(BTW Wanting to be His is #2 of the 'Pretending to be His' series. You can find my first book Pretending to be his on wattpad which is about Ace and Victoria's love story.

However, this book can be read as a standalone but it is recommended to do so to get a bit more understanding of the characters and how they came to be.)

ENJOY...

CHAPTER 1 :My Unrequited Love

My name is Aurora de Luca, I am the daughter of the once ruthless mafia Don, Ace de Luca. My mother is Victoria (Rossi) de Luca, the woman my father kidnapped to marry so my grandmother Lucinda would leave him alone. I love hearing that story, mom used to tell me and my brother Nikolai that story when we were younger.

Mom always tells me that I will have an enchanting love story and find my prince charming like she did... But I gave up on that dream a long time ago.

My father's best friend Luca who is the Sicillian mafia boss has a son called Leo. I have been in love with Leo ever since I can remember. I always dreamed of him being my prince charming.

Leo is the heir to the mafia and is my brother Nikolai's best friend. My father and Leo's father are best friends but they don't like using the term but I know they are because they come to our home for every holiday.

Birthday's, Easter, Christmas. EVERY HOLIDAY.

I see them as family, I've practically grown up with them. Leo's mother Chiara is like a second mother to me and Luca is like an uncle. Every holiday they come and I have to see HIM. I have to see Leo, and know that he will never love me back.

I have to hear him talk to Nikolai about his last one night stand and how he loves being free and not being in a relationship. He says he doesn't have time for relationships.

Rolling my eyes mentally..

I have been in love with Leo ever since I can remember. Mom used to tell me of how he used to rock me to sleep when I was a newborn and he was a few years old, and how he would hold my hand.

It's not like that anymore, over the years he began to despise me and I don't know why.

He knows I've been in love with him since we were younger and he loves to take advantage of it.

But not anymore.

I haven't seen him for a few months as he was off training to take over the Sicillian mafia from his father. This gave me time to reflect on myself and I've come to realise I deserve better and I should stop waiting around for something that will never happen.
