Jasmine
"You know what? Your beauty never fades, Jasmine. Anytime I saw your beautiful face and heard your sweet voice, it was as if all the doubts and fears in my heart faded away. You are my strength to face all my enemies, I am holding on to my promises to you and it is the reason why I am still fighting." I bit my lips because he said.
"Stop teasing me, Romano." I turned my gaze away from him and he stopped the car as he held my hand.
"I am serious, Jasmine. You are the most precious gem I have now. Weath can't replace you in my heart. A lot of things have happened to me and so many women have come into my life after the death of Evelyn but you are the only one who makes my heart beat again. I love you so much, Jasmine and I will never allow them to hurt you." He stared deeply into my eyes and I couldn't hold my tears anymore as they flowed down my eyes. He wiped my tears using his thumb.
Those heartfelt words that came out from his mouth melted my heart in happiness. Yes, I am happy because he never stopped telling me how much he loves me and soon I will reciprocate his love.
"Come on, Romano. We should keep going. My son is waiting for me, I am sure of that." He released my hand afterwards.
"I am deeply sorry, Jasmine. You are right because I can't wait to buy toys for our son and also buy some dresses for you." I looked at him when he said that.
"No need to buy any dress for me, Romano." He glared at me.
"Please, just allow me to do this, Jasmine. I want to spoil you and our son." I let out a deep breath. Even if I tried convincing him not to buy a dress for me, his decision will still be final. Knowing how he is, whatever he wants should be followed.
"Okay, fine." He smiled at me.
Seeing him smile melted my heart in happiness. Goodness, his smile is so captivating. We continued our journey to the mall. I was overwhelmed with happiness with the thought that he is by my side. This is the first time we are going out together to buy toys for our son. I can't wait to see him carry our son and I can't wait to see my son smile being with his biological father. This is not yet time but I know it will soon happen.
"Do you want to eat something at the restaurant?" He asked, I looked at him surprisingly. We just had our breakfast earlier and he is inviting me to eat at the restaurant again.
"I am still okay, Romano. Have you forgotten that we just ate our breakfast?" He chuckled.
"Jasmine…." He called my name which made me furrow my brows at him.
"I love you so much, always remember that." I clenched my fist.
"Why are you telling these, Romano?" He looked at me as he stared deeply into my eyes.
"Your eyes are so enticing, your lips taste like cherries and your voice motivates me. Always remember that Romano Kelvin loves you. Whatever happens to me, always remember that you are the only one inside my heart." Tears were about to flow but I stopped myself from crying. This is not the time.
"What is happening, Romano? It seems like you are saying goodbye. Please stop it, this is not a good joke." He stopped the car in the middle of the road to face me. He held my hand and looked into my eyes.
"I just want to tell you how much I love you, regardless of the things I have done in the past. Believe me, I regretted them all, Jasmine. I know that it would be hard for you to forgive me but it is okay and what matters to me now is that you are beside me. You are speaking to me and allowing me to show you how much I love you." His words really touched my heart.
"Please, Romano. What is going on? Why are you talking like this?" He just smiled as he caressed my face.
"Nothing will happen, Jasmine. I just wanted to tell you that I love you so very much and I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you by my side. Please tell our son that his father loves him so much. I will try my best to work hard and bring both of you back to my life." His words were making my eyes teary.
"Romano…." I couldn't form a word as tears began to flow.
"I love you too, Romano." His eyes widened because of what I said.
He pressed his forehead against mine which made me bite my lips. I am very sure about the words I just let out because I still love him. He is the only man I want to spend the rest of my life with. I want to resolve our differences and have him by my side again.
"No, Jasmine. Please don't tell me that." My eyes widened.
"What the hell?" He let go of me. He is so hard to understand. His mood was making it hard for both of us to understand each other.
"Stop loving me, Jasmine because I am not the right man for you. Yes, I still love you and I am doing my best to gain back your trust but…." He didn't finish his sentence before I slapped him.
"I don't understand your personality, Romano. Is this not what you wanted? You want me to forgive you but you are saying otherwise. Why are you telling me to stop loving you!" I couldn't stop raising my voice because of him. He is really making my blood boil in anger.
"I am sorry for not telling you the truth, Jasmine. It is so hard for me to decide. You are the woman I love but the situation now is different. My life as the Alpha king is fulfilled with so much chaos. I just realized that it may be better because you and our are safe without me being by your side." My fist clenched because of what he said.
"Does that mean that you stop your plans of gaining back my trust?" He nodded his head.
"This is the only way I thought that would be better, Jasmine. Enemies are attacking me and eventually the war. I want you and our son to be safe, you don't know how much I need you by my side but each time I remember how difficult the situation is, I want to back out." I shook my head.
"You are just a coward, Romano. Just admit that you are a coward Alpha." He sighed.
"I don't care if you call me a coward, Jasmine. I am doing this because I want you to be safe. You are safe in Kenneth's hands." I shook my head at him again.
"If this is what you want, fine then. I don't care, by the way, I am glad that I didn't introduce you to my son." He sighed deeply.
"Please don't think that I will abandon the two of you again. I am doing this because I don't want to involve you and our son in the upcoming werewolves war. The war is coming, Jasmine and I don't know how I am supposed to stop it." I kept shaking my head at him.
"Just take me home, Romano. I am not interested in going to the mall with you anymore." I said to him in my cold voice.
"But, Jasmine…." He didn't finish his sentence before I cut him off.
"Shut up, Romano! Just do what I want. Take me to Kenneth's mansion now if you don't want to get out of your car." He let out a deep breath.
"I am deeply sorry, Jasmine." I looked at him when he said that.
"Your sorry can't heal my broken heart, Romano. Your sorry can't change the fact that you kept hurting me countless times because of your Selfishness. You are only thinking about yourself and you are a coward Alpha for doing so." I said to him.
"Please don't think that way, Jasmine. The mood goddess knows how much I desire to have you back in my life and how much I love you but the safety of you and our son is what I am thinking right now. I can't risk your lives, Jasmine. Both of you are the only important thing to me right now but neither of you are safe in my hands." Tears flowed down my eyes. I wanted to hug him but I stopped myself. I am mad at him and I should stop myself from being weak.
"Whatever you say, Romano. The fact that you are a coward won't change. Stop your excuse and admit it to me that you don't want to continue with your plan of gaining back my trust." I sighed. I don't care if my words hurt him deeply.
"I am really sorry, Jasmine." He said to me
