Aria’s POV

The sunlight streamed through the windows, gently nudging me awake. My eyes fluttered open, and for a moment, I just laid there, listening to Dante’s clean musk, Enzo’s cologne, Matteo’s earthy scent. I the birds singing outside. The bed was warm, soft, and it still smelled like them sighed, hugging the blanket tighter around me, feeling a slow smile form on my lips.

Last night replayed in my mind like a dream- full of fire, passion, and warmth. My body was still tingling, pleasantly sore in places, and my heart was full in a way I couldn’t explain. It was overwhelming… but good.

After a few minutes of lying there in that peaceful bubble, I forced myself to sit up. 1 freshened up quickly washed my face, brushed my teeth, ran a comb through my hair and then noticed something sitting on the nightstand. A small, folded piece of paper.

Enzo’s. I unfolded it and smiled at the message inside:

Vou don’t mind sweating in- and prepare to be impressed. D, M & E

I let out a small laugh. Of course they would write something like that.

I pulled open the closet and found the gym wear Chiara had helped me unpack earlier. I grabbed a black sports bra and matching leggings that hugged my body perfectly. After slipping on my sneakers and tying my hair up into a high ponytail, I headed downstairs.

As I reached the bottom floor, the delicious smell of breakfast hit me. My stomach growled loudly, and I followed the scent toward the dining

room.

When I walked in, I was surprised to find Chiara and a beautiful older woman sitting at the table, chatting and laughing. The woman looked elegant, with warm eyes and soft features that reminded me of the triplets.

Chiara grinned as soon as she saw me. “Well, well. Look who finally joined the land of the living.”

I smiled shyly. “Good morning.”

The older woman stood up and came toward me. “Hiw are you Aria, I hope you slept well” she said warmly, taking both of my hands in hers. “Those boys didn’tstress you i hope.”

“Oh! No no, i slept good,” I said, trying not to sound too nervous. She me feel safe.

She pulled me into a soft hug. “Thank you for giving them another chance.”

I glanced at Chiara, who was trying not to laugh.

“We were just talking about you,” Chiara said, her eyes twinkling with mischief. “Or should I say… about your very special night.”

My cheeks burned. “Chiara…”

She held up her hands. “Hey, I’m just saying. You walked in here glowing. That post–triplet glow is something serious.”

I choked on my laugh, and even Rita chuckled softly. “Chiara, don’t embarrass the girl.”

“Too late,” I muttered, sitting down at the table.

We all laughed, and it felt good–light and warm. Rita served me a plate with fluffy eggs, toast, and fruit. I thanked her and started eating. It was one of the best breakfasts I’d had in a while – maybe because it tasted like love and comfort.

So, where’s this training room I was asked to be there?” I asked, wiping my mouth after we finished eating.

Chiara leaned in and smirked. “Oh, you’re gonna love it. Head down the hall, turn left at the wall full of scary knives, then follow the sound of grunting testosterone and overachieving.”

I snorted. “Thanks for the map.”

“Anytime.”

I said my goodbyes and headed toward the hallway she pointed out. The villa was beautiful

every corner held history, warmth, and elegance.

I paused for a moment, admiring the black–and–white family photos on the walls. Little versions of Dante, Enzo, and Matteo smiled back at me in suits, school uniforms, and birthday hats.

My heart squeezed. It was so cute

When I reached a thick door with a silver handle, I heard faint noises from inside and the thud of footsteps. I pushed the door open.

The training room was huge.
