Adara
I froze when I heard his demand. Children? He wanted me to have his children. What kind of sick and twisted shit was this.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7PaFC4Vvu
"That's a hard no for me. Nope. I refuse. I'm pretty sure you already have a child somewhere in this country with all the women you fuck. Go and find them."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E70Dff1g3
"I'm not taking no for an answer. Think about it. You could finally have the life you've always wanted, away from your parents, free to do whatever you please. All you have to do is give me a child. Simple."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvzMqAlREp
"Having a child is easier said than done. Even if I wanted a child, there is no way I'm having it with you."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueLqKCDKD8
"Why not? Do you have a boyfriend?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpgXjTu75z
"No."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH88KGvD89
"Husband?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHsMRcSCWZ
"No."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHInOrj4KBL
"Girlfriend?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzel6O97ZfF
"No. And no wife either so stop asking."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3a2vNCpGU
"See, I see no problem with having a child."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7muUOtIld7
"Says the one who won't be carrying it around for nine months."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2ooGMvJEK
"I might not be carrying it but I'll still be there, every step of the way."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kmchE7i7l
"Wow, that helps a lot," I say rolling my eyes. "I'm not changing my mind. I'll live with you. But only because I want my freedom from my home. I'm not having a child with you. You can barely even take care of others, and I don't like you.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkerAuRVXfV
"I take care of a lot of people. And I can take care of you. But you won't let me fiore." he says as he places his hand on top of my left thigh.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKOdQK364B
"Don't fucking touch me," I say as I push his hands away.
He doesn't reply to me but he listens for once. The rest of the ride was filled with awkward silence. I thought of Melanie, wherever she was, if she was safe, if she was happy. And I thought of Jaxen and the time I've spent with him. Even if it was only one day. It's the most fun I've ever had in a long time.

"We're here," he states as he wakes me up. I slightly jerk away from him and he gives me a concerned look. I pretend that I didn't see it and step out of the car.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEbT2UUwVY
"You don't need to come inside. I got it from here."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ3hbd3Hsn
Even as I say that, I feel his presence that my side immediately. I roll my eyes but continue to walk up to the house. I fiercely knock on the door which was quickly opened by one of my mother's servants, Diego. He looks at me with wide eyes.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FHZKpjsZC
"Madam! She's here!" he yells out.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAuHcxagdF
I give him a warning glare and he quickly shuts up. I walk right inside where I'm met with an angry expression on my mother's face as she rushes to the foyer. 261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafQqgLBGCl
"You little-"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIZCesQZNQ
"Let me stop you right there Vittoria, I suggest you watch how you're talking to my wife before you continue your sentence." Rey interrupts from behind me.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCzmzbrX0m
"I don't need your help," I whisper to him without moving my gaze. " Don't mind him. You little what? Finish the sentence mother."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwtNeibIVb
"You ought to listen to your husband you know, how could you run away?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3XDCRC2a5
"Have you ever considered that I didn't want to be sold off to another person as a wife? Never mind. Don't answer that, because I'm done. Ho chiuso con te, ho chiuso con questa famiglia. Matter of fact, thank you. Thank you for finally throwing me off the edge because now, I don't ever have to see you, or dad's face again and I no longer have to show any of you respect. I have more respect for the servants you claim to be under your feet."
"What is all the commotion!" my father says as he enters the room. "Oh!" he says as he blinks twice at me.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQiafWJATL
"Oh is right." I glare at him.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfVsmWI0mk
"I see you've found her Rey. I told you I wasn't hiding her from you."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBI0bwv5Ii
"Of course, you wouldn't hide me from him because you're a sadistic, manipulative, bugiardo, who does nothing but sit on his ass and have other people kill for money."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ENzkiDfag
"Watch your tone young lady, I am still your father."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhAOVhEqSe
"No. You're not. You lost that title the moment you decided to sell me, which was apparently years ago."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6oSqIEgs6
"Honey-"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8nHmjicDd
"No!" I shake my head. "Diego, where is Melanie?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSGpyaaOGb
He stays quiet. But the look in his eyes says he knows.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gMLlF1QVT
"Diego. You have five seconds to tell me where she is."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0undYeTC6
"S-she's in the basement. Locked up," he whispers under his breath.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSz9cobK5z
"Go get her. Now please."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPv2DWWtWr
He rushes to the basement and I look back at Vittoria and Vincenzo.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sj0VXuJTi
"Hmph, you two have got to be the worse parents in history, I hope you can live with that on your shoulders."
There was silence from the both of them. When I hear the door of the basement open, I gasp as I spot Melanie's form. I rush to her side and place her face in between my hands.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2KbHTHxid
"Mel, did they do this to you?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTIL4wewfb
She slowly nods and I hug her tightly. I help Melanie hold herself up, and I walk her over to the door. I stare back at my parents and smile. It wasn't a happy one. My smile was hiding all the rage I felt inside for them.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxV8GWEazL
"I hope we never cross paths again," I state before I open the door to leave.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEcOnYgn5n
"Oh, and one more thing. Diego, why don't you tell Vincenzo how long you've been sleeping with my mother? Don't look so appalled dad! You've been sleeping with Piera for just as long. Okay bye now, have fun fixing this mess. Tell me when the baby gets here, if you decide to have it!"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsHfRkxvfo
261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzjtnm7wia
Melanie stifles a laugh and we leave the house.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bunzNll62
"You are one badass woman my dear," she grins.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls2gfgjJiA
"I'm just simply saying what I've wanted to say for years." I shrug as I help her in the backseat of the car.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtgI3yusJM
"How did you even find out?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2PqImIrbD
"I saw Vincenzo with Piera one night about two years ago when we hosted that party for Vittoria's birthday and while I went to look for her, I saw her with Diego. It was quite funny actually. And recently, I went into her room and found a positive pregnancy test last week."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyvASwwUsa
"Oh the scandal," she laughs.
I look to Rey and our eyes meet.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcD3mghzRH
"You've been quiet."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzxydQpZQv
"If I were a regular man, I'd fear you."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4CWrgWCFz
"Ha! Why? Because I speak my mind?"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeyIZsyGGm
"Listen, not a lot of women handle situations like this,"261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEdiWNDV5l
"Well I just did, so you should be scared of me."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWrQxHpsqE
"Too bad, I'm not a regular man fiore," he smiles as he pulls out of the driveway.261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpVzDtFqvj
"I told you not to call me that."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRn8qUUy7s
"I'll call you whatever I want to."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7jfNvjox2
"We'll see about that."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yNIrzuB8a
"I guess we will. Fiore."261Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJSfgETUyP
