- Dom's Point of View -
Travis Salvatore wins Championship Cup at Formula-E Rome
It was the headline of an Italian news magazine. I didn't read whatever was there but I focused on the precious photograph of my Sapphire and I after the race. She looked so small in my arms. It's a beautiful moment caught on camera. Something I'd frame on our wall.
I glanced back in our bed where she's sleeping. My beautiful angel was fast asleep on our bed, tired. After all, we had a long night. The way she moaned my name echoed through my mind as the golden sun rose here in St. Regis. Finally, I'm back in Italy after years...
"Dom?" I heard an angel call. Sapphire rose up from the sheets, looking around.
"Yes, baby?"
Her ocean eyes glanced at me. She looked like a lost kitten, looking for h

[Dom's POV | Mature Content]The sweeping sound of water rushing through was our music. Golden sunlight glimmered on us as I sat against a tree, softly caressing Sapph’s auburn curls. She laid against my chest, watching the river run through the rocks. Deep in the woods, you can find a river path.

PrologueIt is often said that, there is the calm before the storm.The ice-cold air before the raging fire. The echoing laugh before the sob-filled mourning. The unbearable pain before the satisfying pleasure. The high flight before the big fall. The unstoppable fight before the wavering surrender.And life...it is the best matchmaker of it all. Life merges opposites to be one successful pair. Just like two magnets...no matter how hard you try to put one away from the other, they keep finding their way to go back to each other. No matter how far the distance is stretched.

Smile"What is it?"Dom's deep baritone voice rang through Sapphire's ears, sending shivers up to her spine. She can't help but look at the woman behind him. The blonde woman was running her hand up and down Dom's arm, making the innocent Vazquez uncomfortable.Sapphire looked up to meet the hypnotizing eyes of Dom. It took her a few seconds before she came back to her senses."Papa's inviting you for dinner." She said in a soft voice and looked away. She tried to shift her gaz

Late- Sapphire's Point of View -"Ah, Dom! So good to see you again!" Papa gave out a joyous laugh.I went to the kitchen and set up the table for us. While Papa was busy putting the food on the table, Dom sat on the old maroon couch. Our living room is just connected to the kitchen and dining area, making his presence known to everyone inside."Thanks for inviting me tonight, sir." I glanced at Dom, only to see him looking at me. I immediately looked away from his in

KidOnce again, we were walking towards the trail that leads to home. It was a quiet walk, and Dom didn't say anything else after we closed the store. I bid goodbye to Caleb earlier and that was it. Silence reigned the path, my heart thumped twice as hard, and coldness smothered the air yet again.And the icy ambiance didn't come from the soft wind blowing through the fields.I pushed some of the stray strands from my auburn hair behind my ear and continued the small journey. I can already see our small and old house. It's painted white on the outside, with a dusky grey roof. It's small

Earlier"Sapphire!"I was feeding some of our chickens in the backyard. There were a total of six chickens, but my favorite is the white feathered hen. I named her Callie. I softly stroked Callie's round and dull feathers when a familiar voice called my name. I stood up from my crouching position and faced Caleb– who is now approaching me."Caleb? What are you doing here? Don't you have school?" Question after question, my eyebrows furrowed at his unexpected arrival. It was Monday, and I'm sure he has school on weekdays.

BusinessAfter breakfast, I sat in front of our white porch while waiting for Dom. I was wearing my favorite yellow floral dress which I got from my mother's wardrobe. The fabric conditioner made it smell like vanilla and lavender. I paired it along with my brown boots. I didn't like wearing sandals, even though I have a pair. It just makes me uncomfortable when my toes touch the soil, especially when it's muddy sometimes.From the trail in front, I saw a shiny red pick-up truck approaching. It's him.He stopped the truck in front of the house and went out.

My Sweet Surrender (Aftermath Series #1) Chapter 50: RACE COMPETITION
Race CompetitionThe chopper landed in a helipad in the East River. The water made ripples as the wind from the helicopter blew. I saw a lot of men in black surround the port. We passed them as Dom led me to his black SUV."How did you find me?" I asked in a low voice, when we were finally alone in the car."Mat was there, looking for Lucy Florence. He found you lurking around the fields of Georgebury instead." He drove past the wild streets full of lights and people. I didn't think I would miss New York for a bit, but there's something about its liveliness that I'd always look for.

My body shook uncontrollably because of all the suddenness, but comfort warmed me when the two men helped me out of the dark room."Let's get you out of here, ma'am."They held my arm and aided me in walking because my ankle is still injured. Every step was pain, but I just imagined it as one step closer to freedom. One step closer to Dom. I just wanna see him, like I'd be safe once I'm in hi

RansomWarning: Mentions of sexual abuse, kidnapping, vulgar words, and rape.I was awoken by a smoke of drowsiness floating through my nose, eyes, and ears. Dizziness circled around my senses as my stomach grumbled in a mix of hunger and pain. I don't like this feeling at all. I feel like puking my insides out. My body felt sore for what seems like hours of sitting and my hands were tied on my back with thick layers of rope. My legs too were tied and I had no shoes on.What happened? Where am I?Dark

We were going to their family's ancestral mansion in New York. We had extra security especially after what happened in Dubai. The thought still gives me shivers."This is now my normal life, Dom."He sighed as the driver drove to a farther part of the city. "You know, you're the only one who calls me that now. I like it."What he

BirthdayTRIGGER WARNING: sexual harassment and mentions of rape."Are your things already packed?" Dom asked as I was putting on the Sapphire stone ring on my left hand. I stared as it glimmered against the bright soulful sun of Manhattan."Yes, I'm all prepared..." I mumbled. I felt Dom plant a soft kiss on top of my head before doing his final rituals. We're going to the airport today to travel to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I haven't been there yet. Heck, I haven't even rode an airplane yet or went to an airport. It's a bit frightening for me, but only a bit...because I know Dom will be there.
