Stella’s P.O.V.

The music pounds around me, and Selena and Zoe are dancing, trying to pull me into the moment, but I can’t.

It’s been a week since I caught my boyfriend cheating on me, and since then, I’ve been trying hard to move on, but nothing is helping me out. I’m also trying to keep my distance from Alex as much as possible because I know that if I talk to him, I’ll end up begging him again to make me feel better.

I’m yearning for the way Alex made me forget all my pain like magic that night, but I just can’t let him do that again. It’s so wrong.

Seated on the corner seat, I sip the drink in my hand, but the alcohol does little to numb the pain. It’s like I’m trapped in my mind, no matter how much I try to distract myself.

I watch as people laugh, drink, and let loose, wishing I could do the same. But all I can think about is the betrayal, the image of Jade and Leah haunting me.

Selena comes back to the table. “Stella, try to let it go. Come and try to dance.”

    Stella’s P.O.V.“Stand in front of the mirror and take off your clothes, Stella.” He orders in a husky voice, his intense gaze making me weak on my knees.Jade never looked at me like this—with so much desire, so much intensity. It’s like Alex’s gaze is devouring me, stripping away all the pain with each passing second. I feel the wetness between my legs just from the way he’s looking at me.“Do it, Flower.” He commands again, pulling me back to the earth.I obey, stepping in front of the full-length mirror that takes up one wall of his room. My reflection stares back at me, and I wonder. Am I really worthy of this? Of him?‘I’m bored with you. Your body doesn’t even turn me on anymore. No curves, no excitement. You’re not a desirable woman. You never satisfied me.’ As Jade’s cruel words ring in my ears, my eyes well up with tears.Don’t cry, Stella. Just don’t cry again.“What’s wrong?” Alex asks, standing behind me, his hands gently gripping my arms as he looks at me in the mirror.

    Alex’s P.O.V. I scoop Stella into my arms after making her cum hard on my fingers, and she buries her face in my chest, encircling her arms around my neck. I carry her towards the bed and gently lay her down on it. After leaning down, I run my fingers through her hair. “Feeling better now.” She looks at me with a smile on her face. After a long week, finally, her smile reaches to her eyes, and it gives me immense peace. She responds, her eyes fixed on me. “Better? Feeling so good now. Thank you, Alex.” “Don’t thank me because I’m doing this for myself.” Listening to my words, her brows narrow in confusion. “For yourself?” Grinning at her, I lie down beside her. As I pull her into my arms, she doesn’t resist. Instead, she snuggles up into me. I can feel her warm breath on my chest, which is sending shivers down my spine. I answer her, “I can’t see you in pain, Flower. It hurts me. That’s why I’m ready to do anything to make you feel better.” She lifts her head from my chest an

    Stella’s P.O.V.After cleaning the kitchen which Alex messed up, I’m preparing the breakfast. When I saw him in the mess, I laughed so hard after a long time.

I still can’t believe that Alex stepped into the kitchen for me.Why is he making me feel so special and worthy?Whatever it is, I’m just liking it. For now, I just don’t want to think that he is my stepbrother and what we’re doing is wrong. I just want him to be with me. Because I’m afraid that if he leaves, I’ll fall back into the darkness again.No. No. I can’t deal with that pain again.I don’t even want to think about the incident. Right now, Alex is with me and I’m getting myself back. It’s enough for me.

I can’t take out the image of Stella sitting on the kitchen counter, completely naked, splaying her legs for me.It was such a hot sight.Today, I finally let Stella see how controlling I can be—how much I love to dominate women during sexual encounters. The way she responded and how wet she was, it clearly seemed that she enjoyed being in my control as well.Damn! Stella is driving me crazy. I’m dying to claim her as mine. But I’m still stopping myself because I’m scared. What if Stella regrets this in the future?Although we have already crossed the line, something inside me keeps holding back. Maybe it’s the guilt, the nagging voice in my head telling me this is wrong. Or maybe it’s the fear of losing Stella. She’s not just another woman to me—she’s everything. And if she regrets this, if she sees what we’re doing as a mistake, I don’t think I could handle it.“Alex…” As Stella places his hand on my arm, I jolt back to reality.

