Roseline's POV"Ma'am, you are done," the attendants announced, taking a step back to admire their work.As soon as I stood up, I couldn't resist the curiosity to see myself. My heart raced with anticipation as I approached the mirror. When I finally gazed upon my reflection, my jaw dropped, and my eyes widened in sheer disbelief.I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It was me, but at the same time, it felt like an entirely different person staring back at me. The transformation was astonishing.Before this moment, I had rarely worn makeup, and the sight of myself in such an exquisite wedding dress, adorned with intricate makeup and hair styling, left me feeling completely transformed. It was as if I had stepped into a dream, and I marveled at the beautiful bride that I had become.For the first time in my life, I saw myself as truly beautiful. "My Princess," My father's voice gently called out, drawing my attention as he stepped into the room."Dad," I responded with a smile, my h

Roseline's POVI was packing a lunch box to have it together in the garden as planned by Enzo when Roderick came running to me. "Mommmyyyyyyy!"I turned to find my sweet three-year-old son standing there, his eyes filled with innocence and his lips forming a cute pout."Yes, baby?" 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

Roseline's POVI was making a ponytail of Lovey, who was chirping and giggling in my lap, when suddenly I heard loud voices coming from outside that shattered the otherwise peaceful and happy environment of the orphanage. The smile vanished from my lips and I couldn't stop myself from running out when I heard screams. "Stay out! It is our home." I saw a few kids pushing away the intruder, who was none other than Vincenzo De Luca himself, a business tycoon who comes among the first three richest people in the country. I gasped when the scene unfolding in front of me started making sense. He is the man who brought this land and now he wants to demolish this orphanage so that he can build a mall here. My palms curled into fists to my side, my jaw clenched tightly and blood rushed to my head when I saw his minions pushing away the kids as if they were made of rubber. "Ahhh!" they screamed in pain. Adrenaline rushed into me as an instinct reaction. I was about to lash out at them w

Roseline's POVIt took me a minute for the gravity of his words to sink in and my mind raced to catch up."Are you serious?" I finally managed to find my voice. The words came out in disbelief. I could once again feel the anger rushing through my veins. What kind of girl is he thinking of? "I don't go joking around. Kitten!" He retorted, his tone dripping with confidence. "Come to my place tonight; we will have a discussion there, along with coffee." He paused for a second. "And maybe other things." I could hear his sinister intentions in his voice. I gulped and drawing a deep breath, I stood straight. I know Liam wanted to say something but before he could, I managed to say,"There is no point in talking in private. They are my family. They would eventually come to know about it. You could talk to me here," I told him, clearly crossing my hand to my chest. "I am a very private and organized person. I don't think you would be pleased to hear in public what I want from you in retur

Vincenzo's POVName: RoselineNickname: RoseHeight: 5'2Weight: 105 lbs.Age: 26Eye color: chocolaty brown...My eyes quickly scanned over her details, already having explored her body more thoroughly than the information written on the paper.When I turned around and faced her for the first time, I couldn't believe that she had dared to interrupt me; her presence commanded attention from everyone around. Her curls were flowing down her back, and her chocolaty brown eyes were sparking like stars. She was exuding an aura of both beauty and fierceness. I know she was scared but she carried the façade of bravery, which impressed me even more.No one has dared to talk to me like that but she has! And I will make sure that she pays for it.Finally, my gaze settled on the specific point I was searching for.Relatives: NoneParental house: UnknownHometown: Unknown"What the hell is it?"

Roseline's POV"Sister, I have heard that we are going to be homeless," one of the kids asked, concern etched on his face.He is a teenager so he understands things better than other kids in this orphanage. The others gathered around, their innocent eyes filled with worry."Is this true, sister?""Where will we go then?""This is our home."The kids asked in their broken voices."This is our home and we will stay here only. Nothing is going to happen like that," I assured them.Emma was standing silently, as she still didn't think that we would be able to save this orphanage. But I am confident that today we are going to win the competition."It is a very important day for me and your sister Emma, Wish us luck."The children huddled around me, their small arms embracing me, showering me with their innocent love and wish for success. Their sweet voices filled the air with encouragement and hope.After smiling from ear to ear, I stood up. All I want is for these kids to stay happy.As w

