The small chapel was adorned with modest white roses, their soft fragrance filling the air. Bella Russo stood at the altar, her fingers clutching a bouquet that felt heavier than it should.

Her wedding gown was a vision of understated elegance, its ivory lace shimmering faintly in the dim light. The fitted bodice highlighted her slender frame, while the flowing skirt and delicate veil gave her an ethereal appearance. She looked like a bride from a fairytale, but nothing about this day felt magical.

Dominic Moretti stood beside her, towering and silent. His tailored black suit hugged his broad shoulders, and his sharp features betrayed no emotion. He hadn’t said a single word since arriving, yet his mere presence commanded the attention of everyone in the room.

On one side of the aisle sat Bella’s father and sister, their faces heavy with guilt and sadness. On the other, Dominic’s family radiated power and cold detachment. The contrast was stark, and Bella felt like an outsider in her own wedding.

The priest’s calm voice broke through the silence. “Do you, Isabella Russo, take Dominic Luciano Moretti to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love and to cherish, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?”

Bella hesitated, her throat tightening. Her gaze flickered to Dominic, whose expression remained impassive. Her lips trembled as she glanced at her father, who avoided her eyes, and then at her sister, who gave her an encouraging but tearful nod.

“I... I do,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.

The priest turned to Dominic. “And do you, Dominic Luciano Moretti, take Isabella Russo to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?”

Dominic gave a single nod, his gray eyes unwavering.

“You may exchange rings,” the priest announced.

Bella’s hands trembled as Dominic slid the gold band onto her finger. When it was her turn, she fumbled, almost dropping the ring before managing to place it on his hand. He didn’t react, his calm demeanor unshaken.

The priest closed his book. “By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.”

Bella’s stomach twisted as Dominic turned to her. His movements were deliberate as he lifted her veil. He leaned in, his lips brushing against hers briefly not with affection, but as if sealing a deal.

The small audience clapped politely, but Bella barely noticed. Her chest felt tight, her breaths shallow.

The ceremony was over. She was now Isabella Moretti.

The drive back to her family’s modest home was suffused with an uneasy silence. Bella sat beside Dominic in the backseat of the limousine, her hands clasped tightly in her lap. He didn’t say a word, his gaze fixed out the window, his expression unreadable.

When they arrived, Bella stepped out of the car, her gown trailing behind her. Dominic remained by the car as she approached her family for what felt like the last time.

Her father was the first to embrace her. “Bella,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.

She stiffened for a moment before relaxing into his arms. “You should have protected me,” she whispered, her voice breaking.

“I had no choice,” he said, his voice shaking. “This was the only way.”

Bella pulled back, wiping her eyes. “You always have a choice.”

Her sister Elena stepped forward, her own tears falling freely. “Bella, please be safe,” she said, wrapping her arms tightly around her. “And don’t forget us, okay?”

Bella clung to her sister, her body trembling with suppressed sobs. “I won’t,” she promised, though her voice betrayed her uncertainty.

As the driver opened the car door, Bella turned back to her family one last time. The sight of her father and sister, their faces etched with guilt and sadness, broke the last of her composure. She raised her hand to wave goodbye, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Her father nodded at her, his face pale. Elena covered her mouth to stifle her sobs.

Dominic stepped forward, his hand resting lightly on Bella’s lower back as he guided her into the car. She glanced back at her family, her heart aching as the car door shut, separating her from them.

The limousine pulled away, and Bella watched through the rearview mirror as her home and the life she had known disappeared into the distance.

__

It was already night time before they reached the Moretti estate, a sprawling mansion surrounded by high iron gates and towering stone walls. The sheer size of it was overwhelming, but Bella felt no comfort in its grandeur.

Dominic led her inside without a word, his pace steady as if this were just another transaction. The grand foyer was vast and cold, its marble floors and towering ceilings exuding wealth but little warmth.

He guided her up a winding staircase to a large bedroom at the end of the hall. Bella stepped inside hesitantly, her chest tightening as the door closed behind them.

The room was elegant but impersonal, with dark furniture and muted tones. A large bed with crisp white sheets dominated the space, and Bella’s stomach churned as she realized what was expected of her.

She turned to Dominic, her voice trembling. “What happens now?”

He didn’t respond. Instead, he moved closer, his sharp gaze locking onto hers. Bella took a step back, her heart racing.

Dominic reached for the tie at his neck, loosening it with slow precision. His movements were calm, methodical, as though undressing in front of her was the most natural thing in the world.

Bella’s breath hitched. “I..I’m not ready,” she stammered, her voice cracking. “Please, I just need some time. I’m only 18.

his voice low and dangerous. “You should have said you wanted me to undress you myself... and I don’t mind doing that.”

