"What did you hear?" I asked, my curiosity mixed with trepidation.

"They were discussing the couple they had tried to kill in that accident," he said, his words hanging heavily in the air as his mind replayed that day. "They believed that the couple had escaped and was on the run, but they found three dead bodies about 50 kilometers away from the accident site, among which there was a kid's body as well. My father wanted to tell me the truth to bring me out of the trauma and make me believe that my Rose is no more but my mother stopped him." His chin quivered.

"What?" It came out of my mouth instinctively. My eyes widened and I could see the pain in his eyes, which was bare.

"Yes, but I had to keep my mouth shut for my parents, which killed me even more from the inside."

He paused for a moment, as if contemplating the weight of his words and the impact they had on his life.

"Since then, the Vincenzo whom my Rose used to call Enzo died," he continued, his voice tinged with sadness.

    Roseline's POV"I don't remember you staring at me or me helping a boy like that," I said honestly, my memory failing to recall the specific incident he had described even when I tried to go back to that day."You know, you do acts of kindness in your daily life," he replied, his voice gentle and understanding. "It's not unusual for you to forget a single instance, but for me, witnessing such kindness in this cruel world was something extraordinary, something I couldn't forget."Maybe he is right! I always try to help as many people as I can on the street or wherever I go."A day before I visited your orphanage," he began, his voice tinged with vulnerability. "I had a heated argument with my grandfather. He was pressuring me to marry, believing that it would help me move on from my past. My family thought that Rose was no longer alive, and they wanted me to find someone else to love and forget about her. But deep down, I knew that nothing could make me forget my Rose."He paused for a

    "Come on," he said with a playful grin, ignoring my protests as he grabbed my hand and led me out of his office.His employees stared at him in surprise as we walked out. I am sure they must be surprised because they didn't have to see their boss leaving the office during working hours.Soon I found myself sitting in the car, and he played music. I was looking out of the window when his words interrupted my thoughts."Have this by the time we reach there," he proposed and I was amazed to find caramel in between his fingers.From where did he get it?Don't tell me he keeps the caramel in the car as well.I didn't want him to disturb me while driving so I just took it from him.

In the morning, you bandaged them, fed me when I didn't want to, and dressed me with your own will but now you are busy in eating yourself without caring about me," he complained."But it is you who said that you are fine and you don't need the bandage anymore." I stated what he said, trying to reason with him rationally.He is the one who removed the bandage and flexed his palms in front of me, telling me that he was fine. Why should I think about him before eating?"Okay, fine!" he conceded, not looking happy with my response.Before he could reach for the spoon, I took a piece of meat from my dish and moved it towards his lips. He glared at me for a moment but eventually opened his mouth to accept the bite.I was right—he is still a kid!A stubborn one...It seemed like he enjoyed testing my patience, but I found it endearing in a way.I was feeding him while ha

His touch had an immediate calming effect on me."Shhh," he whispered softly in my ear, his voice like a soothing melody. "Everything is fine. Nothing is going to happen to you."I clutched his shirt tightly in my fists, finding comfort in his embrace as he wrapped his other arm around my waist, guiding me forward.As he was with me I couldn't feel anything except his touch and his cologne filled my senses which relaxed me.

Her excitement didn't go unnoticed by the driver as well. He looked at her from the rear mirror and I gestured to him to slow down the speed of the car, allowing her to savor the magic of the moment. Her tiny eyes were shining and her face was glowing under the moonlight. While she was appreciating the beauty of the fireworks, she was expecting me to do the same, but I couldn't move my gaze away from her face.

I tried to shake it off, focusing on the day ahead instead.I left the bed at 7 because I had to reach the college by 9 and if Vincenzo went to the bathroom first, then he would make me late or I would have to use the other bathroom. I was already up and couldn't even close my eyes so I got up. I was going through the wardrobe, searching for the outfits I had bought last week with my hard-earned savings.

"No!" I shook my head. "I will not wear skirts." "Good," he started stroking once again but this time with his thumb as his finger made its way inside, "and you will always keep your hair open as I don't want anyone to see your neck, which is so tempting and only made for me." I nodded my head. Whatever could help me release is fine with me. With that being said, he once again hovered above me, his mouth capturing my nipples and sucking them while his fingers did their magic down there. And finally, I hit the climax; my head spun and I could see stars in broad daylight. He looked up and whe

I responded, bending down to his level.Our children had grown so fast, and it seemed like just yesterday when I was carrying them in my belly, experiencing their little kicks and wiggles. Soon, they will start going to school as well. "Chocolate," he requested, his tiny hand reaching out and his big, hopeful eyes locked onto mine. He was blinking up at me innocently with a pout on his lips. I couldn't help but chuckle at his irresistible charm. "But you already had some today, my love," I said gently, aware of the perils of too much chocolate for a young child. "You know that having too much can give you cavities in your teeth."He pouted a little more, his eyes welling up with tiny tears."Mommy, plea

Asking her to stay at her place, I went to attend the call but to my surprise, the loss of network didn't let me hear anything. I had to walk ahead and suddenly I was pushed inside a room. I wasn't expecting it so I fell inside and before I could react, I was locked inside. "Open the door." I banged but no one came.

I still couldn't believe that he was the same Kevin with whom I had shared so many laughs and giggles. I never knew that a devil was lurking behind that helping face. Vincenzo was already aware of his reality and this was the reason he was always asking me to keep my distance from him but I was so foolish that I never listened to him.

We had been at the bridal boutique for three hours, and while I was falling in love with every wedding gown they had, Vincenzo seemed unimpressed with any of them.He kept suggesting that I try on various dresses, but my energy was waning, and I didn't want to spoil the excitement of him seeing me in my wedding gown for the first time on our actual wedding day. So, I politely declined."Don't we have other designs?" he inquired, turning to the boutique attendant."Sir, if you're not satisfied with our current selection, you can choose from a virtual catalog, and we'll tailor it to your preferences," she suggested."That's a great idea!"
