00:06controlled the very picture of restraint but every night he grips my waist
00:11fucking me until my legs go weak while whispering my name over and over princess
00:17his movements drove into me so relentlessly that i couldn't form a complete sentence
00:30the words broke apart between ragged breaths i could feel him clearly his solid presence moving
00:36within me again and again leaving me trembling with a low restrained groan he gave into the
00:42moment pulling me closer as everything came to a head when it was over we were left clinging to each
00:51other breathing hard suspended in the fading echo of our shared climax he just doesn't know that in
00:56two weeks i'm marrying someone else the sheets are still damp with our shared heat i lie in bed
01:02catching my breath as vincent rises to dress from my side of the bed i watch his long fingers
01:08deftly buttoning his shirt not staying tonight family meeting be good not again vincent nothing
01:19i'm leaving
01:23the moment the door clicks shut i snatch my phone and dial a familiar number
01:26father i accept the marriage alliance in two weeks i'll marry the dying sterling heir in boston
01:31but i have one condition good name it we'll talk in person i hang up and my eyes fall on
01:37the phone
01:38vincent left on the nightstand the screen lights up with a new message it's followed by a kissing emoji
01:43i stare at the message my fingertips trembling vincent has never taken me to the hospital
01:49not even when i broke a rib during training
01:53i get dressed and discreetly follow his car he pulls up to a cozy italian restaurant on mott street
02:00from a distance i watch him stride toward a girl in a white dress isabella she's even thinner than
02:05she appears in photos vincent reaches out tucking a windswept strand of hair behind her ear i've never
02:11seen him look so gentle except when we're in bed
02:18three years ago my father sent me to vincent
02:22the sight of his handsome cold face made my knees weak
02:29sophia needs a proper education in how our family operates
02:33she's too wild you're the only one who can handle her
02:37i was 19 then fresh out of boarding school and brimming with rebellion i thought vincent was just
02:42another man trying to tame me so i decided i would tame him first the first time we met i
02:48wore a mini
02:49skirt to his office just to provoke him vincent sat behind his desk and didn't even bother to look up
02:54close your legs sophia why because the way you're sitting suggests the romano family lacks class i hiked
03:02my skirt even higher how about now vincent finally looked up his eyes cold behind his gold-rimmed glasses
03:09get out for months i did everything i could to get under his skin
03:16i slipped flirtatious notes into his files sabotaged missions he assigned and even put a laxative in his
03:27whiskey then vincent always cleaned up my messes with infuriating calm then told me in that patronizing
03:35tone sophia you're a smart girl you need to apply that intelligence to the right things until that night
03:45i drugged his drink desperate to see what a vincent without his iron control would look like
03:53i just didn't expect to still be in the room when the drug took hold what did you put in
03:58my drink
04:00you've already guessed haven't you i met his searing gaze
04:10want to try me
04:13that night changed everything he murmured stroking my cheek vincent i princess this will be our secret
04:24princess little princess that was the word that made me fall completely he pinned me to the bed
04:30kissed my body when his thick cock pressed against my clit i could clearly feel just how massive it was
04:36a wave of fear washed over me in an instant before i could even protest he thrust all the way
04:42in with
04:43one powerful stroke i gasped sharply sucking in a cold breath please be gentle please be gentle
04:53let me have you all of you princess then he began to move slowly sliding in and out with each
05:01steady
05:01thrust pleasure gradually replaced the initial discomfort my juices started flowing freely soaking
05:07his thighs completely
05:09harder i mimed
05:16feels good doesn't it my little princess
05:20deeper please deeper
05:24vincent suddenly flipped me over gripping my hips firmly as he pounded into me from behind
05:29one hand reached around to roughly rub my swollen clit his stamina was incredible
05:34he fucked me for hours driving me to orgasm again and again
05:40for the next two years we maintained this strange clandestine relationship
05:48by day he was the same composed rational vincent but at night
05:56he'd whisper princess in my ear and me until my legs gave out i thought he loved me
06:03until my birthday i'd spent the entire day preparing put on my most beautiful dress and
06:08booked a table at the restaurant where we first met i was going to tell him i loved him that
06:13i wanted
06:13to be with him no matter the cost but vincent never showed up i sat alone in that restaurant for
06:19three hours
06:22until even the waiter started to look at me with pity
06:28the next day photos of vincent greeting another woman at the airport went viral
06:32in the pictures isabella was nestled in his arms the two of them as intimate as lovers
06:37so that's where he'd been last night he'd gone to pick her up i laughed bitterly and drank until i
06:44couldn't feel anything i wanted to confront him to demand to know what i was to him a buddy a
06:50tool
06:50but i didn't have the courage i was too lonely too addicted to the warmth he offered
06:58that night vincent came home to find a wreck i'd used a wine bottle to smash every single picture of
07:06isabella in his study he didn't even flinch he just instructed the maid to clean up the mess and take
07:16care of me then walked right past me in that moment i finally understood vincent was the family heir
07:25untouchable cold and proud his tolerance wasn't a sign of affection he simply couldn't be bothered to
07:33argue with me after that he still called me princess in bed as if nothing had changed but my heart
07:40was
07:40already dead outside the restaurant vincent opened the car door for isabella they were laughing about
07:49something i looked away and drove back to the romano family estate
