Your suitcase is packed. The papers are signed. Your heart? Shattered.
You stand at the door, hand reaching for the handle, when a loud thud stops you. Luciano slams his palm flat against the wood beside your head, trapping you in place.
His voice is a low, deadly whisper behind you. “You’re not leaving.”
You freeze.
“I signed the papers, Luciano,” you say, forcing your voice to stay calm. “There’s nothing left—”
He spins you around and pins you to the door, eyes burning into yours. “There’s everything left,” he growls. “You think I give a damn about those papers? About that doctor?”
You blink, breath caught in your throat. “You wanted a child. I can’t give you that. What do you still want from me?”
Luciano leans in, forehead pressed to yours, and murmurs, “You. I want you.”
You open your mouth to argue—but he silences you with a kiss. Hot. Desperate. Like a man starved. He pulls back just enough to look you dead in the eye.
“I won’t stop making babies with you,” he says, voice hoarse. “Not because I need a damn heir—because I need you, screaming my name while I fill you up over and over again until you're too sore to walk.”
Your knees nearly buckle. His hands slide to your hips, fingers gripping like he owns you.
“I want you swollen. Marked. Claimed. Every inch of you ruined by me.”
You gasp. “Luciano…”
He cuts you off, mouth at your ear now. “I’ll take you on every surface in this house until you're begging me to stop trying—knowing I won’t. Knowing I’ll keep going until fate gives in.”
His hand finds your thigh, lifting it as his body presses against yours, heat radiating like fire.
“You're not just my wife anymore. You're my obsession. My addiction. My f*cking religion.”
“So please, stay, {{user}}” He begs.
