KIAN

An awkward silence hung over the table we were all seated at.

Darryl was at my side, probably praying deep down in his mind for this to quickly come to an end, considering that his eyes had been glued to his phone the entire minutes we'd been here.

As for me, my fingers drummed against the smooth surface before me, quietly counting the numbers thirty backwards to calm down my nerves, and when it finally hit zero, I struck the last drumming a little louder than the usual rhythm, drawing all four pairs of eyes towards my direction.

“So, no one's going to seriously talk about how the fuck I'm suddenly having a wedding tomorrow?”

Grandfather flashed me an immediate glare from his high seat, but I was too angry to care this time. My whole future was being bargained on a fucking table here.

“Mr. Moretti.” My grandfather called out, making me refocus my glare to the man who'd been suspiciously quiet for the past twenty minutes now—almost as if he was on the edge for making something g

    CHAPTER 20KIAN“Kian!” Darryl exclaimed to warn me but I was too pissed now to care anymore.I lunged for his neck immediately, successfully catching him off guard and slashed his left leg, making him groan in pain, but just when I was about to go for his face, a quick blow neutralised my action, sending me backwards.“You've got some nerves, dear brother.” He spat out, his usual playful demeanor was now gone, and his real colours were now exposed.“Don't you dare fucking call me that, or I'll rip out your fucking tongue.” I warned, my blade still dripping with his blood and I glared at his scoffing figure. “You fucking lost privileges to that title.”“How touchè, I’m only here to pass a message to you and your little wife.” He smirked. “Seems like your wife has already taken a liking to me given that she just got into a deal with me.”Don't listen to him, Kian.You know how fucking psycho he is, he's always getting into people's heads.“Fuck you and your deals.” I snapped and threw

    Surrender ANYA“What did you do with my brother?” I gritted through my teeth, struggling to break free from the chair he'd taped me to.The “friend” of Kian turned to me, a slashed brow cocked lazily, “Do you really value his life or yours? I mean, you're in the shittiest position yet, and you're thinking of someone else. How honorable.”“I did what you said, so answer me.” I spat out, glaring back at him in the eyes despite how scared I was deep down, how vulnerable I was with his henchman putting some damn syringe to my neck as a threat.The man gave a scoff and rubbed his chin. “What if I said he was doing just fine, doing just perfect, better than he'd ever been, would you believe me?”My brows knitted into a confused frown, but seeing the slow smirk on the corner of his lips, I realized that I was being played and stood my ground with a sneer. “No, I wouldn't. I know the mafia too damn well to believe one bullshit you're saying. I don't even believe you're a friend to Kian. Is h

    ANYA It hurts.Why does everything hurt?I can't open my eyes and move a single muscle, yet somehow, I could hear the voices swirling all around me in hushed whispers.My heart pounded in my chest at the worst case scenarios that started to flood in the back of my mind. Wait, was I kidnapped? Tied with a blindfold? Hit so hard that I can't remember what had happened lastly?No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't pick out what they were whispering about, but one of the voices stood out the most, making me heave in relief.“Ca-cassius?” I choked out, my voice dry and hoarse as though I'd been dehydrated for days. Which made me wonder just how long I'd been in bed.And why.Almost immediately, there were some shuffles of feet, followed by the side of the bed slowly sinking in, like someone was now besides me. “Oh my God, you're finally awake! I'm here, Anya, I'm not going anywhere.” He exhaled softly, holding my hand as I slowly sat upright. “I thought you were going to be knocke

    CHAPTER 16ANYA“Why aren't you eating, Anya?” Dad's voice boomed across the table, making me grip the fork in my hands even tighter.Because I can't help but wonder why you had to throw me in the very mess that you created dad!“I'm not hungry…” I mumbled, trying to keep my voice steady but the crack at the end gave it away.“This is the third time today. What tantrum are you trying to throw, Anya?” He asked, his eyes narrowed down into a daring glare as I lifted my eyes to answer him.But mum was quick to beat me to it…like always.“I remember Anya doesn't like having meatballs in her meals.” Mum cuts in with a smile, drawing dad's awareness to the stabbed marks in the ones on my plate.He frowned, clearly not happy with my picky habits. “That will have to change this instant because the Silvas are known for their high tastes in Italian foods, especially ones like these. We wouldn't want to cause a stir for them now, would we?”A stir? Was that all I was to them?A scandal?“But the

    Chapter 15KIAN“Are you alone right now?” He asked, his voice cold and tight with urgency. A complete contrast to what his annoying commanding tone sounded like.I scrunched my face into a frown and side glanced at Darryl who seemed to be interested in the suits in his hold more than I was.“Uh…no? I'm with Darryl. At the shop like you requested.” I pressed my lips into a thin line. “Is there a problem? Did you hear something?”“Okay, I need you to listen in closely, Kian.” He responded, stressing out my name like he needed my full attention to whatever he was about to say. This made me straighten up and lean in closer, a sense of dread creeping in my gut at where all this was going.“I'm listening.”“Have you seen appearances of men in matching suits lately?” He inquired, the sound of fingers drumming against a desk echoing through the call line. “Matching ties? Watches? Rings?”“What?” I immediately turned my head to peer around, frustration hitting when I realized that I was still
