Victoria Elise, their miracle child, slept peacefully, little fingers cramped into a tiny fist.He sat among them, his dark eyes shining as he looked at his daughter. His hand reached out, the tips of his fingers gliding over the rounded firmness of her cheek in gentle touch."She is perfect," he said in an almost choked voice.Valentine smiled slowly. "She really is."Arnulfo took Valentine's free hand, their fingers entwining. He kissed the tips of her fingers softly, never once breaking eye contact with their daughter. And he went on softly, "He was happy, Val."Her face reverted to her on her pillow.Arnulfo drew her hand softly. "See him last night? He wept more holding our Victoria Elise than ever in his life."Valentine's heart overfull at the recollection.The night before had been one of the most emot
Arnulfo pulled at his collar. "Remind me again why I'm marrying your daughter?" Valentine raised an eyebrow. "Because you love me?"Arnulfo groaned and threw up his hands dramatically. "Damn. You got me there." Don Victor chuckled. "You'll live, Vegas." Valentine stood in front of the mirror staring at the wedding gown. It was breathtaking-ivory lace, delicate beadwork, a flowing skirt that made her feel like she was floating. But what caught her breath was how Don Victor sat behind her as a reflection. His eyes were misty, his face unreadable. " Papa?" she whispered He clears his throat: "You just look like your mother." A boulder formed in the throat of Valentine. "She'd be proud," he managed to breathe the words out so that his emotions were trembling about. Watering eyes with Valentine, "Really think so?" He bent down and cradled her face. "I know so." And in the blink of an eye, she dissolved in his arms. "I love you, Papa," she whispered. Don Victor's eyes closed, and he tightene
The morning sun trickled through the grand estate's windows, dimming to a golden view of the room in which Valentine sat, carrying her newborn baby, Victoria Elise. She sighed, taking a sip from her tea when suddenly, the doors burst open. Don Victor strode into the room, full of confidence as if he had just decided to move mountains. His voice boomed across the room."Well, Valentine, mi hija, it's off again. This time, we're getting married."Valentine nearly gagged on her tea. "What?" she blinked at him, wondering if her father had finally lost it.Don Victor gave her a look of annoyance, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "You and Arnulfo. Another wedding. A proper one. A wedding that will be remembered for generations!"Valentine opened her mouth, then closed it. “But we’re already married!”Her father waved a dismissive hand. "That wasn't a wedding. That was a disaster! Do you call being shot at, running for your life, and your sister trying to kill you a wedding
Arnulfo looked at the scene. His heart was heavy but not hollow. This was the man he had been fighting for—the man who once tried to kill him. Yet today, Don Victor was merely a father holding onto his final opportunity for redemption. Arnulfo stretched out, his gaze unyielding. To this, Don Victor displayed an expression that was unreadable. Neither spoke for some time. Then, among all the men standing there, the motion of Arnulfo's hands reached out towards him. It was a challenge, a gesture of peace offering, a guarantee. Don Victor held Valentine next to him, frozen. Then, in his slow drag, he took an indrawn breath and clasped Arnulfo's hand in return. Their grips were tight—not against foes—but two men who had seen each other enough to know for far too long. Two men whose pasts would contradict themselves yet could feel the same love, a love more ample for Valentine. “Take care of her,” muttered Don Victor so low that only a few words' meanings might be gathered. The smooth si
Long-awaited day, finally the day of their union.A soft-golden sunrise was painted in the colors that prevailed as the wedding bells began to ring; this marked the start of love, battle-tested by trials, sacrifices, and the relentless twists of fate, for Valentine and Arnulfo were marrying this da
The wedding preparations had all been settled—every detail planned with care, every dream set to materialize. The dress, venue, and flowers were all set. Valentine and Arnulfo would be saying their vows and sealing their love in front of the world in just a few weeks from now. However, today was no
Warm sunrays poured across the large windowpane of the home Valentine and Arnulfo shared and made golden glint the living area. There on the coffee table, baby names mixed with the color swatches of wedding magazines, venue choice booklets and prenatal vitamins strewn across one another.He sat on
Val reached back against the porch swing so that the swing chains' slow sways could lull her into being calm. Around her, in a soft throw blanket, clung the dark of night- the stars even winking down in approval, for she remained silent and abstract in her considerations. She floated lazy circles r
