Rocco's POV
The scowl I have on leaves my face the moment she stares up to meet my gaze. She looks so drunk and cute and I can't help but let my anger dissolve. She is good at getting me mad. Then the next minute, my anger will be gone. "Who the hell was that?!" I question her. She laughs and shakes her head. "I have no slightest idea", she doesn't look like she cares about who he is but I do. What if I wasn't here? What if I didn't come to the party with her, what would have happened? I know how much she loves parties and I wonder about all the crazy things she must have done before we got married. I know she had a boyfriend and obviously, she goes to parties with him but I can't help but worry about the sort of intimacy between them even after knowing that they never had sex. She twirls around with her back to me as she puts my hands aRelated chapters

Valentina's POVWith a groan and a banging headache, I step down from the bed, glancing around to see if Rocco came back to sleep here last night or not.The other bed is empty and seems untouched.Rubbing a finger on my forehead, I walk to the fridge to get some water. Suddenly, I remember I told Rocco to go out of the room last night which must be the reason why he didn't come back.Maybe he is in the other room.After drinking a glassful of water, I stroll to the door, the headache still very much present.I take the door out and move towards my room, wondering if he slept there or somewhere else.I was really harsh last night and I feel bad for sending him out of his room. I feel stupid for initiating the heated kiss which almost led to something else and I couldn't help my rudeness. I just don't want him to think otherwise.

Valentina's POVThe darkness of insecurity envelops me as I stare into his blue eyes, watching me intensely before sighing.This reaction that I get from him every single time is what makes me more curious about who the damn woman is. If I wasn't curious about her before now, what happened a few minutes ago is enough to make me more curious about her.Celina Sebastian is not a woman I like. I don't know if it's because I saw her with Fred or the fact that she had a past with Rocco.I keep telling myself that she must have dated Rocco in the past. I called her his ex-girlfriend but whenever I think deeply about this, I keep denying it because Rocco was never in a relationship which means there is something more to it.Rocco seems to dislike her. She seems to like him. What answer does that give me?I don't know. The more I ask these questions, the more confused and curious I be

Valentina's POVWarmth spread through my body at the thought of having a special day with him. It replaces the displeasure I felt for his actions earlier and I continue to take in his features as he stares out of the window till the car stops.Why is he always sweet and kind to me despite everything I have done?"Here we are", his deep voice interrupts my thoughts and he gets out of the car to open the door for me. "Close your eyes", he whispers into my ears the moment he pulls the car door open and leans fully in so that I can smell his lovely cologne.I do not oblige to his command but continue to watch him, wondering what it would feel like to be madly in love with him.Will he still be as sweet as he is to me right now? Will he be faithful like he is to me right now? Will he love me forever and not stop loving me for a second?The way I react to his touch tonight is

Valentina's POVTangled in the comforter of Rocco's bed as my eyes open, a throbbing pain hits my head, reminding me of my hangover and what happened last night.Before I can think too deeply about it, I see a glass of water and two medicine on the side drawer that will help with the hangover. I quickly take it to gulp it down while sitting upright.I feel sore and I remember it all.I remember how he made passionate love to me last night and how his warm body felt against mine. I remember how he worshiped every part of my body and made me conscious of them. I remember how he kept on muttering my name and how beautiful I am.I remember how he was patient enough for me to reach the climax alongside him.I feel like I know a lot about sex because I read about it, we talk about it with Brenda but this feels different.Despite the bright smile that spread to my fa

Valentina's POVI flutter my eyes open and shut them back almost immediately. My head throbs and my eyes are weak.I try to lift my legs and I do so without any hassle. I try to lift my hands too and I did too.When I drop them back on the bed, I become weaker.Where the hell am I?I open my eyes again to see nothing but white ceilings with huge hanging white fans.Why is everything full of white? Where am I? Who am I?I take a couple of deep breaths, then I feel a comforting touch on my hand. Before I can turn to stare at who the person is, a shout of triumph fills the air."Valentina!" I hear them shout till I can see their faces. I recognize two of them but one of the faces seems unfamiliar."My baby, please say something!" my mother gushes at me. Even if I do not recognize her, her actions alone are enough to give it away that this is my mother.What happened to me?She takes the hand

Valentina's POVNo one believes me, not even my husband or my Father. If Mother didn't know about this, I would have assumed she doesn't believe me either because she keeps avoiding the topic.This is insane.This whole thing.Not me. I am fine. Absolutely fine. There is nothing wrong with me except for the bandage around my head."You have to believe me, Father", I point out in impatience. "I know what I am saying."He continues to remain silent, without looking shaken or shocked, making me wonder if he knows about this too.Where the hell did Mother hear it from? She was the one who told me and I was so sure Rocco wasn't aware. I was having my doubts about it as well until that incident.His Mother isn't even calling me and not picking up my calls. Everybody is looking at me like a crazy woman and I am desperate to see her now more than ever

Valentina's POVShe is either pretending or completely unaware of what happened in her presence that day.I won't take this as a yes to the doubt about my mental health. Don't crazy people know they are crazy?I am fine. Absolutely doing fine. There is nothing wrong with me or my brain. My brain is in perfect condition.Just like her usual self, she smiles at me sweetly as we are having dinner, passes me the salt, stretches the jug of fruit juice at me, and even pats my hand simply because she feels sorry for the bandage that is still over my head.I forget most times that I still have this damn thing on my head. The way it makes me so uncomfortable sometimes is what makes me remember while other times, it is when people flash me pitiful looks just like Rocco's mother is doing right now.I am picking at my food because I can't help the confusion I am feeling right now. I know I am right but I still don't know what else to think about a

She can barely hide things from him even when he hides almost everything about himself away from her.If Mother knows the secret between him and Mr. Lorenzo then I won't bother myself so much just for him to tell me what it is.I won't be here again, determined to do whatever it takes for him to tell him the truth. This is the only way Rocco can believe me and this is the only way we can save his Mother.When I told him Anita was involved, he went ballistic with anger. I thought he was going to ask me why I said that or what I saw so I could explain but he became furious, he wouldn't even speak to me as we rode home in silence.Slowly, I am beginning to get tired of everything. I can't take any action so I won't jeopardize my life, my parent's life, and even Rocco's. He isn't seeing the efforts I am making in all of this.
