When Helena finally fell asleep, I thought I would be able to breathe again.

I thought the worst part of the night was already over.

But I was wrong.

The room slowly sank into silence, illuminated only by the faint city lights filtering through the curtains. The tension from the event still clung to my skin like a second layer. My body remained on alert, incapable of fully relaxing after everything that had happened.

Even soโ€ฆ

None of that occupied my mind at that mom

The way she pushed food around her plate when she was nervous. The way she pressed her fingers against her napkin whenever something bothered her. The way her eyes discreetly scanned every room, always alert, always evaluating possible threats.Like someone who could never fully relax.Like someone who was always waiting for the worst.And it destroyed me.Because I knew exactly who was responsible for that fear.Helena dabbed her lips with her napkin and looked up at my father.โ€œExcuse meโ€ฆ may I leave?โ€Her voice was soft.Polite.Careful.As if she weighed every word before speaking it.Dom Vittorio lif

The screen was still lit up, showing Brunoโ€™s call.He never called me at that hour without a reason.If he had insisted, it was because something was wrong.Very wrong.I went downstairs quickly and headed for the office. When I opened the door, I found Bruno pacing back and forth, clearly impatient.The moment he saw me, he stopped.His eyes narrowed immediately.โ€œFinally.โ€I closed the door behind me.โ€œWhat happened?โ€He crossed his arms.โ€œBefore thatโ€ฆ where were you?โ€I sighe

Trying to put the pieces together. Trying to believe that all of it was real.Because it felt impossible.Absurd.Dangerous.And yetโ€ฆIt was the truest moment I had ever lived.Alessandro was there.Standing right in front of me.Looking at me as if I were the only person left in the world.As if nothing else mattered except the two of us.And that was exactly what terrified me.Reality.My throat tightened.The memory of the kiss was still alive. I could still feel the warmth of his arms around me, the careful touch of his hand against my face, the way he had looked at me before he kissed me, as if he were fighting the greatest battle of his life.Maybe he was.Be
