52_ Did You Tamper With The Condom?
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The chains of panic, tightened around Paige and made her think she can't breath. She struggled for oxygen. And the first breath she got she muttered.
"You’ve got to be kidding me." Spranging up from the bed, and dragging the bedsheet with her. She was fighting tears in the back of her eyes. "How…how could the condom have broken? I'm not on any pill."
"You are not?" He tossed back, his voice sounding a little excited which caused Paige to raise her head at him and eye him.
Was that it? Wasn't he going to say anything else? The men she knew would have been panicking by now. Shouldn't he be worried this circumstance could result in a baby? Instead, he just stood there, staring at her with that look she could not understand.
"So you are not on any pills?"
"So you have asked several times."
His eyes ran down her body and Paige swallowed, remembering she was still naked under the sheet. Leo on the other ha

Paige hurried across the busy road to the other side where her boss's car was parked. Her heels clicking hard on the road, and opened the door stepping inside. Her boss was looking out the window. At her presence he turned his head to look at her, and Paige presented her best smile. She still didn't know what Leonardo was doing here, at her apartment. After that night in Montepulciano they had sex, Leo had brought her an after pill which she took. They didn't discuss their mad, passionate sex. Neither did they discuss the condom breaking. It was as if those two things didn't happen. And the next few days, Leo was completely thrown into work, Paige barely saw him. His family was trying to land an european investor which meant all hands on deck was required. And knowing Leo and how much he wanted the company, he put in more effort than was required. Which meant he left early in the morning and returned late at night. Their path barely cros
Four Weeks And A Baby 54_ The Rival
In the elevator, Leo looked down at Paige, feeling tense. He felt like hugging her, kissing her, and doing so much more. It was choking him up inside. Because they were at the office and he could do none of that. Regardless of his behaviors in the past, Leo had never entertained such ideas in the office. Leaning into the elevator, Leo gripped his leather bag tightly and stole a glance at Paige. Paige was hugging one of her arms and smiling sheepishly oblivious to her environment, nor the torment within him. Leo wondered what she was thinking that was making her smile like that. He wanted to be a part of it. If he couldn't kiss her here, he could at least hold her hand, Leo thought as he reached out a hand to touch her when suddenly the elevator doors slid open, Leo retracted his hands. The noise startled Paige, and she turned and caught his stare. Leo swallowed as she turned those happy smiles towards him. Her eyes bright, and her plump li
Four Weeks And A Baby 55_ Suspected Of Being In A Relationship
"You and your boss seem close, are you friends?" Finn said as soon as he sat down in his seat. They were in a restaurant which Paige learned had opened recently. "I'm sure that's not why you brought me here." Paige smiled as she sat down. It has gotten darker since when they left Leo in the parking lot, but the chandeliers in the restaurant made everywhere seem bright. Paige looked around her. Most of the people in the restaurant were beautifully dressed in casual wear. She must admit she was the only one dressed in work clothes. It made her a little uneasy, but that was all. "You are right, that's not why I brought you here." She heard Finn say, and as soon as he finished saying that, he lifted a hand and signaled a waiter to come. When he turned, he smiled at Paige and reached for her hand. Paige withdrew her hand under the table. He stared at her but said nothing. "I have missed you. You left for Italy without informing me. I had wanted to see you."

Leo whooshed out a breath, his hand curling and uncurling around his sterling. Leo was in Paige's neighborhood. His Maybach S600 parked a little further down the street from Paige’s apartment. The color of his car blended in with the night. His windows reflected off light from the street lamps and occasionally from passing vehicles. "You can do this," Leo muttered to himself for the second time that evening. Pulling down the mirror in his car, he checked his tongue and then ran his hand across his hair. He was going to ask Paige out this evening, that was why he was so nervous. He had fixed his appearance thrice since he arrived here. Stepping out of his car, Leo inhaled deeply. Holding a bouquet of red tulips. Some younger girls who were hailing a taxi saw him. One of them pointed at his hand and then whispered to her friend. It was obvious they were gossiping about him, but Leo didn't care, as he walked purposefully towards Paige's apartment.

