Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Miscarriage
Ethan's POV..."Yes, I remembered," she said in response."That's it," I muttered. "No, you are lying tell me the truth," she said and backed her head away from my hands, depriving me of her warmth."Before I tell you, I need to know that you love me," I asked from her and she looked at me blankly. "Why you are asking this, you know I do love you," She said in response. I don't know how to tell her.I don't know how to tell her things and make her understand it, that we have lost our first child. My soul was telling to not tell her, she would feel pain. I don't want to give her trauma but I can't lie to her, keeping things away from her will be like lying to her. She deserve to know the truth, however this could also ruin our bond, the risk was too much but we need to face it together no matter what. "I wanna tell you that I love you, and won't ever leave you," I continued and she shook her head in approval. I clenched my hands strongly around her, holding her. "Yes, tell me," she
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Never leave me
Amber's POV..."Before I tell you, I need to know that you love me," He asked me and my eyes widened in surprise. Why would he ask this to me, don't he know I love him alot to go against my own family. Is he feels insecurity, if that the reason I love him alot to let him go, but my breath will go with him."Why you are asking this, you know I do love you," I said looking intensely at him. I have no issue to express my love to him uncountable times, but him asking me this question was taking me aback. However, the rest thing which he told me took me by surprise. "I wanna tell you that I love you, and won't ever leave you," he told me, and I shook my head in approval. Whatever it was, I will never leave him, nor he will, but him giving me assurance before telling me what was wrong was equally frightening for me because I know he won't use such strong words unless it was something serious. I don't know what was bothering him, because I can clearly see sadness in his eyes as he tried to
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) A second chance!
Amber's POV...At the middle of the night, my body suddenly got awaken and I started sweating hard. My body was feeling hot suddenly and I needed water, but there was no one, not even nurses around. My eyes were flickered open and I tried to move, but I couldn't. My lower region was paining badly and honestly I was afraid to check out where it was hurt. Honestly, when Ethan told me about the baby thing, the ground slipped from my feets. My heart was still paining with the loss. This could have been the most beautiful moment of my life but God didn't let me feel it.

So, I am abandoned. I tried to move my body but whince as a sharp pain felt on my spine, making my eyes filled with tears. I don't know what was much. The physical pain or the mental agony.

Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Nothing is excusable
Ethan's POV..."What is going on?" I said in my husky raucous voice. I was standing in the door where I can see Noah kneeling down beside Amber’s bed. I suddenly came here as I heard some voices coming from her room. I came to check, if she needed something or else she is in danger but here I didn’t expect her to talk with Noah, while he says 'thank you' to her. My body suddenly got alert and my brows were knitted in confusion as I don’t know what was really happening, but I expect Noah's presence the least. I saw Noah's body getting tensed hearing my voice and I already know there was something wrong with them. I watched Amber not meeting my glare. I know Amber loves him alot and can get easily influenced but I can't. I am a father, who lost his child and almost lost its mother too. "N-Nothing, Amber wanted water so I helped her," Noah uttered not matching my eyes. So I decided to make an entry inside. I walked in my slow strides and joined them, I may look like a third person be
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Cold and distant
Amber's POV... I stared at Ethan leaving me alone with Noah and I sighed in defeat. My heart was wrenching hearing his words, his words feel so cold and painful. He has lost his trust in everyone including me. I don’t want him to turn into stone, I want him to hold emotions and be happy like he was before. Seeing him sad pain me as well, losing my child pain me as well, after all I am the mother. It was my child, a part of my body. Ethan wasn't ready to listen to me, I understood that. "Sister; you shouldn't worry, he won't leave you, I know him," Noah said and I looked at my brother, and send a bitter smile to him. Only if he know that Ethan has already left. "I wish, but it is so late brother," I told to him and he smile to me. He stood on my feet, I didn’t observed but he was kneeling for a long time now, he was asking for forgiveness. I know Ethan was right, forgiveness is difficult and honestly, I haven't forgiven him fully but I can't let my brother go in darkness it will ru
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) No progress
Amber's POV...I wake up lazily in dishevelled state. I don’t know how long I have slept but I think quite a long, as sun has already set in the middle of the sky. It was bright outside. I sat up on the bed supported by headboard. I stared at sofa but it was empty, my lips thinned in a line finding it vacant. He went already, I thought to myself. The dimensions in our relationship has changed quite strong, that I know he will there whenever I need him but won't be available to talk. I want to bring old Ethan, who is loving, caring and talkative, only if he came chance. If he want time, that is fine too. "Ma'am, you wake up already," a middle aged lady said to me. She was wearing a long shirt and a blouse. My eyes narrowed in curiosity as I haven't seen her before, it was my first time seeing her in his house. "Who are you?" I asked her in confusion, as I was trying to think but couldn't get any answer. "Ma'am, I am Martha, sir told me to inform you, I am your maid," she said and I
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Eyes on him!

