GRACE

” I DON’T LOVE YOU M@ssIMO !” I said immediately as I stared at him with disgust.

” You love me Grace ,I know you do ,you’re just saying this because you’re mad at me ,I know you have every right to be mad at me Baby ” he trailed as he moved close .

” I said don’t touch me max Please ! I fired at him as I cried .

” Just let me go already ! ”

” I can’t dont you get it ? Do you wanna die Grace ? I have lots of enemies who would do anything to make sure they bring down our family ….you are my Wife and that puts your life in danger ” he said Sadly .

” Danger ? M@ssimo please save it I’ve been in danger ever since I met you …Right now I don’t know what to feel anymore ….I just want to feel numb cause this pain might just kill me …..I swear ….” I said as I cried bitterly.

” I’m not letting you go Grace ….! ” He said and I knew he meant it .

” I’d leave this place M@ssimo …I don’t want to see your face “‘ I said and he pulled me into his arms as I cried bitterly .

Being in his arms was just hurting me more than anything else. .. the break up I had with George didn’t hurt as what M@ssimo had just done .

This hurt way too much …

” Please” he whispered softly but tears just kept rolling out of my eyes .

My throat felt soar from all the crying and at that point I stopped fighting it .

But I’d already made my Decision to leave M@ssimo and no one would stop me , not even M@ssimo .

I avoided him throughout the evening and when he brought me dinner ,I pushed the tray off immediately .

I stormed into the bathroom and took my bath ..I washed my hands after changing into my nightwear and that’s when I felt the urge to throw up .

I tried to control it but threw up into the sink immediately .

It got worse as I puked badly , I splashed water on my face and sighed .

It must be because of the stress ,I concluded as I went back Into the room , M@ssimo was in clad in his Nightwear.

I picked my pillow and he stared at me .

” Grace where are you going ? He asked worriedly.

” It’s non of your business ” I snapped Angrily and he sighed .

” Don’t go outside ….if you don’t want me in the room ,I’d live I promise ” he said and wore his room sl!ppers .

” Good night” he said and klzzed my forehead as I looked away .

Immediately he left the room the urge to throw up came again .

I ran into the bathroom and threw up badly .

What’s wrong with me ? .. immediately I came back to the room and lay on the bed .

I hugged my pillow close as everything that happened earlier came rushing in my mind …I covered my mouth as I cried bitterly .

I couldn’t sleep ,I kept tossing and turning on the bed and eventually sat up .

My mind went Back to the time I first met M@ssimo and everything we’ve been through together and I cried all over again.

I can’t believe I loved a man that saw me as bait to get what he wanted .

” Why M@ssimo …why did you do this to me ! I asked as my voice shook with hurt .

” I love you so much ” I sniffed and immediately my eyes met the Diary again I remembered Lucia’s words .

I wish M@ssimo told me everything from the beginning ….he should have told me I was nothing to him from the beginning hearing it from Lucia and Gina has torn me beyond repair ,I wasn’t sure I would find it in my heart to forgive him anytime soon because at this point I Hated the fact that I could kill him if giving the opportunity.

I felt used Because no matter how I wanted the feelings to live they where just too strong .

I opened the Diary and as I read each word …tears rolled out of my eyes .

Mom sold me off to the De LUCA’s and M@ssimo was a part of it from the beginning ,he didn’t just need an heir ….he just didn’t want to loose at the end ….

I felt disgusted that the man I loved and my own mother did this to me …

I read everything about mom in the Diary , how she was so close to her sister …they loved each other a lot … Mikhail came in between them .

She fell inlove with her sisters husband Who also had a son with him already.

She was sleeping with him and got pregnant the same time her sister did … things got worse when her sister found out about the affair .

She claimed they loved each other before Mikhail and Luda got married .

Ivan and Gina where luda’s children yet Mikhail loved me …

She took me away…from my father because he wanted to end everything and take custody of me .

Arcording to what she wrote on the Diary …she wanted to kill me and Luda also wanted my end in other to secure her children’s place .

