I said, gazing at the door through the mirror.The door went open and Emma came in, all dressed like my chief bridesmaid. She stood at the door for a while, her eyes on mine through the mirror as she made her way to me.I stood up to face her. She looked at me from head to toe, like she's checking me out. Then she gave me this heart warming smile with teary eyes, now she's being so emotional."I didn't know you could be so emotional all the time." I teased, tryi
His Surrogate CHAPTER 1: HEARTBREAK & ONE NIGHT STAND MISTAKE
Zoey's Pov "Hey Emma. I'm so sorry for calling you up, I know you must be busy with some work but I need your help." I said over the phone to my best friend and housemate, Emma. It's my fiance Julian's birthday. I already brought him a cake, but i'm lost on what else to add to it. I'm not that good at buying gifts for males. Emma is an expert since she's been in a couple of relationships, while Julian is my first love and first date. "Seriously, Zoey? You've been with Julian for two years now, and you still don't have any idea how to buy gifts for a male?" Emma said, making me roll my eyes. I'm not ready for her lecture now. Yeah, me and Julian have been dating for close to two years now. And he just engaged me last month, but I am still terrible at buying gifts for males. Not to talk more about my fiance. "Are you helping out or not?" I asked, and I could swear she rolled her eyes at me. "Where are you now?" She asked. "I'm in front of a mall, I just got out after buying the ca
His Surrogate CHAPTER 2: Heartbreak & One Night Stand Mistake 2
Zoey's Pov Some sort of bright light shone through my eyelids, I groaned and tried to hide away from the bright lights. I snuggled into something hard, which is weird. I don't recall my pillow being hard. Plus, my body is restricted by something so heavy like my lungs are crying out to be free. I slowly opened my eyes, but I was met with a body which got me confused. Emma doesn't have such a manly figure. I looked up, my eyes went wide when I saw a peaceful sleeping man. I jolted up and out of his grip that I didn't know I was in. Who is this guy? And what is he doing on my bed? Wait, I can't recall going home last night. I looked around to meet unfamiliar surroundings. Where is this place? I looked down at myself, my eyes almost popped out. Holy shit! I'm naked under the duvet! What the fuck happened? So me and this man actually…nah, it can't be! But how can I be naked next to a stranger that is completely naked? How did all these even happen? I tried recalling all that h
His Surrogate CHAPTER 3: BROKEN AND PREGNANT
Zoey's Pov This past few weeks has been really stressful for me, both physically and mentally. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind, and my life is a mess. Heartbreak is really the worst, I give salutes to all those women out there who had dealt with countless heartbreaks. Julian kept calling me, wanting to sort things out. But I ignored all his calls, and texts. One day he showed up at my doorstep, I gave him an earful and it gave me the courage to throw his engagement ring to his face, and called off our relationship for good. I felt more broken on that day, but Emma comforted me and told me what I did was the best thing. Along with dealing with my heartbreak, I think I've fallen really sick. I've been feeling extremely tired these days, even when I don't stress much at work. I do have regular stomach cramps, thinking it could be my monthly flow but it's not. I find myself feeling so dizzy every now and then, and I happen to be sleeping a lot these days. And I do throw up on
His Surrogate CHAPTER 4: HER BABY'S DADDY IDENTITY: PART 1
Zoey's Pov It's been two days now since I tried to kill my baby, the guilt still haunts me even when I've accepted to keep the baby. I think I'll pass through it some day, maybe when the baby arrives. Emma has really been helpful, mostly with her words of encouragement. She's planning to go for a business trip to Beverly Hills, LA with her company. She wished I could tag along, but I can't leave my job for a two weeks trip. My sick patients needs me more. "Do you think I should carry my bikini along?" Emma asked me. She had dragged me all the way from my room to hers to help her select the clothes she will use for the trip which happens to be the day after tomorrow. I looked up from my laptop to glance at her, she looked thoughtful. My friend can be crazy when it comes to going for trips like this. "Take whatever you need, sweetie." I said, rolling my eyes and focusing back on my laptop. "Okay, but should I take the sexy one?" She asked. I rolled my eyes, and looked at her. Sh
His Surrogate CHAPTER 5: HER BABY'S DADDY IDENTITY: PART 2
Zoey's Pov After Emma gave a knock twice, she opened the door and walked in. I exhaled before following her inside. I felt my tension raising up at the sight of him sitting there, relaxing into his chair at his desk. "You may both take a seat." He offered, gesturing to the seats in front of his desk. He seemed calm in his voice, but his facial expression says a totally different thing. I and Emma both settled in the seats in front of his desk. I don't know, but I can't pull my gaze away from him. Maybe I'm expecting a reaction from him to indicate that he recalls me, but there was none. Or is he pretending not to recall me? "Who are you, and how can I help you?" He asked, resting his arms on his desk. "You don't recall me?" I blurted out, staring straight into his eyes. I don't know what on this planet earth gave me such courage, but I think my curiosity did. Aside from that, it's hard to pull out of his gaze, like it's pulling me to it. "No, I don't. So explain yourself for I
His Surrogate Chapter 6
Zoey's PovIt's been two weeks since our last encounter with that arrogant man, and Emma never brought up the topic like it never really happened, which I find very unlike her.Emma was done with her meeting, which they got the deal. After which we stayed a week, though we wanted to stay more but I had work to go back to or I'll be fired before I know it.Being pregnant isn't easy, it's barely a month gone and the baby is already giving me back cramps. And with a very huge appetite, Emma use to suffer it all when I cried out every evening for ice cream. She would rush down the street and get some for me."Don't blame me, it's all the baby's doing." I always used those words to save myself each time she glared at me."Hi Mr. Hart. How are you doing?" I asked a patient, while waiting to hear his response so I could document it in his folder.Mr. Hart is a diabetic patient, who had a cut on his leg. But due to the fact that he has diabetes, the wound refused to heal and rather made the cu

