Amber POV “Why are you not eating,” Ivan asked, serving vegetables on my plate.“I am done” I replied looking at him. I had just lost my appetite, I was feeling nervous around him like a teenager meeting her crush for the first time. “You didn't eat anything yet,” He said, arching his brows like reading me what was going on inside my mind.“I had a chocolate milkshake in the evening”, I replied.“Still you should eat a little, You have to take medicines on time”, He said, but it was like he is demanding me to eat.“Master…” Amanda entered with the cake.

She constantly made sure to never lie to him. Perhaps she never only hid things regarding her father.“Ok, why was your cellphone switched off,” He asked, controlling his temper. He never tolerates lies, especially from her. He repeatedly claimed her as his. Furthermore, he never expected a lie from her. Now he knew the white lie she told him. He wanted to punish her to make sure to never lie to him.“Battery was a drain, I just plugged it” She again lied with hesitation. She couldn't tell him she left Russia, running from everything, to live her life in peace.“Liam….” she said after meeting with his silence. Liam was standing at his place loo

You still need it,” I urged. If it was earlier, she won't be able to show tantrums to me, but I can't be the old one ever.“Yes…” she whispered.“What about the feeling between us,” I asked, but met with her silence.“Tomorrow I will show you” I added Something had happened, and I was unable to understand the sudden changes in her behavior after our date. She started distancing herself from me. “When will generate fix,” she asked.“I don't think, so they can do it at night in this cold snowing weather” I responded. Now I did a trick, so she didn't have any option and stayed in my room on my bed.“But last time you ordered to resolve it” she replied, covering herself in the blanket.“They might have not
“Great Morning” Liam murmured, brushing his lips on the edges of her lips. It had been three days since they were getting along in California. They were lying in the same room Liam booked that midnight. He received numerous calls from his Dada, but he neglected them. The sole thing that was a matter to him was Amber, and the punishment he gave her would take at least three days to heal. The last two days they spent cuddling each other and watching countless movies.“Good morning,” Amber whispered, turning to the other side. There was no harm in sharing a bed, and Liam also had given promised that he won't do anything unless she allowed it.“Want to sleep more?” He asked, taking her to his hard trunk. Her soft mound rubbed his naked chest. She was without innerwear. Her sore ass was not allowing her to get into panties, and Liam suggested she doesn't require wearing innerwear in his presence. He told her that her body need to be relaxed to heal. He manipulated her to bed down without u
Amber POVThe sunlight caresses my face and birds are chirping. The strain of snow on the plants was melting. Today was the day the sun came to welcome us. After a month, I got sunlight rays on me. My body was enjoying the Sunbath, but my mind was remembering every word of Vanessa. Questions were running through my mind about the way his body stiffened when I asked “Is someone in his life”“Is he lying?”“He has a mistress”“What if I am his mistress? He never showed our wedding album?”“Is he playing with me?”We are going tonight for a date,” He whispered in my ear making me startled. I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't notice him coming onto the balcony. His warm body hugged me from behind and his grip on my stomach. A few days ago, the touch I considered happy and safe now felt like a cage.“But….” I trailed off, picking up a breath. I couldn't take discussions in a rush, I needed time to think before having any decision.“It has been a month baby, but you are still no
“We won’t let anything happen to our baby sister,” Liam said firmly. His calm voice was filled with urgency, leaving Salina and David stunned and speechless.“Liam…” David started, his voice shaky with uncertainty. The air was thick with unasked questions and concern.“Baby sister?” Salina asked, looking between David and Liam, confused. Liam took off his mask and said, “We’re twins, Salina.”“Twins?” Salina’s eyes widened in shock as she stared at Liam, trying to process the revelation. She touched Liam’s hair gently, as if trying to confirm he was real.“You…” she whispered, staring at him in disbelief. Liam chuckled softly, noticing how much Salina looked like his biological mother. It suddenly made sense why she seemed so familiar.“We are twins, Salina,” Liam repeated, guiding her to a chair and ruffling her hair with a mix of joy and disbelief at finding his sister.“How… How did you know? What’s going on, David?” Salina asked, her hands nervously smoothing her hair as she looke
“Let's meet her,” Ivan said, taking my hand in his warm grasp and giving it a gentle squeeze. I smiled, though I was nervous about meeting someone from his family for the first time since regaining my consciousness. I wasn’t sure if we’d met before when I had my memory.A girl with dirty blond hair was eating a forkful of pasta, her eyes closing in satisfaction. A helper stood behind her, and the table was filled with food. Sensing our presence, she opened her eyes, her cheeks flushing red. “Sorry, I started before you both joined, but I was starving,” she said, sounding like a child.Ivan chuckled and added, “I’m happy you’re enjoying the food. That’s a rare side of you.”“I’m not that choosy,” she pouted, her eyes meeting mine.“Amber,” she said with a smile, revealing a small dimple on her right cheek, a small button nose, and glowing fair skin. Her eyes were brown, unlike the blue eyes often seen in Russians. I felt someone nudge my elbow and looked up to see Ivan’s concerned eyes
Past....Liam sat outside the ICU in the dead of night, his eyes tightly shut. Ten agonizing hours had passed since the doctors disappeared behind those doors, and the constant hustle of nurses carrying blood bags and medical gear only heightened his sense of helplessness. Normally unfazed by blood, Liam's demeanor tonight betrayed a deep-seated fear—the prospect of losing his only family, Amber and their unborn child.Nick, observing his idol, sensed the impending storm beneath Liam's usually calm exterior. He had already deduced who was responsible for the attack.Liam's eyes snapped open as the ICU door creaked open, and Dr. Williston emerged, his sigh of relief audible as he removed his cap. “David, she's stable,” the doctor announced, trying to reassure Liam.“What about the baby?” Liam's voice trembled with anxiety, his heart pounding at the thought of losing another loved one.“The baby is fine,” Dr. Williston confirmed, though the worry etched on his face betrayed the severity
