Dante's POVI can't sit still.I was so stunned when she left that I just stood there, watching her walk away until she disappeared from view. I never imagined she'd do something like that, and now I have no idea where she could have gone.The sky grows darker, and my worry deepens.Is she safe? Where is she?The first feeling I had when she ran off was fear. Fear that she might be gone for good, and I could lose her forever.We haven't reached our goal yet. Sophia is just starting to warm up to me, and there are still things she expects from me.If Sophia just leaves like that, where do I go from here? She's the one easing the anxiety I have about losing my mother. Without realizing it, she's shown me how to accept whatever life throws at me—both the good and the bad.If we're ready for it, then it doesn't hurt as much when it comes. But if it’s something we don’t expect, it can hurt far more.I’m not wishing for my mother’s death. I’m just trying to be prepared to face it when it ha

Sophia's POVHe got away with it.The moment his pocket knife sliced into my shoulder, I barely had time to react before someone rushed in to help.He ran.A robber. He tried to steal everything from me—my jewelry, phone, purse. But I fought back. I didn't make it easy for him. His frustration only grew, and he hurt me in the process.Struggling with him probably helped. If I hadn't resisted, he would’ve gotten away with my things before anyone could even step in to help."Are you okay, ma'am?" a stranger asks, his voice filled with concern as he gently guides me to a nearby seat.He hovers over me, arms crossed, awaiting an answer. But I can't find my voice. My body is still shaking from what just happened, and I can feel the blood seeping from my shoulder.There’s no need for him to know that. Dante should be here soon. I didn’t mean to call him, but I did anyway, and he should be arriving any moment now.I’m just worried about losing too much blood before he gets here.The stranger

Dante's POVI was furious at Sophia, but the moment she collapsed, all my anger vanished, replaced by panic. I yelled at John to drive faster until we reached the hospital.The doctor examined her and assured us it wasn’t serious—just excessive bleeding.I didn’t want her spending the night in the hospital, so I carried her back to the car, and we headed home.Lost in thought, I felt a stir beside me. Sophia’s eyes fluttered open, meeting mine. She had been sleeping ever since we left the hospital.“What happened?” she murmured, her voice groggy as her eyes shut briefly before reopening.Relief washed over me. I’d been terrified something terrible would happen. Despite how challenging she can be, she’s my wife, and her safety is my responsibility.“We’re going home,” I replied, looking away. I wasn’t sure if she remembered what led to all this or if she simply didn’t want to talk about it. She stayed silent.After a while, I glanced over to find her staring at me. At first, I thought s

Sophia's POVA noise jolts me awake.I blink a few times, my eyes adjusting to the brightness in the room. The lights are still on. Dante's didn’t bother turning them off before crashing on the couch, and neither did I before dozing off.Curious about the noise, I try to sit up, but a sharp pain shoots through my shoulder. Then it hits me—I was attacked last night. The memory comes flooding back, along with the strange dream I just had.In the dream, I saw faces—three of them stood out. One belonged to Liam, the second to Clara, and the third to a woman I couldn’t place. She felt familiar, though. It was like my mind was telling me I knew her but refused to reveal how or from where.But now that I’m awake, I’m certain none of them were responsible for what happened. The culprit had seemed opportunistic, taking advantage of me being alone on an empty street.I sigh heavily, swinging my legs off the bed as an urgent need to use the bathroom takes over. My bladder feels uncomfortably full

Dante's POVSophia’s sleeping face is the first thing I see when I open my eyes.She looks serene and beautiful, her full lips catching my attention. They remind me of the fleeting kiss we shared the other night.Gone is the iron-fisted, stone-hearted, argumentative woman I know her to be. Right now, she looks like a sleeping goddess.My gaze trails to her exposed cleavage, and I swallow hard, quickly looking away. Shaking off the thought, I climb out of bed and head to the bathroom for a shower before work.The morning light streams in. My internal clock rarely fails me—I wake up at around 6 a.m., give or take a few minutes, without needing an alarm.After brushing my teeth, I step under the shower. The warm water cascades over me, washing away the haze of sleep, but my mind can’t seem to wander far from last night—or Sophia.Her touch when she held my hand, insisting I had a nightmare, replays in my head.I never have nightmares.Sure, I was uncomfortable on that couch, but her assum

