Sophia's POV

The thunder rumbles continuously, jolting me out of bed in panic. This is the third time tonight. The endless crashing of the thunder keeps me on edge.

I can’t stand being alone in this cold room anymore.

Back home, when it stormed and thundered, I would always run to my parents' room. If I didn't want to disturb them, I would take comfort in Liam’s presence.

That idiot.

Right now, I can't stand him. How could he betray me like that with Brenda, just because she seduced him?

Twice. He let her do that to him, and now he expects me to forgive him? As if I would forget all that.

Would he even be calling me now if I hadn't married someone like Dante? Would he have tried to meet me?

Even though my heart still races for him, I know the best way to erase all those memories is to make new ones with someone else. It's going to be hard, but I'm determined to do it. I’ll try to move on. He’s not worth it.

I rush out of my bedroom and decide to call for help. I can't sleep here alon

    Dante's POVI felt a shiver run through me as she spoke. I never thought I'd see her here, in my room of all places. This was the last thing I expected.The pounding headache, the weight of my worries, and the gloomy weather outside weren't making anything easier.I walked into the room with my eyes closed, hoping everything would return to normal, like before. Back when life felt simple, when I could always turn to Mom for guidance and everything would somehow work itself out. Most of my problems were tied to my business, and she'd always be there, ready to help.There were times I even went to Dad for advice, but I'd usually end up getting help through Mom. She's been my support, my mentor. A woman with a heart of gold.So, why is Sophia here? I wondered to myself, shaking off my thoughts as she waved a hand in front of me to snap me back to reality.The headache, no doubt, was from the stress and the constant thinking. I was supposed to take a break, maybe even go on vacation with

    Sophia's POVDante is good-looking but dumb.When I said we should grant his mother's wish, I didn’t mean having sex, but the horrified look on his face said it all. That was his own interpretation of my statement.I lived with Liam, yet I never had sex with him because I wasn’t ready. What then would make me have sex with Dante, whom I’m not even attracted to?Nothing."I’m not talking about sex, silly," I rushed forward toward him.He sighed with relief and finally nodded."Why would you even think of that? You’re not even my type," I blurted out before I could stop myself. He didn’t respond, and I bit my lip, regretting saying that. "Besides, it’s against the contract…""You’re not my type either," he brushed past me to the bathroom. I thought he was going to take a bath, but a second later, he came out with a wet face.Well, now we’re even. He’s not my type, and I’m not his type."Won’t you ask me what I meant?" I followed him as he walked to the bed.He slouched onto the bed. "Wh

She’s the exception.I never thought I could keep my temper in check around anyone, but Sophia somehow makes me the most patient man alive.How can I stay arrogant when she leaves no room for it?

    Dante's POVWe left the mansion without speaking to Mother. She didn’t even glance at me but was all smiles with Sophia.I thought having Sophia talk to her for me would help.

But how can I help her if she won’t talk to me? We need to discuss her feelings, her fears. I have to convince her to keep up the treatment.She can’t give up. She’s the one who taught me never to give up. How could she abandon the fight when she still has a chance?What puzzles me more is that Father isn’t saying anything.

    Dante’s POVSophia remains a mystery I can’t seem to solve. One moment, she’s loud and argumentative, making my blood boil, and the next, she’s indifferent, acting as if nothing in the world matters.I can’t figure out if she truly loved her ex. She doesn’t seem like someone who can love deeply or someone who’s heartbroken.What do I know about love anyway? Except for one thing—my mother.She taught me what love really means. True, pure love is always unconditional. She made me see that there are many types of love, each coming from different places. Lust and attraction can lead you to the door of love, but they can also be easily confused with it.For most of my life, all I’ve felt for women was lust. They satisfied my desires, nothing more.There was a time when partying was my life. Those were the reckless years—when I was the rebel, the irresponsible teenager. Back then, all I wanted was to explore the things my mother warned me about and those she never mentioned.I spent my night

    Sophia's POVThat idiot is with Clara.He lied to me. He said they weren’t dating. He told me he’d stopped talking to her, yet here they are, together at a club, holding hands.What am I supposed to think? Am I supposed to believe they just ran into each other by coincidence?Maybe I’m the fool here.Clara, Liam, and I don’t usually go to the same clubs, and Cart’s Club is one of those random spots we rarely visit. We’ve only been there once. Normally, we stick to our regular spot downtown, so it didn’t even occur to me that I might run into them there.Tonight, I was only trying to cheer Dante up, to distract him from his mother’s illness. I thought he’d appreciate the effort. I even hoped he’d play along and act sweet when I called out their names. But no, he didn’t. He just stood there. Yet I’m always the one making this charade look real.What an asshole. We shouldn’t have gone to the party in the first place.As soon as we step out of the car and he enters the mansion gate, it sta

    Dante's POVFor the first time in years, my conscience is judging me for how I acted toward Sophia’s accusation last night. She clearly expected something different from me, and I let her down.I shouldn’t feel bad for her—she isn’t exactly a saint—but somehow, I can’t shake off the guilt. She was right.I am selfish. She helped me, and yet it didn’t even cross my mind to help her make her ex-boyfriend jealous, to make him realize what he lost.Maybe that’s because I honestly think losing her might have been the best thing for him. She’s a handful, full of trouble, and no man in his right mind would want to be with her.At least, that’s what I thought.But now that I think about it, it’s obvious they loved each other, despite her flaws. Their breakup wasn’t because of who she is—it was because he cheated.Why do men cheat?The question drags me down memory lane. I sigh as I sit in the back of the car, a box in my hands.I’m heading home.I bought Sophia a gift to apologize for what I

