CHAPTER 16AUTHOR'S POVAiden and Fiona lay on the bed. The both of them were unable to go back to sleep no matter how hard they tried. Aiden got up immediately. "Do you want to do something? Maybe talk? There's no way that I can go to bed with this much tension between us" Aiden said. Fiona shook her head. She didn't want to have a conversation with him. She had a feeling that she will lose control of herself if she dared to talk to him in this condition. "I think that we should have some wine in the living room. What do you think?" Fiona asked.Aiden smiled. "Of course" he said. .....Half an hour later, the both of them were in the living room drunk. Or rather Fiona was drunk. She grinned at Aiden. "You know that you are so good looking right?" She asked him.Aiden was shocked to hear this from Fiona But then he saw that her eyes weren't focused at all and he immediately knew what was going on with her. She's just dead drunk. She doesn't have control over any of her actions n
AUTHOR POV"Go away" he said and pushed her away. Fiona looked at Aiden with anger and disappointment in her eyes. But he really didn't care anymore. Or he didn't even want to care. He just want to her to be out of this place. He can't afford to make this mistake. "What the hell is wrong with you? One second you want it and another you want me to get lost?. Why do you have so many mood twists?" She asked me. "Just get out Fiona. Get out now" Aiden said. He need her to get out of here before he does something that he will regret. Right now, the only thing he could think of was pinning her on the bed and having his way with her. .the alcohol isn't doing much to help either. He really needs her to get out of here before he falls to the temptation and does something that he will regret. She got up and scoffed at him. "have a good time wacking off all by yourself!" She said and walked into the bedroom. She's right. He'll be jacking off all by myself. As Aiden closed his eyes, he
AIDEN'S POVI didn't sleep a single wink all through the night. All that I could think about was the woman who was lying on my bed sleeping through her drunken episode. I know that I should have known better than to let her drink yesterday. I should not have suggested getting the edge off. I should have just let her gone to bed. I did what I thought would be a nice thing and I ended up getting myself in trouble. I jerked off to thoughts of her two more times before I finally was tired enough to sleep. And even at that, I didn't dare to enter the bed room because I didn't want to get myself into trouble. I slept on the couch and it was a very uncomfortable sleep for me. Immediately I woke up, I went to take a bath. I was expecting that she was going to sleep until late in the morning because she had quite a lot to drink but she suprised me when she woke up early. I had just come out from the bathroom when I saw her lying on the bed with a lazy look on her face. She immediately sta
FIONA'S POVI shook my head meekly. I had no idea that j had done any of these things. And I really felt horrible for them. What was I doing trying to jump a man? My head must have been lost its reasoning! I so badly wanted to bury myself in the ground right now. *Do you want me to keep going and on about the things that you did yesterday? I'm sure that we can talk about it all day and not get tired of it!" Aiden said. His words really shocked me. I shook my head in the negative. I didn't want to hear anything more. I didn't want to listen to how much of a fool I've made of myself. *No, I don't want to listen to it anymore. Please just stop. I'm really sorry. I'll make sure that this won't happen again. I'm sure of that" I said. "Fiona, don't you ever dare get drunk when I am not there. Not everyone is as kind as I am and I am sure that there will be lots of men who will be waiting to take advantage of you. If you ever did what you did with me with anyone else, I'm sure that he wo
