Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Aimee POV
This is the fanciest place I have ever been in my life. I think Alec can see that I am a little uncomfortable. I don't really know how to behave in a place like this, this is too luxurious, and the way he is looking at me is making me feel like I could fall on my knees and beg him to be mine. How can I still think like this after everything he did to me? I shake my head slightly and focus on his beautiful plump lips as he asks me how Ash is doing. The way his throat moves as he drinks his wine makes my stomach flutter. I look into his eyes, distracting myself from his throat, but his blue eyes focus on mine, making me feel breathless. I force a small smile telling him that Ash went to rehab and he will be okay.
"Thank you", I let out as he frowns, looking at me. I am taken aback by his eyes locked on me. Alec asks me for what I am thanking him. I can't help but think he is taking a laugh. I look at my shaking

Alec POV I offer Aimee my hand, and she takes it. Without another word, I guide her toward my room. I can tell she is nervous, but I can’t wait any longer. I need her, and I want her to fall head over heels for me so I can hurt her as much as she hurt me. She will regret that party, and she will regret the day she betrayed me. I shake my head, pushing away those intrusive thoughts, and I open my bedroom door. The light is off, and the moon illuminates the room. I turn around, closing the door behind us and facing Aimee. She’s looking up at me, and she offers me a shy smile. My heart breaks into a thousand pieces. This is the same girl I fell completely and utterly in love years ago. This is the girl that broke my heart and never apologised for it. This is the girl that still makes my heart flutter and makes me want to protect her and cradle her in my arms until she falls asleep. I take one step closer to her, and she r
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 20 - After ten years part 2
Aimee POVI roll to my side cuddling up to myself hugging my own legs against my chest. I close my eyes to avoid spilling the tears that are threatening to spill as Alec locks himself in the bathroom. He used me like he said he would, he said he was going to claim me, make me his, but he didn’t promise me love, he didn’t promise to love me. How could I have allowed myself to be in this situation? I look at my hand and I see the big engagement ring. I take it off and put it on the bedside table.I feel the tears spilling down my cheeks. I close my eyes and allow my sorrow to lul me to sleep, to feel sorry for myself for still love a man that doesn’t care about me, for love a man that only wants to use me for his own benefits.I must’ve fallen asleep because when I open my eyes Alec is laying next to me with his hand over my stomach. His breathing is soothing and calm. He is deep asleep. I tr
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 21 - Revelations
Alec POV I don’t know what is taking over me, but I can’t keep my hands away from her, she is delicious, and after last night I can’t stop thinking about how sweet her taste is, how her body erupts underneath me, how she moves at the same rhythm as I do. I need more, and I am addicted, just as if she is my own personal drug. I need her to breathe, to survive. I don’t like to admit this, and she hurt me more than anyone ever before, but fuck, she is amazing. And the way she looked at me. “Open up for me, baby”, I tell her as I trap her against the kitchen island. Her chest moved up and down fast as her eyes locked on mine, and she told me to stop. What a tease. I know she wants me, I know she wants more, I can give her more. I kiss her neck with open mouth, I want her marked, so everyone knows she is mine, so everyone knows that she has been fucked by me, by someone that is capable of giving her the biggest and best org
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 22 - Brain dead
Aimee POV It’s been two weeks since the proposal, and we are living independent lives while living together. I can barely look at Alec, and he hasn’t made any effort to talk to me either. I rest my head on my hands, looking at my laptop as I take a deep breath. I am late on a piece I should’ve delivered yesterday. But I can’t focus. All I can think about is Alec and how upset I am with him. How can he be like that? How can he pretend he doesn’t remember about that night and what his best friend did to me. “Aimee, a word”, I hear a deep voice behind me, and I feel a chill down my spine. Alec, what is he doing here? I raise my head and spin my chair around, looking at him, standing in front of me, in his tailored dark blue suit that makes his eyes pop. “Sure”, I reply, forcing a smile. He grabs my hand as we walk down the corridor. How does he know where to go? He opens a door at the end of the corridor and pulls me inside. As soon as the door closes behind us, I let go of his hand a
Pretend Girlfriend chapter 23 - What Happened
Alec POV“We will be going for dinner today with the wedding planner because you have been in this stupid fight with me. I hired someone, she will be taking you to dress shopping tomorrow, and we will be getting married in two weeks”, I let out, expecting a full-on burst of rage coming from Aimee, but she only frowns before she repeats the two weeks asking if I am insane. She even makes a joke about people thinking she would be pregnant. Well, would that be that bad? She thinks people will call her a Gold Dig, but hey, I am paying her for this wedding at the end of the day. I am paying her for all of this. She is mine. She will be mine, in two weeks.“And you are, you are doing this for money”, I spit out, feeling anger rising inside of me. Why does she have to make everything harder?“It’s not like you are a fucking saint. You have your own fucking reasons. I need to go back to work”, She tells me, but I don’t let
