Bella couldn't decide whether to laugh or cry.He had said he loved her, but to Samuele, love wasn't just a feeling. It was a choice. A commitment.She wasn't naïve. She knew agreeing to marry him was a gamble.But in a world filled with men who never thought twice before betraying their partners, here stood a man who was determined to give all his love—and himself—to the one woman he married.He had even saved himself for her… and he wanted her to be that woman.Maybe... she could take that risk."Okay, Samuele."A smile spread across his face. Just hearing her say his first name felt like a victory."I'm convinced about the marriage," she continued, taking a nervous breath. "But the children..."His smile softened as he waited for her to finish."I do want kids someday," she admitted. "Just... not now." She glanced away before looking back at him. "You know how demanding our profession is. Right now, my career is my priority, and I want to focus on becoming the best doctor I can be."
Bella slowly unwrapped her legs from Samuele’s hips, her arms sliding down from his neck to rest on her thighs. But Samuele didn’t move an inch. He kept his body pressed close, making sure she knew he had no intention of letting her go.“Dr. Samuele—” she started, her tone shifting into something hesitant and formal.“It’s Samuele to you,” he cut in smoothly.She lifted her eyes to his, finding a kind of intensity in his gaze that made her realize he was dead serious, waiting on her every word.“Samuele,” she tried again. “Why do you want to marry me all of a sudden? As I recall, a few weeks ago you couldn’t even stand the sight of my face. And now…” She paused, looking up at him. “Now you’re proposing?”“Because I want you, Bella. And I want to spend my life with you,” he asserted, sliding his arms around her waist to pull her flush against him.A slow smile curved Bella’s lips. “So you can have me,” she looked into his eyes. “I am yours.”Samuele studied her carefully before speaking
Bella paced around Samuele’s office, her mind spinning with scandalous thoughts. She imagined pushing him past his limits—seducing him until all his professional composure cracked, and he took her virginity right there on his desk while she gasped his name. God, she was losing her mind.An amused giggle escaped her into the quiet room. She slid into Samuel’s high-backed executive chair, resting her head against the cool leather and closing her eyes. She leaned back, picturing his heavy arms wrapping around her, holding her tight against his chest.The sharp click of the door latch snapped her back to reality.Her eyes flew open. Samuel stood in the doorway, a dark, unmistakable intensity burning in his gaze. Without breaking eye contact, he pushed the door fully shut and turned the lock. The soft turn of the deadbolt echoed through the silent room before he began walking toward her with slow, deliberate steps.Bella’s heart hammered against her ribs. She stood up from the chair, risin
Bella’s hands tangled into the fabric of his shirt, gripping him tightly as if her very life depended on it. Her body surrendered completely in his arms while he devoured her mouth with unbridled passion.Just feet away, her colleagues chatted about mundane hospital routines, entirely unaware that a senior surgeon was kissing an intern behind the lockers—undoing her completely until her world spun and her knees felt weak.The raw danger of the situation sent a jolt straight through her blood. A violent surge of desire flooded her core, making her pull Samuele even closer, arching her body so her breasts pressed against the solid wall of his chest.Against her mouth, Samuele let out a low, amused smile at the sudden boldness of the little kitten in his arms.It was only after the locker room door finally clicked shut, and the doctors’ footsteps faded down the hall that Samuele broke the kiss. He pulled back just in time—right as Bella felt she might pass out from a lack of oxygen.She p
When Samuele left Mancini Manor, he went straight to the hospital.It was far too early for his first morning rounds—so early that even the shift nurse who usually assisted him hadn’t arrived on the ward yet. But he didn't care. All he cared about was seeing the face he had yearned for all morning: Dr. Bella.He texted her, and she replied that she was still at the doctors' quarters, arriving in five minutes.Five minutes later, he texted again. She replied that she was in the locker room and would be in his office in five minutes.When another five minutes passed, and she still hadn't shown up, he decided to look for her himself.As he reached the doctors' locker room, a junior resident was just leaving. "Good morning, Dr. DeLuca," the doctor greeted him respectfully."Good morning," Samuele replied in his deep, cool voice, without slowing his pace for a second.He stepped inside, only to stop dead in his tracks.Bella was leaning against her locker, a soft smile on her face and her p
"Because I still haven't forgiven myself for what I did to you," Luciano said quietly. "How can I forgive the people who caused you so much pain, baby?"Rosa sighed. She could hear the sincerity in his voice. If she forced him to forgive them, he probably would—for her sake—but it would only add another burden to the guilt he already carried. It was better to let him heal at his own pace."Okay," she said softly. "But... could you at least let them see Renzo?"Luciano narrowed his eyes at her, a warning look crossing his face."Rosie...""If you don't want to, I won't force you," she replied gently, giving his hand a reassuring squeeze. "Your peace matters more to me than anything else."Luciano let out a slow breath."You need to understand something, Rosie." His voice turned firm. "Not everyone has a heart as kind as yours. I'll think about what you've said. I'll make sure my mother is taken care of financially and that she has everything she needs."He paused before adding,"But I w
Luciano had been furious with Rosa for lying to him. He had avoided going to see her because he knew he wouldn’t be able to control the monsters inside him—and he might end up hurting her.But that morning, when he heard she was going to Prose and Stanza, his anger turned into worry. He didn’t know
One hour earlier…Luciano was sitting in his car, with Luca driving them toward his office, when his phone rang. It was the man he had assigned to follow and guard Rosa.From the bodyguard, he learned that Rosa was on her way to her father’s publishing house. The news immediately put him on edge.“
Just as Luciano turned the corner, Rosa arrived at the other end of the hall. She saw his retreating back, but at that exact moment, Luciano turned around. Rosa froze.Pure, cold fear gripped her. She instinctively ducked against the wall, hiding behind a thick marble pillar. Luciano’s eyes swept th
Early that morning, Luciano’s grandmother’s condition suddenly took a turn for the worse. She began struggling to breathe and was rushed to the hospital immediately. As soon as Luciano received the news, he raced there.His grandfather was already by his wife's side, but the moment Luciano entered
