I pressed my palm flat against the wall, feeling the cool surface beneath my fingers as I fought to steady myself.

What did I just agree to?

The question circled in my mind like a vulture.

I had spent so many nights convincing myself that I was done with Damiano De Luca.

That the man who had believed Elena's lies and had turned his back on me when I needed him most was nothing more than a ghost I had finally learned to live without.

I pushed off the wall and walked out of the de Luca Mansion.

    I stared at the proposal lying on the desk as something inside me shifted.Maybe Damiano really was trying to change; he could have accepted the deal and made millions from it. Instead, he had walked away because he knew it could hurt my company.I slowly closed the proposal."Are you still there?" his voice came through the phone.I swallowed."Yes.""I didn't call to tell you what to do," he said. "It's your company. You should decide what is best for you.""I know."There was a short silence.Then he said, "Just be careful, Gabrielle."I looked at the papers again."I will." Then the call ended.I placed my phone on the desk and leant back in my chair. My eyes moved around the office. A few days ago, I had been telling myself that if Damiano wanted another chance, he would have to prove that he had changed. Maybe this was part of that proof that he had really changed.Still, I wasn't ready to trust him.Later that afternoon, my assistant reminded me about some documents I had left

    The question echoed in my mind as I stood there frozen, my back pressed against the cold wood of the door.My hands were shaking.I looked down at them, watching my fingers tremble against my thighs, and I felt a sob building in my chest. Not because I was sad or scared. But because for the first time in years I don't know how I felt.I had given him one chance.The words replayed in my head like a broken record, and each time they did, a fresh wave of panic washed over me.What if I'm making a mistake?What if he hurts them?What if he hurts me again?I pressed my palms against my eyes until I saw stars, forcing myself to breathe. When I finally dragged myself to bed, I didn't sleep. I just lay there, staring at the ceiling.“If Damiano really wanted to prove he had changed, then why not give him a chance?" I said.But I wasn't going to make it easy for him.Three days later, I was standing in front of a mirror in my office, fixing the sleeve of my dress.The launch event for our ne

    The question hung in the air. I could feel my heart pounding against my ribs; I wasn't ready for this, at least not now.Luca stood at the top of the stairs, his small fingers gripping the wooden railing, waiting for an answer."Luca," I managed, my voice steady despite the earthquake happening inside my chest. "Go back to bed, baby. We'll talk in the morning.""But…""Please."He hesitated, looking between Damiano and me with those big, searching eyes that saw too much. Then he nodded slowly and disappeared down the hallway.The silence that followed was deafening.I turned to face Damiano. He hadn't moved; he just stood there like a statue, his hands clenched at his sides, his jaw tight."We need to talk," I said.He nodded once. "Yeah."I led him to the kitchen, away from little ears that might still be listening. I leaned against the counter, crossing my arms. "You can't make promises to them.""I know.""I mean it, Damiano." My voice came out sharper than I intended. "They're n

I watched them for a long moment, my chest tight.They deserve better than being caught in the middle of all this.I had meant every word. But as I stood there, watching their small chests rise and fall, I realized something else… they deserved a father.And despite everything, despite every scar Damiano had left on my heart, I couldn't deny that he was trying.I closed the door softly and walked to my room.Sleep didn't come easily that night

    I stood there frozen as Elena's words echoed in my skull like a warning bell I couldn't silence.A shiver crawled up my spine. Elena didn't lose gracefully; she never had."Gabrielle?"I spun around.Damiano stood at the top of the staircase.His eyes searched my face, and I knew he could see the fear I was trying to hide."What happened?" he asked, descending the stairs two at a time. "I heard voices…was that Elena?"I nodded, my throat tight."She left," I managed. "She just… left."He reached me in seconds, his hands finding my shoulders. "What did she say to you?"I looked up at him; his jaw was clenched."She said this isn't over," I whispered.Damiano's grip tightened. "What does that mean?""I don't know." I pulled away from him, wrapping my arms around myself. "But I don't trust her."He was quiet for a moment, then he said, "You're right. We shouldn't."I turned to face him…"Damiano…""I know things are complicated between us," he said, his voice low. "But Elena is a threat

    Rosa stood a few feet away, her chest rising and falling like she had run to catch me. Her eyes were red and swollen, and her hands trembled at her sides."Gabrielle," she breathed. "Please… Wait."I stopped walking.Rosa took a shaky step toward me. "I'm sorry," she said.Her voice cracked with the words "I'm so sorry."I didn't move or say anything; I just watched her.She pressed her hand to her chest like she was trying to hold herself together."I believed her," Rosa whispered. "Every single lie she told about you and me, I believed her because she was your sister, and I thought… I thought family doesn't lie."A tear slipped down her cheek."But she did… She lied about everything, and I helped her hurt you more."Her voice broke completely.""I treated you badly and looked down on you because of what she told me. I never stopped to ask if she was telling me the truth.”She wiped her face with the back of her hand, but more tears kept coming."You were alone," she said. "You were
