Claimed By The Five Mafia Brothers Chapter 57
Aria POVThe press is gone by 10:22am. The lights. The champagne. The fake smiles. All of it packed up and driven away. And now the house is too quiet. Like the silence after a gunshot.I’m still in the blue dress. Still holding my hair tie in my pocket. My knuckles are white. Victoria didn’t say a word to me after the last flash. She just walked upstairs with Luca. His hand on the small of her back. Like she belongs there. My stomach turns.10:24am. I hear their voices upstairs. Hers first. Soft. Then his. Low. Then a door closing. I don’t think. I just move. My feet take me upstairs before my brain can catch up. To their room. _Our room_, he said. Temporary.I knock once. Hard. No answer. I open it anyway.They’re standing too close. Victoria with her hand on his chest. Luca with his jaw tight. And on the dresser behind them? My hair ties. All three of them. Laid out in a line like trophies. My blood goes cold. Then hot.“What is this,” I say.Victoria turns. Slow. “Oh, Aria. We wer

Aria POV I don’t go downstairs, Not until 8:47am. Not until I hear the cameras. The press is here early, Of course they are. Victoria would’ve invited them for breakfast. Those are the kind of things she likes doing. I can hear them from my room. Laughter. Glasses clinking. Luca’s voice. Low. Calm. And Victoria. Bright. Perfect. _The happy family._ I look at myself in the mirror. Blue dress. The one Luca said he liked. I hate that I listened. I hate that I still want him to notice. The three hair ties are in the drawer. Locked. But I can still feel them. 7:59am. A knock. Not Victoria this time. His knock. Three slow taps. “Aria.” Luca. I don’t open the door. “Aria, open up. We need to talk before they start.” I walk to the door. Unlock it. But I don’t step back. He’s in black. Suit. Hair down. Messy like he ran his hands through it all night. No hair tie. No trace of mine on him. His eyes drop to my dress. Then back to my face. “Are you okay? Victoria said you had a rough nigh

Aria POVI don’t sleep.I sit on the floor until 4am with my hair tie in my hand. Mine. Even if it smells like her perfume now. At 5am I shower until the water goes cold. At 6am I braid my hair without it. At 6:55am I hear footsteps in the hall.7:02am. There’s a knock. Soft. Then the door opens before I can say anything.Victoria.She’s already dressed. Cream dress. Hair curled. Makeup perfect. Like she slept eight hours and woke up to win. She’s holding a mug. Two mugs.“Morning,” she says. Sweet. Too sweet. “I made coffee. Thought we could start the day right. You know, for the press.”I don’t move from my bed. “I’m not drinking coffee with you.”She smiles and sets both mugs on my desk anyway. “You don’t have to. It’s just… Luca asked me to check on you. He’s worried you didn’t sleep.”He didn’t ask.He was in the living room all night. I heard him.I stay quiet.She walks around my room like she owns it. Touches the frame on my desk. My mom. Moves it half an inch to the left. “Yo

Aria POVI told myself I wasn’t going to go in there. I told myself a hundred times on the walk down the hall. Don’t look. Don’t stop. Don’t do this to yourself.But the door was open. And the light was on. And that black hair tie was sitting on the nightstand like a dare.11:14pm. The house is quiet. Victoria went upstairs an hour ago. Luca is in the living room. I heard the TV. Low. He’s not sleeping.I shouldn’t be here. This is their room now. That’s what she said. _Our room._My hand shakes when I push the door wider.It smells different. Her perfume. Heavy. Sweet. Overpowering my mom’s candles. Overpowering everything. The bed is made. Too neat. Hospital corners. Like no one’s slept in it yet. Like they’re waiting for the first night to mean something.I don’t look at the bed. I look at the nightstand.It’s there. Black. Elastic. Frayed on one end. _Mine._Not his. Mine.The one I used for my braids.The one Luca found on my bathroom counter the day I left Few days ago The one

Aria POVThe table is too long. That’s the first thing I notice. Eight chairs. Only three of us. And the space between us feels like miles.7:30pm. Dinner. Victoria set it herself. Candles. White plates. Wine I didn’t ask for. She’s at the head of the table. Of course she is. Cream dress. Hair perfect. Like this is a photoshoot and not a war.Luca is on her right. He hasn’t looked at me once. His jaw is tight. His hand is in a fist under the table. I bet he still has the hair tie in it. I’m across from him. At the other end. Like I’m a guest in my own house.“Food’s getting cold,” Victoria says. Bright. She gestures to the plates. Pasta. Salad. Bread. All the things my mom used to make. I don’t pick up my fork.“Aria,” Victoria says. My name in her mouth sounds wrong. “I made this for you. I thought... family dinner, right? We should start somewhere.” Family. That word again.Luca finally moves. He reaches for the water. Drinks. Sets it down too hard. Still no eye contact.“Did you li

Luca POVI hear her door before I see it. The soft click of the lock. Like she’s sealing herself in.10:12am Victoria walked out of the master with that smile. 10:47am and I still haven’t moved from the kitchen. The coffee is cold. My hands are shaking.I can’t keep doing this. Not after what she just did. Not after Aria saw her clothes on the floor.I walk down the hall. Stop in front of Aria’s door. The wood is between us. It feels like a wall and a weapon at the same time.“Aria.” My voice comes out rough. I clear my throat. “Aria, can we talk?”Nothing.“I know you don’t want to. I know you hate me right now.” Pause. “I just need five minutes. Please.”Still nothing. But I hear it. The shift of weight. She’s on the other side. She’s listening.“Look,” I say. “What happened this morning... it’s not what you think.” God, that sounds stupid. What else could it be?“I’m trying to keep you safe,” I say. The words rush out. “Victoria’s dad threatened you. At the tower. He said if I didn
