Beyond The Time Chapter 85- Alina’s POV
I was still reeling from the morning’s surprises when the driver appeared again in the late afternoon, this time with a note from Anton. “Evening plans are set. Be ready in an hour. I can’t wait to see you.” My heart skipped a beat as I smiled, knowing he was up to something even more special. I just had to fix my make up a little as I was already dressed up keeping it simple yet elegant, with the same blue dress and the jewelry he had gifted me. When the driver came to escort me, I was filled with anticipation, butterflies in my stomach. We drove for a while before pulling up to one of Anton’s restaurants, but something felt different. I stepped out of the car, and the driver walked me inside. The lights were dimmed, candles flickered on each table, but there was no one else there. No bustling servers, no other patrons. The entire restaurant was reserved for us. As I entered, my eyes locked onto Anton standing near the window, gazing out into the sunset. His tailored suit fit h
Beyond The Time Chapter 86- Alina’s POV
I woke up with a heaviness in my stomach, the kind that made me feel like something was churning inside me. At first, I brushed it off—maybe it was the food from last night. I must have eaten too much. I sat up slowly, the world spinning slightly as dizziness hit me. I steadied myself with a hand on the edge of the bed, trying to shake it off. I have to be quiet. Otherwise, Anton will wake up. "Maybe I need water," I muttered to myself. But when I stood, the nausea swelled. Before I could make sense of it, I rushed to the bathroom, barely making it in time before throwing up. Clutching the sink, I stared at my reflection, beads of sweat forming on my forehead. What’s going on? My thoughts raced, but no clear answer came. I rinsed my mouth, thinking it was probably just a bug. But the feeling didn’t pass. After a moment of standing still, I tried to walk back to bed, but halfway there, the wave hit again. My stomach twisted violently, and I found myself hunched over, vomiting a
Beyond The Time Chapter 87- Anton’s POV
I stirred from sleep, stretching out my hand, expecting to feel the soft warmth of Alina next to me. But my hand touched only cool sheets. My eyes fluttered open, and I frowned, blinking for a while. The space beside me was empty, the covers thrown back as if she had left in a hurry. "Alina?" I called out softly, my voice still thick with sleep. No answer. I sat up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes, and glanced around the room. Maybe she was in the bathroom. But after a few moments, I realized there was no sound of running water or movement. My stomach clenched with unease as I swung my legs off the bed and stood up ti check in bathroom. "Alina?" I called again, louder this time. Still nothing. I walked out of the bedroom and began searching the villa. My heart started to race a little, worry creeping into my chest. It wasn't like her to disappear without saying something. I passed through the living room, the kitchen, and even checked the outdoor seating area where she sometime
Beyond The Time Chapter 88- Anton’s POV
I knelt in front of Alina, my hands hovering over her knees, unsure whether to pull her into my arms or wait for her to speak. Her sobs had subsided, but the silence between us was killing me. "Alina, please talk to me," I said softly, my voice barely above a whisper. I could feel my heart thudding in my chest, an uneasy rhythm of concern. I hated seeing her like this, so fragile and broken. She finally lifted her head, her red-rimmed eyes meeting mine. There was something in her gaze that I couldn’t quite read—fear, sorrow, and something else that sent a shiver down my spine. “I—" she started, her voice trembling. She wiped at her face, trying to gather herself, but her hands were shaking so much that it only made her look more vulnerable. "I don’t know how to say this." I sat back on my heels, waiting, my heart almost in my throat. I had no idea what was coming, but whatever it was, it was tearing her apart. "Alina, you can tell me anything. Whatever it is, we’ll get throug
Beyond The Time Chapter 89- Alina’s POV
Ever since I shared the news with Anton, he has been pampering me a lot. Because of the dynamics of the other future, we are being too cautious about this baby. Both of us decided that we would be working from home. Natalie and Zack are helping us with workload. I am so excited that my baby is back again. But I'm so scared to lose this little one again. I was a terrible mother in other future, I couldn’t protect my baby. "That look on your face clearly indicates that you are worried about the other future again." Anton said, looking at me with a worried expression. I placed my head on his shoulder. "I can’t help it, baby." I admitted. "Alina, you can't always think about it because it's stressing you out. Stress is not good for the baby. And what will the little one think about me? I am not even taking good care of his mother. I can't make her happy." Anton said to me, and I feel like he is right. Stressing is not healthy for me and my baby. "Okay, I'm sorry to baby and baby's
Beyond The Time Chapter 90- Alina’s POV
“Anton, hurry up! We’re going to be late for the appointment,” I called out, adjusting my scarf while pacing near the door. The thought of seeing our baby today had me buzzing with excitement, and I couldn’t help but smile.Anton walked over, keys jingling in his hand, a wide grin spread across his face. “I’m coming, I’m coming! You act like I’m the one making us late, but I saw you taking forever to decide which shoes to wear.”I rolled my eyes, giving him a playful nudge. “Well, I have to look good for the little one, don’t I?”He chuckled and wrapped an arm around my waist as we headed out to the car. “Trust me, you could wear anything, and you’d still be glowing. I think it’s the ‘future mom’ thing.”I smiled at his words but felt the nerves settle in again as the reality of the doctor’s visit weighed on me. It wasn’t just a regular checkup—it was the first time we’d see our baby. The butterflies were a mix of excitement and anxiousness. Anton must have sensed my unease because h
Beyond The Time Chapter 91- Alina’s POV
“Ugh, I can’t find anything to wear!” I exclaimed, standing in front of my closet, arms crossed and frustration bubbling inside me. My reflection in the mirror showed a version of myself I was still trying to get used to. My belly had grown significantly over the past few months, and while I loved what it represented, I felt increasingly self-conscious about my appearance.“Alina, are you okay?” Anton’s voice came from behind me, and I turned to see him leaning against the doorframe, concern etched on his face.“Not really. I can’t fit into any of my clothes. Everything looks so… unflattering,” I admitted, glancing back at my closet, filled with clothes I could no longer wear.He walked over, wrapping his arms around my waist from behind. “You look beautiful, you know that?”I leaned back into him, resting my head against his shoulder, but the compliment didn’t ease my insecurities. “I don’t feel beautiful. I feel… big. I miss my old clothes.”Anton turned me around to face him, his

