Chapter 7

Marilyn's POV

Today is the day I'm going to perform surgery as an assistant surgeon. I'm nervous would be an understatement. I'm terrified. What if surgery failed or if I do something wrong?

Alessandro has been assuring me I'll be fine and I'm glad that he trusts me. Last night when he confessed that he'll there to catch me, it stirred something inside my heart.

We are walking on a thin line. This relationship can destroy us both but neither of us cares.

We are drowning in our passion. I'm falling for my professor hard and fast and I can only hope he'll be there to catch me as he promised.

His mere thought brought a smile on my lips. "Ms Wilson", his voice broke my thoughts away.

I looked up at him and my breath hitched at the sight in front of me. Alessandro was wearing a blue shirt and black slacks but that's not what took my breath away. It was his smile. He was grinning at me and Holy mother of god did he look like a sexy beast with that smile.
