Riley was heartbroken. How could she not be? She felt robbed of a better love and life.

What if she fell in love with Adrian instead of Brian? What if Adrian never met an accident? What if Brian did not own up to saving her?

After Adrian told her the truth, she couldn't help but break down in tears.

"I can't—I can't accept it. It should have been you! It should have been you!" Riley's voice cracked with the weight of her emotions. Her hands were tightly clenched against her chest, and her breaths came in uneven gasps.

"Riley." From his wheelchair, Adrian dropped to his knees to level with her. He cautiously held her arms, asking, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No!" Riley held on to Adrian's arm. She said, "I am just so mad at Brian! He lied to both of us."

Her lips quivered, and she said without hesitation, "I just felt that it should have been you, you and me, and not Brian."

Following her response, Adrian pulled her into his embrace. He said, "I couldn't agree more, Riley, but at th

Good chapter although it ended very quickly. Your stories are addictive. Please, for the sake of my heart, write some longer chapters. I keep waiting for them all night. I am in a place 11 hours behind your clock hour.

    "Will you have me?"It amazed Riley that after everything, Adrian was still considerate of her feelings and decisions. He wasn't the type to decide on her behalf and assumed things based on their current status because, obviously, they were already behaving like a real couple. 'Adrian is really a good person,' she mused. Riley gently placed her hands on his cheeks. Her eyes were glued to his captivating gray orbs. With a hint of a smile, she whispered, "I also want us. I want to explore the possibilities of what we could have been if not for your accident. Sadly, we can't go back in time, but It's not too late.""It's not too late," Adrian agreed. He smiled and drew her closer, his forehead resting on hers. "We are here, and we are still young.""So, yes. I'd be happy to have you. No more pretending," Riley nodded in reply. Yet again, tears streamed down her face. This time, however, they were tears of joy, knowing she would face a better tomorrow with a wonderful man. She embraced A

    Riley gasped. She felt goosebumps all over her body when Adrian cupped her breast. He quickly inserted his big hand beneath her satin sleeping dress, and he gently squeezed her bosom. Adrian did not spare her a second to moan because the next thing she knew, his mouth was covering hers again, and their tongues danced together. The air was filled with the sound of their smacking lips and passionate sighs, and Riley could hear nothing more. She felt Adrian's fingers play with her nipple. Often, he would lightly pinch it or let it roll on his finger. His actions stirred Riley thoroughly that her body waved and her hands moved unwittingly, pressing against every muscle of his upper body. Adrian was so toned. His chest was hard, and his stomach was lean. Riley enjoyed every second while she felt him. With the way that Adrian was eating her out, Riley's lips became numbed in no time. Her lips, moist from his kisses, felt incredibly satisfying.Soon, Adrian alternately massaged both her b

    Adrian was highly aroused. As a man, of course, he had dreamed of having Riley beneath him.Riley was completely naked on his bed, looking very inviting. Her chest was heaving. The nipples on her well-rounded breasts were erect, her long legs were shaking, and her face was flushed. Her mouth was slightly parted, and the best part was how she was giving him a view of her naked peach. To Adrian, Riley's rose was ravishing. They looked like full lips, glistening with her love juice. All the more, he imagined how it would feel to enter her. Adrian eagerly spread Riley's legs open. While he fondled himself, he felt how his manhood became harder and thicker. When he aligned his stick to her entrance, his heart raced. 'This is finally happening,' he mused. 'Riley is mine.'"Aaah." The second he pushed his member inside of her, he moaned in ecstasy. All of his hair stood up, and his shaft throbbed!Nothing could ever compare to all of Adrian's wet dreams of Riley. Riley's inside felt warm,

    Riley jolted awake the second she felt the sun's rays hit her eyes. She called, "Adrian?"The man wasn't next to her. When she felt her chest, she realized she was wearing her sleeping dress again. She understood how Adrian had covered her before leaving. But where on earth could Adrian be?Riley hurriedly got up and checked the bathroom. He wasn't there. She checked the time and realized it was already eleven in the morning!Suddenly, Riley felt anxious. Her heart became restless, and she assumed, "Could Adrian have left?"Last night, when Adrian asked her to marry him immediately, she declined, explaining that she did not want to shock Renee. She wanted to give her mother a little time to adjust before she would jump into marriage again. Riley merely wrapped herself in a satin robe before going around the house and looking for him. He was not in the living room. When she went to the dining area, only Rose was there. "Where is Adrian?" She asked. "I'm not sure, Miss. Let me prepar

    "I - I don't know what to say." Renee's face was etched with concern as she gazed at Riley. Her voice trembled, "Are you certain about this?"Because Adrian and Riley decided to get married soon, they went to see Renee at the hospital. As expected, Riley's mother wasn't necessarily thrilled about the news. "Mom, I'm sure about this," Riley's voice rang with determination, her eyes steady. She shared every detail about Adrian, from their college days to his unwavering support over the years. As Riley conveyed the story, Adrian was on the other side of the coffee table, waiting for his turn to speak. "So Brian had lied to you about saving you?" Renee clarified. Her face had turned a shade darker, suggesting she was also angered about what she had discovered. "Yes, Mom," Riley confirmed. "And Brian knew that Adrian liked me then.""Renee, I understand your apprehensions, but I swear I will never cause her harm," Adrian's voice was filled with conviction. "What can I do to prove my sin

