Chapter Thirty-Seven
Gualtiero
I’msittingontheterrace of the Monza villa, looking up at the stars. It’s well after midnight, and despite being tired, I can’t sleep.
I haven’t slept since Ella ran. It seems like an eternity ago when it hasn’t even been two full days. We’ll reach that mark around nine o’clock in the morning.
The stars are bright tonight. Ella loves sitting underneath the stars, and I wonder if she is as restless as I am… if she is looking at the stars just like me?
I feel she is.
Our connection through the stars is all I have with her tonight.
And it’s not enough!
I need her here with me!
I need to hold her, to feel her warmth against my skin.
Everything seems pointless without her.
I slowly shake my head, still not wanting to believe she ran.
Why, angel? Why?
Why would she run away after the night we shared? Things should have returned to normal, not fall apart completely.
I’m replaying yesterday morning in my head a million times.
I’ve fucked up… again.
Her face when she realized she could be pregnant…
While I was completely elated by the possibility, she was horrified.
She isn’t ready for it and probably thinks I duped her.
Well, I did.
I took her contraceptives away, wanting a chance to plant my seeds in her.
And I did that too.
Why can’t she see it’s so right?
Now that I found her, why wait to start our family? It would givehera new focus and help her settle into our life together.
But Thursday night? That wasn’t on my mind. Everything Ella was… her touch, her taste, her scent.
The world outside could have exploded, and I wouldn’t have cared.
We both got carried away, contraception the last thing on our minds.
Now she might be pregnant, and if I don’t find her, I might never get to see my child.
So I will stop at nothing to bring her back. A life without her is unthinkable.
