Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 92. Ways to find his lost love
Vincenzo's POV"Actually," she gulped, taking a few seconds before opening up, "you are right, there is a very big reason behind her getting scared of the fire. When she was a kid, she lost."But before she could complete herself, the doctor interrupted her."Mr. Luca"My attention completely diverted to the doctor, as first I wanted to know how was. My heart raced with concern, desperate to know how Rose was faring."How is she?" I asked him, and Emma and Kevin stood behind me."She is fine for now but in the future, you have to take care that she doesn't get panic attacks because it could be really dangerous for her medical condition." The doctor's expression is soft and he is looking at the tension in the year.His words hit me hard, and I understood what he meant by "medical condition". I told the doctor that medicines are working very little on her body and he has told me that soon we will need bone marrow and I am not sure from where we are going to arrange it.The doctor contin
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 93. Caught in an awkward situation
Vincenzo's POVI looked after her the whole night while she slept. In the morning, the doctor discharged her and I asked him to take her blood samples again because it was the toughest task to bring her to the hospital for the test. Back at home, we went to our room. I guided her to sit on the bed while I excused myself from my study. There, I needed to go through the documents again to understand more about Rose's past and her age.My mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Rose's past and the traumatic event that had caused her pyrophobia. She was 9 when I lost her and according to that, she must be 24 on the current day. The realization weighed heavily on my heart, knowing that I had lost so many precious years with her—the days that I could have cherished with her. "Ahhh!" a painful yelp escaped my lips as I tried to open the drawer. Despite the agony, I refused to let it deter me. I had endured pain before, and I was not one to succumb to weakness.It wasn't the first time I fac
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 94. A hard nut to crack
Roseline's POVAbruptly, I stood up and decided to make my way out of the closet before things became even more awkward.As I was about to step out of his closet, his feet came between us, halting me in my tracks. My heart raced, and I felt a rush of nervousness flood over me.My breath hitched in my throat and all the heat rushed to my cheeks in anticipation of what he might ask next.What if he asked for exactly what I was thinking?I can't!I have never and I will never!I gulped hard and slowly turned my head, only to find him holding one of the exquisite watches from his collection, silently asking me to fasten it around his wrist.Ohh!I am overthinking now!I need holy water to clear my mind, which has become so dirty. Earlier, these thoughts used to never enter my life and now everything I think is at a different tangent. I am surprised by my own behavior.Taking the watch from him, I gently locked it around his wrist, trying to keep my composure despite the fluttering in my h
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 95. Tending wounds
Placing the spoon aside and folding my arms on the table, I leaned forward to keep my word."OK, if you don't want to have anything, that's fine. But I won't have breakfast alone; I don't like eating by myself. I was raised in an orphanage where all the kids used to eat together, so I am used to sharing meals with others." I stated when I was dying out of hunger.Mentally, I prayed for him to change his mind and have the food but he didn't respond. I gulped hard; if he didn't have anything, then I was not sure about him but I would die of hunger.And then it clicked in! His trigger point. I knew I was playing with fire, something I wasn't particularly skilled at, but I felt like I had no other choice but to break through the walls he had built around himself, and the best way to do it was by attacking his weakness.With a determined smile hidden behind my calm exterior, I picked up the plate of breakfast once again, which caught his attention as I could see one of his twitches."Since
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 96. Kiss to shut her mouth
He pressed his lips against mine so tightly that I couldn't move them. It was quite clear that he wanted to stop me from saying that word. After what felt like an eternity, he finally pulled his lips away, but his face was still inches from mine. The intensity in his eyes was almost overwhelming, and I could feel the warmth of his breath on my skin. "Don't say such words or I will kiss you until your lips swell and you can't move them to say anything," he murmured against my lips. I was taken aback by his words, a mix of surprise and delight washing over me. But I was glad that finally he decided to break his silence only to threaten me and for the first time, his warning felt sweet. My heart flushed with emotion, realizing that his way of caring was completely different from anyone I had known before. He may not have expressed it in conventional ways, but his actions spoke volumes. Unconsciously, I started chewing on my lower lip, a habit I had whenever I was feeling overwhel
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 97. Does he have ten brains?
Roseline's POVI was awestruck when his car stopped in front of his company. I could neither gulp nor blink as I stared at the colossal structure before me. The building was so immense that my eyes couldn't even reach its peak. It exuded an air of grandeur and prosperity that left me feeling small and insignificant in comparison.I could not even imagine earning so much money in my entire life. There is no doubt that he could buy anyone on this earth with just a flick of his finger. "Don't be too overwhelmed," he said, his voice reassuring. "Everyone starts somewhere, and success is never without its challenges."His words snapped me out of my world, and I felt my cheeks turning red at the realization that he had caught me staring at his building as if I had never seen such a magnificent structure before."Shall we?" he asked, breaking the awkward moment, and I nodded in response.As the driver opened the door, we stepped out, and I followed him closely, like his shadow.

Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 98. Her emotional outburst
Roseline's POVThe man who entered seemed surprised to find me there, and his eyes immediately glanced at the photograph I was just about to pick up.Feeling an inexplicable fear, I shivered slightly and stood up slowly, my feet wobbly and my head going dizzy. "Who are you?" he demanded as he stepped inside. "And how dare you enter the boss' cabin when he is not here? Not to mention touching his things!""I..." I don't know why I was feeling so scared of him that nothing came out of my mouth. I tried to speak, but fear seemed to choke my words, leaving me speechless.His presence made my head spin, clouding my thoughts and making it difficult to think clearly."Ah, I understand now," he said, tilting his head. "You must be one of those new interns they recently hired, right?""No, actually...""I got you," he interrupted before I could even say something, "but you know what? Your tricks are not going to work here. I could clearly understand why are you here. I know girls like you."
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 99. Her pain and solace
Roseline's POVMy body froze for a second when he engulfed me in a tight hug. It came totally unexpectedly. I couldn't believe that he did it. Before this, he had always touched me this way only if he needed my body, only seeking physical satisfaction from it, only when he desired it. But today, everything felt different.The hug was not for him or for his satisfaction, but it was for me—to comfort me, to make me feel protected, to assure me that I was not alone. As he held me close, my ear pressing against his chest, I could hear his heart pounding loudly. His heart never thumps so loudly, even in the most intimate moments. It surprised me to realize that he was scared too, perhaps frightened by the intensity of my emotions or scared for me to do something in the confinement of the four walls. His vulnerability softened my heart even more, and the floodgates of my tears opened again, and I started crying hysterically. My sobs were silenced by his chest a bit, and my fists tightly
