A week had passed, and the first set of snow had finally started to fall in New-York, just in time for Christmas. It was just after six in the evening and Aria had just finished getting ready for the annual Christmas party which Adrianâs parents were hosting at their mansion, just like they did every year. Adrian and her hadnât had sex for more than a week and it was the longest they had been without it since they had started dating. Aria didnât know how long she could avoid him and hide her pregnancy from him as with each day that passed, her little bump seemed to look more and more noticeable. She was wearing a beautiful thin strapped long dress that nicely hugged her body and teasingly showed off a hint of her sexy cleavage and rounded hips. The dress was a gorgeous blue colour and if anyone thought it looked good from the front then they clearly hadnât seen the back of it, as it looked even more sexy and tempting from behind.It was held together by a thick flowery strap which
Aria was about to walk over to Adrian when Miles and Jenna both walked over to her hand in hand.âWeâre enjoying the party so far, what about you?â Miles asked with a small smile, before he drank some of his drink. Aria smiled and looked up at him,âItâs good isnât itâ she said as nice Christmas songs played in the background. Jenna smiled and looked at her,âYeah definitely, we also met Adrianâs parentsâ she said excitedly. Aria smiled and looked at her,âHis dad looks a lot like him doesnât heâ she said about Cengiz. Jenna smiled,âYeah, just a lot less seriousâ she said, and it was then Adrian walked over to the group and heard what she said nice and clearly as Jenna wasnât the quietest of people around. He rested his hand on Ariaâs lower back and looked at Jenna,âWhat did you say? I didnât hear you properlyâ he said quietly, making her pretty brown eyes widen. Miles looked at him and smirked,âIf you didnât hear that then you need to get your ears checked outâ he said quickly, m
Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment they reached her apartment and Adrian quickly closed the door after himself and followed her inside. He was going to take her to a nice hotel for the night, but Aria had insisted they go to her apartment instead as Jenna was with Miles anyways. Adrian took of his blazer and watched her quietly as she lead the way up the stairs to her bedroom, thinking she had no fucking idea how good she looked from behind as his eyes fell on her sexy bare back and ass. He picked her up from the floor like she weighed nothing and carried her over his shoulder, before he walked up the last few steps that lead to her bedroom, making her pretty eyes widen. âI could have fallenâ Aria said quietly as she held onto him by his neck, although she knew there was no way he would have let her fall. Adrian tapped her ass gently and wrapped both of his arms around her tightly,âNot under my watchâ he said before he carried her into her very cosy dim lit bedroom and lock
Adrian woke up nice and early the following day and looked down at the sleeping beauty in his arms. He kissed her on the top of her head softly and looked around her quiet room, thinking for the very first time since they had started dating, he had actually spent the whole night with her, as normally he always left once, she fell asleep. He was about to close his eyes for another few minutes when he heard his phone ring and vibrate. He slowly pulled his arm out from under Ariaâs head and searched for it quickly, not wanting to disturb her in any way. He looked around her small bedside table and almost knocked over a few of the candles that were on it, thinking she had an unhealthy obsession with them as she had lots scattered all around, making the room look very cosy.âYour phones so loudâ Aria murmured quietly before she wrapped the duvet around herself and closed her eyes once again, wondering what was taking him so long to answer it. Adrian looked down at her,âNot as loud as h
It was the following day, and Adrian woke up to the early morning sun peering through the small gaps in the curtains, in the main sitting room of his luxurious mansion in Los Angeles. He dropped the cigarette he was holding into the ash tray that was on the table next to him and took in his surroundings. He knew he hadnât slept for long as it was almost near dawn when he had returned home, after having a few too many drinks, something he hadnât done in years. He was never a fan of alcohol as he always liked to be in his right mind, but last night he gave in as he needed something strong to drown out all of his thoughts and feelings. Adrian felt his head pound as he leaned back against the armchair he was sitting on, thinking all he could think about last night was her and even now she was the only one on his mind. âWhat have you done to me beautifulâ he thought to himself as he rubbed both of his temples, thinking a woman was always the least of his worries in the past, but that
Ten days had passed since Adrian had left, and with each passing day Aria was finding it more and more harder to live without him, as she missed him a lot. Christmas day arrived nice and quickly just as it did every year, and as much as Aria didnât want to celebrate it, she decided she would for the sake of Adrianâs parents, who had invited her around for dinner. She knew they were also very upset, as Adrian hadnât contacted them either and she couldnât even imagine what they were going through, not knowing where their only child was.It was just after six in the evening when Aria arrived at their mansion. She was wearing a nice simple dark brown dress, which she wore with black heels. She wore very subtle makeup and had left all of her long hair opened.âMerry Christmas dear how are you?â Angela asked her the moment she stepped inside. Aria met her with a nice tight hug,âI am ok, how are you? Merry Christmas to you toâ she said with a small smile as she held onto her tightly, findin
