Biting The Bullet

ARYAN "Uh, now that I can't do." I smirked, lifting the picture of my future wife. Wife. I cringed at that word. I would'nt dare deny that she was attractive. But I would need more than those damn enticing dark blue eyes, dark black sex hair and a heart dropping smile. MEERA "Arranged marriages are so sick. How can you get married to a guy you have never me before? For all I know he could look like a military horse." I snickered at my thoughts.

I fell for Don Lorenzo Moretti the second I saw him. Hard. As a mafia princess, I wasn't supposed to chase anyone. But for him, I swallowed my pride and made him my mission. A year later, he finally had me, pinning me to the bed as he moved inside me. His eyes were pure fire, and in that mo ment, they saw only me. For ten years, we were electric. We fucked in five-star hotels all over the world. We just fit. I was his lucky charm at the poker table. I took shots for him until I bled from my stomach. I even took a bullet for him. Then came our engagement party. Lorenzo left me standing there alone. Said something "came up." I went back to our apartment, only to find him kissing my stepsister, Juliana. That’s when I knew. He had always loved her. I was just a stand-in. He tried to explain, words tumbling out in a panicked rush, promising a bigger, better party to make up for it. A laugh, cold and hollow, died in my throat. I turned my back on him, pulled out my phone, and called my mother in Sicily. "I'll marry into the Romano family."

After she laid unconscious on Zach's cold body, she unpredictably once had this strange dream. A man who sends her a message that is not legible, but surely giving clue about Zach. The context that's not written in the alphabet made her even more confused. As the words started to fly around her head; full of questions with lack of answers. She began to be curious not just about what the letter says but also about herself. It feels strange, but not. It feels like she just lost someone who's exceptional to her. She's grieving and finding the love of a father, the care of a brother, and the unending worry of a mother. Her true identity begun to hunt her, a true identity that she didn't know it's existing. With emptiness and the feeling of melancholy in her heart, one day, she woke up in a different room surrounded by white walls, quiet hallways, chemical scented places, life monitors, ventilators, and people who are shouting and yelling for help to save and revive their love ones. Knees bent down on the floor, tears falling to their cheeks while both hands are clasps, begging for help. What will happen to her after losing the man she loves? What will happen after knowing the truth? Will she still be able to accept it, or throw it away? Will she still be able to forgive who betrayed her, for the second time, or will she picks to understand again its reason?

Nikita Pierrat a fait une fausse couche et a perdu l'enfant qu'elle attendait de son mari, Lucrèce Castex. Elle l'avait aimé pendant dix ans, avait abandonné ses études en deuxième année d'université pour l'épouser, et pendant trois ans de mariage, s'était dévouée sans compter. Jusqu'au jour où la découverte d'un document caché lui a révélé qu'elle n'avait été qu'un obstacle dans la relation entre cet homme et son premier amour. Dans la chambre d'hôpital, apprenant que les deux étaient partis pêcher en mer, Nikita a demandé le divorce. L'ancienne femme au foyer que tout le monde méprisait s'est alors métamorphosée : elle est devenue la maître designer d'une maison de joaillerie de luxe, l'unique enseignante d'un pianiste virtuose acclamé dans le monde entier, la déesse des circuits automobiles, la fille du ministre des Affaires étrangères, et la PDG d'une entreprise valorisée en bourse valant des milliards… Alors que les prétendants autour de Nikita se multipliaient, Lucrèce a commencé à s'accrocher à elle sans relâche. Excédée, Nikita a simulé sa propre mort pour lui échapper. Nuit après nuit, Lucrèce a veillé seul devant sa tombe vide, jusqu'à s'en user les genoux à force d'agenouillements. Jusqu'au jour où il a croisé par hasard son ex-femme « ressuscitée », les yeux rougis par l'émotion. « Chérie, recommençons, je t'en supplie… », a-t-il murmuré, éperdu. Nikita a souri, distante : « Attention à tes paroles. Dois-je te rappeler que nous sommes déjà divorcés ? »

Colter Giordano, my fiancé of six years, heir to the Giordano family, took a bullet for a dancer named Mia. He didn't take one for me. A bullet tore through my shoulder. Blood bloomed across my dress, hot and sticky. But my heart hurt worse. He asked if I was okay. Just once. Then he rushed Mia to the hospital, leaving me bleeding on the floor. The next day, Mia's picture popped up on my Instagram feed. There she was, in a luxury hospital suite. Colter was fussing over a scratch on her arm that was barely there. The caption was just two words: "My Hero." I liked the post. Then I made an encrypted call. "The Falcone family's offer," I said. "I'm taking it. Get me on a plane to Sicily. Three days."

"Don't judge my bangs. My mom made me do it." I say. "It's cute." He says, biting back a laugh. "Asshole." I murmur. "Wait... In the photo you're wearing..." He says trailing off. My eyes widen when I realize I'm wearing my bracelet in that picture. "I can explain." I say. <~~~~~~~~>