FIONA'S POV"You are getting married?" Someone asked me. I turned to see Houston glaring at me. My heart skipped a beat when I saw him. He looked angry. I have never seen my older brother this angry before and it scared me for some reason. It was as if Aiden could sense my fear because he gripped my hand tighter. He turned to his friend with a dead pam look on his face. "Yes, we are married now Houston. I hope that you can give us your blessings!" Aiden said. He sounded so confident. How can he be so confident? Doesn't he feel scared at all? "What the fuck is the meaning of this? How can you be married to my sister? The both of you just met a while ago! How can....how is this possible?" Houston asked. "Yes Aiden. I asked my daughter to work for you because I know that you are going to take care of her for Houston's sake. I didn't ask you to get married to her. What is going on here? How did the both of you end up married?" My dad asked. Aiden still had that confident look on hi
FIONA’s POVAiden stepped in just then. “Actually, she didn't just run off to get married to me. The both of us have already started to develop feelings for each other before this. When she found out that you were going to make her get married to her brother, we decided to make a drastic decision and just get married first.” He explained.“We are sorry if this annoyed you but we really didn't have a choice. You were going to make her get married to her older brother!" Aiden said. I noticed that he placed extra emphasis on the word "brother" and I also noticed how Houston's expression darkened whenever Aiden said the word "brother"I shook my head. I was determined to not even think about it. Even though I never liked Houston that much, he has been my brother since I was young. I can't even entertain the thought of living as his wife.."Aiden, I didn't ask you a question. I was talking to my daughter. She should give me an explanation! Tell me why she went off to get married without
FIONA'S POVI sighed. what should I do? I don't want to hurt him but he's really only a brother to me. "You see what you've caused? He's your brother! What's so bad about marrying him since the both of you are not blood related! At least we know that he's going to take care of you! We know that he's a good man because he's been with us his entire life! You instead went off and got married to someone else instead! Is this how we raised you?" Dad yelled at me after Houston stormed away. "Dad! You said it yourself that he's my older brother! There's no way I can get married to my older brother! It's odd to me! Don't tell me that we are not blood related because none of that makes sense anyway! Even if we are not blood related, we are still siblings! I can't get married to him!" I said. "I think that you should go and talk to your brother" mom said to me. I sighed. I care about Houston. As a brother. Besides, I don't want whatever it is that I'm doing with Aiden to affect their frien
FIONA'S POV"What? What happened between you? When did all of this happen?""I slept with him" *What?!" Houston yelled. He was pacing back and forth in the room with anger blazing in his eyes now. "Houston calm down! It's not like he took advantage of me! It's what the both of us wanted!" I said but Houston was having none of this! "I can't believe this! I told that bastard to take care of you and he went on to sleep with you! Who does that to the sister of his best friend?" Houston asked. "Like I said Houston, the both of us are already adults! And he didn't take advantage of me at all! He wanted it as much as I wanted it so stop acting like he stole something away from me!" I said.I really hope that this will just him to shut up. I don't want Houston to go back there and embarrass all of us. Besides, my dad is still mad with Aiden. He sull definitely kill him if he finds out that he slept with me before marriage. "But you are my sister! He was supposed to treat you as a sister

Author povStanding outside the bar, to a corner with lights but devoid of people, Fiona had her eyes closed as she breathed slowly. She felt tired and dizzy and was incredibly craving for alcohol which she couldn't drink. She had to hold on for a few more months.She placed her hand on her stomach, smiling slowly. "Soon." She told herself."Well, well, well." An irritating gruff voice erupted behind her and her eyes snapped open.She turned to the direction to see up to twenty men. They were all holding guns and pointing it at her.Fiona sighed. She thought that all her problems was over but of course she was wrong."What?" She asked angrily."What an attitude." One of them chuckled and she felt someone grab her from behind.She screamed, kicked straight in the groin and turned to look at him as he fell to the ground."Moron!

