Chapter 20

Alena

When

hen we both came down from our highs, we realized what had happened. I couldn't look away from Matteo and he didn't push me away. I heard him clearly and he wasn't denying it or anything, so I wasn't wrong. As he took a few steps back, I was left sitting on the island and grabbing my shirt to cover my body. "I'm sorry it just slipped out," he said, avoiding eye contact as he picked up his own clothes.

Suddenly, it was an awkward turn, but I knew we couldn't run away and hide anymore. This was bound to happen. One of us was going to fall first and I didn't expect it to be him to let it slip. I was attracted to him ever since we kissed but I never thought I was able to develop feelings for someone like him. I kept trying to push my feelings away because I didn't want to get hurt again. Besides, he did tell me there wasn't ever going to be love involved.

So, I wasn't going to test the waters. I sticked to the original plan.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked, shifting in my spot.

His brown eyes met mine as he nodded, "I think we should. We should talk about it, Alena." -

He handed me his shirt and I quickly put it on, letting the material cover down to my thighs. Even though I wasn't wearing

anything underneath, at least I was covered for the conversation we were going to have.

I watched his every movement and I realized; I was feeling nervous.

"So you're saying you love me?"

"I've fallen I've "Matteo Malleo

love with you. These past few months were something to me, Alena. I tried to push it all away, but I couldn't help myself. You don't realize it but you're like a magnet. You attract me all the way and I can't resist you."

He cupped my face, looking straight into my eyes.

"I know what I said before we got married. I promised you loyalty, but I never promised you love. I realize that I was wrong. I can't go on and keep denying how I feel anymore. I'm in love with you and I love you for the way you are. The way you say my name, the way you smile, the way your eyes light up when you see something you like, when you pull me close and even when you're not doing anything, Alena. You've bewitched me."

"This is just going to complicate things... what if we end up hating each other?"

He shook his head, "I'm willing to take the risk. I'd rather go all the way with you to show you how much I love you and have a future with you than hide in the shadows, afraid of pursuing. If we end up hurting each other, at least we had a taste of happiness together." "You're not fooling around, aren't you?" I stood, walking away.

I just needed to step away for a little while, getting a few airs to clear my mind. Every word was genuine, and I felt it straight to my bones which terrified me.

"I don't think I can lie to you."

"What if I don't feel the same way?"

He smiled, "I can make you fall for me. I'd do anything. At least give me the chance to try and if you still don't feel anything, we can always go back to how we were."

I frowned, "We can never go back to how we were, Matteo. We got ourselves in too deep. We knew the risks and we took it. We knew we weren't supposed to sleep with each other, but we ignored that."

"I don't regret it. I really don't."

I stood still in my spot as he made his way towards me, slowly grabbing my hands and place them on his face. I felt his warmth and it made me feel comfortable. I couldn't help myself but to close my eyes. He kissed my palms, "I I love you, Alena."
