"LOOK WHAT HAPPEN TO YOU?!" my father growl like a mad man.
I flinch, shocked with his sudden outburst full of rage and madness. Even Mommy Adie was surprised with Daddy while Aliah on the other hand is sitting beside Gordon.
"Roman calm down, just think about your blood pressure" Mommy Adie whisper and shot a glare at me.
I shook my head and took a deep breath.
"Let's talk calmly Dad," I lift my head and turn my gaze at him "We won't fix this misunderstanding if your mind is clouded with anger"
"This is not misunderstanding Svanna Rose!" He angrily exclaimed and snatch his arm away from Mommy Adie's grip "I rather locked you up in our house than to always visit you inside this fucking hospital! I'm not gonna attend a funeral ceremony for my daughter!" He hissed.
I bit my lower lip and squeeze my eyes close. I understand his concern. Of course, I am his daughter- he's worried and he just wants me safe. I am glad that he can now show me my wo
"Saint," I greeted Vicenzo with a smile.He smile back at me and I notice the basket of flowers his holding. I was about to ask him and complain but Dad cleared his throat to get my attention which made me shifted back my gaze at him."I will go now, I can't stay longer because I still need to attend a lunch meeting" he seriously said and check his wristwatch.I nod my head and flash a small smile."Thank you for visiting me Dad,""This will be the last time I'll visit you in this place Svanna. There will be no next time" he firmly told me.My smile widened and nod my head."Yes Daddy, please be careful"He strictly look at me before he finally nod his head and walk towards the door not giving Vicenzo a single glance. I frown because of that and I slowly look at Saint with a sad smile on my face."I'm sorry about my father..." I whisper.He walk closer to me and sit on my bed."I will talk to him, don't wor
"How did Cypress know about me?" I query."Jana..." he whisper "She's a traitor. She's a spy from the council at first to make sure that I am following the deal and then suddenly she turn her back to Sovrano and give the information about you to Navarra brothers" he gritted his teeth and anger is now evident in his eyes.Navarra brothers are Cipriss Navarra and Cypher Navarra. They both died when Vicenzo ambushed the place. I don't know how, Vicenzo didn't specifically explain that part to me. He just told me that they are already dead. Cypress is no longer functioning because the both heirs to the throne is now dead."Why did she betray us?" I confusingly whisper.Jana seem so nice to me. Now I understand why she so easy to talk- because she's not just a maid. She's a spy from the Sovrano council. It only means that she's an assassin like Piato."I don't know," Vicenzo shrugged his shoulder and glance at me "Cypress plan is to expose you to everyo
I TOOK a deep breath and I smile while looking at Vicenzo. He's standing in the middle of the dance room wearing casual clothes- a simple plain white shirt and sweatpants. His hair is a bit messy and he looks funny right now with his creased forehead and serious face while staring at me.But despite with that, my husband is still handsome."Smile a little Saint" I urge him while stretching my ankle with my hands on my both waist."We should still be sleeping right now" he points out and crossed his arms over his chest.I giggle and stretch my neck. I'm practicing for the upcoming Giselle. I really wanted to be the lead dancer. I wanted to dance on the same stage that my mother dance being the prima ballerina."I want to be the lead dancer. Watch me okay?" I said."My eyes are always on you wife, don't need to remind me that," he said in a matter-of-fact tone.I smile "You don't want to work, and that's really odd," I notice.
"If I say I do, will you say I do too?"My lips parted as I look at Vicenzo with my teary-eyed. I don't know what to say, all I know is my emotions are over flowing right now. The sound of the shallow water is like a music to my ears now and the cool wind breeze is like a soothing symphony that makes the moment right now romantic while my husband is kneeling in front of me."Svanna Rose Zeneca-Santorini, to tell you the truth. I don't have much to offer to you. I thought, I can give you everything when I start to want you the moment I lay my eyes on you, but then, when I held you in my hands and cage you in my arms I realize that you deserve someone better than me. I realize that you deserve a man who will back you up without limits, a man who will let you grow without borders and a man who can offer you things that you wanted and needed the most. And I am just Vicenzo Santorini, the man who tricked your father just to make you mine but I still dare to want you" he sho
EVERYTHING turns back to normal but it seems like Vicenzo is still in the constant changing process. He really surprise me a lot, not just because he always has surprises but also because of the changes in his actions.Three days after his unexpected proposal, he urges me to start planning for our wedding. He seems so impatient about that thing, he is more excited than me. Well, I am excited because finally I will get wed to the person I love. But Vicenzo is different! He's much more excited to the point that, sometimes he's already exaggerating. He seems in a rush and whenever I ask him, he just always answer me with the same line- 'I love you, wife'.He's weird, right? I think my sly husband is planning something. I think he has a hidden agenda. But that's alright, I trust that man. And he's helping me preparing the wedding since I am also busy preparing for Giselle play. Vicenzo is actually so hands-on in every detail of our wedding and that feels so nice. He always
"I am trying to protect you from the possible chaos, Svanna Rose""What do you mean by that?" I immediately retorted, but Gianni just gave me a weak smile and shake his head."Congratulations in advance, Chèrie"My face softens because of what he said. What is happening to him? Is someone bothering him?"Gian, are you sure you're alright? I am worried about you " I whisper and I grip the hem of his shirt "Vicenzo said you went on a business trip. I really wanted to talked to you, and I didn't know you just arrived" I told him.I press my lips together when he held my wrist and push my hand away from him. I confusingly look at him, wondering why he suddenly become distance with me.Although he's not saying anything, I know something happen and he's not just telling it to me. Something is off with him- his actions, the way he speak and even the way he look at me. He suddenly become harsh and aggressive to his move. It seems like he can'
Would you believe that after so many bad things that you experienced, good will eventually happen? I know it's hard to believe that, but it can. After a tough seven months as Vicenzo's wife, I experienced a lot of things that change my life. In the beginning, I am full of regrets. I wanted to back out because I don't know anymore how to compromise just for me to keep my track of the decision I made.I was the black swan of the Zeneca family, Dad treats me like one and so did Mommy Adie and Aliah. They are one of those people who don't appreciate me. People who don't see how much I try my best. As I grew up, I learn to hide it all inside me while absorbing the mistrust and disappointment that they made me experienced. And I guess it's my miscalculated solution to step back from the family that I grew up- absolute isolation if that's what they called, while still stuck in the past about my mother's death.But things change when Vicenzo step into my life. He both give cha
"Congratulations"I flinch when I suddenly saw Daddy Victor in front of me. Vicenzo's grip on my waist instantly tighten because of my reaction and I saw how he sharply look at his father."I told you not to scare her" Vicenzo utter in a controlled tone of voice with a creased forehead.I flip my gaze at Vicenzo and I held his arm to calm him down. He's a bit exaggerating. I just can't really get used to Daddy Victor's presence yet that's why I instinctively react like this."That's enough Saint, you are overreacting" I stop him.He turns his gaze at me and his brows furrowed flashing his annoyed face. He really seldom smile even at our wedding."He startled you" he points out.I rolled my eyes "So unreasonable Saint," I utter and I saw him press his lips together while looking at me as if I just bullied him.His masculinity doesn't compliment his childishness. Although he looks adorable when he's sulking, still I don't want hi
