Enzo entered my office with a gravity in his expression that immediately caught my attention. I set aside the paperwork that had been occupying my desk, sensing that the news he brought carried a weight that demanded my full attention.

"What did you find, Enzo?" I inquired, my gaze steady on him.

Enzo took a moment before beginning as if gauging how to delicately deliver the revelation that lay ahead. "Dimitri Alekseev, the man we've been investigating, is Amore's father."

My brows furrowed in genuine surprise. "Her father? How is that possible?"

Enzo proceeded to unravel a complex narrative that surpassed the boundaries of our initial understanding. "It seems there was an affair between Dimitri and Emilia, the maid working in the Alekseev mansion. Amore is the outcome of that liaison, making her the heir to the Alekseev family. After her birth, Dimitri and Emilia went on to get married."

The implications of his words hung heavily in the air, and I absorbed the information, trying to comprehend the intricate connections that had shaped Amore's life.

"So, what transpired next?" I inquired, my voice steady despite the whirlwind of thoughts in my mind. Enzo continued to unravel the layers of the story. "Tragically, a month after Amore's birth, she and her mother were kidnapped by a man. Throughout her life, she believed this man to be her father, the one who subjected her to abuse. As it turns out, this man is the same person we dealt with a couple of weeks ago with the Ace issue."

A profound silence settled between us, each word sinking into the depths of my understanding. The revelation had peeled back the layers of Amore's past, exposing wounds that ran deep.

"What am I going to do Lorenzo?" I asked, a concern evident in my tone.

I sat back in my chair, the weight of the revelations pressing upon me. Enzo awaited my initiate, his gaze expectant yet understanding of the complex nature of the situation.

"Enzo," I began, choosing my words carefully, "we need to approach this with caution. Amore is going through an immense emotional upheaval. My priority is to support her and provide the comfort she needs. But we can't ignore the shadows that linger in her past."

Enzo nodded, acknowledging the delicate balance we needed to strike. "What do you suggest, boss?"

I took a moment to gather my thoughts. "Make sure she has everything she needs, the moment a thought crosses her mind it's right in front of her. I will be talking to her very soon ."

Enzo mentally noted down my instructions, "And regarding Both of you ?" he asked, alluding to the unspoken tension between Amore and me.

I sighed, grappling with the conflicting emotions within. "I want to make it official, Enzo. She deserves the truth, and I can't keep her in the shadows any longer. We'll deal with the consequences as they come. Her presence is my sanctuary, a refuge from the chaos that defines my world. I crave the melody of her laughter, the warmth of her touch. In every heartbeat, her name echoes, a constant refrain in the symphony of my thoughts. The intensity of my desire, the magnetic pull drawing me to her—it's an obsession I can no longer deny. She is the axis around which my existence revolves, an irresistible force that has woven its way into the very fabric of my soul. " I confess with my full heart

Enzo raised an eyebrow, a silent acknowledgement of the potential ramifications. "Continue digging into her history discreetly. We need to know if there are any lingering threats or if there's more to her story that could affect her safety."

Enzo looked up, his expression serious. "And if we find something?"

I leaned forward, my gaze meeting his. "We deal with it, whatever it is. Her safety is paramount."
