Gianna

A week later

The hot sun on my skin was just so peaceful, along with the soft thudding of Nico's heart beneath me. We were on the beach again, something that has now become a ritual for us each morning. It just felt great to laze around and talk about the most random things on the planet, and then once we got tired of talking, we would make slow, silent love where words really didn't matter.

Today, Nico was lost in some book while I just lay with my head on his chest, soaking up the sun and the sea breeze. Supporting his book with one hand, his fingers ran softly through my hair, lulling me to sleep. And I was almost at the sweet spot of fading away into the dream world when his vibrating phone distracted me.

"Ugh..." I groaned, gazing up at him. "You said no phone calls."

"Except family..." he said before frowning at the screen. "It's Leo. Probably want to check if I am hurting you. He still doesn't trust me."

"He always trusted you," I said. "Even when you left. Pick up...why

    Song: Love Me Like You Do by Ellie GouldingGianna2 years laterThe afternoon sun poured like honey across the beach, glinting off the soft waves that curled and broke near the shore. I sat beneath our cabana, my easel set up in front of me, brush in hand and streaks of blue and gold paint glistening on my fingers.I wasn’t sketching designs today — no fabrics, no gowns, no lines for a collection. Just the ocean, the sky… and the two figures playing in the water.My two favorite people in the world.Nico and our son, Dantay Maximino Baldocchi.He was beautiful, the apple of our eyes. All boyish mischief and sunshine. He was literally a mini-version of Nico except for the golden hair he got from me. But god, was he beautiful. My life before he came was already beautiful, but my life after Dantay… that was heaven.Because through him, I got to see Nico as a father.He wasn’t perfect — not even close. There were days when he’d get flustered because the baby wouldn’t stop crying, or pani

    Note: Guys, the Epilogue and the bonus are coming on Sunday, and we are officially done then! NicoI stood by the window, watching the canals of Venice shimmer under the soft, amber light of late afternoon. Gondolas glided lazily through the water, their oars slicing ripples that caught the reflections of the old palazzos like liquid gold. The air was crisp, the kind that carried the faint scent of salt and wood and time.Peace.It was such a strange thing to feel — peace. For most of my life, I didn’t believe it existed for men like me. And yet, here I was, standing in a centuries-old Venetian palazzo, waiting for my best friend to get married, with a calm heart and a steady pulse.The last four months had been nothing like the life I used to know. From pain, fear, and isolation, my world had shifted into something that almost felt unreal, to love, warmth, laughter, and the quiet rhythm of ordinary happiness. Each morning I woke up beside Gianna and felt… whole. As if I had finally

    GiannaThe next morning, we were on our way home. Or at least, that’s what I thought.My mind was still tangled in Maximus’s letter. His words had looped through my head all night, refusing to let me sleep. I hadn’t even noticed when the car slowed down and came to a stop.“We’re here,” Nico said softly.His voice pulled me out of the haze. I blinked and turned to look out the window — only to freeze.This wasn’t home. It was the old Baldocchi mansion.My heart skipped a beat. “Wh… what are we doing here?” I asked. “I thought we were going home?”“We were,” Nico said, nodding slowly. “But before we start our new life, I want to show you something.” His eyes flickered toward the mansion, dark and unreadable. “Something really important. It’s here.”“Oh… okay,” I said quietly, trying not to panic. Because behind Nico’s calm tone, I saw something else — fear. It lived in the way his jaw clenched, in the shadow that passed through his eyes.“Come,” he said, getting out first. He rounded t

    By evening, Maximus's lawyer, Eve Sullivan, has arrived, just as she had promised. Nico and I were in the living room when the housekeeper showed her in. She looked the same — sharp suit, neat hair, that calm, businesslike expression that didn’t give away much.“Gianna,” she greeted me with a polite smile before glancing at Nico. “Nico. It’s good to see you both.”“You too,” I said, standing up.“Well, how are you doing?” she asked, her tone softer now. “Everything that happened… what I read in the papers… It’s just insane.”“Yeah,” I nodded slowly, not wanting to get into it. “It’s been… a lot. But we’re getting through.”She nodded in understanding before adjusting the file in her hands. “I was hoping we could talk in private, Gianna. If that’s alright.”Nico immediately straightened beside me. “Anything you need to say, you can say in front of me.”Eve hesitated, clearly debating whether to insist, then sighed. “Alright. If that’s what you prefer.”I nodded. “It is.”She took a sea