TRIGGER WARNING-MENTION OF CHILD LOSSAria felt her eyes open and close as she fell in and out of consciousness. The pain in the side of her stomach was unbearable and all she could think about was her little babies. Rylan rushed over to her in a flash and screamed out for help as he picked her up from the floor and pressed down on her wound as tightly as he could, to stop the blood from pouring out anymore then it had already. âAria open your eyesâ he said as he tapped her face gently, the fear clear in his voice. Aria recognised his voice but was too drowned in pain to open her eyes and reply.Rylan screamed out helplessly, hoping someone heard him and called an ambulance as she was losing too much blood. He took of the jacket he was wearing and wrapped it around her tightly, as her body temperature was dropping rapidly, and he was scared of losing her. It wasnât long before Angela heard his plea for help and quickly rushed out of the mansion, along with Cengiz and a few other peop
It was the following day and Aria had gained consciousness just after six in the morning. Adrian had spent the night by her bedside, holding her hand and gently stroking her face and hair. He didnât know how he was going to tell her that one of the twins didnât make it. âYouâre awakeâ he said to her quietly, the sound of relief clear in his slightly deep voice. Aria looked up at him and then down at herself, thinking she had slept for a very long time it seemed. Adrian gently pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly,âForgive me for my carelessness beautiful, I should have never left youâ he said quietly as he held her close and kissed her on the top of her head softly. Aria hugged him back, although she felt like she had no energy.âIâm glad to have you backâ she said with a small smile, as she felt a sharp pain to the side of her stomach and remembered everything had happened last night. Adrian moved a little back from her and looked down at her with a serious look,âI kno
FOURTEEN YEARS LATER. âThis cake is delicious momâ Aria and Adrianâs youngest daughter Angelina said as she sat at the counter and licked her fingers. Aria was busy cooking in the kitchen as today was the day Chase was returning home after spending the last few years in the middle east where he had been busy setting up some new hotels and overlooking some other new projects. If anyone thought that Adrian had done a good job at taking the Delgado name to the top than they clearly didnât know what Chase was capable of, as not only did he take the company to the highest it had ever been, but he had also expanded it out worldwide, making sure every person of status and power out there knew their name. Adrian had raised the perfect son, who was not only intelligent and loyal, but also extremely dangerous when he needed to be. The Delgadoâs were all looking forward to his return and to celebrate Aria had invited all of her and Adrianâs close friends and family over for dinner as she
Aria and Adrian both flew over to North Carolina as quickly as they could and much to their dismay, they found out that Weston had suffered from a fatal gunshot wound to his chest with the bullet narrowly missing his vital organs. He had survived but was put in a medical induced coma to rest his body and mind. The next twenty-four hours were very critical, and all the close family members were told to prepare themselves for the worst, as his current statistics werenât looking very good. Adrian held Aria in his arms and tried his best to console her as she cried uncontrollably, âWake up dad please, we canât lose youâ she said as she took hold of Westonâs hand and kissed it softly, feeling helpless and weak. Nate was hugging Gabriella who was upset but trying her best to be as strong as she could. âEverything will be ok mom, dad will pull throughâ he said confidently before he kissed her on the top of her head softly. Adrian had called all the best surgeons of the city to tr
Aria felt her pretty eyes widen the moment she saw both Adrian and Hunter go for each other and throw punches. Hunter was faster but Adrian was more rougher,âYou want to know the truth, here Iâll tell you everything, yes it was me who got someone to kill your mother, I was also the one who got rid of Rosalina and the reason I took up the job of becoming your womanâs bodyguard was because I wanted her dead. I wanted her to suffer the way she made me suffer, its only a matter of time before she will do the same with you as she did to Rylanâ Hunter said to Adrian loudly as they both fought each other to the ground. Adrian punched him on the nose as hard as he could and watched the blood splatter out from it, âI should have never trusted you and let you in to my circle, Aria was right about you from the very beginning, you were nothing but a waste of spaceâ he said before he punched him again, not giving him enough time to fight back. Aria walked over to them both and looked down at A
