Sofia pov~ **Beep.. beep.. beep**, that was the first sound I heard once I woke up. Uggh, what was that sound?,So disturbing. I groaned as I tired opening my eyes but failed due to it being heavy, I tried again and it worked, but my eyes shut as quickly as it opened due to the brightness in the room. I opened my eyes successfully this time as I adjusted to the bright light in the room. I recognized the beeping sound and the IV and it dawned on me that I was in the hospital. But why though; last thing I remember was blacking out, oohh I guess the girls brought me here, I wonder what happened to me. I was interrupted from my train of thought by Nora voice, I hadn't even realized that they were present in the room. “Sofia, you're finally awake”. Nora said a little loudly as the tone of her voice woke up a sleeping Whitney. “Nora, what happened? Why'd you wake me up?” Whitney said a little irritated as she rubbed her eyes. “Whitney, Sofia woke up”, Nora said excitedl
Sofia POV It was friday today, making it almost a week since I got discharged from the hospital. The whole week had been the most stressful week ever; my morning sickness continued and it was worse the day after I returned from hospital, I hadn't been able to perform my daily activities and go to college. I had lost weight cause I didn't really eat much, despite the doctor saying I should eat more and eat slowly, that shit doesn't work out though. All in all, the week had been depressing. The girls tried to lighten my day by watching movies, playing games though it helped a little but it's not the same. I lost appetite because food just became horrible and I couldn't sleep well. I still hadn't gotten over the fact that I was pregnant, I hadn't called my parents the whole week and when they tried calling I didn't answer because I didn't want to lie to them neither did I like keeping things from them. I hadn't even begun searching for my baby daddy; hell, I didn't even know
Matteo POV~ Since the night I spent with Sofia, I had been restless, mainly because of the way she left that morning before I even woke up. I had to admit she was good in bed and I was starting to feel something for her. I saw something in Sofia that I couldn't see in any other female but that feeling and thought flew out the window when I woke up the next day and she was gone. It was frustrating on how she made the night feel like a one night stand whereas I had other plans. I tried to clear her off my mind and focus on my work and other things for distraction but she was always getting in my head. I got tired of this feeling and explained everything to Santi and he advised that I searched for her. At first I thought the idea was dumb as fuck but when it started interfering in my work and I couldn't focus a day without thinking about her smile, her eyes, her laugh, her everything infact! I knew I had to do something, anything to overcome this new feeling, even if the thing
Sofia pov~ I woke up to the bright sun rays from the open windows, my eyes Immediately closed due to reflex. I opened my eyes again as I adjusted to the brightness in the room. I tried to stretch but found out I'm hooked to different hospital machines. The only sound in the room was the sound of my regular heartbeat. I realized I was at the hospital, but how did I get here and who brought me here. I looked around the room to find out that I wasn't the only person in the room. I had company, two people to be precise. Oh did something happen to me, is that why the girls brought me here? Or did something happen to my baby. At the thought of that, I gasp loudly as tears gathered in my eyes. Whitney and Nora, the two people in the room who were sleeping on the uncomfortable couch woke up with a jolt due to my gasp. “Hey, Sofia what's wrong? Are you okay? Are you in pain? Is something wrong?" Nora questioned me soothingly with panic in her voice as she checked to see if
Matteo POV~ After seeing Sofia in the state she was in, I couldn't think straight anymore. I left the hospital in a rush and went back to my house. When I got home, I headed straight to my office. I didn't want any disturbance, I poured myself a cup of billionaire vodka. I emptied the glass as I thought back to everything that happened in less than 24 hours. When I went to Sofia's house, my intention was to see her one last time and erase the unwanted feeling that was starting to form then head back to italy, my permanent resident. I didn't expect to find out about her pregnancy or that she was carrying twins that are possibly mine. If the children were mine, I didn't know what I was going to do because I didn't plan on having kids till the next 5 years or maybe even more. Fuck! What was I going to do about the situation. I came to America for work only, I only planned on staying here for three weeks then head back to italy after the job was done and successful. I
Sofia pov~ When we returned from the hospital, I took a well needed nap. I woke up and went downstairs for breakfast, its was 11:00am and the girls had already gone to college. I was home alone today, again and what I needed to do was rest. I didn't need anything stressful in my current state. According to my doctor, she said that I was still in my first trimester and there was a high risk of miscarriage so I needed to be careful and avoid strenuous activities. I went to the kitchen and made my breakfast, dry toast and frozen fruit juice. I was advised to eat these, they helped prevent nausea and vomiting. After eating, I showered and came back downstairs to watch a movie because I was bored. As soon as the movie started, there was a knock on the door. I sighed before standing from the couch to get the door. When I got to the door, I froze; what if it was Matteo, I mean this was what happened the last time. I couldn't be admitted twice in just two days. I didn't nee
Matteo POV~ Why did she always have to provoke me? Damn. I knew when I went to her house she wasn't just going to come with me but I didn't plan on taking her out of her home unconscious although that was the only way. I took her unconscious body in my arm and went to my car. I drove out of there immediately because the drug was only going to last for at least 2 hours and the drive to my house was 1hr 40 mins drive. I didn't want her waking up in the car and causing a scene. I got to the house in time and took her straight to my bedroom because I knew she would wake up any moment now. I laid her on the bed and tucked her in, I left the room after some minutes and locked the door ordering some guards to guide her room incase she woke up and I wasn't there to calm her down. I went straight to the kitchen area and ordered some maids to prepare something for her when she woke up.After giving instructions, I went to my office to calm my head. I removed my tux and laid m
SOFIA POV~ I woke up with a sudden jolt due to the urge to throw up, I ran across this foreign room looking for a bathroom. I finally found it and emptied all the content in my stomach. After throwing up, I felt weak maybe it was because I hadn't eaten anything since yesterday's breakfast. I managed to stand up from the cold tiles, washed my face and brushed my teeth. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and the person staring back at me looked exhausted and sick. I left the bathroom and went back to bed only then did I look at the decor of the room. The room was large, I meant extremely large maybe five times the size of my bedroom at home. It was warm and the bed alone was so welcoming that I had the urge to go back to bed. My moment of admiring this king like bedroom was interrupted when someone came in. The last person I wanted to see walked in, in his handsome glory. Matteo stared at me with a smirk on his face considering the fact that he saw me taking in the

MATTEO POV~ Today made it exactly a month since the incident and the birth of my daughter. I still hadn't figured out a name yet, I was secretly hoping Sofia would wake up anytime soon so we could name her together. Today my little angel would be out of the NICU and I would be able to hold her for the first time. I stood outside the children's unit as I watched the doctors and nurses detach the machines from her. I couldn't wait to lift her tiny body in my hand, I wished Sofia was here with me so we could cradle our little baby together. Mariella asked to come with me but I refused, I still hadn't come to terms with the situation and I didn't want to create more distance between us. I was brought back from my train of thought when one of the nurses gently placed my baby girl in my arm. I smiled appreciatively at the nurse and held my baby protectively. She squirmed in my arm and open her eyes as she stared at me. I was blessed with the sight when I stay
