Chapter Eight
Adrian
She had so many questions for me last night, like who was in the other car? Why was I shooting a gun? What do I do for a living?
And I answered none of them because I wanted her to marry me first. I want her to be stuck with the fact that sheâs my wife and canât go anywhere because sheâs mine.
When I wouldnât tell her anything, she slammed the bedroom door in my face, and once again, I spent the night outside my own bedroom.
Itâs fine because while she slept, I made the necessary calls to make sure the wedding happens today.
Her dress is here. The gardens are prepared. The caterers have arrived.
And the guests will be here in a few hours.
âIs Daphne getting ready?â My father asks, standing in the doorway of my brotherâs bedroom.
âNo, because Iâm not marrying her today,â I say, staring at my reflection in the mirror as I make sure the bowtie to my tux is perfect. âIâm marrying someone else. Someone who I care about immensely.â
âI donât care. As long as you marry, Iâm happy.â
âI donâtââ My brother nudges me in the side, and I silence him. âDo we have extra security around the house? After what happened yesterday with the Angelinis, I wonât risk Mableâs safety.â
âMable. Thatâs a pretty name. Where did you meet her?â
âMable is the daughter of Mr. Porter, remember? Or did you forget?â
âMable Porter is the woman youâre marrying?â he bellows. âAre you out of your fucking mind? Does she know what happened all those years ago?â
âNo, she doesnât remember. Ever since I pulled her from that vehicle, I knew she was meant to be mine. No one will tell her what happened. Do I make myself clear?â
âYou canât be serious.â I donât think Iâve ever seen my fatherâs face so red. âWhat if she remembers? What then?â
âThen Iâll deal with it. I marry her, or I donât marry at all; whatâs your choice of poison?â
He marches away, furious at me for marrying the daughter he let survive. Itâs his fault if he is looking for blame. If I had never pulled her from that car, I would never have known what it was like to look heaven in the eyes or feel her skin against mine.
Itâs how I knew she was meant for me.
âIs she getting ready?â Otello asks, taking a shot of whiskey. âDamn, thatâs strong. Want one? To ease the nerves.â
âIâm not nervous,â I say honestly, looking into the mirror again and feeling peace for the first time in ages. âIâm finally doing what Iâve wanted to do. After today, Iâll have the one thing Iâve always wanted in the world.â I pull out the ring I have in my pocket and open the velvet box.
A teardrop five-carat diamond sits in the middle of a white gold band, and on either side are lines of more diamonds, but what she doesnât know is that, infused with the band, I had pieces of metal from the day her parents died, melted with the white gold.
