MARCO’S POV

I slammed the brakes and jumped out of the car, the gravel crunched under my boots as the early morning dew made the heat I was feeling inside cool down a little. Cal’s truck was stopped in the middle of the road, his headlights cutting through the darkness. He was sitting stiff behind the wheel, both hands gripping it tight.

I jogged up to the window. “Cal! What the hell happened?”

He didn’t look at me right away. His face was pale, eyes staring straight ahead. Then he swallowed hard, his voice came out coarse. “I got a text.”

My eyes fixed on him, he looked like he had seen a ghost or something really scary, whatever text he had gotten was far from good. “From who?”

“One of my men,” he said slowly, still staring at nothing. “He saud Justina is dead.. my wife’s dead Marco.” his eyes found mine, the tears in them made it look glassy, they shook slightly showing how much he was fighting them. Who said men shouldn't cry?

For a second, I just stood there, not sure I heard hi

  • Love in lies   Intense Dislike

    JUDI’S POVThe smell of polished marble and fresh lilies filled the living room. It was too quiet for my liking. After months in the hospital, silence made me uneasy. At least in the ward, there was always someone talking, a nurse scolding, or a patient crying. Here, everything was just… perfect as if it was too perfect.I leaned back on the couch, staring at the sunlight pouring through the tall windows. My hand trembled slightly as I reached for the glass of water on the table. The doctors said the tremors would go away with time, but I hated how weak I looked.The door opened behind me. “You shouldn’t sit that way,” a deep voice said.I turned my head sharply, it was Jonathan. What was Marco's right hand man doing here? Now he was the last person I expected to see today. The need to say something back was too much to resist. “I didn’t ask for your opinion,” I snapped, straightening up anyway.He closed the door behind him, calm as ever, his expression unreadable. He was wearing

  • Love in lies   I don't think I'm okay

    JUDI’S POVAfter Emily's visit, there was something that made me feel so much better, maybe it was because she had forgiven me or because despite everything, she still cared deeply. The hospital didn’t feel like a cage anymore, I was slowly learning to live here.At first, I hated everything, I didn't want to tell Emily that. I couldn't, I hated the smell of disinfectant, the constant beeping of machines, the white walls that looked too clean, too fake. I hated the way people looked at me too, like I was fragile glass that would break if they spoke too loud.But I guess healing isn’t supposed to be pretty.Every morning, I woke up before dawn. The nurses would make their rounds, and then the therapist would come in. At first, I barely spoke to her. I lied to Emily when I said it was going okay. The therapist would ask questions, and I’d shrug or give one-word answers. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to talk, I just didn’t know how to explain the mess in my head.Guilt, shame, fear, reg

  • Love in lies   A stalker?

    EMILY’S POVI woke up feeling much lighter than I had in weeks.“Good morning sweet.” Marco murmured against my hair. “I have a meeting to attend to in town,” he placed a kiss on my lips. I groaned, “come on, I haven't brushed yet.” “I don't mind, you still taste so good.” he smirked, causing me to hide my face in my hands. The weather was calm when I finally got up from the bed, the kind that made everything look peaceful even if it wasn’t. I sat in the back of the car, staring out the window as the city rolled by. My thoughts were all over the place, but one thing stayed constant, Judi.It was just yesterday she left, but somehow, I felt the need to go check on her. Since she went back to the hospital for therapy, I hadn't exactly heard anything from her. And j knew she'd need all the support she can get. needed to know she was really okay, she said that she'll be string, but it wasn't that easy. The receptionist directed me to the garden after I told her who I was looking for

  • Love in lies   His thrusts

    I broke the kiss and sat down beside him on the couch. "You won’t believe what happened at the café today—" I began, my words tumbling over each other. But before I could finish my sentence, Marco’s deep voice cut through my chatter, his tone low and husky."Hold on," he said, his eyes locking onto mine with an intensity that made my breath catch. He was lounging on the couch, his long legs stretched out, but as he spoke, he sat up, his gaze darkening with a hunger that sent a shiver down my spine. I paused, my heart skipping a beat as he rose to his feet, closing the distance between us in two swift strides."Marco, what—?" I started, but my question was swallowed by his lips crashing against mine. “Why do you tease me, Wife?” He mumbled against my mouth. I wanted to break the kiss and tell him to explain what he meant. But he pulled me closer to him, taking my open mouth as an invitation in. Marco's kiss was fierce and demanding, my hands instinctively tangled in his hair. His t

  • Love in lies   Feeling Normal again

    EMILY’S POVIt had been three weeks since the night Jax had drugged and kidnapped me.These three weeks had been of silence and healing. I learnt to put what had happened and the trauma attached to everything behind me. It was getting easier to breathe without feeling like someone was watching me.Everything slowly started to fall back into place. The house was repaired, Marco had taken out more than half the usual amount of guards, what he did to them. I had no idea. Those left weren’t standing at every corner anymore, and Marco… well, he was much calmer. The tension that used to follow him around like a dark cloud had started to fade. He still worked late, still had that edge in his voice when he spoke to his men, but when he looked at me, I could see something softer.He didn’t talk much about that night, and neither did I. Sometimes in the middle of the night, I’d feel him reach for me, his hand sliding over my waist just to make sure I was still there. And for me, that was more t

  • Love in lies   Once and for all!

    The whole station smelled like a mixture of sweat and coffee. I was here just a few nights ago, but it didn't feel like this. I didn't have as much rage in me then. My body felt slightly hot as the rage boiled under my skin.Lucas sat across from me, his hands were cuffed to the table. His face was pale, bruised from his earlier arrest, but his mouth was still as smug as ever. I wanted to wipe that look off him with my fist, but I held myself back. If I did that, I won't achieve what I wanted this afternoon. “You’re telling me,” I said, leaning forward, “you had nothing to do with the explosion outside the church today?”Lucas lifted his eyes lazily. “I told you already, Marco. I’ve been locked up since you brought me in. How the hell could I blow up your car from a jail cell? And moreover, you know I'd never endanger Emily knowingly.”His voice was calm, “hmmmm, but you've done that several times.” “No, that wasn't me… it was you that endangered her! I didn't do anything and I most
