Katherina left this afternoon. After Maria called me to report that my cousin was held at the door, I rushed downstairs where she Informed me it was fine for her to return. “Your mama said a week, it’d be best for you to return when things settle, you’re staying.” “It is settled” she quipped.Though I don’t know the details I add. “Just to be sure Rafael doesn’t try to reach you or make any trouble” I turned to leave.“He won’t be a problem because he’s dead. Carlos killed him” My jaw drops momentarily, I hadn’t been expecting that, not sure what I was expecting but not that, I suppose I imagined they would put the issue of the marriage to rest and we could all move on. The Rizzos won’t press the issue with Niko present. But with him dead, so is the issue of marriage. “Er… alright then.” I paused as I was still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing, I can’t believe it's done. And issue they’ve been going back on forth on for more than a year now. And why do you say? Father

After dinner, we head into the family room for drinks and to chat. Chase, Danilo, and Vincent are at one side talking, Tommy having said he was sitting this one out, muttering something about how he hasn't slept for three days. Eva isn’t here, and unsurprisingly so is Matteo. Hopefully, they sort out their issues. Peacefully. Niko strides in a moment later, a glass of scotch in his hand, I had come in ahead of him when he went momentarily to receive a phone call. He walks right up to where I’m relaxing back on the couch, enjoying another glass of wine, it’s my second and last one for tonight and I’m determined to savor it. “Scoot over sweetheart,” he says when he stops in front of me. I lean back, bringing my glass to my nose and inhaling the sweet scent of grapes. “Why?” I blinked up at him coyly. “I want to sit with you” Call it what you want but Gianna was right after all, he has barely looked away from me all evening, smoldering me in his heat, and I have had to stop f

The next morning I woke up feeling a little disoriented and a slight tightness between my eyes, my tolerance for alcohol must have gone to nil if two glasses could give me a mini hang over. I go to check on the kids and see Maria in the living room. “Good morning”She is already dressed in a purple top and a pair of black pants, healed pumps at her crossed feet “Good morning, sleep good?”I nod. Looking around before mouthing “Niko?” I don’t know why I’m whispering though. I must have been far gone dreamland when he joined me last night. Guess the men had lots to talk about.“Gym downstairs” I nod, he seems to be working out a lot these days. As the twins are still asleep, I decide on a shower to feel more awake. brushing my hair up into a ponytail.I’m putting on some moisturizer when Niko enters the bathroom. “Good morning” I look at him from the mirror.“Morning baby,” he says, running a hand through his sweat damp hair, the longer strands are down now, falling into his eyes.

Is this baby Niko? “How freaking cute” I’d know that face anywhere, it looks just like my son. I flip through two more laughing, how long has he had these? Pushing his chair back with one hand, I lower unto the chair as I slip the picture to the bottom revealing another, where he looks about five with his curly hair falling over his forehead."Oh my Gosh" Is it weird that this makes me want to have another mini Niko? That frown and chin?In the next picture, he looks to be about fifteen, fourteen maybe? It’s a half shot, stopping at his waist, he wears a white shirt with a dull brown jacket over it, hands stuffed inside his jacket pocket. I flip to the next and another one after that, he's not smiling in any of the pictures, but the sight of them makes me smile. In the next one, he looks maybe eighteen, but it's a little hard to tell he as seems so tall already, He is in a tank top, cargo pants tucked into half-laced boots, all in black. His face is thinner but the eyebrow is the sa

My breath skips in my lungs, and I can hear my heart beating in my throat, is it strange that even after nearly two years, the thought of him still makes my heart beat faster, makes me squirm with butterflies like a fifteen year old with a crush? Swiping my tongue over my bottom lip, I lean back slightly. “I have a meeting in a few minutes, I came here looking for earbuds, I can't find mine” In fact it should already be time as I've spent the last ten minutes looking at pictures and walking down memory lane. “Top right drawer” He thumbs the underside of my ribcage, just beneath my breast and tingles spread down my spine. Getting ahold of myself I clasp the golden handle, dragging the drawer open, I immediately see the black case of his earbuds, snatching them up and making to slip out from under his arms murmuring a thank you. I don't get very far before I'm spun around fingers tighten around the back of my thighs and I'm deposited on the table, his lips claiming mine in a way th

When I woke up the next morning I changed and went down for a swim, either I missed Vincent or he didn’t show, by the time I came back and showered it was almost seven. When I go to take my phone from where it’s charging on the nightstand, I notice a black velvet box. A wide smile pulls at my lips. I’m almost blinded by the sparkling diamonds when I pop it open, my breaths hitching in my lungs. Since the first time, whenever Niko travels he buys me jewelry, a pair of earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and hair adornments, never rings though, I once asked why he hasn’t gotten me any rings and he said; the only ones you need are the ones that proclaim you taken by me, anything else will serve as a distraction. Holding it up with one hand to the light I admire my new piece, wow. It’s beautiful. Picking up my phone I call him. He answers on the first ring. “I saw your present, why didn’t you show me earlier?” I asked grinning ear to ear. “I got distracted by other things” he answer

“Yes sir” Maria abandoned the clothes she was still tending to and immediately disappeared in the direction of the nursery. His eyes are dark when he e holds a hand out to me “Come here.” My heart skips in my chest but I keep dancing slowly as though I am unaffected by the tone of his voice and the look in his eyes. Stark hunger. I feel heat in my cheeks, spreading down my chest, making the tips of my breast tingle. Now that we’re alone I exaggerate the movement of my hips bending slightly to fold two more clothes before I turned to him, looking at him from beneath my lashes “Want to dance with me swetie?” Any ounce of patie
