ログイン"Aurelia!" She heard a soft voice calling her name. It was Aurora's voice and so Aurelia slowly pulled the sheets off her head to look at Aurora. "Aurelia." Aurora sounded even more relieved to see her face and immediately dropped the basket of fruits she had brought for Aurelia. She quickly hugged her friend tightly and Aurelia hugged her tightly back too. She had missed Aurora and she felt so much at peace with her. Everyone seemed to have hidden things away from her but she was sure Aurora could never have done such. Thinking about it a bit more, Aurelia realized that Ditto must be working for Lucian and if Aurora was dating him, she had to know that Ditto was in the mafia too. She pulled away from the hug quickly and grabbed Aurora by the shoulders. "Aurora," she called. "Yes, Aurelia?" "This might sound shocking to go up but I want you to take it as calmly as you can." "What is that?" Aurora asked. "Ditto." Aurelia whispered his name. "He is in a mafia group with Lucian."
Aurelia felt a mixture of feelings all at once. Feelings that she could identify and a lot more that she could not identify. She suddenly wished she had just died and not woke up from the coma. What was the essence of waking up and being hit with so many news like this?"Yes, he did. Lucian killed his own father. If he could kill the man who gave birth to him, then who am I? Aurelia..." Marcus cupped her face. "If he could do that, then who are you too, Aurelia?""No." Tears dropped as Aurelia shook her head. "There is no way Lucian would have done that." She shook her head. "And why would I lie? Lucian killed his father who was the previous mafia boss just because he wanted to be the boss as soon as possible. He could not wait for his father's death, so he killed his father himself.""No! I refuse to believe all of this." Aurelia refused vehemently. Lucian was not someone who would kill his own family, right? Lucian could be brutal, he could be dangerous, but she had also seen him lo
Aurelia felt her heart breaking into a million tiny pieces. This was the worst day of her life. She had been through so much in the past at the hands of her stepdad, but none of those pains she felt back then was comparable to the pains she was feeling at the moment. Realizing that she never truly knew the man she loved, knowing that his identity was the same as danger, and still finding out that she had lost their baby. What could be worse? "My baby... Our baby," she sobbed."I am sorry," Lucian apologized, but his apologies only made her even madder. He knew what he was involved with and he still let all of this happen. Aurelia could not help but blame him even though she knew he was hurting too. She could have sworn that Lucian had forgotten what it meant to shed tears, but she had seen him shed tears when she had been shot that night and just a few minutes ago when she asked about their baby. "Lucian." It was Marcus's voice and Aurelia slowly pulled away from Lucian's embrace.
"How... why did you chase Lucian out?" Aurelia asked as her headache reduced. "Aurelia." Marcus sighed softly and Aurelia furrowed her brows at him. "What exactly happened that night?" She asked Marcus, but of course got no response from her brother. "We were out on a night ride and then... these men were chasing after us and Lucian had a... he had a gun with him in the car!" "Aurelia, don't think about these things for now. Just eat a little and go back to sleep. You are still weak and..." "No!" Aurelia cut him off with a pretty loud voice as she recalled what she had heard that night. "Lucian! I heard what one of the men said... they... they said Lucian was in the mafia." Her eyes widened and her grip on the bed tightened. "And Lucian didn't deny that! Is... is that true? Is Lucian in the mafia?" Aurelia asked, her right hand leaving the sheets and grabbing Marcus's hands quickly. "Is it true? Is... is my Lucian involved in the mafia? Did you know about this too? Have you been
Two weeks later, Lucian was seated on a chair beside Aurelia. It had been two weeks already and yet Aurelia had not woken up. Lucian had ensured he spent enough time around her, though. He wanted to be with her when she woke up. Lucian was scared that it could take years for Aurelia to wake up like it was in the case of some other people, but no matter how long it would take her to wake up, he was going to be by her side.And yet if she woke up now, he had no idea how he was supposed to tell her that their baby was gone already. He was sure Aurelia had heard everything that night and she now knew what he was involved in. He wondered if she would hate him now after all he had caused her—so much pain to the point where he hated his own self, even. It was all his fault that she was in this situation and that their baby died. Lucian let out a sharp exhale, trailing Aurelia's hand with his thumb gently. He had been broken when he found out from the doctor that they lost the child, and Mar
Lucian was waiting outside of Aurelia's room, pacing around worriedly, not minding his leg. "Aurelia," he mumbled her name and punched the wall. "Boss," Ditto called worriedly. "You are injured. You should be in your room, please. Aurelia will be fine." "Just shut the fuck up. She is in a coma. Aurelia is in a coma," Lucian groaned, trying hard not to let the tears roll down. "Where is he?" Marcus raced in. "You bastard!" He yelled immediately as he set his eyes on Lucian and, without caring about the state he was in, he punched Lucian down. Ditto stood back, not wanting to get involved in a fight between his boss and Marcus. "You fucking bastard! I told you! I told you not to stay with her! I knew you would not be able to protect her, bastard! I knew you would not be able to!" He punched Lucian to his satisfaction before pulling away with bleeding knuckles. Lucian pulled himself up to sit on the floor, lacking the strength and the will to get to his feet. "Where... where is s
Ditto walked into the VVIP wardwhere Lucian Romano was, his car key in his hands.“Good morning boss,” he greeted,bowing his head slightly.The soft look that had been on Lucian’s face when he had been with Aurelia Russo vanished, completely replaced by a stern, hard look.“Who was it?” Lucian qu
Aurelia sighed softly as she watched Lucian sleep.She held his hand in hers, her heart still pounding.He was out of danger now. The doctor had said the bullet hadn’t hit any vital organs or blood vessels, so he would be fine in a couple of weeks.“Lucian,” she whispered, kissing the back of his h
Lucian walked past Aurelia’s room, his head throbbing and his heart aching.He stopped by her door, which was slightly open, and he could hear her sobbing.Lucian’s heart ached even more, knowing that he was pretty much the reason she was crying tonight.He had never intended to make her see this s
That Night“You really only do what you want, Lucian,” Aurelia shook her head as she handed him a glass of water.They were in the living room of his home since Lucian had insisted on getting discharged, and with his influence and affluence, he was discharged in no time.“I don’t like the hospital,
