Chapter 15 - The Unbreakable Alliance

"Your father stood against the men who tried to kill me two weeks ago," Adrian said, his dark eyes fierce with protective honor. "You don't ever have to hide under a fake name again, Elena. As long as I breathe, the Moretti family will stand as your shield."
Elena looked up into his eyes, feeling a heavy weight lifting off her chest for the first time in six agonizing years.
Out on the green lawn, Sophia's bright laughter echoed under the warm afternoon sun. She was running in a circle wearing her favorite pink floral dress, tossing a small red ball across the grass.
Titan chased after the ball with joyful leaps, catching it gently and bringing it right back to Sophia's feet, wagging his tail happily.
Adrian turned toward the garden, watching the little girl and his loyal beast under the bright sky.
"She gave this house its heart back, Elena," Adrian murmured softly.
"She just saw a big dog who needed love," Elena smiled, wiping a joyful tear from her eye.
