Next Day.

I woke up to the sound of loud snores, I covered my ears with my hands hoping I wouldn't hear anything but I still could. I sighed. I stretched my arms and my legs then I sat up on the bed.

It was pretty comfortable. I swayed my feet in front of me and slowly placed them on the hardwood floor. I stood up and walked into the living room to see Max fast asleep on the couch.

He looked so harmless and cute when he was sleeping then a knock came from the door. Should I open it? I walked over to Max and shook his arm "Max! Wake up!"

"What's is it?"He groaned his eyes still shut "I'm trying to sleep"

"Someone is at the door "

He quickly opened his eyes and sat up he looked at me then another knock came on the door. He rested his hand on his forehead "Did you order room service?"

I shook my head for no "I didn't "

He got up from the couch he was still topless and in his underwear. He walked towards the door as I sat down on the couch.

He opened the door only to see Matt stood there . "What are you  thinking?"Max said as they walked in

Max closed the door behind him"There is an event tonight "Matt replied "He is going to be there "

Max let out a growl Matt didn't even see me "River can you go in the next room?"Matt asked

I got up from the couch and looked at them I put my hands on my hip "No "

"It wasn't a question "Max rolled his eyes and pointed at the bedroom "Just get in there "

"Since when did you get to boss me around?"

"Since the day you walked into my office "

"I'm going to stay put "

He walked over to me and picked me up he threw me over my shoulder. "Stop it!"I said as my hands curled into a fist and started to beat his back I looked at Matt "Help me!"

Max walked into the bedroom and threw me into the bed and closed the doors before I could get off the bed.

Bastard.

I got up from the bed and stood by the door to eves drop. I couldn't hear anything I guess he knew I would do that.

I walked over to the bed and sit down in the middle with my legs crossed.

A few minutes later I heard the front door shut then the bedroom doors opened Max stood there his arms crossed over his hunky chest "When I tell you to do something I expect it to be done "

I looked at him and let out a laugh "You must be having a laugh!"

"I'm not "He rolled his eyes "Here right now you are my wife so you listen to me and don't do anything else "

"This isn't the 1800's "

He looked at me "You are going to listen to me!"

I slipped off the ring and threw it at him "I don't want to do this unless you tell me why are we doing this "

"You don't need to know "

I got up from the bed and walked towards him "I suggest then you go to the red whatever shit they call it here and get an escort or an prossie at least you'll have some action and no one needs to suffer from lack of sleep!"

I curled my hand into a fist ready to get him he caught a hold of my fist then ready to do it on my other hand he caught that one as well. "You are going to do what I say "

I nodded "First tell me what is it "

"We are attending this event tonight"He said "You need a dress which will be sent up shortly but first we at wheedling out for breakfast "

"Why are we here? Why are we in Italy for?"

"Because there is a prick that needs to be sorted out "

"Who is that exactly?"

"That's for me to know and for you not to know "

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

I looked at the dress. A black dress all the way to my legs and it had spaghetti straps. It had a beaded waistline. I turned around to Max he was in a tux he was looking at himself in the mirror he looked at me "Wear it!"

"I-I can't "

"Why?"

I looked at him and took a deep breath then let it out "The bruises on my arms haven't disappeared "

He looked at me and sighed "When we get there I'll let you wear my tux jacket "

I didn't bother to argue he wasn't going to care I walked into the bathroom and put my dress on my make up was done and my hair was by this lady who was bored next door and I'll let her do it for me.

I walked out and slipped on heels. I looked at my arm. I don't want to do this.

I walked over to the mirror and looked at myself my eyes brimmed with tears. My arms still covered in those bruises. I felt two hands on my shoulder and it was Max.

"You look beautiful "He said with a smile then he took a hold of my hand and slipped on the ring.

"I don't want to go "I turned around and looked at him "People are going to stare then they'll think you did something "

"Let them stare you look fine "

He turned around and then we walked out of the hotel room and the hotel. We went into the car silence between us then a twenty minutes later the car stopped.

Max got out and held out his hand I took mine into his then I got out. I looked at him and smiled "Let's go "

Then we walked into this beautiful mansion in front of us. We walked up the stairs and walked into the mansion.  Fountains everywhere. A massive garden as we walked up. It had cream walls and sliver everywhere it okay to be honest I loved the outside more then the inside.

I felt eyes on me I looked at Max he rubbed my hand with his thumb "It's fine "He whispered then We walked further into the place.

I took a glass of champagne as Max was talking to these people. I took a sip of it then the lady looked at me whose husband was talking to Max.

She pointed at my bruises "How did you get those?" Then she pointed at Max.

I shook my head quickly for no "It happened at work "

"I'm Linda "she shook my hand then slipped something in my palm as her husband finished the conversation with Max. "Ring the number "She whispered then she went.

Max looked at me I bit my lip "What's wrong?"

"She thinks you did this "I pointed to my arms "I shouldn't of came "

He rubbed my shoulder and kissed my cheek "It is fine "

He just kissed my cheek?! Then I saw the people looking at us that is why eh did that.

"Can I just have your jacket now?"I sighed "I'm not comfortable "

He nodded and took his jacket off and put on my shoulders I could hear people saying aww.

"I'm going to get some fresh air "then I walked away from him I walked outside  I saw a bench I sat down on the bench and the tears started.

I shouldn't of came.

I shouldn't of came to Italy.

I need a flight for tomorrow to home.

"Why are you outside here all alone?"I heard someone say

I looked up to see Donathan in front of me. He looked at me and smiled "River! What are you doing in Italia?"

I looked at him and faked smiled "Travelling!"

"Mind If I sit next to you?"He asked as he bit his lip

I nodded "Take the seat "

He nodded and sat next to me "Why the upset face?"

A tear strolled down my face I quickly wiped it away "It's nothing "

"If it was nothing then why are you upset about it?"

Before I could answer A man was in front of me "Your husband miss is leaving "He said "He told me to take you to him "

I nodded "I'm coming " then I got up from the seat and looked at Donaethan "I'm sorry "

"You have to go "He said with a smile "I'm leaving Italy tonight I would of asked you of your hotel but you are married so I'll see you a round. "

"I'll see you "then I left.

I sat in the car and Max sat by the window as I sat on the other side. He looked at me "Tomorrow we are leaving for England"

I turned to him "I didn't even get to see Rome "

"Well tough "

Oh great!