"What was that about?" "What was what about?" “I don’t know.” Paige threw her hands up in the air. "How about, how all of a sudden you said I should hug you back that it’s the least I can do since I promised you four dates? I hadn't realized you would be requesting for things like that. If I had known…" "You would have declined," Finn said with certainty and calmness that paused Paige. "Yes… maybe that." "That was why I didn’t tell you,"Finn muttered. "Look Paige, I know I shouldn't have made you hug me. It just sorts of happened." By now he was looking so hopeless, Paige didn't want to look at him. "Haven’t you ever loved someone that you so wished, even if for one second they could reciprocate your feelings? Even if it’s just to hug you back. You told me you love your boss. Surely you know whatam talking about.” “I know, but if I let you hug me now, next thing you will be requesting to kiss me. It sort of makes me
Four Weeks And A Baby 58_ You're Beautiful And Tempting
Ready to greet Leo, Paige dashed outside but to her surprise, saw no one. Paige's brows puckered in a frown and she turned around in confusion. That was when she spotted the bouquet of red tulips lying on the front door. How had she missed it? With hesitant steps, Paige walked to the front door and picked it up. Her heart beating wildly against her chest. And searched around for a note, but found none. Again, she turned around in confusion, tulips in hand as though she expected Leo to materialize before her. Once again, she was disappointed. Her baby blue eyes became bright, and she felt like cursing out in frustration. And in that moment of desperation and weakness, and longing, she fished out her phone and dialed Leo's number. He picked up on the first ring. Oblivious to the torment going on within Paige "Hello." His voice low and throaty, and filled with surprise at getting a call from her.

"Oh, my baby." Naomi spread her arms, and Paige rushed into it, sobbing. “Naomi, what am I going to do?" Her friend was gentle with her. "What do you mean? You tell the man, of course." Paige drew away from her friend’s shoulder, wiping her eyes. "I can't do that." "Why not? Aren't you in love with him?" Paige refused to speak. "Paige?" “I’m, but if he finds out am with child, he is going to insist on marrying me." "Why do I get the feeling you don't want that?" Naomi's eyes narrowed. Paige gave a humorless laugh. Trust her friend to read her emotions correctly. "Yes, I don't want that," Paige said, wiping her eyes fiercely. Like a woman whose determination had suddenly been born. "Don't you see it? He feels obligated to marry me. We had one reckless night of passion and I got pregnant. Like the gentleman he is, he feels obligated to take responsibility by offering marriage. I don't begrudge him for want
Four Weeks And A Baby 60_ Are You Pregnant?
Neatly dressed in a champagne-colored three-piece suit, his brown hair sleeked back and away from his face revealing the harsh lines of his face and that out-thrust jaw. Four to five balloons with the inscription ‘get well soon’ held together with the flowers. Paige's mouth dropped open as she recalled she had told him she couldn’t make it to the office because she was sick. Was that why he was here? Because he thought she was sick?" He must have bought those balloons off the street on impulse. It didn’t seem his style. “Are you going to let me in?” His mouth curved to the side with a gentle smile. His voice, low and thick with his accent. “Ah… yes,” Paige blushed and stepped away from the door. Forgetting Finn was inside her apartment. It wasn’t until Leo paused a little farther from the living room with a haunted expression on his face that Paige realized what she had done. She hurried over to Leo immediately, and he turned his head to h

The cool air was gentle and caressed Leo's skin as he stood on the porch watching the beach from their house. He could still hear the merry and laughter coming from inside the house where Paige had taken it upon herself to turn into the family jester. Most of the jokes were told at his expense, Leo hadn't minded as long as it made Paige happy. He had sat through it quietly and would have continued to do so had his mother not recounted one embarrassing moment in his early childhood, Leo wished to God no one will hear about. Embarrassed, he had to come outside to save face. That was where he was, casually sipping his champagne, his cheeks slightly flushed when he felt a presence. Quickly, Leo turned his head only to come face to face with hissiste

There was a strange glint in his eyes. "I'm expected in Italy soon." It took Paige a moment to realize what that meant. "You are leaving?" Paige murmured, unaware of the sadness that had crept into her voice. It must have called to him because his face scrunched up. And his adam's apple bobbed up and down. "Don't say it like am casting you away after one night of sex." "Then how is it?" "You know that's not what it is." Paige squeezed their linked hands, covering it with one of her own and stealing Leo's attention with the trembling of her lips. "We just entered into a relationship and you are already leaving?" What will happen to our relationship when you are gone. You will be in Italy, busy with work while I will be here, what will happen to us. And don't tell me we could go into a long-distance relationship. We've hardly

He pulled away from her then, breathing heavily. His hair was a mess, and his eyes were filled with love, unspent. “Not fair,” he growled. “You are still clothed while I'm naked. It gives you more advantage—"“Then take it off," Paige commanded.His eyes darkened, and he reached out with the intention to pry her off one of two clothes, and with a twist of her body, Paige escaped his arms and ran towards the king-sized bed, laughing when she saw the surprise in his eyes.She felt powerful, naughty, and so in love. Well aware she was teasing him, and that even though it might seem like he was annoyed, he wasn't bothered by it.It felt so good being this way with him. Being able to play with him like this.

