JADE The sunset lamp in our room did little justice in shedding its light all over the dim room. But it was a good thing because Luciano would not be able to see my face and see how frustrated I am at this moment.Ever since our first encounter with the Valentinos, I have not been myself. Especially coming to learn that one of those sisters actually loves my husband and wants him for herself. She does not even care about being the second wife. All she is so concerned about is being Luciano's wife.I mean he is fucking married to me! Does she want to ruin our marraige to achieve this her aim?Why does it seem like the entire world is against my marraige?I did not even know want to marry Luciano in the first place but I was forced into marrying him and now it seems like the entire world just hates me for that.I had so many questions to ask Luciano concerning everything I overhead earlier.Valerie said Luciano was meant for her, does that mean they once dated or something? At tha
LUCIANO.The hell! Damien must be either drunk or he is just being plainly stupid, wicked and selfish. "Are you crazy Damien?!" I sprang up from my seat at once, my fists balling so tightly that I could feel the blood not flowing through my veins again."Now calm down Luciano. This is just another business. You need something that I can give you and I want something that you can give me" Damien smirked, drawing out white puff of smoke from the cigarette that twirled in between his fingers."How can you even suggest that? Are you sick? How can you suggest that I marry your sister?" I asked, my anger rising the more I played his unbelievable question in my head.The very thought of another man taking Jade away from me frightens me talkmore of me leaving her for another woman. I definitely can not and will do such. "I am not saying you should abandon your wife for my sister..." "That is how it sounds like to me" I sharply interrupted him.Damien sighed and dropped the cigarette he w
JADE The door to our bedroom was slowly pushed open, interrupting the silence of the atmosphere.Luciano walked in, his appearance gloomy but reserved. I sat up straight on the bed and pushed the duvet off my legs.I dropped the novel I was reading on the bed and scooted a bit for Luciano to take a seat."Luciano you came back quite early. I thought you would come back late" I smiled at him.His eyes drifted to the digital wall clock on the monochrome black coloured walls. It was one in the afternoon. "I guess I did. I just wanted to come spend time with you" Luciano simply replied, laying back on the bed.I wrapped an arm around his chest and stared at him, his icy blue orbs boring into mine. "At least you are beginning to enjoy me being around you" I teased him."I always enjoyed your company wife. I was just too busy to spend enough time with you back home" Luciano laughed, pulling me closer towards him.Our nose touched and our breathing mixed. "You smell so good Jade. I almost
JADEI strode determinedly towards the Valentino mansion, a look of frustration seizing my facial features.Luciano was not aware about my coming here. How could I tell him? He would ask me a million questions and when I finally divulge it to him on why I need to be here, he would probably try to dissuade me from stepping foot in this mansion.I made sure to leave immediately after he left for work. Fortunately for me, Luciano had gotten me a driver for my personal needs.I just made him promise me not to relay any of this to Luciano.After the discussion I had with Luciano yesterday about Damien's and Valerie's offer, I was taken by restlessness and anxiety.I could not concentrate on anything no matter how hard I tried to do so.I just had to do this and confront that woman. Probably she would listen to me woman to woman. Because what sort of entitlement did she have that she thought she deserved and could take away my husband from me?Isn't that absurd?There was no way I was going
JADEFIVE DAYS LATER "Must we really go for this event Luciano? Huh?" I mumbled watching Luciano get ready as he put on his Rolex wristwatch.Apparently, the Valentino's had invited us to a party of some sort days ago and Luciano insisted we attend.I do not want to go back into that mansion. Last time I was there, I had a fallout with Valerie and I do not even want to see her face ever again.I do not know how a woman can be so comfortable plotting the downfall of another woman's marriage!Luciano had a smirk on his face as he stood in front of the mirror, observing my annoyed features through the reflection.I dropped the pair of heels I was about putting on, irritated to even wear it."Luciano won't you even say something?" I snapped, standing up at once barefooted and coming to stand behind him.Taking a thin mouth comb, Luciano began combing down his hair slowly. "Jade you have asked me that question a million times and I keep on telling you that we have to attend it. What more
Luciano led the blonde lady to a room, yes Damien had specifically given them both a room in one of the many cozy little picturesque buildings inside the mansions vicinity. He was stressed as hell with everything going on. Luciano knew his half brothers were planning something new, probably an uprising within his mafia and he had to squash it fast.Coupled with the fact that he had gotten tons of report concerning the goods being hijacked or either confiscated by the secular authorities.Everything made a bomb explode in his head whenever he thought of it and he felt like just going on a shooting spree.He was trying so hard to suppress his urge to just fucking kill everyone. After all, it wouldn't solve any thing.He had not had sex for a really long time now. And Jade did not seem like she was going to consummate their marriage any time soon.He could just forcefully have his way with her, she was small and petite in his arms.But it would kill their already blossoming relations
JADE My eyes fluttered open as I slowly stirred up from my slumber. The bright rays of the sun filtered in through the satin curtain of the room, feeling the room with their warmth. I yawned lazily and my eyes wandered down to the pillow I had laid on. I had cried myself to sleep last night.Luciano completely ignored me and went with another woman to have fun in God knows where.I doubt he came back home last night.He must be really enjoying himself.He did not even have the decency to ask one of his men to take me back home. Worst of all my feelings weren't even considered at all. Is that how much I mean to him?A migraine throbbed at the back of my head like a construction site was undergoing work on my head. Sitting on my bed and sulking all day won't help me in any way.I need to do something with my day at least so I can forget about all these. If Luciano does not mind unwinding himself by hanging out with another woman apart from me then I should probably do the same.I curs
JADEMOMENTS AGO"Follow that car. Don't stop" I instructed the driver as we tracked down Luciano's black sedan that drove far ahead of us. Luciano had no clue I was following him. After the heated conversation we had earlier this morning, I had expected him to stay back with me and at least offer me his company.That was probably the least he could do to make up for the rubbish he did in that power crazy don's party wasn't it?But he just zoomed off. And to God knows where.When Elizabeth informed me of his departure, there was no way I could sit and fold my hands whilst watching Luciano dance to the tunes of Damien and his selfish sister.I had to do something. I had to stop him before he consented to another of Damien's crazy ideas. And one way I could do that was by for staters, track down his location and follow him to wherever he was going to. I had a feeling he was going back to the Valentino mansion.And unfortunately I was not wrong either.I watched Luciano's car drive i