08:06what did you say i said i'll marry the sterling family's dying heir in exchange we sever all ties
08:15from this moment on i am no longer a romano you can welcome your mistress and your bastard daughter
08:22into this home with open arms the day you staged the car crash that killed my mother
08:29i stopped wanting you as a father anyway i told you that crash was an accident
08:35don romano shot to his feet accident or not she died on her way to find you cheating with maria
08:43dad let's stop pretending we're a happy family you've been trying to sell me to the sterlings for
08:49five months isn't it just so your precious mistress can finally marry into the family
08:54so your bastard daughter can finally take the romano name sophia you want to be disloaned fine
09:02as of tomorrow you are no longer my daughter get out deal
09:10oh and don't forget to inform the sterling family their bride is no longer the eldest daughter of the
09:16romano family but a parentless orphan ask them if they're still willing to pay the same price
09:26back in my room i shut the door and the mask i wore finally crumbled tears streamed down my face
09:36i curled up on the bed a wounded animal looking its wounds do you know vincent to finally leave you
09:43i had to give up the only thing i had left the next morning i heard the sounds of furniture
09:49being moved
09:50downstairs i rose and walked the landing of the staircase a familiar figure stood at the bottom
09:58isabella my blood ran cold she was that new daughter my stepmother's daughter
10:08isabella stood at the bottom of the stairs in a simple white dress the picture of fragile innocence
10:13she spotted me smiling like an angel you must be sophia i'm isabella it's a pleasure to finally meet you
10:21i didn't answer just stared down at her don romano emerged from the living room seeing isabella
10:29a rare look of paternal affection crossed his features isabella you must be tired from your
10:34journey have sophia show you to your room thank you uncle romano take sophia's room it gets the best
10:41light perfect for your recovery my room from now on it's isabella's room you can move to the third
10:47floor there's an empty guest room up there no thanks i went back upstairs and began to pack
10:59where do you think you're going i'm leaving since i'm no longer a romano there's no reason for me to
11:06stay here sophia your wedding is in two weeks don't be ridiculous i know i'll be at the wedding to
11:15fulfill
11:15our agreement the door slammed shut behind me i drove away from the romano estate without a second
11:23glance i thought about calling a friend but then i realized i didn't have any the people who flocked
11:30around me were only there for the romano family's power and influence now that i'd been cast out
11:35who would bother with me as dusk fell i dragged my suitcase aimlessly through the streets
11:41finally i found an empty bench in central park and sat down the night grew deep the park was quiet
11:48save for the distant hum of traffic i hugged my knees counting down the days until the wedding
11:54i couldn't keep living on the streets as i worried a few drunk men staggered toward me
12:02hey beautiful all alone stay away from me come on have a drink with us i stepped back but the
12:12bench
12:12blocked my escape just then a low menacing voice cut through the air she's with me i turned vincent was
12:21stepping out of the shadows his face a thunderous mask of fury the drunks took one look at his imposing
12:28presence and scrambled away vincent strode toward me his gaze taking in my suitcases then the bench
12:34homeless and you still won't come to me vincent drove me back to his mansion in manhattan
12:42i knew this house all too well every corner held a memory of our bodies tangled together
12:50vincent reached for my suitcase about to take it to my usual bedroom
12:55don't i said heading straight for a guest room i'm only staying for 12 days this is fine you can
13:01stay as long as you want i put my suitcase in the guest room and closed the door i sat
13:07on the edge of
13:07the bed staring at my phone 12 more days and i would leave new york forever the next morning i
13:16went
13:17downstairs vincent was already in the dining room he saw me and gestured to the seat across from him
13:24i sat a maid brought me milk and toast vincent he looked up his gaze calm behind his glasses i
13:32found
13:33out yesterday what is isabella to you a high school classmate she took a bullet for me once
13:39saved my life she's been recovering in europe ever since really just a classmate a savior is it that
13:46simple sophia i don't want you targeting her just because she has returned to the romano family
13:53is that a warning it's a reminder isabella's health is fragile she can't handle any trouble
14:01i nodded saying nothing more vincent was more direct in his defense of isabella than i had ever
14:07imagined i understand i'm going upstairs what else was there to ask
14:14i stayed in the guest room all day the maid brought lunch and dinner to my door i didn't go
14:20down that night i lay in bed unable to sleep usually vincent would open the door around this time
14:29push me down without a word and grip my waist while calling me princess but tonight
14:37nothing his first love was back of course he won't want me anymore
14:45on saturday he forced me to go to a party it didn't look like any mafia gathering i'd ever been
14:50to before i could ask i heard a familiar voice vincent you're finally here isabella in a white evening
14:57gown fluttered over like a butterfly she saw me and her expression faltered for a fraction of a second
15:03before she plastered on a sweet smile sophia's here too that's wonderful i glanced around and
15:09saw a large banner that read welcome home isabella it was a welcome party for her vincent had brought
15:15me to isabella's welcome home party i turned to leave but isabella stopped me sophia what's wrong
15:21are you not feeling well i heard you moved out of your house is it because of me i'm so
15:28sorry i had no
15:29idea uncle ramona would let me stay in your room her voice was soft and gentle but loud enough for
15:34everyone around us to hear a few guests looked my way with questioning eyes it's fine it's just a room
