The Unwanted Marriage

Chapter 24

Amara's pov:

Walking out of the jet , I saw a black SUV waiting for us. I held Sophie's hand and walked to the car. The driver opened the car for us with a smile. We got in and he started driving, after putting our luggage in the trunk.

Damien told me some information I need to know about his brother. His name is Nicolas. He's married and has three children; Mariano who's 17 , Maria she's 14 , and Isabella who's 12. His wife's name is Catherine.

Damien said that they're all excited to meet me and Sophie for the first time. And they're all welcoming us in their house. I'm a little embarrassed to live with them , but I hope everything goes well.

After a 30-minute drive, we arrived at Nicolas's mansion. Sophie and I walked up to the door and I pressed on the bell , causing it to ring. We waited for less than a minute before the door was opened.

"Hello mrs.Salvatore , I'm the butler of the house , you can call me Steve. Mr.Nicolas and his family are waiting for you in the living room. All your luggage will be taken to your rooms". I gave him a smile then he led us to the living room.

Walking in the living room, I saw all the family members in there. I looked at them all and smiled , saying hello. Nicolas got up and shook my hand.

"Hello Amara , it's a pleasure to finally meet you". From the way he talked , I could notice the Italian accent in his voice.

"It's nice to meet you too". His wife got up and shook my hand.

"I'm Catherine,his wife. Hello there little one". She tried reaching for Sophie , but she hid herself behind my leg.

"She's a little shy". I chuckled as I rubbed her head.

"Oh that's normal , all toddlers do that. Ragazzi, venite a conoscere la moglie di vostro zio"
-Guys , come meet your uncle's wife-

They all shook my hand and Catherine introduced me to them. Mariano and Isabella seem to like me. But Maria , I can't say the same for her.

We sat down and talked a little. After that , Catherine showed me the rooms we're staying in. She even got a room ready for Sophie , but I told her that she will sleep with me.

After unpacking, I gave Sophie a bath then bathed myself. After the bath , we slept for about two hours.

I woke up at the sound of my phone ringing. I looked at it and found Damien's name. I quickly sat up and answered.

"Hello Damien"

"Gosh Amara , you scared me ! I thought something happened for you ! Why weren't you answering me ??"

"I'm sorry , I was sleeping"

"It's okay. How is everything going ?". He asked after sighing.

"Meeting them went smoothly. Everyone seem to like me but I'm not sure about Maria"

"It's okay , she'll like you when she gets to know you"

"Mhm , I hope that. What are you doing ?"

"Taking a break from all the shit going on"

After talking to Damien on the phone for an hour, we hung up.

I took a shower then curled my hair. Slipping in a short , white , off-shoulder dress , I walked downstairs to the living room. I saw the three young teenagers watching a movie.

"Auntie Amara , you should watch this movie with us. It's really good". Isabella said. I sat next to her with my legs crossed.

"Really ? I've never watched it"

"Just shut up and let us watch". I heard Maria saying under her breath. I embarrassingly stopped talking.

"Maria ! è stato così irrispettoso !". Owen yelled at his sister. She just rolled her eyes and continued watching the movie.
-that was so disrespectful-

"What was so disrespectful ?". We all turned our heads to the voice , which was Nicolas's.

"Maria was being disrespectful to auntie Amara". Isabella said. I hate being in the middle of a family fight.

"Papà, non mi piace !". Maria yelled at her father. I really didn't understand any word that came out of her mouth but I know that she doesn't like me.
-Dad , I don't like her-

"Smettila di fare la stronza e sii gentile per una volta". Nicolas said to his daughter then sat down one of the couches.
-Stop being a bitch and be respectful for once-

This is not gonna go well.
