GABRIELLA

A lot was going to happen that night, but pleasure was far from it. I stared right at Marcello, who was bare chested, lounging on the bed like he owned the air I breathed.

What was he thinking? A consummation of the marriage vows? Never! A marriage that was built on force had no future.

“You successfully forced me into this marriage, and for some reason you think you’ve won. You haven’t!”

“The problem is, you think this is a fight, but it isn’t,” he chuckled. “I have won already… so this act of yours is quite interesting.”

“Interesting? You murder my father and then drag me to your house to play wife,” I replied.

Getting up from his bed, “Oh, please, your father wasn’t as innocent as you think he is. He was a treacherous…”

“Don’t you dare speak about my father like that,” I cut in. “He’s a dead man, you killed him, so you have no right to insult his name!”

Marcello closed the space between us in three quiet steps.

“Unfortunately, I don’t have the time to engage in an argumen

    Gabriella“I never doubted my brother for a second,”Of course, I knew that quite well, and even if he was the murderer. I wouldn’t blame her if she still defended her. He was all she had.Adrianna reached out to be squeezing my shoulders softly, “Stefan has always been the mastermind behind the chaos, I know my brother might come off as…”“Scary?”“Angry,” she corrected her eyes darting away from mine. “But to me, he’s always that ten-year-old boy who saved me from the fire that took my parents.”I felt even sadder thinking he'd be responsible for his parents’ death, I was pissed I’d been attacking the wrong person. What if I’d successfully poisoned him? What would then happen next?Adrianna stood, “I know you would never understand because you hate him, but I hope you can forgive him.”Girl, I don’t need to forgive him. He is off my target list. My eyes are on Stefan now. In fact, I was now Marcello’s new assistant in tracking Stefan but I wouldn't tell anyone about this discovery.

    GabriellaAfter the deed had been done crawled onto her bed trembling under the duvet. Her eyes shut as beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She was in pain but it was worth it.Another day came, and she acted normal, brushed her teeth, and slipped into a satin dress. I had breakfast with Marcello and Adrianna but something was different today.I dug into the lamb while Marcello’s eyes never left the newspaper he was holding. Adrianna was quiet, things have been weird, ever since I tried to attack her.I shouldn’t have done that, she was only trying to help me and now she’s drifting away. She probably thinks I needed the space. “I need to attend the seminar," Adriana highpitched voice resounded in the air.“I’m sorry, but you can’t,” Marcello said, not bothering to look up at her. “Why? I’m not your captive!” Oh! She was finally seeing the light! She now believes he was nothing but a sick person who likes keeping people trapped against their will.“You got kidnapped, Adrianna,

    GabriellaNever did I ever dream that this day would come.I stared at the two lines on the strips, and instantly, the dam broke, and tears rolled down freely.I didn't even care if I was loud or not, the emotions were too hard to contain. How could I get pregnant by a monster?I covered my mouth with my hand as I tried to stop the sobs, then I did the next sensible thing I could think of. Flush the pregnancy strip. Get rid of the evidence, No one would ever know this. It will remain my secret. hear of this. Not even Luca will hear of this. I turned on the tap, washed my red face with water, dabbed it with a towel, and cleared my throat, staring at myself in the mirror. I hadn’t noticed until now how different I looked.The weight gain, the glow, it’s like I gained extra pounds which was impossible in this mansion. I used that opportunity to take a shower, scrubbing my skin till it was pink and clean. For some reason, I enjoyed staying under the warm shower. It calmed my brain.

    GabriellaI was still pointing the knife at Adrianna when Luca stepped in, his eyes widened with shock.“Gabriella, what are you doing?” He asked.“I just…” I blinked back tears, “I just want to be free.”“You will be free soon.” Luca slowly walked up to me, took the knife from me, and carried me up to my room. I was sure Adrianna was shocked by this sudden, strange behavior of mine. But even I didn’t understand myself.Luca placed me on the bed, and I sat my legs against my chest. “What are you doing?” He asked, not in an angry tone, but in a thoughtful tone, as if he was concerned about my well-being.“I don’t know, I think I’m going crazy, maybe the house is finally getting to me.” I sniffed.He let out a sigh and brought out the white strip from his pocket, “Here, you said you needed this.”I snatched it from him, “Thanks. Really. You’ve been so helpful.”He nodded, “You’re welcome, Gabriella. I know it’s not easy but you need to hold on. I’d come up with something.”I nodded my

    GabriellaSince the few months I stayed with Marcello, I'd never fallen ill.Not even when he locked me in a disgusting basement that stinked with pee and mold.I survived being there for days, I was starved, weak, and exhausted. Yet I wasn’t throwing up around the whole place like some pregnant ….I paused, clutched my belly, could I be pregnant?I sat up with urgency, I was still lying on the king-sized bed in Marcello’s room. These past few days he never let me out of his sight, not even for a minute.He’d check up on me from time to time, making sure I wasn’t sick again. I rose slowly from the bed and dragged my feet to the door, I twisted the doorknob wishing to be free but it was locked. Somehow the sickness made me even more frustrated with staying here. No matter how much I wandered around the mansion, I’d always remain his helpless prisoner wife.I banged my fist against the door, “Help me,” I yelled as if the house were bursting into flames. The door clicked open and

    MarcelloTonight was the night I haunt Jose Miguel.I finished the last button on my black long-sleeve shirt, giving the mirror one last glance.Jose Miguel won’t see me coming and when I strike, he’d be too engrossed in his pleasures to fight back.When my stepfather was still alive, he gave him a hard time. He’s borrowing and not paying on time. He’d flee for three days to the day he was supposed to pay back. He was corny but brutal too. He also handled his enemies with an iron fist, but not me; I won’t back down until I get every last penny.There’s a knock at the door, and Luca peeks his head in.“Boss, the men are ready.”“Good, because today we’d paint the city red, red with Jose Miguel’s blood.”The ride to the nightclub was less than an hour. Before I stepped in, I wore a black shade for disguise. I didn’t want him to see me coming. Not even by mistake.They let me into the club without any hassle even though it was private. They knew me, the inferno lord who was feared by al
