My chest began to rise and fall rapidly. He couldn't take my son away.
He gestured at one of his lawyers. His eyes were on me. He didn't pay attention to Jasper.
His lawyer stepped ahead. Dominic Black, he was the best lawyer in the state. I couldn't consider it a joke. He handed me a piece of paper. I gripped it with shaking hands and blankly stared at it. My eyes were already wide in shock.
I knew he was taking my baby away from me.

Carlos's POV "You have an option, Esme." I stared into her shocked eyes, "Come with us. Stay like a family. Or you are going alone without our son and..." I glanced down at her stomach. I would do anything to have her in my life. If she thought I'm a monster. Let her think, "I have the best lawyers. Money isn't a problem for me. You'll give birth to our child. But you won't ever see them." I told her. Tears rippled through the corners of her eyes, slipping in her rosy cheeks, "How could you be so cruel to the mother of your children?" I could feel her anger. I lifted one side of my lips, "The way you are cruel when you keep our son away from me." I tucked her hair behind her ear. I straightened, "You have five minutes to decide

My son was the happiest person to see his father at his side. I was expecting him to freak out, shout, but nothing happened and it was a relief. It was something more barbaric. He easily agreed to go with him. He seemed to forget me in his exaltation. 'Can I stay without Aidan? Can I live without seeing my unborn baby? No! I haven't thought my life without Aidan and.. ' I grabbed the blueprinted gown from the edge of the bed and scurried to the washroom. I changed in it hurriedly. I tucked my hair up in a messy bun, loose curly strands were brushing my cheeks and forehead, sad face, sad eyes. I would be walking dead without my babies. I took a deep sigh and walked to the door.

We walked up the stairs of his mansion to the double door. Aidan was holding my hand and I could hear him giggling. Carlos was looking at him with a full smile. I thought. He was still wondering if his son was a copy of him. I glanced over my shoulder, raking my gaze over the beautiful garden. I saw a valet driving his car away. He was going to make me feel as if I had come to another planet Beautiful than my little house. He put one possessive hand around my shoulders, sending a thrill down my spine. It could be by mistake. I cleared my throat. But he tugged me toward the stairs. I plucked my gaze from him to my son. I did not want him to fall, "Aidan, be careful, baby." He chuckled, "I'm not a baby, mom." Carlos laughed softly. An old woman in a white uniform opened

I moved to the vanity. I ran my fingers in my hair. My gaze stopped on the luxury behind me. The wedding day was on the horizon. I would never be ready for it. Jasper was a good friend now. But I couldn't forget he had used me to have his company back from his father. His parents were shocked when we signed the divorce papers. He wanted me to marry him. His threats! He looked serious. I didn't want him to take my babies away. I travelled my gaze over my stomach, 'I'm sorry baby. I don't want to ignore you but I need time to process it. I hope. You'll forgive your momma. Your father is furious at me for hiding everything. I don't want him to know. He is doing what I feared.' The door opened and his eyes stopped on me. I could feel his exasperation as he walked to me. "Is Aidan alright?" I spun. He scowled, "He loves his room. He

I woke up with a startle. His threats had left a deep effect on me. I was dreaming that he was taking my babies away from me. I hid my face in my hands. I needed to think about something else to escape from such nightmares. After his threatening endeavour, I couldn't find my feelings. But when he was around, I was drowning in them. I shouldn't forget. 'I'm married.' I frowned when I found myself in bed instead of on the couch. He came into the room then. My frown deepened. These weren't the clothes I was wearing. He needed to stop doing this. Realizing, I didn't know when did he come and go? I got up from bed and walked to the washroom. After taking a shower and getting ready for the day. I walked back to

His blue eyes were looking down at me with concern. I wasn't expecting after our argument and how did we get married. I wanted to apologize. But that would show me weak and give him more opportunities to blame things on me. Though, my heart said, he wouldn't do it. But I didn't want to take the risk. He commended situations and ruled everything that came his way. "Why are you crying, Angel?" His voice was smooth, suave, his blue gaze looking deep into me. I shook my head. My throat felt clogged.

I saw him leaning against his car, waiting too patiently. I glanced back at Livia and Lorraine. I was feeling shy like a little girl. After watching Elisa, I could bet no little girl would be shying like me. I pushed back the worried thoughts. "You're looking gorgeous. Now go," Lorraine's voice drifted from behind to me, " "I can understand it's your first date. But he's your husband, " Livia muttered in my ear. I dug my front teeth on my bottom lips, "We should ask Carlos to pick her up.'' Lorraine smiled brightly. " No," I squealed in a whisper.

It wasn't hard to figure out that something was wrong. It was looking more than just multivitamins. I glanced at him. 'He loves Aidan. He won't do anything that will endanger our baby.' I held the glass from him and swallowed the pills, "Do you wanna go out for a walk after the shower?" He asked, quietly. "What does the report say? You won't do all this for me. Because you don't care about me." I taunted him. "I haven't forgotten what you did." He squeezed his eyes shut and rubbed his fingers on his forehead, "I didn't mean to upset you,' He added quickly.

'He's so charming,' "Yes," I asked her. " You're uncharacteristically quiet," She said. "It still feels like a dream to me." I lowered my gaze. I didn't want to hide my feelings from my best friends. 'I can't tell her in which circumstances we got married. But this weekend. He was pretty serious with threats. I don't know whether to be upset and relieved about the wedding.
