"Why are you fidgeting?"

"I'm not nervous."

"You should be since you won't sleep peacefully for the next eighteen years" Nevio replies patting my back. Zelda went into labor two hours ago and she will be giving birth any time now. I'm happy, confused, nervous, sick. All those emotions rolled into one. That's internal though, I'm hoping that on the outside I look calm.

The past few months have helped me put things into perspective. Whether I like it or not, I'm going to be a father. Nev insisted on getting a DNA test but at this point, I don't think it matters. I've already made peace with the fact that I am the father of that child.

"What's taking so long? How hard is it to give birth to a child?"

"Imagine pushing the head and shoulders of a tiny human out of your butthole"

"What the fuck Nev?" Sometimes I'm not sure if he's a hundred percent sane.

"You were being an insensitive asshole. That baby will come out when it wants to come out. Your duty is to wait for it and do

    I don't know how long we've been driving but I look up when the car stops. Fabian gets out and opens the door for me. I step out looking around. "What are we doing here?" We are on the far end of my property. I can see the mansion from here. When I first bought it, I also acquired the surrounding land as a precaution, ensuring I could spot any approaching enemies. "I want to show you something," he says walking ahead. Fabian has been working for me for a long time so I follow him knowing he's not planning on killing me and dumping my body somewhere around here. He's the most loyal man I have. I would go as far as to say I trust him more than I trust Nev who is like a brother to me. We walk for five minutes then I suddenly stop when I spy what's ahead of us. As if he has eyes on the back of his head and can see me, he explains "I thought one day you might need it to remember him" I suck in a deep shaky breath. Despite everything, he remembered to build a tombstone for the child we

    "Will you be staying here? Zelda is having a baby and I can't wait to meet him. We already decorated the room, do you want to see it?" Tommaso says. He's just a kid so he has no idea how much his words hurt. Are they using the same room my baby was supposed to use? I can't do this. Coming here was a mistake. "Let me talk to her first Tommaso. You should go with Fabian to see the baby" "Really? I hope it's a girl so she will be as pretty as Zia" he says skipping out and I want to follow him. Why did I let Violetta convince me to come here? She pleaded, saying Nev wouldn't let her see Tommaso. I decided to help her because I know what it feels like to grow up without a mother. If Ornella had come to see me earlier, I would have been more accepting of her. However angry Nev is, he has no right to keep Tommaso's mother away from him. He should let him decide whether he wants to build a relationship with her or not. Not that any of this concerns me in any way. It's their life. But m

    "Where is she? Has she left? Dammit Cris, what did you tell her?" "Nothing. She remembers everything" Nev nods as if that makes sense. And maybe it does. I knew once Carina got her memories back she'd hate me. There was a time when I didn't care about what she felt because I was consumed by anger. Now that the anger is gone, I know what Nev meant when he said I'd regret it someday. Seeing her turn to Marco like that felt like my heart was being sliced into two. She should be seeking solace in my arms, not his. I should be the one she turns to. But I screwed everything up and sent her to another man. Fuck, seeing Leone's grave left me raw. Carina's presence felt like a balm until she launched herself into Marco's arms. I'm exhausted and ready for this day to be over. "She hates you, doesn't she? It's to be expected. You left her and got another woman pregnant. I'd hate you too if I was her" Not helping. "Go away Nev, I want to be alone" "I'm sorry to disappoint you bro but

    "Hi, sexy. Looking good today" "Do you mean to say there are days I look bad?" Claudia licks her lips in a sensual way "I bet you taste good too" "I'm also married so find someone else" "What a loss for us," she says swinging her hips harder than necessary. She's one of the girls I recently rescued from a trafficking house. Aside from being pretty, she's also a terrible flirt. I've kept Marianna from coming here because I know they won't get along. One look and she'd be ordering me to take her somewhere else. As she had with all the other girls she considered a threat. They were either paid off handsomely or sent to another establishment to work there. When I asked if she thought I would cheat on her with any of them, she said she trusted me but I'm a human being and sooner or later, one of them might tempt me. I wasn't angry since I knew what she meant. I don't like seeing other men around her. Quite the pair we make. The thought of that makes me smile. After I left the po

    "I like it when you take control but..." "Nothing. Later when we're home, you can do whatever you want to me. Right now we have to be quick because I have a meeting with a supplier" "Oh" she breathes and I can't tell if it's a reply or if it's because I just swiped my finger along her. Damn it, I wish I could get on my knees and taste her. My tongue is itching to glide along her soft, wet folds, and feel her coming inside my mouth. Later, I promise to do that later. Right now, I drop butterfly kisses along her neck, one hand caressing her breast while the other one is probing her, getting her ready for me. "I love your body, Anna. It was made for me" I whisper nibbling on her earlobe. She sighs, falling back against me. It took a while to convince her I hadn't fallen in love with Aurora. As a cop, I learned how to separate my feelings from my job. I could sleep with a hundred other women and not feel a thing towards any of them. Because it's just a job. I don't think she will e

