WILLOWWe were back from France, although I didn’t want the experience to end. I had a life back here and my duty as Luciano’s wife.I place my hands over my lips as I think back to the last kiss we had at the top of the wheel. I glance over at Luciano as he fixes his burgundy tie. This is the first time in months since I have seen luciano in a color other grey, black or crème.His grey eyes falls on me and I draw in a sharp breathe because he just caught me staring up at him.“Do I look that attractive?” His asks with a sheepish grin.“I am just surprised to see you in color,” I say as I quickly rake my eyes across his body. “Ashley, forced me. Claiming you would like it,” He throws a stare at me before he returns on the screen of his phone.“I don’t know why you feel insecure when you could literally wear a wet sponge and women would still be after you like ants and sugar,” I compliment indirectly before I look away.“Technically, that means you find me attractive?” I can hear the

WILLOWKenzo’s hands rests on my arms and I shiver from the roughness of the top of his fingers. I move forward slightly losing his touch before I turn around to see his face. “Long time no see mi amore, how was your trip in France?” He asks as he runs his hands through his slicked back hair.“Fuck off Kenzo,” I growl at him and the smile on his face only becomes bigger. “This wasn’t you reaction when you were dancing with me a few days back ,” He says as he moves back.What the fuck is wrong with him? What is he even talking about. “You don’t have to act like a lunatic all the time,” I say to him before I take Luciano’s hands. “As you can see I am busy with my husband,” I say before I turn towards the crowd. Luciano did not oblige, he followed me instead. “Mrs roman,” An interview calls and I smile at her. I recognized her from E! The last time I had an interview in my fathers event she was the same person.“Would just give me a minute or two? A short interview people are kill

WILLOWHe looks down at me and his gray becomes darker. His long fingers tucks my hair behind my ear. I could feel his hot breathe on my forehead. I just realized how short of a rat I am.“Did you? . . .” He says softly before he searches my eyes like they hold the truth he is searching for.“Did I What?” I ask almost not sure whether my voice was audible enough.His gray eyes falls to my lips and my stomach feels funny. Why is having this effect on me? My face is red from all this. He takes a step forward and I move back but I lost my balance and my ass makes contact with the bed. “What you said during the interview,” He says as he looks down at me. He just a few inches away and I can’t help but know that his lower body is a few inches away from my face.It is taking a lot of scolding and mental screaming for me not to look. I gulp down spit and my eyes widens when I realized I said yes. This is supposed to be a secret. I didn’t want to ruin the relationship I have with him. Now, wh

*Willow’s POV***I wake up warm, wrapped in Luciano's strong arms. I raise my head and look up at his chiseled, handsome face, and smile. The thought of waking up to this every morning is bliss.I cuddle closer, indulging and tracing my hands on his face. Yesterday was everything to me, and the memory of our sex was enough to make me want it again this morning."Hey, beautiful," he whispers, drawing me even closer, his lips finding mine and he kisses me softly. I raise my head feeling shy and kiss him back. "Yes," I answer. “How was your night” he asks and I turn red. “Oh…it was” I start to say and he grins. “You’re blushing” he points out. I cover my cheeks in embarrassment smiling too."I'll get you warm milk," he says, taking his hands off me momentarily. I smile, wrapping myself in the cozy duvet as he heads out.He comes back with a warm mug, and hands it to me along with an envelope. I frown a bit wondering where he got it from."What's this?" I ask, accepting the envelope,

willow forced politeness masked my turmoil as I struggled to find words. "Beth? It's been a while," I managed to say, though my tone betrayed the lingering pain. "I know I messed up, but I needed to see you. Can we talk?" She uttered. The internal conflict within me intensified. My desire for closure warred with the lingering hurt. Part of me wanted to return inside and slam the door shut, shutting out the painful memories, while another part yearned for an explanation from her. At least, just to hear what the bitch would say. "Talk about what? Answer me, talk about what exactly?" My eyes narrowed while my voice taut with suppressed anger. "I'm really sorry, and I'm here to ask for your forgiveness. Please, kindly find a space in your heart to forgive me." "Forgive you? Do you have any idea what you did, Beth? You betrayed not only our friendship but my trust." "Willow, I messed up. I never meant to hurt you. I can't change the past, but I need you to understand how sorry I am

" I can see you love your husband so much and you really want to be with him. From my discussion with him, he seems to be a good one."His words resonated, reaching the depths of my heart as he continued, "I've come to know Luciano, and I've accepted him wholeheartedly. But I want you to know that love is not just about embracing the person, but also about embracing their journey, their dreams, and their flaws. It's about learning and growing together."A pause lingered in the air, allowing his words to settle, before he added, "Treat him with kindness, my dear. In the ebb and flow of life, kindness is a beacon that illuminates even the darkest corners of the heart. Learn to communicate openly. If he ever tries to hurt you in extreme wats, don't cease to inform me, please."In that moment, mum entered with a tray of

The next day, my parents requested that Luciano and I join them for a discussion. I was informed over a call."Hope nothing is wrong?" I asked, as the summons left me curious and a bit apprehensive."Of course, there isn't. We only want to discuss an important issue with you both." my parents assured me that it was nothing alarming. With a sense of curiosity tinged with mild concern, I informed Luciano about it and he agreed to accompany me since both our presence was required.Getting there, we all settled into the living room.
