I frowned at his weird question. “Do you want to smell?” Beau stepped back. “N-no, I’m good. Thank you.” He blushed. “What now?” I put the test on the cabinet and sank to the floor while Beau did the same. “Now we wait.” Only a few minutes had passed, but it felt like forever. The last time I wai
“So, how do I look?” Carmen showed off her dress. It was another boring day in the Alfonso household, with the only one keeping me company being my sister as Siena was asleep. “Cute.” I touched the ends of her dress. “So what are you doing again?” “I have a date with Kenzo?” Carmen smiled, proudly
“Why are you crying?” Christian parked the car. I tried to end my tears by taking a deep breath, and wiped eyes, but they just wouldn’t stop. “I’m sorry, I’m a mess.” “Don’t worry about it.” Christian turned to look at me. He brought his finger to my eyes and wiped away my remaining tears. “Are yo
“Don’t say that. Vince will walk.” Christian pressed a kiss against his forehead. “He will be okay.” “Of course he will.” I smiled at his unexpected positivity. “There’s no reason for him not to walk, so don’t you worry about that,” Ramiro informed us. Vince’s breathing got heavier by the second,
Serena “Can I hold her?” Vince used all of his strength to sit up straight. A few days had passed, and surprisingly enough, he was making quick progress. That was the reason why I had decided to let him meet Siena officially. I placed Siena in his arms and watched as Siena snuggled against him. “I
“Yes, I know.” Vince shrugged. A slight smirk appeared on his lips. “I’m rooting for you, always have.” “Is that so?” “Yes,” Vince spoke. “And I know he’s done some stupid stuff, but I’ve never seen him this happy before—and he really does love you.” “Does he really?” I asked doubtfully. Vince hu
“I need you to find a way to set up a meeting with Berto,” Christian spoke to my surprise. Marc seemed just as confused as I was and was probably waiting for Christian to tell him it was all a joke—but it wasn’t. “Christian…” Marc began. “I know you want to spend some time with Vince, but we can’t
I mimicked Christian’s words and threw my hands over his shoulders. “Do you see what I have to deal with?” Christian looked at Marc. “It’s like I have to take care of two babies.” Soon to be three. Even though he said it in a joking matter, I couldn’t help but think there might’ve been some truth
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