She eventually let me live Because of her business ,she wanted someone to take over and when I refused to take over the Business she Disowned me .

She knew Sergio mistook me for Gina and eventually sold me off to the Deluca’s .

I stopped reading the Diary and eventually slept ontop of it with tears rolling out of my eyes .

It hurt too much that everyone in my life wanted me for their selfish reasons .

M@ssIMO

” Hey Bro how is she ? Kristov asked immediately I walked out of the room.

” Grace Does not want to see me man I mean she doesn’t even wanna stay in the same room as me …I just ” I trailed as it hurt .

” Man what We Did Definitely hurt a lot ..” Sergio said and Rico was Quiet the whole time.

” Have you guys heard from Emelio ? I asked as I sat down .

” No He’s Avoiding home due to his fight with Dad I mean it was ins£nsitive of father to have brought her up knowing it’s a s£nsitive topic for him ” Sergio said and I just looked away tiredly.

” Gina Lucia and that Diary just ruined everything for me ,I can’t loose Grace , I swear if I get my hands on Mikhail I’d k*ll him with my barehands ” I said Angrily .

” He’s your wife’s father which makes him your father in-law ” kristov teased and i glared at him .

” Mikhail has done more harm to us than good , we tried being in peace with him but no , first he’s the reason for Emelio’s sadness Back then him and that jerk he calls a son … Then he’s never been Trust worthy when it comes to business he plays Dirty ! I said and Frederico sighed.

” What are you gonna do now ? Gina is here with us ” Kristov asked and I smirked .

” I’ve already hurt my wife and I don’t know what’s in store for the Both of us now …so I’m gonna play this game without fear of hurting Grace anymore ….and that includes using Gina” I said and they gave a nod .

” And Lucia ? He asked .

” Sell her off make sure it’s to a cruel Buyer…I’ve had Enough of her nons£nse already ” I said and they looked suprised since I don’t sell the escorts without their agreement .

But right now I’ve had Enough that wh*re.

The next morning I walked into our room and Grace wasn’t there .

I Walked out of the room and Bumped into her . She looked pale and tired .

” Babe ” I called but she walked p@ssed me .

” Let’s talk ”

” I’m not interested ” she said as she walked over to the bed and picked her bag .

” Grace …” I trailed.

” M@ssimo would you let this slide already ? Look I don’t want to know … Why are you hell bent on hurting me more than you’ve done already … ” She snapped as her voice shook .

” I’m sorry … And I’d keep saying it because I pulled you into this mess ” I said and watched her walk away from my sight.

I checked the Bed and saw her wedding ring on the Bed ..I walked close to it and picked it as I stared at it .

She gave up on us …

I removed the silver chain on my neck and put the ring on it before putting it on my neck .

” I’d fix this Bambi I promise ” I said as I stared into space .

” M@ssimo ” mom called immediately I walked out of our room .

” What ? I asked softly

” Come here my Boy ,Sergio told me you want to sell Lucia off ? Why ” she asked and I stared at her.

” Really ? That’s why you stopped me ? I asked annoyed .

” Son Lucia is a good girl ,she’s perfect for you I’m so glad we’re finally getting rid of mikhail’s Daughter’s at least you should have a wife after this whole fiasco ” she said and I glared at her .

” You want Lucia who’s slept with the whole mafia and had different motives to become the Donna ? What do you have against Grace ! I snapped angrily and she froze.

” You’re raising your Voice at me Because of a woman M@ssimo ?” She asked hurt .

” That woman is my wife mom …at least give her that respect ” I said and she cried Dramatically .

” You dare shout at your mother Because of a Barren woman who has done nothing but brought us trouble ! She screamed and I rubbed my face.

” Grace is not Barren mom ,where did you get that idea from ? We’ve been careful because she’s not ready ! I said and she stared at me shocked .

” You’re not ready or your wife is not ready ? Why should you wait for a woman to be ready before she gives you an heir ? She asked frowning.

” Escuse me mother” i said as I walked away from her ,I could hear her calling after me but I didn’t stop to listen to her nons£nse .

I can’t believe she thinks Grace is barren .
