Lucas' expression darkened slightly, but he kept his tone light. “Well, you should get used to it.” He reached her and smirked. “You know, it’s quite unfortunate for you, missy. I'm going to be your mother’s husband.”Sophie frowned and shook her head vehemently. “You’re not going to ever be my daddy.”Lucas chuckled darkly. “And why is that?”“Because I don’t like you, and my daddy’s name is Aidan Algernon.”Infuriated, he grabbed her arms roughly, wanting to hit her. “Listen here, you little brat—”Before he could finish, a voice called out, “Sophie?”He straightened up, forcing a smile as he turned to see Phoebe standing there. “Aunt Phoebe!” Sophie screamed, running to hug her tightly.Phoebe returned the hug, eyeing Lucas with suspicion. “What’s going on here?”Lucas waved awkwardly. “Hi, I’m Lucas. I was just waiting for Karina. Sophie was keeping me company.”Phoebe’s gaze hardened. “I know who you are. What were you doing?”Lucas shook his head, feigning innocence. “Just tryi
Back at the mansion, Karina finished dressing Aidan’s wound, her hands lingering on his arm a moment longer than necessary. She looked up at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of gratitude and lingering affection."I owe you one," she whispered."You don’t owe me anything," Aidan replied softly. "Just stay safe, Karina."She nodded, the weight of the night’s events settling over her. "I’ll try. Thank you, Aidan."He gave her a reassuring smile, and for a brief moment, everything felt right in the world again.Karina was putting the things back into the first aid box, neatly organizing the gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, bandages, and medical tape. Aidan watched her, his expression softening with each movement she made."I didn't know what made me come here," Aidan began, his voice breaking the silence, "but I did, and I'm happy I was able to save you again."She sighed, her back still to him. "Don't do it again.""I'll keep doing it over and over," he insisted, stepping closer. "I'd ev
Aidan rammed into her, their bodies moving as one, lost in the ecstasy of the moment."Karina, you're everything to me," he groaned, his pace increasing.She couldn't form words, her entire being consumed by the sensations coursing through her. They reached the pinnacle together, their climax a powerful, shared experience that left them both breathless.As they collapsed onto the bed, entwined and exhausted, Aidan whispered against her skin, "This is just the beginning, Karina. I'll never stop proving my love to you."She lay in his arms, her heart pounding, knowing that despite the uncertainty of the future, this moment was theirs to hold on to.After a brief rest, Karina slowly got on top of him, pushing her hair back as she slid down his body. Her fingers found his hardened length, and she began to massage him, her touch both firm and tender. He growled, his hands instinctively grabbing her head as she took him into her mouth."Goodness, Karina," he moaned, his voice raw with desir
Sophie looked concerned but nodded. "Okay, Mommy."Karina thanked Phoebe for spending the night. "I really appreciate you being here, Phoebe."Phoebe waved it off. "No problem at all. I’m glad to help."Karina’s phone rang, and she glanced at the screen, seeing Aidan’s name. She almost swore aloud but caught herself. "I’ll just go freshen up. Join you both in a bit."Sophie smiled. "Okay, Mommy!"Karina turned to Phoebe. "Are you leaving soon?"Phoebe nodded. "In about an hour. I need to get back to campus.""Thanks again, Phoebe," Karina said before heading upstairs.Once in her room, she shredded off her clothes and hurried into the shower. As the warm water cascaded over her, images of last night’s intense moments with Aidan flooded her mind. She gasped softly, feeling the heat rise within her again.Stepping out of the shower, she caught sight of herself in the mirror. Her lips parted as she noticed the marks he had left on her body. Her eyes fixed on a vivid hickey at the side of
Unable to keep up with Gina's silence any longer, Aidan went on, "Though I saw the DNA result which showed Lucas is Sophie's father… but I have been holding onto this tiny hope that I can be her father. I know it's weird but… I can't help it."Gina sighed. "Look, Aidan, you don't need a blood relationship to connect with Sophie. You can be her father because Sophie acknowledges you as her daddy."He smiled, drawing comfort from her words. "That's really huge, Gina. I appreciate it."She reached out to his hand on the table and tapped it in reassurance. "Just forget about anything else and let your heart guide you, Aidan."He nodded. "Thank you." Then he teased her, "But I hope your heart won't guide you to a clubhouse again.""Oh, you're crazy.” She hit him playfully and went on drinking her coffee.A Few Days LaterAmira was happily shopping at a mall, her mood lifted by the pleasant buzz of retail therapy. She hummed a little tune as she picked out a new dress, some accessories, and
Riley seemed to pass out for a moment before jerking back up. She leaned closer, her hands making their way to his chest. "Let's go spend some private time."He gently stopped her, making her take another shot of her drink. Leaning forward, he asked, "Do you know Amira?"Riley roared with laughter. "I know that bitch. She always tries to order me around."Aidan played along, nodding. "Really? What's her deal?""She hates Karina's daughter, Sophie," Riley revealed, a wicked smile on her face.Aidan's brows knitted in genuine concern. "Why?"Riley belched, still smiling. "She found out about Sophie and wants to..." She paused, her words slurring.Aidan leaned in eagerly. "She wanted to what?""She wanted to end..." Riley's head dropped to the counter as she passed out, leaving her sentence unfinished.Aidan groaned in frustration, trying to wake her up, but it was no use. He sat back, his mind racing with the implications of what he had just learned. He felt unsettled and frustrated at
Aidan noticed her movement and chuckled. “Well, I got to know about some wanted criminals. One had a striking semblance to your assistant."Amira gulped, trying to maintain her composure. "You're kidding, right? Lola isn't even from this country. What do you even think of me? I do a good background check before employing anyone."Aidan nodded slowly. "Yeah, I know, honey." He held her face, caressing it roughly. "But, you know, Amira, she definitely looks like one who knows bad people or does bad things. Talking from her outward appearance and attitude."Amira tucked her hair behind her ear, trying to keep cool. "Stop presuming nonsense, Aidan. Lola is different. Besides, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. You know."He smiled and nodded as if acknowledging her words. She smiled back, starting to caress his body. "Did you come to keep me company?" she asked, trying to change the subject, noting his mood seemed to soften.As her fingers trailed his face to his neck, she leaned fo
On a beautiful yet unbalanced spring morning, Karina hurried into the vestibule of the alluring manor, tears cascading down her cheeks. She had gone to pay a visit to her spouse, Aidan, and share the elating news of her pregnancy. However, upon arrival, she witnessed him in a vehement intimacy with a fair-haired woman. Consumed by heartache and unable to even catch a glimpse of the woman, she fled, her emotions in disarray. How could he have betrayed her so heedlessly? Strolling over to a settee, absentmindedly, she closed her eyes and reminisced on the look on his countenance when they first met. It was a mixture of vexation, irritation, and surprise. She could have never fathomed that he would be unfaithful to her after all these years of wholeheartedly committing herself to him. After a moment of suppressing her tears, she composed herself as she heard the sound of a vehicle. Aidan had arrived and she was hoping for a plausible explanation for his actions. She turned around as s
