Kiana Smith, the daughter of a carpenter got betrothed to A Mafia Lord at the age of eighteen because her father failed to pay back the huge sum of money he borrowed. Now at 20 years old, The Mafia Lord is back to get a replacement for his money. ********** Extract from the story ********** "No!!! You can't just give me off to him like that!" I wailed, struggling against the hold of the huge men that were keeping me in place. "I'm sorry, Kiana. But this is beyond my control. You have been promised to him ever since you turned 18." My father said, his head bowed in despair. "Nooooooo." I screamed as the huge men dragged me out of the house.

Chapter 40KIANA“I’m done. This is it. Watch me shake the world.”That was the moment I clicked Publish on my hook. I have never been this happy in my life! It felt like I had finally pushed a heavy burden off my shoulders. My heart pounded so hard I could feel it in my fingertips, in my ears, in my throat. The sound was so loud it felt like it had taken over the room, like even the city outside might stop for a second just to hear it. The glow of the laptop screen lit up my face, throwing pale blue light on my trembling hands.And then it was out there. That was the main news! It was really out there!My words were no longer mine alone. They belonged to the internet and to strangers who would read them, love them, hate them, tear them apart, or hold them close.I sat there staring at the screen, breathing in shallow bursts. Those lines I had just sent into the world didn’t feel like sentences anymore. They felt like a dream came through. And maybe they were. Because what came n

Chapter 39KIANA“Are you seriously alive?” My voice cracked like a loud whip as I slapped him hard. The sting in my palm was not just for him. It was for every second I thought I had lost him forever.Aiden blinked, caught off guard. “I thought you had moved on too fast. What happened? What, exactly?”I stepped back, my chest heaving heavily as my heart kept pounding like a war drum. “Moved on? You vanished all of a sudden and I buried you in my mind a thousand times.” I answered and he smiled, but it was a sharp thing. Whenever he smiled like that, I could see his heart slicing into pieces. “I had to. For the final move.”“The final move?” I echoed as my voice trembled. My hands shook as they instinctively pressed against my belly. Months into pregnancy and the weight of the life inside me felt heavier now than ever before. “Explain! Now. You aren't even making sense!”He looked away and his brows furrowed . I wasn't going to let him come in here because he can. “I drew D

Chapter 38KIANAWeeks later“I think I’m going to fall,” I said to myself before the spoon in my hand slipped, clattering onto the plate. The whole room spun around me and the light above me flickered. Before I knew what was happening, my knees gave way.I didn’t even feel the floor.When my eyes blinked open, I saw Aiden’s face right above me with his sharp jaw and furrowed brows.His eyes were wide like he had just watched me die. I had no idea what was happening.How did I even find myself here?“Kiana. Hey. Look at me,” his voice was low but trembling.I tried to move but my head felt like it weighed a hundred pounds. I felt so heavy up there and the room was spiralling . “I’m… fine.”“No, you are not.” His hands cupped my face like he was afraid I’d vanish. “You just fainted in the middle of breakfast. What’s the matter? This is very unlike you. ”From somewhere behind him, Emma’s voice wavered. “We should take her to the hospital. Now.”“I said I’m fine,” I shouted out. My

Chapter 37AIDEN"Take it off."She froze like I had just set the room on fire. I knew that if I didn't do it tonight, she was going to set the whole house on fire. I don't have any excuse now. I was alive and well and this was going to be our first night together. I wasn't in the hospital anymore. “You heard me right. Take it off.”The soft rustle of her dress against her skin made my throat tighten. Kiana stood in front of me, her fingers twitching near the hem, her breath uneven. We were finally alone, really alone with no disturbance whatsoever. There were no tubes around me, no hospital smell, and no fear hanging over us. It was just us and our first night. With the look on her face, I was very sure that she had always been expecting this. She has waited all through to experience our first night today. "You heard me. Take it off, slowly."She let out a shaky laugh, biting her lip. That damn lip I kept thinking about even when I was on morphine. I watched her chest rise,
