Sam carefully zipped up her dress and looked at herself in the mirror in the walk-in closet inside one of the rooms in Damian’s luxurious apartment in Rome on a late Thursday afternoon. She turned sideways to make sure that there are no creases before she finally put on her black pumps and walked back to the bedroom.

After staying in Bassano for almost two months in his family home, Damian finally decided to bring Sam to Rome with him. It was an emotional goodbye between Sam and Aurora with Sam crying hard that Damian had to reprimand her gently.

“Oh, shush, Damian,” Aurora chided as she hugged Sam tightly, rubbing her back. She kissed Sam on her side of the head. “This just tells you that you should visit me more often.”

Sam saw Damian rolling his eyes in amusement.

They left Bassano del Grappa with his private plane and Sam was still sobbing. Damian finally told her to take her medication to calm herself down. He knew that she had stopped taking them after that dinner with his relat

    Five years later…“Doing alright, Sam?”Taking a deep breath, she looked up before responding. “Yes, I’m fine,” she responded heavily. She wiped some sweat off her forehead and inhaled deeply before letting it out. “Just a few more.”Sam, mustering up her strength pushed herself as she continued the last few miles of the marathon, she had organized to raise funds for the animal foundation she had built as well as the cancer foundation that Darren has been sponsoring for a long while.She felt frustrated when a few more runners passed by her that she suddenly felt heavy.“An ultra marathon?” Damian exclaimed, looking at Sam hardly. “Sweetheart, look I know that you had been running for a long time, but can you hurdle such? It averages nine to ten hours! It’s not that I don’t believe in you, but what if something happens?”Sam stood up and sat on his lap, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.“I’m going to be fine and it’s for the foundation,” she answered softly. “And that number of h

    Two Months Later…A little over an hour more and Sam will be walking down the aisles where Damian will be waiting for her to exchange ‘I do’s”. Smoothing her dress gently, Sam checked herself one last time before standing up inside the hotel’s VIP Executive Suite on a Thursday afternoon.“You look beautiful,” Ara commented with a smile, tears welling up around her eyes. She took a deep breath, fanning herself. “Oh, gosh! Why the heck am I crying? It’s supposed to be a happy day!”Sam smiled at Ara with feeling.“You’re making me cry as well,” she responded with a catch in her voice.“You’re going to ruin your make-up, Sam,” Vanessa interrupted warningly as she patted Sam’s cheek lightly. “There’ll be no time to start over again.”They laughed at the reprimand and Sam took a deep and slow breath to stop the tears from coming out of her eyes. She looked down at the engagement ring that Damian had proposed to her with and her heart tightened.She remembered when she was younger, with her

    Sam opened her eyes the following day and turned towards the balcony, watching the sun’s rays breaking through the sheer curtains. She smiled at the simple beauty that she is looking at before checking the time and saw the clock read eight in the morning.Turning slowly towards Damian, she saw him still in a deep sleep, his shoulders rising gently with his breathing.She looked at him lovingly, memorizing his features.Raising her hand, she lightly traced his eyebrows down to his cheek and his lips. She remembered his lips that explored her body last night and how she loved every second of it.She looked at her hand with the engagement ring that Damian had given her and smiled, touched that he even considered the color scale of the blue diamond which is faint blue. It would go perfectly with whatever hues that she will be wearing.“You’re everything to me, Sam,” Damian confessed to her last night after he made love to her. “The thought of losing you made me go crazy. I’m never going t

    Sam placed down her brush and carefully checked that she had tied her hair neatly, turning to both sides. Turning towards her bed, she walked towards it and untied the ribbon of the box that was placed on top.She removed the lid and it revealed a lilac butterfly sleeveless high waist irregular swing midi dress. After putting it on, Sam walked towards the full-length mirror beside the dresser and smiled when she noted that the intricate silhouette flattered her figure and the fabric is very light. She also made sure that the breast pads are in place since it looks better without wearing a bra.She had also noted that the dress is in her favorite color and she assumed Ara had made that decision. Taking her phone, she took a picture and sent it to Ara.“Thanks for helping Damian choose the dress,” she typed with a light smile. “As always, you know my color. The dress feels wonderful.”She placed her phone down while seeing Ara typing a reply and put on a pair of low-heeled sandals that

    Damian handed his bag to one of his bodyguards and a box to one household staff with instructions, as he went out from his car on an early Wednesday night and proceeded towards the entrance at Stratham. He immediately took off his coat, unbutton the top two buttons of his shirt and loosen his tie.“Where’s my wife?” He asked when Winston greeted him while checking his phone. “How is she doing? Has she eaten?”“At the garden by the pool, sir,” Winston replied. “Madam barely ate her lunch but I convinced her to eat the fruit bowl I gave this afternoon.”“We’ll have dinner in an hour with guests. Frederick already coordinated with the chef,” Damian informed, nodding at the butler’s response. He pocketed his phone after answering a message. “Call him as well. I had him do something and needs to coordinate with you.”“Right away, Mr. McLaren,” Winston answered.Damian then headed towards the glass doors and pushed it open, his eyes searching for Sam. He found her sitting by one of the loun
