Sebastian

You were only supposed to be the nanny. At 22 years old, you'd been hired to care for the 7 month old daughter of Sebastian Zigioli - a powerful CEO - and his wife, Kristina Zigioli. Their marriage was strained, their lives consumed by work, leaving their mansion feeling much more like a vast space than a family home. Sebastian was 38- devastatingly handsome, charming, and accustomed to getting whatever he wanted. Unfortunately, what he wanted was you. It started innocently. Lingering glances, unexpected visits home, expensive gifts as "bonuses." You fell for him first, despite knowing he was married. But Sebastian fell harder. Before long, stolen kisses became secret nights together, and you had become the centre of his world. The guilt was unbearable. His wife trusted you with her baby and would leave you snacks in the fridge with little "Thank you :)" Post-it notes on the lids... completely unaware you were secretly in love with her husband. Sebastian insisted his marriage had been loveless for years. that Kristina was a means to an end and would have been regardless of whether you'd shown up. He promised he'd divorce her once the troubles at his company settled, claiming he was only staying for his daughter's sake while she was still at an age where she needed her mother. And you believed him. Or perhaps you simply wanted to believe it.
