Chapters

She came here to clear her chaotic mind after witnessing her husband and his mistress having sex in their bedroom. She was furious, because even though she didn't love him, she remained loyal. She didn't want to destroy the family they had built, even if their marriage was just a business arrangement. She tried to love her husband and even wanted to have a child with him, but something always felt missing. It was as if he was searching for something more, and she could feel it too. But that didn't justify what he did. She had every right to file charges against them, but she didn't. Her husband begged her not to and promised he would never do it again. To cool her head, she decided to go to Elite Bar for the first time and have a vodka. Thankfully, their daughter was asleep when it happened, because if she hadn't been, she would have definitely filed for adultery and concubinage. "Hey there, beautiful lady. Why are you here alone? No friends with you or a boyfriend Wait, you're married?" the man commented in shock as he noticed the ring on her finger. She was mesmerized by his looks. He had amber eyes like copper, making her lose her senses. His aristocratic nose was striking from every angle, with thick lashes and brows that any woman would envy. A sharp jawline accentuated his masculinity, and his perfect white teeth and red lips looked irresistibly tempting. His top-knot hairstyle only added to his Adonis-like face. "What's your name?" he asked, surprising even himself with the boldness, considering she was clearly already taken. He grinned widely. "Damn, women who belong to others always seem drawn to me. But anyway..." He extended his hand. "I'm Erin De'Lucas. Single." His gaze deepened. Ember couldn't help but trace her eyes over his body, stunned by how sexy and hot he was. He wore a black shirt and black pants, and he had a piercing in his left eyebrow. She took his hand almost involuntarily, feeling his grip tighten. "I-I'm Ember Vernon. Nice to meet you." "You're beautiful," he gasped, caressing her face. "T-Thank you," she stammered, her voice weak. She wasn't sure if it was the vodka or just a natural reaction to him. He tilted his head, looking deeply into her eyes. "I don't normally interfere with other people's relationships, but seeing you right now, looking so stunning, makes me want to break my own rules. I want you to be mine." His breath was hot against her ear, sending shivers through her body. "Huh?" She was stunned by his words. He chuckled seductively and held her hand, staring at the ring darkly. "Will you give me the honor of being your other man, mi hermosa?" His gaze seemed to pierce her very soul. His aura screamed danger, yet she found herself drawn to it. She was married to Tyson, after all, and they had a daughter, Easter. But they didn't love each other-what was holding her back? Her daughter. "I-I don't-" Before she could finish, he covered her mouth with his large hand, her eyes widening in shock. His jaw tightened. "I don't accept rejection. I've had enough of it. Whether you like it or not, I'm already your other man. I don't care if you're married. I like you, and I want you to be mine. That's final, and you can't stop me from claiming you, starting tonight, mi reina." His voice was cold and dangerous. "Even your husband won't be able to stop me from having an affair with someone like you. This is your fault-you've captured my attention and my heart. Now face the consequences of being too irresistible." Without knowing how, she found herself agreeing as they sealed it with a torrid kiss that lasted all night. "I'm officially your forbidden love affair now, Mi Reina." Maybe it was time for her husband to taste his own medicine.

Chapter 1 Cheating

Chapter 1

"Where have you been all night?" Tyson greeted her as soon as she entered their house. It was already 6 am, and she had just returned from the Elite Bar. She had spent the night there, sleeping in one of Erin's VIP rooms. She had discovered that Erin owned the bar she visited, which made her feel awkward since she hadn't known he was such an important person. She had thought he was just a random guy looking for a prey to hook up with. His appearance alone suggested that many women were after him, and she was just one of them. Considering this made her think about ending their affair before it even began. She knew it would only lead to trouble as time passed.

"Not now, Tyson. I'm tired. Where's Easter? Did she already go to school?"

"You're changing the topic. I said, where have you been? Do you know that Easter was crying last night because she was looking for you? Why are you coming home just now? Are you seeing another man, huh?" he snapped at her while she took off her heels.

She looked at him without any emotion. "Seriously, Tyson? You're asking me that crap? You have the nerve to accuse me of cheating? Who was the one who cheated? Wasn't it you? So stop accusing me of something I didn't do. From the beginning of our relationship, you know how much I valued the family we built. I stayed loyal to you and tried to fix this marriage because I hoped our life together would get better even though we got married just for our parents' business. I even gave you a child, sacrificing my education because I wanted to fulfill my duties as your wife, even though we were still young. I took care of you like a devoted wife and didn't complain that you weren't doing the same because I understood your sentiments. You weren't in love with me, and neither was I, so I allowed you to keep our relationship a secret at school and even now. Only our parents knew about our marriage because they were the ones who pushed us together for the sake of their companies' expansion. Imagine all the sacrifices I made for you. I obeyed my parents because I was the kind of daughter who always said yes to them, and I sacrificed my freedom, my teenage life, and my dreams for the sake of the companies. But you still ended up cheating on me. How cruel can you be?"