“Are you sure everything’s ready?” I asked for the third time, pacing around the living room as I glanced nervously at the decorations. Soft blue and white streamers hung from the ceiling, and balloons floated around, adding a cheerful vibe to the intimate setup. The baby shower and gender reveal weren’t supposed to be huge events—just close family and friends. But even with a smaller crowd, I couldn’t help feeling nervous “Relax, Alina. Everything looks perfect. Stop walking and sit at a place,” Anton said, walking over to pull me into a gentle embrace. “Besides, it’s not about perfection. It’s about celebrating you and our little one.” I sighed, leaning against him for support. “I know, I just… I want today to be special.” “And it will be.” He pressed a kiss to my forehead. “Now, stop stressing. Zack and Jason are already here, helping with the last-minute details. Barbara, Francis, and Lucy have the food handled, and everyone else will be here soon.” I nodded, taking a deep

Beyond The Time Epilog
The villa was a picture-perfect scene of Christmas cheer. Twinkling lights adorned the exterior, casting a warm glow over the snow-dusted garden, while a large Christmas tree stood proudly in the living room, its ornaments glinting in the soft light. The scent of fresh pine and cinnamon filled the air, mingling with the laughter and chatter of friends and family. Alina held her one-month-old daughter close, cradling the tiny bundle in her arms as guests arrived. She smiled, watching as Linton and Gabriel practically hovered around her, peering down at the baby with wide-eyed wonder. “Is she really my sister?Sometimes it feels like a dream mommy.” Linton asked for the tenth time, his voice filled with awe. Alina chuckled softly. “Yes, sweetheart. She’s really your sister. You got exactly what you asked Santa for last Christmas.” Linton beamed, reaching out a cautious hand to touch his sister’s tiny fingers. “Hi, baby sister,” he whispered. “ I’ll always protect you.” Gabriel,

The doorbell rang, and Alina smiled, knowing exactly who it was. A few moments later, Linton’s excited voice echoed through the hall as he raced toward the door to greet his best friend, Gabriel. “Gabriel!” Linton yelled, throwing the door open and giving his friend a high-five. Gabriel grinned as he stepped inside, holding a little gift bag in his hand. “Hey, Linton! Hi, Aunt Alina!” Gabriel greeted, his eyes wide with excitement as he approached her. “How’s the baby?” Alina chuckled, patting her belly. “Getting bigger every day, Gabriel. And she’s quite active today.” Linton immediately perched himself beside his mom, his eyes sparkling with interest. “Can I talk to her again, Mommy?” he asked with a shy smile. “Of course, sweetheart.” She smoothed down her shirt and leaned back so the boys could get closer. Gabriel scooted onto the couch beside Alina, looking both curious and excited. He handed her the little gift bag, inside of which was a small stuffed bunny with floppy ea