    Sophia's POVLiam is blackmailing me into having lunch with him because I accidentally bumped into his car. I’ve already spent two hours with him, and it's almost noon.Determined to annoy me, he told me to take his car to the mechanic. Fortunately, I found some notes in Dante's car, and after getting the car fixed, Liam demanded that we have lunch together.I know I shouldn't be agreeing to have lunch with my ex-boyfriend. I’m supposed to despise him, especially after everything he did to hurt Dante, but Liam feels like a stranger now. I guess my curiosity got the best of me."You still look beautiful," he says, making me pull the straw away from my mouth as I stare at him.I didn’t have breakfast before heading out, and by the time we were done with his car, my stomach was already rumbling, which is why he suggested we grab lunch nearby.With a smug grin, I respond, "Just like Clara."He turns away, muttering under his breath.

    Dante’s POVJohn honks the horn again, the sound growing more irritating with each second. I’m about to lose my patience when I wave for him to stop. I get out of the car and look around, my arms crossed.Aren’t they home?I walk toward the gate, relieved to see it’s not locked. I push it open, confirming my suspicion. I glance back at John, who shakes his head.Apparently, they no longer have guards or even a gateman. They should’ve at least locked the gate.I signal for John to wait outside while I open the gate and step inside. The place is a mess. The flowers are wilting, probably because the gardener’s been let go. The courtyard looks neglected, and I can’t help but wonder if this is part of Sophia’s worries for her parents.I push aside the disarray and head for the front door, hands tucked in my pockets.This is the third time I’ve come here. The first time, John honked the horn for several minutes, hoping someone would answer the door, but there was no response.The second tim

    Sophia’s POVDante’s ex-girlfriend was the third woman I saw alongside Liam and Clara the other day, the one from the nightmare. I couldn’t place her at the time, but today, I recognize her more clearly. Her face, the way she carried herself—it’s all too familiar. That’s not what’s bothering me, though. What confuses me is why she’s there with Liam and Clara, and why she keeps appearing in my dreams. Who is she to Liam? Does she know Clara too?Summoning the strength to get out of bed, I do so, replaying what happened last night at the restaurant. It nearly ended in disaster because of Liam and that woman showing up, which set Dante off. I still don’t understand why Dante was so angry with Liam or why that woman was with him.I’m left wondering about everything—why Dante hasn’t made an effort to clear up my confusion. Is he waiting for me to demand answers? Why did he ignore my question when I asked who she was last night? Is he ashamed to admit she’s his ex? What exactly went down be

It calms me, and for a moment, all I can do is stare at her hands, wishing they'd stay like this forever."Liam, stop!" Sophia's voice pulls me out of my thoughts. Liam is rushing toward me, but she shoves him back, causing him to fall on his backside.

    Sophia's POVThis must be one of his girlfriends—another woman he might try to make his sex partner.She’s a model type, with long legs and a curvy shape. I have long legs too, and I’m curvy, but her outfit is on another level. It reminds me how I’ve been neglecting the perks of being married to a billionaire.Her jewelry is from one of New York’s top stores, and that handbag? Definitely a designer piece.I had completely forgotten about Liam until he cleared his throat, pulling my attention back to him. I was surprised to see him, but not as shocked as seeing him with yet another woman.I always expect to see him with Clara now and then. I keep hoping they’re together, somehow making my breakup worthwhile, but from the looks of it, they aren’t.Either Clara has already dumped him, or he never loved her the way he loved me.That pain strikes again—the same old ache in my heart.

Just the other day, I was pumped about the idea of us getting closer, but now, after asking for her permission, the excitement has completely faded.What’s going on with me?I watch as her eyes widen in surprise. Honestly, I’m just as taken aback. I didn’t mean to ask her that—it just slipped out, but something deep inside me made me say it.Something I shouldn’t have said. Something that feels wrong.“What?!” she asks, repeating herself for what seems like the tenth time.I shrug, just as confused as she is. I don’t know why I said that either.Then, I chuckle, trying to defuse the tension, and see her roll her eyes at me before letting out a long sigh. “You’re kidding, right?”I shrug again, this time with no idea what I’m doing.She hisses out of frustration, and

Before I even realize it, I'm running into his arms.We’re already out of the car, but I can’t believe my eyes. I needed to step out quickly to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.Christine stands before me, looking effortlessly handsome in a black cotton jacket and a white-purple shirt. He pairs it with blue-purple trousers and a brown leather belt.His matching black sneakers complete the look. His short wavy black hair perfectly complements his outfit, and as he slides the guitar across his body, I can barely breathe.I realize I’m still in Dante’s arms, and I quickly pull away with a nervous laugh.I have no idea how Dante knew about my obsession with Christine’s music, but whatever he did to make this happen, I’m grateful.I’ve always admired Christine from a distance, watching him on TV.
