Contracted To Him By Her Fatherย ย ย CHAPTER 022 - HIS TOUCH, MY RUIN II
Sarah licked her lips nervously as Lorenzoโs scrutiny dropped to her mouth, and his pupils dilated until his eyes were virtually black, a very thin ring of blue-gray remaining. Sarahโs breath was starting to come in little gasps as she tried to control her own need to move against Lorenzo. Lorenzoโs hips gave the slightest twitch, and Sarah felt herself spasm around her husband. Lorenzo hissed at the movement, his face clenching as he withdrew slightly, only to plunge back into Sarahโs inner chamber welcoming the heat as if he couldn't bear to leave. That was all it took for Sarahโs head to fall back limply and her mouth to open on a soundless scream of ecstasy. The record speed of her orgasm seemed to take Lorenzo by surprise, as well as trigger his own. With a shocked sound and another half thrust, he buried himself as deep as he could go, arching backward in the process and coming inside her violently. It seemed to last forever, but eventually his entire body went limp and he

Lorenzo and Sarah barely spoke over the next week or so, merely coexisting in the same house. Lorenzo insisted that they still have breakfast and dinner together and that they sleep in the same bed, but he never touched Sarah, maintaining the distance that Sarah had insisted on. Some part of Sarah was relieved while another bemoaned the loss of the one bond they had shared. She kept telling herself that it was just sex and it had never meant anything. Besides, Sarah had other, more immediate, concerns. Like the fact that she had thrown up every day for the last week and she was still stricken by dizzy spells at the most unexpected times and that her period was now later than it had ever been before. Sarah was relieved that the intimacies between her and Lorenzo had ceased, because Lorenzo was as familiar with Omega's cycle as she was and Sarah would really prefer absolute certainty before telling Lorenzo anything. She also wanted time to figure out what her next move would be.

Lorenzo was home promptly at six. Sarah was curled up on the sofa, flipping through a coffee table book by an extremely popular photographer, which she had just purchased on her afternoon excursion. He was a wildlife photographer, but her subject matter this time around was a lot closer to home. His latest anthology, entitled Man's Best Friend, was all about dogs. Sarah, being a huge sucker for dogs, hadn't thought twice before buying the book. Lorenzo paused in the doorway, and Sarah looked up to see Lorenzoโs arrested eyes on her hair. Lorenzo lifted a self-conscious hand to Sarahโs newly cut hair, knowing that it was a big change. Sarah had had her waist-length fall of strawberry blond hair cut to just below her jaw. The style was straight and sleek, with a feathery fringe, and Sarah loved the way it made her look and feel like a whole new person. Something she was so desperately striving to be. Sarahโs hair had always been long; her father had absolutely forbidden her t

Now Sarah strove to sound flippant about the dog, but the tremor in her voice made a liar out of her. Lorenzo said nothing but he seemed to be struggling with something, his jaw so tightly clenched that Sarah could see the little muscles knotting just below his ears, and his knuckles showed white where his grip had tightened on the book. "What did he do to the dog?" Lorenzo gritted out, sounding like he was chewing nails. "I never knew for sure," Sarah confessed. "Mom said Bamie went to a new family and was happy with them. But I don't know...I always feared that she took him back to the pound." Despite Sarahโs best intentions, tears of long-remembered pain flooded her eyes, and she tilted her chin in an effort to appear casual. "I couldn't sleep for the longest time afterward, imagining how confused Bamie must have been, and on the really bad nights I pictured them taking him into the vet's operating room to be put down, because even though I loved him, he really wasn't c

"Stop staring," Lorenzo groaned, keeping his eyes glued to the road ahead. "You're making me nervous." Yeah right! Mr. Nerves of Steel, who handled the powerful Ferrari with grace and confidence, was nervous. Sarah didn't believe that for a second. She pursed her lips and diverted her eyes to the rapidly darkening horizon beyond her window. They had been driving for nearly forty minutes, and Sarah had no clue where they were or where they were going. She tilted her head back and closed her eyes for a few moments, feeling like the past few weeks of uncertainty were catching up with her. "We're here." Lorenzoโs voice jerked her out of her doze sometime later, and she stretched before sitting up to take stock of their surroundings. The car was already parked in the driveway of a huge house. The place made their, not immodest, house seem like a garden cottage. There were five other sleek and expensive sports cars parked in the driveway, and every light, both inside and out of the ho

Sarah certainly pulled out all the stops when faced with an obstacle, but this was just despicable and so unbelievably obvious. Lorenzo had given her no warning whatsoever. No wonder he was such a successful businessman; he was a master at manipulating a situation to his advantage, and this was a classic example. Give the omega what she wants and maybe her rebellion will subside and she will get down to the business of being a human incubator. "I'm so happy to meet you, Mr. Giovanni," she said softly, taking the man's proffered hand and disguising her anger behind a sweet smile. "Why, just recently I expressed a wish to meet you!" She refused to look at Lorenzo but she sensed Lorenzo uncomfortably shifting from one foot to the other. "And here we are." "Indeed." The other man smiled even though it was obvious, in the way he glanced at Lorenzo , that he knew something was amiss. "I'm glad you overcame your aversion to football and decided to join us tonight. The guys will be delig