When his lips touch hers, Bella fights to push him away. Her hands press against his chest, but her touch only fuels his desire. hot breaths coming from his mouth, he thought to himself,how this little kid is able to get him this aroused,Dominic won’t stop until he has her completely.with a sharp move he unzipped her dress and started removing the dress, and slowly her boobs came to view, he gulped down nothing as he saw the size, it was unexpectedly lemon sized, he cupped her boobs in his hands causing her to moan out, the effect that had on him was unhealthy, he resumed kissing her crazily,

    The soft light of dawn seeped through the heavy curtains in Dominic’s room. He groaned, pressing a hand to his temple as a dull ache throbbed in his head. His memories of the previous night were fragmented, like shards of glass scattered in his mind. He remembered drinking too much, seeing Bella dancing, and... kissing her.Dominic sat up abruptly, his heart racing. His lips pressed into a thin line as he tried to piece it all together. “What the hell was I thinking?” he muttered under his breath, running a hand through his disheveled hair.Determined to regain his composure, he dressed and headed to the dining room. The faint sound of upbeat music reached his ears as he approached, and his brow furrowed in confusion.As he stepped into the dining room, the sight before him left him speechless.

  • the mafia's little bride    Boundaries and memories of the past

    Bella tiptoed into the dining room, her hands nervously clutching the hem of her sweater. Dominic sat at the head of the table, his expression unreadable as he sipped his coffee. The tension in the room was thick, and Bella struggled to keep her composure. She glanced at him briefly but quickly averted her gaze when their eyes met.“Good morning,” she muttered softly, barely audible.Dominic didn’t respond. Instead, he set his cup down with a sharp clink, making Bella flinch. His intense gaze followed her every movement as she moved toward her seat.The silence stretched uncomfortably until Dominic finally spoke, his deep voice cutting through the air like a blade.“Where were you last night?” he demanded.Bella froze, unsure how to respond. “I… I was just throwing out the trash,” she stammered, her voice shaking.Dominic’s jaw tightened. “And you thought it was a good idea to wander off in the middle of the night without telling anyone?”“I didn’t wander off,” Bella said defensively.

  • the mafia's little bride    the confrontation

    Bella sat on her bed, her heart racing as the events of the evening replayed in her mind. The terrifying look in Dominic’s eyes when he faced the intruder, the brutal way he handled the situation, and finally, his cryptic accusations about her father. None of it made sense. Her father wasn’t involved in anything shady—at least, she was sure he wasn’t.But Dominic’s words echoed in her mind. “Your father’s actions have put a target on your back.”Pushing her growing fear aside, Bella stood abruptly. She couldn’t let this go unanswered. She needed to know what Dominic meant. Steeling herself, she hurried downstairs, searching for him.She found him in his study, seated at the large mahogany desk with a drink in his hand. His sharp features were partially obscured by shadows, but his piercing gaze immediately locked onto her as she entered.“Dominic,” Bella began, her voice firmer than she expected, “what did you mean about my father’s actions? What’s going on?”Dominic set his glass dow

  • the mafia's little bride    intrusion

    The tension in the room lingered long after Dominic left Bella standing in the kitchen. Her hands were still trembling slightly as she scrubbed the dishes, trying to distract herself from the piercing intensity of their earlier conversation. Dominic had a way of getting under her skin, and even when he left the room, his presence seemed to linger, unsettling her in ways she didn’t understand.With a heavy sigh, Bella finished rinsing the last plate and stacked it neatly on the drying rack. She reached for her phone, deciding she needed a little music to calm her nerves. She plugged in her earphones and selected her favorite playlist, setting it to shuffle. A fast-paced pop song began to play, and she couldn’t help but sway her hips to the rhythm as she wiped down the counters.Soon, her movements turned more energetic. The music pulled her in, and she danced around the kitchen, her earlier worries momentarily forgotten. She spun on her heels, singing into an imaginary microphone made

    Angelo approached Bella, who was still standing in the same spot, her hand trembling slightly from the encounter.“Are you okay?” he asked, his tone uncharacteristically gentle.Bella nodded, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “I’m fine,” she said, though her voice wavered slightly.He hesitated for a moment, his sharp eyes studying her. “You handled that well,” he said finally.Bella managed a small smile. “Thanks, I guess.”Angelo nodded, his usual stoicism returning as he stepped back. “Let’s finish up here. Dominic won’t want you out for too long.”Bella didn’t argue. She collected her purchases and allowed Angelo to escort her back to the car. As they drove back to the mansion, she couldn’t help but replay the incident in her mind. For the first time in a long time, she’d stood up for herself, and it felt strangely empowering.What she didn’t realize was how much of an impression it had left on Angelo and how Dominic would react when he heard about it.The ride back to the
