Isabella POVThe next morning, I'm worried about Dominic, “I mean he hasn't picked up my call in days” I say into the phone Bianca making noises from the other side“Yeah not since he left with Grace, I think you should chill, head to work and we can see later during the day, I came bearing gifts from Egypt” she giggles into the phone.“Alright, I’ll see you later,” I say ending the call, I turn to the mirror the blue suit I wore today wrapping around my body.My phone dings again and I see a message from my mother-in-law“Go to Dominic office and personally pick up the auction documents for the charity event” I read the message to myself rolling my eyes, the auction is in a few days and I've been doing everything myself, with no help from her or Dominic. The sun reflects on my seat when I push the door of my office open, on the couch seated lazily is Raffaelle.“Raffaelle” I call out his name “What are you doing here?” I turn to look at the time, “And so early in the morning?” I dr

ISABELLA POVThe documents in my hand feel heavy as I stand up ready to question his assistant about them, but she probably knows nothing about it.I grab the auction document, quickly leaving the room in a rush, “I heard she seduced him and stole him from Grace” one of the personal assistants says her back turned to me“I heard her family is broke and that's why she married him” the second one concludes adding to their gossip“I heard she got pregnant and trapped him,” another says her eyes looking between both her friends and they land on me“Hmph” I cough out loud prompting them to turn to me.“How about instead of gossiping about how I married my husband you should focus on your job” I roll my eyes walking back towards the elevator.*****“This is a lot,” I yawn to myself, I've been up all night correcting The Deluca finances, and finding all the mistakes I could.I close the document looking around the dark office, Dominic had made for me, it's been three days and he is still no

ISABELLA POV“Call the sales representatives, I want to have a conversation with them about their numbers, they are quite concerning,” I tell my assistant when I notice shock on everyone's face outside of the office, I raise a brow at that, what's happening? Soon a figure appears behind my doors, a bouquet of like and daisies over his arm, his crisp black suit holding his body, “Mr Deluca” my assistant is quick, pulling the door open to reveal his form.My eyes remain on his, unshattering, “You may leave us” he turns to my assistant She lets out a squeal walking past him, he steps in closing the door behind him, “No privacy?” he raises a brow at me.“I have blinds,” I say in a clipped tone, turning down to the documents on my table, my forehead scrunching in a frown, confusion rolling through me, what are you doing here anyways?” I turn my head back up to him.He sighs, the words feeling heavy on his lips.“Well?” I raise a brow at him.“Can I be offered a seat at least?” he raises

ISABELLA POV So today was not going to be that day, we were in the sky for so long, that Dominic stops tormenting me for once and sleeps through the entire flight.Without my phone to at least tell Bianca about this new development, I can't gossip, all I can do it watch the TV screen over and over again.“We will be landing soon, please fasten your seat belt” I hear the captains voice over the intercom “Finally I whisper turning I go to Dominic seat by my side, his unbuckled, his eyes closed and his breathing slow, it's the most peaceful and innocent I've seen him, I decide not to disturb him, and buckle him myself.Slowly I reach for the seat belt but he is quicker, his fingers clutch over my neck by reflex and the other pulls out a dagger I've never seen before.My eyes go wide as I grab his arm clawing at them, it takes a while for his vision to close in on me and release me easily.“I’m sorry,” he says immediately, panic in his eyes, “I didn't mean to,”I cough in my seat, turn

ISABELLA POV“Dominic” I call out my eyes filling with tears, “how did you?” I pick up the jewel from the table, while my dad had his gambling issues the first time, we had a family crest, a flower neckpiece made from rubies and silver, it cost millions of dollars and my father had sold it, it belonged to me and was our family heirloom but the family was much more important we needed the money so I gave it up while kicking and screaming while my father's guards held me down.They took it 5 years years ago and I never saw it again, and today it's sitting in the palm of my fingers, delicate as ever, “how did you know about this?” I turn to him, my eyes shining with tears, “This was taken away from me 5 years ago to pay off my father's gambling debt” My hand cups my mouth, i won't cry, but the tearworks start, and the tears falling down my eyes like s waterfall.“You will be surprised Isabella, the few days I was in Paris, I attended an auction” he leans forward, his eyes filled with sin