"Don't you know how foolish I feel?" Sarah whispered, looking down. "Meeting them now..What must they think of me? I feel like I'm on display, your mystery mate who has shunned them for more than a year." Lorenzo made a pained noise before taking a hesitant step toward his omega before wrapping his arms around Sarah and dropping his forehead to hers. He brought his hands up to cup Sarahโs face. "They'll know whose fault it was, Cara. I'll make sure of that," he promised huskily. "How?" "I'll get them to believe that I really was too possessive to share you with them. They'll believe that I wanted you all to myself." "But that would make you look..." Sarah struggled to find the correct word. "Insecure. Maybe." He shrugged. "Or maybe they'll take one look at you and understand why I'd react like that." "What do you..?" Lorenzo thumbs pressed to her soft lips, silencing the question. "Il mio sciocca piccolo coniglietta," Lorenzo chided, voice soft and endearing. "I ma

Sarah and Lorenzo got home after midnight, and while Lorenzo proceeded to lock up, Sarah wearily headed for the shower in the upstairs guest bedroom that she was still determined to occupy, despite Lorenzo moving her back to the master suite every night. Sarah was standing beneath the hot, relaxing spray of the multiple shower heads in the luxurious guest bathroom, her forehead pressed to the cool wall tiles, when a rush of cold air alerted her to the fact that the frosted glass door to the cubicle had slid open. Sarah turned around with a resigned sigh and watched as Lorenzo turned to close the shower door behind him, offering Sarah a tantalizing glimpse of his beautiful bottom that she had so admired earlier in the evening, while Lorenzo had been chasing a ball up and down Giovanniโs lawn. Lorenzo turned back to Sarah and shook his head with a tired sigh. "You are, without a doubt, turning into one of the most stubborn person I know, Tesoro," he said in an endearing tone. S

Contracted To Him By Her Fatherย ย ย CHAPTER 073 - CONFESSIONS AND SECOND CHANCES
Lorenzo paused, his gaze lingering on Sarah before he continued, his voice low and reflective. โSheโs 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 Fatherย ย ย 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 Lorenzoโs gentle voice crooning to the baby. Luciana calmed down a little, and Sarah smiled as she listened to her husband sing to the baby, Lorenzoโs 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." Lorenzoโs nodded down at the fussing baby, and Sarah rea

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 Sarahโs 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

"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 doesnโt 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." Elisaโs 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 Fatherย ย ย 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

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 Sarahโs. 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. Sarahโs dormant hormones sprang to life in an instant, and she pushed closer to Lorenzo, deliberately rubbing herself against Lorenzoโs hardening cock. Lorenzo deepened the kiss, his tongue plunging into Sarahโs 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 Sarahโs urgent words. "I didn't tell you how I felt because I was trying to

The thin sound of a distressed infant's wail jerked Sarah from a restless sleep. She sat up and fought her way out of bed before groggily trudging to the nursery. When she got there she blinked up at the already-present Lorenzo who was cradling their crying daughter tenderly in his strong arms. He was wearing only a pair of boxers and held the tiny baby up against his strong, naked chest. He was crooning gently to her and Sarah was transfixed by the sweet picture they presented. Lorenzo looked up and saw Sarah standing in the doorway. Lorenzoโs hair was messy and standing up in spikes. "Hey." Lorenzo smiled over at her. "I was hoping you'd sleep through this. You looked exhausted earlier. I don't think she's hungry. Just cranky. I think her wet nappy woke her up. I changed her and she's all dry and comfy now, but she hasn't worked the bad mood out of her system yet." Sarah walked over to them and peered over one bulging bicep into Lucianaโs scrunched-up little face and smil

"I think it's time you left, Father," Sarah said voice rigid with pain, and her father sneered one last time before he pivoted on his heel and strode from the room. "Don't you dare believe what he just said, cara," Lorenzo whispered rawly, focusing his desperate glare on her. "Don't you dare!" "I know that you love her, Lorenzo," Sarah whispered. Lorenzo wasn't sure if she meant the baby or Martina, and Sarah could tell by the look of uncertainty on Lorenzoโs face that he wasn't sure either and so he was at a loss as to how to respond. "Would you try to take her from me?" "NO!" Lorenzo practically screamed, and the baby startled. Sarah soothed her with slight rocking motions until she started suckling again. Lorenzo reined in his temper and gentled his voice with visible effort. "I wouldn't do that to you. Cara I'd never hurt you like that." Lorenzo looked stupefied and hurt at the question. "But you want her..." Again the ambiguity and Lorenzoโs frown deepened. "If yo

Sarah awoke to the sound of angry, hushed voices and blinked groggily as she tried to get her bearings. "I don't want you anywhere near her." Sarah heard Lorenzo hiss furiously and tried to concentrate on the drama unfolding in her doorway where she could see two large men silhouetted. One was unmistakably Lorenzo, and the other...she narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to focus a bit better. It looked like her father. "She's my daughter and I'll damned well see her when I want to," the other man blustered, confirming that he was, indeed, John Malik. "So that you can damage her more than you already have?" Lorenzo asked, almost shaking with rage. "I won't let you get close enough to hurt her like that again. And you can forget about getting that heir you want anytime soon. I refuse to give you that pleasure." "Well, then stay married to her until you do, or give up the vineyard," her father sneered. "The vineyard never meant as much to me as it did my father.
