He scoffed and leaned against the wall behind with hands in his pants pockets "Why? Because I have money?" What? "Are you impressed by this mansion?" I can be scared of Dad but he is no one to address me as a gold digger and say bullshit. "I don't care if you take me as a gold digger. You are no one who I am bound to explain anything to."

He held my waist pulling me closer, suddenly again that feeling of nervousness filled me.

Pendal is a beacon of light-a girl who always sees the good in everyone, her bubbly character capable of brightening the darkest days. Yet, her kind heart has endured its share of heartbreak, especially with a boyfriend too weak to defend her against his disapproving mother. She loved him anyway, clinging to the hope of a brighter future. Donald-a wealthy businessman who relocated to the States to oversee the launch of a new branch. Their worlds collide in a way neither of them could have foreseen, bound together by an incident shrouded in mystery and misunderstanding and a sudden marriage. Pendal, a stranger to him, somehow becomes a name on everyone's lips, a woman others claim is his lover. Their destinies are intertwined in ways that will reshape their lives forever. In the web of lies, deceit, and the echoes of an unexpected connection, they must decide: will they take control of their fate, or will they leave it to destiny to decide? He looked away and immediately brought his eyes back. "Oh, I wasn't avoiding that... I just don't know what best answer to give because look at me," he used a hand gesture. "Do you think I am physically strong enough to give the doctors a hard time? It is their fault if they can't understand what I want and what I don't want," he continued. "And I assume what you wanted is for them to not treat you anymore. Is that it? There is a 100% chance that you will walk again. You have to take that." "Marry me then!" "Excuse me, what???"

To save her family from ruin, Ally agrees herself as a maid to Dante, a cold and powerful Mafia lord her father owes a dangerous debt. What begins as a desperate sacrifice slowly turns into a tangled web of secrets, and forbidden desire-where duty clashes with a love neither of them expected. Snippet; Dante's gaze locked onto mine, and for a moment, everything else disappeared. There was no staff, no house, no duties. Just us. "I mean..." He paused, taking a step closer, and this time, he didn't hesitate. His hand lifted to my face, his thumb tracing my jawline, soft and slow. "You mean everything," he said, his voice thick, rough. "And I'm done pretending that I don't feel it." I gasped, the words hitting me harder than I expected. It wasn't just the kiss now. It was the admission. The truth hanging in the air between us. His feelings-his real feelings. I didn't know what to say. Didn't know if I should say anything at all. But then, before I could even blink, his lips were on mine again. This time, there was no hesitation. No pulling back. Just him, taking what he wanted. And I couldn't stop myself from wanting it too.
