AURELIA'S POV:
"Let her go." Alessandro orders in a cold hard tone as he steps closer to me.
He came for me! But wait – why would he do that? Mia made it abundantly clear that he couldn't wait till I'm completely out of the way and out of his life. She made me believe that while I was suffering, they were probably planning their marriage.
"Now why would I do that?" Mr Black orders as he pulls out a knife, holding it to my neck.
I take note of a foreign emotion in Alessandro's eyes. Fear. Why would he be scared for me? I thought he wanted me dead? Wouldn't this make his job and life easier? I ask myself in a bitter tone.
"Don't worry, I told her of all your evil plans to take me out." Mr Black says with a smirk on his lips that grates on my nerves.