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 23 - Death hits hard
Alec POV “Come on, baby lay down”, I whisper as I put Aimee on the bed after a quick shower. Her hair is still damp, but at this point, I don’t care. Aimee hasn’t spoken to me in hours, and I still don’t know what happened except that the guy didn’t hurt her. He didn’t touch her. He refused to tell me what was going on. After I got Aimee to come with me, he left without saying another word. I close my eyes as I sit on the armchair next to the bed while she looks at me with puffy red eyes. She hasn’t said a word, and I am really worried about her. I take my phone from my pocket and dial a doctor's number. I always have the family doctor on call. He answers after two rings, and I immediately tell him to come by. Aimee is not well, and I don’t know what to do. I sit there next to her for what feels like hours until the doctor arrives and asks me to leave the room so he can examine her. I shake my head. I am not going anywhere, and he can fuck off for all that I care. “So?” I ask as
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 24 - Till Death do us part
Aimee POVToday is my wedding day. I can’t believe this is happening. I look at myself in the mirror wearing my white dress. I look like a model wearing this dress. It is beautiful, but it definitely wouldn’t be something I would choose for myself.“Oh my God”, I hear Stella behind me. I turn around, and she is standing at the door with her hands covering her mouth and her eyes wide open, “You look stunning”, she says, walking in and closing the door behind her. I can see the tears in her eyes.“Really?” I ask, not really sure about the dress. I know it is a beautiful white ball gown with a fitted bodice and a full skirt. The details around the skirt make it look like it was made for a princess. This must-have cost a fortune.“I am speechless, and you are stunning. Alec is going to die when he sees you wal
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 25 - Till death do us part part 2
Alec POV I sit on the bed and rest my feet on the floor looking out of the window. I pass my hands through my hair and slowly come to a stand. Today is my wedding day and I am nervous. I never thought this day would come, especially with Aimee. I shake my head and walk into the bathroom where I rest my hands on the sink and lean in looking at my image in the mirror. Aimee has been keeping herself away from me, since we signed the papers for the pre-nut and the contract she looks at me as if I have three heads. She hates my guts. I haven’t been able to touch her as she came again with the not touching her nonsense again. She still hasn’t told me who touched her, who did that to her, who destroyed her soul. I shrug looking at my image and I turn the shower on. Hot water might help with the nerves and I was right. As soon as the hot water kisses my skin I feel instantly relax. As I close my eyes I see her face when we were delivering the money. The guy was scary, I’m not even gonna l

Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 50 - The end
Epilogue Today is the big day. After she knocks on the door, Mum walks into the room I am staying in the hotel. I bring my glass with the amber liquid to my lips as I taste it. I have never been so stressed and nervous in my life. This is not our first wedding, but this is the real deal. This is the one, the one that will keep us tied together for the rest of our lives, the one we will rip all the contracts that were signed, and we will just sign a will leaving everything to our children. That is it. Mum walks to the liquor cart and pours himself a drink as she sits next to me, crossing her legs as we look out of the big window. We are having a small affair in the countryside. Aimee said she always dreamed of a spring wedding in a beautiful place outside, so that’s what she’s having. She has everything she has ever wanted. No, look at the expenses. “How are you feeling, son?” mum asks, breaking the silence. I look at her and smile softly. She is looking older, and she has aged a
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 49 - Church
Alec POV I closed my eyes, shaking my head, sitting on the edge of the bed while Aimee finished zipping up her black dress. As soon as she’s done, she walks to me and kneels in front of me with her hands on my face. I look into her eyes, and I see it. I know the pain she is feeling. The same pain I am feeling. “Are you okay?” she asks, shaking my head. I haven’t been able to shed a tear, but Aimee has been crying for the both of us. “No, I am not”, I let out under my breath. Aimee leans in closer and kisses me on the lips, and I close my eyes, feeling her proximity. “Mrs Hardy, they are ready”, The nanny says through the closed door. “I’ll be right there”, Aimee replies as she stands up and grabs her shoes. Before leaving the room, she looks back at me, closing the door behind her. I sink my face between my hands and allow the sorrow to take over. After a while, I stand up and look at my reflection in the mirror. I adjust my black tie and my black suit and walk out of the room
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 48 - Surprise
