KEIRA’s POV

I walked through the front door of my apartment the moment Clint dropped me off. I was apprehensive about going in, knowing Natasha would be home by now. But what could I do?

I needed to face her and work things out once and for all.

As soon as I stepped in, I could feel the tension in the air. The atmosphere was thick with hostility, and I knew something was wrong. I took off my coat and walked into the living slowly like I was sneaking up on someone. As soon as I was in, my eyes instantly caught Natasha sitting on the sofa.

Well, here goes nothing, I thought.

I tried to approach Natasha, who was sitting on the couch with a book on her lap and a cup of tea in her hands.

"Hey, Tash. Can we talk about what happened earlier?" I asked, trying to keep my tone calm and steady.

Natasha did not answer me. She just glared at me with pure contempt, and I could feel the hurt and sadness building inside me. I did not want to fight with my best friend, but I knew that I had to try a

    KEIRA’s POVI wished it was not real. Somewhere, at the back of my mind, I hoped that this photo I was staring at was completely fake and a prank to scare me. I desperately wished for that. But I was very well aware of the reality. The photo was real.My hands trembled as I stared at the phone, owl-eyed, in shock and disbelief. My eyes trailed to the number that had sent me the photo. It was an unknown number, and I could not trace back to it or even text a reply.I stared at the photo, trying to make out the contents.The photo was taken from a distance, but it was still clear enough to reveal my features. I wore my favorite blue hoodie, a checkered skirt, and black leggings. My hair was tied up in a messy bun, and I had a large tote bag slung over my shoulder. This was the outfit I had worn to Clint's office today. There was no mistaking it. In the background, I could see the entrance to my apartment building. The time stamp on the photo showed that it was taken just a few hours ag

    CLINT’s POVWhen I returned to the hospital, I was swarmed with work. My secretary had not informed me of my busy schedule, and I suffered dearly.I had cleared most of my schedule when I relaxed on the chair and slid my phone out of my pocket. Even though I had seen Keira a few hours ago, I still craved her presence. I knew it was selfish of me, but I wanted her to spend the night in my house, on my bed. I lazily tapped on my phone screen as I decided to call Keira, but my heart sank at what I saw when the screen came to life. There were approximately sixty-eight missed calls from one person. Keira.I frowned as I gazed at my screen. Why would Keira call so many times? Was everything okay? The last question hit me like a blow. She would not spam me with so many calls if everything was fine.Knowing Keira, something was definitely wrong. Whenever Keira was distressed, I was the first person she contacted. Anxiety struck me like an arrow, and fear dawned on me.Keira had called me so

    KEIRA’s POV"Would you like tea? Or coffee?"Clint asked from his kitchen.I shook my head at him and wrapped the blanket tighter than ever. I was seated on Clint's comfy sofa, my knees raised to my chest. Clint had picked me out of my room and taken me to his place after he discerned that it was unsafe for me to be there.I could still remember vividly how everything played out. I could faintly recall crying myself to sleep, like a baby, when I saw that Clint was not answering my calls.When I heard his voice calling out my name, I thought I was in a lucid dream, and because of how desperately I wanted him, I imagined he was here. But when I looked up and saw his face, I knew it was not some lucid dream.It was as clear as day. Clint was right there, in front of me. At that moment, he looked like an angel, shining brightly as he came to my rescue. When he wrapped his hands around me, I felt myself relax. Clint really was the only emotional support I had.I rubbed my puffy eyes and sun

    KEIRA"And these are the charts for the last financial predictions made by..."I sat in my business class, trying to focus on what the professor was saying. Still, my mind kept reverting to the threats my stepbrother had sent me. The last text message, in particular, stood out. It made me feel vulnerable and scared, but Clint reassured me, and since James was on the case, it offered me a bit of relief. But something else probed my mind. It was Natasha.We had left the apartment without saying a word to each other, but the pang in my chest was enough proof that we needed to sort things out as soon as possible.As the professor discussed financial statements and analysis, I felt further away from the present. I could not shake the feeling that someone was watching me, and I felt a wave of anxiety wash over me.My mind doubled back to the breathing exercises Clint had taught me. As I sat in my chair, I breathed in and out silently. It was the only thing I could do to stop myself from ha