Roseline's POV"And the winner is..."My eyes snapped open as he held on to a moment of silence. His lips parted with his gaze fixated on me as he announced the winner, as if he were waiting for me to open my eyes."None!""Huh?""What?""How is this possible?"I could hear the murmurings of the audience, which was as surprised as me. My body froze in its place, drained of energy. I can't even move my finger; my eyes are locked on him.Now, I am 100 percent sure that the winner was our venture and he has done this on purpose. He wants me to bend to his will and this seems the only way for him."Though the competition was fierce, none of the ventures were deemed worthy of the investment," he announced, disappointment lingering in the air. "But do not be disheartened. If you aspire to achieve something great in your life, you must learn to embrace failure as well. I encourage you to participate again and come up with even better ideas. Best of luck."With his final words, he walked off

Roseline's POVI was completing my assignment when suddenly I felt a kick. My fingers trembled as I tried to maintain my focus on the assignment, the cursor on my computer screen blinking in time with my racing heart.At first, I thought that it was normal as the due date was only two days ahead but then that sudden kick, strong and insistent, tore my attention away from the words on the screen. I gasped, my hands instinctively clutching my swollen belly. It had been a day filled with intermittent twinges, but this was different and sharper, and it frightened me."Ahhhhhh!" a loud, painful scream left my throat. The kicks became a relentless rhythm, punctuated by contractions that wrapped around me like vipers of pain. I cried out, a scream echoing through the room, the intensity of it threatening to consume me."Enzo!" Desperation took over as I called out for Vincenzo. My voice quivered with fear and pain as I said his name, the urgency in my tone carrying through the walls of the
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 164. At her feet
Roseline's POVWith only one month left until our babies would enter this world, Vincenzo and I were bursting with anticipation. Every day brought us closer to the moment we had been eagerly awaiting.Since the traumatic incident, I have become quite the homebody, rarely venturing outside except for my regular checkups. I clung to Vincenzo's side, feeling safest in his presence, and he never left my side for a moment.Most of my days were spent in a gentle cycle of sleep and study. The fatigue that accompanied this stage of pregnancy often left me too tired to focus on our startup project, much less anything else. I marveled at how some pregnant women managed to stay perpetually excited and energetic, while I struggled to find the motivation to even comb my hair.My eyes remained closed, and I was still lying in my comfortable cocoon when I felt a gentle hand on my head. An immediate sense of warmth and comfort washed over me, and a wide, contented smile spread across my lips.Vincenz

Roseline's POVBeepBeepBeepBefore I could even flutter my eyes open, a rhythmic beeping sound reached my ears, a reassuring signal that I was in a hospital. Memories of the terrifying events leading up to my loss of consciousness played like a haunting reel in my mind.My initial instinct was to protect my unborn babies. My hands instinctively reached for my stomach, and a wave of relief washed over me as I felt the reassuring presence of my baby bump."Rose." Vincenzo's voice broke through the haze as he rushed to my side, settling into a chair beside my hospital bed. His gentle hand began to caress my head, offering a soothing touch."Vincenzo, my babies?" I managed to voice my primary concern."They are fine," he breathed out, nodding reassuringly. His words eased the immense worry that had gripped me."How are you feeling?" he inquired, genuine concern etched on his face."I am fine," I assured him.My trembling hands reached out, and I gently enclosed his palm within mine, squ

Vincenzo's POVI was with Roseline, selecting a dress, when I got an important call. As much as I didn't want to leave her alone, I had to attend the call as well. 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. Locked inside the dimly lit room, anxiety gripped my chest as I desperately tried to break free. The sound of my fist pounding against the solid door echoed through the space, but there was no response from the other side. I couldn't even see the face of the man who pushed me inside. But I am sure about one thing: everything is planned. I couldn't shake the feeling that something sinister was afoot, and my mind raced with thoughts of Roseline alone and vulnerable. "My men took about twenty minutes to reac
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 161. Dangerous infatuation
Fear and confusion swirled within me as Kevin drove the car, leaving me paralyzed with disbelief. The Kevin I had known, the one who had shared laughter and joy with me, now seemed like a completely different person—a dark and dangerous one.I struggled a bit more but I sat back when I knew that there was no way out of this. I was already bone tired and I thought twice about keeping my energy reserved to fight with him once I was out of this car. 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. I kept on looking out, trying to memorize the way so that I could run back when I got a chance to escape him. After what felt like an hour, he finally applied the brake. He came out and when he opened my si

Roseline's POV"You really don't have a good collection," Vincenzo remarked, his voice tinged with frustration.I was getting tired, to be honest. 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!" Vincenzo's eyes lit up with excitement. "Why didn't you mention that earlier? I want something that can match the beauty of my wife."The boutique attendant glanced at me, and I couldn't help but feel like a
