Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Like I said earlier, Kyle had no idea what was coming his way. We arrived at his mansion only to see Alora seated by his porch. The look on his face was priceless. Alora and I rained very hard on him and he had no choice but to reconsider his decision so he here we are, in Alora’s car, driving over to Asher’s house. She even brought a bowl full of fruit salad which I am devouring right now.
I love Alora so much that I can kill for her. She is the twin sister I do not have.
“That went easier than I had imagined”
“No one can stand an argument with us darling. Queen of Sass and Queen of drama, we make an outstanding duo”
“Definitely!”
“By the way, while you were busy doing whatever it is you were doing, Asher made sure to carry out his legal duties”
“Like?” I ask with uncertainty.
“He already filed a restraining order against Seven and made sure he was notified

ACE’S POVAfter eating diner, I go straight to my bedroom where I tiredly slump in my bed. I’m not going to do any work tonight. I’m just going to have a very good rest so I can calm my nerves. Today has been quite nerve wrecking from me. First, my mother caused a scandal on the internet, then came Asher who wouldn’t let me talk to Luna, Kyle didn’t make things better when he gave me an anonymous phone call. I almost fainted when he mentioned the fact that his father planned on sending Luna out of the country with my unborn child. I would go crazy if that happens.Mother didn’t make things better for me when she kept insisting that she has the right to make decisions for me.The most important thing is that I got the issue resolved. Luna’s name has been cleared so her father won’t have to send her away.I still have her and my unborn here with me.“Thinking about Luna?”A voice asks

LUNA’S POVIt’s almost ten pm and I’m walking over to Asher’s bedroom so we could talk. I want to thank him for everything he did for me today. You have to idea how embarrassed I am to go and face him right now.When Alora and I arrived, everything was as she had explained. A room had been prepared for me and it contained all my stuff in the appropriate positions. She even showed me the tampons Asher had given to her and indeed they were mine. Through out dinner I couldn’t meet his gaze and didn’t utter a word to him.Asher being Asher didn’t utter a word to me either.No matter what, I have to thank him and that’s why I am headed for his bedroom right now. When I arrive at the door, I heave out a heavy breath and knock and in no time the door is opened but a very shirtless Asher.“Oh my God Asher” I lament as close my eyes and turn my face away “I’m so sorry, I’ll &helli

LUNA’S POVI walk into the diner and I’m not surprised at all to see Asher setting the table for breakfast. Most at times he prepares my breakfast whenever I sleep over. Asher is an excellent cook.He has on a pair of well ironed black trousers and a white shirt which has been properly tucked into the trousers. The sleeves of his shirt have been neatly rolled up to his elbow exposing the very expensive Rolex wrist watch on his left hand. His jet black hair has been well combed and today, jelled backwards and I take some time to examine his perfect facial features. He has got a well a chiseled jawline and high cheek bones. His brown eyes are deep and charming and his pink full lips aren’t making things any better. They are dangerously succulent.Asher is such a fine man and I am very proud of the fact that he is in love with me.“You do know that staring is rude right?” He asks not even sparing me a glance. I shamefully tear m

As speculated, Ace swallows his enormous pride(I’m sorry Ace) and comes over to Asher’s house. We are both seated in the living room and he has been staring at me for close to fifteen minutes now without uttering a word.I wonder what is running on his mind. Judging from his facial expression, it cannot be something nice. He looks pissed off.“I thought you said you were going to move in with Kyle”“Ace I already answered that question.”“I want to hear you say it again”“Change of plans. Alora suggested something better”“Who is Alora?” He asks with a creased brow.“My all time best friend. She is Asher’s little sister and we all live here together”“Let me get this straight. You live here with Asher and his younger sister who happens to be your best friend”“Exactly, so you have nothing to be worried about. I&rsq

I am beyond shocked to wake up and find myself lying on my bed. I don’t remember coming in here myself, I fell asleep while cuddled up in Ace’s arms. He can’t be the one who brought me in here because he doesn’t know my bedroom. This house is quite large, he would never have figured it out.I’m loosing my mind right now. I need to find answers. I pick up my cell phone from the night stand and step down from my bed. I walk out of the bedroom ignoring the fact that I might be looking like a scarecrow because I just woke up from sleep. I walk through the corroder which has got bedrooms side by side and it leads my to the living room on the second floor there I find Alora watching TV with a bowl of popcorn in her hand.I'm glad she's here, I won't have to be all alone anymore.“Please don't tell me I sleep walked to my bedroom” I say as I lazily slump on the couch by her side and take a handful of popcorn from the bowl

She doesn’t want to get hurt”“So what are you going to do?”“The wedding is in five months, that’s enough time for me to figure out what to do”“Why do I feel like you have plans of calling off that wedding” He asks looking at me queerly.I smile.“The universe has its way of making things fall in place. Let’s just wait and see”“This is not going to end well”“Oh, it will and you will be impressed” I say with a naughty smirk.The saying “uneasy is the head that carries the crown” is indeed the truth. My head is spinning like a roller coaster, this dilemma I currently find

LUNA’S POVSo, as if showing up at Asher's house unannounced wasn’t enough, Kyle just decided to ruin my evening by telling me that someone else took my place at the company. He’s all about how he doesn’t want me stressing up myself and I don’t know how many times I have to tell him that I’m pregnant not dying. This over protective attitude of his is pissing me off.“Kyle please try to reconsider, I can’t just stay at home doing nothing for nine whole months, I will die of boredom” I plead.“You will be fine Luna, stop all this exaggeration”“Kyle” I call pouting like a five year old but the look he has on makes me understand that there is no going back on this decision of his.Ugh!I hate him sometimes.Suddenly, I hear footsteps approaching the living room and I heave out a heavy sigh of relief when I see Asher walk into the living room, I rush over to him

The CEO’S wrath is the last thing I want to incur right now”“Allow me”The moment I hear Asher’s voice, my heart starts beating abnormally again. That man would’ve kissed me if Alora had not stormed in and I would have let him do it because he is the man I choose.My heart beats for Ace, I love him immensely but my mind knows better than to think that we can ever have a future together. He is going to marry someone else, that’s why I want to try as much as possible to deviate these feelings I have for him to Asher.I know that’s what’s best for me.“Luna” He calls with his usual calm tone. “I am not trying to scare you, bu
