One more month later...
ALESSANDRO'S POV...
I lifted my son's little legs together and smiled at him before wiping his little butt after he dirtied his pants.
He watched me with his bluish-green eyes and his hands were intertwined together. This little angel has exquisite eyes. I swear, his eyes are the rarest eyes I have seen ever in my life.
I don't know if the colour of his eyes would change with his growing up, but I prefer them to stay like this. They are so elite and delightful to look at. So deep and enchanting like his mother.
Wiping his lower area, I covered him again and smiled, "That's it, we are done."
Immediately, his little mouth curved a little in a smile as if he understood my words. That made my heart flutter and my throat heaved up with a slight guilt.
I don't know why he does that. Because sometimes I felt like I don't deserve that smile. When it was the crucial time, I didn't choose him but his mother. Shouldn't he be choosing his mother over me? Because Victoria was the one who chose him.
My wanting and need for this little guy is undeniable. I can't imagine my life without him but when it came before me at that time, I chose Victoria.
Do I feel guilty? Or, was I wrong to choose my wife? Not really. I don't feel I am wrong because anyone would do that in my place. I am certain that Victoria would have done the same.
However, when I see his little face only smiling at me, I still feel a little guilt that surged up in me. That certain part of the time would flash before my eyes.
I picked him up from the little desk that was newly planted for him in the room and held his little body close to my heart. He is too little for my frame but an amazing feeling when I realise, he is my flesh. My own fucking flesh! That always makes me proud.
After losing my grandmother and brother at a time and with a cruel truth, I was devastated. My inner belief was shaken. I didn't know what to do and at that very time, Victoria and her family stood beside me.
Since the day I shifted her to live with her family, I never felt left alone for a second. They made me an honourable member of this family and gave me equal importance.
After Grandma's death, I thought I was going to fall in a dark pool but Victoria and her family didn't let me. They grabbed my hand tightly and pulled me away from that grieving darkness.
Papa, mama and Antonio, or James and Maria, none of them left me alone ever. They would come and pass the time with me, doing different things and always makes me happy.
My little son would always smile at me, making my heart warm. Even though Victoria complains every time he does that, she also smiles with pride when I am not looking at her. Yet, I did see her.
Even now, if she witnessed this, she would have done the same.
I wouldn't mention her being with me and I don't have to. She is a shadow of mine. Always be by my side and never let me alone. She alone could pull me out of my distraction and turned out my biggest strength in life.
She proved it again and again. The last hit she did by saving me from losing my position in the company. So, I decided to go to the office again and work harder this time. At least for her sake.
But, not in Reywalt. I have decided to leave Reywalt because I thought it. And thought a lot about this. Even though what my mother and grandfather did was wrong but Dominic doesn't have any fault in it.
In Grandma's eyes, he is a sin and I don't blame her for her thoughts. She suffered a lot. Now, she is gone and I guess, By giving away Reywalt I could make this up to him. What Grandma tried to do to him, wasn't right and by giving up the company and my position, I can live a little peacefully, I guess.
Victoria worked a lot to acquire ten per cent shares of Reywalt and because of her, I am still the president of the company. But, I know, when I will share my decision with her, she would never deny it.
I put my son down in his baby cot and suddenly felt a soft touch on my back. I smiled without turning back I knew it was her... My Victoria...
I hold her hand and pulled her in front of me. She followed my lead and stood right before me. She tilted her head a little, "Hey Daddy." She said making me stiffen.
Fuck! This woman is gonna be my death! I am already controlling myself with all my willpower. When I have my love of life roaming around me twenty-four/seven, then How I could not be excited?
I leaned toward her, as she closed her eyes, thinking I would kiss her but I didn't, and touched her jawline, kissed the place and slowly dragged my lips to her ear, "Don't provoke me, baby. I don't know how long I can control my inner demons."
I looked at her blushed cheeks and she bit down her lips, watching me through her lashes. Her hands wrapped around my neck as she brought her lips to my ear, "Then who is stopping you?" She asked, luring out the demon I am keeping closed forcefully.
I growled, "Baby, don't be like this. I will lose it and I don't want to hurt you..."
But she didn't stop and get closer to me if there is any space left between us and suddenly her soft touch fell on my hard cock in the trouser, "It won't hurt anymore. I have talked to the doctor." She said as I gasped in silence when grabbed my rock over the pant.
