Okay, about the last chapter: I was in a hurry and made a mistake. I corrected it right away but the revisions on Goodnovel take a day or two to register. Happy Reading!
Third Person POV
Ivana dropped her fist and laid on her back beside Svetlana.In a trashed bar with broken tables, shattered glass, and injured limbs they were as peaceful as they were in their crib.That is the kind of relationship they had, a toxic friendship.They had both done considerable harm to the other. Nothing fatal but if they were against any common rank lot, they would've done lasting damages.They stayed down, heaving heavy breaths to calm their raging minds and racing hearts for a while in pregnant silence with the only sound reaching their ears was either their heavy breath or erratic hearts."He isn't worth it."Ivana scoffed that ended in a coughing fit, "You don't sound convinced enough."Svetlana pursed her lips and exhaled, thinking it through. Sh
Third Person POVOn a secluded area in the middle of nowhere with nothing but uncivilization around the premesis Svetlana stopped the car.Wiping her face and body with wet wipes, of all the dirt and vile liquids, she winced at the pain that erupted by touching her bruises. She could tell there wasn't any fatal internal injury but her ribs were surely bruised."That b*tch!" Svetlana cursed with every hiss and moan in pain.There wasn't much she could do in this state of her. Her hairs were sweaty and sticky and smelled of champagne and vodka.She ripped open the carton and took out a change of a Tee shirt, denim jeans and a scarlet jacket.She was in no condition to exhibit her body in a seducing-short dress. There were bluish bruises on many parts of her body. She looked like a woman who has objected victim to domestic violence.Svetlana inspected her swollen cheek and busted lip and closed her eyes in irritation. She cur
Third Person POVHis eyes ablazed and lips pursed, his hand stilled once combing his hair but he didn't turn to her but walked to the door with steady steps.Svetlana panicked and ran to him and held his arm but he jerked his arm out of her hold, like she was infected with a plaque.A pang emerged in her heart which was replaced with rage in a matter of seconds. He was still galring at her, like she had betrayed him.Svetlana return a twin glare and shouted, "I was depressed and lonely, Okay! I am locked here the whole day with no one to talk to: the whole wedding and fake pregnancy were freaking me out so...""So you drove to a noman land after deceiving my radar and drowned in booze out of your skull?" Luca cut her off in a lethally calm voice."Yes! I mean NO! You are just putting it too harshly. You have me practically locked in here, like in a curfew! I feel suffocated, I am not a six-year-old even a six year old isn't imprisoned in the
Third Person POVHe had been living in the bachelor's pad of Daniel, Dean, Zion, Tylor, and Vincenzo, his assistant. Though Andres didn't live here anymore.They lived together to give company to each other as they were all single and had constant hook-ups, apparently regular lives were a chore for them.Their personalities were a stark contrast to each other but that didn't rust their brotherhood, even over time.Andres, Dean were brothers and Daniel was their half-brothers. They were heirs to Calderon fortune, the other powerhouse in the continent.Andres had a devil-may-care attitude while Dean was a happy-go-lucky kind, and Daniel was a loose cannon. You have to struggle to make him angry but once he is, you wouldn't want to be on the wrath-receiving end.Tylor and Vincenzo were both organised one-shot-kill type. But whereas one was an easygoing flirt, the other was deadbeat.But their attractive features got them constant lays.Their plac
Third Person POVLuca rested his head backwards on the couch and closed his eyes to relax a little. For now, he had extinguished the lava.The front door opened and closed, Luca took no notice of it. It was past evening and the boys were returning from their 'jobs'.Andres would join them too but, he was probably doing his captive-cum-mistress, like she was some chores. That's what he had collected from Vincenzo intel.The living room is where they spent their Fridays resting, and recounting their week and on weekends they went on 'booty-hunts'.No commitments, no arguments, no drunken fiance, no family drama: single life was f*cking heaven."Sh*tty days?" Zion plopped on the couch Luca was sitting on, with a beer bottle and half-eaten lasagna in hand. He had spoken with mouth-full just like he did when he was a teenager.Luca ruffled his hair and chuckled lightly and murmured tiredly under his breath, "You have no idea."
Third Person POVDays passed by Svetlana spending her time, slumping, dining and shopping with Ashley and Juana.She knew Luca had a hand in it but she didn't bother him, just like he didn't bother her. He hadn't come home since that fight and it was better this way, for both of them. It helped her strengthen her resolve.Shopping was treated as a competition. If Juana bought a blue crib in six-digits, Ashley bought a pink crib in seven-digits.The irony was that they even decided the wedding rings on their own too.They would occasionally break out in a quarrel about the things that could only be one. Like the banquet, wedding cake, venue decor theme, etc.That was the tightest spot for her when they turned to her for supporting one of them. Their glares came with promised dread, both the women were terrifying when provoked.And siding with one would humiliate the other and bring her wrath upon her. Svetlana being smart w
Third Person POVShe eyed her with her orbs ablaze with rage, "To water the seed of discord, so my betrayal will bring harvest your Garden so construct your Mansion on my Mausoleum? Once he despises me, you want him to love you because you are going to be there for him, how cunning"She was certainly being ridiculous. Luca wasn't her property. Once she was gone, he could be with any woman he liked it wasn't her call to make but since when you can reason with your hearts.To her heart, she had a territorial claim on him.Besides she wouldn't be a stepping stone for a rival. If she can't have him. She would want him to be no ones. Call it her selfishness if you will but her heart wrenched at the thought.She took a step back in disbelief. Her eyes were shimmering with unshed pearls, "You aren't even satisfied by me being out of his life, you even want his memories of me to be contaminated! How can you even do this to me?"Ivana took a st
Third Person POVShe relished being in his arms but she knew she had to face the consequence of her actions.Ivana ran through her mind, she scrunched her eyes to get rid of the thought.Taking a hesitant breath, she faced her sanctuary and demise. Their eyes met like planets clashed. She felt the atrocity in her chest.He was still ridiculously handsome, enchanted shock waves ran through their contacts. He looked just like he left but hard cigar traces in his cologne spoke volumes.They stood with parted lips and longing yet consuming eyes waiting for the other to utter a word. Their silence fed the metaphorical distance between them.There was a lot unsaid yet nothing to say between them. He thought a hundred things he would say to her when he saw her but they both held bigger points of pride than hearts.She took a breath in his cologne of what she had missed and what she will miss. She detached herself from him and he let her. She
Third Person POV"Strange."Dean nodded, "Indeed strange. Why would a girl even allow that?"Vincenzo looked up and met his eyes, "It's not that, she is a weirdo through and through..."Before he could finish his sentence Daniel smirked and spoke, "We are sitting here celebrating your mini-bachelor party without even knowing who your bride is. Why don't you video call her so we can see our 'sister in-law' without actually meeting her?"Everyone hummed or nodded in agreement except Vincenzo, who would rather smoke weed then look at that snobbish woman, any more than necessary.But it was really strange already not having seen your first-cousin fiance for at least 8 years.Luca fished his phone out of his pocket to show-off his porcelain-crafted angel for the first time to his brothers.There was no harm in that. In a week she was going to be family and they would see her anyway.He hovered over her number than thoug