    Damiano has a weakness when it comes to lying. If he does it perfectly, I know he's hiding something. When I asked him about the supplier, he said the guy was giving him coffee. Great lie for someone who doesn't pay attention to details. I like the shops, sometimes even keep an eye on them because Carina started them. It took a lot of persuasion for Paulo to tell me that my sister has always wanted to own her own coffee shop. So naturally, I wanted to look out for her business in case she ever decided to come back. I didn't want her to be disappointed that we ran it to the ground and honestly, at first I didn't believe Damiano would know anything about running a business. That's why I hang around a lot. In the process, I found out that the coffee we serve is imported. Mainly from Kenya and Brazil. They're delivered at the end of every month. Which was a week ago. Now I know he would never cheat on me. Unlike his asshole father, he has morals. I would go as far as to say Fabrizia ra

    Yawning, I stretch before getting out of bed. It's sunny today. Just my kind of day. While I'm taking a shower, I wonder what I should do. Normally I stay inside cleaning up the place, doing laundry, binge-watching movies, and doing anything that will keep me from going outside and socializing with other people. But I'm tired of staying at home. This isn't really who I am. I love shopping, going to clubs, traveling, outdoor activities. Locking myself up has started to suffocate me. Living like this is what I used to hate the most. However, now that I'm free, I find myself doing it and I hate it. I don't want this. I can't live like this forever. I grieved for my baby and I will forever continue to do so but I'm done putting my life on hold. After the breakdown I had that day at Cris's place, I decided to put some distance between us. I couldn't risk bumping into him ever again, so I left the country. What is the best place to start over? In the city that never sleeps. New Y

    After I'm done with breakfast, Ryan hands me a piece of paper on my way out. This reminds me I have to get a new phone. Aside from Marco, I don't have anyone else to talk to. And being phoneless comes in handy when men try to hit on me. My generic reply these days is, "I lost my phone and I'm in the process of replacing it." The clever ones get the hint and the persistent ones give me their business cards. Although, if Giovanni or anyone wants to find me, it wouldn't be that hard. I understand how powerful my family is. It's worse now that I have Damiano as a brother-in-law. He used to be a cop so he definitely knows people who can help him easily find me. I'm just hoping they'll leave me alone since there is nothing for me back there. Deciding to get a phone another day, I look at the paper Ryan gave me. The word observatory stands out the most. One world observatory. It sounds boring. I'll start there and then figure out my next destination. When I arrive, I understand why Rya

    "Can you stop calling? I've already told you that I'm not leaving her""Why not? You can find someone better. I bumped into Mrs Perella, you know the politician? And she told me her daughter..."I hang up and block her number. My mother has changed but I can't say I'm surprised. Her dislike towards Marianna doubled ever since she came to live with us and she tried to set me up with other women when she heard me lashing out at her. Because I was just lashing out when I told her we were over.Aurelia's death was a shock to me. In my eyes, she was still a child who was grieving the only family she had. Shooting Carina was a mistake but I thought letting her live would help her repent. I also felt responsible for dragging Aurora back. Truth is, she didn't want to go back. She'd saved up enough money and wanted to leave with Aurelia but because of my investigation, I convinced her coming back was the right thing to do.I told her Lombardi would never let her go and the only way she could be

    Marianna That bitch! She's dead when she wakes up. I got a call from Simona asking me to go to the hotel because they'd just found me a rich husband, but when I got there, they were all out. Those morons had the time of their lives last night while I was busy babysitting. Not that the kid was problematic. Change his diaper, feed him, turn on the TV and he won't bother you. The only problem was that he was up by four in the morning. No matter what I did, he wouldn't go back to sleep.So I decided to return him. I was looking forward to party too but I can't do that alone and I don't want to drink with strangers. Now what? Without a distraction, I'll end up thinking about that asshole and probably call him. Can't have that. The only thing I can do is go back downstairs and have breakfast. I'll decide what to do after that. At the restaurant, I order a full breakfast and I'm in the middle of handing the menu back to the waitress when I notice some guy watching me.Judgi

    My eyes snap open when something heavy lands on my face. I have to jerk my head back to see what it is. Not a what but a who. Val. Marianna is standing next to the bed her face filled with disgust. She did not just dump the kid on my face "What the fuck?" "Sorry to burst your little bubble but I'm done babysitting" "Where is Fabian?" Cris asks sitting up and pulling Val into his arms. I've never seen anything so beautiful. His muscles flex when he lifts him in the air and I have this urge to run my hands on the leathery skin. Leave marks on them so everyone knows he's taken. Fatherhood suits him. "He left claiming he was busy" "Couldn't you have waited until later? It's seven in the morning" "I could. But knowing that you're here enjoying your married life while mine is falling apart didn't sit well with me so here we are" "Aren't you the one who pushed us back together?" "I regret it. If I'd known what would happen, I wouldn't have lifted a finger. That way we'd