It was two hours later, and Aria was patiently waiting for Hunter to arrive. She took a deep breath and quietly paced around the back garden, thinking as much as she didnât want to see him or touch him, she needed to do this for herself and all her and Adrianâs loved ones who had suffered at his hands. She had rang him and told him to come over as she wanted to talk to him about something important. Hunter was a bit hesitant at first but agreed when she told him that Adrian wasnât home, and she could do with some company. He knew it sounded too good to be true but decided to go anyways as he had been meaning to get her alone and what better way to do it then at her own house. Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment her phone beeped, and she realised he was here. She was looking out at the swimming pool in front of her when she heard footsteps.She turned around slowly and looked at Hunter who was dressed more casually than normal. He walked over to her and looked down at her wit
It was the following morning and Aria and Adrian had woken up nice and early, with last night fresh on their minds. Aria had stripped the entire bedding and put some new one on, before she aired the room and made sure no evidence of their wild night was left behind. Adrian buttoned up his shirt in the mirror and looked over at her as she smoothed out the new bedsheet, his eyes falling on her behind, thinking he was surprised she was still walking after being on her knees for the most part of last night. She still couldnât look him in the eyes without blushing and he knew it was because of what he did. He quickly fixed his hair before he put on his jacket and tied his watch around his wrist, thinking a few more times and sheâll get used to it and there was a lot more that he wanted to do with her, with her consent obviously. âYou done cleaning?â he asked her quietly, thinking in under an hour she had made the entire room look good as new and smell nice and refreshing. Aria turn
Adrian walked into Ariaâs old bedroom and quietly locked the door after himself, thinking he had only seen her room once before, but he didnât remember it looking as feminine as it did. It was his first time staying at her folks house and he wasnât sure how he felt about it as he felt pretty out of place, although her whole family had been very welcoming. He took of his jacket and shoes before he walked further into the dim lit room and stopped when his eyes fell on Aria who was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for him patiently. She was wearing a sexy nude and red coloured lingerie set that nicely clung to her body and showed of plenty of her skin.Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment both of their eyes met, and she felt him undress her in his mind. Adrian undid a few more buttons of his shirt and walked over to her quickly, thinking she looked too fucking tempting. She had left all of her long hair opened and was wearing a nice sun kissed body lotion all over her bo
It was a week later, and Aria and Adrian had just arrived in North Carolina where they were going to stay for a night and then head back to New-York city.They were going to leave Lyla with Ariaâs parents for a few days, as the next few days were going to be very crucial for them both, and they wanted her to be as safe and protected as she possibly could. The private jet landed at a small private airport and the family quickly disembarked the plane. Adrian held Lyla in his arms and gently held her against his chest, not wanting any of the paparazzi or photographers to take any pictures of her as he believed she was just too precious for the whole world to see. Aria slipped on her dark shades and followed him down, as the warm evening breeze gently brushed against her face and reminded her that she was finally home, in the city where she had spent most of her life. Jared followed them both quietly, along with a few of Adrianâs other bodyguards who had travelled with them on this sho
Adrian was busy smoking his cigarette when Chase approached him from behind and wrapped an arm around his neck from behind as tightly as he could, taking him by surprise. âWhat do you want now?â he asked him quietly, thinking he was probably just messing around like he always did. Chase didnât let go of him and squeezed on his neck slightly, hoping he got the hint. âDonât moveâ he said before he pulled out the knife from behind him and held it against his neck, thinking what he was about to do felt very wrong, but he needed to do it anyways. Adrian put out his cigarette and remained as calm as possible, as it wasnât the first time someone had tried to kill him.âAre you in your right mind?â he asked with a serious look, thinking he could easily get out of his tight hold, but he was going to make him believe that he was doing a good job at holding him in place. Chase held the sharp knife against the base of his neck and looked down at him angrily,âIâve been waiting for this momen
A few days had passed and both Aria and Adrian had been working hard on finding any dirt they could on Hunter. Adrian had kept him at an armâs length and made sure he didnât get too close to him or any of his loved ones. Everyone had suffered enough already, and he wasnât going to make the same mistake again and let him back into his circle, not after what he had done. He had paid a visit to the hotel where Aria and him had stayed a few weeks ago and like expected had found out that Hunter had bribed one of the security guards there with money, just so that he didnât open his mouth and expose what he had done with Aria. Adrian made sure he was given a copy of the footage from inside the hotel suite before he left and much to his relief, he was glad to find out that Hunter didnât sleep with Aria. He told Aria straightaway as he knew how much it had been eating her up from the inside since the day she had found out. Aria was glad that Hunter didnât take advantage of her, although h