Four Weeks And A Baby 66_ Grand Confession
Few minutes later, Paige was inside the ostentatious house. After navigating for a while, and pulling open several empty rooms, she finally found Leonardo upstairs in one of the rooms.Contrary to what Wesley believed, Leo was standing by the window. Which gave a natural view of the outside. One hand in his pocket. He had discarded his jacket and was left only in a white shirt and his pants. He was backing her so Paige couldn't see his face, but he must have sensed her presence because he said without turning, “I thought i told you to gohome, Paige.”Paige stepped inside quietly, closing the door. Waiting for him to face her, but he never did. "I don't want to. I don’t want to go home.”He turned then, his eyes resting on her arms, the tear in the hem of her gown. Her knee, and then finally her belly, and his

Leo studied her intently. She was serious. He frowned. "Very well. Do what you want. Stay in the car if you want. That won’t guarantee i will give you a listening ear."After saying that, Leo signaled his driver to head straight to his house.She relaxed then and Leo realized she had been holding her breath. Which Leo did not understand.Another thing he didn't understand was why was she here? Why was she hellbent on explaining herself? What reason did she think she would give that will change his mind? He wanted to believe there was a good reason for this, but he couldn't think of anything."I'm sorry." Leo hadn't realized he had been staring at her until she said that.He turned his face towards the window. Not wanting her to see how that wo
Four Weeks And A Baby 64 Hotel Hallway
Downstairs, in the half-deserted hotel hallway, Leonardo ran an agitated hand over his hair, puffing out air from his mouth. He felt like smashing his fist into something. Worst, he didn’t feel like that would relieve the pain in his chest. It felt like a large hand was closing in around his heart. And squeezing it tight. How could Paige do this to him? And to think that he asked her before if she was pregnant and she lied through her teeth. She looked him straight in the eyes and lied. Made Leo want to curse out in frustration. What has he done to deserve this? Was he thatdespicable? Shewould rather tell Finn she was pregnant than tellinghim?The father of the child.

Finn stood up from theground,looking so lost. “Does he know? Your boss?" He gestured with his hand. "Does he know you are pregnant?"His green eyes rested on her stomach, and then back to her face. Paige shook her head. “He doesn’t know.” "He doesn’t know?" Finn repeated, his face serious. Paige could feel the wheels turning in his head. He seemed to be thinking hard. Then he ran a hand over his face and planted it on his waist as if coming to a sudden conclusion. "Don't tell him." “What?” “I said don’t tell him.” "You can't be serious!" Paige cried. “Hear me out before you say anything," Finn said, stepping closer to her. Paige knew she hadn’t told Leonardo anything about her pregnancy, she knew she was delaying, but she was going to tell him, eventually. However, what Finn was suggesting was the opposite. He was insinuating she shouldn’t tell Leo at all. He grabbed her hand, and Paige trie
Four Weeks And A Baby 62_ Marry Me, Paige
Finn, who was talking with his friends, tried to call her, but she ignored him and dashed out of the door. "Paige!" Finn called and hurried after her. Immediately she stepped out of the reception which was held in the halls of a fancy hotel. Paige hurried to the nearest hallway. On getting there, she rested her back on the wall, and closed her eyes, clenching her purse tight. Paige was trying to gather herself before Finn reached her. However, she was not successful. Because in the next second Finn's hands were on her shoulders and he was turning her around. "Hey, what's wrong? Look at me," Finn said when Paige wouldn't look at him. Tipping her chin, he looked into her eyes. "Are you crying? Don't cry." Finn cooed. There was something about trying to hold back tears and then someone offering sympathy that suddenly made the tears come faster. That was the case with Paige because immediately Finn cooed that word 'Don't cry.' Not minding sh
