“D-daughter?”

“Yes. She’s going to be as perfect and as beautiful as you are.” I couldn’t help but smile.

“You’re not angry with me?”

My smile faltered. “Why would I be?”

“We never discussed this.”

I chuckled. “I want it all, Francesca. You, children, a house with a white picket fence. Even that gray rat of yours, as long as you’re by my side.”

She placed a hand over her still flat belly. “I’m pregnant.” She smiled for the first time since I broke the news and then…she cried.

I held her while she did, and I knew those were tears of joy because Francesca wouldn’t stop telling me how her dream had come true, and how happy she was.

Francesca never had a proper family, one that loved her unconditionally. But us, we would always be here for her to love and cherish her as she deserved.

“Your heart is my favorite place to be,” I confessed. “So, take care of it. I love you with all that I have in me.”

“I love you, too, Cassio Moretti, with every fiber in my body. I love you beyond what’s possible.”

That night, I lay beside her with her tucked in my arms while laying a hand on her belly where my daughter was growing. I never wanted or even dreamed of this, but now I couldn’t see my life without them. Suddenly they became everything, and I would protect and love Francesca and my daughter for as long as I lived.

Francesca was always my maddest temptation. The one girl I could never stay away from and could never forget. And now… now she would be forever mine. Forever Mrs. Moretti.

THE END