    "Why isn't he picking up?" "Maybe he's busy? Val can be a handful sometimes" Soriano offers and I want to punch him. Since when is Cris too busy for me? Also, I wasn't talking to him. Why did he feel the need to answer? Dumbass. "Don't you have something to do or somewhere to be?" "Nope. It's my off day today" "Great. Can you go have it elsewhere?" who invented off days again? Oh wait, it was me. I thought it would be a good idea for the guys to have one day off to spend with their families or bitches but now I realize that it was a mistake. These kinds of employees don't need off days. Hanging up, I call Fabian. He picks up on the first ring. For the millionth time, I wonder why he's so glued to Cris. Obviously, I'm the better guy between us. Loving, considerate, appreciative- is that even a word? Any way. I would totally treat him well if he was my guy. When we went to kill Lombardi, I thought we'd bonded and tried to get him to come to work for me but he flat-out turned me

    I was prepared for this. Lashing out at me whenever she is unhappy or angry. It will take some time for her to completely forgive me so until then I can't do anything but take everything she throws at me. But fuck, it hurts. Knowing that I let her down and I can never change it. If only I could turn time back. "I never stopped caring" "Sorry. I was just shocked" "Why did you let her go?" "Because Damiano asked me to. He said she didn't know that I was pregnant. Besides, killing her wouldn't change anything. It's not like I can be pregnant again" No, she can't. "Come on. Your sister bought a lot of food. I wonder if she was planning on locking us in here for a week" I change the subject because it feels like now isn't the right time to talk about Leone. Someday we will be able to talk about him comfortably without it being too much for her. At least I hope so. "She's an idiot. Luckily she's with Fabian or God knows what would happen to your son" "Paulo and your friends are here

    "You're the one who wants to wait." "Not anymore" He pulls back to take off my dress. Making me realize that he's still fully dressed while I'm completely naked. "Don't you think you're overdressed for the occasion?" "I can't wait any longer," he says spinning me around. My eyes connect with his in the mirror and the wicked smile on his lips is enough to let me know what he's thinking. I hear the sound of a zipper then his hot, hard cock is between my crack. He spreads my cheeks open, wedging himself between them, and starts to slowly move up and down. Lord, that feels good. With his eyes still on mine, he reaches up to caress my breasts, pinching my nipples and sending a bolt of heat straight to my pussy. There's something erotic about watching him play with my body. Watching both our reactions to his ministrations. Especially since I'm naked and he's still dressed. It feels like I'm his plaything. Like he can't be bothered to get undressed because he knows I'll accept him either

    Did being a father change him so much? It's been more than an hour and he hasn't touched me which is unlike Cris. The man I know couldn't keep his hands off me. We were like rabbits who fucked anywhere and everywhere. Has he changed or am I not desirable anymore? Did I get old and lose my sex appeal? I'm not even thirty yet. How could he lose interest so fast? He made me sit next to him at the dining table and all he's done is hold my hand. Jumping up, I rush to the bathroom. I was pregnant but never got to breastfeed so my breasts aren't saggy. They're still firm just like how they used to be. And I haven't lost my waist yet. It's still there. I turn around several times to make sure that I'm not lying to myself. Since I came here, I haven't tried dieting or going to the gym. Maybe I gained a little..."What are you doing?" He asks leaning on the door, making me jump. "Fuck, you scared the living daylights out of me" "Are you looking for something?" "Yes. My sexiness

    "Last chance, Cris. If you mess it up, I'll send you to hell myself" Damn it! Who was I kidding? I never had a chance. Maybe provoking him wasn't a good idea. If I hadn't talked to him, he would have continued his play. Giving me more time to convince her that I am the better choice. Then again, who's to say she would have given in? Actions speak louder than words. She doesn't trust me. Locking her door was a clear sign that she didn't feel safe with me. I can't help but wonder what would have happened if I hadn't let her go the first time we met. Why does she keep going back to him? He'll hurt her again. I know he will. Turning off the laptop, I take my car keys and leave. She needs to come back to her senses. After everything that bastard did, how could she forgive him? It's okay if she doesn't want to be with me but he's not right for her either. He left when she needed him the most and he will do it again. "Sir" "What?" "She's still waiting for you in the lobby" Damn th

    I'm curious to know if they've made up but I don't want to disturb them in case they're in the middle of it. Carina just needed a little shove to see that she still loved her husband. I know the other guy, Marco, has done a lot for her but he honestly scares me. Cris is on our level. If we put our minds to it, we could destroy his business and leave him penniless. As a matter of fact, if he does something stupid again, that's what I'll do. But Marco? He's too powerful. He doesn't go around showing it but Damiano told me about him and I was shocked. If someone like that were to date my sister, of course, we would be known as the most powerful family. But it would also mean that we couldn't do anything without his permission. I thought about it really hard. About who would make Carina happy. Maybe I'm judging Marco too harshly but I don't think he can do it. She doesn't look at him the same way she looks at Cris. At first, I just wanted to mess around with her and see if there was a