Tyson was stunned by her words and hugged her.

"I-I'm sorry, I was just tempted. You were always busy, so my attention shifted to someone else. I tried to be loyal too, but I-I-"

She pushed him away. "But you couldn't? Then you don't deserve to be forgiven. Just leave me alone and go to your work. Focus on your job and ignore our problems because they can't be fixed. Let's just pretend that we're civil, and I'll try to restrain my emotions when I look at you. Seeing you only reminds me of the foolishness you did last night, making me angry. You're lucky I still have some pity as your wife, and I don't want Easter to be sad if she finds out her father is having an affair with another woman."

"S-Sweetie, please don't do this to me. That woman was just a passing fancy for me. I'll always come back to you and Easter." He held her hand, but she immediately pulled it away.

She laughed mockingly. "Wow, you have some nerve. Are you saying that to make me feel better? Sorry to disappoint you, husband, but I'm not a martyr who will forgive easily and accept you with open arms after what you did. Only a fool would do that, and I'm not planning to give you another chance to hurt me. Once is enough; twice would be a fool's choice."

She left him standing there, shoulders slumped. She went to her daughter's room to check if Easter was still there and saw her sitting at her vanity mirror while one of the maids brushed her hair. She was already wearing her school uniform.

"Mommy!" she greeted cheerfully when she saw her and ran towards her. She just chuckled and rubbed her daughter's cheek.

"Don't hug and kiss, Mommy. I smell awful. You'll catch it, go ahead."

Her daughter's eyes widened, and she quickly backed away. "Yuck, Mommy!" She and the maid laughed because they knew how particular her daughter was about cleanliness, just like her meticulous father. But he had a dirty conscience, only pretending to be a clean person.

"Ma'am Ember. I bathed her because I knew you'd be late coming home." The maid knew what really happened that night and was thankful for her thoughtfulness in taking care of things she shouldn't have to. Her job was to clean the house, not take care of her child, as that was her own responsibility.

"Thanks, Melissa." She smiled and looked at her daughter, who was pouting.

"Mommy, where were you last night? I was crying because I woke up, and you weren't beside me anymore. I thought you were just drinking milk in the kitchen, so I went there. But only Daddy was there, drinking coffee. He looked stressed and sad. Did you two fight? Is that why you weren't around and he looked gloomy?"

She quickly glanced at Melissa, who was also looking at her. "Ah, baby girl, you're late. Come on. We have to go; you might get scolded by the gate guard for being late to school. You can ask Mommy later. Let's hurry up, my nose is bleeding from watching you, baby girl."

"Nana Mimi, you need to go." She frowned, finding it cute.

Melissa just chuckled and grabbed Easter's backpack. "Okay, you're the smart one." She looked back at her and winked. "We're leaving, Ma'am Ember."

"No, Mommy, I want money for snacks."

The corner of her mouth lifted. "Ask your Dad in the living room; I'm sure he'll give you some cash." She egged her on.

Her daughter's eyes twinkled as she ran out of the room. Melissa yelled while chasing after her daughter. The two were really close because Melissa was the only one who took care of her daughter when she was away. The other maids weren't fond of kids, so they didn't approach Easter.

"D*mn." She hissed while rubbing her head. She thought her hangover was mild, but it wasn't. She quickly entered their bedroom, took off all her clothes, and soaked in the hot bathtub to relax her body and mind. Before she could finish her bath, her cellphone, which she had placed nearby, rang.

"Hello?" She said faintly and groggily.

"F*ck, you sound sexy. Mi Reina. I just want to inform you, I'm in front of your house; I brought some soup I made."

She jumped out of the bathtub, fully awakened by what he said. Her heart hammered as she thought about her husband in the living room.

"What the h*ll, Erin? Why did you come here? Are you crazy? My family is here. Do you want my husband to beat you up?" She said hysterically, hurriedly getting dressed.

"Oh la la. So thrilling. I like the feeling of being hidden, roar." She slapped her forehead at his response. Instead of being worried, he was even more playful.

"Sh*t, just go home now or go back to the bar. We'll get caught early because of what you're doing. My daughter is here, and I don't want her to witness a dramatic scene!"

