Chapter 2

Sierra's POV

  I ran to my room in tears

  "Sierra, please open the door"my mother said while knocking on my door heavily.

  "I am fine mum,just ,just go away please?" I said back to her half sobbing half talking.

  "You don't need to worry baby, I will go talk to your father, I Will not let you get married to that Devil" my mum said.

  I sobbed even more knowing there is nothing my mother can do about the marriage alliance and we both know it. She was equally as shocked as I was when my father told us both who I was getting married to, him not telling her beforehand showed that he didn't want her opinion on the matter.

  My heart broke for my mother, Juliana , but broke for myself even more, I will be getting married to the devil himself just two weeks from now, and I just wish I had more time to prepare myself for it even though no amount of time could prepare me for being with him.

  Lucas Luciano,my husband to be is even much worse and scary than his father Vincent is. It is rumoured that he did not live with his father as he grew up, I mean that should have made him more humane right? but no, it made him much more worse. 

  He had once killed a man at a wedding ceremony, right in front of me.

  Infront of more than hundreds of people without batting an eye. 

  We all know that the men in the family kill but not in front of their wives and children at a wedding ceremony at that .

  FLASHBACK.

  It was the marriage between the Salvatore and the Bonanno family, my father had tried to marry me into the Salvatore family but they had declined saying that their son wasn't interested in marriage any time soon which was a lie because we received an invitation to their wedding a month later. 

  After the marriage oath was taken, the men of the five families was gathered around a table with Vincent at the top of the table. 

  The remaining guests were mostly women and we were chatting until we heard a table being banged, we all faced their direction knowing it could all turn pretty bad

  "SIT. BACK. DOWN" a ravishing drop dead gorgeous man said through gritted teeth,he looked stunning as hell,even as he was positioned on the chair,I could tell that he was a very tall man. He looked furious with his eyes darkened as he talked to another man. 

  "Who is that" I heard a woman across me whispering to each other. 

  "That is Lucas Luciano,he is going to be the new Don" another woman replied her. 

  "I heard he is a very brutal man from my husband,who dares to disobey him" she continued. 

  "You do not ta... ahhhhhhhhhh" the man stopped talking and screamed.

  Lucas had stand and stabbed him in the eye with a cutlery"I TOLD YOU TO SIT THE FUCK DOWN" he said .

  He then took his gun from his pant and shot him through the second eye,making the man collapse on his chair, 

  he then smiled and said "now you look better on the chair with your mouth shut".

  Everything quickly turned into chaos,women screaming, children crying,everyone running for their life,the place turned I to shit hole. Then in about five minutes, everywhere was silent,with no one in the hall except for the men talking business as if nothing had happened and me,I was glued to the chair not aware of my surrounding,I could only focus on his face and think about how he could smile after taking a man's life.

  My phone vibrated on my hand, snapping me away from my thought. I hurriedly left the hall and went home.

  He killed a man in front of more than a hundred people and it didn't even faze him.

  "He must have done a lot more worse." I thought to myself then. 

  FLASHBACK ENDS

  "Sierra, open the door "

  "What is wrong,why are you crying mum?" Penelope asked across the room.

  I opened the door and ran to my sister, hugging her tight and crying and wailing on her shoulder.

  "Mum,you can leave" I sniffed "don't worry about me,I will be fine" I said to my mother. She left a few seconds after contemplating.

  "Why are you crying "my sister asked holding my face. 

  "Let us go into my room"I said to her. 

  I sat her down and told her everything my father had told me and my mother,she looked at me with shock in her eyes. 

  "You are getting married? in just two weeks"she asked "to Lucas Luciano?"

  "Yes" I told her

  "To the same Lucas Luciano ". 

  I did not respond to her this time. 

  "No, you cannot get married to him, he he is dangerous, he kills people like he drinks water, you cannot marry someone like him, and, Oh my God " She said covering her mouth with her hand and started crying.

  "The rumour about his father and their family, they might harm you and ,I can't let you may someone like him" she said"why would you marry a man like him?"

  'Do you think I want to marry him? do I have any other choice than to marry him, and you are here telling me I cannot marry him like I have control over who I marry "I said outrageously. 

  "I'm sorry, I just don't know what to do, I don't want to lose you"she said. 

  "Get out" I said silently 

  "just let me be" I whispered

  "what?" she said.

  "Just leave my room, I want to be alone"I said to her. 

  "What"she looked at me with welling eyes. 

  "you want me to leave your room" she said.

  "I just want to be alone right now" I told her. 

  My sister left my room crying.
