“What’s wrong?” Kendra asks, sensing my unease.“It’s a message from Jim, said we need to talk when I’m off work” I say“Well nothing to worry about” she says, assuring me “you’ve always got me to stand beside you”“Well thank you, I think I should call Jim” I say, and excuse myself from the living room.While his line rings, my mind races with different thoughts as to why he needs to call me urgently and what he knows… what if he knows I’m pregnant?“Hey” I say, my voice coming out in a soft whisper, scared of what he’s going to say next“Hey princess, I didn’t expect you to be out of work by now, I thought you had a night shift” Jim says, his voice sounding soft and sweet through the phone.“Well baby, I closed earlier, there are more hands on deck so I guess I have less work” I say“Alright princess” he says“There’s something you wanted to tell me, what’s that?” I ask him“Well, I wanted to come pick you up then we could talk over car ride but I’m going to come over….

“You’re going on a business trip for a week” I say, realization is very clear in my voice.“What’s wrong?” He asks, looking at me in my eyes.“It’s just a week, been thinking you said I month” I say, laughing at my dumb realization but Jim doesn’t seem to be buying it.“I always knew I had an abnormal girlfriend” he says, and joins me to laugh, my laughter obviously being very much contagious.Mr Coleman interrupts our moment when he comes into the living room and places the goodies in the kitchen counter and he leaves.“That’s a lot baby” I say, looking into Jim’s inviting eyes“So what do you have in mind?” Jim asks, leaning close to me, his breath fanning my face.“What?” I ask, my voice stuck in my throat with the immediate rise of sexual tension in the air.“What do you have in mind for us to do princess?” He asks, his voice husky..“Not in the living room” I say, my smile rigid..“Your wish is my command baby” he says, and carries me by my leg, sweeping me off my feet, bridal st
Jim stands up from the bed and walks into the bathroom, and comes out with a warm towel.He places it on my thighs, helping me to clean up because I’m too weak to stand up.“I love what I do to you” Jim whispers to me and I smile weakly at him.“I love what I do to you too baby, how I make you moan in satisfaction, that feeling is top notch baby” I smile, satisfied with everything that happened between us.He finishes up from the bathroom and decides to join me in bedOur love blossoms in the glow of twilight, the world fading into the background as we cherish the closeness we've yearned for. Jim's laughter ripples through the air, a soothing melody that ignites the sparkle in his eyes."Anastasia," he begins, a playful grin tugging at his lips, "do you remember our first date?"A soft chuckle escapes me as I remember that special evening.

Jim’s POV.I arrive at the airport, and the hardest thing that I ever had to do was to say goodbye to Anastasia, she seats in the car and I could see the tears that are gathering in her eyes.I wonder why she’s crying so much, I’m going to be back soon.The ride to the country was a smooth one, considering the fact that I boarded a first class plane.Getting down from the airport, I get a call from Mr James.“Hello Mr Jim, I’ve sent your car to come pick you up and drop you at the location. The meeting starts in ten minutes” he tells me, not even giving me a chance to talk.I see the car that was assigned for my comfort and I get into the car.And this is the perks of being a multi billionaire that no one really talks about, the amount of meetings that we have to attend, just to keep our businesses high and surviving.Initially, Jonathan is meant to be going for these meetings, but instead, I’m the one that has to go for them.In the first meeting, my fellow executives and I discuss o
Anastasia’s POV“Baby have you gotten to the hotel?” I ask Jim, who has been on the call with me while he was in the car.“Yeah, and the room looks good at least” he says.“Okay, switch it over to a video call then, I want to see your face” I tell Jim and he does so…We talk about everything and anything, till we decide we’ve been on a call for too long and Jim needed to rest.“Baby take care, you have a long day ahead of you, so get some rest” I say, trying to convince Jim that he should quit being a baby and go to bed.“Okay I will, I love you and I miss your lips on mine” he says.“I sincerely love you too” I say and wave him goodbye before I disconnect the call.I place my phone on the table and immediately, I fall asleep.The morning sun, peeps into the room, causing me to wake up.I try to stand, but I’m too weak to. I seat up and my head begins to hurt severely. I feel unusually warm, my body radiating heat. I’m surprised, as I haven’t been sick in a long time. I glance at the
“What are you doing here?” Kendra asks, her voice bitter and evident with hate.Her presence as unwelcome as the unknown illness that ails me. Her eyes hold a manic intensity that sends shivers down my spine.“Anastasia,” she says with an eerie smile. “It’s been so long. I’ve missed you.”I’m left frozen, my mind racing to comprehend this unsettling encounter. The woman before me is a disturbing presence, one who clearly carries a storm of her own.As Jessica stands at the door with that unsettling smile, my mind whirls with confusion and fear. Her presence in my home is an intrusion I never anticipated."Jessica," I manage to say, my voice quivering, "what are you doing here?"She steps further into the room, her gaze fixed on me with an intensity that sends shivers down my spine. "I told you, Anastasia, I've missed you. You've been such a big part of our lives."Kendra, sensing the tension in the room, places herself protectively by my side. "This isn't the time, Jessica," she says
“Kendra, what’s going on?” I say, my voice is sad, my eyes are teary“Just don’t worry about it, she can’t hurt you” Kendra says, trying to assure me.And just then, the microwave makes a ding, telling us that the food has warmed up.“Let’s forget all about that, and just have some food okay?” Kendra says to me“I’ve lost my appetite Kens, I can’t eat, I can’t Fucking function without feeling like something is always going down in my life. Where yet he’ll did I fucking go wrong. All I ever wanted was to be a happy person like every other person, Kendra that’s all I ever fucking wanted..

Anastasia's POVMy heart pounds in my chest, fear gripping me like a vice. Jim's furious voice bellows through the phone, echoing in my ears. The words, “Are you fucking pregnant, Anastasia?” hang in the air, heavy with accusation. I can hardly believe what I'm hearing.And I know it’s true, but how did it happen?“Baby, please calm down,” I plead, my voice trembling, my eyes brimming with tears.But Jim's anger is uncontainable. He's like a wildfire, fierce and destructive. “Don't you fucking dare, Anastasia! Kill that thing!” he roars.My mind spins as I try to comprehend the hurricane of emotions that has suddenly engulfed me. The truth has finally surfaced, and I knew he was going to be like this. Because even though a part of me wanted to give him the benefit of doubt, I knew he would always be the scary Jim I feared.Jim's fury is like a tidal wave, crashing over me with force. The weight of his demands, the shock of his words, leaves me paralyzed.I never imagined this moment w

We freshen up, the anticipation of an evening of elegance and gastronomy adding an extra beat to our hearts.In the soft glow of our bedroom, Jim and I stand facing our wardrobe, selecting the perfect attire for our evening at Le Paragon.

I suggest"That sounds like a fantastic idea. Let's do it." Jim saysOur dialogue turns into a playful exchange as we make our way to the inviting warmth of the hot tub. The bubbles swirl around us, and the aroma of fresh coffee mingles with the crisp morning air."This is bliss. We should do this more often.
