“Oh, I...I can’t believe it,” It was true. The pain, the tension and the unbearable mood swings. After Angel was born, it was all worth it.I forgot about it all. As soon as I held her in my arms.“Now, baby, the doctors are going to take her away for a second, okay? They need to make sure she’s healthy. Can you do that?” Ethan says in a whimpering, smooth voice.“I..Okay. But please ask them to be... gentle with her. Please.”“I know, baby, they will be. Trust me, okay?”“Okay, okay. Here,” I pass Angel to the nurse and she wraps her around her arms safely.“I can’t believe she’s finally here, Ethan. I can’t believe it.”“Mrs Cooper, we need to run some tests on you too, and I’m afraid we have to do it right now.”“Okay, Okay,” I say, and Ethan looks a little concerned about me. He just saw me giving birth. It was valid.“I’ll be fine, Ethan. I promise. Please watch over at Angel. She needs to be with her father right now. Please, can you?..”“Okay, Okay. I’ll be back, okay? I love y
“So, where are you from? Amazing.” “Here’s another one. “ Where are you from” is the same question everyone asks. I don’t mind answering if you don’t think about how your father and uncle molested you. Yeah, well, a little tough Angelica May survived. California, I smile and answer the stranger next to me, who’s been trying to get into my pants for the last half hour. I’ve always wanted to go there. The stranger says. Yeah, with an attitude like that, you’re gonna have a good time. I think to myself. “Can I get you a drink, please?” Ugh, would they ever stop? It’s the same attitude for all the guys. They’re still saying the same forging pickup line like they have a chance. Sure, I don’t mind having a one-night stand. But sometimes we need only the real intimacy that most men don’t have. Just as I’m about to say no, a voice comes from behind me. “It will not happen, bro.” I turn to see who has such an aggressive, deep voice that I like to hear when I’m in bed. The voice that
Yes. Yes!The moment, the rhythm of the body. It was all a blur, but damn, it was intense.The way he ran his hands through my neck, all the way to my stomach, tickling me, teasing me, all the way down? I don't remember the last time I had such a moment.He grabbed my thighs and told me to get a hold of myself as I'm going out of control. I look at him biting my lip and telling him not to stop, I can listen to all the sounds he's making while he sucks the world out of me.He's so good.He comes back up and kisses my neck, slurping it and tasting it with his tongue, while he grabs both my hands and locks them with his own.Is this what you wanted? He asks.I bite my lip and look at him with the look he wanted me to give him. Don't bite your lip like that. He says.Or what? I say with full confidence well knowingly that I'm going to pay for this.He looks at me as if he's getting impressed by me again and again. Instead of saying anything further, he pulls my body up, spins me over, and
The sunlight is shining directly into my eyes, and my eyes flutter.I wake up and I see a modern wooden table that isn't mine. I immediately start thinking about what I did last night. Suddenly I feel something on my waist.I move the bedsheet just a little to see what it is, and it turns out it's the perfect answer to what I did last night.I turn to see who it was and damn it, it starts coming back to me. All of it.How perfect last night was, how he made me feel, how seductive his touch was.He would be my first choice if I wanted to have a serious relationship.But I guess not every guy wants what he wants.Time to sneak out, I think to myself.I pull aside his hand smoothly and slip out of bed.I pick up my heels, look for my jacket and walk out of the room.As I slip one on my heel in my foot, my eyes get called by a photo frame of him and a woman on the kitchen counter.At that moment, all I could think was, He's married?That's why I'll never have a serious relationship again.
