MICHAEL'S POV "Micheal it was your mother" "What?"He asked with a confused frown. She stood on her hip,folding her arms to arch a brow at him. "That's not possible"he said letting out an awkward laugh. "Its possible Michael.It happened when you had collapsed that night.After we got home that morning.When we had gone into the kitchen to prepare something for you to have when you came to.She had clearly used that moment to delvuge to me that she would never let our marriage last.And in not so kind terms told me that I was a gold digger, out to get your money and that she wasn't going to let me have my way."she narrated,recalling every moment of the converstaion. His lips pursed as he stood in silence for a few minutes. "How could you accuse my mother for doing something so ghastly as to burn you?"

The days had been merged to one of longing,where her father had gone to work and only came back late at nights when she was asleep before he went back out again in the morning just before she woke up. she had not seen her father in weeks,so on that day she had stationed her teddy bear and gotten a comfy spot on one end of the beat down couch that they had gotten from a yard sale just before her mother had become pregnant and had stayed up all night only to see that her father didn't come home that night.Late nights were normal in her household and

MICHEAL'S POVWhen Jeffery was pulled into the confines of his office, he would have to explain to his best friend why he was still keeping his wife in the dark about his illness.So here he was breaking out in a cold sweat as he thought of how exactly to respond to his question."Micheal?"He called."Jeff, I haven't told her yet" he replied hesitantly. Jeff's hands slammed on the table as he leaned forward abruptly. He sat there unmoving."Why would you do that, Micheal we talked about this. What are you going to do when the signs start showing man? Don't you think she has a right to know about your condition?" he queried."I can't man.No matter how hard I try to, I just can't think of doing it. Just today she thought of leaving me because I didn't believe her claim that my mother had burned her."He defended.Jeff reclined on his chair and arched a brow up at him."Are you serious?"He asked in disbelief. "I know right, why would she even go to such lengths, I know my mum doesn't li

ALINA'S POV When she had woken up, she had found herself surrounded by the four walls of beautifully decorated room filled with flowers. She had raised her arm to put across her eyes as she waited for the wave of headache to pass. She had heard the door open before hearing the voices. His voice stood out the most among the voices. "Oh good she's awake" She heard the familiar voice of the doctor followed by his footsteps. He pulled her arm down and did his examination forcing her to look up at Micheal who stood rigidly behind him. She looked away when he caught her staring up at him. "You're fit as a fiddle "The doctor spoke up oblivious of the tension that was thick in the air. "I'll just have the nurses prepare your discharge papers. Just make sure you take good care of your wife Mr Wheeler" He said and walked away leaving the both of them alone. The silence was deafening. "Am sorry Alina" He spoke first.

He stood in front of him painting profusely."What is it Donald?" he asked, his face wrinkled in a frown.He rounded the table and came up with his tablet in hand. He flipped open his screen, and with a few clicks, revealed a news article with his name on it."BUSINESS MOGUL AND BILLIONAIRE, MICHAEL WHEELER CAUGHT INTERLOCKED IN A PASSIONATE EMBRACE IN A PUBLIC RESTAURANT WITH A MYSTERY WOMAN WHO ISN'THIS WIFE.""What reporter posted this?" he asked, slamming his palms onto the desk causing the objects on the desk to rattle due to the force.

ALINA'S POVEver since Micheal had hired a maid and a chef, she had become so idle and restless. All she did in the house all day now was lounge around until Micheal came home where they would have dinner and talk about his life and seek her advice or her opinion on a matter that was bothering him related to work.She was growing tired of this new routine and dynamic and had woken up extra early that day to clean the house before everyone woke up. She had tiptoed out of bed in the wee hours of the morning, making sure to confirm that the house was eerily quiet before making her way down the stairs to the laundry room where she rallied her mop bucket and cleaning detergents to get to cleaning."What are you doing this late, Alina?"She jerked which caused her grip on the bucket to loosen causing the bucket to fall with a loud clang onto the floor."You startled me!" she cried placing a hand over her chest to still her heart."You're the one sneaking around the house trying to clean at

One of the subsidiaries of his company was undergoing a crisis due to the death of a worker and a proper hazard control as well as compensation for the family.He had spent the whole day trying to negotiate with the bereaved family about their lost family member on how they would be duly compensated. He had been so focused on work that he had gotten a nosebleed while he was sorting through piles of legal agreements and extensions.He was looking forward to soaking in the bath and probably enjoying Alina's company while he was at it.As soon as he had walked into the house, he took a deep breath, taking a whiff of something that was being prepared in the kitchen. His lips widened in a knowing smile. He enjoyed having meals with Alina. And he loved her cooking the most.His eyes searched around the room to find it empty. He frowned. That was weird. He thought.She was usually downstairs catching up on a TV sho

ALINA'S POVThe next morning, things had run so smoothly it was a wonder why they got into arguments in the first place. She had felt so remorseful about accusing him last night that she had gotten up early that morning to prepare something for him before Mrs. Agatha got a whiff of it and shut down her actions.Fortunately, the older woman must have been so tired that she had slept right through breakfast. She had eventually given the woman the day off, looking at how frantic and guilty she looked when she hurried to the kitchen apologizing for oversleeping. Was this how her mother had felt whenever she made a mistake at her employer's house? Her heart softened and without a thought added an extra week on her vacation period, a paid leave. She had advised her to go take good care of her family and to treasure every second of it. Her thoughts drifted to her father who despite being an alcoholic and woman-beater had created memories for her to remember him before things had gotten wors

