“Amy, I feel bad for you but let me tell you this freely. I am never going to leave Luciano. I will stay with him. I will love him and he will love me and the kids we are going to have. I am not going to blame him for things that weren’t his fault,”She told her.“You fool! Do you think he loves you? He doesn’t do love,”Dani laughed at her stupid lies. “Amy, you said it with your mouth. I mean, according to you, the only reason I might end up dying is because Luciano loves me. I don’t need you to confirm whether he loves me or not because I know he does.”Dani said. Amy was flaming up at this point. Her whole face was red and she looked like she wanted to lash out at Dani. Dani knew it was time for her to leave. She already got what she wanted. All she needed to do now was go there. The orphanage. It was the same orphanage she had been in before she was adopted at six years old. She already left before Luciano was sent to the orphanage, if not, she would have met him when they were
“You can take it from here, right? I don’t want to show up there too,”Keira said when they arrived at the entrance of the orphanage. “Yes, I can. Thank you for driving me here and I will call you to let you know how it went down,”Dani told her and hugged her. She let out a sigh. She didn’t know how things would turn out and if she would be able to convince Luciano that he had nothing to do with what happened to her or the other people he cared about. She hoped she could but if he doesn’t listen. She wasn’t going to just leave. She would stay with him at the orphanage. They both had history here so they can always share the place if he decides that it would be their new home. “Hey, look at me. you got this,”Keira assured her. Dani let out another sigh before she nodded. “I will call you,”She told Keira before she got out of the car and waited for Keira to drive off before she walked into the orphanage. She didn’t really have many memories of when she lived in the orphanage befor
Luciano wanted to run to her and hug her. He missed her so much and seeing her here right now made him want to pull her into a tight hug and tell her just how much he loved her and how much he wanted her to stay with him but he knew that wasn’t going to happen. He knew that once she found out about him. the real him. she would run away. The past two weeks have been hell for him. He spent most of the time in the fields and also with the kids when they weren’t in school. The rest of the time, he was alone and thinking about her. what she could be doing and how she was feeling. He read the text messages she sent him more times than he could count. Stared at the pictures of her that he had on his phone. He tried to get as much information from Lydia as he possibly could and none of that was enough for him. He missed her so much. Missed her touch, her laughter. Her soft snores when she sleeps. The way she wakes him up in the middle of the night to make love to her. the way she throws her
“I am not going to let you push me away, Luciano. I am not going to leave you,”She said, Those weren’t what he was expecting her to say. He didn’t expect her to back-hug him after what he just told her. He expected her to run away from him. Yet, here she was, hugging and telling him that she wasn’t going to leave him. He wanted to be hopeful. He wanted to turn around and pull her into a tight hug but he reminded himself that just because she accepted him now doesn’t mean she would not turn away from him later and even if she didn’t turn away from him, her acceptance of him doesn’t mean the bad luck of loving him would be gone. Even though it killed him to do it, he removed her hands from around him and turned to her. He dropped her hands and put a distance between them. “I can’t do this, Danielle. I can’t be with you. I want you to be safe. I want our kids to be safe. That’s not going to happen if I let you love me. if I let myself love you any more than I already do. You experien
Dani sighed into Luciano’s mouth, loving the feel of his lips on hers. She kissed him back, showing him with her mouth just how much she missed him, missed his touch. He finally let go. He finally stopped fighting and told her he loved her.She already knew he did but hearing the words from him made her feel complete. She had been so sure that she was losing. That she wasn’t going to be able to pull him out and make him see that none of what happened was his fault but he somehow got over it just when she was so close to giving up. Not forever though; she had wanted to give him time to think about what she said and then she would try again. Well, she didn’t have to try again. He was kissing her now and she felt like she could finally breathe again for the first time in two whole weeks.They slowly eased out of the kiss and he held her face close to his with their forehead still touching while he stared into her eye.“I am sorry,”He whispered. Dani shook her head. She didn’t want him
“You don’t have to fight anyone because of me, Cherry, you are all I want,”Dani smiled at his words but she still wanted to have a word with that woman. “She’s lucky that I don’t know her. I would have yanked her hair,”“You can’t do that! You are a girl’s girl,”He knew her too well.“I would drop that and pick it up after I yank her hair! She shouldn’t have let you take the blame for something that had nothing to do with you! She went ahead and had a happy life while you hid away, that’s not fair,”Dani let out.“That’s not what happened. I actually lived a pretty good life,”“I am not talking about business or wealth here or even success. You closed your heart to everyone, that’s not fair,”She lamented. She almost hated him for it. Thought of him as heartless and self-centered not knowing that he had been trying to keep people at length for fear that he might cause them pains“That’s not all on her. That’s more on Peter. He ruined what hope I had left with what he did to me.”Ye
“I missed so much, Cherry, so fucking much that I almost lost my mind,”Luciano said as he kissed her all over. Kissing every inch of her that his mouth could reach. Dani wanted to tell him she missed him just as much but his mouth on her body was doing things to her and she could only moan in response. After they finished taking a bath together which was mostly them kissing each other, he carried her into the bedroom and lay on her the bed where he started kissing every part of her naked body. She missed him so much just his mouth on her set her body on fire with need for him. The heat of his mouth and the slide of his tongue over her naked body sent waves and waves of tingling heat down her spine. She could feel him everywhere yet it was still not enough. He cupped her breasts, sliding his thumbs over her nipples as his tongue continued to explore her body. Dani shook with pleasure, her stomach tightened, her internal muscles pulsing. Her body was ready, demanding more of him. dem
Luciano watched her eat. The happiness in her eyes could not be missed. She was genuinely happy to be with him. Just watching her grin so happily while eating the food he made for her gave him so much joy. He had gone out of his way to ask Keira when she called about the things that Dani could eat and her best friend told him some and also promised to make a list for him. Keira also gave him a piece of her mind. Told him he broke her heart and made him swear not to ever run away again. He promised her and he meant it. he wasn’t going to run away again. Nothing would ever make him leave Dani. Staying away from her wasn’t the best way to protect her. Staying with her was the best way.“This tastes really good,”She commented. He smiled. “It tastes good because it was made with lots of love,”She told her. She smiled and blew him a kiss again. He caught it and blew her one too. He was happy. So very happy. Earlier today before she came, he had been so close to calling her but he held b