How? How could this be?And why me?Haven't life given me enough trauma that I have to face this now?I can't believe it!I realise that I'm still standing looking at him like a hungry old lady who’s craving some action in her life. I could not speak a single word now. Fu*k this.As soon as I build the courage to speak, He starts walking towards me.My heart starts pounding as if I know what’ll happen next and, God I’ll be lying if I say I do not want to cause any “scene like a romance movie” where you fell in love with the dirties sexiest man ever.But something happens. He walks right past me.He slips into his chair and looks directly at me saying, “take a seat. Miss May.”How is that even possible? No man has ever had this kind of behaviour with me after I’ve slept with him. And the kind of behaviour he’s showing? It is totally different from last night. He was a completely different person.Was it just the drinks? Or was he really into me? Or was he only there for me for s*x?It
Are you sure you don’t know who that is? Asks Nat.Of course. I reply.I don’t know how they got my number or who this person is.All I know is I won’t Give a damn about it.Well, as stupid as it sounds it can be your secret lover texted you from his office.Wait what? Do you think Jonathan is texting me?I ask.Well, given you two having the worst tension in the whole history today, he might want to have one last fling with that body of yours.I seriously can’t realise if you’re just being nice or being flirty. I say as I make my way to my room.Oh come on, you know it’s true. She follows up behind me.I slip into bed and Look at that text again.I see Nat leaning against the door, crossing her arms and looking straight at me.Okay, jokes apart. Whoever he is, don’t try and do something foolish okay?You’ve got a great life and a nice job now. You can’t have distractions.If you want a relationship, be in a real one.Can I go to sleep now?Nat scoffs and rolls her eyes at me before s
I rush back home as quickly as I could. I start to panic like I first did when I was four. "This can't be happening", I think to myself. I was careful. that life behind me long ago. I was so f*cking carefulI sit on the sofa, trying to take it all in. And all I could think of is.He found me, Roger found me.I rush to the kitchen take out the bottle of wine, and start drinking, just to convince myself that I can solve this. As soon as the liquor starts hitting me, I instantly start to get all these flashbacks of my childhood. About my father, his brother, Being screwed up by my aunts and them finally at my worst nightmare."Roger".I get a text from Nat asking me where I was. Living with her sure made me feel safe. If I don't revert to her for more than an hour, she goes all Hard to tackle detective throwing her sweet self away. If I tell her what I just saw today? She's gonna toss all the hard work she did living in California and asks us to move to another place just for my securi
It's been almost a week since I last saw him.From that day, Nat has been picking up and dropping me off every single day, Juts to know whether I safely reached my workplace or not.I couldn't ask for more. No one knows what I'm going through.Yes, I could go to the police. But the only bullsh*t that I will have to face is the lack of evidence.I would have turned him in long before I found out about his true colours. Let's just say I wasn't brave back then. Thinking about Moving here to California gave me the spirit that I need to build as soon as I knew this was wrong. But I guess changing my real Identity was not enough.I didn't see Jonathan the past week as well. All I knew is that Cooper Inc's throwing a big ball for their new merging and cooperation with "Zala Enterprises". All I knew about it was they were all fashion based and they were having a fashion show as a thank you and welfare of both parties.And of course, I was invited.Nat strictly forbids me from going there alon

I was only a few days before I go into labour. My moods were swinging like a cursed wheel. Always going around.Mai and the others held a small get-together for me. Ethan’s friends and all of mine were there. The small celebration was simple, yet so lovely. Some of Ethan’s friends, do have kids too. So it was nice being around there, before time.”I can’t believe I’m about to be an aunt, Anna. I’m so excited.” Mai says while jumping and clapping her hands.“Oh, trust me, I wasn’t sure about going through with it at first. But who am I to question the beauty of birth?”“You’re right, having a baby changes everything. Not to mention a massive load of spending expenses carefully, but I guess that won’t be a problem for you.”“Oh, yeah. Not because we don’t care about the expenses. Ethan and I decided to treat our daughter not too extra and not too low. We don’t want her to be raised like a spoiled kid of a billionaire daughter.“”Well, if you don’t spoil her, I will,” Hailey added, laugh
I drove back home and found Ethan working on some papers.“You’re back,” he says, but his eyes were fixed on the files. “I thought girls’ day out would take you 50 years to come back.”“It wasn’t a girls’ day out, Ethan.“ I say as I walked behind him and held him close in my arms.“What do you mean?” He asks.”I went to see Natalia.”Ethan instantly stopped everything he was doing and spun his body towards me.“What the hell are you talking about? And you’re telling me this just now?!” He says in a growling manner.”Baby, I know that I never told you about this. I should have. But I knew always in my heart how you would react if I asked you.““Yes, because you and I are well aware of what she did, Anna. How long has this been going on?”“I don’t want to meet her Daily, Ethan.“ I say in a simple tone and walked over to him. I held Ethan’s hand tightly in mine.“I know it’s a girl, Ethan. I know.” I say, smiling at him.“You checked the fi-““Nat told me.”“How did she know?”“She actua
