“Siena, your daddy, is blowing up my phone again—he just can’t take a hint.” I hissed and turned off my phone, so I wouldn’t have to look at the missed phone calls.“It took you long enough!” Dario smiled from a distance and held a bouquet of roses in his hands.“I’m sorry.” I apologized as I pushed
“Why are you with him? I mean, I know about your past so that we can skip that part—but how did the two of you get together?” Dario wondered. It was nice to know that the news about my past had even reached the other side of the country.“I’m with him because I fell in love with him.” I smiled as I
“No, I know—I’m just curious,” Dario smirked. “He’s an idiot who doesn’t realize how good he has it, but the two of you are still together—that’s great.” He shrugged his shoulders. “How would you know?” I chuckled.Dario was right. Christian was an idiot who did not realize how far I was willing to
“Is it really okay for me to visit him?” Dario asked. “I’m not that good with dead bodies.”“Hey, watch your words!” I scolded him. He almost sounded like Matteo. “Vince is not dead. He can probably hear us too—so watch your words around him.”“Got it, I’m sorry,” Dario spoke. “You’re scary when you
“Yes, obviously—I don’t really have much with hospitals, you know that.” I chuckled as my mind went to my delivery. “Yes, I know—you threatened all the poor nurses to give you a c-section.” Beau made fun of me while Dario gave me a questioning look.“You haven’t told me that story. Is that why you d
“So is my heart, we can all blame Enzo and Isobel, but he wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for me—so do you mind?” I asked, annoyed. “No, you do you.” Dario laughed and reached to grab my hand. “Matter of fact, I’ll read a verse and I’ll lead the prayer.”I was shocked but went along with him anyway a
“How do you even know? You’re unbelievable.” I chuckled in disbelief. “You’re okay with him making you out to be some kind of fool?” Dario scoffed. “Well yeah, what can I do? We fought about it. What’s done is done.”“Serena, the way he has you wrapped around his finger is so sad. You can do much be
After I got back to my parents' place, I gathered a lot of courage to unlock my phone, but somehow I managed to do it. Lita had told me that Christian reached out to me, and the poor woman seemed so happy, without knowing the real reason.I wasn’t stupid and knew he was probably calling because he k
Hey everyone,This is the end of Christian and Serena’s story. Thanks for following me on this journey, and please know I’m grateful for all of you.I remember freaking out over reaching 10K views, and somehow we ended up here. (!?) (Hopefully, more to come.)As I’m still new to this publishing styl
“Oh, right.” Stella clapped her hands when the girl finally released a loud cough. “I would like to introduce you to Oscar Morales’ daughter, Aria.” The Morales’ They were new in the city and led by Oscar Morales with the help of his mysterious only daughter, who I had never seen before. Today was
“Out and about.” I sighed, exhausted. “Drunk.” “Where’s your ex-fiancee?” Vince chortled, nudging Beau’s shoulder, and a sigh escaped from my brother’s lips. Not surprisingly, the relationship and engagement between my brother and Isobel didn’t last. All it took for him to break her heart was one
The children ran to their grandma and grabbed her hand. Besides Christian, the kids also listened to their grandma. Who wouldn’t? Cesca could be really scary if she wanted to. “The two of you should hurry as well. We’re all waiting!” “We’ll be there soon. Don’t worry.” Christian nagged his mom, kin
Three Years Later I squeezed the ball gown dress around my body, desperate to see my little bump. Promising to get married within three years while not being pregnant was a stupid thing to do. Especially when I had a husband who was a bit too obsessed with expanding our family as if a three-year-o
“What do you have to say?” I leaned against the railing. Christian reached for something behind his back and showed me a small red box while I was still confused about what was happening. Was he going to propose to me…again? He opened the box, revealing a rose gold diamond ring that suited my tast
“Right!” The woman agreed. “He can’t even take a compliment without doing that weird thing with his—“ “Eyes!” I finished her sentence, laughing. “The blinking thing?” “Yes!” “Wait—how do you know Dario?” The thought had suddenly occurred to me. By the looks of it, she knew him very well. A bit to
Hours had passed, but Christian had yet to move a muscle. Many had either left the graveside in tears or had stepped out to take a breather, but not Christian. “It’s okay to cry, Christian.” I wrapped my arm around him, leaning into his chest. “If you want to yell, bawl—punch someone…I’m here.” I s
“Thank you.” Cesca’s lips trembled in fear at the new nickname I had made up for her. “I appreciate that.” “Now that I know your mother will be in good hands, I can finally be at peace.” Lucio let out a heavy breath. “This is the happiest I’ve been in a while.” Those were the exact words he had sp
