Chapter 244
Valentino's POV
Love is the strongest of all emotions because it assaults the heart, the mind, and the senses all at once. It heals in profound ways that are incomprehensible to us.
That kind of love was within me, filling every molecule of my being and submerging me entirely. It was the only thing keeping me sane, even if it drove me insane.
Life exists where love exists. Her love freed and saved me in my universe. It was her sweet, loving affection that kept me alive. Her perseverance, fortitude, and prayers kept me together and gently prodded me to open my eyes and face the darkness of death.
Every day, while I was agonizingly imprisoned in my body, I could hear her gentle voice, sense her calming touch, and inhale her delightful aroma as she entered the room. Every time, I wanted to tell her how much I adored and loved her, and I wanted to keep every promise I had made to her. I wanted to get up and embrace her tightly.