Immediately after the marriage, Fiona and her friends decided that they wanted to go hang out at a bar. Fiona's father wanted to stop them but he thought that thet knew what they were doing and that he should not get involved. He also told himself that he should stop trying to get involved in his daughter's life and stop trying to tell her what to do and what not to do. It just didn't sound okay for him to do that to her..He and his wife went back home after the wedding. Fiona's mother could not hike back her tears. She immediately started crying when they got home. "Why are you crying? Aren't you the one who always said tgat I was being too hard on her and Aiden?" He asked his wife. "Of course you were being too hard on them before this! It's just.....my daughter is finally married and I can't help but feel sad about it. I feel as if it was only a day ago when I held her
AUTHORDo you really think so little of me Fiona?" Aiden asked Fiona. He knows that she was saying all of this because of the pregnancy hormones and that she doesn't really mean it but he was hurt that she'd ever consider that he'd leave because she lost her shape after giving birth to her child. "I don't think that way of you at all. I know that you love me but people change right? What if I go out of shape and you decide that I am no longer what you want?! I think that I am going to lose my mind for real if you leave me....I can't handle that for the life of me" she told AidenAiden took her hand in his "I am just going to tell you this once Fiona so listen. You're pregnant with my child. You're putting your life on the hold to have my child. I am never going to leave you just because you lost your shape after having my child. And for goodness sake, even if you grow old and become ugly, I won't leave you. I am not with you because ot my looks. I am with you because I love you. The
FIONA'S POV"You know that I am not doing anything and that they are actually right. I don't want that at all. I want to do something to earn my keep. I know that I am pregnant but that doesn't mean that I am handicapped. I can still do something " I said. I don't like the way Aiden keeps treating me like I can't do anything for myself. I think that I am going to lose my mind if he keeps treating me like this for the duration of my pregnancy. I'd definitely lose my mind if this continues itself. "Who said that you're not doing anything by being here with me? Seeing your face everyday motivates me to work harder. And once I am motivated to work harder, it means that I can earn a lot of money for the company and those people talking will get paid on time. So you see, you being here is actually helping everyone. Do you see how much you're helping me out now?" Aiden asked me. I could not help but burst into laugher when I heard this. "You're impossible Aiden! I can't believe that you
AIDEN'S POVI entered my office after I was done with the meeting. I sighed. All of the people who are working for me are really stressing me out. They are supposed to do thier jobs but there's nothing that anyone of them can do right. They keep making mistakes on top of mistakes. They are all starting to get on my nerves. .I took off my tie as soon as I entered my office and lossened the first buttons of my shirt. I saw Fiona sleeping on the couch. I frowned. Isn't she uncomfortable?!I have told her many times that she doesn't need to come here for me and that she can just go back home and rest once the pregnancy gets too much for her and she wants to sleep. Why doesn't she ever listen at all ? "What are you doing here Fiona?" I asked as I tried to position her on the bed without waking her up as quietly as I could.I took a blanket and tried to cover her with it but she woke up anyway. "What are you doing here Fiona? Didn't I tell you that you can go back and sleep whenever y
Author's POVFew weeks later. Fiona groaned loudly as she entered into the fitting room for yet another time. This was the fifth....sixth? Honestly she's lost count of how many it was. Her mom and Eric's wife Esther were there with her. She went out to show her critiques who sat regally on the chair sipping lemonade. She eyed them dubiously and mouth "really??" With an arched eyebrow. They were only sitting there, enjoying a glass of lemonade and scrolling through the magazine while Fiona was made to endure the prickling and prodding of the stylist. "What do you think??" She asked without much enthusiasm. She felt beautiful but she wanted to hear from them. She gasped, stood up and walked towards her with beaming smiles on their faces."Oh my! You look adoring." Esther squealed into her hand and giggled excitedly. Fiona rolled my eyes as her mum and Esther passed a secret look at themselves. It was secretive if they were passing those looks in front of her. She almost facepalm
Author's POV"I suggest you avoid doing anything that could bring back those painful memories." He said to him quietly.Aidan nodded diligently, his eyes filled with a brimming happiness that seemed highly contagious. "She has been greatly traumatized and her brain is still having problem accepting the reality. Care and rest is all she needs right now. And do ensure that she eats a lot of food and makes she doesn't get upset" Rodriguez added calmly. Aidan had rushed out to call the doctor when the initial shock had wear off him. And thank goodness he did. "I congratulate you once again Mr Aiden." He bowed stiffly, before moving out. Since the doctor didn't want Fiona to listen in on his diagnostic, they were conversing in the corridor.The thought of Fiona going through the hardship of accepting the harsh reality was already hitting Aiden.... hard. A trickle pain of hers turned to an ocean of his own. If he could take her pain as his own, he would. Without thinking twice!He str