You were all 'I'm not hungry,' and now you’re leading the charge to the canteen.”I roll my eyes. “Yeah, well, I changed my mind.”Just as we start descending the stairs, Zoe’s foot slips on the edge of the step. She lets out a startled yelp, her arms flailing as she loses her balance. Immediately, Selena and I catch her before she can fully tumble down.“Whoa! Are you okay?” I ask, steadying her with a firm grip.She grabs my arm, laughing, though her face pales. “Yeah, I’m fine. As usual, I’m getting in trouble.” She winces, leaning a little heavier on us.Selena gives her other arm, and the three of us make it down the stairs more slowly this time.As we near the canteen door, I spot Alex and Sky sitting at a table.

The drive was quiet, but I could feel Stella glancing at me every few minutes.We turn into the long driveway. Stella shifts in her seat and her eyes widen as she takes in the view. The villa sits at the edge of the sand. It has the modern glass-and-wood design. The sound of the ocean is faint, but it’s there, constant and calming.I park the car and glance over at Stella. She’s still staring out the window, her eyes filled with amazement.“Is this yours?” She asks, turning her face towards me with a look of disbelief.I nod, unbuckling my seatbelt. “Yeah. My father gifted me this place a few years ago. Ever since then, it’s been my escape when I need to get away from everything.” I pause, my fingers drumming on the steering wheel. “You’re the first person I’ve brought here.”Stella’s eyes glimmer with something unreadable, and she turns back to look at the villa. “It’s beautiful,”

Her gasp is lost as my mouth finds her neck, and I attack her skin with hungry kisses, sucking and biting, leaving marks that claim her as mine.My hands are everywhere, roaming over her exposed skin. I roughly cup her breasts before squeezing them with a desperation I can’t control. Her nipples harden beneath my touch, and I twist and pinch them, eliciting a sharp cry from her lips.She arches into me, her hands tangled in my hair, pulling me closer as her moans fill the night air, mixing with the sound of crashing waves. Her pleasurable whimpers drive me wild, making me harder.“God, Stella, the way you moan,” I whisper against her skin before capturing her lips again and devouring them hungrily. Our bare chests pressed together, our hearts beating in sync.Her hips buck against me, seeking friction, and with a smirk on my face, I grind my knee bet

Their names are inspired by ours—Ella, taken from Stella’s name, with her golden eyes resembling her mommy’s, and Lexi, from mine, with hazel eyes just like mine. Honestly, it feels like it was just yesterday when I held them in my arms for the first time. They’re growing up so fast that sometimes I feel like pausing the time and cherishing every little moment. Sitting on the sand by the beach, Ella and Lexi laugh in unison as their mother dances crazily in front of them to make them smile, giving me the perfect moment to capture their photo. They look adorable, as always, in their matching onesies and white caps. My little flowers. And their mother, my flower—she isn’t any less stunning. The way she moves with no care in the world and her laughter rings out over the sound of the waves is mesmerising.

Every movement feels like an effort. This month is getting so difficult, but I try to remind myself it’ll be worth it when I finally meet our mini-versions.Alex looks up at me, concern etched in his features as he kneads the arch of my foot. “You okay, Flower? You’ve been so quiet.”I let out a sigh, leaning back against the pillows as I close my eyes for a moment. “It’s just... everything feels so heavy now, Alex. I feel like I’m going to burst sometimes.”He pauses before lifting my foot to give it a soft kiss. “You’re doing amazing, Stella. Just a little longer and we’ll have our mini versions here. And then I’ll be there with you every step of the way.”I’m exhausted, but hearing him say that makes everything feel a little easier. “You know I’m so lucky to have you.” I give him a smile.He slides h

