Sean was on the phone on the living room balcony while I was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. I was baking bread when suddenly morning sickness attacked me. I turned off the stove and then shifted to the sink. Sean’s hands immediately massaged the nape of my neck while I was still vomiting in the sink. I straightened my body when the nausea was gone. Sean was standing before me, his gaze serious and careful, dammit! Maybe it’s time.

After our hot shower a while ago, we dressed and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. Still, I wasn’t planning on starting this conversation.

“Is there something you didn’t tell me?”

My hands rested on the edge of the sink. I nodded while looking down, mentally steeling myself to say this. My Inner Goddess squeezed the bottom of her dress, her expression tense.

“I’m pregnant,” I said, then raised my face to look at Sean. He was shocked, and his golden net seemed to harden; the next second, he turned away from me while combing his hair; he cursed an

    Ronald went to the kitchen to get a snack. While I turned on the television, my cell phone, which I placed on the table before me, rang, showing a foreign number. When I was about to answer, the ringing stopped; I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly and then put the thing back in its original place. Ronald brought me a potato chip snack with barbecue seasoning, a cola drink, and canned orange juice. We watched a replay of Roger Federer's match at Wimbledon, which had just ended in England. Caroline came with Andrew an hour later, the couple joining us in the living room."Where's Sean?"Caroline looked at me with a curious, questioning look. I put the potato chips in my mouth while shrugging my shoulders. I wasn't in the mood to care about her. Caroline stared at me with narrowed eyes as I glanced at her before returning to the broadcast of the tennis match that was still happening. Ronald didn't seem to care; he was focused on watching the game. I went from the living room to the kitc

    When I woke up on Monday morning, the room seemed deserted; Sean’s side of the bed was empty, leaving me alone on the bed. I closed my eyes, feeling disappointed; why is Sean behaving like this?? The disappointment needle stabbed more deeply into my heart, and it hurt. I got up, got out of bed, and rushed to shower. After that, I dressed, wearing black mesh stockings with a coat the same color as my stockings, a belt around my waist, and maroon ankle boots. I pulled my hair up slightly, then grabbed my handbag, the same color as my shoes. Sean came in when I was ready. I bowed and then walked away, but he grabbed my arm as I was about to pass him.“Change your stockings,” he ordered, which I immediately rewarded with a look of surprise and protest.“No, I’m leaving now,” I said and tried to let go of his grip on my arm, but he strengthened it.“I won’t let you out until you change your stockings.”I chuckle while rolling my eyes. Are we going to argue about stockings now?? Oh, Lord! I

    “You keep your distance,” I began, my eyes staring at the thick carpet covering the floor of this room when Sean breathed heavily.“Why are you doing this???” he asked, which made me look at him in disbelief. He’s still blaming me, damn Thanos and his infinity gauntlet.“Am I the only one to blame for this pregnancy? You’re selfish, Sean, this pregnancy happened not only because of me but also because of you!!”I’m angry and sad at the same time. Can’t Sean see this as something we do together?? Wasn’t it someone’s fault?? We stared at each other silently, his jaw clenched as he let out a sharp breath.“Can’t you be open minded??”“Open?? Look at me, Ariana, do I deserve to be a father figure?? Will the child accept a father like me??”The question took me aback; I now understand that attitude again. I chuckled and then snorted. My Inner Goddess’s shield felt like it was hit by a big club, causing a loud thud, and the vibrations spread throughout my nerves.“Until when are you going t

    Sean and I sat on the sofa in front of the television, watching a cartoon called Trolls after Renata left five minutes ago. She wanted to move the broadcast, but I insisted she didn’t. I love seeing those colorful mini creatures. I think they are soft and adorable. I lay on the sofa cushions on Sean’s lap. I couldn’t take my eyes off the film. I felt Sean move; when I turned my attention to him, he seemed to fall asleep with his head on the top of the sofa.I slowly got up, removed the pillow from his lap, and leaned closer to him, looking at his sleeping face. He is very handsome. His face is very thick with the typical face of Middle Eastern men: thick eyebrows, sharp nose, firm jaw, and sharp but seductive eyes. Don’t forget those sexy red lips. I’m admiring my husband, and it’s like a sin, but I want to do it. I touched his jaw, which was covered with fine hair, feeling rough because my touch stopped on his chin under his lips after shaving. The chewy thing was as tempting as a st

    “People will leave but the memories will stay.”Author POVWhile clutching the graveyard that had just buried the person she loved most, Ariana stared at the tombstone bearing her mother’s name. He gently caressed the tombstone’s surface engraved with the name of the figure who had given her a love she had never counted. Her lips showed a smile as if she looked strong and determined to accept this fact, but deep inside her, that emptiness occupied one of the spaces in her heart, a space that her mother’s love had filled.Ariana left the funeral after saying goodbye to her mother’s grave; her husband Sean, faithfully accompanying her, strengthened her and became her support. They immediately headed to her mother’s house, Ariana’s old house, where all the memories of some of the life she lived with her mother dwelled. When Ariana and Sean arrived at the house, the guests who came gave hugs and condolences to Ariana. After that, she rushed to her mother’s room.The room seemed empty with

