Chapter 49 - 48

"Thank you so much for taking care of Rose. I wish they were here. But I am glad they have you and Arlo there." Said Sabrina.

"You don't need to thank me. We are family and you were right, Rose is a sweet girl just like you. But I am scared for her. Ermanno is like Elisio but Elisio loved you and yet hurt you. Whereas Ermanno married her to hurt her. He is still accusing her of Sofia's dead and oh god you had to see the bruise on her cheek. Living with Dom as your husband and knowing very well the difference between abuse and BDSM, I can tell he is abusing her physically. And she was forced to marry, we all are a witness of that. What do think we should do?" Asked Sabina.

"We all made a pack of not letting men abuse us or any other women in and outside our family. We promised to stand by eachother. To god's grace, we never had to fight within our family. But if it comes a time we will fight for her. I will fight for her let it be against my own son. For now, I think we should let Rose know we have her back." Said Sabrina.

"You know what I think. I think we should let her know we have her back but also help her work on her marriage. A good girl can make a good man out of any man. Maybe with our support, she can change him and once he forgets Sofia he can live a peaceful life with Rose." Said Sabina.

"You are right. We should do that" said Sabrina.

"And don't worry about here. I got it covered." Said Sabina.

"Thank you," said Sabrina and smiled and then both said goodbye and hung the phone.

Sabrina was seated in front of the phone and staring at it and was deep in thought when she heard a whisper in her ear "what are you doing fiore?" 

Sabrina jumped in horror and held her hands on her chest.

Elisio laughed out loud and said "you get scared so easy"

"That's not fair," said Sabrina with pouty lips.

"A Mio Fiore," said Elisio and kissed her lips and continued "hmm you taste good. I wanna taste more" said Elisio and leaned in for another kiss when Sabrina said, "why are you here at this time?" 

"Ouch. That hurt" said Elisio.

"I meant. It's the middle of the day." Said Sabrina.

"I had a headache and thought a good mid-day s.e.x would help. You are my medicine Mio Fiore" said Elisio and kissed Sabrina.

Sabrina giggled and said "how about I get you some tea and a painkiller first and then we could nap together and when we get up we can work on other activities" 

Elisio grunted and agreed and went up the stairs to their room.

Sabrina carried tea for Elisio to their room and found him in the bathroom.

Sabrina placed the tea on the nightstand and removed her phone from her long Maxy dress and called Ermanno.

"Hey mom," said Ermanno.

"Hello. How is my baby?" Asked Sabrina.

"I am good. What's up?"

"Not much. Just wanted to know about your honeymoon plans"

"Mom I am busy now. I'll plan about it later or not at all. I don't see the reason for it"

"Ermanno. Honeymoon is the time you both spend together to know eachother and create memories. I want you to go on your honeymoon. It's an order"

"Hahaha. it's cute when you order something. Fine. I'll plan on something."

"Ermanno. I also want you to give your 100 per cent to this marriage. Baby, give Rose a chance. And treat her well. A person never forgets if they are being physically or mentally abused. It scars them for life. And no matter how many times you ask for their forgiveness. It's hard for them to forget and forgive. Even if they forgive, they can never forget. Don't do anything you will regret later. Cause you can never take back what you have done. All that stays is regret."

"I'll keep that in mind mom." 

"Bye my love," said Sabrina and hung the phone. 

She looked up and saw Elisio standing in the middle of the room looking at her and he asked: "so you have never forgotten?"
