Dario POV

If being away from her was supposed to help me, there was something wrong with that plan. I was feeling more and more attached to her. Every moment I would think to myself what was she doing, was she happy or not and I that made me sad because I knew she was happy everywhere, except with me. I knew that I had to drive her away from me. This way everything would go back to normal. I hope this plan turns out right..

Aurora POV

"Are you happy?"-my mother asks me.

"Yes, yes of course."-I say to her trying desperately not to let tears go.

"I really hope so, because I look into your eyes and I see my little girl scared, hurt and in pain."-she says caressing my cheek and looking me in the eyes.

"No, of course not. He is.. great. He is charming and so nice and caring."-I say. I knew that if I was to continue this conversation I was going to burst out crying.

"The car is ready."-my sister Lucia says.

"Than I guess it's time to go than."-I say finally escaping my mother's gaze.

We get outside and I give my sister a big hug. I was already missing her. I didn't wanted to leave, but I had to. I knew that things had changed now.

I turn to my mother to hug her.

"Please be safe, and take care of yourself!"-she says looking at me in my eyes.

"I will."-I say, but I knew she would be worried either way. She could tell the truth.

"Goodbye."-I wave at them as the car drove away. I had to get back to what was now my house..

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I was now having a clear view of my inferno. I was going back to my prison with the man that reminded me of my painful life.

The car stops and the butler comes out to get my luggage. After him comes Elena. She was the only person that I could actually talk to in this house. The only person I liked having around me.

"You are finally back. The house has been very cold without your presence."-she says embracing me.

I smile at her:"You don't have to worry now, because I am here."

We get inside the house and I walk straight to my room. The butler leaves the luggage and I lay down on my bed.

"Are you happy?"-I remember my mother's question.

No, I am not.-I think to myself.

I grab the pillow and I could feel the white mattress getting wet

Right in that moment the door opens and he walks in.

"I heard you were back."-he says, his steps getting closer.

"What ar.. Oh God! Are you crying? Why are you always crying?? Why can't you just pull yourself together like everyone does? I got married to you too, you don't see me whining about it as much as I want to!"-he says and I get up from the bed.

"What do you want? What is it that you want? Every time you try to hurt me or say something that will? LEAVE ME ALONE!!"-I yell at him. My tears were flowing like a river and my voice was cracking.

"I CAN'T! DON'T YOU SEE IT? I AM STUCK WITH YOU AND YOU ARE STUCK WITH ME! NONE OF US CAN LEAVE NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE WANT TO! GET THAT IN YOUR HEAD AND GET OVER THIS!"-he yells grabbing my shoulders and shaking me.

I don't say anything. I just quit. I brake down in front of him. He takes a step back and walks away.

My throat was burning and my heart was aching. I felt exhausted from everything. I lay on the floor and close my eyes..

Dario POV

"Sir, sir. Please come. The lady is laying on the floor!"-I hear Elena's voice from the corridor.

Immediately I let go of the papers in my hand and run towards her room. She was laying on the floor just where I was standing thirty minutes ago.

I reach out and touch her. My hands find their way around her fragile body and I pick her up slowly. She was in a deep sleep.

I put my fingers on her wrist and measure her pulse. It was low, but not in a dangerous way. I guessed she was exhausted.

"Leave! She will be alright!"-I say to the servants. And I was going to take care of it.

They all leave, leaving me alone with her. I sat on the bed looking at her angelic face.

I had hurt her. I told her awful things at the worst time. I thought only for myself without caring about her. Maybe if she wouldn't talk to me than I wouldn't have these awkward feelings that are starting to appear inside me. If she would just stay away from me, I won't have to reach for her. I won't have to be so attracted to her. But I had to realize that the problem wasn't with her. It was with me...

"I am sorry."-I say touching softly her silky hair.

I shouldn't hurt you to push you away, I just have to find a way to be strong enough to stay away from you. -I think to myself while I wipe away something on my cheek... ***