15:42but uncle romano said you even need your disowned him it's all my fault if i hadn't come back isabella
15:50the reason i disowned him has nothing to do with an outsider like you isabella's tears began to fall
15:56she looked pitifully at vincent vincent walked over shot me a warning look don't cry your eyes will get
16:04swollen he took out a handkerchief and dabbed at her tears isabella's tears turned to a smile you're so
16:10good to me vincent i watched them all night he pulled out her chair he brought her drinks he fixed
16:19her dress
16:20a sharp pain pierced my heart in 10 days i thought vincent was just a cold man who didn't know
16:26how to be
16:26romantic i was wrong he's not cold he just wasn't willing to do those things for me i turned and
16:34walked to the bar grabbed a glass of champagne and downed most of it in one go
16:43after the party i stood alone outside the club waiting for a car isabella came out with vincent
16:50carefully helping her walk sophia i'm so sorry about what happened earlier i twisted my ankle so
16:57suddenly vincent couldn't get to you it looks like you handled it well she glanced at my injured hand a
17:03flash of triumph in her eyes i did i've always been good at handling my own problems that's good
17:10to be honest i was a little worried when vincent brought you tonight after all you two used to used
17:17to what you don't actually think vincent has special feelings for you do you sophia dear vincent just
17:25pities you you're homeless now so he took you in out of charity that's all isabella's eyes were sharp
17:32and malicious is that so of course vincent only has room in his heart for me it's been that way
17:40since high school that will never change just then a black sedan lost control and sped straight toward
17:46us in a split second vincent lunged forward and threw his arms around isabella shielding her with
17:52his body and me i was struck hard by the out of control car and thrown violently to the ground
18:01as the car hit me my consciousness began to fade pain shot through my entire body but what hurt more
18:08was the absolute crushing despair of being abandoned flashes of memory flooded my mind
18:16i remember the first time he pinned me down calling me princess i remember the knights in his arms
18:23listening to the steady beat of his heart thinking i had finally found my home but the last thing i
18:30saw
18:30was the truth vincent diving for her leaving me to face the crash alone the final image was frozen in
18:38my mind vincent without a moment's hesitation diving to protect isabella and me like some disposable bystander
18:47left to face the danger all alone when i finally opened my eyes i was in a hospital bed
18:55it was quiet but i could hear them talking just outside my curtain vincent's voice was so gentle
19:03it sounded like a stranger's voice are you okay isabella softly said yes
19:08she asked him vincent if it happened again you'd still save me first right vincent didn't even hesitate
19:20of course sophia has no reason to be angry in an emergency i'm obviously are going to save the
19:27more fragile person she understands that after vincent left the room was quiet but not for long
19:35the door creaked open and there she was isabella sat by my bed with a poisonous smile she told me
19:43a
19:43story about high school about how she was vincent's first love she told me she took a bullet for him
19:50during an ambush and ever since vincent has been consumed with guilt he promised to spend the rest of
19:58his life making it up to her then she leaned in her voice turning venomous she told me that while
20:05she
20:06was away she lied to vincent she told him i was mistreating her mother vincent didn't discipline you
20:12because he was forced to he asked for the job he wanted to break me to get revenge for her
20:17i felt my blood turned to ice but it got worse isabella pulled out her phone and asked did you
20:24know that
20:25every single time you two were together it was being recorded vincent installed hidden cameras in
20:32the bedroom he filmed our most private moment sentence just to give her leverage to control me
20:40vincent never loved you he was just completing a mission and now he's going to marry me
20:46i couldn't stay in that hospital bed for another second
20:52i jumped into a cab and headed straight to vincent mansion i had to know i had to see if
20:59the man i
20:59loved was actually the monster isabella described i ran into a study and punched the code into the hidden
21:06wall it slid open to reveal a room full of monitors and computers my hand shook as i found the
21:13folder
21:13labeled sofia i clicked it there they were hundreds of videos every night we spent together
21:19every i love you i whispered in his arms he had recorded it all in high definition
21:26i crumpled to the floor it was all true i called my father my voice breaking i asked him 10
21:33years ago
21:34did vincent offer to discipline me my father didn't even hesitate he told me vincent gave him a 200 million
21:41dollar project just for the chance to take me under his wing vincent didn't love me he bought me he
21:48slept
21:48with me and controlled me just to get revenge i started to laugh it was a hysterical broken sound
21:59i went to the bedroom and grabbed my suitcase along with my flight ticket to a city where he will
22:05never find me on my way out i picked up a solid gold lighter the first gift vincent ever gave
22:12me i used
22:13to think it was a symbol of love but now i realize it was just a mark on his prey
22:17i flicked the lighter
22:18open and tossed it onto the heavy silk curtains i watched the flames grow devouring the memories the
22:26lies and the girl who once loved him so deeply the sky was a hellish red as fire trucks surrounded
22:33the
22:33mansion i watched it burn a message popped up when i turned on my phone it was vincent i heard
22:39you burn the
22:40house do you feel better now my princess i didn't reply i was about to catch my flight i received
22:46another message from him stay home and wait for me i have something to tell you i turned off my
22:51phone
22:52whispered to the empty air we'll never see each other again i threw my phone out the window and
