LOGINAria's POV."Mum." I sighed as I rested my head on my hands."What?" She frowned and I stroked my forehead."I am not a kid and you two need to stop treating me like one, please." I said and my mum's jaw dropped."What?""Yes. I am 18 years old, I am a legal adult and can make whatever decision that I feel is right for me at the moment." I told her and she looked stunned."But, Aria." she began and I tried not to roll my eyes."We are your parents for a reason. Whether you are now legal or not, we are supposed to be there to guide and lead you so you don't make mistakes." She finished."Mum, please. You guys made the best decision for me then, by marrying me to the Moretti's and now, you want to remove me from it so are you now saying that I shouldn't have trusted your judgement in the first place?" I asked and she went mute as I noticed the look of guilt flashing across her eyes."Please answer me, mum. Because if I couldn't trust the sense of judgement then, why should I now?" I que
Aria's POV.My mouth hung open as I watched Don Luciano walk away from me without looking back.Did he just say he was willing to let me go?That he wasn't going to disturb or bother me anymore?I should feel relieved but deep down, I had this deep, unsettling feeling, the urge to run after me and drag him back here but nope.'If he wanted to leave, he was free to. Good riddance.' I thought as I scoffed and turned back to enter my bedroom."Oh! You are back!" Lucien exclaimed with a smile as I walked towards the bed."Yes. Miss me?" I teased and he chuckled."Yes. Did you miss me too?" he threw back the question and I winked at him as I proceeded to straddle him."Always, baby." I replied and then leaned in to seal our lips together. He reciprocated the kiss hungrily as he turned to lay me on the bed.My hands ran all over his body, down to his hot, toned, chest as our tongues played with one another."Hmmm." I moaned as he sucked on my bottom lips."You are so delicious." he whispere
Luciano's POV.I love Aria so much and I did not think that I could bear to live without her. She was my joy and peace, so the thought of letting my son have her was causing my heart to tighten against my chest."Before I ask your questions, tell me something." I told Aria as I watched her frown at me with dissatisfaction but I didn't care, I needed to know."Go ahead.""Thank you, Bambina mia. Now, why are you interested in forgiving and starting afresh with Lucien after everything he had done to hurt you?" I questioned and she went mute, her eyes roaming everywhere except for my face.I narrowed my eyes, lost and unsure about what to feel because did my question but a nerve or she didn't just want to answer?"I am waiting, Aria." For the first time in a while I called her by her name and she seemed to notice for she flinched."Because he is my husband and I love him." she said.Her words were like a huge blow to my heart as I went still, trying to sink her words in."But I thought w
Aria's POV."I am not going to be your wife, Don Luciano." I told him firmly and he frowned."How many times would I tell you to just call me Luciano, without the Don?" I furrowed my brows at him. "Oh! how about I call you something better?" I asked as a mischievous idea came to my mind."Dear Father-in-law, don't you think it's rather too early in the morning to be bothering me?" I swear that I could literally see flames emitting from his ears as he clenched his fists."Do you mind repeating yourself, daughter-in-law?" he questioned as he even moved closer to me, till he had me trapped against the door.I gasped, stunned, unable to breathe due to how close he was to me."I can't hear you, girl. Cat got your tongue?" he mocked and I felt the urge to slap him across the face but my hands were too weak to move."Can you please g-get a-away f-from m-me?" I stuttered, gulping down the saliva that gathered in my mouth.Luciano smirked as he watched me struggle with my words."Like I said
Aria's POV.I watched as his eyes flashed with a look of hurt and almost felt bad."You don't mean that." he whispered and I smirked."Don't you have a wife to get to? Stop bothering me, Don Luciano." I told him and he groaned, looking frustrated."How many times would I tell you to please let me explain about the wife's issue? That lady in the house means nothing to me." he said and I flinched, feeling rage burn through my veins."How dare you speak about my fellow gender like that? Is that what you said behind my back too, then, to convince her to marry you?" I asked and he gave me a look of confusion."What do you mean?" he questioned and I chuckled."Don't play dumb, father-in-law. Did you lie to her that I was nobody as well? Probably like one of the little mistresses you keep around for your pleasure?"Don Luciano frowned at my words. "Aria, are you trying to disrespect me?" he questioned and I shrugged."And what would I gain by doing so? I am merely starting the truth." I tol

Aria's POV.He tasted like mint, delicious and sweet as we kissed deeply. I wrapped my hands around his neck, my hands trailing into his hair.He trailed the kisses down to my neck, his hands moving to my boobs. I moaned, throwing my head backwards as his fingers teased my nipples through my shirt.
Aria's POV.Hearing the words the old-aged lady just spoke almost made me trip down the stairs as my lips parted from shock.They wanted Don Luciano to get married? At this age?Normally, in this Mafia world, it was nothing surprising, but the thought of witnessing him in the arms of another didn't
Luciano's POV.As I stared at her plump pink lips, I felt the strong urge to kiss her but held myself back. She was currently pissed and hurt, it was so obvious with her expression.I apologized, even though I never do, but because she deserved it, I had to. Surely if I had the chance to go back to
Aria's POV.Thank God school was over so I could leave the premises easily. I went back to the library to grab my stuff and saw Kelly waiting for me patiently.She frowned upon seeing us."Aria, why is there a blood stain on your uniform?" She asked. "Are you hurt somewhere?"I froze, remembering t
