Reina’s POV

I was still, stunned and at the same time broken because this wasn't what I was expecting him to say, fine, I knew that I should have thought about this probability, but there was none and now this.

“ You didn't mean that, did you? I am pregnant! With your child. Not it. Our child isn't an it. It is human and you know that”

“ Reina…” he tried to touch me, but I wasn't having any of that, I didn't want him to touch me. It doesn't boil down with me. Whatever it was that he was trying to do just didn't boil down with me.

All the high expectations that I had all crumbled to the ground before my very eyes, I guess that I had thought too highly of how it was going to be and now, I was going to have regrets.

A bump got stuck in my throat and I couldn't push it down, no matter how hard it was that I tried to. It just wouldn't bulge, why does it have to stay stuck so well? What happened to it going down and now...

    Richard's POVEverything had turned blurry when I stomped out and Reina was gone, fuck it. I didn't know where exactly to start from or where exactly she might be because damn it I just couldn't breathe. Those minutes when I was in there thinking so hard, I had come to various conclusions, most of which ended up in the fact that it was none of her fault. I was the freaking one who was at fault. I had knocked her up and demanded that she get rid of it, what exactly does that make me?I was as messed up as any other guy out there who would do that to their partner. What happened to using protection? Why had I messed up and still went raw, even when I knew that I didn't want her to end up pregnant? Huh? Wasn't I at fault? Realization had dawned on me, and it had come down like everything I had never wanted to try out. I didn't know why, but when I stepped out of the room, all that I had intended to do was make sure that she knew we were together. Through every phase of her pregnancy.

    Reina's POV “ Stop that, you should let your mother rest” Richard chided Kelvin as he held me away from where I was resting gently on. I would have shouted at him for being tough, but I couldn't bring myself to, not after the relapse I had a few months back. Everyone had panicked, everyone had kept praying and hoping that I was fine and even Richard had almost broken down but all of that had turned out fine when I got better. A doctor had been flown in from India who was said to be one of the best and was kept around. It had been challenging to sort him out, but he was a freshman who was a gynecologist, and he had been by my side through it all. It was said that while he was in school, he had been known as the best graduating one of his set, and immediately he was set to be inducted, Richard had combed everywhere searching for him. He had offered a fair deal, a hospital and a considerable sum of money that would set him for life just if he could dedicate a year or two to making s

    Nina’s POV “ Mrs. Ryan’’ I waited with anticipation at what the doctor was going to say, my heart flipped when she held my hands enclosing it with hers. “ You are finally pregnant, with twins” The air stilled around me as the bag I was holding dropped to the ground, crystal welled up in my eyes, ones that I pushed away before asking in a hoarse voice. “ I am pregnant?” I asked again, just to be certain that my ears haven't been playing tricks on me. That indeed I was getting my gift after all of these years when I thought that all hope was lost. That it had come at the time when I needed it the most. “ Yes” she bobbed. “ You are pregnant, you are in your early trimester, so you ought to be careful. Your husband would be delighted” Squeezing the paper in my hands, my feet traipsed out of the office, while I sank deeper in thought. Maybe, perhaps this was what I needed to fix our relationship, mine with Ryan. *************** My hand clustered around my phone while I wa

    Nina's POV My eyes flickered open in succession as I threw a quick glance across the room I was in, the air sipping in made my head swelled. I swallowed, running a quick glance around when I noticed that I was alone, bile rose in my throat at the memories from earlier, and I sniffed in, pushing myself up the bed when the door creaked open, revealing Reina who stumbled in, a doctor by her side. “Nina” she shrieked out, rushing to hold my hands. “ Are you fine? You shouldn't be out of bed” I flickered my eyes up at the doctor who approached, while I tried to get his name, but my memory was muddled. “ Ryan…” I swallowed while I called. “Where is he?” She stood, nodded at the doctor who came closer, I reclined against the wall, a pillow placed at my back to aid me to sit properly. “I will be checking your vitals now, so you need to relax” I squeezed my eyes shut, trying so hard not to break down right away as it wouldn't be good. My heart punctured with needles, as I tried

    Ryan's POV “ Get out!” My voice thundered against the wall, while I waited for her to stomp off, I had seen her. Nina stood there and oddly, at that moment when I thought that I didn't love her, that it was going to be fine if I hurt her, my heart had thumped harder, and I felt bad at the betrayal. Dezreel’s face contorted into a frown as she clawed her nails to me, holding my wrist. “What are you talking about?” She frowned. “ You know what you promised my grandfather, that you were going to give him a grandchild soon, that was your end of the bargain, so why exactly aren't you keeping it?” I stalked to the window, the dark slamming back into me, while I wondered what Nina would be doing right now. Would she be asleep? On the couch, like she had been for years now? Would she be waiting at home for me to give her an explanation? My little fluffy bear. I thought it was gone, I thought staying away was going to kill whatever emotions I had for her, but I just couldn't do it.