22:57watched it shatter now he has no way to find me at the airport i sat by the window outside
23:02i saw his
23:03private jet on the tarmac i accidentally saw his silhouette walking up the stairs heading to another
23:08city for his meeting my flight was called i realized then there were two planes on that runway
23:15pointed in completely opposite directions vincent walked out of the mafia meeting and loosened his tie
23:23after three days of high stakes negotiations he'd finally taken several more ports
23:29the corsini territory had finally fallen he was at the top of his game he turned on his phone for
23:35the
23:35first time in 72 hours and the screen lit up with 99 missed messages from isabella but his eyes went
23:43straight to the only one that mattered a single message from sophia he tapped it expecting her usual
23:49sass instead his blood went cold it was a bank notification transfer received eight hundred thirteen
23:58thousand dollars the memo simply read settlement for medical and living expenses no i miss you
24:05nowhere have you been just a final bill paid in full that was the total amount of vincent's money i
24:11had
24:11spent over the last three years i transferred it to him back vincent almost laughed from frustration
24:17he typed back you think i need your money do we really need to settle accounts like this
24:32he waited for the reply he knew would come in seconds but the chat window stayed silent
24:3810 minutes passed nothing he called her only to hear a cold robotic voice say the number you have
24:48dialed is not
24:48for a second vincent froze he thought of sophia how she looked when she snuggled into his arms at night
24:58her long lashes against her skin he looked at her profile picture a proud cat that looked exactly like
25:04her he smiled thinking she was just playing hard to get he sent one last message be at the airport
25:09to
25:10pick me up he stared at his phone waiting for her to say no or fine but the message stayed
25:16on red
25:17for the first time in his life the ruthless crime boss felt a chill run down his spine he was
25:23used to
25:23her defiance but he wasn't prepared for her silence on the drive back vincent sat in the back seat
25:30holding a velvet jewelry box inside was the pearl necklace sophia had begged for the one he had
25:38refused to help her buy at the auction his driver marshall finally spoke up boss i think she still
25:44heard about the auction but if she knew you went through all this trouble to find the real necklace
25:50for her she'd be so moved vincent looked at the box he pictured sophia's defiant beautiful face
26:00would she marshall kept going talking about how sophia was actually kind and sweet even when she
26:05tried to act tough but then the temperature in the car dropped vincent's face turned terrifyingly dark
26:11he looked at marshall in the mirror and asked do you like her marshall's hand shook so hard the car
26:16almost swerved off the road vincent demanded tell me the truth marshall took a deep breath and admitted it
26:23who wouldn't be drawn to someone like her but i know she only has eyes for you boss i've only
26:30ever
26:30admired her from afar vincent calmed down slightly but then marshall found a sudden burst of courage
26:35he looked at the most powerful boss in the territory and said but boss i hope you treat her better
26:41you
26:42can't protect isabella one moment then try to be sweet to sophia the next she deserves a love that is
26:48all or nothing vincent narrowed his eyes his voice dangerous what are you implying exactly what it
26:54sounds like boss i've always wanted to ask who do you really love is it isabella or is it sophia
27:05sophia of course the moment the words left vincent's mouth marco slammed on the brakes
27:13the tires screeched against the pavement sorry boss marco apologized hastily his back slick with a cold
27:20sweat to his surprise vincent wasn't angry he just lifted his cold gaze studying his assistant in the
27:28rearview mirror does my answer shock you that much marco's hands trembled on the wheel shocked was an
27:37understatement it turned everything he thought he knew on its head he didn't dare say it aloud opting
27:45for a more tactful response
27:50but i've seen you treat miss isabella so well even better than you treat miss sophia
27:57vincent pressed his long fingers to his temples and leaned back into the leather seat that's because
28:03she took a bullet for me he closed his eyes memories flooding back in high school he was known at
28:12saint
28:12louis preparatory academy as the ice prince as the marcelli heir daughters from every major family
28:20vied for his attention daily the most extreme incident involved the torino family's daughter
28:25arranging roses in a heart shape at the school gate to declare her feelings
28:29every girl wanted him to make them stop he needed a fake girlfriend he conceded it was a practical
28:37solution but who his gaze swept across the courtyard and landed on isabella reading in the library from
28:44then on he started singling her out he let her rest her head on his shoulder in class had her
28:50accompany
28:50him everywhere and tacitly allowed the high society rumors about them to circulate the effect was immediate
28:57the other families backed off on graduation day isabella asked him to meet on the school roof as they
29:04were leaving an assassin from a rival family appeared a dark gun barrel aimed right at him in that critical
29:11moment isabella shoved him out of the way the gunshot echoed he saw isabella fall like a broken kite
29:19blood gushing from her chest in the hospital the pale-faced girl whispered weakly vincent i don't regret it
29:28the doctor said the bullet had grazed her heart she'd nearly died out of guilt he had granted nearly every
29:34request she'd made over the years the only thing he was grateful for was isabella's comment i want that little
29:40romano princess to never dare bully my mother again which led him to propose disciplining sofia to don
29:48romano himself at the thought a smile involuntarily touched vincent's lips vincent remembered the first
29:55time he saw sofia like it was yesterday she burst into his study like a flash of red leaning against
30:01the
