"Lorenzo." Sarah cautiously breached the sanctity of Lorenzo’s study later that night. In all the time they had been living in the house, it was the first time Sarah had ever set foot in the study while he was in it.

Lorenzo looked up to see her hovering uncertainly in the doorway and stood up abruptly, nearly sending his chair toppling. Sarah jumped backward at the sudden violent movement, but Lorenzo was around his desk in an instant and approaching Sarah with one hand outstretched.

"Sarah," he intoned huskily. "Please come in." Lorenzo seemed almost eager to have her there. Not exactly the reception she was expecting.

Lorenzo steered her toward the huge leather easy chair in one corner of the large study, seating her before taking the chair opposite her.

Lorenzo leaned toward her, with his hands loosely clasped together and hanging down between his thighs.

"I want to know why," Sarah whispered, after a lengthy silence. "I want to know what commodity you so casually traded

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 073 - CONFESSIONS AND SECOND CHANCES

    Lorenzo paused, his gaze lingering on Sarah before he continued, his voice low and reflective. “She’s the kind of woman I always pictured myself marrying. Poised, sophisticated, beautiful...She keeps all her emotions locked up tight, which suited me fine because I never appreciated messy emotional scenes. We dated and got along pretty well when we were in college. I fancied myself in love with her. It was a very neat, clinical, and uncomplicated version of love. I thought that we were perfectly suited, before things got difficult and we broke up. We both have grown up since then and realised we weren't as well suited and we thought. I- when we were together, we were...practically kids, jesus. We were so young, and just- privileged with the youth we had, free of responsibilities and societal expectations." Sarah tried to keep her expression neutral, but it hurt so much listening to her husband talk about the other woman. "Then I came here to meet your father and saw you for the fi

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 072 - THE GIFT OF TRUST

    Sarah woke up some time during the early hours of the morning when she felt Lorenzo leave the bed. Sarah blinked in confusion, not sure how she'd gotten to bed. She was stark naked, and she didn't remember getting undressed or even coming upstairs for that matter. Sarah could hear Luciana fretting through the baby monitor and was about to get out of bed when she heard Lorenzo’s gentle voice crooning to the baby. Luciana calmed down a little, and Sarah smiled as she listened to her husband sing to the baby, Lorenzo’s sleep-roughened voice slightly off-key. His voice faded and Sarah sat up, switching on the bedside lamp and adjusting the pillows behind her back when she discerned that Lorenzo was probably bringing Luciana into the bedroom for her feed. Lorenzo appeared moments later, looking completely rumpled and wearing nothing but white boxer shorts. He smiled when he saw Sarah sitting up in bed. "Your daughter's hungry." Lorenzo’s nodded down at the fussing baby, and Sarah rea

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 071 - MEETING HIS FAMILY

    At first Sarah hadn't been comfortable with the blatant nepotism, but both Logan and Jackson had convinced her that they genuinely saw value in her work. "Looks like she's not wanting for attention, so I'll take her beautiful mother out for a spin on the dance floor in the meantime," Giovanni said, and whisked a laughing Sarah away from Lorenzo before the other man could protest, twirling her around to some upbeat music. He'd had Sarah for barely two minutes before someone cut in, and after that Sarah was passed from partner to partner for the next half hour before Lorenzo finally claimed her. "Think you can spare some time to flirt with your husband, cara?" he asked sulkily, and Sarah blinked up at her husband uncertainly until she recognized that Lorenzo was a little jealous and most definitely pouting. The fact boosted Sarah’s confidence and brought a delighted smile to her face. "I have a few minutes to spare between dances." Sarah nodded after a considering pause, and L

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 070 -THE SURPRISE

    "So what are the plans for tonight?" Elisa asked curiously as Sarah enjoyed the decadent slice of chocolate mousse cake she was having for dessert. "We'll probably have a quiet evening." Sarah shrugged. " Lorenzo doesn’t know it's my birthday." "Oh." Elisa glanced away for a long moment before turning back to Sarah . "Do you want me to tell him?" "No, he'd feel awful if he knew." Elisa’s lips tilted at the sides. "Well, at least he wouldn't be indifferent," Elisa said. "Which is probably what he would have been a year ago." Sarah nodded. "I know." She paused. "Lorenzo told me he loved me...about a month ago. And he's said it every day since. But, I can't quite seem to bring myself to believe him." "Sarah, it's been pretty obvious to me for a while now that he's in love with you," her cousin startled Sarah by saying. "It has?" "Yes...I think I started to see it when he tried to forgive my debt for no good reason and then when you fainted after your amniocentesis and star

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 069 - THE BIRTHDAY SHE FORGOT

    It was three months later and Sarah headed down to the kitchen for breakfast and found her husband already seated at the table, newspaper in hand. He'd already dressed Luciana and had her little baby carrier placed on the table in front of him. Luciana was asleep and Lorenzo was so absorbed in his paper that he didn't notice Sarah at first. It was Ms. Brown day off, so Lorenzo had fixed himself a bowl of cereal, toast, and some coffee. Sarah smiled at the sight of them, her heart overflowing with affection for them both. "Good morning," Sarah greeted cheerfully as she headed over to the breakfast nook. Sarah dropped a kiss on the baby's cheek and then, after the briefest of hesitations, one on her husband's lean cheek. While Sarah was a lot more affectionate these days, Sarah still felt a certain reserve around Lorenzo, not sure if she could touch and kiss her husband as freely as he did to her. Sarah knew she was being silly, but she seemed unable to overcome her emotional bar

  • Contracted To Him By Her Father   CHAPTER 068 - ECSTASY AND REDEMPTION

    Lorenzo smiled bittersweetly. "I know you don't believe me yet," he whispered. "But I'll make it my life's work to convince you." Lorenzo bent his head and kissed Sarah gently, his lips moist, gentle, and sweet on Sarah’s. Lorenzo raised his head much too quickly, and Sarah went up on her toes to prolong the contact. "Enzo..." Sarah didn't know what to say, but Lorenzo shook his head and smiled gently. "It's okay. I just wanted you to know." Lorenzo kissed her again, a little bit more urgently this time. Sarah’s dormant hormones sprang to life in an instant, and she pushed closer to Lorenzo, deliberately rubbing herself against Lorenzo’s hardening cock. Lorenzo deepened the kiss, his tongue plunging into Sarah’s mouth in clumsy desperation, and her lack of finesse made Lorenzo even hungrier for her. "The doctor gave me the all-clear for sex last week," Sarah reminded Lorenzo, and he groaned at Sarah’s urgent words. "I didn't tell you how I felt because I was trying to
