Isabella’s POV

"Go lay down." Romeo said as we stepped into the foyer of the penthouse. "Don’t faint."

"I am fine, Romeo. I just want to change."

"Fine." He sighed, hands on his hips. "I will need to go to the clinic. I will leave Irene with you. If I hear anything from her, I am coming in with a medical kit."

I nodded absently and walked toward the master bedroom. I needed to get out of these clothes.

I entered the bedroom and stopped. The bedsheet was changed into a new one, replacing th

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Hand her the keys

    RomeoI watched her in the rearview mirror until she disappeared completely behind the heavy glass doors of the architectural firm.Even dressed in a practical beige trench coat and a severe hairstyle designed to make her blend into the background, Irene still carried a gravitational pull that seemed to command any room she entered. I had seen the way her colleagues paused on the pavement to stare. I had seen the exact moment her shoulders squared, the defensive posture dissolving into something sharper—genuine, unfiltered confidence.I merged back into the chaotic Roman traffic, the low, powerful hum of the Porsche’s engine vibrating steadily through the steering wheel.I was not a man prone to impulsive decisions. I operated on logic, empirical data, and calculated risk. Moving into a structurally compromised apartment building and openly declaring war on a woman’s beige ex-boyfriend was, by every statistical measure I trusted, irrational.And yet, as I drove toward the Galante Medi

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Favourite day

    IreneI leaned my back against the heavy wooden door, listening to the solid click of the deadbolt sliding into place.For a long minute, I just stood there in the dimly lit entryway of my apartment, staring blankly at the peeling linoleum floor. The silence of 4A was absolute—almost too absolute—ringing in my ears after the chaotic noise of Trastevere and the sheer, overwhelming volume of Romeo’s presence.I slowly raised a hand, pressing my fingertips against my lips. They were still buzzing. Warm. Sensitive. Completely and utterly ruined for anyone else.“You are in so much trouble,” I whispered to the empty hallway.I pushed myself off the door and walked into my tiny bathroom. I flipped the switch, wincing as the harsh, flickering fluorescent light buzzed to life. I looked at my reflection in the mirror above the rusted sink and immediately let out a breathless, disbelieving laugh.Romeo hadn’t just kissed me; he had completely dismantled me.My hair—usually aggressively tamed in

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Felt like agreement

    Chapter 24: The System OverrideRomeoThe human body is an exquisite, entirely predictable machine. As a physician, I relied on its predictability. I knew pupils dilated under low light or intense arousal. I knew the carotid artery pulsed more visibly when adrenaline flooded the bloodstream.Standing in the sun-drenched alleyway, holding Irene against my chest, every finely tuned observational skill I possessed was screaming the same diagnosis.Her pupils were blown wide, nearly swallowing the dark brown of her irises. Her breathing was shallow, lips parted—still painted with that dangerous, dark red lipstick. And beneath my palm, where my hand was splayed across her lower back, she was completely, entirely still.Not retreating.Not rebuilding.Just there.“Irene,” I murmured, my voice rough now, stripped of what remained of my clinical detachment. “If you are going to run, you need to do it right now. Because if you stay in my arms for another ten seconds, I am going to completely a

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Wildfire

    IreneThe cure.The words echoed in my head, drowning out the chaotic symphony of the Roman piazza. I took another bite of bruschetta, and although the burst of garlic and fresh tomatoes was objectively perfect, I barely registered it. My entire nervous system felt like it had been rewired under the weight of Romeo Galante’s gaze.He didn’t look away while I chewed.Didn’t check his phone.Didn’t even blink at the surrounding noise, as if none of it existed unless I acknowledged it first.He just watched me with that infuriatingly confident, devastatingly soft expression—as though I were the most fascinating anomaly he had ever encountered.“You are staring,” I pointed out, wiping a crumb from the corner of my mouth with a paper napkin. “It’s highly unprofessional for a lead researcher.”“I am observing the control group,” Romeo corrected effortlessly, lifting his own piece of bruschetta. “And I am highly professional. I am simply taking mental notes on your metabolic response to toma

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Checkmate

    RomeoI held her wrist, feeling the rapid, fluttering rhythm of her pulse beneath the pad of my thumb.As a surgeon, I spent my life monitoring vital signs. I knew the exact mathematical parameters of a healthy human heartbeat. But the frantic, elevated tempo beating against my skin right now didn’t belong on any medical chart.It was pure, unadulterated adrenaline.It was the undeniable physical proof that she felt the same gravitational pull currently dragging me under.Her dark eyes were wide, completely stripped of the sarcastic, defensive armor she wore like a second skin.She wasn’t fighting me.She wasn’t comparing me to the accountant.For the first time, she was simply looking at me.“Scusate!”Marco’s booming voice shattered the quiet bubble we had built around our table.He slammed a rustic ceramic jug of house red wine and two thick glass tumblers onto the wood, utterly oblivious to the suspended tension he had just bulldozed through.Irene jumped.Her instinctive flight r

  • I Faked My Death to Destroy My Husband   Looking right back

    IreneI am looking entirely at you. And I plan to spend the entire day proving that there are no ghosts in this car.The light turned green, and the Porsche surged forward, pressing my spine back against the plush leather seat.But my lungs completely refused to draw in oxygen.I stared at his profile as he navigated the chaotic Roman traffic with the casual, one-handed grace of a Formula One driver.He wasn’t smiling.He wasn’t mocking me.His jaw was set with absolute determination.For five years, Adrian had looked at me like I was a spreadsheet with too many formatting errors. He looked at me with exhaustion, constantly trying to edit my volume, my clothes, and my opinions to fit neatly into his quiet, beige life.Romeo looked at me like I was the only breathing thing in a city of ruins.I turned my head toward the passenger window, desperately trying to cool the intense flush burning across my cheeks.I gripped the strap of my leather bag like it was a life preserver.He is runni