    At Adrian's villa, Riley waited in bed for her man to finish showering. She felt utterly anxious. She repeatedly took deep breaths while sometimes clenching her hands against the bed's comforter. Eventually, the man stepped out of the bathroom. As always, Adrian looked divine. His hair was slightly damp, and his muscles rippled down to his lean waist. Instead of pajamas, he wore nothing but a towel around his waist.The way he stood confidently by the bathroom door with minimal support almost made Riley forget he had a leg problem."So, what's the surprise?" Adrian asked, his voice sounding alluring in Riley's opinion. "This is my surprise," Riley answered. She seductively turned around, giving the man her back view. Riley climbed up to the bed on her fours, and as she did, her sleeping dress lifted to her ass. When she felt the room's cold air against her core, she knew she had shown Adrian her surprise. Riley paused without looking at the man. She allowed Adrian time to understan

    Riley enjoyed the feel of Adrian's thick and long member going in and out of her. He was filling her walls and reaching her very ends. Her body was shaking from all the multiple orgasms she was experiencing when Adrian suddenly held her waist and thrust up with strength. "Aaaah." Adrian moaned audibly. His eyes were closed, and his jaws were clenched. Riley knew that look anywhere. Not a moment too soon, she felt the man's warm fluid loading her womb. Her eyes rounded as she asked, "Did you... cum already?"The man groaned. He pulled her down his body and embraced her tightly. He admitted, "Yeah. I had been holding it since you gave me a head. I'm sorry. It felt too good."Riley was a bit disappointed. However, just as she was lying on the man's chest, she felt his manhood twitch inside of her. Adrian said, "Don't worry. I'm not done with you yet."Adrian suddenly rolled her to the other side of the bed and pushed his stick deeper into her. "Aaaah." His actions caught her by surpris

    ###FLASHBACK###Over six years ago. Abner finally made the decision to allow Linda to fly into Sweden for Adrian's care. It had been a grueling five months since the accident, and finally, Adrian could manage to sit up. However, he was still unable to stand, not even for a second, and he was also dependent on others for basic tasks like going to the bathroom and changing his clothes, etc.Linda had arrived with a concerned look. She set the hospital bed table and watched Adrian eat in the next few minutes, her eyes never leaving him. When Adrian was done, Linda asked, "Adrian, can you tell me again about the accident? What threw you off the course?"Adrian let out a heavy sigh. He did not enjoy recalling the accident. He shook his head and said, "I don't want to discuss it.""Adrian, it's important," Linda insisted. "I remember you said that you felt something pull your leg.""Yes. Maybe a twig," Adrian replied without eagerness. He still had scratch marks on his arms and some on his

    “Happy Birthday, Grandpa. I love you and miss you,” Freya said while putting a flower on Abner’s grave. Charlie followed, putting her teddy bear down. She said, “Grandpa, you can have Mr. Bear. So you won’t miss us too much.”Jasper followed, leaving a card that he had drawn for Abner. He asked, “Hey, Grandpa. Is it always a buffet in heaven?”The adults behind the kids laughed. Jasper turned to his parents, objecting, “Grandpa told me there’s a buffet in heaven!”“Dad did say that a lot,” Anthony remarked, chuckling. More than a year had gone by since Abner’s passing, and they all visited him in his mausoleum, the same one that housed his departed wife, Marilyn King. Charles and Realyn were also present, bringing along their son. Carson had made a Lego mansion for Abner. He placed it above his tomb and said, “Grandpa, I made a house for you. Hope you like it.”Kian moved forward next. He pouted as he said, “Great-grandpa Abner, since you left, the house has been a bit boring. Daddy

    “Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, Dear Freya. Happy birthday to you!” On Freya’s 6th birthday, everyone gathered again. The celebration was held at the very first Diamond Hotel in Halliport. Freya stood on the stage with her parents and siblings. She wore a crown over her head and a ballroom gown fit for a princess. She had a bright smile before she blew the candles on her cake. The audience erupted into applause, after which the party host asked, “What was your wish, Princess Freya?”“That I will grow strong and healthy so I can be a businesswoman someday!” Freya declared, adding to everyone’s amusement. Praises echoed in the ballroom. Carrying both his sons, Adrian struggled to clap his hands, but Jasper and Kian did it for him. “Yay! My turn to blow!” Charlie said. She was beaming while being held by Riley. “No, me!” Jasper screamed. “No, me!” Kian said. The guests laughed out loud at how Riley and Adrian’s children wanted to blow out the candles

