Aria

I’d escaped, not one person was following me and I was free and clear.

Letting out a sigh of relief I finally let my shoulders relax and slowed. The last thing I wanted to do was draw attention to myself by walk running. I was meant to be a tourist.

Behind me I heard the first wail of siren, and I couldn’t help it I smiled to myself. My aim had been true , I’d seen the blood explode out of the man’s chest a second before I’d made my escape.

Elio was dead. Or if he wasn’t then he was badly hurt and would hopefully succumb to his injuries in the hospital and I would be free.

A man like him would have plenty of enemies, it wasn’t like he was going to die old and surrounded by grandkids in his bed. He was always going to die the way he lived. Brutal and bloody. And he had a lot of enemies.

Plus no one even knew I was here. I’d used a fake id. And i would leave the country on another one.

There was absolutely no way they could trace the assignation back to me.

    DanteMadonna. She was beautiful. Every single photo I had ever seen didn’t do her justice but it did give me someone to go after seconds after the glass exploded and a bullet had lodged in the old man’s chest.We had been warned she was dangerous but never in a million years did I think she was capable of that.She was more than a pretty face that was sure. She was dangerous.Keeping the gun pressed into her skull, I stepped back to feast my eyes on her back. Slender waist , full hips and an ass I instantly wanted to bite.Delectable.BiteableThe kind of woman that brought men to their knees with their curves.Yeah Gio’s sister was so much more than a pretty face.“I think you have the wrong person.” Her voice was heavily accented but it was fake. “My name’s not Aria and I don’t know who Gio is.”Throwing back my head I laughed. She really was good. “Is that right?” Again I took her in. She might be able to fool everyone else that she was just a normal woman visiting a grave but sh

    AriaThe sound of my heels was loud on the cobblestone path. Click, clack, click- my ankle rolled over and I almost cried out as a shot of pain lanced through me but at the last minute I righted myself and went back to walking with my back ramrod straight.No one looked at me. But why would they? I was just another woman, a tourist walking down the street in shoes that weren’t suitable for the terrain. Little did they know that I was so much more than a tourist. I’d been here many times before over the years. It was our home land after all. Although my father had made his base in the United States and my brother had seemed to settle in the United Kingdom.I didn’t have a permanent home in any of those places. I didn’t have a home anywhere. How could I when I wanted my freedom?So I travelled, I saw the world and I stayed the fuck away from everything The Family did. I’d even changed my hair, my whole appearance wasn’t what Gio remembered. I doubted he would even recognise me, nowNot

    TaylorHe had ruined my dream wedding dress. There was blood and spit all over the beautiful lace skirt. Closing my fist I pulled my arm back to strike him again.“Easy there tiger.” My feet left the floor as The Judge picked me bodily up.“She's as crazy as you are.”Holding me tight to his body, the judge started to laugh. “Oh i think she might be worse, if i was you. I would leave.” He jerked his chin towards the door.“This isn't over you know. Not by a long shot. One way or another I will take you all down. I don't even care how long it takes.”I answered him with a snarl, snapping my teeth at him like an animal. I was angry. Angrier than I had ever been. Today had been nerve wracking enough without some crazy policeman telling lies and making things worse and the fact that he had broken into my home doesn't bare thinking about. “Good luck with that. I'm going to make sure you aren't an officer of the law for much longer. if there's one thing I hate it's dirty cops.” The judge

    JudgeThe day was beautiful. The kind of day that artists painted. All blue skies and fluffy white clouds. It was the perfect day to get married.Or would have been if I'd had a bride to marry. There would be no magical day for me. Not that I had believed for a second that I could have the same kind of happily ever after that Gio and Keeley had. They were the exception. Not the rule. I had touched it though, tasted that happiness and it left a bitter taste on my tongue. Not because I didn't like it but because I wanted more. I still had hope that i would get to sample it again. Even when i knew that hope was so far fetched it might as well be a fairytale.And that was why I was here. In what would have been our honeymoon suite. Alone and with no bride. No traces of her but the dress I had picked out because she loved it hanging from the wardrobe door. Taylor wasn't here, getting ready somewhere and excited to meet me at the altar and she never would be. I had let her go. Messe

    TaylorGetting back to normal was easier than I expected it to be. I excused myself from the trial , and flatly refused to speak about it and I went back to work. I threw myself into work. I worked so much and took on so many extra shifts that I knew my boss was worried about me. but she didn't ask what was wrong and I didnt tell her.I didn't tell anyone.What had happened between me and The Judge was private and it would remain private. I wouldn’t tell anyone where I had been the last few days. I would act like it had never happened.Pulling the iced coffee towards me, I stared into it. seeing nothing and feeling even less. Is this what it is like to be dead? this absolute lack of any kind of emotion. I didn't like it but I couldn't shake it either. I was existing instead of living. Was the Judge? Was he out there somewhere, wishing things were different or did he think he'd had a lucky escape. There was so much I wanted to ask him. and why was the most important question i coul
