Nicholas' POVHere she was, asking what I did when she was the reason everything happened. She looked fierce and angry, likely having overheard my conversation with Carlos."What did you do, Nicholas?" she snapped. Realizing it was more serious than I had initially thought, I motioned to Carlos to give us some privacy. After he left, I took a few steps toward her."You want to know what I did?" I asked, gazing into her eyes which had darkened with anger. "I killed a man. I killed a man because of you, Laura. That's what I did."Her brows furrowed, and her face flushed red. "How dare you? How dare you take a life and then dare to blame it on me?" she exclaimed."Don't ever ask me such a question again! Who the hell do you think you are to question me?" I retorted. How did it all come to this? When did I stoop to such a level, allowing a mere lady to raise her voice at me and dictate what I should or should not do? What insolence! Nicholas, just look at what you've become, I thought.I

Nicholas' POV"Boss, there's been a shooting at our bar. We've lost two men," came the urgent report. I stood up abruptly, trying to process what I had just heard. Two of my men had been shot?"Josh, you wasted no time," I gritted my teeth in anger. He had acted swiftly, not even waiting for a few more days or weeks. He had struck within 24 hours? That wasn't his usual method."I'll be there soon," I said into the phone before ending the call. I glanced over at Laura's concerned face. She could tell that something was amiss."What's the problem, Nicholas?" she inquired."Nothing much, it's just a work-related issue," I lied. I didn't want her to know what had just occurred. How could I tell her that two men had lost their lives as a result of last night's events? The news would devastate her, and she'd blame herself for their deaths. I couldn't allow that; I couldn't let anything harm her fragile heart.I was the one who took that man's life, and I had to bear the consequences of my a

Nicholas' POVDid she even need to ask that? I mean, I would give anything to have her in my room every single night. She probably still doesn't understand how much she means to me."I would want nothing more than that, my love," I replied with a smile as I planted a kiss on her lips."Okay, let me grab my things," she said, jogging into her room. I waited outside for her and she emerged a few seconds later. I wrapped my arm around her waist and led her to my room. This night was going to be truly special.*********Laura's POVI gazed at him with dreamy eyes. I loved the man before me; there was no debate about it. My fingers traced along his perfectly chiseled jawline. He was still asleep, and how could he not be after the three rounds of passionate sex we had last night? I doubted if I'd even be able to get out of bed today. I just lay there, admiring him.He stirred and rubbed his hand over his eyes. He looked at my smiling face and returned the smile, leaning closer to plant a ki

Nicholas' POVShe smiled shyly at me and, without warning, leaped into my arms. I staggered momentarily due to her weight and the suddenness of her jump, but I managed to steady myself before wrapping my arms around her.She hadn't given me a reply yet; I wondered if the hug was meant to be a yes. She held onto me so tightly, pressing her head into my neck.I patted her back softly and asked, "Should I take that as a yes?"She pulled away slightly from me to get a glimpse of my face, nodded, and said, "Of course, it is a yes, Nicholas.""Great!" The restaurant's workers were looking in our direction, eager to know her response. Most of them were already aware of what was happening; they knew I had planned everything to propose to the love of my life. Not wanting to exclude them from sharing in our joy, I called out, "She said yes!"There was a loud cheer from them, and Laura looked in their direction, smiling. I took her hand and said, "Thank you for accepting to become my girlfriend.

Laura's POVI waited for her to speak, clueless about what she wanted to say. Deep down, I knew it would be something I wouldn't like at all."I want to meet him. Please bring him to me," she said."Mother!" I snapped. "You know I can't do that just yet. It's still too early.""What's still too early?" A deep male voice came from behind."Nicholas!" I shouted. "You startled me." He laughed and wrapped his arms around me."You haven't answered my question," he added.I heaved a sigh and glanced at my phone; my mother was still on the line. "It's my mom. She wants to see you," I replied.He stood up straight. "Then let her see me. Is there anything wrong with that?" I looked at him quizzically. "Are you sure about that?" I asked."Of course," he motioned with his hand as he whispered, "Is she still on the line?" I nodded, and he took the phone from me."What are you doing?" I questioned, attempting to retrieve the phone from him. He placed it to his ear and said, "Hi, Mother. This is Ni

Laura's POV "You don't know? Huh, Nicholas is going to make your night unforgettable. Just get ready, and after what he did for your mother today, you better cherish and appreciate him, give him the best of your love...""Sonia!" I snapped."What?" she teased. "I'm just advising you. Endeavor to hold onto this man now that you've found love. Only then can I continue enjoying this good life."I laughed heartily and stood up from the bed, intending to playfully chase her for what she just said, but she was too fast and dashed out of my room before I could catch her. I just shut the door behind her and went back to my bed."Silly, naughty girl!" I thought. If I didn't know her so well, I would say she only wanted me to stay with Nicholas because of his money and what she stands to enjoy by sticking around. But Sonia is not like that, at least not towards me. She has my best interests at heart. She is one person I trust will fight for me behind my back and move mountains just to defend m

Laura's POVShe went and hugged him too, and then finally she hugged Sonia, asking her how she has been since it has been very long since she saw her. It was probably about 3 years now since the last time Sonia came home with me.Back then, we had heard an earful about why we should start scouting for good men to date. My mother loves Sonia; she has been very picky about the kinds of friends I kept while growing up, but somehow, she naturally gravitated toward Sonia.She would often tell me to bring Sonia when next I am coming to visit her, but it wasn't really possible for me, as Sonia has always been busy with work or an engagement whenever it was time to visit my mom. Thankfully, she's here today.My mom ushered us into the room while she walked side by side with Nicholas. No one needed a fortune teller to reveal how she felt about him. He had managed to charm his way into her heart with his personality and beauty, just as he does with every other woman.I sat beside him on a couch

Laura's POV "I am sorry, Mother. I wish we could stay the night, but I have an emergency I need to attend to at home," he said. "How can you book a flight this evening? Would you even be able to find any flights going to Italy at this time of night?" she asked. Nicholas smiled and began to say, "We came with..." "Return tickets," I finished, cutting him off. He looked at me quizzically, wondering why I had done what I did, but suddenly it seemed to click. "Oh yeah, we booked return tickets for the three of us," he said. My mother had a solemn look on her face; she liked Nicholas a whole lot and would have wanted him to stay the night. "Don't worry, Mother. You can always come over to visit us in Italy. Whenever you want to come, just say the word, and I'd book your flight," her face instantly lit up. "Trust me, that will happen pretty soon," she said, looking at the three of us. "I bet it will," I replied. She rolled her eyes at me, and we all chuckled. "Okay, off we go then,"
