Gianna’s POV

It hurt that he had left.

It hurt with a sharp, suffocating ache that squeezed my throat until I could barely draw breath.

Worse than his absence was the crushing weight of knowing I was the reason he had walked out.

I hated myself for it. I hated the cruel words I’d flung at him, but deep down, I felt like I hadn’t had a choice.

Calling him a killer had been my desperate, messy defense mechanism, my only way to create a barrier between us and avoid him at all costs before he de

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 123

    Gianna’s POV“You see, all these years, I had to lay low.”Viola crossed her long legs and reached for the glass of wine sitting on the small table beside her. She swirled the red liquid slowly, watching it stain the sides of the glass before bringing it to her lips.“There were times I wanted to walk straight up to Roman and demand answers for what he did to me.”“There were nights I dreamed about standing in front of him and watching the expression on his face when he realized I was still alive.” Her lips twisted into a bitter smile. “But I couldn't. Not until I was ready.”I watched her carefully, trying to understand how a woman who had supposedly been dead for years could sit in front of me with so much hatred in her eyes and speak about Roman as though she still had a claim over him.“Did he tell you?” she suddenly asked.“Tell me what?”“That he tried to kill me?” Her voice sharpened. “That he killed my family, too?”My stomach tightened.I had heard pieces of Roman's past, b

    Gianna’s POVIt hurt that he had left.It hurt with a sharp, suffocating ache that squeezed my throat until I could barely draw breath. Worse than his absence was the crushing weight of knowing I was the reason he had walked out. I hated myself for it. I hated the cruel words I’d flung at him, but deep down, I felt like I hadn’t had a choice. Calling him a killer had been my desperate, messy defense mechanism, my only way to create a barrier between us and avoid him at all costs before he destroyed me completely.Yet, after he slammed that front door and left me alone, every wall I’d built began to crumble.I was lying to myself.During that entire frantic drive toward the Bellini estate, my stomach had remained tied in agonizing knots. My hand trembled against the steering wheel as I tried calling Roman, once, twice, several times. Every attempt went straight to voicemail, his silence heavy and deafening.I had left my place after Vivianne had convinced me desperately hoping to e

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 121

    Roman’s POVI looked up sharply.“What?”“I want to give her your name. You've helped me through everything, and I want her to carry something that reminds me of you.”I looked down at the baby in my arms, unable to answer immediately.I had helped Raina because I didn't want her to be hurt. I had protected her because I had promised I would.But I had never expected to become part of her child's life in this way.“You don't have to do that,” I finally said.Her smile faded a little.“You've done so much for me. I don't want to be a burden to you anymore.”I looked at Raina, then down at the sleeping baby in my arms.“You're not a burden to me, Raina,” I told her.She gave me a small smile, but I could see the sadness hiding behind it. She had been through enough, and the last thing I wanted was for her to believe she was nothing but a problem I had to solve.“Right, then I want to name her Ramona,” she said, glancing at the baby. “Obviously, I can't name her Roman. Imagine having two

    Roman’s POV“Can I see her first?”“No, sir. You cannot enter right now.”I stared at the nurse, wondering if she understood who she was talking to. I had spent the last few hours watching people run in and out of that room while Raina screamed in pain, and now someone wanted me to stand outside like I didn't have the right to know what was happening to her.“I fucking want to see her right now!”“Sir, she's being prepared for…”“Boss.”Luca's voice interrupted her. Before I could say another word, he stepped beside me, pulled the nurse to one side, and spoke quietly to her. I had no idea what he told her, but after a few seconds, she nodded and returned to me.“You can go in, sir, but please don't interfere with the doctors.”I didn't bother answering. I pushed past her and entered the room.The first thing I heard was Raina crying.The second thing I noticed was how pale she looked.She was lying on the bed, her hair stuck to her sweaty forehead, and her fingers were gripping the

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 119

    Gianna’s POVI swallowed hard.“Then why does it sound like you're afraid of her?”“Because you don't understand what she's capable of.”“Then make me understand, Roman!”I was tired of half-truths. I was tired of being the woman he kissed in private but kept in the dark about the things that mattered. I wanted to know who Viola was, what she had done, and why the mention of her name could turn the man standing before me into someone I barely recognized.Roman opened his mouth, but before he could answer, the door burst open.Luca strode into the room, his expression so serious that I immediately turned toward him.“She's bleeding, boss.”My heart dropped.“Who's bleeding?” He asked, rushing toward Luca.For one terrible second, I forgot that I was angry with him. I forgot that I had been planning to leave him. All I could think about was the possibility that someone was hurt.Roman turned sharply toward Luca.“Who?”“Raina,” Luca answered. “Damian is waiting outside. He said her fat

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 118

    Gianna’s POV“I heard you right and clear, Gianna,” Roman said, his voice low and dangerous. “But the dead cannot rise again. The living…”“But the living what, Roman?”The words escaped me before he could finish, and I laughed bitterly because I was tired of standing in front of this man and feeling like I knew nothing about him.“Who are you, really?” I demanded, blinking back the tears burning behind my eyes. “Some days, I think I know you, even if it is just a little, and then you turn around and give me more reasons to doubt everything.”“Every time I think I understand you, I discover something else. So tell me, Roman, who the hell are you?”His jaw tightened.“Gianna, repeat what you just said about Viola.”“Are you even listening to me?”“Of course, I am.”He moved slowly toward me, closing the space between us until my body remembered what my heart was desperately trying to forget. This was the same man whose arms had made me feel safe, whose voice could calm me even when t