Zoey's PovI can't believe Rowan Weston called me, and he is in Central City LA, just to see me. Just the thought of that sends shivers down my spine.Am not sure why am feel that way!How did he get my number in the first place?!Well, like he said. He got contacts.Why does he want to see me outta the blue?!If he flew all the way to this place to try and offer me the same offer he made at his office, he will regret ever knowing me.Work hours were over, so I picked up my handbag and made my way outta the hospital to my car. I got in and placed my handbag at the passengers seat. I brought out my phone and quickly texted Emma that I'll home a bit late.I don't want to tell her I'll be meeting up with Rowan. I will first hear what he has to say, then I'll tell her. I started my car and made my way to the venue I texted him.Arriving at the cafe I texted him, I parked at the parking area which seemed empty which was really weird. All my years of knowing this cafe, it's parking area has

Gianna's PovThe sun ray hitting my eyelids made me groan, it's interrupting my beautiful sleep. I turned to hide my face in Bryan's chest, but my hand touched the bed instead.I opened my eyes to see Bryan wasn't on bed. Where did he go? How is he up so early when he always has this habit of waking up late? I'll check what he's up to. I came down from bed and made my way to the bathroom, maybe he's taking is bath. I opened the bathroom door to see it empty, he isn't there. I made my way out of my room and head to the kitchen, maybe he's making breakfast.On entering the kitchen, he wasn't there too. Where could he be then?! Wait! Maybe he has gone for some morning jog.Oh well, I'll just freshen up and make breakfast since I fired my servant out of some foolish furstration. But, I need to call him and know what I'll be making for him.I went back to my room to grab my phone on the lamp stand, beside my bed. On grabbing my phone, I saw some well folded paper under the lamp. What pa
His Surrogate Chapter 37
Rowan's PovI do not know if the location Gianna had given me is correct or not. I mean, the location she had sent to me led me straight to a hill top in a deserted place.I can't even see her, or Zoey!I came down from my car to get a better view of my surroundings, and call Gianna to inform her that I have arrived at the same location she had sent. I brought out my phone and dialed her number, after two rings she picks."Turn to your left." She said as soon as she picked my call.I obeyed her and turned to the left, only to find Zoey in a very bad state and Gianna pointing a gun to her from behind. Terrified that my Zoey is being held by gun point, I ran towards her to save her."If you get any closer, I swear I will shoot!" Gianna yelled, making me stop few inches away from them.I didn't know this was Gianna's true nature! How did she become this version of herself?!"Please Gianna, let her go! This is between the both of us, she has nothing to do with it!" I yelled."True. So tru

Am starting to get all tensed."What could be the problem? Zoey hasn't arrived yet." I whispered to Emma's husband, Gerald who happens to be my best man."I do not know, but I will ask Emma." He whispered back.He calmly came down from the altar and went to where his wife is seated, next to Zoey's mom. He whispered into her ear, and she did same too. Looking all tensed. Suddenly the church doors went open, and Catherine was running in without Zoey.She looked all tensed and crying at the same time, it got me alerted. She ran till she was In front of the alter, then fell to her knees crying more. I rushed down to know what was wrong."What happened? Where is Zoey?" I asked, trying to be as calm as ever.She tried to speak but bursted out crying again, making me all tensed. "Say something a