    Over a year passed. “Five minutes more, and we are done,” Adrian said as he continued to run on the treadmill. “Honey, I can’t believe I’m back to running for two straight hours again,” Riley said while catching her breath. Her body was sweating profusely, her athletic wear soaked altogether.” It was the same for her husband. Adrian’s skin was glowing in his sweat, and with him running half-naked, he looked mighty fine. “Rrr. Somebody looks hot,” Riley remarked while checking out her husband. “We should have sex after shower.”“We should,” Adrian said while chuckling. “The last time we tried to make love, Freya walked in on us.”“We should learn to lock the door,” Riley said, but locking the doors was easier said than done when Freya always demanded their time and attention whenever they were home. Since delivering the Triplets, Riley had always asked Adrian to be her exercise buddy. Although her postpartum belly has still not fully recovered, she is getting there. The best part i

    “What? Why can’t we see Riley before the delivery?” Renee asked, furious. “Why is she delivering early?”“It’s a delicate pregnancy, Aunt, and she is going into operation right now. Don’t worry. I will take care of Riley,” Zia said. Zia knew that Riley had hidden the truth about her pregnancy. During her second trimester, Riley had attempted to wear baggy clothes to conceal her growing belly. Zia also knew Riley purposely evaded seeing her parents and aunt personally in the recent months.Only Zia, Clint, Abner, Adrian, and Riley knew the truth. Zia even colluded with Riley, giving her a fake ultrasound report.Now, Riley was already 34 weeks pregnant. It was too early for her to give birth, but it had to be done. Going further into the pregnancy was too dangerous. “What’s her condition? Is it polyhydramnios?” Renee asked. This was one of Renee’s suspicions, but Zia always found a way to avoid the topic. “It’s one of those rare pregnancies, Aunt - Oh! I hear Riley crying. I better g

    Time passed again, and it was finally time for Zia to give birth to her twins. Zia had no complications during her pregnancy. Thus, she decided to give birth vaginally. She was prepared for the worst. Zia had delivered countless babies and witnessed different kinds of mothers, including those who screamed, cried, prayed, counted numbers, and more. So, Zia was quiet despite the labor pains. However, it was not the same for her husband, Clint.Zia wanted to avoid an epidural if possible, saving it as a last resort. During labor, she hummed and took deep breaths. They were in their birthing suite, with Clint holding Zia’s hand. Between the two of them, it looked like Clint was about to give birth. He was sweating and already jittery. He said, “Zia, you are so strong. I love you so much.”Soon, it was time for Zia to push. She gave it her all. Clint and her doctor helped her through it. However, after several attempts, the first baby was still not coming out! Zia’s doctor decided to perf

    “Honey? What are you doing here?” Adrian asked, surprised to see Riley stepping onto the private jet. He was scheduled for a trip to check on the project’s progress in Hawaii, so her unexpected arrival caught him off guard.“I’m coming with you!” Riley declared. “It’s been a while since I accompanied you on business trips. Why not mix business with pleasure? And don’t worry, Freya is staying with Aunt, and so is Grandpa. I figured it was about time we had more alone time together.”She beamed and settled on the seat next to Adrian. She pressed her lips into his ear and pointed out, “You do realize that I am about to ovulate. This is the perfect time to have lots of sex!”“Honey,” Adrian said. “I know about that. I was coming back tomorrow morning.”“Yes, but why not have lots of sex in paradise?” Riley pointed out. “Maybe we need a little adventure.”She scanned the private jet, and after finding Adrian’s new male assistant, she whispered, “We can have, you know, sex on the beach, on t

    “Riley, Aunt Renee needs us,” Adrian revealed in the middle of the night. Riley was fast asleep when Adrian awoke her. She got up immediately, and a worried expression appeared on her face. She asked, “What happened to Aunt?”“Her blood pressure went up, so the doctor decided to deliver the baby prematurely,” Adrian said while getting off the bed. “Dad just called. He is in a panic.”Riley frowned. Because Zia was very pregnant and her stomach was growing bigger, she had to hold off from delivering babies, but she was still on top of her aunt’s condition. She had also appointed the second-best doctor to attend to Renee. “I’ll call Zia,” Riley said while leaving the bed. Time had passed again. Her aunt’s pregnancy was already thirty-four weeks, not yet full term. Naturally, Riley was worried. She had heard Gaby’s story about their struggle with Kenneth and the triplet’s birth, so she was afraid her aunt would go through the same situation. “Zia? Thank you for picking up,” Riley said

This was Clint and Zia’s wedding celebration. They did not wait long and wed while Zia was still ten weeks pregnant. Clint and Zia wanted to make things formal before Zia’s belly grew too big. Clint glided down the center aisle of the ballroom with casual, effortless confidence. His steps were smooth and rhythmic, exuding a cool, controlled vibe as he moved to the beat. He and his crew of groomsmen dancers execute sharp, synchronized moves that give the choreography a sense of unity and camaraderie.With every slick move, their smiles were evident. They occasionally winked at the crowd, giving off that suave look. The wedding was held at the Marriot Hotel, and over five hundred guests were invited. Most guests were Clint
