Chapter 14: Daily Life Day 3

I come out of my room and is met with Stavros just getting ready to knock on my door. “Are you ready?” He asked me as he places a kiss to my cheek. “Yeah, let's go.” We walk towards the dining room with are arms linked through each other’s. Once we get down there we take our seats. Everyone was already seated when we arrived, My father was getting ready to speak when we hear a commotion from the entry way.

         Rocco entered the dining room, face red with anger. “SO, YOU ACTUALLY WENT THROUGH WITH IT? WHY? BECAUSE  YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH MY FIANCE?” “Your fiancé, since when?” “YOU AND MR. STRATTON TOLD ME THE DAY THAT SHE WAS BORN, HE EVEN LET ME HOLD HER!!! WAS IT ALL A LIE? WHAT ARE YOU TWO PLAYING AT?  I WANT TO KNOW AND I WANT TO KNOW NOW!!!”

         “Rocco calm down, so we can talk like adults and not children.” John suggested. “Fine, you want me calm.” He took a few deep breaths “Ok, this is as calm as I can get.” “You know how I feel about arranged marriages since getting my daughter back? I want her to marry for love, because of everything that she has been through for seventeen years. Can't you understand how she must feel?”

         “I'll tell you how I feel, trapped, confused, no control over my own life!!! This arranged marriage, even though it means nothing to me since it won't be happening, makes me feel the same way I did while being held captive by Draven!!! Is that really a marriage that you want, Rocco?” “No!” That's what he says but walks over to Analina's sit and pulls her up and drags her towards the door of the dining room.

         “LET ME GO!!!” She screams, instead he grabs her by the back of the neck and kisses her hard and positively. “NO, I WON'T!!! YOU ARE MINE, DO YOU HEAR ME, MINE!!!” He yells as he tries to drag her out of the room. Giving him a hard time by fighting all the way, he picked her up and  through her over his shoulder walking away with her kicking, punching and screaming the whole time. “I'll plan your dream wedding!!!” Liliana says to her daughter just before the front door slams behind them.

                                        Analina's P.O.V.

         “I'll plan your dream wedding!!!” Was the last thing I heard excitingly from my mother before the front door slammed behind us. “OVER! MY! DEAD! BODY!!!” I screamed at the door. Rocco placed me gently into the car and then got into the driver seat locking all the doors before starting the car. “Where are you taking me?” I demanded. “Your brother's.” He answered.

         “I want to go back home, I just started a new life, that I would like to live. Please, Rocco.” I plead with him. “There's no going back, and as for going to Mexico with the three old perverts, you’re not going. Of course, no meeting up with your past lover's!!!” He tells me this in a controlling and possessive manner. We pull  into the driveway of Jonathan's house, he comes around and unlocks my door and again picks me up, throwing me over his shoulder. I kick, punch and scream as we enter the house again.

         “THIS IS KIDNAPPING!!!” I scream as Rocco slams the door behind us. Jonathan and Mariann make their way to the foyer and watching the sight before them. Jonathan laughs while Mariann has a look of pity on her face.

         “Mariann, take Analina to her room.” As she left  with Analina, Rocco and Johnathan went to his office. After entering the office Jonathan takes his seat behind his desk, while Rocco sits in one of the chairs in front of him. “Did anyone follow you?” “No.” While they were talking about what they were to do next, unknown to them was a problem just outside of the house.

         Enzo walks carefully up to the door and looks into the window on the left side of the door. Rocco puts Analina down as she screams “THIS IS KIDNAPPING!!!” He  backs away from the window and hiding behind a bush he quietly makes a phone call. “Stavros?” “Not now Enzo, we're trying to find Analina!” “I know where she is, she's at Jonathan's.” “How do you know this?” “I followed Rocco, your son still has a lot to learn, he wasn't cautious about being followed. He never knew that I was behind him. So, what's the plan? Do you want me to go in and take her back?” “No, wait for us, John, Rodrick and I are on our way.” “Ok.”

         Rocco leaves the office to go see Analina, as he enters her room he comes face to face with a heated argument between Mariann and Analina. “I can tell that you don't agree with my brother and Rocco. So why are you doing their bidding?” “You're not married yet Analina you wouldn't  understand.” “Try me.” “It's to keep the peace between us, I don't want to disagree with him and have him leave me.” “He wouldn't do that, my father disagrees with my mother, she's all for this marriage. Grow some balls, have a back bone, Mariann. LET ME GO HOME, I DON'T DESERVE THIS!!!” “NO!!! I'M NOT PUTTING MY MARRIAGE IN JEAPORITY OR SOME PREGNANT SLUT!!!” “OH, SO THAT'S WHAT YOU REALLY THINK OF ME, WAIT TO JONATHAN HEARS ABOUT THIS.” “WHY DO THINK HE IS DOING THIS TO YOU, HE'S TTRYING TO SAVE YOUR SLUTY REPUTATION.”

         At this point Rocco  comes in pissed that Mariann called he's future wife a slut, but before he can say anything Analina walks up to Mariann and slaps her hard across the face leaving a dark red hand print. “LEAVE, MARIANN, NOW!!!” “YOU'RE LUCKY THAT YOUR PREGNANT.” She says as she walks out of the door. Analina sits on the edge of the bed as Rocco takes a seat next to her. “I want  to go home, Rocco.” “I'm sorry sweetheart, I can't allow that. We are to be married on Saturday.” “I'm so supposed to be in Mexico on Saturday!!!” She stands up from the bed and walks over to the window crying. Rocco stands and walks over behind her, putting his arms around her. He then turns her around and starts to wipe  away her tears. “Please don't cry.” He says as he starts to kiss her tears away.      

         He looks down at her lips and giving into his urge, he kisses her. As to both of their surprise she doesn't stop the kiss, but she puts her arms around his neck and kisses him back. Analina stops the kiss and walking around Rocco and going towards the middle of the room she just stands there feeling shocked, surprised and most of all  confused by her actions. “We need to talk.” Rocco says to her. She just stands there and nods her head “yes.” “Listen, Analina. I never met to hurt you, I started falling in love with you the moment that I caught you from collapsing to the floor of the bar.”

         Meanwhile outside the front door stands Enzo, Rodrick, Stavros and John. John pulls out his copy of the house key and the four of them walk in. “Go get Analina!” He commands of Enzo. Running up the stairs and barging through the door he sees Rocco and Analina talking, but she stops once she sees Enzo and runs into his arms crying in relief. He escorts her down stairs and to the foyer. “Are you ok.” He asked her while cupping both of her cheeks with his hands, while taking his thumbs and wiping away her tears.