And her gynecologist had said she was doing extremely well taking care of herself and the baby.She let out a frustrated sigh as a repeat episode of her favourite series came on.The house was relatively lonely and quiet on most days just like they were now.The only solace she had was either reading to her baby or watching a tv show and whenever her mother was less busy she would come over to keep her company.She smiled at the sound of the doorbell and without hesitation padded briskly towards the door without looking at the intercom, un

MICHAEL'S POV.His bag slipped and fell from his hand as he froze in shock.She had on a sly smile."What?" he asked in disbelief."You heard me." She replied, giving him a sly smile."Yes we made a baby that night you came over at my place." She explained.Micheal padded towards the living to see Alina seated in the couch flickering across the TV channels smiling distractedly.He breathed out a sigh of relief. She was out of earshot and thankfully was so engrossed in the TV program that she couldn't have heard anything that had been said a few minutes ago.His hand reached out to clutch her arm and dragged her upwards towards his study. Giving Alina a forced smile when she sent a worried glance their way.Paulina protested all the way till they were safely in his office. "Why are you acting suspiciously?" She said wryly.

ALINA'S POVShe had been shaken up after his mother's visit. But the past three months have been quiet and distant.Micheal had seemed more distant than normal. He had chosen to spend his days at work and he was rarely at home. Even when he was home he was distant, he only spent silent hours eating and once dinner was over he was leaving without so much as a word. She wished he would at least open up and let her know what was bothering him but he was sworn to silence. Everything had relatively stayed normal except her mother visited more often.She had chosen to come to terms with the fact that Alina was pregnant and there was nothing that could be done now.She still didn't like Micheal but she was careful not to be present whenever he got back from work.She was nestled on the couch watching a rerun of the show "housewives of Johannersburg" When the knock sounded on the door.She paused the show and headed to the intercom to see who was knocking.It was a unfamiliar face.She frowne

MICHEAL'S POVA FEW DAYS BEFORE..."Paulina what are you doing here? In my bed?" He asked panicked as he looked under the covers to find that she was wearing nothing underneath.He quickly closed it,wrapping the bedsheets around him sarong style as he jumped out of the bed trying to get some distance away from her. She had on a satisfied smile and he could clearly recognize that smile from all the times they had made love in the past. He chastised himself inwardly for being unable to erase that part of his past and memory."You're the one in my bed " She clarified.His eyes darted around the room and his eyes widened in recognition."How did I get here?" He asked in disbelief."I brought you here. You needed a place to sleep because you were drunk and I couldn't let you drive home like that. So I offered to bring you to my room, and it's a small apartment, I don't have a guest room at the moment. "She stated sitting up and letting the duvet slid down her breasts without the least bit

"Felix stop! Please am begging you" she pleaded, her eyes streaming down with a pool of tears. She felt her body loose all its energy as he inserted himself into her. She was numb to the pain now as he begun to move. She was at the brink of giving up when she heard a voice. His voice guiding her back."Alina, am here. No one is going to hurt you,I promise. Am here now" She heard him speak softly as he shook her slightly until the scene before her had begun to change. The disgusting smile of Felix atop her slowly disappeared and she found herself lying on the bare ground staring into nothingness.She finally opened her eyes to find Micheal's face towering over hers. His forehead were creased in worry as he stared intensely into her eyes. He gave her a warm smile and lifted her up in his arms

"What?"She grimaced in pain."Until I know for sure that that baby in your belly isn't mine,I cannot let you subject an innocent child to those terrible conditions"She gasped in surprise."Excuse me.I decide how I live and where I live.This is kidnapping!"She retorted in a pathetic attempt to reason with him.He scoffed and swerved the wheel towards the other side of the road pulling up on the gravel road leading up to the estate."Micheal,I don't want to live with you!"She cried."Well,unfortunately for you,you have no choice."he addressed,pulling up in front of his gate.Frantic and alarmed,she struggled to open the car door but it was locked."Don't be dramatic Alina.I know you're just pretending to act tough but you truly want to live in my mansion.Besides I took care of you better than any lover that you had "He commented,pressing the button that automatically pulled the gates open.She

MICHEAL'S POV"So what do you do for a living?"Michelle probed.Dinner started out quietly.After Alina had cut herself with the knife unconsciously,Her mother had taken over the kitchen and had finished up the meal instead. The meal was definitely delicious which reinforced the idea about where Alina had gotten her talent for cooking."Micheal?" he looked up to find curious glances directed at him.His smile faded quickly."Yes, ma'am"he responded."I asked you a question,what do you do?"She repeated.His spine straightened as he gave her a proud smile."I run a company ma'am"he answered. She arched a brow up at him."Is that all?she asked,Alina's hand reached out to cover hers."Mum,I think that's enough of the questions.Let's just eat and enjoy this wonderful meal that you made" She stated,staring back at her mother with pleading eyes."I haven't satisfied my curiousity yet,baby.I still have a lot of questions that you need to answer young mister"she said,pointing at him."Okay.Am