--4 months later--“Well, the good sign is the baby is safe and sound. Everything is A-okay,” said Doctor Bruno.“Oh, I...I can’t believe how happy I am to hear this, Doc.” I say.“I know you must be feeling overwhelmed. It’s good. But you should keep a good diet. I would recommend some procedures in case of cramps, and if you need anything else later in the future, please, feel free to contact me anytime.”“Thank you doc, we appreciate it,” I say, and Ethan helps me get up.“Ahem, Uh....Don’t you want to know the gender of the baby?”“You can tell this soon?” I ask Doc and look straight towards Ethan. He gave me a confused and excited look. Ethan wanted to know if the baby was a girl or a boy. He just wanted to be prepared for anyone.“I..I don’t think we should.” I say, and Ethan gives me a cranky look as if he were a child himself.“It’s alright. Many parents decide not to know the gender of the baby until the day of the delivery. It sure is a gift from god. And I’ve seen it go exc
“What are you talking about?” I ask Ethan once again.“Just…come,”I get it. Ethan was frustrated by my behaviour. I mean, I would blame myself too. He was doing everything he could just to make me happy, and I was only giving him a thousand fucks.I get up, straighten myself and cover my damn body with some decent clothes and I walk down the stairs to meet this ‘lawyer’.At first, he was turning his back on me, so I couldn’t know who he was.“Mr Wilson, please to meet you,” I say. As soon as I do, he turns back to look straight at me.“Hello, Anna,” he says, and he looked too fucking familiar. He had this mixed emotions on his face, both angry and emotional. I wouldn’t know which one was the genuine one.“Please, sit,” I say and we both settle down on the couch. He opens up his carry bag and takes out some papers.“What’s all this?““Possessions, Ms-“”It’s…Mrs Cooper.”“Right, Mrs Cooper. these are the possessions your mother left you,”I smile at him, mocking the way he was present
After our sick honeymoon, which was both what I needed and fucked in health issues. We go back to California. The first meeting I had was with Mai.Ethan had to go to the office to do some stuff, so Mai came after her work. She came straight to our place and…”Okay, when was the last date?” She asks.I stay silent because it was fucking 2 weeks ago. It didn’t even come to my mind that there’s a natural way of your body telling you, you’re not fucking pregnant.My silence was enough to tell her it was a long time before I had my date.“Oh, Anna. Have you told Ethan yet?” Mai asks in a soothing tone.“No, not yet. And I fucking won’t till I’m not sure what to do about this situation.”“He deserves to know, Anna. He loves you. So it won’t be hard for him to listen to this if you’re okay.”“How can you be so sure, Mai? He’s Ethan fucking Cooper. Magazines declared him a fucking playboy billionaire humping bimbos for sport. This won’t be the life he needed right now. It’s too soon.”“Hell,
The first day and first night of our honeymoon was mostly raw animal sex. Well, I did expect that. We were laying in bed together after we partied and ate dinner. Ethan was holding me close in my arms when I realised I was having a…nightmare.There was this woman, this mid-40s old woman, looking at me. She wasn’t looking so good. I was a kid, and I was hiding under a table. She was trying to say something but I couldn’t understand what. I kept asking her where were you?But how could I ask her questions like these when I didn’t even know her? Finally, she became accessible to my ears.“I..I’ll find you, baby girl. Don’t worry, I’ll find you.”“M-will come back.”“Mommy will come back,”Mommy? Suddenly, we hear a loud thump and my father comes in, drunk as always.“Where the fuck were you, you stupid cow? Still….f*cking that bastard for money, eh? Come here you…””Noooooooo.””Hey..hey…I’m here. Hey!”I wake up and find Ethan trying to calm me down. He held me close in his arms, protec
It was the day of the wedding. I was getting dressed with my bridesmaids. It was funny that I didn’t have any family left to attend to this loveliest day of my life. But I guess it was alright. I did have a family I chose.I slipped into my gown, and the makeup artist does the rest of the work.“You look so beautiful, Anna,” Hailey states, covering her mouth in appreciation and wiping off tears.“Thank you, Hailey. It means a lot.””So, nervous yet? Do you need to run? I can open that bathroom window for you if you’re having second thoughts.” Mai mocks me.”Oh, shut up. I’m not having second thoughts. In fact, I’ve never been so sure about anything else before. Ethan is the man that I love, and I do want to spend the rest of my life with him.””Uh uh, save this for the vows, sweety,” Stella reverts.“Hey, where are the ushers? We are supposed to be with them in 10 minutes!“ Jay asked.“They’re gonna be here soon. Don’t worry about it,” Hailey says.And finally, after a long chitchat,
Instantly, the sexiest cute-ass men come up the stairs with their shirts tied to their waists and bottles of wine and vodka.“Oh, my god, guys!”2 of them bring a chair for me to sit and they play some music, literally strip dancing in front of me.“Hey, what about Ethan?” I ask Mai.“Oh, he’s having his own party.”“What?!”“Chill out look where you at!”The girls hand me the bag of the dress they wanted me to wear and I change into them within seconds. I come out and see Hailey and Jay holding a big d*ck-shaped pinata.“What the fuck is this?” I say, laughing.“Get a roll on girl, this is all yours!”I laugh like hell as we all drink our first shot and then another and another. Soon I knew I was Hella drunk.The guys forced me to sit on the chair, and well, they began their show. Every single one of them was giving us the time we never thought we’ll get from anyone.Hailey was totally drooling over two unbelievably sexy guys. Jay was enjoying herself too, And Mai? Well, she was the
