Brianna's POV

I don't know why am having such feelings but I want it to stop. I want it to fuçking leave me the h*ll alone.

My hormones are getting the best of me. I cry when it's not needed.

Honestly am feeling cheated here. Why does he always get what he wants from me and when I ask him for something he'll just give a lame excuse.

I'm tired of sitting around the house. I want to work and I'm fucking starting tomorrow.

"Anna is this about your request toady?"he questioned with this overly concerned look on his face

"Not only that. I want to work but first I need Dee back. Come back to your sense Dee stop making me cry all the time"I cried more and he pulled me into a hug.

Yeah! This is what I want. Just say yes and you'll have me to yourself. I spoke inwardly

"Anna, if you want to work then I won't stop you but you'll have to report to me the moment you start feeling stressed. You won't work everyday maybe three times in a week."

    I felt so good, really good as I talked to her, she has listening ears and also asked me a lot of questions.We sat on the bench and watched the water fall continuously from the fountain."Where is your mom?" She asked so suddenly."She's dead. She died of cancer." I explained."I'm sorry about that?""It's okay." I pulled her closer to me and let her head lay on my chest, she had this fragrance and I loved it, I loved our position."Brianna!" I called."Hmmm!""_if... What if we don't end up patting ways?" I asked and she raised her head up."That's not possible, our contract say we leave each other after a year" she replied."But what if love happens""I don't know...

She probably thinks I'm lying even though I don't believe that I've been married to him and I'm expecting his child.“I'm telling you the truth Serena, I'm his wife, we got married three months ago in America.“ I explained to her She still stared at me in disbelief.I took my phone from my bag, my phone's wallpaper was a picture of I and Diego, he had me wrapped in his hand and placed a kiss on my cheek,we took the picture so we could show granny that things were fine with us “Anyone can photoshop this.“ She said,I took my phone from her and searched for the picture of our marriage certificate. When I saw it, I handed my phone to her. “Anyone can still make this.“ She said and I frowned what would it take for her to believe that I'm his wife. And why the hell was she she not believing it?“Why aren't you believing anything I say?“ I asked her.She twitched her lips. “Well that's because I know the man I've been

    •~~~~~~•Diego's POV.The house was really quiet as I walked in. I felt really exhausted as I had to finish so many things before leaving. All I wanted to do was eat then bury my head deep inside my pillow.I walked towards the stairs to have a change of clothes then eat. Just as I walked through the first stair, I noticed a bit of change with the glass door which was almost invisible. I had the wall changed to a mirror wall because I didn't want anyone prying into my life.I climbed down the stairs and walked towards the second stairs.No one took the second stairs because it was at the far end of the house and we only stayed at the left wing of the mansion since the house was so big. So there's no need to stress yourself to go through it. And every single person knows they aren't allowed to use those stairs except Anna. I walked slowly towards the stairs, I pushed the door which was right before the stairs opened and met her there, she had a hook in her hand.I felt angry that she

Valerie explained to her, in a very expensive Italian accent."Sure " I watched keenly. I couldn't take my eyes from the small bump on Anna's tummy.Come to think of it, Anna doesn't act like a pregnant woman, she's always so energetic and has lots of appetite.

    Brianna's POV.Are you out of your god damn mind? What is wrong with you? He was pissed at me.“Why would you say that?“ He asked holding me.“Well because Tara is the woman you love. I'm just your contract bride…” I was still speaking when he crashed his lips on mine. He kissed my lips for some seconds tugging on it and slightly bitting me.“All this shouldn't matter to you Anna. It's you I'm married to right now and not Tara” he brushes his lip against my lower lip.“Even if it happens that Romeo is my son, I would still love the child we birth, nothing is going to change.“It was soothing, but for some reason, this wasn't what I wanted to hear from him.He saw the look on my face and I'm sure he noticed I wasn't alright, I wasn't a bit satisfied with his answer.I still wasn't okay and my face folded in worry and sadness."Anna, you don't have to feel this way, you are the one carrying my baby and it is not Tara, it is you with me right now and you are the one I will choose agai

    We gently pulled out of the hug. I noticed people were starring at us and I couldn't help but stare at her lips. I took my head down and placed my lips on hers, grabbed her waist firmly and she kissed me back. She tugged on my lips and I slowly sucked her lips, it was the must passionate kiss we've shared. Pulling out she laughed. "You have a lot of explanation to do, so let's go to my room" she said and began pulling me towards the direction. ~~~~~~~ "I know it's a pretty personal matter but do you mind sharing?" She asked d and I licked my lower lips. It's pretty personal but if she's going to be mine, she has to know sooner or later. "I really do not like talking about it because it only reminds me of the pain my little girl faced and reminds me that I wasn't a good father and will never be. "I don't think you are. I see the way you take care of me right now that I'm with a child" she said and I noticed the little bump on her stomach. "Tara and I go way back, we were best fr

    Diego's POVThe next morning came really slow, I practically called out Anna's name throughout the night and wished she was fine.I came out of the bathroom with a towel hanging on my waist, the room was super cold and lonely. I fear I've gotten so used to Anna being around that I do not want her to leave again, and I don't want to be alone.My phone rang out loud and I rushed almost stumbling to pick it because who knows it may be Anna.I looked at the name and it wasn't Anna. I frowned slowly, taking the phone to my ear."Speak fast.""Sir, I was able to locate her at the early hours of the morning." He stated and I smiled."Send me the address now." I stated. In one go I took the phone of my ear and began dressing hastily.Quietly wore my pants and a white V neck shirt. I combed my hair with my hand and took my car key from the table.Climbing down the stairs, my eyes met with Hilda as she arranged the dinning."Please make breakfast for Anna, I'm going to get her" The Joy in my he

    Diego's POV I ruffled my hair, and shot my eyes tight the moment he uttered those words to me. I tried to be calm but it wasn't working. I hit the steering wheel so hard that my hand began hurting. How would I find someone that doesn't want me to find her? She's good at this. I guess she's used to running away because she left no trace of how I could find her. Even my cards, she didn't use my cards, she didn't use her phone, it's switched off. Why would Anna do this? The truth was clear, I was in more pain than I've ever been. The thought of losing her was making my head go haywire. I think she wanted to be on her own and would be back soon. I hope so because if she doesn't come back tomorrow, I'll call the cops and apply for a missing person. I rolled my eyes and tighten my fist on the wheel, I reversed, heading back home. When I got home, I packed my car and walked back in. Just then Hilda came out to meet me. "Have you seen her?" Her eyes showed so much concern. I sho

    Brianna's POV I left the house before he would return so he would have time alone to speak to Tara, because they both needed it. If they really want Amelia to rest peacefully, the blame on each other should be lifted up. I also wanted to tell Serena about where I was going to but I was scared she would end up telling Diego about it and he would find me so easily. We all needed time I wouldn't blame Diego for hiding things from me, he has all right, it's his secret and has nothing to do with me. Guess I was super nosy. I haven't talked about my Family with him, I barely talk about myself because I'm keeping it a secret and he also did. I stared at the mirror in front of me, I looked really stressed and I was worn out, driving round the city was a very big stress. When I left Tara, giving her an excuse, I took a cab down to a hotel I had seen while I was going to get Tara. The hotel looks nice and isn't that expensive. I paid with my own money and not with the card Diego had give
