Chapter 35

Aliyana A message pings on my phone and I slip it out as I poke my finger on the elevator button. Marco: In one month from now you will marry me, Aliyana. I suggest you use that time to get used to the idea. I want to walk back there and punch his face. But I don't. My father's words ring in my ears. I know the extent of his crimes, and I know I am overpowered. In one months', time I would marry Marco Catelli. Xander and Salvatore come to fetch me, my father must have told him where I am. I jump into the Bentley, my heart racing at how my life has turned. I am cursed, because I committed a sin the day my lips touched Marco Catelli, and I dug it deeper when I walked into that library and gave him my body, only to leave when I did. A man I once loved. We both did. "We need to meet with Aleksie tonight," Salvatore says from the front. "Is that pair of clothes still in the boot?" "Yes Miss Capello." I take in the City lights and I watch the people walk by, doing their thing, clueless of the bloodshed that will soon be spilled. Today my father sold me to my enemy. Soon I will have to marry him. Marco Catelli was once the man I loved, but he took from me, time and time again. He hurt me. So, it is only fair I take from him too. An eye for an eye. I killed Camilla Moretti and I don't regret a thing.
