Yet, at the same time, the prospect of being close to him again filled me with a sense of longing.

Chapter 4

Dante

AsIledAngelato the living room of my family's estate, I felt a sense of pride and nervousness at the prospect of introducing her to my stepmother, older sister, and butler.

Despite the passing of three years, she has remained a constant presence in my mind.

Even during times when I was occupied with other things, thoughts of her would often arise.

Just the sight of her again stirred up feelings that I had thought were long buried, reigniting the intrigue and fascination I had always felt toward her.

Though she had suddenly disappeared from my life, the passage of time had done nothing to diminish the strong hold she had on my thoughts and emotions.

My stepmother appeared first, dressed impeccably in a designer gown and exuding an air of sophistication and elegance.

She greeted Angela warmly with a smile and a handshake.

I watched as Angela’s shoulders relaxed as the tension melted, my mother putting her at ease with her graciousness.

I adored my stepmother more than words could express.

From the moment she entered our family, she became a pillar of strength and a source of unwavering support.

She was always there for me, offering guidance and advice whenever I needed it.

Her unwavering belief in me gave me the courage to pursue my dreams and achieve my goals.

Whenever I looked at her, I was filled with a sense of gratitude and admiration for all that she had done for me and my family.

In my eyes, she was more than just a stepmother, Isabella.

She was a mother in every sense of the word.

I was always grateful for her presence in my life, and I loved and cherished her with all my heart.

Even now, as I look back on those memories, I was filled with a deep sense of love and appreciation for all that she did for me.

Next, I introduced Angela to my elder sister, Caterina, who was equally stunning in her own right.

With her bubbly personality and infectious energy, she greeted Angela with a warm hug and an excited chatter about getting to know her better.

I cared deeply about my sister and always wanted the best for her.

Even though she was older than me, I felt a responsibility to protect and guide her, and I took that role very seriously.

Throughout our childhood, she was always there for me when I needed her.

Whether it was helping me with homework or cheering me up after a tough day, especially on the days when I wasn’t able to meet up to my father’s expectations in some of the tasks he gave me.

She always made sure I knew that I could count on her.

As we grew older, our bond only grew stronger.

I always made sure to ask about her life and offer any advice or support she needed and she did the same for me.

She even knew about me and Angela.
