AURELIA'S POV:
"I hate you."
"I fucking hate you." Alessandro growls at me, and this time I can't stop the tears that escape my closed lids.
"I hate that you made me love you."
"I hate that you turned my world upside down." Alessandro says in a tone filled with so much emotion that it makes me hard to hold in my sobs.
"I hate that I can't have you." Alessandro finally says.
Everywhere is quiet for a few seconds before I feel Alessandro tugging on the cloth binding my wrists to the bed. The moment my wrists are free, I immediately take off the blindfold.
Alessandro's eyes are red rimmed as he stare intensely into my eyes.
"I love you too." I whisper in a heated moment.
I don't know why I say those words, but maybe it's because I want him to know that he's not alone in his feelings.
"It hurts. It hurts so much." I say as the tears roll down my cheeks in torrents.
