Becoming his Salvation Chapter 15
Romeo POVI blink and open my eyes as blurry things start to get clear. I noticed that I was in my room. I winced trying to get up and pushed myself back a little, supporting my body on the bedhead. I called Domenico out just so he could save her. That’s when the realization hit me like cold water of what I'd done, and I clearly don’t remember what Domenico had done after coming out. My whole body felt like it was stabbing in pain as if a car had run over it.I take a glass from my bedside table and drink some water to soothe my parched throat. From the other side of my bedroom door, I heard someone talking. I got up from my bed, opening the door only to see my grandma, Luca, and Dr. Lorenzo. They stood there for a while, unsure whether they should come near me or not."R-Romeo?" Grandma called in a low voice to see if I was the one. I nodded my head, indicating to her that it was me, and she immediately came rushing towards me."Romeo, are you alright now?" Grandma asked as she rubbe

Julia POVI strolled around the VIP room, waiting for Enzo to wake up. Yesterday night, I received a call from the hospital that he had been heavily injured while on his duty. That sudden news panicked me, and when I reached here only to find that he had been shot twice in the stomach, stabbed in the shoulder, and had bruises all over his body. After two long hours of surgery, he finally made it to life. Being alone is hard when you don’t have any family to take care of, and Enzo was one of them. He saved my number in his call log as family, so the officers and hospital staff decided to call me last night to inform me about his condition. I didn't expect that he would save my name as a family member. Our relationship is not defined to be as brother or sister or even friend. He visited my apartment only because we’re neighbors, though giving a label to this relationship, makes me happy. Sighing, I walked over to the couch that was in the room and took a seat there. I didn't sleep a w

Julia POVThese chocolate brown eyes don’t hold any warmth in them, which I’ve seen that night. There’s something bloodthirsty in them that shudders me inside out. His face is devoid of any emotion. His upper body is bare and only wrapped in a bandage, but I didn’t see any blood in the front; it may be on his back. His gray trousers were hanging low. I could see his hip bone.My brain is telling me that I should run, but it feels like my feet are frozen on the spot. My heart skips a beat, my breathing turns shallow, and my palms grow sweaty. No matter how many times I see him; he always pulls the same reaction out of me. Fear. And excitement. His predatory gaze makes me feel so many emotions, but fear is the most powerful of them all. Romeo took a step forward, and the man instantly stepped in front of me, shielding me like he would do something worse to me.I peered through his broad shoulder, seeing as the other four men who held Romeo pushed him down on his knees when he was about

Julia POVI stared at her, expecting her to laugh at her own joke, but her expression remained serious. The only sounds heard between us were our breathing and the ticking of the clock. The warm hues of the walls were designed to make the area seem pleasant, yet the air surrounding us felt dense and suffocating making it difficult to breathe."W-What!?" I asked, but she raised her palm to my face, forcing me to stop in the middle of my objection."Without asking why you’re doing this? Your concern should not be related to asking questions; all you have to do is stay by my grandson’s side.""And of course, you’re not doing this for free. I’m giving you a large sum of money and security after the completion of our contract." She added. Her words ended on a breathless note.I laughed without caring a bit about who she was. I just laughed. I found the situation quite funny because it never happened to me. What did she take me for?"Mrs…" I glanced at the desk where her name was written in

Romeo POVSitting in the office, I gaze at the door without blinking, anticipating it to open at any minute and waiting for her to step in. Grandma had told me this morning that she would be coming to sign the contract today. I've stacked paperwork on the table to inspect and sign; I've got sites to visit and assess the development; I’ve to visit some of my coastal smuggling areas where a recent raid happened without anyone's knowledge.I’ve tons of things to do but here I am, eagerly waiting for her to enter my den. And when my phone rang in the silence of the room, I held my breath as the moment I had been waiting for finally came."Sir, A girl named Julia is here." My secretary's voice rang through the speaker of the phone."Send her in and call the lawyers too," I ordered. And then the door opened, I looked up and saw her. For a moment, she just stood there at the doorway. I saw her chest rising and falling under that loose-fitting black shirt, the thin fabric draping over her br

Julia POVWhen I arrived, I heard Romeo yelling from the living room. He appeared much more irritated than before."You've got to let us help you. Rusella is not getting any younger, and we’re just trying to do something that may have the possibility of you getting cured." Another man's voice was heard. I peered from the bottom of the stairs only to see a fifty-year-old man seated so calmly on the couch while the person in front of him was on the verge of a breakdown. Feeling a presence, he looked toward me."You must be Julia," he smiled as he rose from his seat on the couch. "My name is Lorenzo, and it's a pleasure to meet you." I smiled and nodded, greeting him. That night, I saw him, but what are they talking about? Who is getting the treatment? Is Romeo ill?"Please have a seat. Romeo, you too," he added, and a huff was heard beside me as Romeo took a seat. The distance is minimal, and I can feel his body heat. Brushing this feeling aside, I looked up at the doctor, who was alrea

Romeo POVI watched as she hurried inside her room. All of these feelings are foreign to me, and I have no idea how to manage them. I felt possessive and afraid when I heard her say she wanted to work. I know this is the dumbest thing I've ever done in my life, yet something in me pushes me to do it. I'm afraid she'll abandon me. Just like everyone else.It’s not that I didn’t sense her presence this whole week. Whenever I came back from work exhausted from my responsibilities I always went to see her. Watching her sleeping so calmly brought peace in me."Romeo, are you sure everything is okay?" Luca asked. I nodded my head and went towards the bar attached to my living room, taking a whisky to drink."You know there’s a meeting today with clients, and Antonio would be there too; you can handle that, right?" Luca asked concern etched on his face. “I don’t want you to be in a bad mood again,” he said. I sighed. Yes, how can I forget that I've got to defend myself as the areas under my
Becoming his Salvation Chapter 22
Julia POV When I opened my eyes, it was midnight. The moon is shining brightly and lighting up my room. I pushed myself up from the carpet, shivering from the cold. When dinner arrives, Luca usually knocks on my door, but he didn't this time. My stomach grumbled, indicating that I should eat something.I unlocked the door, thinking that he may have called me, but I was too sleepy to hear him. But the moment I stepped out, I was only greeted with silence. I went down the stairs going to the kitchen, but I found it empty, as were the living room and Romeo's bedroom.They left me, what should I expect from him? I sighed, rubbing my stomach, which now started to hurt because of hunger. I contemplate the situation so I can take advantage of it. I’m alone; Luca is not here, and moreover, I'm one hundred and ten percent sure that Romeo would not return home like the other night. I should take advantage of this opportunity.I rushed up to my room to put on a hoodie, which certainly keeps me
