Bonus Chapter | S-She is Emma!?

Author's pov:-

Davina walked into the room awkwardly with the pillow, which she holds close to her chest, she gazed at davide teasing full eyes and said "Sorry but mom dad is asleep in the guest room" "He is staying here for tonight"

"Emma's room has a single bed and it would seem odd if I were to sleep in the hall since mom dad is here so.." she saw him working on the papers.

"I am feeling sleepy" said, Davina.

"But I am not sleepy. You sleep." And davide replied.

"Where should I sleep?" Asked Davina.

"In the air" "or you can sleep in the bed too." Davide rolled his eyes and said.

"Are you feeling happy after taunting me? Now you may get a good sleep" she walked to side and sits on bed.

"Why do I even came here?"

"It is okay. Now that you are here, you may stay" davide says.

Davina scoffed and turning around she spat "We are married and this bed is mine too"

"Then sleep"

"You too!" He nodded.

He knew she was angry with him. Because he hid something from her and so the Gerardo.

After some time

Davina pouted, her chin jutting out like a stubborn little bird. "We're supposed to be a team, Davide. Don't leave me hanging out to dry like this."

He sighed, dropping the pen and finally facing her. "I know, Davina. Believe me, I know. It's just... difficult. Gerardo..."

"Gerardo what?" she interrupted, frustration sparking in her eyes. "Do you think keeping secrets from me solves anything? It makes me feel like I'm living in a house with hidden rooms, secrets tucked behind every corner."

Davide winced. He hated seeing her like this, her vibrant spirit dimmed by his own anxieties. "I'm not trying to hurt you, Davina. I swear. It's just that..." He faltered, struggling to find the right words.

"Is it about your family?" she asked softly, reaching out to brush a stray strand of hair from his forehead. The gesture startled him, a flicker of surprise warming his gaze.

He hesitated, then met her eyes. "Yes," he admitted, his voice a low rumble. "There's... a situation. Something delicate I need to handle with care."

Davina tilted her head, studying him with a mix of concern and newfound understanding. "Tell me more," she said, her voice laced with quiet determination. "Let me be your safe haven, Davide. The place where you can unload all your burdens."

Flashback....

Davina was busy making coffee for herself in the kitchen. Just when she jumped when she feels two muscular arms snaked round her waist and pulled her body backwards close to his chest.

Davina panicked and tries to take his hands off her waist and said "what are you doing Davide!" "Papa will see us!"

"I don't think he will find this anything bad." Davina covered her mouth with her hands and gasped "hooo... you are so bad Mr. Diamond"

He chuckled and hugged her again "only for you Mrs. Diamond" she put her hands on his chest to make some distance but he refused,

And, "No" murmurs nuzzling into her neck and pulling her more close to him.

"Ok tell me what you want?" "Tell it to me soon and leave" said Davina.

Davide frowned and bites her uncovered shoulder "Should I leave?" "Why should I?" And asked.