30:01door with a smirk a princess shouldn't have to wait in that moment she was like a flame burning through
30:07his
30:08cold black and white world his heart skipped a beat even if he didn't show it for years she was
30:14a wild cat
30:14she put laxatives in his whiskey and turned his million dollar contracts into paper airplanes
30:21he loved every minute of the chase he remembered the night he finally pinned her to his desk
30:27that night sophia was furious struggling beneath him her mini skirt pushed up to her waist panties
30:34already torn and dangling from one ankle you bastard let me go but vincent only smirked coldly
30:42one hand pinning both her wrists above her head while the other roughly spread her legs my princess
30:49sophia screamed her body clenching violently around him as he took her hard and deep the heavy desk
30:56creaking under their violent rhythm he took her again and again until her angry curses turned into broken
31:02moans and her legs wrapped around his waist involuntarily she was furious calling him a
31:09bastard but he just whispered my princess he took her again and again but he never said the word love
31:16vincent realized he had kept his feelings buried because he was afraid he was afraid if he confessed
31:22his love she would take it for granted or worse get bored and run away but sitting on his private
31:29jet
31:29he couldn't stop thinking about her he remembered how she secretly left warm water by his bed when he
31:36was sick even when she was mad at him his throat tightened for the first time he was desperate to
31:44get home
31:45the plane landed in the room vincent walked down the steps his eyes searching for that familiar sight
31:53every time he returned sophia was there in a bright dress waving at him before flying into his arms
32:00like a happy bird he could almost feel her hug already he was ready to pull her into the car
32:06and never
32:07let her go vincent a smile started to spread across his face but as he turned his smile froze
32:15it was isabella she looked fragile and sweet but vincent's body went stiff he pushed her away
32:23gently and asked what are you doing here isabella pouted telling him she had come especially to pick him up
32:31aren't you happy to see me vincent gave a polite answer but he didn't even take her hand his mind
32:37was miles
32:37away he was thinking about sophia she hadn't shown up he figured she was still sulking about him he
32:44started making a mental list of gifts to fix things isabella begged him to follow her to a special place
32:50wanting to get it over with he agreed but when the ballroom doors opened at a luxury hotel vincent
32:57froze the room was a sea of white roses champagne towers and heart-shaped balloons it was a perfect
33:04setting for a romantic proposal the elite guests turned to him with knowing smiles vincent realized
33:09it instantly this was a trap just as he turned to find an exit the large screen suddenly lit up
33:15it
33:15showed vincent in high school letting isabella rest her head on his shoulder then a photo of him holding
33:20an umbrella over her in the rain to the crowd it looked like a perfect lifelong romance but vincent
33:26stood in the back his face a mask of stone isabella walked onto the stage blushing she told the room
33:32how vincent had watched her in the library how he only ever took drinks from her hand and how
33:36everyone called them a perfect match i've always been in love with you the crowd gasped they were
33:43sure he was about to propose isabella pulled out a jewelry box she was certain he felt the same way
33:48because he had granted her every wish for years but vincent's eyes grew ice cold before she could ask
33:54the question vincent strode onto the stage the room went dead silent he looked her right in the eyes and
34:00said
34:03isabella i can grant you anything you want but not this i am not in love with you
34:16isabella's voice shot up the color draining from her face
34:29i apologize for the misunderstanding back then my associates daughters were a nuisance
34:35i needed a shield a shield he paused then continued as compensation i deposited half a million dollars
34:41into your account every year i thought we had an understanding that it was a transaction that was
34:47my debt to you his gaze rested calmly on her pale face but that's all there is to it the
34:53room erupted
34:54the envious glances instantly turned to mockery and contempt whispers rushed toward isabella like a tidal
35:00wave i knew it a man of vincent status would never fall for someone from the torino family
35:06she acted like it was real but it was all in her head i heard her mother used her looks
35:10to marry
35:11into the romano family like mother like daughter i suppose always trying to climb the social ladder
35:16every word was a knife in isabella's heart her reputation was everything she had planned this
35:23for three months inviting all of new york's high society determined to become mrs marcelli
35:29in the most glamorous way possible but now she trembled her nails digging deep into her palms
35:35if vincent didn't love her then who did he love a terrible thought surfaced could it be
35:41sophia the next second vincent was turning to leave she clung to his sleeve with the last shred
35:47of her dignity vincent vincent in all these years did you really never feel anything for me
36:00no never those two words stabbed isabella through the heart her legs gave out and she collapsed onto
36:06the stage her perfectly coiffed hair came undone her makeup streaked with tears amid the pointing and
36:13whispering vincent walked out of the ballroom without a single look back striding toward the black car
36:18waiting outside marco was already there with the gifts he'd been asked to prepare boss it's all ready
36:24the sapphire necklace and miss sophia's favorite italian chocolates
36:35vincent took out his phone and texted sophia come to the long island villa i have something for you
36:42no reply he called her still off frowning slightly he sent another text still mad the messages went out
36:51one after another meeting only silence vincent rubbed his temples and sent one more you burned down the
36:57mansion if you're still not satisfied do you want to burn another one after a long wait the phone
