I'm still feeling the pain, but I can't show him, not now and not ever because I know that he will kill my baby.
I can't help but cry, I would rather not be with this baby and I would rather not live this life.
All my life I want to be loved by someone who loves me unconditionally, and here I am now, being forced into a marriage against my will.
I know it's wrong, it's stupid, and it's wrong, but I wish I could run away from all of this.
I just want to cry and scream in happiness, but I can't, I can't do it and this is just too much to handle. The worst part is that I can't stop crying.
After some minutes, Riccardo stop hugging me and after a few seconds, he left me alone.
It's quiet around me, no one is talking or anything, I think they wanted to avoid talking to me, I'm confused because I don't understand why they were avoiding me.
Then I feel something warm on my back, and it's like it was raining, and suddenly, it stops.
But suddenly, he goes back and takes the most beautiful and expensive wedding gown I have ever seen.
Not only that, but he also takes some jewelry and other stuff, that looks so fancy and expensive.
“This all for you Alessia, just take it, tomorrow we will get married, so right now just prepare yourself because I will take my private jet for us going to marry and honeymoon to Greece.”
“What? Isn't it too fast for you?”
“No, this is the best decision I ever made because I will marry you, the first virgin I meet, you are so beautiful and precious to me.”
I just nodded my head, I feel so shy and my heartbeat goes faster every time I'm around Riccardo.
As soon I prepare before going to Greece, the time seems so much faster for me, I don't even realize anything that happened.
I just know, I will marry the most dangerous mafia in Italy, and I'm pregnant with his baby.
Riccardo has been waiting for me on his private jet and as soon I arrive he helps me and keep holding me.
I look around the plane, this place is so huge, there are so many people and I didn't see anyone that I know, and I'm so scared because I want to avoid causing any problems in his business or the Mafia.
The plane landed in Athens in 4 hours and we both go to our hotel room.
I start to walk to the bed and Riccardo follows behind me.
“Oh Alessia, this will be your bedroom, so you can choose what you want in here.”
I nod my head and I open my suitcase, it has plenty of dresses, blouses, pants, shoes, and accessories.
I choose all of them and I look at the big mirror in the corner of my room.
“Alessia…come out for a second.”
I turn towards him and see he has a smile on his face, he was looking at me like an adorable child.
“Alessia, come over here!”
I immediately come next to him and stand near him and see he is taking pictures of me.
I don't know what he wants, but I don't care, I just hope he doesn't take a picture of my stomach.
And suddenly, he takes pictures of my stomach, to show his family if I'm pregnant with his baby.
We both get close, and he holds my shoulders and takes the photo, and it shows that there's only my stomach that is shown.
“Good! Now kiss me.”
Now I feel scared, and my stomach starts to get nervous because I don't want him to take any pictures of my tummy.
I slowly move forward, and I'm standing near his lips.
Suddenly, I feel his mouth touching mine, he kissed me, and he kisses me hard.
When he pulls away, he puts his hand on his forehead and I follow his movement.
“You will be my wife now, I can't say it anymore because it sounds too weird to say, for a man like me, you are entirely changing my life.”
I just stay silent without saying anything, all I wanted was to run away from here.
“Well, now that I have married you I want you to obey everything that I order you to do. You're going to be the mother of my son, so you need to listen to everything I tell you. And I hope you will respect me and obey me in everything. If you do what I say, you can expect good things from your future, and I promise you that.”
Now I can't say anything to him, but he didn't let me answer him.
“And now, I know you must be tired, you can go to sleep because tomorrow we will be busy.”
I sleep, and he took the blanket to cover my body.
Tomorrow morning, I see some noise from the outside.
And I see the servant already waiting for me until I wake up.
Today is the day of our wedding, I woke up early as usual to prepare everything, my dress is being made by my maids.
I look at my belly and smile, I don't know when I started feeling so happy, I think when I first realized that I was pregnant. I also don't know if I should be excited or nervous or sad.
