|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" Are you sure that you want to do this, Luca?", David whispered, seeing through the pain that I had been trying to hold back.I lit up the fourth cigarette that I finished in the last few minutes. When my mind wasn't working straight, I could only smoke to burn my thoughts like this cigarette." Yes!", I replied in a whisper, looking outside to see the clouds as we were airing high in the air to fly back to Italy. David looked away too, released a sigh as he told me," Think about it still...You are going to lose Miss Kiera for forever. Judging by her character, she will never be the same with you if you become a married man."I replied, swallowing hard," I know...but do I have a choice?"David fell silent but I understood that he didn't want us to break apart. But I had always started to believe that life didn't work for us. You have to lose something at a point. Right now, leaving her for forever was the best thing that I could do to her.The mansion was
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" What.. what happened to me?", I asked weakly, looking up to find Molly's crying face. I was in the hospital. My dress had been changed into a white gown. But my stomach hurt more than everything.Molly broke into tears as she fixed my hair, gently brushing them off to one side," Nothing..You just fell off...I was worried about you...Ryan is also outside..Your father too.."I gave her a bewildering look. It was just a fall yet so many people had already gathered here. Molly suddenly switched the topic, asking me gently," Kiera..do you want to have anything? Juice?"I nodded my head, feeling my throat turning dry," Yes, please..."My eyes fell on the clock which was tickling sharp at 8 P.M. It was almost the time when Luca was going to get married to Cassendra. His subordinate told me that they had decided to hold it at night. I forced my thoughts to pull away from the painful burn but something didn't feel right as soon as my eyes went outside, spotting m
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" Do you take Cassendra Mitchell as your lawfully wedded wife?", the priest awkwardly repeated, glancing between us. All the eyes were fixed on me as they waited for my response. Even Cassendra looked panicked, silently pleading.I stepped backwards, replied to the crowd sternly," I do not and will never...."The crowd all gasped in horror, standing up. My grandpa shouted from his chair," What the heck? Azrael!!! What are you saying?"Mr.Ronald Mitchell stormed forward to threaten me, his eyes turning red in anger," Luca! This isn't a joke. My daughter is standing to get married to you. How can you do this to her?"I smirked at them and finally pulled my eyes back at David who was bringing all the documents. I figured out that he was the only man whom I could trust blindly.The crowd was in uproar, gossiping loudly. I took the bag from David, opened it up to pull out the voice recorder. I turned around to show it to Cassendra before telling," Remember th

As if he knew I was dreaming, he began to walk towards me with large strides. The noisy reporters all backed away, opening a path for him.My mind went black with his presence. He wasn't supposed to be here for not at least a day. His expression was sullen as if he would crash the world down in a minute. Our eyes locked and I knew at that moment that he was here for real. My eyes traveled down to find him in his groom's suit. The flip in my heart turned unbearable, knowing that he was probably here after getting married.However, the last shocking part was yet to come. He came beside me to wrap an arm around my waist casually. Skimming his cold gaze on the reporters, he gave his statement, causing another uproar," Kiera is innocent. The child in her was mine. No one abandoned her or she is someone's mist
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||A week Later......." Mr.Luca, you wanted to see me?", it was the girl named Daria again, a smart one. I could tell how evil minded she was just by judging her appearance. She accepted the invite as soon as David called her to meet me.A week had passed yet I couldn't find any clue of Kiera's accident. There was no CCTV footage. Plus, no eye witness had seen Daria doing anything. However, I didn't give up investigating. If nothing didn't work out, one would surely work 'Bullet'." Take a seat, Miss Daria! Make yourself comfortable!", I mumbled, putting the burning cigarette between my lips. She started before I could ask her, playing the smart mouth game," If you called me here to ask about Kiera's accident, I know nothing. I have shots later on. So, I want you to finish it as early as possible."So daring! Huh! I just knew how to put this girl in place!" Relax, Miss Daria! What are you so afraid of? You didn't do anything wrong, right?" I asked with a pl
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||My eyes went dark at her words. Fuck..I was already restraining myself to not take her these days because her body was too weak. Now, the doctor had confirmed that she was fully recovered but she was mentally sick. I had all the urge to fuck her hard until she forgot about everything.She looked a little cowardly after being threatened with my icy stare. Biting her lips together, she muttered, asking me slowly," Why didn't you get married to Cassendra? You have to tell me first or else..I am not letting you come to me." My lips curled up into a smile. Finally, she was playing again just like our better days. I stripped off my trousers, muttered as I pointed at the water filled tub," First! Let me get in...You have tortured me enough already, Senorita!"I let myself fully naked, then walked into the tub. The water splashed from my movement. Thankfully, the tub was big enough to occupy us both. Stretching my arms out, I pushed her on my lap. She sat on my l
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" What do you want from me?", I asked coldly, stepping out of the room to find Jasper, standing a few feet away. He looked more vulnerable than other times. His face had a growing beard. He looked like aged overnight.I didn't wish to meet him. After what he had done to Anastasia, I felt disgusted with him. For the sake of our past relationship, I decided to let him talk to me for once. He seemed happy too after I appeared in front of him.I stayed in a remarkable distance, and wanted to call it off as early as possible. Jasper muttered, watching me closely," You are really here. I didn't expect you to come."I ignored his fake concern and repeated my question again," What do you want Jasper? Anastasia doesn't work here anymore. I really don't have time to gossip with you here."He stayed silent for a second but the next moment, he surprised me with his question," Are you really dating Mr. Luca?"Fuck..Did he come here all the way to ask me this?I didn't
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" Seriously, water guns? You two want to play with a water gun beside the beach?", I scolded them with my eyes, and saw my son's lips pulling into a big smile. I managed to convince his father on this vacation after sucking his dick last night. He said that vacation was boring but I was stubborn for a new start. I knew that happiness wasn't supposed to stay the same forever but at least, I wanted to cherish it as long as it was with me. I wished moments like this just the three of us but this father and son were always occupied in shootings. Just like his father, Ryan also thought that the beach was boring.Ryan spoke happily as he shot the waters on his father," Mommy, you should enjoy the beach instead of scolding us. It's fun to us!"I scoffed, settling myself on the sand," Do as you wish! Don't come to me!"The cool breeze hit my skin, taking my worries away. I always had a weakness for ocean. It looked like peace whenever I watched the shores. My ears