Sophia's POVYawning and stretching, my hand brushes the empty space beside me. I open my eyes to find that Dante is gone.He was here all night, sleeping soundly. He must have left for work.Suddenly, my stomach growls loudly, and I groan as I get up. My shoulder still hurts a lot, and I’m guessing this hunger is thanks to the medicine I took last night.I slip into the flip-flops by the bed and shuffle out of the room, yawning loudly without a care.Last night was a nightmare, but today, I feel slightly better, though the pain is still there.I’ve decided not to dwell on what happened. Overthinking it is probably why I had that dream.“A dream is just a figment of imagination caused by human thoughts,” my dad used to say.There’s no point stressing over it now. What’s done is done. He was just a thief trying to rob me, nothing more. He’s nowhere near as significant as Liam, Clara, or even that other woman.I take the stairs slowly, heading to the dining room in search of breakfast. M

Dante's POVFather is about to leave for the day when I walk into his office without knocking. His secretary had mentioned he had plans, but this matter can’t wait.I’ve got plenty to handle back at my office, which is why I came straight here instead of heading back after my meeting.He pauses mid-step, turning to face me with a stern look.Realizing I’ve skipped formalities, I greet him, though my voice is slow. “Good morning, Father.”“Why are you here?” he asks, ignoring my greeting and offering no invitation to sit.I take a seat anyway, disregarding his tone.Questions flood my mind, ones that have been haunting me for days. This isn’t just for Sophia’s sake—though she’s part of it. My own curiosity burns too deeply to let this go unanswered."I asked why you're here, Dante,” he snaps, his irritation evident. “I’ve got a meeting in thirty minutes, and I need to leave."“I won’t take much of your time, Dad,” I reply, spinning the chair to face him. “I just have one question.”He

Sophia's POVThe sound of screeching tires jerks me out of my thoughts. I stop mid-bite on the doughnut in my hand.I had fallen asleep earlier after dinner and woke up around 10 p.m., hungry again. But more importantly, Dante hadn’t come home yet.He always comes back late, but past 10 p.m.? That’s unusual. He was so concerned about me last night; it wouldn’t hurt to worry about him tonight.I had called him before coming downstairs, but he didn’t answer.Sighing, I place the doughnut back on the plate sitting on the coffee table and get up from the sofa. Making my way to the front door, I pause when I hear the lock click.The door opens, and there he is—walking in casually with his briefcase and blazer slung over his shoulder.He doesn’t even notice me until I clear my throat softly.He glances up, his face breaking into a smile."Why are you smiling?" I ask, arms folded across my chest as I throw him a cold glare.He shakes his head, brushing past me. "Nothing.""Why are you home s

Dante's POVSophia has been avoiding me for over a week now, ever since I told her I didn’t approve of her telling my mother that she was pregnant without my consent.My mother has been thrilled by the news, and now, everyone knows that Sophia is pregnant.Every time I try to resolve things between us, I find her curled up in bed, leaving the couch for me to sleep on.I had the maids bring in another bed for the room I’m staying in now. I’m not on the couch anymore, but I really wish I could sleep beside her again.Guilt is something I’ve felt more since Sophia came into my life. I don’t know how she manages to make me feel this way, but she does.I feel bad for what I said to her, which led to her being upset with me. I really want to apologize, but I don't know how to start.She’s just trying to help.Casually, I walk out of her room and close the door behind me when I bump into someone. It’s Sophia, and she raises an eyebrow at me.“What were you doing in my room?” she asks, scrunc

Sophia's POVThere stands Christine Moore.My favorite guitarist.My mouth drops open in disbelief, and I quickly glance over at Dante, who is smiling proudly. 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. Back when my father’s business wa
