SARAH POV
They say "Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale." I smiled bitterly as the quote ran through my memory ...neither I had an ordinary life nor this is going to be a fairy tale .... This wasn't something I wanted ,infact , this was never the thing I wanted ...marrying someone whose name you didn't even know ... I always wanted to marry someone out of love not out of some rubbish stupid traditions of these mafia families.....yes mafia , the word that I despise the most , the word that I hate from every fiber of my body ..but unfortunately I am too a part of it ...
I am SARAH TREVISAN daughter of the italian mafia leader FRANCESCO TREVISAN ...I have a brother SANTINO TREVISAN who is 27 and is next in line to lead the italian mafia ...he is just like my dad brutish and vile when he is in his mafia mode...but he loves me more than anything , dad knew that if he stayed here he would never let him marry me against my wish , so he sent him to our private island fooling him that the FBI has grown suspicious of him ....
"mam please don't cry ,you'll ruin your makeup" the beautician pleaded that's when I realized I was crying and why wouldn't I , looking into the mirror there she was standing infront of me ...she was beautiful but I knew the truth she was nothing but an empty shell ...a puppet in the hands of her own father . it was me . I was helpless , I was weak , I would have ran a long time back if someone's life wasn't at stake because of me ... my heart felt heavy as I remembered the one whose name is carved on my heart , the only person I wished to spend my whole life with ,the one I wanted to belong to for the rest of my life , my love ADRIAN .. I kept my hand over my chest to soothe the sudden ache ... it's been a whole year, I have last seen him , last heard him ...I thought I'd be able to live with the fact that he is safe but I was so wrong ...even breathing without seeing him feels harder now ..how am I going to live this pathetic life anymore
"oh my god , bellissima , just like your mother ... " I heard my dad saying when his eyes fell on me , my mom passed away when I was 3 ..i mean she was murdered by some rival gang, my dad loved her so much that even after she died he never married again ...my brother always says that I look so much like my mother and just innocent like her that's why dad has been very over protective of me ...he home schooled me all my life and when it came to uni with the help of my brother I made it and that's the place I met ADRIAN , I smiled at the memory but it soon faded replaced by nothing but emptiness
"dad please" my voice was broken ..forming words with my heavy heart was tough ..but dad didn't even let me complete me instead he glared at me with so intensity that it made me shiver ...I knew and accepted that I had already lost the battle I was fighting .