    It is progress; should we consult Merlin’s doctor before we leave?? My senses raised a brow approving the idea, while my Inner Goddess shrugged her shoulders with her ‘Whatever’ expression.“Shouldn’t we see Doctor Merlin before we go?” I suggested, and he paused momentarily before nodding in the affirmative. I smiled weakly, and then his lips fell on mine. We kissed softly and unhurriedly and stopped when our lungs felt like running out of oxygen.“You are everything to me, Ariana; you are my love, my life, my passion, and all the things I need in this world; you are my new hope,” he said, which made his golden eyes glow with the love and joy he had for me.“You are also my new hope,” I replied with a smile; he was also my everything; we were sewn like a cloth, and he was like my sun and moon, my day and night, my spring and winter. Everything feels like spring, lovely, warm, and bright when I’m with him, but when he’s not with me, the world is cold and dark without the sun.“I want

    I looked at my fingers that I was intertwined; it wasn’t without my intention to go there; there was someone who made me want to go there.“You want to come to New York with me?? What for?? You have important business there??”Ronald bombarded me with questions; I nodded nervously.“Hey, what is this?? Why don’t you just go with Sean??”And this is the real problem: the man is in New York right now, and I want to follow him there without his knowledge; something has made me suspicious lately.“He’s in New York right now, I want to go check something out.”I turned my face to look at Ronald. He looked at me confused, but I could see him trying to guess the problem I was having right now. Should I tell him?? Oh, my God, since Caroline married, we haven’t seen each other often.“What’s wrong?? There must be something going on between you two,” Ronald guessed, and his gaze said ‘tell me now’ just like Caroline when she demanded an explanation from me. I exhaled heavily; I think I need som

    Atika touched Sean’s face with the tips of her fingers; my chest tightened because of the pain that slowly spread to fill me. The next second, Atika kissed Sean on the lips; I covered my mouth with both hands in surprise. Tears immediately rolled down my cheeks behind the sunglasses I wore. Damn, Sean! Why didn’t he refuse?? My cracked heart slowly shattered; I suddenly stood up from my seat. Sean just stood still after Atika kissed him. I was also glued to my place; I don’t know what made Sean turn to me. He looked surprised to see me, and so did Atika. My senses immediately sounded the alarm, so I immediately realized and left that place; the next second, I immediately turned around and left.I crossed to the other side of the road. After walking a few steps, I immediately stopped the taxi and called Central Park, took off my glasses, and then put my elbow on the arm of the taxi door. My tears were like Niagara Falls. I stared at the city view with a gaze blocked by tears. My heart

    Five years Later. Enjoy the view that is currently visible in our backyard. Sean is enjoying his role as a father to our son, Danish, who is five years old; they are playing with their potato gun. Sean taught our son many things, and it’s no wonder that Danish could accept everything his father taught him, even though he could improvise well. I smiled through the kitchen window as I watched Sean act out a shot from Danish, dramatic and ridiculous. He dropped his body on the grass garden while placing one hand on the part of his heart because the bullet hit it. Danish approached Sean and then dropped his tiny body onto the man’s body. Sean hugged him, and they laughed together; my smile grew wider, seeing the behavior of the two of them.“Mrs Valentino, lunch is ready.” Mrs. Liam interrupts my time enjoying the good stuff. I approached them and invited them to lunch from the kitchen to the backyard. Danish ran towards me as I came to the father and son; I lowered myself so that I was

    I smiled as I closed my eyes; it seemed like he wanted to tell me something tonight. My Inner Goddess pulled her fur blanket up to her neck, ready to listen to a bedtime story from Sean Valentino.“Really?? I feel so married to a man who has everything like you; all men dream of being in your position. You are exceptional in the eyes of the world and mine.” My sleepiness was fighting with my consciousness; Sean inhaled the scent of my hair and buried his nose in mine, one of his arms wrapped around me like a vine.“Only my current life that many people want, before this, I was just an outcast with nothing, I didn’t even have the courage to approach you when we were children, and until now I will not be able to experience this happy life. If it weren’t for you wanting to marry me.”My life before meeting him was very different; it never crossed my mind to marry a man like Sean. My criteria are only about my life. I smiled as I thanked myself for this beautiful life.“I still want to kn

    Shaking hands with Sean, Detective Charlie sat on the sofa across from us. He has a firm face; I’m sure people must respect him because his attitude currently looks formal and doesn’t seem very friendly. Perhaps people who work like him must behave in front of clients like today so that people provide correct information.“All the evidence submitted by your personal assistant has been investigated by us and we are connecting it with the existing case, we are very pleased with you providing accurate evidence, Mr Valentino.”“Then, what made the detective come here??”I glanced at Sean, who seemed to have an intimidating face on him. Detective Charlie cleared his throat, trying not to be affected by the stern look on Sean’s face, but it seemed my black and white knight was very good at this. My Inner Goddess looked tensed on her red sofa like I was.“The perpetrator said that your wife ... I mean Mrs Valentino, had contact with the perpetrator while still a professional.” Detective Char

