hurt, my blood boiled and I saw red. "Why did Aurelia go there? I specifically banned her from going to that house. And you, why did you drive her there? What the hell is wrong with you? Does no one listen to me anymore?" I smacked my hand on the desk.Gio remained silent on the other side for a minute," I'm sorry but Aurelia demanded it, she said your mother was in pain and she needed her." " Who the fuck do you work for, me or Aurelia? Since when do you fucking take orders from her?" " I work for you, Capo." He responded."Then fucking do as I say. I'm coming home now, you too better sit still and wait for me. I want to see what damage Camilla did to Aurelia before I start thinking about how I'm g
Judah's POVI dropped her hand as if I had touched a hot pan, "Shit, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. You're already hurt." "That's my Kindle. Do you know how important it is to me? How could you just toss it away like it's trash?" She struggled to move away but I blocked her path and refused to bulge."I don't care what it is, if it's damaged, I'll get you another one, don't worry about it." " I don't want a replacement, I want my Kindle. You better pray it's not cracked, I'm already pissed." She narrowed her eyes at me and winced at the act."Forget about the fucking Kindle for a minute, what the hell happened to you?" I spat out.She looked away, " You already know what Happ to me." Her words came out mumbled." I don't know and even if I do, I want to hear what actually happened. I have a feeling there's more to the story than what I heard." Aurelia sighed, she pulled the duvet up to her neck, " I don't even know where to even start." "How about from the beginning?" I
Judah's POV"What! Where in Hades' name did you get such an absurd idea? I don't hurt women, there are other ways to punish someone than to physically hurt them. I have plans for Camilla, by the time I'm done with her, she would wish I had been physical with her." I wanted to let her in on what I had planned for Camilla but I didn't want her feeling guilty and then she'd beg me to be more lenient."Are you sure? I was worried because everyone has been talking about how you're going to be so cruel with your punishment and I can't stop thinking about it." She closed her eyes, rubbed her temples then yawnedI cupped her cheeks, " Don't worry yourself about Camilla. Whatever punishment she gets, she deserves it. You should get some rest, it's been a tough and long day for you. Do you want me to get anything for you from the kitchen?" God, what the hell was going on with me, why was I acting this way?She shook her head, " I'm fine, I just have a little headache but I already took a pill.
