Chapter: FLASH BACKI still remember the moment I realized whose room it was.,that day when I was being chased by those crazed high teenagers.I’d stumbled backward, barely catching myself, my lungs burning, my heart beating so hard it felt bruised. The door was already open. I’d seen it swing wider as I fell in, seen the shadow of Noah Wellington at the edge of my vision, seen him glance past me and catch sight of the teenagers disappearing down the corridor.My brain hadn’t caught up yet.“Stay here,” he said sharply, already moving.He stepped out into the hallway, barefoot, and for a split second I watched him from behind, watched him scan the empty passage like he might actually go after them. But they were gone. Whoever they were, whatever they’d been on, they’d vanished.He came back in, shut the door, and turned to me.That’s when it hit me.Noah.My boss.And I was standing in his room.I tried to explain. I swear I did. My mouth opened, but nothing sensible came out. My tongue felt thick, usele

Chapter: TRUTH UNVEILEDFor a second, I thought I’d misheard her.The room felt too quiet, like all the sound had been sucked out of it. I stared at her, my brain refusing to cooperate.“What baby?” I repeated, slower this time, like saying it differently might change the meaning.The doctor didn’t look surprised. If anything, she looked careful. She folded her hands on the desk and leaned forward slightly.“You’re pregnant,” she said gently.The word hit me wrong. Not sharp. Not explosive. Just heavy. Like it landed somewhere deep in my chest and refused to move.“That’s not possible,” I said immediately. Too fast. Too certain.She nodded, like she’d expected that response. “We haven’t done an ultrasound yet,” she explained calmly. “But your blood work is very clear. Your hormone levels are consistent with early pregnancy. Combined with your fainting, the nausea noted that night, the fatigue, and the stress your body’s been under—it lines up.”I felt dizzy again.Early pregnancy.I shook my head, trying to

Chapter: TEAAURELIA’S POVOnce I was inside the car and the door shut behind me, my thoughts finally caught up with me.Why was he acting like that?Cold. Distant. Like whatever happened between us hadn’t even existed. Like last night was something he could just lock away and move on from. The more I thought about it, the tighter my chest felt.And then there was what he said about the hospital.The hospital wants to see you privately.Why?For what reason?What could they possibly want from me?The questions piled up fast, each one heavier than the last, until my head felt crowded with them. I stared out the window, not really seeing anything, just replaying his tone, his expression, the way he wouldn’t meet my eyes.My phone vibrated in my hand.I looked down.A message from Noah.Just an address. No explanation. No greeting. Nothing else.That somehow hurt more than it should have.I stared at the screen for a few seconds, then locked it, my curiosity already burning. Whatever this was, I need

Chapter: THOUGHTSNoah’s POVThe previous night,The switch in her caught me off guard.One second she was right there with me, open, warm, completely present. The next, it was like something slammed shut behind her eyes. I saw it the moment she stepped back. Not anger. Not disgust. Fear. Or maybe doubt. And that scared the hell out of me more than anything else could have.She turned toward the door, and my body reacted before my head could catch up. I wanted to move. I wanted to cross the room in two strides, plant my hand on the door, box her in, make her look at me. Really look at me.I wanted to tell her to look me in the eyes and say she didn’t feel what I felt.To tell me this was nothing.That it didn’t mean anything to her.Because once she walked out that door, I knew it. Whatever this was, whatever almost happened, it wouldn’t exist again in the same way. There would be no rewinding it. No pretending we didn’t cross a line we both saw coming.But then the other thought hit me. Hard.What if I

Chapter: HURTI didn’t even remember how I ended up in bed. The last clear memory I had was leaning against my bedroom door, trying to breathe, trying to steady myself after everything that happened downstairs.Maybe I crawled into bed at some point. Maybe my body just shut down and carried me there on autopilot. All I knew was that I’d been exhausted before, but nothing compared to how drained I felt after last night.My one-week break from work was still valid, so at least I wouldn’t have to drag myself into the office. But that didn’t solve the bigger problem: I was still in Noah’s house.I lay there for a while, staring at the ceiling, replaying every moment from the night before. Every look, every near-touch, every line I almost crossed.How on earth was I supposed to face him after that?I didn’t even trust myself enough to stay under the same roof with him.My mind wandered to where he might be right now. Was he awake? Was he thinking about it too? Or had he already buried the whole moment l

Chapter: LET HER GOAurelia’s chest heaved as she stepped back, trying to put space between them, but the heat of him still lingered, crawling along her skin like a stubborn shadow. She wanted him. God, she wanted him. Every nerve in her body was screaming for it. Every pulse, every shiver, every instinct begged her to melt back into him.But her brain… her brain was screaming louder.She wasn’t scared of Noah. Not really. She had no fear of him as a man—he was no stranger, no predator. It wasn’t that. It was the logic buried beneath the want.Even if her body begged for it, her mind knew this wasn’t right.She thought about the night with the blonde. The drugs, the confusion, the haze that made her forget her own boundaries. That was one thing—she hadn’t known, hadn’t been fully herself. This… this was different. She was awake, aware, and every thought screamed caution.She wasn’t the kind of woman who did one-night stands. She hadn’t ever been. And this—whatever it was with Noah—it was building into so

