BLOOD AND VOWS: THE MAFIA WRONG BRIDE 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 91 - 챕터 100

CHAPTER 92A GIRL WHO DOESN'T EXIST LUCIENIt was a week later before Marco came back. During that one week, everything felt like hell. I watched her act like the way Valentina would. Not that I’m saying she’s not Valentina, but it was like after we went to her home, something in her woke up. She still behaved like the woman who had arrived at my estate, but there were subtle differences now. Small adjustments that most people would ignore. I didn’t. Her clothing changed. She used to dress comfortably but now, it’s like every minute is a fashion runway for her. Her clothes, her hair, her body. God I missed holding her, touching her. Fucking her. But I couldn’t do any of that till I’m sure of who she is. My mind was in multiple places and I still found myself wanting to be wrong. That she was actually Valentina Rossi and not the twin, Chiara Rossi. Later that day, while going through some documents in the cargo shipments for the day, Marco walked holding some files and looking as p

CHAPTER 94THE WRONG PLACECHIARAEverything is so boring. I’ve been acting like Valentina so well this past few weeks and honestly, it has been so exhausting. I hated every second. I couldn’t visit the library like before, I had to start taking pictures of myself and change my clothes and everything was just…I stayed in my room, trying to be myself in the only place where no one would watch me. It’s actually supposed to be Lucien’s and I's room but he’s been so busy with whatever he’s doing that’s taking his time so this basically became my room. The book I was reading was starting to get too boring and I needed to do something to feel up about the empty was in my head. I needed some air so I decided to go out to the gardens. It was really amazing. The air outside is so clean and I was able to feel like myself even though I was still in my Valentina element. But the thing was, it felt like someone was watching me. I searched around me but there was nothing there. But I could still

CHAPTER 96THE WAITCHIARAI don’t think I’ve ever ran as fast as I did today. I don’t even know how I found my way out of the maze and back to my room. It’s funny how fear and adrenaline could make you do a lot of things you did not expect to do. As soon as I got to the room, I locked it. I knew Lucien had a key, but I needed time to think before he would come back.It wasn’t until I settled down that I knew I was crying. I was still resting behind the door. Slowly, I slid to the floor, sobbing heavily. Memories of what I saw came crashing back. I remember how battered the man had been. Bloodied, his face looking unrecognisable. The scary men in the room. And how Lucien, blinded by rage, swiftly stuck a knife into his skull, the sound of the skull cracking under the pressure of the knife and how he drank water, with his hand still bloody, like it was nothing.Don’t get me wrong, I knew what kind of man Lucien was. I knew the kind of things he did, but seeing it happen in real life w

CHAPTER 98THE MORNING AFTERCHIARAI won’t say that I slept. After all the emotional feelings we had with each other, he took me to bed. We didn’t kiss or have sex. We just went to bed to sleep. A few minutes later, he got a call about something urgent that had happened and he whispered to me that he had to. I don’t know if he did it to assure me or something but I didn’t feel it. Instead I kept wondering if he was going to kill another person. Sleep didn’t come easy either. Everytime I tried to sleep, I kept going back to that house behind the maze, to the moment I had seen Lucien plunging a knife into that man’s skull without any mercy. How he just drank the water that was handed over to him even with the blood still on his hands. No matter how many times I had to shake that image from my head, it was still there. When I managed to fall asleep again, I was back there again, but this time, I was the one sitting on the chair. “Did you really think I’ll forgive you for deceiving m

CHAPTER 100THE DEVIL OF MILANLUCIEN The drive to one of the branches was quiet. This was the first time I was going to this branch. It had just been formed recently and I put one of my most trusted people in charge of it. I was expecting everything to go well since he was one of my best strategists. I needed to expand the business more and Matteo was my best choice.When we got to the warehouse, it looked completely deserted, like no one was there. I was completely stunned. Something in the back of my mind kept saying that something was wrong and I always trusted my instincts. I tried searching memories for anything that might have given me any sign that this branch needed my attention but nothing came to mind. And it clicked. The fact that Matteo had not even reported about the welfare of the business seems to be what concerned me.I stepped down from the car and walked forward. Marco came to stand beside me. “Marco, when was the last time you heard from Matteo?” I asked. Marco l
