Vanessa Marano Relationships Novels & Stories

Neither of them could leave me alone for a moment. I opened Vanessa’s message first. As expected, it was dripping with venom. She accused me of not telling her Dominic was married and declared that it didn’t matter. She’d become a Graham one way or another. After all, she claimed, I’d ruined my marriage to Alex, so she’d do the same to Dominic. I rolled my eyes, calling her crazy in my mind. Dominic wouldn’t tolerate Vanessa’s antics for a second, especially if she targeted Faith or the baby. Faith had Dominic’s unwavering support—something I’d never had from Alex.

The one dancing locked lips with Wayne, and he reciprocated immediately, almost having his way with her there on the couch. “Just get a room already and stop this shit here.” Elvira lashed out loudly. Her nose scrunched up as she glanced at the men on the same couch with her, staring at the both of them with a disgusted look. Wayne disengaged from the kiss and gazed at her with a light chuckle. “I bet you wouldn't be saying that if Ace was here.” “Just because he isn't here with us, she feels like a saint.” Kelvin smirked from the edge of the couch, where he was sitting.

"Magnus... I am Vanessa Alejandra Cartagena, daughter of Catriona Cartagena, who was your Uncle Max's second wife. I lied to you; I wasn't lost on the ship; it was all a setup. Since I was a child, my parents trained me to be an agent, a skilled assassin. I knew our plan at that time; they wanted me to be on that ship. I knew who I was meant to go through, the family I was supposed to belong to, and that was the Shaw family. My parents wanted them to suffer. You’re not the only one with a grudge against that family, but as I grew older, I realized I had come to care for them, for my brothers, not until they arranged for me to be with you, Daviro, one of the known enemies of the Shaws. I know

Vanessa scoffed loudly. “She’s manipulating all of you!” “No,” I snapped sharply, finally turning toward her. “You manipulated people.” The arena went quiet again. I took one step toward her. “You lied to your own best friend.” Another step. “You destroyed my marriage.” Another. “And now you’re standing in this arena pretending you care about laws?” Vanessa’s expression twisted instantly. “You should’ve stayed discarded where Mike left you.” The cruelty of the words sliced deep. But not deep enough anymore. Because for the first time…

Now that Rosetta was stable, I could finally go back and smooth things over with Cecilia. But one day passed. Then two. Then three. Every time I called, her phone was off. Every text I sent went unanswered. That was when the first real spark of panic flared in my gut. I tracked down the manager of the wedding planning firm. "Ms. Marino? She canceled the contract," the manager said, looking at me with genuine shock. "She told us there was no need to prepare for a 52nd wedding." "When?" I demanded. "The day of your 51st wedding. Right after you walked out. She left us with a message—"

He speaks English, the Greek god speak English. “I'm really sorry, but I was not checking you out in anyway” I quickly composed myself and internally hit my head on an invisible wall so I’ll die to avoid this embarrassment. “It's written all over your face” I just embarrassed myself. “Im Michael and you are?” He stretched his hand out for a handshake and I quickly took it “I'm Vanessa” I replied “I know you're Vanessa Decruz, fiancee of the great one and only Arab prince, Richard Amaan”

muttered the buzzed woman suddenly. “Please don't” I laughed “I want to outlive your husband”. “My husband doesn't care about anything I do, I could fuck you right now and he wouldn't do anything”. I felt a fire sweep through my body as she said that, but I chose to keep silent. The rest of the trip was filled with Vanessa complaining about her unhappy marriage until we arrived at the house. I loaded her out of the car and carried her to her front door. “I have to drop you off here,” I told her, once we were both at the door.

He raised his hands up in surrender. She didn't know me well enough to say that and Vanessa never told her about the contract. She was just giving herself false hope about the whole situation. Because I was going to stay down if I knew the marriage would last, I couldn't even touch another woman without feeling like I had worms walking on my skin, without feeling disgusted. "Vanessa wouldn't date her," I said plainly. Ronald rose his eyebrows at me asking the question "Why" silently. Vanessa wasn't inlove with her and just loved her like a best friend, she would probably remain single after the contract ended and have casual sex.

she said stunned "you stole my man from me, Ryan was my boyfriend before you came" she was bewildered, "I don't understand you, do you know what you are saying" "yes, we were dating before he breaks up with me one day telling me he was getting married" "How does that involve me, " "you got married to him, that is how you are involved" she pushed him back "Vivian, I don't care if you have dated my husband before, he is mine now," she told her and walked out of her when she went to to the rest of them, Bella and Tyler were already seated, she smiled at her "you left the office before me but I got here before you" she smirked at the both of them

There was no doubt that those two were in a relationship. Then, it hit me. Could it be that Vanessa was Marlik's newfound love- the said Ravyna's daughter?
