Chapter 71 - 70

Ermanno walked into the mansion and the first thing he wanted to see was Sabrina.

He looked for her and found her in the garden reading a book seated on the lawn swing.

Ermanno always heard his father call her delicate flower. And he couldn't agree more.

Ermanno walked to Sabrina and called her "mummy"

Sabrina looked up and saw Ermanno then She looked back down at her book and didn't say anything.

Ermanno took a seat next to her and said "I am sorry"

"You are here because Rose wants you. And I am still angry at you. You did wrong and you need to be punished. The only punishment I can give you is that you will stay away from me." Said Sabrina.

"Kill me instead mummy," said Ermanno.

"I didn't give you birth to kill you. And whereas for my forgiveness.

I will forgive you when Rose forgives you" said Sabrina.

Ermanno smiled at Sabrina and only looked at her.

Sabrina looked up at Ermanno and asked: "why are you smiling?"

"You look adorable when you are angry," said Ermanno.

Sabrina bit her lower lip to stop herself from smiling.

Ermanno went close to Sabrina and kissed her cheek and held her tight side ways and said "I love you the most in the whole world. You have no idea how important you are to me" and shed tears.

Sabrina shed her own tears and said "you know I was in an abusive relationship too. Your father beat me up so bad one time that I ended up almost dead. I still remember the day I woke up from my coma. I was so disappointed that I was alive."

"Mummy," said Ermanno losing his grip of her, shocked to hear that his father hit her Mom to almost her death.

"Yes. I was a naive Indian girl who didn't know anything about s.e.x or BDSM or myself. Your father only wanted to control me and own me. He never gave me a chance to truly understand me. Ermanno, you don't know how it feels to have no self-respect. You don't know how helpless you feel when you can't fight back. You are not only hurt physically but something breaks inside of you which can never be fixed. Did you know Enrique remembers me from when I was married and was a new bride and also remembers when I came back to your father after staying away from him for a while after he almost killed me? Enrique told me that he saw me change and when he came to know about what I went through with your father he never wanted to live a BDSM lifestyle.

If a child who was only 4 or 5 could see the pain, then tell me how am I to ignore Rose's pain when I went through it myself."

"Mummy I can't believe dad did that to you. How can you forgive him?" Asked Ermanno.

Sabrina looked at Ermanno and said, "how can Rose forgive you?".

"Mummy the truth is different than it seems. Please trust me." Said Ermanno.

"I don't want to discuss more of this Ermanno. All I know is your father worked hard for my forgiveness. He even went to a rehab centre to make himself better. Do what you have to do to make yourself better. But please don't abuse a girl in the name of BDSM." Said Sabrina and got up and walked into the mansion. Ermanno went to his room and didn't find Rose. He looked around and found her sleeping in one of the guest rooms. He looked at her and all he wanted was to kill her and die with her.

He caressed her cheek and woke her up and smiled and said "hello mio Rosa. How are you?"

"I am good. Comfortable being loved by my mummy" said Rose.

"MY mummy has a lot of love to spread. I have seen her love many children who were rejected by their own family." Said Ermanno.

"Now you will witness her hate to her own son," said Rose.

"My mummy will never hate me. Anyways, come to my room. I need to show you something" said Ermanno.

"Carry me," said Rose putting her hands up.

Ermanno smiled at her and carried her to his room. He took her to his closet and opened a locked door which was of a wardrobe.

Rose was stunned to see her pictures in them with Ermanno from a very young age.

She was watching the pictures when Ermanno came behind her and held her by her waist and said "I have always loved you. Though I tried fighting against it, I couldn't stop loving you. I am tired of playing the love-hate game. From now, all I want to do is love you and love our child."

Rose wanted to forget everything too but then her mind never could forget what she went through. Ermanno had to suffer. Ermanno was being very patient with Rose though she would try to create drama or issues related to Ermanno. But every time was beaten by Elisio.

Sabrina saw how Ermanno was really trying and started to forgive him.

Even the whole family started to see the change in Ermanno and started to accept him as a changed and responsible person. Today was Thomas and Julia's wedding and everyone were gathered to celebrate the event.

Rose had planned to make a huge scene in front of everyone.

Elisio always had an eye on Rose and when he saw her trying to take Ermanno to a secluded place behind the venue he followed her.

Elisio saw her arguing with Ermanno on something and then she started banging her head on the wall. Ermanno was trying to stop her but she suddenly started screaming.

Elisio went behind her and pressed a pressure point on her neck and she went unconscious.

Ermanno held her in his arms and looked up at Elisio and said "dad, what did you do?"

"Don't worry boy. She is only unconscious. Take her home and I'll meet you there soon." Said Elisio. Ermanno took Rose home and changed her clothes to some comfortable clothes.

After a while Sabrina came in to check on Rose and smiled at Ermanno to have taken good care of her.

Sabrina informed Ermanno that Thomas and Julia left to their honeymoon and were asking for him and Rose.

Sabrina left to change and Elisio patted Ermanno's back and said "you know what to do next"

Ermanno nodded. Elisio entered his room to see Sabrina change. He stood at the doorway and watched her.

Sabrina looked at Elisio and said "perv"

"Only for you roba piccante (hot stuff)" said Elisio and walked close to her and said "we are going to a mini-honeymoon tomorrow morning"

"What bought that up?" Asked Sabrina.

"Because I love you and I know once the baby is here I will not have you for only me," said Elisio pouting his lips.

Sabrina circled her hands around his neck and kissed his lips and said "you look adorable when you pout"

"You are basically the only person who calls me adorable," said Elisio.

"I know. Because only I see you with all the love in the world. I love you mio Elisio"

"Ti amo Mio Fiore ( I love you Mio Fiore)" said Elisio and kissed her and picked her so that she could straddle his torso and took her to their bed.
