•CAMILLA•"You shouldn't have sat there and done nothing. She lied to everyone and introduced a stranger as you. How could you sit down and do nothing?" Nicole asked as she sat down on the bed with me.I felt like she didn't understand how I felt and that I wanted to honor my father's memory instead of causing drama when we were supposed to dedicate the day to him."I didn't want to dishonor my father's memory. I walked away from the whole thing because I didn't want to end up doing something I would regret for the rest of my life.""She humiliated you once again. She spat on your face and watched you walk out as if you were letting her get away with it. That's how she saw the whole thing.""I just don't want to fight anymore." I lay on the bed and closed my eyes as tears escaped. "I could really use a day whereby everything is normal because I've dealt with Cecilia's drama all my life, and I don't think I can take it anymore."Nicole scoffed as she lay next to me. "Unfortunately, we c

•CAMILLA•“I’ll come and see you tomorrow, babe, okay? Marco called, and he’s taking me out on a date.” She said as she stood up from the bed.I was so happy to hear that. I got up as well from the bed and hugged her.“Have sex. You need it.”She chuckled as she pulled her and clutched her purse under her arm.“Stop it! I know you’re trying to flaunt your relationship with Santino because you guys are now sucking each other’s privates!”We laughed.“I would never do that, but girl, the dick is good.”“You admitted?” She laughed.“Thank you, Nicole, for speaking some sense into me. I don’t know what I could’ve done without you. I hope you know how much I love and appreciate you.”“I love you, Camilla. Later, I will check up on you, and please accept my condolences regarding your father. I know how close you were to him, and I can’t imagine how you’re feeling right now. No matter how things are going at the moment, I want you to know that you’re in control and you got this.”“Thank you

•SANTINO•“What do you mean Naeve showed up in New York?” Cole laughed as we walked up the stairs to Titus’s living room.“Bro, she shocked me. I don’t know where she got the nerve to show up in New York when I told her I would be there with Camilla. All my efforts to fix things with Camilla would’ve been in vain if she saw her.”“That’s fucked up. You must put an end to her craziness. She will ruin your marriage with Camilla if you’re not careful.”When we arrived in the living room, a housekeeper directed us to our seats and offered us something to drink.“Camilla is the woman I want, so I will make a plan to end everything with Naeve. She’s stubborn, so I know it won’t be easy.”Cole chuckled as he sipped his juice. “Then you wonder why I change women every day. I don’t want them to feel as if I belong to them. 5 years is a long time, brother. It won’t be easy to break things off with her.”I took my juice glass and leaned back on the couch. He was right, but Naeve wouldn’t have an

•SANTINO•“Where’s Camilla?” I asked Francesca when I arrived at the house. “Is she home?”“No, she went out to get some air. It wasn’t a long time ago. Why?” she asked. “Is there something wrong?”“Someone told me what happened at the memorial service, and I want to check up on her. Is she okay?”“I don’t know,” she breathed. “Nicole came over, and they talked. I hoped she would feel better after that, but she came out of her room and told me she needed to get some air.”“Oh,” I furrowed my brow.I had an uneasy feeling when thinking of where she could have gone because I didn’t see her anywhere outside the yard.“Did she go out with someone?” I asked, my heart racing.“No,” she scoffed. “She just went out to get some air. I’m sure she’s okay, Santino. She needs time alone to process everything that happened.”“You better pray nothing happened to her.” I pointed my finger at her before I turned my back and rushed to the door.I got inside my car in the driveway, drove out of the gate

•CAMILLA•I sighed as I threw the wine bottle in the trash bin near the park’s bench and went inside my car parked behind Santino’s car.I heard enough of his lies and didn’t want to listen to them anymore. He and I weren’t about to make another mistake again.I didn’t want him to break my heart.I then roared the engine to life and drove back home.I went straight to my room and took off my clothes so that I would shower when Santino walked in.He closed the door and walked toward me. His eyes traveled to my chest for a second before he breathed and met my eyes.“Camilla, I meant every word I said at the park. I want to do right by you, and I won’t let anyone hurt you. I’ll protect you and Nico with everything I have.”“Why? Why now, Santino?”“Because there’s no point in trying to run away from the feelings I have for you. I want you, and only you. I’ve never met anyone who makes me feel the way you do, and I don’t want to lose that feeling.”I wanted to be happy to hear that. I had
