"WHAT?" Adriano's words left me in disbelief. He must be joking right? This ain't no place for a joke.Everyone's eyes were on me.The fear in my heart is immense. Never in my life have I been so terrified."Are you high, Adriano? Do you even understand what you are even saying. Have you completely lost your mind?" I couldn't recover from the shock that he just gave me.He looked dead serious."Well, did I warn you before. I warned you several times but I don't understand how you were living in your own little world, dreaming with your eyes open and thinking that you can even stand a chance against me? Really?" His words hurt me as they came out of his mouth."Now Emilia, unlike you we all here have a business to run. So quit wasting our time and do what Adriano says. As quickly as possible." Dante jumped in the argument.Argh, I hate this man so much. Someone teach him to shut up. Every single words that comes out of his mind makes my blood boil. Adriano can stand on the second posit

"Chose one Adriano. Either them or me." I put forward my condition. There is no way his family and I can ever get along.Plus, it puts me on a place of advantage. If he chooses me then he will have to turn against his family.Adriano stood silently over there for minutes trying to absorb my words, then he finally spoke."You know that you are my priority, Emilia. I don't need to prove it to anyone, not even to you. If it's not me standing between you and my uncles you would have been dead by now. You matter the most to me without a doubt." It hurts to hear it from his mouth. But then again I reminded myself that how good Adriano is at lying.I cannot be caught in these webs of emotions anymore. I have learnt my lesson the harder way.There is no going back to Adriano, I would rather choose death.I hate him so much but still a very tiny part of my heart wants him to be a good guy.Deep down, very deep though I still wish that Adriano was never a bad guy. I wanted this marriage to work

When I opened my eyes, I found myself in the bed. I scanned my environment and nothing feels familiar. Then I saw the syringes and bottles and hospital beds and realised I am admitted in hospital.My whole body pains.My leg is plastered, I am sure some bone are damaged. Even if I try to move my leg it kills me.It feels so painful to move even a single inch.I am alive. I cannot believe I am alive.I thanked God.Doctors rushed in to check on me, but did not say anything to me. After assuring that everything was fine and now I am in stable state they left me alone to rest.But how did I get here? And where is John? Who brought me to the hospital? I lifted my eyes to see Sofia standing right across me, staring at my injured body.Shit. I know I failed Sofia when I did not take her side. Adriano sent her off to the brothel ad she was very upset. She must be really angry with me. And now maybe she knows that I am behind the explosion.She came towards me. "Sofia. I can explain. They w

Life had taken a significant turn for me, and put me in a difficult condition.Though I am far from the world of darkness and fear I had once known I am out into the fear of newness. I had found something that is the provider of peace and healing, and my new daily routine brought a sense of normalcy that I had yearned for.I started working in a local library.Working in the local library had become an escape for me.I enjoy the company of books. I love being alone and surrounded by books.Each day, I would arrive to the gentle hum of whispered conversations and the soft rustling of pages. I really enjoyed every minute of it. The serene and silent atmosphere of the library offered a peaceful environment and calmed my mind down. It's funny how my life now is a stark contrast to the chaos that I felt in my past.I am glad to work at this place.My days were spent amidst rows of books, helping visitors find their literary treasures. The feeling of a book in my hands, its pages filled wi

My heart raced as I returned from the serene garden playing with my kids.This gives me eternal peace and happiness, a place where I had often sought solace and tranquility. Today, however, the calmness I had experienced outdoors did not retain when I arrived home.There was a fear that gripped me upon entering our apartment building. I could scarcely breathe, as the sight of multiple luxurious cars that were parked right in front of my apartment met my eyes.I fought so hard to maintain my expressions in front of Emma and Aida.Luxurious cars lined the otherwise quiet street, a dangerous reminder of a world I had hoped to leave behind.Fear, took over me, my face turned a little pale, but I tried my best to maintain a straight face. The fear of Adriano's potential return or the intrusion of some distant relative from his shadowy past threatened to take over my mind.He is dead. Adriano, his cousins and his uncles are dead. I tried to remind myself about this again and again.Runnin