    KEIRA’s POVI sat in my car, exhausted after a long day at school, waiting for Natasha to join me. After we made up, Natasha still had a class to attend, so I decided to wait for her.We had decided to go out for dinner together. It was the perfect way for us to bond and catch up. I was craving some Chinese while Natasha wanted to try out a new sushi place she had heard about."Hey, Keira! So sorry I am late. I had to finish some work with a professor in my department," Natasha said, sliding into the passenger seat beside me."No worries, let us get going!" I replied, revving the engine and driving out of the school parking lot.We chatted about our day, discussing the projects each of us had been given in our classes. Natasha giggled as I described how boring my last lecture was. She told me everyone in her class dozed off to Mrs. Carter's teaching.I chuckled lightly. My heart filled with warmth. When was the last time I talked to a friend like this? I just realized how much I misse

    KEIRA’s POVI lay on my bed, staring up at the ceiling with my phone clutched in my good hand. I took a deep breath and hit the call button, praying that Clint would answer. After a few rings, he picked up."Hey, Keira," Clint's smooth voice came through the line, and I felt my heart rate slow a little. "What's up?"I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. "Clint, there was an accident. I was in a car with Natasha and lost control of the steering. I do not know how, but I could not control the car again, and because of that, we hit a pole on the side of the road.""What? Are you okay?" Clint's voice was concerned, and I could hear him rustling around, probably looking for his keys."I am okay, but my arm is messed up. I think I broke it." I winced as I moved my arm slightly, feeling the pain shoot through it."I'm coming over," Clint said firmly. "I need to check on you and ensure you are doing okay. Where are you?""I am home. Natasha is too.""Okay, I am on my way now."I hung up, f

    KEIRAA sense of comfort washed over me when I stepped into Clint's living room. I no longer felt scared or worried that someone was watching my every move. Clint led me to his sofa and made me settle down on it."Have you had dinner?"I shook my head and frowned when I recalled the dinner plans Natasha and I had. Clint kissed my forehead softly and smiled at me. "I will order us some pizza. What would you like?"I shrugged. "As long as there is no pineapple on top."Clint nodded and pulled out his phone. While he ordered the pizza, my eyes drifted away from him and towards the unlit fireplace. A sense of guilt began to prick my heart. What if leaving Natasha alone in that apartment was not a good idea? What if Calvin gets to her and uses her as a hostage to threaten me?My heart sank at these scenarios I played out in my head. No matter how much I tried, I wanted to stop thinking about all of this, even if it was for a second. Still, my mind said otherwise. Instances played in my he

    KEIRA’s POVI woke up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and sizzling bacon. I slowly stretched my good arm and realized I was in Clint's cozy king-sized bed. It wasn't the first time I stayed over, but it still felt like home. I smiled as I recalled last night's pillow talk and his soft kisses on my neck.The birds chirping and the curtain fluttering as the wind passed filled me with calmness. I turned to my side, hoping to be face-to-face with Clint, but to my disappointment, the other side of the bed was empty. I frowned and cocked an eyebrow.Where did Clint go?I carefully got up from the bed and wrapped myself in Clint's shirt, which was too big for me but comfortable nonetheless. I winced as my injured arm reminded me of the accident from yesterday. The injury was a nuisance, but I was glad it was not fatal.I stretched out my right hand and groaned at the slight pain that ran through it. I could tell that the arm was healing because the pain had subsided to an extent. I mu

    KEIRA As I stood in the dressing room, gazing at my reflection in the mirror, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and anticipation. Today was the day I had been waiting for, the day I would marry Keira and officially make her mine.I adjusted the lapels of my navy blue suit, feeling the smooth fabric against my fingertips. The tailored cut hugged my frame perfectly, giving me a sense of confidence and elegance.

I couldn't help but mirror his smile, feeling a sense of comfort and joy at the sight of him."Good morning," he said softly, his voice carrying an air of excitement and anticipation. "Come with me, I have a surprise for you."Still half awake, I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Why are you waking me up like this?" I mean, waking up to him was good, but I felt like I still needed some extra hours in bed.He shook his head, his smile never faltering. "Nothing's wrong, I promise. Just trust me and come with me."I cocked my eyebrow at him, curious, but skeptical about what was making him so giddy.Without warning, Clint took my hand in his and pulled me out of the bed."Hey, slow down," I giggled as he pulled me all the way out of the room.He led me down the stairs, and as soon as I stepped into the livi

    CLINTI went owl-eyed as I stared at Martha, who gave me an unreadable look. As I looked at her, a mixture of anger and frustration surged within me. I couldn't believe she had followed me to the shop, invading the private and joyful moment I had been savouring.Or maybe I was starting to get used to this, Martha and showing up to ruin things as though she hadn't ruined enough things for me already. After ruining more than five years of my life, I was more than certain that she was sent straight from Hades to steal any chance of happiness that I could get. It's not like I was going to let her, though.I watched as her eyes trailed to the bag in my hand, and before I could react, she spoke with a bitter tone, "So, you came here to shop for a ring. I guess you're serious about getting married to that woman."I gritted my teeth to maintain my composure, but her words stung like a sharp knife. "Martha, this is none of your business," I said firmly, my voice laced with irritation. She di

