Adriana ( Julian and Amrita 's Daughter) POV.I'm being sold off...that's the news that my father wants me to know after I just came back from boarding school."You sold me." I said sitting in a chair in the middle of his office. Mom was next to me but she didn't say a word. As if there was anything that could make this better.Not that she could anyway. I was going to be just like her. The perfect little mafia wife. It made me sick just thinking about it."I didn't sell you Adriana! This was going to happen. You have to get married for both of us to work together." My dad tried to reason with me but it wasn't working very well at the moment. Honestly this was all just a bunch of bull. Made me miss sitting in my math class...come to think of it could I go back to that? I may have hated that but hell anything was better then being told your being sold off."I can't be here right now." I got up and rushed out of his office. I felt like the walls around me were crashing in on me and that
I finished putting my raven hair back a little out of my face. My heels already hurt me to wear. Nothing drinking can't help with.I made my way out of my room to find Sam having trouble with his tie as he sat at the top of the stairs."Want some help buddy?"I asked and he nodded his head as he looked up at me.I got down next to him and started fixing the tie that I learned how to when I was little. Dad had thought me how to do it and told me it would help one day to know how to do it."There now your good handsome." I said and smiled helping him to his feet."Are you going to leave us again?" Sam asked.Sam was only 1 when I first left for boarding school. I would come home every now and then for holidays and birthdays when I could. He never really got to grow up with me and yet here he was asking if I was leaving."I'm never leaving you." I said and tapped his nose making him laugh as he wrapped his arms around me.I picked him up carrying him down with me."You look beautiful" my mom said
"Shit." I said under my breath more to myself but he heard and he wasn't happy.He proceeded to get closer while I looked for an escape. I grabbed my moms empty glass and went to walk off but he cadged me in like a lost animal by putting both his arms now either side of me."Pretty plump lips like these shouldn't have words like them leaving." he uttered.I was stunned. I mean what the hell was I supposed to do."P-please step back." I requested.He smirked looking down at my body for a second before looking back up to my face."And this is all going to be mine." He said like I was something to be bought. It made me sick and wanted to smack his beautiful face all at the same time.He leaned closer to me and pushed me more into the bar as he reached over me to grab the bottle of whiskey that was behind the bar. How the hell did he know I was going for that! There were so many other bottles back there and he grabbed that one.He placed it on the bar and moved till his lips were right at my ear
Later the next morning I woke up. It was more like the afternoon.Once I got up though my phone was going off like crazy. I picked it up to see I had many missed calls from Eric and Ashley and another unknown number.I clicked Ashley's number first and she picked up on the first ring."Where the hell have you been Bitch! Me and Eric have been trying to get ahold of you for the past 5 hours!" Had I really been asleep for that long? she said."Sorry what's up." I asked."We are going clubbing tonight."she said. I rolled my eyes knowing I had no way out of this. I gave an excuse last time and she made me promise that I would come next time."Are you kidding me...that's why you've called me over 100 times..." I said."...yes now be ready at 8 we want to pregame a little at your house." she said.I looked down at my phone to see it was 1 and that I had some time to get ready."Ok sounds good to me." I said."Goodie!" And she hung up as I laid back in my bed.My phone dinged and I picked it up to see
Later that night we were all at the 2nd club of the night. How the hell we got there I will never know. All I know was me and Eric we're together dancing. He had his arms around my waist and mine around his neck.I felt his lips on my neck and I leaned my head back letting him in. I don't know what came over me but I was suddenly ok with this."God Adriana." He sighed Into my neck pulling me closer as we danced."I-I-" before I could even get words out of my mouth Eric was being pulled from me.I watched as he was punched and thrown to the floor fast."ERIC!" I went to go for him but my body was grabbed. I turned fast to see the guy that had punched him was none other then the asshole himself.IT'S COLTON."LET ME GO!" I yelled.Everyone had started to watch at us like we were crazy. Colton holding me back totally ."SISTER!" I turned to see Amlian running to me and before I knew what was happening Colton pulled a gun out putting it to him.If I had to think of the worst thing to happen in my
We went till he clicked his keys and a very nice looking car went off.Colton put me in the passengers seat and even helped put my seat belt on before going around to get in himself.The car started with a roar and we were off going through the night.As soon as the car came to a stop outside my house I went to open the door but he grabbed me holding me back."Tomorrow night act like you love me." he said.I didn't want to look to him but he forced me to by pulling my chin."Don't disrespect me and don't make a fool out of me or there will be consequences. So help me Adriana if you go to another man tomorrow night that isn't your blood I'll personally snap their necks. Am I clear?"he hissed. I tried to pull my arm away from him because I didn't like the way he was being with me."Yes!" I hissed and he dropped my arm and I ran. I ran so far from him as fast as possible.Once I got through the doors Amlian was rushing to me."That son of a bitch didn't hurt you did he?" he asked."No he didn't.
Once we pulled up to Coltons mansions I was flabbergasted. It looked more like a castle to me then a mansion.Sam held onto my hand as we made our way up the big steps to the front doors."I'll take care of him. Mother and father want you to go and find Colton so that you two can really seal the deal on being a couple." Amlian rolled his eyes as he helped me out of my coat."Alright I'll see you guys later." I walked off in front of them and grabbed a glass off a tray as a person walked by. It was champagne. Not my favorite but still I'd take anything right now.As I made my way to the ballroom I realized how many people I knew here. Many of these people was dad's friends with ordad had deals with them. A few friends of my mother would wave at me as I past and I offered them a kind smile.As I walked through the double doors into the ball room all eyes went to me. Not scary at all...I grabbed the railing with my other hand and slowly made my way down the stairs. My eyes went to Colton who
Colton took me up to his room with him and gave me a shirt to put on to sleep in. I used his bathroom to get changed.Once I had slipped out of the dress I put the long shirt on. It went to mid thigh on me because I was so small.I found makeup wipes in the draw which made me laugh a little. How many other women had been in this shirt...As I dried my face off I looked at myself. My whole face was red and puffy from tears. It was a scary sight but something told me I would see this a lot more now.I looked down at the ring and almost couldn't believe that it was true. Just a few weeks ago I was dreaming about the perfect summer. Now here I am with a ring on my finger.Walking out into the bedroom I saw Colton talking on the phone outside on the balcony. I didn't pay attention to him I just went to the bed. I grabbed a blanket and a pillow and put them on the couch for myself. I got under the blanket and rested my head on the pillow before closing my eyes.Colton talked on for a few more min
