Stella’s P.O.V.

After visiting the doctor, we head straight to Sky and Zoe’s apartment. Selena, Zoe, and I go into the bedroom, while Sky and Alex stay in the living room.

Zoe and Selena waste no time and pull me onto the bed between them. They exchange a quick look, and then Zoe gives me a curious smile. “So… are you going to tell us what exactly is going on between you and Alex?”

My cheeks flush instantly. I knew we came here for this conversation only.

Before I can answer her, Selena says, “Zoe, we have already seen in the college what’s going on. They both are so much in love. But the question is, how did this happen? Seriously, Stella, the two of you couldn’t be in the same room without arguing about something.“

I let out a laugh, my mind flashing back to all those arguments and sarcastic exchanges, which now feel like distant memories. Alex changed so suddenly. One day, he wasn’t leaving a chance to annoy me, and the next day, he became so sweet to me. I couldn’t digest it

Alex’s P.O.V.We arrive back home after dinner. My burned arm aches like hell, but I try not to let it show because Stella is already worried enough.As we step inside, I see Dad sitting with Stella’s mother on the couch. They both notice me wincing slightly as I move my arm, and their expressions shift immediately to concern.“Alex, what happened to you?” Dad approaches as he notices the bandage.Before I can answer, Stella steps forward. “There… there was a fire in our classroom, and Alex protected me.”Stella’s mother places her hand on my uninjured shoulder. “Thank you, Alex. I can’t even imagine…” Her voice fades off, gratitude clear in her eyes.Dad nods, giving me a proud smile. “That’s brave of you, son. But you need to rest now. Go on, get some sleep.”I turn to head to my room, and Stella follows me. As we reach outside my room, she leans close and whispers, “I’ll come to your room from the balcony after taking a shower.”“I’ll be waiting for you.” I lean in and kiss her ch

    Olivia’s P.O.V.After meeting Alex, I walk to my room. I can’t believe Alex is the son of a monster. He risked his own life to save my daughter. I’m glad he is there for Stella. She deserves a man like Alex, not like my ex-husband or Jackson.As I enter my room, I find Jackson sitting on the sofa, puffing on his cigarette. I know he must be planning to torture me.“Lock the door.” He commands, and I instantly comply because I can’t bear to take his punishment.As I turn after locking the door, his words send shivers down my spine. “You’ll be punished now.”I swallow hard, trying to stay calm as my hands tremble. “What did I do wrong?”“Your daughter has brought trouble into my son’s life,” he sneers. “He wouldn’t be suffering if it weren’t for her.”“It’s not anybody’s fault. You can’t punish me like this,” I complain, although I know he won’t listen to me.He smirks. “Oh? Would you prefer I punish her instead? I have no qualms about that.”His words send a jolt through me, and my eye

But I can’t stay with him because my mom will start to suspect something. I’m not ready to tell her about us yet. I’m scared of how she’ll react, or if she’ll try to keep us apart.I can’t even imagine living without Alex now.Through the balcony, I enter Alex’s room. My chest becomes heavy with pain as I find him wincing in pain, sitting on the sofa. He didn’t get much sleep last night either. Every time he shifted, I could feel his discomfort. I wish I could take away all his pain with a snap of my fingers.I approach him with sadness evident in my eyes. Although he is in pain, he smiles at me and takes my hand in his before gently pulling me onto his lap. “Flower, I’ll be fine. Don’t worry,” he says, placing his hand on my face, his thumb brushing over my cheek.I sigh, letting my fingers trace the bandage on his arm. “Alex, I just can’t stand seeing

She tells me she is home, but she’s taking the time to come to my room, and I haven’t seen her in five hours. It’s pure torture, and this pain in my arm is fucking killing me.Just then, only she slips into my room from the balcony. The second I see her, a smile spreads across my face and the pain almost fades away.“How are you, Alex?” She asks, her face full of concern as she sits beside me on the bed. “Honesty, I wasn’t doing great,” I admit, taking her hand in mine. “But now that you’re here, I’m feeling so much better.” I kiss her knuckles. She smiles and I continue, squeezing her hand and fixing my eyes on her. “You know today, I learned why you’re so sweet and kind.”She looks confused at my words.“It’s because of your mom, Stella. She took such good care of me today, even feeding me like you did last night.” I rub my thumb gently across h

I look at him in shock. “Why?” He lets out a laugh, tapping my nose. "I was just kidding, Stella. Of course, we can have that sandwich. Today, whatever you want, we'll do. It's your day, my love." “Who could’ve thought that the Mr Grumpy would get so sweet one day.” I pull his cheeks, causing him to chuckle. “Now I’m yours Mr NMG.” He leans in and pecks on my cheek, making me grin. Then we head inside and eat sandwiches from the stall. My birthday is already going so amazingly. First, I woke up to my room decorated with so many gifts—it felt like a dream.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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
