Chapter 8 

Luca’s POV 

I shouldn’t have rapped her like that she will never trust me know, never give herself to me willingly now. I have been in my office since I r***d her, drinking my sorrows. I may be a lot of things, I know I'm a monster but I have never forced a woman, I never needed too. I was just so angry I saw red, I had to let out the anger and unfortunately, I let it out at her. She upstairs picking out her wedding dress right now with the wedding planner and some dress maker she brought with her. I hope that she can at least enjoy this day somehow. Tomorrow we will be married in front of my family and closest friends. I know she’s not happy about it but I hope someday she will be happy here with me. I want to make her happy and give her the world.  

“Hey brother if you keep drinking your gonna look like s**t for your wedding tomorrow.” Marco says coming into my office. 

“Ya know most would knock before coming into someone's office” I reply 

“Yea well I'm not most people big brother” he says with a grin. 

“What do you want Marco?” 

“I came to bring you to your room. You need to get cleaned up and get some rest you look like s**t. When did you sleep last?” 

“I don’t know brother” 

“Well lets get you upstairs” 

“I think I can get myself upstairs Marco” I state 

“Well prove it then” 

I get up from my chair and stumble a bit but regain my footing quickly. 

“See i’m fine” 

“Si lascia andare Luca” (yea lets go Luca) 

“Cazzo sto arrivando” (I’m f*****g coming) I reply as he comes over to lend a shoulder. We head up the stairs to my room. 

“Ce l’ho fratello, Grazie” (I got it brother, Thanks) Marco turns around and leaves closing the door behind him. I take a quick shower and throw on some sweats before hoping into bed for the night. 

Aria’s POV 

I’m awoken by a knock at my door. 

“Good morning Aria, I have your breakfast Francesca will be here soon.” 

“Thanks Heidi come on in” I say as I sit up in bed. I climb out of bed and head into the bathroom to freshen up before having my breakfast. 

After eating my eggs and bacon I hop in the shower trying to keep a brave face on about this day. The day that ends the rest of my life. I’ll no longer be Aria Grace Baros. I sigh as I try to push the negative thoughts aside. I get out of the shower and grab a towel to dry off and one for my hair. I throw on my robe and head into my room to see Francesca and another women already there waiting for me. 

“Good morning Aria ready for the big day?” She asks 

“About a ready as I'll ever be” I say forcing a smile.  

“This is Alessia she will do your hair and makeup” 

I take a seat at the vanity and let Alessia get to work on my hair. I chose to have my hair mostly down only having some of it pulled back almost into a crown style on the back of my head with the rest of it curled perfectly. Alessia put some small white flowers in the braided crown part then moved onto my makeup. I asked to keep the makeup light and simple since I don’t wear much usually.  

Once she has finished I look at myself in the mirror, I look beautiful she did an amazing job. My eye shadow is a golden color and my lip stick a light pink. She applied some mascara to make my eye lashes look a little longer and some black eye liner. 

“It’s perfect thank you” 

“Your very welcome dear you look beautiful. Congratulations on the wedding I’ll leave you two to finish getting ready.” Alessia says before leaving the room. 

Francesca helps me with my dress and vail and before I know it it’s time to head out to the back yard for the ceremony. I wish I had my mom here for support, I feel so alone.  

“You look beautiful Aria” Heidi says with a smile on her face 

“Thanks Heidi” 

“Well miss Aria it’s time for me to go enjoy your special day” Francesca says giving me a hug. I don’t reply just give her a nervous smile as she leaves. 

“Aria are you aready?” 

“I don’t think I can do think Heidi” I reply with tears in my eyes.
