Chapter 99: My love
"Is this some type of therapy, nothing is going to make me like you Olivia, I know what you are? I know what you are mad about and what you have done and you are aware of what Luca has done too, yet you love him, yet you stay with him, that’s all that matters, you are the same as him."
"But what he told you is not the truth," I whispered, my eyes begged for help as I stared at her yet she didn’t listen to me, I didn’t want him to kill her yet it seemed like it was going to happen and I needed to find my peace with it, I know he will never care and so be it.
I stared at her again, this time unsure and unable to speak.
"I did all I could do for you, Luca was willing to give you another chance, because he believed in me but maybe death is the only chance you are going to get, you are never Going to change, you are always going to hate me, you are always going to hate what I do and no matter what you do, you would always find your way to make and my family suffer, one last time before you get killed." I smiled, I leaned in toward her with the most vibrant smile on my face.
Her eyes were on mine when I placed my hand on my stomach, I don’t care if she knows, she is never leaving this room, she is never going to find the peace she wanted, and because she supported the wrong person, she is going to be dead.
"What?" Natalie whispered as she stared at me. "It can’t be, this is what we are fighting against."
"He is already dead and soon you will join him, my baby would have had the best life anyone could ask for, and guess what, people like you will come but at the end of the day, you will go too, you will never be anywhere close to my baby, I tried to save you and I am done." I smiled before I walked away.
The moment I headed out of the basement, I found Luca waiting for me.
"Make it quick Luca, it doesn’t have to hurt," I whispered and he nodded, I watched as he signaled of the guards to make it happen, I don’t care what they do, they can inject her, or even suffocate her, all I want is for her to be gone, I don’t even want to think about her, I don’t even want to bare the thought of her anywhere close to her, she is bad, she is poison and she would never be able to come anywhere near us again.

"So it’s over," I whispered as I stared at Luca, his eye gently met mine and he gave me a nod. "And Sebastian, you are not going to hurt him," I asked and Luca shook his head.
I should have known he would not give him a chance. No matter what anyone said, he would make sure that he paid.
"I will not, his father would be coming here soon and he would bring him to me, I don’t need someone like him alive, his father has a choice, to protect his son or lose everything he has ever word for, he knows that, he can have another heir, this time a better one, I am sure his wife can have one more kid and he knows that, he can’t stand a chance against me, he can start whatever he wants, he can’t get everyone to work with him, and he will end up losing everything he has ever owned, it would be pathetic."
"He chose money and power over his son, it always seemed like he loved and cared for Sebastien."
"He never did, he did love and care for money, he love and care for power but not so much about his so called son, Sebastine is a bad egg and if we keep him alive, he would be sure that one days he will come for you, one day he will muster all of the hate that he generates and one day he will make sure that I pay what have I have done, taking you away, and I don’t need that."
"He is fine with his father turning him in."
"I don’t care and I don’t think he knows," Luca murmured and I smiled, I leaned in and rested my head on my chest, I felt a wave of relief wash over me and a smile appeared on my face when he wrapped his hand around me and pulled me closer to him.
His scent filled my nostrils, I had never felt this happy before, it felt like I was able to get what I desired, I didn’t have to worry about anyone or anything, and for the first time, it felt like we were safe,
A part of me was even glad Aria is gone forever, I almost scolded myself mentally for even thinking about that, but it’s not that bad, because if she were alive, she would find a way to come back to our lives and she would hate my baby, she would think we took away something that was never hers to begin with.
She would think she is like her mother, she can take away whatever she wants because it belongs to her, I had thought it’s a good thing she is not here and I even thought it’s better I just have Luca with me.
"How about Ares?" I breathed out, my voice so low, I don’t want him fighting with him but Ares had proven that he cared less about me over and over again, and he could do the same to the baby, that’s if he would even let this baby grow inside of me, without looking for a way to bring an end to it
"I will take care of him, he has proven to be a danger to you and our baby, and to be honest, I hate that I would have to do something about him, I don’t want to hurt him, and I wish I didn’t have to but it’s the only way."
"You are going to kill him, your men are never going to agree to that."
"What the feel or think, it does not really matter to me at the moment, what is going to matter is that, when they find out what is happening, they are going to hate him even more, they would what hint o be dead too and they would beg for my forgiveness, they would beg that I forgive them for what will happen because if something had happened to you, it would be over for all of them," Luca explained. "I won’t kill him, I will simply have a conversation with him and Ares is a rule follower, he already knows what he will do and I know that he would end up being the one to make the decision." He explained and I nodded.
It didn’t matter, yes I felt horrible that he would even think about killing Ares but he knows their rules better than me and he is not an exception and he knows that, no matter what happens, what he does, he would still come for me unless he is dead.
I guess I have learnt that, dying is always the better option, I have always thought that, forgiveness is better, it’s better if they s y away from me and I always thought it was like that but it’s a lie, Aria was never going to be like that and she proven that form time to time, all she wanted is to make sure that she wants my Luca and Ares is the same too.
Ares would never forgive me if he were banished, his anger would run into distaste, it would turn into hate and he would never ever even think of forgiving me, he would punish me, he would make my kids get punished too, and at the end of it, it’s never going to end well for me.
I turned to look at Luca.
"Sorry, I was thinking about everything. You know when I met him, I thought I would always get him to warm up to me, I always thought that he would be like a brother to me because I never really had siblings and when I met you, I always thought that he would care for you like I do and cherish you but I guess I was wrong."
"It’s never your fault, you never did anything bad to him, he is the one, and I would love to have that conversation with him because at the end of it. I would love to hear what he had to say and to be honest. We are better off without him." Luca said and I smiled.
