"He is here" I heard my sister say. At that moment I didn't know whether to feel happy,sad or angry.
Was I angry that my Papà did not hesitate to sell me to gain more power, or happy that he chose to sell me? After all staying with Dante couldn't be worse than staying here with them.
Of course that was a lie I chose to tell myself there was no way staying with Dante THE DEVIL of CARUSO VITALE Clan will be much better than staying with my family.
Yes staying here is no good but it is at least better than being with Dante. My father is as ruthless to me as always I expected nothing less.
"Lillith!" I heard my mom call from downstairs making me sigh before finally standing up from my bed.
I could only think of one thing as I headed for the door "Is this really the end for me?" .
My father Lucian Carrington Mafia boss of the DE LUCA Clan the second most feared Clan here in Italy especially here in CALABRIA (CANTANZORA— Capital city).
Some people even call it our city but its nothing compared to The CARUSO they run almost half of the regions in Italy including SICILIA (PALERMO—Capital city) which is like the main Base of Mafia Clans.
From what I heard his Mamma died after giving birth to him leaving his Papà to take care of him.
So when his father came to my father asking me to be betrothed to his son Dante just before he died and Dante took over. My did not even hesitate one bit and immediately agreed sealing my fate without even bothering to Inform me.
You can imagine how surprised i was when my Mamma came over to meet me two days ago telling me my soon to be husband will be coming to get me soon then left without even bothering to explain.
It was thanks to Melisa our head maid here In the Carrington villa who was kind enough to at least tell me what was going on.
Now here I am about to meet my so called Husband to be. Talk about a surprising turn of events.
"Finally, you are here. I was starting to think you ran away or something" I didn't even bother to reply my sister I just walked over before sitting down on the only empty couch in the sitting room.
"Lillith I thought I taught you better than to keep you fiancé waiting on you"
"I was getting ready" I replied not even bothering to spare my Mamma a glance.
After I was done speaking I turned to scan the room trying to find my fiancé and when I did I was beyond speechless.
Dante Vale THE DEVIL himself was here sitting just few meters away from me staring right at me my heart stuttered. Not because I was afraid...but because no one warned me THE DEVIL would be so beautiful.
I let my eyes wander a little finally falling on his long black jet hair which was packed in a low ponytail with only little strands falling on his face.
It perfectly matched the black suit he was currently wearing which by the way looked really good on him.
Finally my eyes fell on his lips those lips that were begging to be kissed.
I have only heard about his beauty but finally seeing it in person was another thing.
For a moment i was almost happy I was getting married to him.
Almost.
But as soon as those thoughts crept In i shoved it away.
This man right here was THE DEVIL. Gorgeous, yes. But still THE DEVIL.
"I see you are as beautiful as they said you were" his deep soothing voice rang in the now quiet room.
I almost lost my composure when I heard it not only was he so good looking he just had to have a voice that could kill too.
"You're drooling Amore Mio (My love)" he said chucking a little that was when I realised I have been staring at him mouth agape.
I immediately turned away from him shutting my mouth in the process to say I was embarrassed would be an understatement.
"I can see you are quite satisfied Mr Vale" My Papà said clearing the awkward atmosphere that was the only thing he has ever done for me that I was grateful for.
"To say i wasn't would be a lie but saying I am is still too much" he replied making me frown what was that even supposed to mean?
"Well now that this is over I will be taking my leave" he said standing up
"Of course I'm sure we have wasted too much of your time"
"Shall we Amore Mio?" He asked stretching his hands towards me I didn't even know when he walked up to me I just turned staring at him blankly for a while before accepting his hand.
"Don't worry yourself Lillith your things will be brought to you just relax and get ready for your marriage ceremony".
Before she was done speaking we were already out of the door but i heard everything clearly. Now that it was time for me to go she was acting like a mother.
Only both of us knew very well that It was all an act maybe I should be happy that I was finally leaving this so called house.