Present “Baby, why are there so many marks?” He questioned me while tracing my arms that was covered with red marks. I took a deep breath before closing my eyes. I could feel his gaze fixed on me. I did not want to meet his inquisitive gaze. What would I tell him, About the betrayal I had committed in the past, which I had completely forgotten? “Baby…" His voice was gentle as a feather, and he cupped my face, but I lacked the courage to look into his eyes. My eyes were closed, and tears flowed. I felt him kiss my tears before pressing his lips against mine. I allowed him to do whatever he wanted. He was savoring the moment and taking his time kissing me; we both needed one another. I could not stop myself from kissing him back and stroking his silk hair. He picked me up, and I wrapped my leg around his torso as we sucked on each other's mouths. I could feel him adjusting me to the cabinet as his hand began massaging my boobs. I inhaled deeply as I moaned into his mouth, his index f
Past..“Amber…” Liam gasped, catching her collapsing body in his arms. His fingers brushed against something wet on her back—blood.“Shit…” he cursed, rolling them both toward the wall. The gunshot echoed in his mind. Someone had fired at them, and Amber was hit.“Ahhh…” Amber's cry pierced through the chaos, her agony raw and unfiltered.“Don't close your eyes,” Liam urged, his voice trembling with desperation. He helped her to sit on the floor, his eyes darting to the open window, knowing another shot could come at any moment. He needed his phone and laptop to call Nick, to get them to the hospital.“Just stay here,” he whispered, his heart pounding as he began to crawl toward the table. As he reached for his phone, another gunshot rang out, forcing him to dodge. The bullet whizzed past, embedding itself in the wall.“Fucker, how did anyone find our location?” he spat, fear and anger coursing through him.“Liam…” Amber's breathing was rapid and shallow. Blood continued to pour from
“What exactly are you doing here?” I inquired, my expression serious as I stared at Salina's broad smile.“Stop with the death glares,” she said, tucking her hair behind her ears and striding into my study, her heels clicking against the floor.“Who told you I was here?” I asked, closing the file I had been reading.“I didn't come here to see you,” Salina replied, taking a seat and placing her handbag on the table.“Then who?” I probed, fixing my gaze on her. During her time in Russia, she often spent time with us, occasionally meeting with David and me. She was the only person in the world who knew about our existence.“Amber…” she smirked. “My sister-in-law.”“Don't get involved,” I cautioned. It wasn't that she posed a threat, but Salina's bubbly personality could be overwhelming.“Don't be possessive,” Salina shot back, her tone sharp. “I was the one who donated plasma when she was pregnant with your child and lying in the hospital bed.”“Sorry,” I murmured softly. I knew I could
Past…“Have you seen my book?” Amber inquired of Liam while searching for her novel in bed.“Nightstand, right side drawer,” Liam responded, working on his laptop.“When did I keep here?” she muttered as she opened the drawer that held her book and chocolates.“Oh, god, half of the book is yet to be read,” she said, sitting on the bed and biting into her chocolate.Liam cast a questioning look at her, and she noticed his gaze. Amber inquired, “What?” Amber inquired, prompting Liam to pause his typing.“You were on the final chapter last night, and I told you to sleep and read tomorrow,” he replied.“It must be another book, Liam.” “I have good memory power, but this book is still incomplete,” she said, ignoring Liam and reading her novel.“Do not you remember the female lead? What was her name? Amber asked Liam, “Hazel,” as he struggled to remember her name. “Yes,” Liam answered, adding, “She was fleeing the golden cage.”“How come Ethan will not let her?” Amber argued.“What is the
“Did you get any allergy?” Ivan asked, picking up my hand in his palm, and applying lotion like I was some fragile doll.“I am fine Ivan,” I said, getting my hand from his grip, but he didn't let go and said" Let me call the doctor and do a body checkup why is your skin getting reddish nowadays” “No, I am fine” I did, standing from his lap and he stopped before I could run away from his study.“Why are you so upset” Ivan asked, holding my shoulder while my gaze was down looking at his casual sniper. It has been a week since I was avoiding him and I could feel he was pissed off but controlling himself to not lash out at me.“Nothing, Just….” He cut me off, like scolding a little child” Stop lying” “Ivan…” I didn't have what to tell him but sighed. “Tell me if I have made any mistakes, just let me have the baby,” He said, cupping my face. The pleading was visible in his eyes, asking for his mistake.“No, you didn't,” I whispered.“You will conceive soon. Are you upset about that,” He
Past“How are you feeling” Liam asked laying beside Amber on the bed.“Feeling good” She whispered.“Good…" Liam said, caressing her bare arms. The touch was gentle and warm, also giving a hint to Amber about his desire.“Do you want us to visit the hospital?" Liam asked, placing a kiss on her temple.“No., I do not feel any pain” Amber replied in nervousness and added" Liam…Baby will be hurt”“Nothing will happen to the baby, couples do sex while pregnant” Liam replied, caressing the collarbone and sliding straps of the top he put a gentle kiss on her shoulder.“But….” Liam cut her off, catching her lips for his hungry kiss. He kissed her passionately, making her moan in his mouth. his fingers started rubbing her nipples.“Liam please,” Amber said, leaving his lips.“Do you want me to tie your hand?” Liam asked, taking her hand above her head, her body stiff in panic while his other hand took ham off her top taking above her head and tied her hand.“Let me love you Amber, I am frust