37:03remained quiet still no response his patience finally snapped vincent dialed don romano's number directly
37:11vincent didn't you know sophia i already married her off to sterling family the phone slipped from vincent's
37:19hand the convoy sped to the romano estate vincent kicked the front door open and stormed inside
37:26don romano was sitting on a leather sofa sipping whiskey he was so shocked he almost dropped his glass
37:32vincent what are you doing here you married sophia off to sterling family in boston vincent bit out each
37:39word i did you were always complaining about how much trouble she was right
37:47and the sterling family's sickly heir was offering 500 million for an alliance so i married her off
37:57now you and isabella can finally be together without anyone bothering you
38:04who told you i love isabella vincent slammed his fist on the marble coffee table and the entire slab
38:12cracked into men tear this place apart two dozen men in black suits swarmed in and in an instant porcelain
38:19furniture furniture and paintings were reduced to fragments don romano's face went pale vincent what
38:27are you doing as of today the romano family is finished no vincent you can't do this don romano
38:35scrambled forward pleading think of the history between our families just then isabella rushed in
38:44vincent vincent why are you doing this to my father realization dawned on her and she screamed
38:52hysterically you fell in love with sophia didn't you i did so what isabella looked as if she'd been
38:59struck by lightning then burst into manic laughter but she's never coming back you love her but you
39:10never said it so everyone thought you loved me isabella's smile was twisted i paid your maids to fill
39:18your study with my pictures do you think sophia never saw them why do you think she burned down the
39:24mansion because i told her you recorded your private moments together to use as blackmail
39:30she wasn't forced to marry him she gave up on you completely she chose to marry someone else
39:37she'll never come back every word was a dagger twisting in vincent's heart he thought about sophia's
39:43recent behavior the lack of tantrums the silence the way she walked away from the fire without a second
39:49glance so she had seen the photos she had heard the rumors she had lost all hope in him as
39:55for the
39:55recordings he had made them but only to watch them himself he remembered how she looked in the throes
40:01of passion the stubborn way she bit her lip to keep from crying out the flush that crept up her
40:06neck when
40:06she came he couldn't bring himself to delete those memories but now they had all become weapons used
40:12against her isabella you will pay for this he turned his voice as cold as the grave get the jet
40:21ready we're going to boston now sophia sat in her room staring blankly at the mountains of luxury goods
40:30from the day she arrived at the sterling estate a non-stop stream of items had been brought to her
40:36sophia finally held up a hand look at this room is there any space left the maids exchanged glances
40:43one of them immediately pressed her earpiece and whispered young master miss sophia says the room is
40:48too small i held sophia deadpanned that's not what i meant the young master's orders were to spend
40:55without limit sophia pressed her hand to her forehead does your young master usually throw money away like
41:01this the maid said seriously the young master is very wealthy for the sterling family this is just
41:07pocket change sophia took a deep breath and finally asked the question that had been on her mind for
41:13days i've been here for almost a week may i meet your young master the maid hesitated the young master
41:19said
41:20he's not mentally prepared yet sophia laughed in disbelief he married me and he's not prepared
41:26fine then i'm leaving the moment the words left her mouth all the maids suddenly stood at attention
41:32bowing respectfully young master sophia froze and turned toward the door footsteps approached and a
41:39tall slender figure appeared sophia was stunned this was alexander sterling the supposedly dying heir he
41:50looked healthy enough to take on a dozen assassins single-handedly mr sterling care to explain i'm sorry
41:55the truth is i'm not sick i was just too scared to meet you i've been waiting for you since
42:00i was a
42:00child i've loved you for so long you said you've been in love with me for a long time ten
42:06years ago
42:06at the yacht party in the hamptons have we met have you forgotten who you saved sophia froze
42:15her memory pulled back a decade at that party she had been on the deck when she heard a splash
42:21a young boy had fallen overboard before anyone else could react she had dived in after him after
42:27swallowing several mouthfuls of seawater she finally dragged him back to the deck
42:34she'd asked soaked to the bone but ignoring herself as she knelt to perform first aid
42:43the little boy coughed up water and opened his eyes his lashes beaded with moisture
42:55she had taken off her jacket and wrapped it around his shivering body
43:01are you okay the boy had clutched her jacket his eyes shining like stars
43:06sofia snapped back to the present staring at alexander in disbelief that little kid who fell
43:12in the water that was you yes the tips of alexander's ears flushed i've been looking
43:19for you for 10 years sofia suddenly laughed but you were only 12 then and i was 16 i'm four
43:24years
43:24older than you because you were like an angel you saved me and you were so gentle his eyes were
43:31so
43:31clear without a trace of pretense princess i truly love you i didn't mean to deceive you
43:38if you want to leave the 500 be still yours and i'll let you go but if you're willing to
43:44give me a
43:45chance let me give you a home i'll spend my entire life treating you right the word home struck a
43:52deep
43:53chord in sophia's heart maybe she could try at least here someone loved her with all their heart in the
43:59days that followed alexander treated sophia like the center of the universe she casually mentioned
44:04a craving for italian food and half an hour later a three-star michelin chef and his entire team were