He laughed loudly on the other end, and she shivered because of it. His voice was deep and cool, which, despite her nervousness about what might happen, strangely calmed her.

"Oops, my future daughter is there. Fine, I'll leave, but you need to give me a goodbye kiss first. How about that deal?"

"Are you insane? My husband is here."

"I don't care about your husband. He's just the husband; I'm the lover." She didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed at what he said.

"Shut up, you sound like an idiot," she suppressed a smile and looked at her husband, who was busy with his laptop in the living room. She noticed his wallet was open on the coffee table, and she knew Tyson would let Easter snatch some money from it. That's always how it was with father and daughter: Tyson was the bank, and Easter was the money snatcher.

Even though he wasn't a good husband, he was a decent father to their daughter, and that was enough for her. There was nothing she could do if Tyson couldn't resist cheating because he didn't love her enough to avoid temptations.

"Where are you going again?" She looked back as she failed to fully leave through the door.

Her husband was still looking at his laptop while asking her. He was so focused on his work.

"None of your business," she said coldly and quickly left. She knew Tyson wouldn't go after her because, when it came to work, he wouldn't give a d*mn about anyone around him and would prioritize his company work. He was too much of a workaholic once he started working.

"7 o'clock, Mi Reina," he said and hung up. What was he talking about, 7 o'clock? Was it a soft drink?

"P'please brother, don't do this to me, I'm begging you! " I begged but he just grinned and rubbed the gun on my shoulder, I was so scared that it might go off so my body was like a statue "You gave me a reason to do this baby, your f*cking testing my patience, so Kana will never get rid of me, I will make sure to destroy what you care about the most, F*ck!"

In front of the mirror, my reflection looks calm and composed. But inside, I'm filled with nerves. Itā€™s a big night. I observed myself, wearing a simple black dress with my long hair down, as if I were going to a wake. KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK! ā€œCan I come in?ā€ It was Brother Enzoā€™s voice, so I immediately turned around and saw him peeking in with a smile on his lips. ā€œYou know youā€™re always welcome, Brother Enzo. Iā€™m just checking my look before I make my grand entrance,ā€ I said, and Brother chuckled softly before giving my outfit a once-over. ā€œYeah, I see. It looks like youā€™ve really prepared for your first meeting with your fiance,ā€ he teased, but I knew he was also worried about me, which is why he came here. Iā€™ve been ready for a while now, yet Iā€™m still up here and havenā€™t gone downstairs. He knows Iā€™m just hiding out in my room. He took a deep breath as I lowered my head, and I felt his hand on my shoulder, so I turned to look at him as he sat down in front of me. ā€œYouā€™re stalling, Chiara. Itā€™s okay; you donā€™t have to pretend with me. I donā€™t like this arranged marriage either,ā€ he said, so I looked at him. ā€œThere must be a way to stop this, right?ā€ I asked, my eyes brimming with tears. ā€œHeā€™s not serious about marrying me, is he?ā€ I asked. ā€œAnd itā€™s not just any Montello, Brother. Weā€™re talking about Ethan Harris Montello. Heā€™s a monster!ā€ I exclaimed, and he let out a harsh breath at my words. ā€œBut father is a man of his word. He made the deal with the Montello elders, and he wonā€™t back out of it now,ā€ he said, and I shook my head. Why is this happening to me? I felt him hug me, so I just closed my eyes. brother Enzo may be hotheaded, but heā€™s always been gentle with me. This family is incredibly important to him. ā€œHey, Iā€™m worried about you too. If this truce doesnā€™t hold, who knows what could happen to you? Our family has been at war with the Montello family for decades. We may be at peace for now, but I doubt it will last,ā€ he said. ā€œDo you think there will be another war between our family and theirs?ā€ I asked, and he took a deep breath. ā€œI donā€™t know. This hatred is in our blood. It wonā€™t disappear just because weā€™ve been promised peace. Keep your wits about you, Chiara. Stay guarded around Ethan. He may be your husband soon, but heā€™ll always be our sworn enemy,ā€ Brother reminded me firmly. Married to my sworn enemy. Fate sure has a strong sense of humor when it comes to shaping your destiny. Fine, Iā€™ll do my best. No matter who I marry, in my heart, Iā€™ll always be a Bianchi. I looked at Brother. ā€œCome on. I should join the party before father sends out a search party,ā€ I said, and he offered his hand to me, which I accepted. I was incredibly nervous about making my entrance, knowing that Iā€™d see Ethan there. I canā€™t believe this is happening. This engagement feels like a bad dream...

