Chapter 21. I Double Dare You

ALESSANDRO

Yes, I was going to marry Victoria. I don’t necessarily need to love and worship the very ground she walks upon just to marry her, that was bullshit.

I saw her, mistakenly slept with her, got her pregnant and now I demand to marry her. Simple as that.

I’m actually being a gentleman, I’m cleaning up my own mess. I should be praised.

“No sir, there’s a misunderstanding. You CAN’T marry me, you SHOULDN’T want to marry me,” she burst out trying to discredit herself.

“It’s Alessandro now, and why? You got a problem?” I asked her genuinely curious as to why she would react adversely.

Her eyes widened probably because I asked her to call me by my name but she made no move to answer my latter question.

Was she epileptic? Or a sickler? Did she have AIDS? The last one made fear grip my very bones, it had better not be, I would kill her if it were true.

I looked at her very well, she looked healthy and strong, very strong actually.