Rowan's PovI made my way out of the room after sparing a last glance at my daughter. Making my way straight up to Gianna's room. Standing in front of her room, I made to open the door when her conversation got my attention."Yes babe, am sure of it. He is in love with Zoey. I told you I had a guy feeling that those two shared something. But I do not care, I will get my frame once I get married to him. Then end his life, and inherit everything for us." She said.I just froze on that spot after what I heard. She never loved me, all she wants is to kill me?!Oh my God!"We will start our future, and raise our family somewhere far. Just like we planned, my love." She said with a giggle.She never loved me, and she made me believe she did!I had to sacrifice my love to be with her, and all she was going to do is kill me?!I felt this anger rising up inside of me. I opened the door which gave her a fright, and her phone fell to the ground. She looked all tensed on seeing me, I stepped in.

Rowan's Pov"What's wrong with you, Rowan?! These past few days, all you do is drink your senses out! What's all these new behavior about?!" Gianna yelled as soon as she got into my room.I have been a complete mess these past few days. I do nothing but make myself drunk so I would stop my head from thinking about Zoey. When I shut my eyes to sleep, she appears in the curtains of my eyes. Making it so diffcult for me to sleep, so getting drunk do help me."Listen to me Rowan! Am getting sick and tired of your nonsense! You better pull yourself together for tomorrow's pre-wedding shoot, and get yourself ready for our wedding or we are done!" Gianna yelled, storming out of the room.How can I pull myself together when what it wants is Zoey, and I do not understand why?!Why is Zoey driving me crazy like this?!Why am I hurting inside because she isn't close to me?!Fuck!***"Get more closer to her." The photographer instructed me, which I obeyed."Then smile down at her with so much lo

Zoey's Pov"You shouldn't have told Julian anything about my life or present condition!" I yelled at Emma.I am so pissed with her that I had to rush down home as soon as I closed from work. And lucky enough, she was at home."I had to! He is a changed person and wants to come back, and make things right again." Emma said."That doesn't mean you should go about telling strangers about my life!" I yelled."Julian is no stranger. He was your finacee!" Emma half yelled."He was! He was my finacee, making him a stranger!""You are overreacting, Zoey!""Overreacting, you say?!"Can you imagine her right now?!"Just calm down and listen, Zoey. You are in a bad shape, you are broken. You need to move on to heal, and he's the perfect person for that." Emma said, getting me more angry."What right do you have to make such decisions for me?!""Zoey..""You have no rights to make such decisions for me, no right!""I am your best friend, Zoey.""You are my best friend, and housemate. But that doe

Zoey's Pov"What's wrong, dear? You don't like the food? I can make something else for you." Mom said, her eyes on me.It's been three days since I got this discharge from the hospital. Mom and Emma has been really supportive without asking questions, but that doesn't change anything in my life.It only makes it feel worst, and it makes it seem like they pitied me and I don't like it. How am I going to move on from everything if they keep treating me this way with pity?"Dear?""It's not the food mom." I said, not wanting to meet her gaze."Then what is it?" She asked.Should I tell her how I feel?!Maybe it will stop their pity towards me."If it's not the food, then what is it? You know you can always confide in us." Emma said, making me more upset."That's the thing!" I half yelled, hitting the table. "Zoey..""I hate all these pity I see in your eyes and voice! How do you guys expect me to move on when you all sound like this?!" I half yelled.They both stared at me like I've los

Zoey's Pov"Ma'am." A voice came into my head, and then a slight tap on my shoulder. I slowly opened my eyes to see it was the cab driver I boarded from the airport. "We are in front of your house, ma'am." He said, giving way for me to see I am really in front of my house gate.I must have dozed off, after so much crying and headaches."Oh. Sorry." I said."It's okay, ma'am. I'll get your things out of the boot." He said and left.I got out of the car, feeling so empty with this never stopping headache. Am finally back home with so much pain and emptiness in my heart."Here's your luggages, ma'am." The cab driver said, handing me my stuffs."Thank you." I said, collecting my things from him.He entered his cab and left. I sighed tiredly as I made my way through the gate to the main entrance. I gave two knocks on the door. It went open soon by Emma, I could see the surprised look on her face. "Zoey?" She uttered in a rather whisper tune.I ignored her with all the questions I see in