Furthermore, I guess I'm nervous because I haven't decided yet whether I should marry Riccardo or not. Not only that, but I think he would be so mad if I suddenly decide not to marry him after getting married.
Furthermore, I know how much he loves me, and I can tell he truly cares about me if I decided not to marry him he would become angry and disappointed. I don't want that because he might be killing me.
"Here it is." She said giving him the jacket.Riccardo puts it on and turns around to face her."Thanks."She smiled sweetly at him."Where do you want me to carry you?" She asked."You can carry me over your shoulder." Riccardo said.Alessia roll her eyes."You know, I'M NOT THAT BABY. YOU CAN DO IT WITH YOUR OWN TWO HANDS AND DON'T ASK ME TO PUT MY BACK ON YOU OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT."Riccardo looks surprised at how fast she reacted after what he said."Alright, whatever you say." He chuckled.And so Alessia carried him over her shoulders.As they were going towards the elevator Riccardo spoke."So, are you going back to work tomorrow?" He asks."I think so. My boss told me that she wanted me to come back to work as early as possible." She answered."That means I'll be able to spend more time with you, won't it?" He asked."Yeah, probably, but don't expect me to kiss you every time that you come home." Alessia joked.Riccardo laughs at her comment."Ok." He says "Well, I guess we sh
The next morning, Alessia woke up early. After getting ready quickly she went downstairs to see Riccardo waiting for her."Morning, baby girl," he greets her and give her a peck on the cheek."Morning, Riccardo." She replied as she sits on the table."Let's have breakfast together, I made you breakfast earlier." He said.She gave him a small smile."Thank you."After eating their breakfast, they decided to walk through the city. They walked hand in hand. It felt natural for them. When they reach near the park, they decided to sit on one of the benches."Have you been planning this for long?" Asked Alessia."Yeah, since last month. Why?""Nothing."Alessia leans her head against his shoulder. As they continue walking, Alessia couldn't hold it anymore."Do you really want to adopt my babies?" She asks."Of course I do." He answers without any hesitation."But I mean, why did you choose us?" Riccardo sigh."Honestly, I don't know. It's all I dream about for years." He paused. "When I wa
"That's a very valid question. And I don't blame you at all for missing me, Alessia. But don't feel guilty, okay? I would never be mad at you or upset if you ever thought about coming back to me. In fact, if you do decide to return, we'll talk more about this situation, alright?" She requested with a small smile.As soon as I heard the words we will talk being said aloud, I felt slightly relieved. However, it only lasted for a short amount of time because I immediately thought about what Ezra had said to me the night before. He had asked me to wait until tomorrow to give myself a chance to talk about the things that troubled me, so now, I was starting to wonder whether my decision to wait was a good idea. I decided I needed to ask her about it."Actually, I need to ask you something...about yesterday afternoon," I said nervously."What is it?" she asked curiously."I don't know how to word it exactly...but I have these weird feelings...and I'm beginning to think that maybe I should r
"This was a really fun game, Alessia. I think I'm going to enjoy playing it more often," she mentioned, smiling genuinely."Me too. And I'm glad you enjoyed yourself today. I missed you playing poker," I admitted."And I missed you too, Alessia. Thank you for everything you did. We wouldn't have survived without you," she said sincerely.Just then, someone knocked on the door and announced Ezra's arrival. A moment later, he entered the room with an excited smile plastered across his face."Sorry I'm late. I got caught up on a case and had to do overtime," he apologized."It's alright. You were lucky that it was only one extra hour," she commented.I gave Ezra a quick hug, while everyone else congratulated him on finally arriving back."Wow, you smell great!" I commented, noticing how fresh his hair smelled."Thanks. That means a lot to me," he said happily.We all then headed out of the house, saying our farewells. As we reached their car, I noticed the car seats had been removed and
