My thoughts went to the poor guard who I had managed to deceive. I’m sure he only got off with a warning because Christian was cautious of my feelings. As two angels were sent from heaven, dad’s car pulled up on the driveway. He got out with Beau and the two made their way through the guards while
The old woman gave me a wink. “Siena should be with her mother.” “Should she?” Franco clicked his tongue. “Does she even have a car seat?” “Don’t you worry about a car seat, old man.” Dad defended me before I even got the chance. “You should worry about that lazy ass grandson of yours.” “Dad!” I
Christian “Hey, sleeping beauty!” Beau kicked Christian’s leg, waking him up. “We have to go. Dario is expecting you.” Startled, Christian opened his eyes, noticing he had fallen asleep in his chair while caring for Serena. “Where is she?” He asked, not wanting to lose her again. “Matteo took her
“I’m embarrassed to call you my son!” Berto tried grabbing his attention. The man smiled as Johnny stepped closer to look into his dad’s eyes. The rage in Johnny’s eyes had somehow managed to let Berto lower his head. Christian saw that as a sign of weakness. Berto began to realize he wasn’t the bo
Christian “Father, mother—what a pleasant surprise!” Berto said as the two followed his eyes. In the doorway stood the person he despised the most. Franco Lamberti. Just as Dario and Christian were about to step closer, Franco stuck out his hand, ordering them to stop. A shocked Maria made her
Just like Christian and Dario, Franco stayed behind—not wanting to take any part in this. “I’m so sorry little brother,” Berto said. “Please take me out of this misery so I can’t hurt anyone else—please.” Dario snickered. “Oh, don’t you worry about that.” “Come on, let’s give them a moment.” Fran
“I want to take Serena, Siena—and just go.” Christian sighed, confessing. “I just want to get away from here.” The thought of losing Serena made his head spin, and he did not want to worry about that ever again. “How many Fabios and Bertos do I have to experience until I really lose her one day?” C
The only thing holding him back was his friend’s presence. “I don’t have any preferences.” Christian shared, turning to Vince to include him. “I just want a healthy baby, and I wouldn’t mind having more daughters.” “How about you, Vince?” Serena leaned forward, searching for his eyes. “Don’t you w
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
