"Who the fuck are you?" he barked, using his hands to grab my neck in a vice grip. I struggled for breath, feeling my life slipping away.

"Please... I...can explain."

He losened his grip but kept his hands on my neck. "Then do it."

Tears spilled from my eyes like rain. "I... I'm not Sol... I'm her twin sister Luna."

*********
Luna Grande never thought she'd have to return to the dangerous world of her mafia family. But when her twin sister Sol disappeared, she was forced into a role she never wanted- replacing her sister and marrying Dominick Phoenix, the cruel and domineering Don of the rival Phoenix Mafia Dynasty. 

Dominick Phoenix is the newly crowned Don of the Phoenix Mafia Dynasty and will do everything to keep his position. But when Dominick discovered that Luna was not who he thought she was, he lost it and went berserk in search of her sister Sol. 

For indeed Sol has something valuable in her possession that Dominick wants badly.

The Mafia's Subtitute Bride

He pulled away from the kiss. "I'm sorry about..." He shook his head, looking away. "I don't know what got into me."

"It's alright," I said, lowering my gaze a little. "Don't worry about the..."

"The kiss?" he sighed. "Don't worry, I won't do it again. I promise I won't bother the both of you. So you have nothing to be worried about," he reassured me.

I had no words for him. I wanted to tell him that I was yet to give Alen an answer, but he didn't even give me a chance to speak.

"I did it at the spur of the moment, don't take it seriously," he muttered, his expression turning bland now. "If you'll excuse me, goodnight."

I watched him vacate the kitchen silently. Once again, he made me feel so small and inferior. Why is Dominick so afraid of admitting he might have feelings for me? Is that how little he thinks of me?

Acceptance.