    Nina's POV No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that I was home, I just couldn't. I walked down the air stairs taking in my surroundings while my mother gestured at the housekeeper who strolled in. “ Young madam” all I did was nod, my stomach was beginning to bulge and everything treated me like I was an egg, soft and tender to hold. I knew that it was all that I wanted but that side of me just couldn't stay still, all I wanted to do was talk to Ryan, let him know what he thought, but I knew that he didn't care, he had never cared and that wasn't going to change. “ Nina” my mother called, startling me from the daydream I was having. “ You should come in, the doctor is waiting for you already, and he is here to examine you. You know nothing must happen to the child in your stomach” “ Children” I corrected. My mother came to a step, gazing at me. “ Yes, I am pregnant with twins” I said to her. She stood deep in thought for a jiffy before she asked “Does he know?” I

    Nina's POV Four years later. My hands ran across the gown I had on, simple yet elegant as I inhaled deeply. I didn't know why I felt this way, but I could tell that something was wrong,a feeling which I wasn't supposed to have but I couldn't help it. Today was going to be the day I got wedded to Brian, CEO of a goods conglomerate, which my mother had hooked me up with. I knew that I wasn't in love, that Ryan still occupied a decent part of my mind but I just couldn't help it. It was a way of putting up a strong front. We had been wrecked from within and someone else had been giving out information, classified ones to our opponents. Goods which we were supposed to launch before others knew about them, got out and everyone knew about it before we could even launch it. All effort to get the scoundrel was to no avail and the stocks were falling off and something to hold a strong front was needed. I wasn't in love with Brian, in fact he knew that and I knew that all he did wa

    Ryan's POV Breathless, that was how I felt when I saw Nina. Gosh, she was always one to take my breath away but here and now, in that dress, she was doing that all over again and it just didn't feel right. After trying so hard to get the bargain off my neck, I had finally done that and I had searched all over for her. Spent so much to get her to my side. Everything was futile until I saw the news that her mother was handing over her company to her. I knew her mother wasn't in support of our relationship but I never knew her mother was this wealthy. That she was the owner of the company, I didn't relent, I just couldn't. I didn't care about her mother's wealth or what she thought her mother would do, all I cared about was her. Her love and making sure that she came back to me with our kids. Richard hadn't talked to me in years, I knew that my actions warranted it but staying all alone, without him or anyone else by my side was like torture. Pure one. I still handled his com

    Ryan's POV “Am I doing too much?” I questioned Richard who stood by my side. I had on a sea green suit and a blue lapel which was to match with the gown she had on, but she wasn't here yet. I didn't know what to do, if I was going to cry, but I wanted to do this clear headed and without shedding a tear. It wouldn't make me masculine like I was supposed to be. She shouldn't see me tearing up. Richard stood by my side, in a peach suit to match Reina's own. “You doing too much would be you tearing up when she shows up to the aisle, please don't do that. You did before and it wasn't easy for me to stop you, don't make me do that again” he pleaded. I bore a hole in him at the words he had just spoken. He wasn't supposed to say that .He was still going to rub it over my face. “You did the same to me, remember?” he quizzed when he saw the look on my face. “So I don't really think I am doing anything wrong by telling you what I just did” I shook my head, not wanting to listen to him.

    Nina’s POV “ You don't get it Reina” I hadn't known when exactly this had happened, but it was too much. I had given up on Christopher right now because I had no other option, but that was because my mum looked so happy with him. I knew he was young, well, too young if I am asked, but my mother being happy was everything to me and I wanted her to be. “ You both were going at it raw, what did you expect? A truckload of gifts?”Wait, what? “ I am almost in tears right now,” I explained. I just couldn't explain it, but I was really tearing up. She stood up, patting me on the back. “ It's the hormones, you are actually tearing up” “I am pregnant, just a month to our wedding and I don't know how to tell him, the wedding gown won't fit” “ The designer can always work on it, we can have her do that” “ But still, I am not ready for this. I don't know if I want this child, it is too much for me to bear right now, what exactly am I to do?” I questioned. I had to think about this. All t

    Ryan's POV That name didn't ring a bell at all, why would somebody who wasn't affiliated to them do something like that? Or was it that we didn't know what exactly we were searching for? “ I can't really say” We both got into the Porsche as I answered.“ There is no one else that would be able to give an answer except her, but I don't know where she is”“ Who?” “ Her mother of course, I am so sure Nina doesn't know anyone by that name, and it will be so awkward bringing that up to her, we need to be certain. We don't want her suspecting us now, would we?” A part of me was glad that I didn't have to do this anymore, it would have pricked me a bit to know that. Richard was a drive away from the bar when my phone rang out. “ Ryan, where are you?” I could sense the urgency in her tone as she asked. I swallowed, gazing at Richard whose eyes were probing to know what's wrong when I answered. “ With Richard, is something wrong?” “ Yes, can you come over? I am at the morgue and I di

