The Don's Desire

"Every damn thing in this life come with a price, Mia amata {My beloved}" he ran his fingertips on her cheek, his icy blue orbs peering into her own. "Your reasons why I'm being held captive here?" She inquired, her eyes holding nothing but fear in them. This wasn't the man she knew, this one is totally different - A Mafia "You left me at my worst, you ruined me. Now, it's my turn to do so, Mia amata" he said slowly, a cruel expression on his face. "I'm sorry…" a low whisper tore out of her lips but he let out a laughter, one which didn't seemed to reach his eyes. "It's too late… Too late, Mi amata" his voice rang back in her ears a million times and a tear slipped down her cheek. ••••••••• Adriana Regio never expected herself to fall into the hands of one of the most feared Mafia bosses in Italy - Don Riccardo Moretti. Mafia's were the top leading in wealth and everything. They were feared by all and peasants never wished to cross parts with them. That was Adrianna's case too. But, her case was entirely different in another way. She wasn't sold, bought or anything, but she was held captive to pay for a crime she committed years ago. A crime that haunted her every night, and even though she was held captive by the man she once loved, she couldn't bring herself to tell him a secret she harbored greatly in her heart. "He's our Daddy?" ~ Emeliano questioned. "Not exactly what I expected, he's not my spec" ~ Emelio retorted.

APOLOGIES

Adriana's head was bowed in embarrassment as she listened to the kids narrating everything she had told them about their Dad to him.

Years back, Emelio and Emiliano would bombard her with questions, asking why their Dad was never there with them. She was the busy type, managing her restaurant alone wasn't some easy task. Yet, she knew how her kids felt whenever their classmates told them stories about their Dad.

On a particular day, Emelio had asked her. "Mommy, don't we have a Daddy?" As much as his question sounded innocent, it broke Adriana's heart. It made her remember her first love, the one whom she had left shattered.

"Daddy?" She smiled. She gestured them to come closer and pulled them to her body. Slowly, she caressed their hair as she uttered words that relieved their minds.

"Do you want me to tell you a story about your Daddy?" She asked. They nodded simultaneously and she smiled.