    My mother-in-law approached me, half running; Rani and my father-in-law were behind her. I got up from my seat and immediately hugged Mama Ramia. She started crying. She ended her hug and checked my condition, her eyes wet with tears.“How are you?? Are you hurt?? How is the baby?? Is he safe??”Panic and fear were so evident in her questions that I replied I was okay, and he was a little relieved by that. My father-in-law also hugged me; after that Rani, she sobbed on my shoulder.“He’ll be fine.” I tried to sound okay in responding to the current situation. Still, unfortunately, I failed to look strong in Rani’s eyes, just the opposite. We sat on the bench I had sat on a moment ago, my brain replaying our memories together this morning in the kitchen. I can still clearly remember everything we went through so far: all those laughs, his seductive gaze, his smile that could make women in this world melt, and all his ego and attitude that turned my world upside down. All those exciting

    It was Sean’s voice. I was too late to escape; Ariel immediately locked my neck using his arm.“If you make a sound, this gun will expel your fetus in a lifeless state.” He put the muzzle of his gun behind my stomach. Sean appeared along with Sam and Jared; his gaze turned threatening; he just looked at me for a split second, then looked back at Ariel.“One step means one shot,” Ariel said; my body was trapped in an ice block. Sean ordered Jared to bring Joana’s body immediately; the man lifted Joana and left this tense situation. While Sam checked Zafrina’s condition and then carried the woman’s body away from this place, there were only three of us now.“You have to pay for what you did to my father.”“My business with your father is finished, besides he can’t pay his debt to me, isn’t it all because of you? I know what you’re doing, Ariel.”Calm and seemingly in control, though I could see the fear in his eyes clouded by his vigilance. Ariel laughed; that sounded mocking. This man

    “Everything is alright?” the girl asked as she entered my workspace. “Please tell Carlos, I need some hot chocolate milk before I go to a meeting, I haven’t had breakfast yet.”Joana swiftly left, regretful for wasting my time this morning with that silly thing with Sean overtaking me, but I enjoyed it. I smiled again. Carlos came with a glass of warm chocolate milk; he smiled kindly at me before leaving my room. I dropped my ass into a soft leather chair, drank my chocolate milk up to half a glass, and left my room to attend a meeting. Joana and I got out of the elevator. When we got to the floor of the meeting room, a man who was the janitor of this building was cleaning the floor using a vacuum cleaner; at first glance, I seemed to recognize the man. Joana turned my attention to the topic of today’s meeting; when I entered the meeting room, all the financial staff of this foundation were already present. I immediately started the meeting, which I had postponed due to my lateness.

    “Ana... honey.”I felt someone shake my body. I opened my eyes and stared greedily at Sean’s face, which was only inches from mine.“Oh, Sean, I-I....”The cry came out, along with the fear that overtook me at this moment. Sean calmed me down by kissing my forehead.“Relax, I’m here with you, you’re safe.”I tried to stop the crying and calm myself from the damn nightmare. Ariel is a threat that cannot be underestimated; Sean wipes the tears on my face.“What’s the time now??” I distract myself from the bad feeling after the nightmare.“Five in the afternoon, you slept for about two hours.”Sean got up from his current position on top of me.“I’ll get some water,” he said before leaving. I just nodded. Leaning on the headboard with the pillow behind me, I remembered the nightmare I had a moment ago. It was just a dream; maybe I was too worried about its existence. However, I can’t deny that the man is a threat that could turn into a horrible thing at any moment. I closed my eyes and e

    I reassured him by nodding, his lips finding mine, kissing me passionately, and then we were carried away by the kiss. My hands are behind his head, stroking his hair while he presses the nape of my neck to deepen our kiss. My desire is shaking because of this kiss. I want this man more than anything; he is only for me and mine. I close my body towards him until I climb on his lap. His fingers nimbly unbutton my blazer one by one, then unbutton my satin shirt. Our kiss broke when my bra still covered both of my breasts. His face immediately buried between my breasts, inhaling my scent greedily.I held back my moans as his tongue brushed against the mound of my breasts, biting my lip to keep my cries from escaping and embarrassing me because Sam could have heard me. He also unhooked the bra that was in front. Passion stabbed deep into my core at the groin as the top of my breast was in his mouth, and one hand squeezed my other breast.Unlucky! I’ll reach my peak in a minute, his free h

    I just finished a meeting with the business people who took part in running this foundation. I was surprised by the presence of someone. Phillip was here and became one of the team of experts for this foundation. Shaking my hand, he smiled at me, a smile that never changed, and that smile that made me fall in love with him and feel unrequited love.“How are you??” he asked, looking at me with his charming smile, but Sean’s smile was still more dazzling; my Inner Goddess smiled lopsidedly in response to my words.“I’m good, thank you for everything you do for this foundation,” I said sincerely.“I am happy to be able to work with your husband, he is a very competent and noble-hearted person, this foundation would not exist if not for him.”I agree with that statement; Sean is one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs who is generous and has a foundation that establishes hospitals, schools, orphanages, colleges, and rehabilitation centers for people who have experienced trauma due to being vi
