Kristian's pov:

the reason you get hurt is because you care , so i decided to stop caring , i decided to live to protect my only family that is left , and I believed that no matter what there is no way i can change my mind , there is no way I can fall in love or grow attached to someone else in this life ...

but then she came , the very second i looked at her face she took my breath away , but that wasn't enough to break my resolve , the second time i met her , she had saved the biggest part of me and there was no way i can forget how much i was attracted to her , and again and again , every single time i hear her voice or see her smile i can feel my will shatter into pieces and with time she became the brighter star in my dark skies, she pulled me up when i was down , and she made me open up and slowly she's heeling my biggest wounds

its been only a month since i met her , but for me she is already my queen and the mother of my child ...

"beautiful, davvero mozzafiato(really breath-taking)" i saw her smile slightly with a rosy blush on her cheek s she walked towards me

"Grazie, is everything okay? " i saw her pointing at my phone that i was still holding in my hands , right away i turned it off

"it's nothing just work , shall we go ?" i smiled as gently as i can , as i opened the door for her

" we shall"

riding in the car , after i made sure that she had her seatbelt on i started driving right away , i had already planned everything in advance , hopefully everything well turn out well

"Kris, where are we going?"

"it's a surprise "

"i don't like surprises " i smirked at how cute she was acting " well you tell where we are going please?" i saw her pout as she stared at me

"nah , not gonna work , don't give me those puppy eyes , you will have to wait , it's only half an hour ride" she slumped in her seat as she hmphed

"how was the shooting ? did you get used to it?"

"uhm , at first i was really nervous , but after a couple of minutes everything went smoothly , but i didn't see the photos , i want to see them on the day their out or i will be very nervous "

"your doing great babe " i smiled at her as she rested her head on my shoulder "get back on your seat , your gonna hurt your neck "

"uhm , i am okay, how is Noah? who is staying with him ?"

"mateo and Adam are staying over , they volunteered , mateo was saying stuff about being called uncle,, but i didn't understand a thing " i felt scarlet shake as she laughed with her head still on my shoulder

" yeah yesterday he said the same thing to me , it looks like Noah isn't speaking a lot around the others , and he hasn't called mateo uncle yet , that's why he sounded like crying " i laughed outload at her words

"well he is my son , he is gonna be a man of a few words, we are here, come on lets go ..."

scarlet's pov :

i felt the car stop beside a small house in the middle of nowhere and beside the house was big lake , the house looked old and traditional , it was very nice , beside the house stood up a man in a butler clothes as kristian walked towards my side of the car , he opened the door for me and helped me out , the butler came towards us and bowed slightly

"welcome sir, welcome miss, please come in " i smiled gently to the old butler as kristian held my hand and started walking towards the entrance , as we entered the house i started noticing how beautiful it was on the inside , it was cosy and old built , it had a small fire place and a cosy living room , kristian continued walking in the house walking further in , all of a sudden we stopped in front of a big wooden door

"close your eyes " i looked at him with a look that says are you serious

"come on, please *principessa " i let out a sigh as i closed my eyes , and all of a sudden i felt the cold air hit me as the door in front of me opened and with my hand in kristian he started pulling me with him

"can i open my eyes now?" i asked as we stopped moving all of a sudden

"yeah you can " slowly i opened my eyes to see kristian standing in front of me and in his hands was a big bouquet of roses and behind him was a table sitting that has the whole view of the lake and the scene looked just fascinating

"wow" i took a step forward to stand in front of kristian "this is beautiful "

"not as beautiful as you " kristian said as he gave me the bouquet of rosses , i smiled again as i hugged the roses and took a deep breath of their fragrant smell , they were my favourite , i had mentioned it before once to him and he remembered

"Rosa 'Mister Lincoln', my favourite, you actually remembered "

"i will never forget , come on lets set down , you haven't eaten yet " kristian pulled my hand and helped me take a seat , behind us there was the sound of music and with the sound of nature everything felt so unreal

"thank you Kris, this is really beautiful " as i was speaking the butler who welcomed us in came with plates in his hand and with a bottle of red wine , he filled our glasses and asked us if we need anything and on his face was always a gentle smile

"this butler he really has gentle smile ?" kristian nodded his head

"yeah he used to work to my parents , when we were young we would come here to spend the vacations and holidays , it was quite simple and calm , away from all of the cities noise , and he was always here making sure we are well taken care of " kristian started talking about his old memories with a gentle smile on his face , lately he has been doing this a lot , he stopped changing the subject when we talk about his family and he started talking about them more and tell me more and more stuff that happened in the past

"it must have been an amazing times , your family sound really kind "

"they were , they would have loved you "

"you don't know that !!"

"I do ! i choose you after all " i saw a smirk on his face

"uhm , the arrogant richy is back "

"he never went away " we both busted out laughing as we continued talking about a lof of stuff

"what about your parents ? what are they like ?" i felt my hand stiffen mid air as i stared at the lake beside me

"they are normal i guess , or at least they were "

"what do you mean ?"

"my parents were always deeply in love , my father doted on my mother and she loved him back as equally , they were happily married 7 years when they had me , and my mother used to tell me that i brought more happiness to their lives , but after they had me for three years they tried to get pregnant again but it never worked , i remember some memories were my father used to blame my mother for not giving him a son , and after 3 months of my 4th birthday my mother found out that my father had cheated on her and that his girlfriend was pregnant and like that he left us , the first couple of days my mother refused to divorce him and she was quit stubborn but after a week my father came home begging my mother to give him another chance saying that his girlfriend wasn't pregnant after all and she was lying to him , and that's when hell broke loose , my mother turned crazy right away and she started laughing like a maniac and she throwed the divorce paper at his face saying that it serves him right, she packed her stuff and left , I remember when she was leaving that i ran after her and begged her to take me away with her , but don you know what she said ..." i took a deep breath as i looked at the man in front of me who was looking at me with a loving look in his eyes , i smiled a bit at how gentle his eyes were , they felt like a warm rays of sun

"she said : if only you were a boy , i wouldn't be this miserable , and i would be happy , i wish you were never born... and after that she disappeared and the next day i woke up to find that my father has left too and that's how i was sent to my grandmother and you know the rest " i felt a big warm hand on mine holding it tight

"it's their lose , they must have been blind to not see how amazing and great of a person you are "

"thank you "

"your welcome *principessa, now say! would you do me the honour of having this dance with me ? " kristian said as he stood beside me and gave a slight bow , i smiled at him and nodded my head

and that's how we continued the night , with the gentle talking, and holding hands and walking around and with each passing minutes i felt more sure

that this man , is the man of my dreams ...