We both got up and made our way down the hallway to the kitchen. There, I saw our family eating together. They all looked quite happy and excited. My heart filled with happiness upon seeing everyone looking so content. It was truly a perfect family.As soon as I arrived downstairs, I spotted them sitting together at one of the stools at the kitchen counter. I walked over to them and took a seat beside her."Hey," I greeted."Hey," Ezra responded."I'm sorry for waking you," I apologies."Oh, it's not a problem. I didn't mind getting up early anyway," She stated cheerfully, waving her hand dismissively.I chuckled softly to myself and turned my attention towards my mum who was busy cooking breakfast."Mum, please don't cook too much. I might not be able to handle it after all," I pleaded.She chuckled."There's plenty more where that came from," she reassured me."Thank God," I whispered in relief.Alessia suddenly jumped up from her seat and ran out of the room, running past me and a
Without saying another word, I followed him into the bedroom, closing the door behind me as I did so. I laid down on the bed and he crawled onto the mattress and pressed a kiss against my forehead. I immediately melted into his embrace. My eyelids started to droop tiredly. Dan chuckled and kissed my temple."Go to sleep, Alessia," he ordered softly.I hummed contently and closed my eyes, relaxing into his touch. Soon enough, my breathing slowed and deepened until it eventually stopped altogether. Ezra smiled to himself as he looked down at me, admiring my peaceful expression. I was sleeping soundly in his arms. The events of yesterday were finally catching up with me and I could barely keep myself from falling asleep. The exhaustion was setting in and I could barely keep my eyes open. I sighed softly as Ezra rubbed circles against my hip soothingly.He leaned forward and rested his chin atop my head, gently brushing away the strands of my loose hair and placing a gentle kiss on th
"Okay, love, I get it. Let's not talk too much and just get ready for breakfast. Then we should probably hurry up and eat before everyone arrives," he said playfully.I nodded and smiled.I felt so loved by Ezra. He gave me more joy than anything else in this world. Even though I'd never admit it out loud, he was definitely the most important person to me in this world. Every time I thought about losing him, my heart broke and I felt so empty. All I wanted to do was hug him tightly and tell him how much I loved him. I had never had anyone give me unconditional love Ever.I had never experienced that type of warmth. I was used to people only caring about the fame I brought them. It scared me to think that someone would ever care about me. And that they would love me unconditionally.I shook my head to clear my thoughts and glanced up at Ezra nervously. There was no way I would be able to hide the emotion in my eyes if I dared to speak. The words seemed stuck somewhere in my throat."
"Marry me," he muttered between heavy breaths."Huh? Why?" I questioned, staring up at him in confusion."Because...because I want you to marry me," he repeated.I gasped quietly in shock, unable to speak a word. Dan's dark eyes were filled with determination as he stared at me intently.ToYah, yah, yes! Of course, I'll marry you!" I blurted out hurriedly.I immediately slapped a hand over my mouth. My voice had come out so loud and I could tell that Ezra had definitely heard me. I bit my lip anxiously and glanced over at him nervously. But surprisingly, he didn't react at all he merely chuckled softly and kissed me tenderly on the lips."Good girl," he murmured softly. "Now come here," he added.I reluctantly crawled towards him. Once I was close enough, he pulled me into a tight embrace and hugged me tightly."Are you okay?" he asked worriedly."Yeah, I'm alright," I assured him.I couldn't believe I had just proposed to Ezra. Sure, I'd always known that it would eventually happen,
"I love you so much," he whispered in my ear before pressing his lips against mine.I felt my cheeks flush brightly again and I closed my eyes in anticipation. As soon as our lips connected, I felt my senses begin to dull and my body relax. All of my worries and problems melted away, leaving nothing but bliss behind them. Nothing mattered except for Ezra."I love you too," I replied softly.After a moment, I pulled away, breaking apart our kiss. I took a deep breath and exhaled loudly."So...are we going back to watching TV now?" I asked hopefully.He chuckled softly."We can continue watching whatever you want," he replied. "However, are you sure that you're alright?" he questioned.A part of me wanted to lie and say everything was fine, but I knew that I couldn't do it. I couldn't hide the truth from Ezra. Besides, he probably already suspected something, judging by the look in his eyes. So, I decided to answer honestly instead."Honestly? No. Not really. I' m just tired," I admit