It was our choice to marry on the same day, but it was God’s choice to make us pregnant together. But I’m loving it. Getting pregnant with your bestie is another kind of fun.We laugh as we compare cravings, complain about swollen feet, and talk about our husbands, who bear our mood swings without a single complaint.“You know,” I say between laughs, “my babies only get active when Alex kisses me or when we…” I pause with a smirk, lowering my voice, “You know… when we have sex.”Zoe rolls her eyes. “Lucky you! My baby stays active all the time. I feel them moving all day long.” She rubs her belly with an exaggerated sigh. “And guess what? They’re active even now.”I chuckle, shaking my head. “Well, they’re definitely taking after their mommy—always energetic and never sitting still.”Zoe narrows her eyes in horror and turns her attention to her bump, caressing it. “No, no, lit

Our eyes filled with desire are fixed on each other.I lay her down gently on the bed and stand in front of her before pulling off my shirt. Her gaze grows darker as she watches me, biting her lips in anticipation.As I climb above her, placing my hands on either side of her, her fingers trace my bare chest. “Still can’t believe it—you’re my husband. So damn perfect and hot.”“This hot and perfect man is all yours, Flower.” As I tug the blue ribbon from her hair, her hair tumbles loose, framing her face. She lies beneath me, looking absolutely stunning with a smile on her face.“Yes, mine.” Her eyes glint as her hands slide down to my jeans. When her hand slips inside and squeezes me over my boxers, a groan escapes my throat.“Fuck, Stella.” I clutch the ribbon in my hand as she boldly takes the le

She’s glowing, looking more beautiful than ever. It’s not just the warm sunlight or the way her hair dances in the breeze—it’s the life growing inside her. Not one, but two mini versions of us, created from our love. She’s wearing a simple white crop top paired with a long blue skirt, but she looks ethereal.“You’re staring again,” she says with a smile, her free hand resting on her bare, rounded belly.I grin, shaking my head. “What can I do, Stella? Even before your pregnancy, I couldn’t take my eyes off you. But now…” I glance at her baby bump as I add, “now you’re even more breathtaking. This glow, this beauty—it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen.”As she looks down at her belly, her smile fades slightly. “And here I feel like crying most days because nothing fits me anymore.

There’s an energy about her—a spark in her eyes I haven’t seen in years.As we sit around the table, eating the pasta she made, she clears her throat. I glance up and catch the slight nervousness in her expression.“There’s something I’ve been thinking to tell you both,” she finally speak up, her eyes swaying between me and Alex.I pause, my fork midway to my mouth. “Mom, what is it?”She sets her fork down and looks at me with a smile. “About a month ago, I reconnected with someone from my past… my college sweetheart.”My fork clatters onto my plate as I sit up straighter. “Your college sweetheart?”Mom nods, her cheeks tinged with a blush. “Yes. His name is Henry. We had to separate because my parents forced me to marry your father. But now…” She pauses, her eyes shining with a mix of emotions. “Now we’ve found each other again.

She helped me find myself again and stood strong, even though I know she herself was healing from the trauma of taking someone’s life.Her mother protected Stella by ensuring her name didn’t come up during the police investigation. She lied, claiming that she hit my father in self-defence, which ultimately led to his death.Even though he was a monster, it’s been hard for Stella to accept that she killed someone. But during this time, we’ve become each other’s strength.We’re now living in an apartment I bought near our college. All of my father’s properties were in my name, but I donated them to charity.

For so long, I’ve waited to hear those words from her lips.Suddenly, all my pain disappears, and the only thing I feel is immense satisfaction. Stella’s confession means so much to me. It means she is finally ready to give me her heart completely. She trusts me. She is giving love a second chance.I stop walking, frozen in the moment. All the darkness, the guilt, the fear—it’s still there, but her words make it bearable.I glance down at her in my arms. Did she really say it? Or is my mind playing tricks on me?Carefully, I lower her to the soft sand near the water, the waves lapping gently at the shore, their sound as peaceful as always.I cup her face in my hands, brushing her cheeks with my thumbs. “Say it again, Please, Stella. Say it again.” I request, fixing my eyes on her.Her eyes are filled with immense affection, and she sm
