Naya's POVAs we walked into Frederick's house, I was surprised to see that I knew him from the streets I stayed on when I was younger. He used to live on the same street with me then. We got to talk a few times at that time. But, we weren’t so fond of each other. Seeing him all of a sudden surprised me and it made me happy. I felt joy inside of me. I had wanted to associate with a few more people from the outside world, but it felt like all I had was just Talon and the inner me. It was a pleasant surprise, and we hugged each other tightly. It felt good to see someone who had known me for a long time, and who could share in our happiness.We were all sitting in the living room, chatting away, and I was getting along great with Frederick's wife. Talon seemed happy that I was comfortable and that I was enjoying myself. He had never seen me with any friends, or heard me calling anyone, so I could tell that he was happy that I was happy. He kept staring at me almost every time I looked
Naya's POVTalon was acting strange the whole day. He was constantly staring at me with a dreamy look in his eyes and he kept asking me if I needed anything. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on in his mind."Talon, what's wrong?" I asked, trying to get him to open up."Nothing's wrong, Naya. I just want to spoil you today," he replied with a smile."Talon, you don't have to do this. I'm happy just being with you," I said, feeling overwhelmed by his gestures."I know you are, but I want to do this for you. You deserve it," he said, looking at me with affection in his eyes.I couldn't help but feel a warm fuzzy feeling in my chest. I knew Talon cared for me deeply, but I never expected him to go to such lengths to make me happy. I never believed that he was going to ever tell me that he wanted to spoil me. I thought what we were having was just more like friendship. To me, I was just a flatmate to Talon. But, it seemed like there was more to it from his part. Even if he never
Naya’s POVTalon had gone out to buy breakfast, but I could barely stomach thinking about eating anything at all. Something had gone seriously wrong with my body; I had been sleeping a lot and throwing up, suggesting something other than simply stomach upset was at play here. I needed to know what was wrong with me. I was so sure that something was wrong with me. I was ready to try to check up on my health. I believed that it was the perfect time to do it. Talon might become alarmed, so to ease his worries I decided to go alone to the hospital. Just so he wouldn't worry too much I told him I was taking a walk around town instead so as not to alarm him further. After all I never wanted him to know what was wrong with me. He had constantly convinced me to do a checkup, but I never agreed. Letting him know that I finally accepted to go to the hospital wasn’t a good idea to me.As soon as I arrived at the hospital, I made an immediate beeline to the emergency department where they took
Talon's POVNaya had been sleeping for a while when we arrived at our hotel. I parked our things with the help of a maid and tried to be as quiet as possible. I didn't want to wake her up. We had had a long day and would soon travel, and she needed her rest. I didn’t have a problem with her constant weakness. All I wanted to figure out was her health status. I just wanted to be sure that she was alright. That was all that mattered to me. I was patiently waiting for her to get the mail and tell me what the heck was wrong with her. I wasn’t willing to let her go without knowing the main cause of her weakness and constant sleeps. Even if she didn’t want me to be a part of it, I still wanted to be part of it. I was ready to give her the best treatment and ensure that even if she left my house, she would be leaving in good health. So, I tried to monitor her health, but too bad, I couldn't tell what was wrong with her. My only option was to wait for the results that Naya was expecting.
Talon's POVThe next day when Naya was about to go out of bed, I stopped her. I didn’t want her to get up from bed since she seemed pale.“I’m not letting you out of this bed till you tell me the truth. Why were you crying yesterday? Or, did you think that I didn’t find out? I saw it all. I even tried to speak to you but you totally ignored me. I’m interested in knowing what made you react that way. You need to tell me everything. Don’t hide a thing from me,” I said.“I wasn’t hiding anything from you,” she said coldly.“There you go again. Why are you trying to lie to me? Do I seem that dumb to you? I saw everything you did. You just need to tell me the truth. What were you hiding from me the whole of last night? Why didn’t you want me to read the mail?”“It’s alright, Talon. You win! I’d tell you everything.”“Please, do.”“What I was hiding had to do with the hospital. I just wasn’t sure if I wanted you to see it just yet. But, since you’ve insisted to see it, I guess I’ll just let
Talon’s POVI knew I had to be proactive about Naya's pregnancy. I didn't want to take any chances, and I wanted to make sure she was healthy and safe. So, without her knowing, I went to the hospital to get some advice from the doctor. The doctor gave me a list of precautions that Naya needed to take, and I made a mental note of everything. I knew I had to take care of her and our unborn child, and I wasn't going to let anything happen to them. I had to do my best to ensure that they were always okay. I knew that if I had told Naya that I was going to the hospital, she would’ve hesitated. I made sure that I got acquainted to the long list of things the doctor told me to give to her. One of such things was quality rest, and I was willing and ready to give her as much rest as possible. I was just so eager to meet my first child that I forgot about everything else. What I kept thinking about was the baby and Naya. After my conclusions with the doctor, I made sure to return back to the
Naya's POVI was surprised as Talon rattled off the precautions we needed to take to ensure my safety. He had clearly done his research and knew exactly what to do to protect me and our unborn child. But despite his efforts, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was burdening him. I honestly wanted to know how he got so good in the precautionary methods he was taking, but I didn’t know how I was going to ask him. I felt that it would steer up some sort of argument. I didn’t want to get into any fights with Talon. I just wanted us to live in peace and harmony. I liked how things had been moving smoothly with Talon and I. I saw the niceness in him that I had never seen before. And, I wasn’t willing to take him for granted, especially after what he had done for me. I didn’t want to feel too entitled even if I was carrying his child.So, I sat him down and told him everything. How I felt like a weight on his shoulders, how I didn't want to hold him back. Talon was hurt by my words, and
Eric's POVI sat in my room, deep in thought about the property. It had been on my mind for weeks, and I couldn't seem to shake it. I just couldn't forget how Talon and Naya had deceived me without a single thought. If Talon had not lied to me, the property would’ve been his a long time ago, but he did lie. I didn’t want to make a mistake in handing over the property to just anyone. I admit that Nelson was my son, but I just felt like he wasn’t the perfect match for the property. I felt like he wasn’t ready to handle what lies ahead. He had been so desperate in having the property to the extent that he had grown to hate me fot not handing over the property to him. Talon on the other hand had kept a low profile since his fight with Nelson. He didn’t say a word to me, just like I said none to him too. But, who really was going to be fit to handle the property? Was it Talon whom I had lost faith in? Or, was it Nelson the over ambitious son of mine? Or, perhaps an outsider? Just as I w
