DOMINIC'S POV The car stopped just in front of the door of the house. Just like last time, nobody except Victor, Barry and Ezra knew that I was travelling back to Ireland to see Emily. The moment I stepped out of the car, Anita stormed through the door and jumped into my arms. “Papa!” She exclaimed. My heart was filled with instant joy as I caught her in my arms and spun her around. I buried my face in her hair and inhaled the scent of her it always brought me peace and gave me a sense of home. “I missed you so much.” She whispered and I tightened my hold on her. “Oh, princess, I've missed you too, more than you will ever know.” When I opened my eyes, I found Emily by the door, staring at me and my daughter. Our eyes locked, and I could see plenty of emotions swimming in hers. Her arms were crossed on her chest and I knew that she was holding back emotions—anger, hurt, relief… it was hard to tell. I gently put Anita down and I pressed a kiss to her forehead. “Go inside; I'll sho
EMILY’S POV I melted into Dominic's arms, the tension from the month leaving my body. It was a compromise that I could live with and it made me feel good because it made me feel like he chose me and our future together. I spent the entire month wondering if Dominic had chosen to let me go. I was already prepared to leave, but I was glad that wasn't the case. “I am so glad you're here. I missed you so much.” I whispered into his strong chest. “I had to come see you. I knew you were angry with me and I had to make it right face-to-face. It was the least you deserved.” I explained, tightening his hold around me.“I was very upset. I thought you'd chosen to let me go.” I admitted. He kissed the top of my head. “I'd never do that. I told you, I am never going to let you go. That would be like ripping myself apart and throwing the most important part away. I can't survive without you. You're a part of my soul. I'd die before I let you go.” I could hear the strong emotions in his voice,
EMILY’S POV “I want you on the bed.” His voice was strong with the order. I nodded and crawled into the bed and laid down on my back. “God, you're so perfect. Every inch of you is so beautiful. You're all mine. Nobody else will ever touch your precious body, except me.” He said as he moved closer to me and kissed my lips. “Say it, Emily. Say you're mine.” “I am yours, Dominic. All yours.” I told him in a desperate voice. “Good girl.” He whispered. He stood in front of me and began to strip out of his own clothes. Unlike his usual dark corporate attire, he was dressed in casual black slacks and a white polo tee shirt that hugged every inch of his sexy body. But very soon, he stood naked before me. His bulging shaft stood erect and begging for release. I wanted nothing more than to wrap my fingers around him and bring him to my mouth, but he was in total control of everything that was happening and I needed to follow his lead. “Spread your legs for me and touch yourself.” He orde
EMILY’S POV Dominic and I did not leave the room till it was time for dinner. We spent the time wrapped up in each other’s arms, talking, making love. It was as though we were in our own little bubble that we created for ourselves away from the rest of the world. It was as though the problems of the world ceased to exist—if only for a moment. It was beautiful and I wished it would never end. “We better get downstairs for dinner before everyone assumes that we are dead.” I told Dominic, making him to chuckle. He rubbed his nose against mine softly. “Do we have to? I never want to get out of this bed. To keep on worshipping your gorgeous body.” I giggled and pushed him away playfully. “Tempting as that sounds, we have to get down to dinner. I am hungry.” “Okay. If you insist.” He groaned and I could not help but laugh at his expression. We both got ready for dinner and then walked down the stairs and into the dining room hand in hand. When we walked into the room, Daniella, Anita
DOMINIC'S POVI woke up very early the next morning and woke Emily up too. I had a surprise for her. I knew it was a lot to keep her locked away in the house for so long so I decided to take her out to see the city. Nobody knew we were in Ireland so I knew it would be safe. I stared at her for a while before waking her up, mesmerised by the way the sun kissed her beautiful skin. I almost did not want to wake her up, but I had to. Gently, I pushed her hair back and pressed a kiss to her forehead. “Wake up, my love,” I whispered. She stirred before her eyes finally fluttered open and she looked at me with a frown for disturbing her face. “Dominic, what's the time?” She asked with a groan. “Much too early for questions, my darling. Wake up, I have a surprise for you today. You have to get dressed.” I told her. She sat up and looked at me with narrowed eyes. “I hope this surprise does not involve any gunshots.” She warned. I warm laugh erupted from my throat. “Of course, not. I pro
DOMINIC'S POV The night was very quiet, so it was my instincts screaming at me to wake up. Something didn't feel right, I was sure of it. I listened carefully for any sound that would indicate trouble, but the night was still, very quiet, but that in itself was troubling. Beside me, Emily shifted softly. I tucked a strand of hair behind her ears and pressed a kiss to her forehead before slipping out of bed. I walked over to the window, careful not to make a sound. I pulled the curtain back carefully and peered outside. The yard was glimmering with the moonlight. Lorenzo had men patrolling before everybody went to sleep, but I didn't see any of them, which only heightened my suspicion that something was definitely wrong. I pulled on a shirt and sweatpants and pulled out my gun from the drawer where I hid it. I walked through the dimly lit hallway. The lights were off just as I left them before we went to sleep, but when I got to the kitchen, I froze, the door was slightly ajar. I w
DOMINIC'S POV I unlocked the room and went over to the bathroom to let the girls out. The moment the door came open, Emily flew into my arms. Anita did the same thing. “I am so glad that you are okay,” Emily said I could hear the relief in her voice. “I am glad you are alright, too,” I told them. They were my major concern and the reason why I didn't bring the roof down on those motherfuckers. The rest of the day, I worked tirelessly to find out who had been responsible for the whole thing. I had a new threat, and this one was very bold. “Dominic, I am so worried,” Emily said as she sat down on my lap. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her close to me. I pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I'm worried too, especially since I do not know who this is.” “What's going to happen?” “We have to move. I can't keep you guys here and I have to be in Italy to deal with the Mendez issue. Imagine if I was not home when the attack happened.” “I am so glad you were here. I don't think I
DOMINIC'S POV The estate in Sydney was almost like a luxurious fortress. It was hidden in the hills and surrounded by thick, beautiful eucalyptus trees and placed at the back of miles of private land. The main house was modern—a smart house, it was beautifully decorated, and we made sure it was heavily secured with state-of-the-art security surveillance, motion sensors, and encrypted alarm systems; I got heavily armed men patrolling the grounds every time. We got them from a security agency with heavily trained men from the military. But still, my mind was not at ease. We had only been in Australia for a week, but I could not shake away the heaviness that was in my chest. Emily and the rest of the girls were trying to adjust. Emily was putting on a brave face for the girls and Sofia, but I could still feel the tension in her body and the worry in her eyes. The attack had left a mark on everybody. “Dominic, we have finished installing the facial recognition system on the North and

DOMINIC'S POV The pain in my side had finally begun to dull. I could move a bit and I was sick and tired of being indoors. I'd not stepped outside in almost three weeks and it was sickening. I moved with the aid of my crotches and then I sat outside. It was nice to breathe in fresh, unadulterated air. I needed to clear my head and be away from everybody, but the silence only made my thoughts louder. I felt bad that I had not spoken to Emily since she was here, but that was because I needed the space between us. Needed both of us to have the chance to think about what we both wanted. I knew for sure that I didn't want to let this life go, but I also knew that I didn't want to let Emily go either. Victor's words echoed in my head. “Sometimes the action has to end and you have to settle down and focus on what is important.” I knew he was right, but I was not sure that it was something that I was willing to accept. I only knew how to survive by the barrel of the gun, asking me to surv