    Nina's POV I had never felt this jittery in years, months even with how tense I was, I thought I was going to mess things up. “ You have to calm down, he is just your mother's spouse” That brings us back to why we were here, my mother's spouse, the one she said she wanted to introduce to me. I had wanted to be here first, just to get along foremost before passing it on to anybody what exactly he looked like, but my mother had insisted I came with Reina. She was better than me, as it was to be expected, and she was here to keep me in place or so I had thought. “ Something bulging your mind?” I shook my head when she asked. We had just gotten to the spot, fine dining with a reservation so difficult to get even if you were well known, but we seemed to be here, my mum had said this was the designated venue, and so we had to be here on time. “ It's now or never” the door opened with a slight push from me and we were in. It didn't take so long to find the booth that we were looking

Stepping on the gas, I couldn't keep thinking of how everything was just the way it should be presently, but there was merely a problem and that one had to be taken care of. I slammed the brakes in front of Richard's company, swept my gaze around when I stepped out of the car, beaming at the CCTV camera that told me he had his eyes glued on it. I figured him letting out a string of curses at what I had just done, before turning his attention back to his pile of documents. When he wasn't with Reina and the kids, playing the obsessed husband, he had his head into his documents trying to work even harder. Stepping into the elevator, I waited for it to drop me in front of his office and when I did, I pushed the door open. “ You should take a breath, you are always working” I pointed at him when I was

    Nina's POV I beamed at the hand that had wrapped itself around me, before kissing me noisily. Pushing him off gently, I let out a plea. “ Let me sleep a bit, hmm” I pleaded while trying to shut my eyes a bit when the scent of freshly baked potatoes and cabbage lamb roast stew had me opening them in a sec. “ You surely do know how to get me” I gave him a slight jab at the arm before staring around, my mouth watered at the sight before me. “A little bit burnt, but I guess it's the intentions that matters” Ryan said while being nervous. I could tell because he was unusually jittery, which wasn't a fine attribute of his person, unless he had done something wrong, or he intended to do something that has him this way, I hope it was the latter because I could do without any huge thing at the moment. “ Spill” I urged, taking a scoop of the delicious goodness in front of me. A moan escaped my lips sending a little tingle in-between my legs when he stared at me like I was the most delic

    Nina's POV “ Mother” I ran across the pavement after slamming the door shut, accepting the hand she had given me. “ Nina” she enclosed me into her arms, savoring the moment. “ Are you okay? I heard about the verdict?” I bobbed at her, giving her an answer. “ It was nothing, I feel better now, and I am glad that I had to watch” She searched my eyes probing before she pulled away, grasping my hands in hers as she sauntered off with me in suite. “ Is something wrong?” She shook her head. We were at our house, the one where everything had gone down, where I had been poisoned, where I had come to seek refuge after Ryan, and where my father had decided to get. We had memories from this house, a lot of it and I would have kept them all if the very last wasn't as painful as it had been. She smiled briefly before shaking her head. “ Would you want anything else? I am bringing down the house”“ Mother” I exhaled. That must have caused a lot of decisions and I didn't really know if

    Nina's POV My hands squeezed around Reina as as we waited for the judge's verdict, my heart slammed so hard as she made a point on how he had committed murder, and had burnt an orphanage killing kids as well. Everyone had watched the video and it had been brutal. So brutal that I had shut my eyes through it all. “ Brian is sentenced to death by shooting for mass murder, and it should be carried out immediately” she snapped the pen she held into two. He stood up, eyes bloodshot as he glared at the judge. My heart spiked as I recalled what he had done the last time, thinking of how he might make a repeat of the same thing, it was going to be heart-wrenching. “ You won't be able to kill me. You won't be able to, what makes you any different from me? You do the same thing as I do, and you are still alive, you can't!” My eyes brimmed with tears in them, as Ryan punched a hand up in the air, his eyes were on me as he mouthed out. “ We did it” I knew he was also trying to tell me abou

    Ryan's POV My eyes slithered into red when I saw him pinning her against the wall. “ Fuck” I cursed, pushing against the chair in my way before shoving the door open. It came open in a crank and shoving him away from her, I threw a punch into his face. He collided against the wall, before aiming one at me. He threw one on my face, which I returned before we were pulled away. “ I will make sure you live the rest of your life behind bars” I yelled at him, venomously. Even if it was going to take my last breath, I was going to make that happen. Nina stood at the far edge, a hand around her neck as she took in gasps of air, pulling off the jacket I had on, I threw it over her before guiding her out. I made sure we were safe in the car before zooming off. I didn't know what I was going to know if he had hurt her more than this, maybe send his body rolling, I would have made him regret every single thing about his life. I might have ended up punching him to death, the rage in me st