Martha made coffee for us while we were chattering. "Mom," Ethan screamed in surprise seeing his mother. Dua has raised Ethan beautifully. Both mother and son was equally good looking and charmer. They both got dimples. Dua has turned slight old but she don't seem to be old. She was very pretty for her age. He entered inside hastily and hugged his mother. I smiled seeing the duo, after so many days, I have seen him happy. He was smile and I can tell it was his genuine smile. I was starving to see him smile. If Dua's arrival make him happy. I was happy as well along with them. "When did you arrived?" He said out of excitement, while holding his mother. I stared at both of them. "I came when my daughter was sleeping, I didn’t expect this from you, Ethan, you should have told me all, which you didn't," she sa

Amber's POV..."He will take time, you continue," she said and I nodded my head in approval, I don’t want to disrespect her. She is a mother figure. We continued eating. Martha poured me soup and veggies and I smiled at her," It is delicious," I said to Dua and she smiled having her own. "That's because I made it with love," She said and giggled. I nodded my head enjoying my food, when Ethan joined us. He sat beside me, while taking his food."Why you aren't having chicken?" he said and I stared at my plate, which only have veggies and soup. "I was about it," I said and he shake his head, while serving me grilled chicken. It was after a while, since the accident, that I was feeling hungry and I wanted to eat. Dua shared some Ethan's childhood memories and his secrets, making him ashamed. "Did you really tell that," he said and I couldn't stop laughing seeing both mother and son fighting. "Yes, because you were a naughty child," she said and he has to roll his eyes on her words.

I never thought in my early twenties, that I would marry him, as I considered him as a dick, but believe me, now every moment I spent with him, I consider myself fortunate, that I marry a good man who love me, more than I love myself. Apparently, he is also the best dad, my children could have. God was generous enough to blessed me with gorgeous twins, when I thought that my womb might be barren. I didn't ask more from the Almighty, he has provided me the best fortune a woman could pray for. Our children, Brian and Sophie was more just a minute apart. Sophie is the eldest one; more like rebellious and bossy; she is a daddy's girl. While Brian was a shy and gentle baby, more like mummy's boy.

I, for one, was prepared to make it worthwhile for him to stay if he performed well while we were away; if it got him to move here."No thinking about work," He encircled me with his arms from behind."How do you know I'm thinking about work?" I questioned him."Because you worry too much, now," He said this while he released my dress's straps and allowed it to drop to the floor."Already?" He nodded when I asked.He questioned me, "Are you complain