    CLINTI slowly reached out, holding the pregnancy test in my hands. The word "positive" was displayed clearly before my eyes, and I was struck with a mix of emotions that left me stunned. I blinked, trying to process the reality of what I was seeing. A surge of happiness bubbled up inside me, intertwined with a sense of uncertainty.My heart raced, and my mind raced even faster. The thought of Keira, the woman I loved, carrying our child was both thrilling and overwhelming. We had talked about a future together, but this was a new level of commitment and responsibility, and it left me feeling a bit unsteady.As I stood in the bathroom, I realised that the entire trajectory of our lives had shifted in an instant. Parenthood was a journey I hadn't been prepared for, but seeing the positive result brought an unexpected joy that I couldn't ignore.There was a certain glow of happiness that spread through me. Yet, at the same time, a question echoed in my mind – were we truly ready for thi

    KEIRA As I slowly opened my eyes, a wave of pain washed over me, centred in my head. My vision was hazy, but as it cleared, I realised I was back in the beach house, lying in a bed. Memories of last night began to flood back, and I winced as I recalled the intensity of the dancing and laughter, followed by my sudden sickness.My head throbbed relentlessly, and I tried to sit up, only to be met with a rush of dizziness. My body felt weak and unsteady like it had never before. Nausea twisted in the pit of my stomach, threatening to overwhelm me.For a moment, I lay still, taking deep breaths, trying to steady myself. The events of last night seemed like a whirlwind, and I couldn't quite grasp what had caused me to feel this way. My hand instinctively reached for my forehead, feeling the clamminess of my skin.I closed my eyes, trying to regain my composure. "What is happening to me?" I murmured to myself, my voice weak.My head still ached as I grabbed my phone, deciding to look up m

    CLINTEven though I had been able to give Keira three orgasms from when we left the restaurant, I knew that we still had to talk, and the look on my little girl's face was the only confirmation that I needed. Damn Martha. The dimly lit bar provided a somber backdrop to the tension that hung between us. As we sipped our wine in silence, the weight of unspoken words weighed heavily on my heart. It was Keira who broke the stillness, her voice soft and hesitant."What's going on, Clint?" she asked, her eyes searching mine for answers.I took a deep breath, knowing I couldn't keep the truth from her any longer. "Martha has been sending me texts," I admitted, my voice tinged with discomfort. "She said she missed me and wanted to talk."If I had my way, I would keep it from Keira so that she would not have to worry about something as trivial as Martha's annoying feelings. But since it had come to this, there was no hiding anything again. Without a word, I pulled out my phone and showed he

    KEIRA"I should not be doing this," I mumbled to myself as I got out of the cab and then covered the remaining distance by foot. My heart pounded in my chest as I stood outside, pacing anxiously around Clint's car. His abrupt departure from the house had taken me by surprise, and something inside me urged me to follow him. I was tired of him hiding things from me, tired of feeling left in the dark. Especially when it felt like something that would affect both of us. Instinct took over, and without a second thought, I walked towards the restaurant he had driven to. Through the glass window, I saw him seated with a woman, her face all too familiar – his ex-wife, Martha, nothing prepared me for this and the sight hit me like a dagger to the heart. My heart clenched tightly and I took a deep breath to relieve the pain that was slamming at me from every part of my body. Was Martha the reason why he had been acting all weird? What was going on between them? I watched as they converse

    CLINTI stood in the dimly lit room, my phone held tightly in my hands, my gaze fixed on the screen for what seemed like an eternity. Keira's voice interrupted my trance, pulling me back to the present."Clint, what's the problem? You've been staring at your phone for a while now."I blinked, trying to compose myself, but my mind was already racing. "I... I'll be back," I replied, my voice hurried and distracted. Without giving her a chance to respond, I abruptly left the room, a sense of urgency propelling me forward.Frantically, I grabbed my coat from the hanger and fumbled for my car keys. I needed to move, to do something, anything, to find the answers that eluded me. The weight of the unknown burdened my thoughts, and I couldn't ignore the gnawing feeling that something was going to go wrong.As I rushed to my car, my heart pounded in my chest, matching the rhythm of my hurried footsteps."Clint!"
