Isabella POV

As soon as I hear the elevators ping I dive for my phone, my finger scrolling through the messages, some from work, one from my mother

 

“Have fun” the message is followed by a winking emoji, I don’t know who taught her that.

 

I immediately go to my contact session dialing Bianca's phone but it goes straight to voicemail.

 

“Bianca I swear you won’t believe where I ended up last night. At Dominic DeLuca’s penthouse!! Call me back urgently!” I say into the phone ending the phone recording.

 

Soon I hear another pink, and I immediately walk out of the room, My eyes meeting with the first balcony inside the house, I look down my eyes coming in contact with a maid.

 

“Good morning mam, I’m here to set your bath and with your clothes” She raises a blush pink suit in her hand at me.

 

“I’ll be right down there” I stop her walking down the stairs, “Thank you but I can set my bath myself,”  I grab the suit and I notice in her other hand a pair of stilettos red bottoms

 

 

“Okay mam, the chef will be here soon to prepare breakfast, and I’m sent to clean also, is there anything else I could do for you?” She blinks at me, a weird permanent smile on her face.

 

“No, think you, go ahead,” I say moving out of her way.

 

She heads upstairs and the suit folded across my arms, I turn around to the elevator doors opening again, this time a man in a chef uniform coming in.

 

“Good morning Ma, I am Chef Pascal and will be your chef for today, is there anything specific you want for breakfast?”

 

“no, go crazy” I shrug turning around and heading back upstairs to the bedroom, The maid has dressed the bed the neatest I’ve ever seen a bed, and currently dusting.

 

“I’ll be right outside mam,” she says scurrying away.

 

I quickly have my bath, simply brushing my hair into a rough ponytail, after all, I’ll be going to some saloon at 3 pm.

 

I wear the suit, checking myself out in the mirror and I’m surprised to find out the suit fits perfectly, “how did he know my size?”  That is so weird I think.

 

I head downstairs, and the chef is done with breakfast, I gobble up the food in a rush staring at the time, already almost late.

 

My voicemail from Bianca has still not been replied to when I finally head downstairs and into the car Dominic arranged for me.

 

I make it to work in record time and my assistant is immediately at my side rattling off the meetings I have to deal with today.

“You have a meeting with the Factory manager from 2 pm till 4:30 pm” she continues

 

“Scratch that, I’m busy from 2 pm and I need out of the building by then, move his meeting till tomorrow morning”  I instruct pushing the doors of my office door open, I relax in my seat and of course, I’m key with daunting eyes from the employee, their mouths probably filled with so much to say.

 

“Yes mam, and also, you got those” She points to the far end of the desk where there’s another bouquet of red roses this time wrapped in a box along with a wrapped present beside it.

 

“Who brought this?” I turn to her.

 

She picks up the card reading it out loud “Mr. D” she reads out loud and she looks like she’s about to do some girly squeal with me.

 

“Thank you” I kid at her grabbing the white card.

 

“You may go,” I tell her watching as she leaves through the glass doors.

The cold blade presses against my neck and my eyes widen in fear “Dominic!” I cry out my eyes filling with tears. “Francesca, there is no need to do this,” he says cautiously, his finger pressing and wriggling unsteadily on the gun. Confusion shines in his eyes as Francesca presses me closer to her body, taking a step back as she uses me as her shield. “You will stop right there, you will not make any single move” she yells out, her voic

What are you doing?” Grace takes a step back, her voice shaking. “Don’t fucking call me that Grace!!” I hit back at her taking a step backwards “Dominic, this needs to stop, why would you do this? And to the woman you are about to marry? Your wife?” my mother takes a step forward My eyes narrow at her and she takes a step back in fear, gulping slightly. “Stay out of this Mom, this is between me and Grace” I turn the gun back to her, my fingers tightening around the hilt of the gun. “And I have only one wife, I love one woman only and that's Bella!” I yell out, my voice vibrating with anger “If you didn't want t

    ISABELLA POV I stand at the top of the hill, completely hidden from view of Dominic and the wedding below. My eyes move around the scene, I know this is my only opportunity to go back to Dominic, to be in his arms again. My heart aches as guests start trooping in. Their most expensive dresses and suits wrapping their body, wide smiles on their faces like Dominic’s wife did not just go missing a few weeks back. I slouch on the chair, my emotions getting the best of me, tears fill my eyes as the double doors open. “Dominic” I gasp watching him walk in, he pays no attention to anyone else, his fingers glide over a perfectly tailored tux, and he unbuttons his jacket as he walks past everyone His commanding aura has everyone quiet, watching, holding their breaths like he could pull out his gun at any time to shoot everyone. I hold my breath too. He gets to the alter and I'm immediately locked on his face. A smile almost peeks from my lips, and sweat covers my skin but I sha

My eyes blinging with gold and my lips a hot red color I know Dominic will not be able to resist , i continue to spin around in the mirror, admiring the woman I about to become.“Mrs DeLuca alas” I whisper My dream wedding dress is hung on a mannequin on the side and I smile even wider as my eyes land on the decoration downstairs. “Today is going to be a great day!” I sing spreading my arms in my robe. The double doors open and Francesca walks in, a black dress draped across her body. She explained to me earlier the reason for wearing a black dress and that’s because it would be Dominic’s funeral but what she doesn't know is it will be her own funeral. “Why aren't you ready?” she frowns shutting the door behind her “Now that the door is locked do you want to actually tell me what you want?” I roll my eyes sitting across the couch as I stare up at her “Bianca is still missing, we can't have her running in here

I proceed to shower Rafaelle with affection and attention even though it makes me feel disgusted with myself but I go ahead and do it. Days pass by and finally the night to the wedding arrives and he decides to do the most shocking thing. I guess my pretending skills are top notch. “I am only allowing you to roam the bedroom and the kitchen, anywhere else where I can't lock you in a room, you will be tied to a chair as usual,” he says, removing the ropes from across my wrist. The skin is red and I turn to him with a raised brow, “So I guess this means you trust me” I send him a small smile. He nods, “You have been good, you've not tried to contact anyone or even tried to escape when we went down to the beach.” He walks across the counter. “Thank you, Rafaelle,” I cough, watching him pause in front of t