This chapter contains mature content...Finally the wedding night folks...Enjoy! Amber's POV...I stared at him as the door to our hotel room closed and my mouth fell open."Be gentle with me tonight," I implored. On my wedding night, I was emotionally vulnerable—more exposed than I think I've ever been—and I wanted everything to be delicate. I feel so exposed and emotionally spent from the music and the feelings that my body isn't the only thing that's naked tonight.In a way that I couldn't quite put into words, my soul would be exposed to him in a way that I had never experienced before."Of course Angel," When I reached out to him, he extended his hand and took a step away from me, leading me closer to the chamber. When we entered, he stopped, took my hand, and softly drew me to him."I love you," Even though I already knew he did, I informed him that I needed him to know."I love you too," I shuddered as his hot breath fanned across my neck and his lips, like a whisper against
Beyond the Guilty Pleasure(18+) Imperfect wedding party!
Amber's POV...I felt and looked like a different person as soon as I walked back into the reception area. I felt lighter, like if the bottom half of me had disappeared, shedding like the weight of my misery.Standing in the center of the floor by himself, David was waiting for me. As I approached him, he smiled and extended his hand, which I accepted."Oh, why do you look so depressed? You have tears in your eyes. Please come see me right away. It's okay to shed tears. I've seen the dark side too, so let me see you through. Nothing you confess could make me love you less; I'll be there for you and promise not to let anyone hurt you when the night falls and you're at a loss for what to do."He was my second father when I was a child and my father-in-law now, so the song fit well. He has supported me throughout my life, having been there since I was fifteen.

One of the few friends Ethan kept from college, James was his roommate in college and he arrived just in time last night."Ready?" Looking over my shoulder, I noticed Noah standing there; he looked amazing in a tuxedo."No," He grinned as I laughed."Yes you are," he said. "You look beautiful Amber and I'm so happy for you and I'm so proud of you," He gently stroked my cheek before leaning in to kiss my forehead."Thanks," He grabbed for my flowers and flicked on the candlelight."You deserve to be happy," He took hold of my hand and interlaced his fingers with mine, refusing to let me take his arm to descend."Don't let go," Since he was all I had, it felt appropriate for him to be the one to give me away. When I told him,

Amber's PoV..."Amber, come on get up," When I felt a faint shake, I rolled away and moaned."No," I voiced my complaints."Woman get your ass up so we can get you ready so you can get married," After that, my covers were torn off, and I glared at Daya, realizing that I preferred Lily."Bitch," I muttered."You are the last one who needs a shower, as you are aware, so we waited until we were all in the shower before waking you up. When you go, breakfast will be waiting for you and you're mimosa," I took a brief shower after Daya shoved me in since I was famished.Food was one way they knew how to get me moving!My appetite has returned, which is a huge difference from when I lost all the weight and avoided food at all costs. The best part is that, should I become pregnant, Ethan won't make fun of me for eating anything I want.

We nearly neglected to provide our guests with favors and a unique present for our bridal party.Pearl necklaces were my choice because mine was and because I thought they were more sophisticated than diamond necklaces, which all the girls already had from Valentine's Day, Christmas, or an anniversary. I bought pearl necklaces for all the girls, including Ela and Bella, though Lily would take care of theirs until they were old enough to have them, either when they were sixteen or eighteen.Not that they're not wonderful presents; I

I am gonna skip Daya's wedding guys...The novel is extending too much. Amber's POV...Over the past few weeks, I've been very busy at work, spending time with Noah and Lily, Daya and Kein, and Ethan's mother. I've been feeling terrible about excluding her, so I'm making every effort to include her now. She claims to be understanding, and being such a kind person, she really does.It took me some time to realize how self-centered I was being; this isn't just my wedding; it's her son's as well, and I know she doesn't have a daughter. Rather of pushing her away, I should have used this opportunity to strengthen my relationship with her; I don't care whether she understands; I feel terrible about it.Though I wish I could sleep all weekend, I made time to go dress shopping with her in order to select a suitable dress for an early spring wedding. Although we weren't outside in the hottest of conditions, it was still a warm place inside.Ethan and I had lunch at the office and worked toget

Daya had believed she was going into labor, but it turned out to be a false alarm—thank goodness, since Kein was a complete mess. Hopefully that didn't happen again because he panicked entirely when she thought she was going into labor, despite the fact that he was usually the one who was cool under pressure.When Michael was just three weeks old, I awoke blearily to a call from Daya at two in the morning."It's time!" I recoiled as I withdrew the phone from my ear as she shouted."Are you sure this time?" Since they had only told her four days prior that she wouldn't be going into labor, I yawned without giving it
