I didn’t know what love felt like, and Salvatore acted like it was so obvious. Everything I felt was just simply love, and I was too dumb to see it?

Fuck, it was overwhelming.

I tried to gather my words as Salvatore kept laughing at me, and I asked, “So if I tell her I love her, that won’t be a lie.”

Salvatore snorted. “Man, just go and tell her what have you told me. Any sane person can see how desperately in love with her you are.”

“Fuck,” I murmured. “I could have kept her here.”

“Oh no,” Salvatore said and laughed more.

Normally his mocking would frustrate me. It didn’t know. I was too amazed by the news he gave me. I was amazed by my emotions. All those intense feelings Priscilla gave me were… love.

I thought they were not because… “I love Rosetta, but what I feel for Priscilla is much more different. How can it be love?”

Salvatore stopped laughing and seriously said, “Antonio, I love you.” I tensed again, but he quickly continued, “I love Mia too but believe me, what I feel for your sister is so much different than what I feel for you.”

I nodded in understanding. It was still weird for me. I still needed to work on it. I needed time. Yet there was one fact I was focused on.

“I am in love with Priscilla,” I murmured.

“Yes, you fucking are!”

“I love her,” I whispered again and felt my heart fill with… love. I loved her so fucking much.

Chapter 35

Priscilla

When I woke up in the morning, I was ready to go back home. I was ready to go back to Antonio and deal with our problems so we could actually celebrate our new baby.

Fighting didn’t suit us. Only love did.

Even if he was not ready to accept his feelings, it was okay. All the words he gave me until now were enough for me. I just needed to shut off my pregnancy hormones and not blow up on his face.

I was happy with him, and he needed to know that.

Without wasting any time, I texted Antonio I was coming back home in an hour. I thought about staying a little longer and having breakfast here, but that was a plan for a different day. Today I wanted to have my breakfast with Antonio even though it might count as brunch for him.

He had to cook whatever I wanted for me. I was pregnant.

I giggled like a schoolgirl at the thought. It still felt like a dream. I was not expecting this so soon, but it made me happy.

It also made me scared, and I needed Antonio to fight that off.

I also texted Dario to pick me up in an hour. I didn’t want Antonio to come to get me. Car was not an ideal place for our little reunion. Maybe it was stupid to think of it as a reunion, but I knew Antonio was going to accept it as one just to make me happy.

Before I hopped in the shower, I informed Kira about my plans with a text because she was really worried about me last night. We didn’t talk after I talked to Valerio, so she was a little behind on my fast schedule.

I washed quickly and got dressed in fresh pair of sweats and a t-shirt with hearts on it that Antonio sent for me. He acted like my cute clothes annoyed him, but he still sent me one. He loved them like he loved me.

I was sure of it.

Just when I was braiding my hair before leaving, a knock sounded from my door.

“Come in,” I yelled. It was probably Mia.

The door opened. “Hey,” said a strong male voice. It was too smooth to be Valerio, and I knew who it was even before I looked up.
