Author's POV
Sarah's eyes widened in shock, fear and panic when she looked at her husband. He was the same man from that night who killed someone very brutally.
She married to the mafia boss.
He was looking ahead, not even once he glanced at her. In bright lights she could see him clearly. His cold grey eyes were drawn in alcohol in bloodshot red color, Clenched jaw like he is trying to break it. He was looking very unhappy by this marriage and Sarah could sense that.
"You may kiss the bride now..."
Priest announced and Sarah started shaking in fear.
Xavier's fist tightened, he didn't even wanted to see her face let alone kiss her. He looked at his bride, she was looking down and Vail was hiding her face, With reasonable height distance he could only see her hair and not face.
Xavier grabbed her hand and kissed it with scowl on his face. He didn't wait for a second after that and walked away.
"Send your daughter with Ace... I don't have time for fucking formalities..."
Xavier said to her father on the way and drove away from the mansion.
Everyone stood stunned at his behavior. He didn't even bother to see her. Sarah heard people whispering and mumbling but she was relieved that he didn't kissed her. after years of struggle and pain she was now immune to the so called society judgments. with closed eyes she took a shaky breath of relief thinking he has no interest in her and she is safe...
But for now, what next ?...
She looked at her father angrily.
"I want to talk... Now..."
She left the aisle and her father followed her.
They went to his office.
"How could you dad... He is a criminal, a murderer. How can you marry me off to him. Why?..."
she yelled at him.
Her father glared at her.
"Watch your tone Sarah... And listen, you want answers right ?... It's no use of hiding it now.... Xavier is a mafia boss and so am I!...."
He said and she looked at him in shock.
"You are What ?..."
She whispered in disbelief.
"Yes, I am mafia and you are mafia's daughter. Till now I kept this thing hidden from you but I think it's time to tell you everything. Your brother was supposed to take after me but he is in coma. Even if he recovers he won't be able to succeed. Doctors are not sure that when he wakes up he will be in his right State of mind..."
"So ?..."
She asked with glossy eyes but accusations were prominent in her voice.
"So I needed someone who can handle my mafia. Natasha and you couldn't do that, Xavier is ready to do that in return his uncle asked for a bride who can give them an heir. We will give them an heir and they will provide us security..."
"How could you dad ?..."
She cried, her world was literally spinning.
"I am not getting young anymore Sarah. My enemies are waiting for a chance to kill me, to kill you, to kill our family. I have done this for everyone, for you. Xavier can protect you..."
He yelled at her frustratingly.
"You hid this from the beginning. That's why I grew up with the Grandma in London and not here with you. Isn't it dad ?."
She said venomously.
"Yes, it was best way to keep you safe and away from everything..."
He accepted.
"It was all about mafia, since the beginning. You never cared about business. It was just a cover to hide your illegal business and black money..."
She yelled.
"Yes it's all about Mafia Sarah. But don't worry I won't take this business away from you. You will continue as a CEO. I have signed all my business to your name, it's all yours..."
He slide the papers in front of her.
"Is this some kind of bribe. Take this and be happy kind of deal..."
She scoffed.
"No, it's not. I believe in you Sarah, I know you are capable to manage Everything. I know I never praised you or Said something which will encourage you but I am proud of you my child. Trust me..."
His voice softened.
"I don't need your fake and manipulating words. I hate you dad."
She sobbed throwing the papers away.
"That's why I kept you away from this world. I knew you will hate me after this..."
He looked away guiltily.
"Not now dad... I hate you from the beginning... You are selfish, you only thinks about yourself..."
She yelled at him.
"Call me whatever you want Sarah... I did what I can to save my family..."
He sighed and turned around.
"This is your life now. Xavier is your husband and you should be a responsible wife. You have a business to handle and must be a capable CEO, it's yours until you can handle..."
"I don't want this... I don't want anything, let me go. I can't stay with a criminal..."
She cried.
Peter gave her a stern look.
"In mafia freedom means death Sarah. This is your life and you must accept it . You should be thankful that I am not treating you as an object like other mafia's do to their daughters. I have given you half of my empire. To you not Natasha, at least be grateful for that. And don't ever try to run, it might take me a week to find you but Xavier will do that within a day. He is very strict about his reputation so don't do anything to anger him..."
"I never asked for your property and reputation dad. All I wanted is love, your love and blessings... Which you never gave me..."
She sounded defeated.
"And now you marry me off to a man who didn't even looked at me..."
"It may take time but it'll be fine... You will be fine Sarah..."
He stated and she looked at him disgusted.
"Now when I am seeing this disgust in your eyes that making me think that I was right to hide this from you. You would have hate me..."
"It doesn't matter because I already hate you... From the beginning..."
She wiped her tears.
"And don't worry I won't run now... Not anymore..."
Peter liked the confidence in her voice. She picked up the property papers from the floor.
"You know what... You have already destroyed my life so I think at least I deserve this..."
She said showing him property papers. She can't let go her security due to her broken emotional state, after all this will be the only thing which will help her to come out strong. She won't let go this business and her remaining power and control over her life.
Peter Smirked.
"Yes you deserve that... It's yours, you have worked hard for that and__"
Ace cleared his throat to make his presence known.
"I think it's time to leave ma'am..."
He said with small smile while Sarah looked at him blankly. All her confidence drained away just with his words.
'it's time to go...'
