"Then give me a chance to know the real you."Sage went speechless was he serious.

"It's not that simple."She took a deep breath."Some worlds aren't meant to collide and in our case it's exactly like that.I'm sorry."He was silent for a while that Sage thought he hung up until he spoke.

"I'm not someone who gives up easily Sage,you'll learn that soon enough I always get what I want and having you I will.I promise you that."The line went dead after that Sage sat down on one of the kitchen chairs,she doesn't doubt he always gets what he wants no one in their right mind would say no to him.

    She knew deep down telling Bruno about the boys is the right thing to do but they are worlds apart and he doesn't look like a man who can change a diaper or feed the boys a bottle during the night.Numbers and figures seemed more of his thing.The other day when Sage had been busy cleaning his office she'd come across an empty insulin shot in the bathroom, finding it had left her without a doubt where the boys inherited their diabetes from.It seems they have inherited everything from their father and nothing of hers,stepping out of the shower she wrapped a towel around herself.When she'd seen the newspaper headline on his desk about his engagement Sage had told herself maybe him not knowing about the boys is for the best,he'll get married and start a family of his own soon why should she disrupt that for him.They only had a one night stand it's not like it meant anything,it is better if he doesn't know,better for everyone especially him.He looked at his aunt from across the table the

    "Why?"She wanted to know."You are engaged to a beautiful woman.What do you want from me,I'm a nobody as you can see.Why on earth would a man like you who's so sinfully handsome and sexy go out with me.There's plenty of woman out there who would love to be taken out by you.""Just not you."He said."Yes."She stated firmly."Firstly I'm not engaged and secondly I don't want any other woman except for you.""No!"Sage softly muttered."You don't."He grinned."I think I'm old enough to know what I want.How old are you?"She gaped at him."How rude of you to ask such a question.""I know but enlighten me if you want.""Twenty-two."He held her gaze."I know my height makes me look younger than I actually am some people make that mistake.""You do look young."He admitted."But we both know you're actually a very passionate woman."Sage turned crimson and looked anywhere except at him."Mr Romero it's time to go.I have work tomorrow."She walked over to the door and held it open."So please if you do

    "So when is the wedding.""We haven't decided on a date yet but Luca suggested having something small in a month with only our family present,he said later on we'll have something big.""He's in a hurry to make you his wife."Sage smiled."Do you agree with him.""I think I might be pregnant Sage,I didn't get my period last week or last month either."Sage's eyes grew wide. "And I haven't told Luca yet.""Did you take a test."Sage asked."That's why I came here,so we could do it together I'm kinda scared and don't want to do it alone."Kim took out three pregnancy tests."To be hundred percent sure.""I understand."Sage said."With these two I didn't want to believe it because me and Br-.."Sage stopped herself just in time from telling Kim who the boys true father is."We used protection so it kinda came as a shock when I found out I was pregnant and that too when I had been four months along."Sage took Logan from her."You know where the bathroom is."Kim left and returned a few minutes later

"But I'll deal with it when the time comes.""Do you feel something for him.""No,I don't even really know him.""We both know you don't have to know someone to be drawn to them it just happens we cannot stop it.""I know and like I said I don't know him.""Friend to friend.I don't believe you one bit maybe you do feel something that's why you trying so hard to convince yourself you don't that way you won't have to feel so guilty for wanting th

    "Now you know how I feel."He spat at her."It's a bitter pill to swallow isn't it."Sage wanted to hate him throw something at him but couldn't whatever he says or whatever she does won't change the truth,and even knowing he's cheating on her it won't make her love him less.How ironic life can be."If leaving me is really what you want then fine I won't stop you.I'll raise my kids alone I survived without you before and I will again.Loving you won't stop it will take me a lifetime to get over you and move on,having to live without you will be hard but for the sake of our unborn babies I must.Whether you believe me or not these two lives that are growing inside me are your seeds your blood and that of our sons as well as mine are running through their veins.

    "And now we'll never know won't we."He continued over her."Because Hugo and I share the same DNA both test would prove we are the fathers.There's nothing I'd love more than to be those babies father to get a second chance and experience everything I couldn't with the boys with them,to see you glow from the inside out.""It is your baby."She said desperately."I promise you that."He scoffed."You've no idea how painful it is for me to know my brother could've fathered your baby,a baby that should be ours.I can't even be happy because I don't know if it's mine or not and if you slept with Hugo within three days of sleeping with me then we'll never know who's the father. You took the right of me becoming a father again away,you stole it and for that I'll never forgive you."He walked away from her."Bruno.Wait!Listen to me."When he looked at her again she saw tears glisten in his eyes he truly was hurt and really believes his brother made her pregnant he really does think the baby isn't hi
