My five husbands by Loren rivera (good english books to read .TXT) 📕

Christiana: Believe me, Xavier, I can handle much more than you think. 

Xavier: As if. 

Christiana: Okay, if you think that I am losing or over doing it, then you can stop me whenever. And all that time you will be with me right, so I don't think that my mind will mess up. 

Xavier: Fine. But if she is traumatized, Joseph, I am blaming you. 

Christiana: No, no one else will be to blame except me. And Xavier, stop with all this orders, I am not your girlfriend that you can order around. 

Xavier: Umm Hmm, yeah, I am sorry to bother you. We will talk later. Um Joseph,I will go and make sure that everything is going according to the plan. 

         Xavier hurried out of there and christiana also left before it could get more awkward. 

Shawn: Damn, those two. Why don't they confess their love to each other and than have sex and make up? I could sense the sexual tension from here. 

Ron: Their is too much ego and pride, that's why. 

Shawn: They require a little push. 

Daniel: Maybe, Joseph just pushed them apart instead of together.  

Joseph: As much as I know my best friend Xavier, I would say that was what had to he done. 

In Sicily:

            Blake was losing his mind thinking that how could his wife, the love of his life betray him like this. How could she be the traitor? Life cannot be that cruel to him. The person he loved more than anything in the world would have been the reason for his family's demise. He reached the mansion. 

          He was so full of rage and anger that no one could stop him now. He destroyed some lamps, planted, fences with his car on the way, and he could give a damn. His mind was in a haze. He straight away went to the basement of the mansion. Everyone was lucky that they did not come in his way otherwise they would have to face the wrath. 

           Once reaching the basement, he asked the guards where was she? But they didn't have an answer. 

Blake:Where the fuck is alexa? 

Guard: Don,our shift started now, we don't know if there is a person named Alexa in the cells.

Blake: Not a person named Alexa,my wife Alexa. 

Guard: What? Why? 

Blake: You are fired for not doing your jobs properly. 

Guard: Don,no please, don't do this. 

Blake: If you don't find her in a minute, you are going to regret it.

           The guards ran to check the different cells. The cells were different rooms with bars on the door. Every cell had different security systems. The insides of every cell were completely white. It was another trick that would play with the mind of the prisoner, causing hallucinations. The cells in the mansion were highly secured so that no one could break it or leave without them knowing.  

           One minute to check all the cells was impossible. There were hundreds of cells in the basement. The guards ran in the security room and checked the cameras installed in every cell. Thank God for the cameras,they thought. Then they ran to Blake and informed him about the cell Alexa was in. 

Blake: Cell 20. Okay, do your duty properly otherwise...

           And the guards breathed a sigh of relief. If they hadn't done the task in time, it would not have ended up good for them. Blake walked towards the cell with a heavy heart. 

          Blake knew the rules of the mafia. The traitors are punished with death. She may be his wife but in the eyes of the mafia, she is only a traitor. He could not safe her life and betray the mafia. Sure, he had the right to take decision but for him, mafia always came first. It was the last thing his sister had left him. 

         But how could he take away the life of the person with whom he wanted to spend his whole life. He entered the cell. Alexa looked like she had been crying for hours. She was sitting on the floor looking helpless. The sight in front of him did not resemble the woman he had married. It was a totally different person that was sitting in front of him. 

          When she saw him enter inside,she ran towards and hugged him for her dear life. Blake just stood there motionless. He did not make a move to hug her back. Alexa was dumbfounded by his reaction. 

Alexa: You came to save me,baby. Can you believe that our own son put me in a cell? How can he do that to his own mother? 

Blake: My son. He is not your son anymore. Not after what you did. 

Alexa: What are you saying, baby? What did I do? 

          Alexa was not told the reason she was locked up for. She tried to play dumb to fool blake.

Blake: You cannot fool me anymore, Alexa. I know what you did. How could you do this to my family? After all the love that I gave you, you give me this. 

          Blake tried to control his tears. He was not going to cry now, not atleast in front of her. Being a mafia leader means being able to control your emotions. So, that's what he did. 

Alexa: Baby, you are misunderstanding me. 

Blake: Oh really, so you did not help the enemies. You did not help ron and John. 

Alexa: I did. 

Blake: So please tell me how am I misunderstanding you? 

Alexa: Blake, baby....

Blake: Stop calling me fucking baby, you have lost that right when you chose to help those bastards. 

Alexa: Please, hit me, beat me but don't do that to me. 

Blake: Why? Just why? I know that you didn't help them for money,so what was the reason? 

Alexa: I had to help my son,blake, please understand I could not say no to my son. 

Blake: For fuck's sake, alexa, stop calling him your son. Ron is adopted for fuck's sake. You know that, he is not our biological son. And still you chose him over Luca and eva. 

Alexa: He is my son as much as Luca is. 

Blake: No, he is not. We adopted him after we lost our first child. 

Alexa: He is my son but not yours. I was in a relationship  with John kites( for those who don't remember he is John's dad, yeah they had the same name but different surname, our villain's surname is wicks) before we got married. But that affair continued even after our marriage. The first child we had was not yours but his, he was the one who got me pregnant.
