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.
Judah's POVI glanced over my shoulder, " Oh I'm not done with you. I just realized I haven't seen mother yet. I should say hi before I deal with you. I plan to be here with you for a long time." I give her my best imitation of Joker's smile and exited the room.Mom's room was unlocked, and knocked, " Mom, it's Judah. Can I come in?" There was some rustling on the other side of the door for some seconds, " Yeah, come in baby." I slid the door ajar and entered, Mom lay on the bed, a wet towel on her forehead."Mom, you okay?" I moved swiftly to sit on the armchair. " Come sit on the bed with me." She lifted her body and sat up. I sighed and did as she said."What's the towel for?" I reached over and touched it, it was cool."I'm having a bit of a headache, I don't want to take any drugs so I decided to do it the old-fashioned way, I can already feel it working. Enough talk about me, how's Aurelia? Is she still in pain? Does she need to see a doctor? You should call a doctor to check
Judah's POV Father's eyes flickered from me to Camilla, I leaned against the wall, prepared for his outburst."What the fuck? Camilla, why are you on the ground? Someone better start talking before I lose my shit." He banged his hand on the door.Camilla's eyes widened, and a little smile formed on her lips, she must have realized that Father wasn't aware of what she had done. Her eyes filled with tears and she sniffled, " Daddy, I don't know what I did wrong. I just had a little misunderstanding with Judah's wife and he ordered that they should lock me in this room.Father's head rotated and his glare almost stung," Judah, what the hell? Realize your sister right now. I knew that wife of yours did something to you. You're turning against your family because of her." I crossed my arms over my chest and stood straight, " I will do no such thing, Camilla, oh please stop with the lies, it's becoming pathetic. You fought with Aurelia, you assaulted her when she came here. She has bruis
Aurelia's POVMy face ached twice as hard as it had before I slept. I groaned as I tried to adjust myself, I had slept on the sore part of my face. I tried to raise myself but I was too weak, maybe I would just stay in that position for another hour, my stomach growled in disagreement. My fingers brushed my phone, I checked the time and it was already time for dinner, the painkillers must have knocked me out for a long time. I gathered all the strength I had and went downstairs.Judah sat at the head of the dining table, he was bent over, focused on his phone. I pulled out my chair quietly and sat down."Aurelia, how are you feeling? Are you still sore?" He asked, he flipped his phone over on the table and watched me with keen eyes. How the hell had he known I had entered d, I had tried to be as mute as possible."A little although I'm feeling much better. I'm still sleepy though, I think it's the drugs." Lisa and Opal served our food, as they worked, their eyes were fixed on my fac
Aurelia's POV" No way, absolutely not. We're going somewhere else. I refuse to go in there." Judah gripped the steering wheel, veins popping out of his neck."Oh come on, you can't refuse, it's my choice, I've never been to an amusement park before, "" I'm not going in, it's too risky, this is a public place, and I have a lot of enemies, if anyone finds out that I'm here, it's going to be a disaster." I pressed my lips together and rolled my eyes, " Don't you think I thought about that? I called ahead and rented the park." He whipped his head and stared at me, " You rented the entire park, hold on, I don't think I'm hearing this properly. You paid money for only two of us to be in the park."" Yeah, duh, do you think I'm going to come to a public place with a walking death trap on my hand, no offense. I care about innocent people and besides, you gave me a black card for a reason, what's the use of having all that money if I don't spend it on something that we'll both enjoy? Now c