44:10at their door she frowned in her sleep and alexander had all the carpets in the villa replaced with a
44:16softer material most importantly the entire sterling family adored her she hadn't felt this cherished in
44:22years her new life felt like a dream until a maid reported breathlessly madam mr vincent is
44:29here he's asking to see you the magazine in sophia's hand fell to the floor
44:39she looked up and met alexander's tense gaze he put down the strawberry he was holding his voice
44:45tight princess do you want to see him sophia looked at his tense profile and suddenly smiled
44:50no she reached out and poked his cheek keep feeding me strawberries alexander's eyes lit up and
44:57immediately turned back into her loyal puppy carefully feeding her strawberries one by one on sophia's
45:04birthday alexander threw a lavish party when alexander took her hand led her onto the stage and announced
45:11he was transferring fifty percent of his company shares to her the entire room is he crazy that's
45:19billions sofia tugged on his sleeve what are you doing alexander looked down at her his eyes shining
45:27if i wasn't afraid of burdening you i would have given you 100 percent someone in the crowd started chanting
45:36the tips of alexander's ears turned bright red as he looked at sophia tentatively just as he leaned
45:42in to kiss her the ballroom doors were kicked open everyone froze vincent stood in the doorway impeccably
45:49dressed but his eyes were terrifyingly dark his gaze was fixed on sophia and alexander's intertwined hands
45:56as if he wanted to burn a hole right through them almost instantly alexander pulled sophia into his arms
46:04shielding her with his body but sophia was surprisingly calm she looked at vincent and smiled
46:10mr marcelli what brings you here a wedding gift her words were a knife stabbing deep into vincent's chest
46:17his jaw tightened veins standing out on his neck his voice was raw sophia come back with me sophia's
46:25smile widened go back to what to watch you take care of isabella i don't love isabella i love you
46:33the guests gasped and the whispers he really is here to crash the wedding
46:38his voice was low let's talk somewhere else alexander sneered mr marcelli you're not welcome here
46:46but sophia gently placed a hand on his it's okay i'll make things clear inside the black car
46:53sophia sat in the passenger seat calmly looking out the window vincent was in the driver's seat his tie
46:59crooked his eyes bloodshot he had never looked so disheveled the recordings i made them but not to
47:05blackmail you i just wanted to keep them for myself he explained everything one detail at a time
47:13when he finished sophia just asked quietly and vincent froze and come back with me
47:26sophia it's always been you i love you vincent you knew my situation but you still chose to side with
47:34isabella again and again even if you don't love her the pain you caused me was real and during that
47:42time my feelings for you slowly died i can't get them back vincent's fingers tightened on the steering
47:49wheel his knuckles turning white his voice shook sophia i'm not a god i made a mistake can't you
47:57allow me one mistake is the price for one mistake losing you forever sophia looked at him her gaze so
48:03calm it was brutal yes i don't hate you but i won't love you again either she took a gold
48:10-leafed
48:10invitation from her purse and handed it to him my wedding to alexander is in three days with that
48:16she opened the car door and walked toward alexander who was waiting by the road never once looking back
48:22vincent sat in the car watching her leave and suddenly remembered the first time he saw her
48:28she was in a red dress proud and radiant a fire that had burned its way into his black and
48:35white
48:36world and now that fire was gone the day before the wedding sophia sat at the vanity in the bridal
48:44suite her fingertips tracing the diamonds on her wedding dress the sun was shining and staff
48:49bustled outside preparing for the ceremony everything seemed perfect a soft knot came at the door princess
48:56alexander entered a cup of warm herbal tea and a small elegant velvet box he was dressed in a well
49:03fitted black suit his eyes impossibly gentle he said placing the cup beside her barely touched your
49:10breakfast sophia looked up a small smile on her lips thanks sophia opened the box inside were exquisite
49:19pieces of italian chocolate alexander said softly i heard you used to love the chocolates from the shop
49:24alexander said softly i had them flown in from milan sophia paused surprised she was about to speak
49:30when the estate's security alarm began to shriek alexander frowned a frantic voice came through
49:36what's going on mr alexander the system is breached all surveillance and access controls alexander's face
49:42changed princess stay here don't move he hurried out giving sharp orders in the hallway before she could
49:49react the sweet door was pushed open soundlessly a tall figure stood in the doorway vincent sophia shot
49:56to her feet knocking over a bottle of perfume outside a helicopter hovered its rotor blades deafening
50:04sophia's eyes widened in horror vincent this is kidnapping so what if it is
50:10you're mine he sneered leaping onto the balcony with her i should have done this the first day i saw
50:17you
50:18the wind howled whipping her wedding dress around her she looked back at the estate and saw alexander's
50:24distant figure being held back by several men in black he seemed to be shouting her name but the
50:29wind stole the sound the helicopter landed on a private island at dawn vincent carried sophia off the
50:34aircraft the moment her feet touched the ground she shoved him away she sneered illegal confinement
50:40whipping in the sea breeze when did vincent marcelli stoop to such low-life tactics
50:46so what if i did vincent gave her a tour he said opening the french doors everything here is yours
50:53the gardens the pool the library even that ocean i want to go back sophia
51:01let's start over as if none of it ever happened vincent when did you learn to lie to yourself
51:08sophia i will make you become the person you used to be she woke from a nightmare to find a