"Stop running around! I'm exhausted chasing after you, Quiy!" I scolded my child. Seriously, he's so hyperactive. It's like he's a worm sprinkled with salt. He's only three years old, but I feel like I won't even make it to his college years because right now, I already feel like giving up. I wanted this, so I guess all I can say is... just bear with it! Instead of listening to me, he became even more aggressive. I might as well carry him in a basket just to keep him quiet. "I'll leave you here, youā€™ll see," I threatened, but it seemed to have no effect on this little rascal. "If you weren't so heavy, I'd carry you, but youā€™re heavier than a sack of rice!" I complained, knowing Iā€™d end up doing it anyway. Even though Quiy is a headache, I still love him, of course! Even if I were offered ten million, Iā€™d still choose my child. We always playfully bicker, but of course, it's all for fun. It would be boring if we didnā€™t talk, right? There are only two of us, so weā€™d be wasting our words if we stayed silent. If he inherited anything from me, it's my quick tongue. But his seems to be on overdrive. Mine is still manageable... but his? Itā€™s overflowing. "You're too slow, Mommy. I'm speeding up so we don't miss out," he said, rolling his eyes at me. If this kid wasn't just three years old, I might have done something drastic. "How can you miss out? We're in a grocery store. Thereā€™s plenty to buy, so you wonā€™t run out," I explained. He let out a heavy sigh, raised an eyebrow, and crossed his arms. "Then why havenā€™t you found my diapers yet?" he argued, his eyebrow arching even higher. "They said there's no more stock of your diapers, ma'am!" I sarcastically replied. "See, Mommy? We're out of stock because you're too slow. You're like a pregnant lady. I saw earlier that another mom grabbed the last one of my diaper type. I was going to snatch it, but then I saw her husband. Heā€™s so big, so I kept quiet," the little one shrugged. Why does he know so much? Sometimes I think maybe Iā€™m just a joke to the world, that heā€™s actually the mommy and Iā€™m the child because he knows more than I do. "I'm not pregnant. Where do you get these ideas? You look like a penguinā€”did you hear me say anything?" I raised an eyebrow at him. "Yes, you just did," he replied. Sometimes, I just want to put him in my pocket. Heā€™s so annoying! He always has something to say! "Quiyana Louise," I called out his full name. Whenever I do that, he usually behaves because he knows Iā€™m about to scold him. "I won't run anymore, Mommy," he said, pressing his lips together tightly. I nodded in relief. Thank goodness. I'm only twenty-four, but I feel like Iā€™m sixty. Itā€™s exhausting taking care of a mischievous child, especially one whoā€™s always cheeky. If I didnā€™t love him... Even though he's the most mischievous, headache-inducing, and expensive child, Iā€™d still do anything to give him the good life he deserves. I never experienced these things when I was a child because I wasn't born rich. There were even times when my parents couldnā€™t afford to buy even a kilo of rice, so the solution was to borrow from the neighbors. For me, thereā€™s no shame in coming from such a life. Even now, I sometimes find myself needing to borrow money, but at least I know how to pay it back. Iā€™ll work even harder to give my child a good life. "Youā€™re smiling again, Mommy. Iā€™m not being naughty anymore," I heard him say. Thatā€™s why I love this kid. At least heā€™s affectionate too. A smile slowly formed on my lips. He even clapped when I did. "My mommy is so beautiful..." he praised, something that probably only happens once a month. Most of the time, I just get insults from him. I donā€™t even know where he got that attitude fromā€”Iā€™m kind... and so are my parents. "Enough with the compliments, Quiy. I already knew that. Do you think complimenting me will make me buy you chocolate?" I looked down at him. "No. Your teeth will fall out," I added, causing his shoulders to droop in disappointment while pouting. Heā€™s already missing teeth, yet he still wants sweets. Of course, I donā€™t want him wearing dentures at such a young age! Besides, I canā€™t afford such things. He stayed quiet, so I focused on the shopping list I had written. Iā€™m the type who thinks of many things to buy while at home, but when Iā€™m actually at the store... I forget. So young and already forgetful. Iā€™d almost bought everything. Only Quiyā€™s diapers and milk were left. I was about to call him when my heart pounded loudlyā€”I didnā€™t see him in the aisle where I was. I quickly put down the basket I was holding and took quick steps to search for Quiy. My heart raced even faster with every aisle I passed where I didnā€™t see him. Where could that child have gone?! "Quiy?" I called, but still no response. I had passed several aisles, but still no sign of Quiy. I must have called out every saint I knew, but still nothing. "Quiy, my child?!" I called out agai
