The Italian Billionaire's Baby (DISCONTINUED!!)

24. Arranged Marriage?

ATHOUR'S NOTE:   Hey everyone!! I would like to apologize for not updating when I said I was. If any of you saw the last post I put up on my profile , then you probably know why. However, if you didn't then I would just say it again: a lot of things came up that just took over my complete attention and I have also been working on some other things, that just made updating hard. Like said on the post, Wattpad was honestly at the back of my mind. But do not worry I am back!!

Though, I do wonder what you all will think if I would have just stopped writing the story and not continue it??

No worries!! I have not forgotten the story, I will finish it. Especially since there is about 5-7 chapters left (give or take).

ON ANOTHER NOTE: I would like to thank you for not giving up on this story and patiently waiting for the next update. As well as for all the comments, votes, reads, and follows.

{ Arranged Marriage? }

 

￮￮Alexandro (3rd POV)￮￮

 

The crackling of the burning wood echoed as it’s heat spread throughout the room. Poking the wood around, Alexandro moved trying to make it release some more heat. Satisfied with his work, he placed the poker back on it’s little rack that stood next to the fire place. Looking up, Alex’s gaze landed on the sleeping figure sprawled on the four-poster bed across the room.

 

Letting a small smile spread across his face, he made his way over to the bed.

Taking a quick glance at the electric clock on top of the bedside table - that read 7 in the morning, he decided to wait a while more before waking the sleeping beauty. Gently, he climbed back into the bed and moved her. Marie unconsciously moved around and snuggled against Alexandro’s chest, seeking the heat his body gave.

 

Alexandro wrapped an arm around her frame, and pulled closer than she already was. His thumb rubbed small circles on her shoulder as his other hand held onto to Marie’s, that laid across his stomach. Looking down at her sleeping form, he could not help but ask himself how he became so lucky as to have such a wonderful person in his life. This girl in his arms changed the way Alexandro felt about many things.

 

If you had asked him a year ago; how he felt about being in a committed relationship. He would have said he was far from being committed to anyone. He enjoyed the single life. Never having to worry about anyone else but himself. He especially enjoyed the attention he received from the opposite sex. He would flirt and do more than that with different women shamelessly. As for ever having a family of his own, he would have simply said: ‘that kind of life was not for me’. But now, now he could not help but to think just how naive those thoughts were. You never really know how something could feel and change you, until you experience it. For that he was happy. Marie was someone he really cared for in so many different levels. So much that he could not stand it if she was unhappy or hurt in any way. What made it even better was the fact that she was the mother of his unborn son.

 

Being able to say that he was going to be a father and feeling proud of it, was something that at time he himself could not believe. Yet, it was true and real.