51:14small
51:15lamp on her nightstand its light soft as the moon vincent sat by her bed watching her his eyes bloodshot
51:21this was a vincent she had never seen before tender obsessive and unconditionally indulgent
51:27for a moment she was dazed if only he had been like this before but there was no going back
51:33he
51:33cupped the back of her neck pulling her closer don't don't touch me vincent froze his eyes filled
51:41with a storm of pain sophia what do you want me to do sophia looked at him and suddenly smiled
51:47let me go
51:50a maid entered madam please drink some milk when is he coming back mr vincent had to return to new
51:57york
51:58to handle the marcelli family business he would be back as soon as possible the glass hit the wall
52:03shattering sophia sneered i am not your madam get out the terrified maid scrambled out sophia bent down and
52:11picked up the sharpest shard of glass vincent handed his suit jacket to the maid where is she in the
52:21master bedroom vincent pushed open the bedroom door his face filled with terror sophia was sitting on the
52:27edge of the bed a startling gash marked her wrist blood dripping from her fingertips onto the carpet
52:33staining it crimson vincent's pupils contracted he rushed forward and seized her wrist if you dare to
52:39die i will make the entire sterling family die with you sophia looked up a mocking smile on her pale
52:45face what will it take for you to finally let me go say you love me in your dreams vincent
52:58stared at her
52:59then suddenly smiled a look that sent a chill down her spine he let her go and turned to marco
53:06contact the global media now marco froze boss you mean a live stream
53:17of my wedding to sophia
53:21cameras were aimed at the bedroom's french doors vincent had changed into a black suit sophia
53:27was forced into a wedding dress a silk ribbon hiding the wound on her wrist vincent gripped
53:33sophia's waist and leaned in to kiss her sophia struggled biting his lip hard enough to draw blood
53:39blood trickled from his mouth dripping onto her white dress the live stream cut out abruptly but it
53:45was too late the world was in an uproar sophia shoved him away his blood staining her lip vincent
53:51are you insane vincent wiped the blood from his mouth and laughed softly
54:00now the whole world knows you're mine sophia looked at him and felt like she was looking at
54:05a stranger on the 27th day of her captivity sophia learned to be obedient he asked one morning tying
54:13his tie by the bed what do you want to eat today her voice was calm whatever you make vincent's
54:19fingers
54:19paused a flash of surprise crossed his eyes followed by a smile all right he turned and went to the
54:27kitchen the moment he was gone sophia threw back the covers and pulled a microcomputer from under the
54:33mattress stolen from his study last week she had breached the island's security system an encrypted
54:41distress signal was sent three nights later sophia stood on the edge of a cliff hurried footsteps came from
54:48line alexander had arrived princess he yelled rushing toward her come with me sophia glanced back
54:54at the guards chasing them and suddenly smiled alexander are you afraid of heights before he could react
55:01sophia grabbed his hand and jumped off the cliff
55:06soaked to the bone sophia and alexander struggled onto a small hidden shore let's go alexander pulled
55:13her toward her toward a waiting speed boat just then a blinding spotlight hit them vincent stood on
55:19the shore flanked by dozens of guards his voice was ice done running sophia shielded alexander with her
55:28body let him go vincent stared at her i can then smiled faintly but you have to stay before sophia
55:36could
55:37answer a loud running came from the cliff above a giant boulder had come loose tumbling straight
55:43toward them watch out vincent lunged shoving both of them out of the way the boulder crashed down on
55:50his legs blood instantly stained the seawater red the impact threw sophia to the ground and her head hit a
55:57rock her vision blackened but she forced her eyes open she saw vincent lying in a pool of blood his
56:05face
56:05ashen his gaze locked on her sophia are you okay vincers let me go sophia's mouth opened but her vision
56:15went dark when vincent woke up the first thing he felt was a deep numbness in his legs the doctor
56:23stood
56:23by his bed his voice low mr marcelli your spinal nerves are damaged your lower body's motor functions
56:30might be he didn't finish but the meaning was clear marco's eyes were red i'll go tell miss sophia
56:38if she knows you did this to save her shut up vincent cut him off coldly no one says a
56:45word he turned to
56:46look out the window the sunlight stinging his eyes he remembered the last thing he saw sophia lying on the
56:52ground pale vincent let me go forcing out the words in that moment he finally understood a pain worse
57:00than death some mistakes once made truly meant losing the one you love forever one month later
57:07vincent sat in his wheelchair watching the new sterling group ceo alexander sterling and italian social
57:14married today in a grand ceremony on the screen sophia was in a wedding dress her smile brilliant
57:20she used to smile at him like that before he had sided with isabella time and time again
57:27the courier rang the doorbell while vincent was sitting in the ruins of the burned down mansion
57:33sir a package for you vincent took it it was a small box inside was a men's wedding band exquisitely
57:40crafted the inside was engraved to vincent with all my love s there was also a card vincent's hand
57:49trembled the ring fell to the ground with a soft clink so she had wanted to marry him a tearing
57:59pain
58:00ripped through his chest he doubled over gasping for breath a neighbor walked by and asked curiously sir
58:10this house is a ruin are you waiting for someone vincent looked up yes i'm waiting
58:16the setting sun illuminating his pale face but he knew she was never coming back
58:23the sun set leaving him alone in the ruins he lit a cigarette and looked toward the horizon
58:30as if he could still hear that proud voice calling his name vincent marcello
