Taken By The Mafia Lord

Chapter 684

684 Fight For Your Love

Marcel was gone from her life and Arianna missed him terribly, she guessed it’s true that you never know what you’ve got till it’s gone. There wasn’t a day gone by that she hadn’t thought about the many ways her relationship could have gone had she only told Marcel the truth about Elijah.

It might sound cheesy but the nights were cold without him by her side and the days felt meaningless. The food was tasteless and Arianna only took enough to keep her alive. But she might as well have taken nothing because she kept on losing weight instead.

It was just a week and she was a shell of herself. It sounded stupid but Arianna wondered if Marcel missed her as much as she missed him. Has he moved on already? Was there another woman already taking her place in his life?

Arianna tried to think that the affection Marcel had for her was strong enough. But what if he was trying to forget her by using another woman? The thought of another woman polluting the bed that had spent time together aggravated her.

She felt like dying. Arianna missed him so much that she felt like dying. Her heart hurt so much like someone was repeatedly stabbing her in the chest. She was so sorry for what she had done. Arianna didn’t mean to hurt Marcel that way, but it was too late for apologies. Not that he was even going to listen, she knew Marcel’s temper quite well.

Arianna wished that she could turn back the hands of the clock and rewind it to that moment before he left to rescue his sister. Then, she would have told him the truth even if he claimed otherwise, that way she would be able to avoid this unfortunate end. But then, wishes were not horses and there was no turning back the hands of time.

Unfortunately for Arianna, this was an outcome that she had to live with and so far she was not doing a good job at it. She had pushed everyone away and refused to see anyone. While she should be excited to finally meet her mother, she couldn’t help but blame her inwardly for taking her away from Marcel and leading to this.

And as for Elijah, all she had for him was a burning stream of anger. After what she had done for him, saved his ungrateful ass, this was how he had paid her back. She had told him from the start that she was happy with Marcel! She begged him that night not to take her and yet he did. She would end his pathetic life once she lays her eyes on him.

Hence, Arianna wallowed in her misery. It was not like she had anything to do anyway. Her life doesn’t make sense anymore; everything was turned upside down. Arianna had been planning a future with Marcel and now that it was over she didn’t know what to do anymore. People always said to pick up the pieces of one’s life after a heartbreak and move on, what if everything was in smithereens and there was nothing to fix?

.....

Arianna was startled when a knock came on the door and she turned to it with a glare. Natalie kidnapped her here, why can’t she respect her privacy as well?! She thought. Arianna didn’t want to see her face, not when she was filled with nothing but anger, regret, and bitterness. It was eating her up from the inside out.

Hence, she ignored the knock on the door until she heard a click as the knob was turned and Arianna sighed inwardly. The universe must be punishing her for what she did to Marcel.

Even though it was early morning, Arianna’s room was as dark as night because she closed the curtains to the point light couldn’t penetrate in and the light was turned off. The darkness was efficient for hiding away from everything and everyone.

“Ouch!”

Arianna was startled when she heard a younger voice and a crashing sound. What the hell?

She quickly hurried and pushed the curtain open, letting light come in, and was able to see who had intruded into her room, because whoever that is wasn’t her mother.

“You!” Her brows narrowed together, trying to understand what Eric’s daughter was doing in her room. She was kneeling on the floor and in front of her was ruined food and broken ceramics.

“What were you thinking coming inside here?” Arianna took her hand and pulled her up to her feet else she injured herself. She didn’t want Eric to think that she hurt his precious only child when she only stumbled upon something in the dark.

“I didn’t think that it was this dark.” She grinned at her showing off her missing upper teeth, “I was close to believing that my elder sister is a vampire.”

“Excuse me?” Her brows furrowed. What elder sister? Was the girl kidding her? Arianna had not exactly thought deeply about what her mother’s marriage to Eric would mean to her.

“Don’t worry, it would be cool if you were a vampire. Although I do worry about something, would I be like this when I get older?”

“Huh?” Arianna was more confused than ever.

“I know being in love is fun and all, but I don’t want to have heartbreak and be as miserable as you are right now.” She said,

Arianna’s lips pressed into a thin line as she stared at the young girl. She means, having a little girl point out her.... Just how old was the sassy brat?

“Are you done? You can leave now.” Arianna told her, pointing at the door.

“So you can go back to being pathetic?” She raised a brow at her.

“Jesus Christ and I thought I was a rude child growing up!” Arianna blinked, she couldn’t believe the audacity.

“My papa taught me to be a strong woman and if you want something badly, you fight for it! Do not stay cooped up in your room all day and wait for a miracle to happen. I say you fight for your love!” Rose motivated her.

And the next minute, the door was closed on her face.
