Chapter Twenty-Three Engagement Party
"Tatianna, is everything alright?" Her beautiful face is now a ghostly shade of white. She hasn't said anything since I've made that toast. How stupid could I be? Why did I have to confess my love for her so soon? Yes, our relationship is oddly unusual, but I thought she felt the same way about me.
"I'm fine, Axon; I'm sorry you've just completely caught me off guard. I think I'm falling in love with you too."Tatianna says while looking at me, her blue eyes gleaming in the moonlight.
Letting out a breath I wasn't even aware I was holding, I grab her and hold her in my arms.
While I kiss her forehead, she softly whispers, "but I'm scared."
I don't think she's even aware she's voiced her fears. So I let her spoken words go unnoticed. I'm scared too, Tatianna. You have no idea how scared I am. The last woman I made my world wrecked it, leaving me a broken mess that no one has been able to fix, except for you.

"Are you?"Axon says as he stares directly at the trash where the pregnancy test lies.Staring at the toilet, wishing I weren't here, I avoid his gaze. I can't believe this is happening to me. Heck, I even laughed at my Mamma when she accused me of being pregnant. Stupid birth control. "Tati, please answer me; I'm not mad."Why can't he leave? Doesn't he sense how embarrassing this is? I still can't figure out why my birth controls failed me. Crap! Stupid antibiotic. I was sick right before we did the deed, so I had to take antibiotics. I forgot all about it canceling out my birth control. " Tati, please!" He begs me to look him in the eye.I shouldn't feel ashamed after all; we are getting married, but somehow this isn't at all how I envisioned my life to go. Finally, I say the words I've been too afraid to say. "Yes, Axon, I'm pregnant, and it's yours!" Biting my lip, I fina

The night air nips at my skin, chilling me to the bone. Looking around, I see a dark shadow standing in the field. The light of the moon cascades his face. He seems like a lost little boy. I'm starting to think his breakup wasn't as simple as Kate made it out to be. What do I know about Axon? Maybe we shouldn't get married.No, this is something I have to do for my father. His one last wish is to walk me down the aisle—the only reason he's held on this long. Tears graze my cheeks, and I'm not sure if it is because of Axon or the thought of losing my dad. My sobs becoming louder, startled, Axon turns towards me." Tati, why are you crying?" He wraps me into his arms, my tears soaking his shirt."It's okay, Tati, I'm here, I've got you, we'll get through this." He smooths out my hair, whispering consoling words.We stayed wrapped in each other's arms for what felt like hours; for the first time in my life, I felt safe, but most of all loved.

The Mafia's Princess Chapter Twenty-Six Saying Goodbye
Standing in my flowing, black dress, with mascara running down my face, I say goodbye to the only person who ever truly understood me. My heart is aching; I'm supposed to be strong for Mama; Lord knows she needs me to be strong. Instead, I stand at the side of my Papas grave looking like a lost little girl, looking for her favorite teddy bear. I thought I was ready for this, but nothing has truly prepared me for the loss I'm feeling. After saying goodbye to my Papa at my wedding, he passed peacefully in his sleep. In my heart, I knew he would. Axon slowly walks over to me and puts a hand on my shoulder; s

How did he get these?Each one like ripping off a band-aid."Mr. Blaze wanted for questioning in the disappearance of his wife."If Tatianna saw these articles, I'm not sure what would happen.

The Mafia's Princess Chapter Twenty-Eight Consider Them Dead
Time passes by like a pendulum swings. The guilt slowly fades away. I shouldn't feel guilty for something I didn't cause. Adriano was going too fast, causing the breaks to fail. At least that's what Mama called to say. It's just sad that his body couldn't be recovered from falling off of the cliff."Baby, I'm home!" I hear Axon call out.I holler back, "I'm in the bathtub."Shortly after, Axon comes strolling in, wearing a crooked grin. Bending down, he pecks my lips. " Hey Babe, I've missed you; room for one more?"Scooting forward to make room, bubbles slush back and forth. I smile and usher for Axon to join me. He undresses and sits behind me while wrapping his arms around me."How was your day, hun?"I ask with a half-grin.He lets out a loud sigh."Exhausting! How were yours and our little peanuts day?"He rubs my none existent tummy, making me feel warm all over.I bet Axons is going to be the best father. I let out a yawn.

"Benedetto"The name I detest comes out. I look up from my desk, agitation clearly on my face. That could only be one person who would dare call me by my given name, and as far as I'm concerned, he is dead to me."My name is Axon; speak now and get out!""Mio figlio è a posto per parlare con suo padre." His cold grey eyes bore into mine.(My son is too good to talk to his father)My voice is as cold as an ice storm; I mask all of my emotions. The worst thing I could do right now is to show my hand."I have no Father; he died the day I left home.""Benedetto, I see you've come accustomed to Americans way of living. Bravo on your million-dollar company. You've proved your point, now come home. You have a business to run."A lot can change a person in a few years. His once black hair now a peppered grey; he once was stalky now he's plump. But one thing has not changed his arrogance. He's still the same on the inside. His Appearance

Answering the phone, he hears the frantic voice of his most trusted man."He has her; the scum bag has her!" "Roberto, who has her? What are you talking about?" Confusion laced his voice.