Alina rested on the couch, a blanket draped over her legs and her hand resting on her rounded belly. At seven months pregnant, her baby bump was unmistakable, and it was a joy to see how much it had become a part of the family’s daily life. From Anton’s frequent hand resting over her belly to Linton’s fascination with “talking” to his baby sibling, the whole house seemed to radiate warmth and anticipation. Linton, bursting with excitement, had clambered up onto the couch beside her, his small hands gingerly placed over her belly as if holding a fragile treasure. He leaned in close, his expression serious as he started whispering to the baby. “Hi, baby sis,” Linton said, his voice soft but filled with excitement. “It’s me, Linton, your big brother! I can’t wait to meet you, and I’m gonna teach you everything I know. We’re gonna play so many games, and I’ll teach you how to draw dinosaurs and superheroes. And… and I’ll share my toys, too!” Alina chuckled, resting her hand over his.
Beyond The Time Chapter 110- Author's POV
Alina gently ruffled Linton’s hair, nudging him awake. Anton was already up, sipping his coffee in the kitchen, as she whispered to their son, "Wake up, Linton. I have a surprise for you today." Linton’s eyes fluttered open, and he rubbed them with his small fists, his face brightening instantly at the word “surprise.” “A surprise? Where are we going, Mommy?” Alina smiled. “You’ll see soon enough. Go get dressed, and we’ll be on our way.” As Linton scrambled out of bed and rushed to get ready, Alina made her way to the kitchen. She kissed Anton on the cheek, feeling a surge of excitement about the secret she was about to share. She had been working on a special painting for weeks, pouring her heart into every brushstroke, and today, she would finally reveal it. “Where are we off to this morning?” Anton asked, raising an eyebrow with curiosity as he sipped his coffee. “Just a little outing to the gallery. I have something special to show you both,” Alina replied, her eyes twin
Beyond The Time Chapter 109- Author's POV
Alina and Anton pulled into the driveway of David and Isabella’s home. Their hearts were light, filled with the warmth of their recent trip to Paris and the excitement of reuniting with their little one. As they stepped out of the car, Linton’s energy was palpable; he bounced on his feet, his eyes sparkling with anticipation as he saw his parents getting down the car. "Mom-dad I missed you so much." Linton hugged their legs. Anton picked him up in his arms. “Are we ready to see Gabriel?” Anton asked, ruffling Linton’s hair. “Yes! I want to show him the new toys you brought!” Linton exclaimed, practically dragging his parents toward the front door. Alina chuckled at her son’s enthusiasm. “Hold on, buddy. Let’s not rush too much. We’ve got to make sure we greet everyone first.” They rang the doorbell, and moments later, David swung the door open, a wide grin lighting up his face. “Welcome back, you guys! We missed you! Literally ever since Linton got to know you are coming he h

Steam filled the bathroom, the warm mist clinging to the glass walls of the shower as water falling softly. Alina leaned against the cool tiles, her body relaxing under the hot spray. She felt a gentle touch at her waist, and without opening her eyes, she knew it was Anton. "Mind if I join you?" his deep voice rumbled softly in her ear, a smile evident in his tone. Alina smiled and turned slightly, glancing over her shoulder. "Of course sweetheart. You never need permission." Anton chuckled, stepping closer, his hands slowly trailing up her arms, pulling her back against his chest. The heat of his body mixed with the warmth of the water, enveloping her in comfort and safety. "I thought I’d be polite today so I was asking for permission," he teased, his lips brushing against the side of her neck, sending a shiver down her spine. Alina leaned her head back, resting it against his shoulder. "You? Polite?" she teased back, the warmth of his breath tickling her skin. "Hey, I c
Beyond The Time Chapter 107- Author's POV
David's house was alive with the sounds of giggles and shuffling papers as Linton and Gabriel sat side by side at the large wooden dining table, their books spread out before them. “Got it!” Gabriel declared triumphantly, holding up his math workbook. Linton, still scribbling away on his own page, glanced at him with a smirk. “You think you’re fast, huh? Let me check that.” He leaned over, playfully scrutinizing Gabriel’s work. “Hmm... looks right, but I bet I can finish mine faster.” “Oh, it’s on!” Gabriel grinned, and they both dove back into their homework with renewed energy. Isabella stood at the kitchen counter, watching the boys with a fond smile. She was whipping up pancake batter for their afternoon snack, the aroma of freshly made batter already filling the air. The kitchen was warm and inviting. She glanced over her shoulder at David, who was reading on the couch, occasionally glancing up to chuckle at the boys' competitive banter. “I love how determined they are,

The next day, Paris greeted us with a warm breeze and a clear blue sky.Anton was already up, sipping on his coffee by the window as he admired the view. I walked over to him, still in my pajamas, and leaned against his arm, taking in the sight of the Eiffel Tower standing tall in the distance. “We’re really doing this, huh?” I asked, smiling as I looked up at him. Anton grinned, setting his cup down on the table. “Absolutely. Are you ready for a day of cliches and tourist photos?” I laughed, nodding. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.” An hour later, we were standing at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, and despite the crowds around us, I couldn’t help but feel the excitement bubbling up inside. Anton had his camera ready, capturing moments before we even started climbing. Every few steps, he’d stop, turn to me with that teasing smile, and snap a picture—of me laughing, of us together, of the view. "Okay, one more,” Anton said, holding up his phone, getting us both into the fram
Beyond The Time Chapter 105- Alina’s POV
Anton’s hand brushed softly against the small of my back as we entered the suite, his touch lingering just a little longer than necessary. I looked around, taking in the breathtaking view from the floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the city of Paris. The Eiffel Tower sparkled in the distance. Everything about this place felt perfect—luxurious and romantic. The door clicked shut behind us, and the sound echoed in the quiet, intimate space. I placed my purse on the plush chair near the window and took a deep breath, letting the atmosphere of the city sink in. “We’re really here,” I said softly, more to myself than to Anton. Anton chuckled behind me, his arms sliding around my waist. “We are. No distractions. No meetings. Just you, me, and Paris.” I leaned back against him, closing my eyes and enjoying the warmth of his embrace. For the first time in what felt like forever, we had no obligations pulling us in different directions. Just us. I turned in his arms, looking up a