Chapter: SILENT CLAIMSSophia sat at the outdoor dinner table, feeling the gentle breeze of the evening against her skin. The dinner, a grand affair hosted for all the cruisers, had been a pleasant experience so far. The food was exquisite, the atmosphere vibrant, and the night sky slowly transitioned into a canvas of stars. She and Robert had spent most of the evening chatting lightly, sipping champagne and enjoying the ambiance. But as she took another sip, Robert’s phone buzzed on the table.He glanced at the screen, muttered something about needing to take the call, and stood up, excusing himself with a polite nod. Sophia watched him stroll a few feet away, his figure highlighted by the soft glow of the outdoor lights.Now alone, she scrolled through her phone absentmindedly, her champagne glass dangling delicately from her other hand. The gentle hum of conversations surrounded her until a pair of voices drifted into her ears, clear enough to catch her attention.“I don’t think they’re in a relationship

Chapter: CAREFUL!!Sophia stepped out onto the balcony, hoping for a breath of fresh air and maybe a view of the ocean. The scene before her was more stunning than she had anticipated. The soft glow of the setting sun cast a warm, golden light over everything, making the water sparkle, and the sheer elegance of the balcony layout took her breath away. But what really caught her eye was the surprise waiting right there—an exclusive, small pool nestled in one corner of the balcony. It was a luxurious touch she hadn’t expected.Her excitement bubbled up immediately. She’d thought their suite was impressive enough already, but this was on another level. She turned, a wide grin spreading across her face, and rushed back into the room. “Robert!” she called, her voice full of the thrill that had taken hold of her. “There’s a pool out here! Can you believe it?” She glanced over at him, practically bouncing as she waited for his reaction.Robert looked up from his iPad, an amused smile tugging at the corner of h

Chapter: LUXURYSOPHIA'S POV The hostess led us down a polished corridor, her heels clicking against the marble floors as we followed in awe. Everything around us screamed opulence—from the crystal chandeliers to the plush carpets lining the hallway. It was like we’d stepped into a world that only existed in glossy magazines and movies. And yet, here we were, soaking it all in like it was made for us. I stole a glance at Robert, who seemed unbothered, his expression cool and composed. Just another day for him, I guess. For me? I couldn’t help but feel like I was getting away with something here.The hostess turned back to us with a smile and gestured down another corridor. "Right this way, please. You’re in the VVIP section," she said, her voice carrying an unmistakable note of respect. I couldn't hide my shock. VVIP? I knew Robert was well-off, but this was next level.I kept quiet, not wanting to seem like a total newbie, but my mind was racing. Most people would’ve been thrilled just to be on the

Chapter: TOURAs we stepped off the yacht and onto the dock where the larger boat was anchored, I took a quick survey of the setup. The boat—a luxurious vessel with sleek lines and a shining exterior—towered over the yachts that had started to gather around. Some other guests were already disembarking their own yachts and making their way up the ramp, mingling, exchanging greetings, laughing. It was a decent crowd, a mix of wealth and status, judging by the designer suits and glamorous dresses. I noted it all, but none of really intrigued me. Boats, parties, all this was pretty standard at this point.Sophia looked around, wide-eyed, her excitement practically radiating off her. It was a look I’d seen before on her—the curiosity, the fascination with the world of luxury, although she still has her elegant touch. I watched as her gaze swept over the dock, from the polished rails of the boat to the crew members in their crisp uniforms. It was amusing seeing her like this, clearly enjoying herself.

Chapter: ON OUR WAYSOPHIA'S POV As Robert and I arrived at the boarding area, I took a moment to take it all in. There was a small crowd gathered, all dressed impeccably, their conversations weaving together in a hum of polished accents and subtle laughter. It felt like the kind of scene where the rich and powerful came to unwind, but still with a sense of formality clinging to them. No one looked too relaxed—everyone here was a bit on display.My eyes scanned the faces, catching glimpses of people I’d only ever seen on magazine covers or social media. To my right, a woman in a sleek black dress adjusted her sunglasses as she took photos by the water’s edge. Definitely a social media influencer. Beside her stood a man whose face I recognized from a viral tech article about his latest app that made millions overnight. He was talking animatedly to a well-dressed older couple, his hands moving in exaggerated gestures, like he was pitching a story rather than just making small talk. And then there was us,

Chapter: DAY 1SOPHIA'S POV The weekend had been… honestly, just so good. I’d be lying if I said it wasn't nice having someone like Robert around. We’d spent hours walking through the garden, and even though the place was way too fancy for what I was used to, it somehow felt natural. Trying new dishes the chef whipped up had turned into a little game, too—some stuff was amazing, and other things… let’s just say I was glad Robert didn’t make fun of me too much when I nearly spat out that one dish. Then there were the movie nights, hours just sinking into the couch, and the light competition of board games. I didn’t even mind that Robert kept winning because it was fun watching him get competitive about things so small. And, okay, we definitely took a few whiskey shots here and there. Not like, drunk, but just enough to feel loose and laugh harder at things that weren’t even that funny. It was the kind of weekend I hadn’t realized I’d needed. Now, though, it was cruise day. The morning had flown
