THE MAFIA'S BRIDE

CHAPTER 4

Despite her best efforts, Alicia never managed to see her husband. He was always too busy, always away on business. She started to feel like a prisoner in her own home, trapped by the secrets and the lies. She knew she had to do something, but she didn't know what. She felt like she was going crazy, like she was losing her mind. Until one day, she got a call. It was her husband, and he sounded urgent. She knew something was wrong.

"I need to see you," her husband said, his voice sounding strained. "It's important. I need to tell you something." Alicia was wary, but she agreed to meet him. She went to the place he told her to go, her heart pounding in her chest. When she arrived, she saw him standing there, looking pale and worried. she could feel him trembling. "What's wrong?" she asked, her voice shaking. He hesitated, and then he spoke. "I'm leaving," he said. "I have to go for an urgent business meeting , it may take months ,but I will be back ,everything you need is in the house .

the maids will see to your upkeep ,he gave her a matter black card ,use this to take care of yourself ,there is enough dollars to take care of you till I return ,without waiting for her to say a word ,he left the house .

Alicia stood there trying to ask herslef what just happened,and how she got herself into this mess,the money she wanted for her family ,they now have it ,at the expense of her happiness ,with tears gushing down her cheeks ,she went back to the masters bedroom shutting the door ,and crying herself to sleep .

As Alicia woke up , trying to process what had just happened, she started to realize something. Her husband had never really loved her. He had only been using her for his own purposes, and now he was leaving her behind. She felt foolish for ever believing him, for ever thinking that they had something real. And then, a thought occurred to her. What if she didn't have to stay trapped in this life? What if she could escape, and start over? Could she finally find the freedom she had always longed for?

As she thought about her situation, she realized that her husband had been very clever. He had surrounded her with bodyguards, and they were always watching her. It was like she was living in a prison, with no way to escape. But then, an idea began to form in her mind. If she could find a way to outwit the bodyguards, she could finally be free. But how? She would have to be clever, and she would have to take a risk. She knew it would be dangerous, but she was desperate. She was willing to do whatever it took.

it's been 5 months since Vincenzo the Mafia lord left his wife Alicia to the big house alone

Alicia was now used to being alone ,going to shop for new dress ,going to well known parties of the rich world ,but then she longed for a live she knew she will never have .

still thinking how she will cope with her marriage,it's 5 months and she haven't received a call from her husband ,and know his whereabout .

Alicia sat down in her masters bedroom adding a finishing touch of her makeup to her face when her maid brought her phone ,she had a phone call , it was from the family doctor , she was needed at the hospital.

Alicia got to the hospital,and was led to the family doctors office ,and he welcomed her .

welcome Mrs vicenzo you're welcome do have a sit, Alicia sat down .

doctor aulgera cleared his throat and said , "we kept an important information away from you "

"Mr vicenzo WA involved in an accident 3 months ago on his way back from the business meeting he told you about

he has been receiving treatment all this while ,and he asked us not to involve you into it as he does not want a pity party "

"he needs to be discharged but we will keep an eye on him ,but I am afraid ,he can not do so many things himself for the time being it may take weeks or months but until then we urge you to take good care of him "

"I will come home every single day to check how he's doing "

Alicia sat down without saying anything , confused ,and shocked ,how can her life change like this , who did she offend , who did she wrong ....

When Alicia brought her husband home from the hospital, it was a difficult and awkward transition. She had to help him with everything, from using the bathroom to eating meals.

At first, he was resistant and embarrassed, but over time he began to trust her. And as he did, something strange started to happen. They began to have conversations, real conversations. For the first time, they were truly connecting. She was surprised to find that she was enjoying his company. She felt a strange bond forming between them, something she had never expected.

Despite the strange connection she felt to her husband, Alicia never forgot who he was. He was still a dangerous man, with dangerous connections. She knew she had to be careful, that one wrong move could put her in danger. But she couldn't help but feel a spark of hope, a tiny flicker that maybe things could be different. Maybe, just maybe, they could start over. She knew it was foolish to believe this, but she couldn't help it. She wanted to believe that there was a chance for a better future, for both of them.

Even though Alicia found herself enjoying her conversations with her husband, she knew that there was no real bond between them. It was just a small connection, a momentary spark of understanding. It was not enough to erase the past, or to change who he was. He was still the same dangerous man he had always been, and she knew that she could never truly trust him. But she found herself unable to resist the draw of that brief moment of connection. It was like a light in the darkness, a tiny beacon of hope.