Aimee POVMy entire body is sore, and today we have Abbey spending the day with the twins while we deal with the shit show that has become our personal life. Today is Paul’s trial, and both Alec and I are witnesses in the case. His wife asked for a divorce and was granted it straight away, and she moved to Scotland with her children. I can’t blame her, and she said she doesn’t want to be around him or anything that reminds her of the hard time he put her through. “Are you ready?” I ask as I walk into Alec’s office. He raises his head from whatever he looks at and gives me a slight nod. I walk around his desk as he pulls back, giving room for me to sit on his lap. I look at his desk, and I see the photo album from the university. Photos of the three of us together, and then one photo of them as children. Paul in a bike as Alec was on top of his skate, both of them laughing as they were racing. I feel my chest get tighter at the suffering this day is bringing to my Alec. I have a surpr
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 47 - Sex
Alec POV “Alec… Alec”, I hear Aimee whispering next to me. I open my eyes and jump out of bed. “What? What happened?” I ask, looking around the dark room, and I can hear the soft giggle coming from Aimee. “Be quiet”, she says, and I nod my head looking at her, she is smiling, and I can’t believe I nailed a girl like her, beautiful, intelligent and caring. “What happened?” I ask as I sit back on the bed, passing my hands through my hair. “Can you hear that?”, She asks, and I look around the room, trying to find the source of noise she is asking about. I frown as I try to hear anything. “Nope, what is it?” I ask, and Aimee wraps her arms from behind on my neck and kisses my cheek. “Silence, they are asleep”, she says, and I turn around, wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her to me. She giggles as I pull her to bed and hover over her. Aimee looks me in the eyes, and I can see the heat in them. It’s been months since we last been alone together, and I am craving her l
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 46 - Waking up
Alec POV I try to open my eyes but it’s hard, heavy, I force myself to open them and I am hit instantly by.a bright light that makes me close them immediately. It’s too bright. Slowly I open them, trying to get them used to the light and when I do I look around trying to figure out where I am. It’s a white clean room, I can hear a lot of beeping sounds. I can’t really move as pain irradiates through my body as I try to. I close my eyes again and pray for the pain to go away. The door opens and I hear steps into the room. I open my eyes again and I see a lady dressed in blue. She looks at me and smiles. “Welcome back Mr Hardy”, she says and I look around, I try to speak but my throat is dry and so is my mouth, I feel like it is full of sand. I look around and find a cup with water next to me. She smiles and walks to be offering the cup taking it to my lips. I gulp a little and drink some water relieving the pain on my throat. I look around but I can’t see anyone waiting for me. I bl

Alec POV“Don’t hurt the babies”, I let out in panic as Alec starts laughing looking at Aimee. Then he looks down between them as he is straddling her and he winces, I frown watching the scenario in front of me as he pulls her hair back again laughing out. He looks deranged, he really looks like he has lost the plot and I don’t know how to get to him.“I guess your babies will be meeting their maker sooner than what we thought”, Paul barks at me and I can see Aimee crying in pain as he keeps pulling her hair. I take a couple of steps closer still showing him my hands in surrender. And I decide it is time to negotiate with him. The police is taking way too long to get here. That is if Amber really called them. Is she in this with him? Panic strikes over me as I offer to switch places with Aimee, ill stay here with him and Aimee will go. Paul stands up pulling Aimee with him and I can see the wet patch on her leggings. Her waters broke
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 44 - Danger part 2
Aimee POV “Where do you want the blankets?”, Abbey asks as she folds the blankets we bought last week. I smile looking at her as I tell her to put on the third drawer of the changing unit. She nods her head and smiles as I keep making the beds. I place the fitted sheet on the cot and smile looking at it. We decided we didn’t want to find out the sex of the babies. So everything is white, yellow, green and grey. The nursery is decorated with Dumbo things as it is very neutral. “I have something for you”, Abbey says and I turn to face her. She passes me a small blanket, and I smile. It has Alec engraved in it. I open the blanket and stare at it. It’s beautiful. “Oh abbey, this is beautiful”, I say and she smiles resting one hand over her heart. “It would mean the words to us if the babies could use it”, Abbey says and I nod my head. Agreeing they will both use it, it’s beautiful and it’s their father’s so we will keep it safe and use with the babies. I know Alec will love it, and
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 43 - Danger
Alec POV Aimee has been dealing with the pregnancy like a hero. She is my hero to be honest. She is the most amazing woman I have ever met. She has been staying at home the last couple of weeks, she has been cleaning and tidying up and making everything nice for the babies arrival. The new house is ready and we are moving in next week. She made the nursery just the way she wanted, I wanted two, one of each baby and she told me I am insane, they can share apparently. I just want them to have their own room, but she claims that twins need to stick together, they have a bond we will never be able to understand. “Mr Hardy, there’s someone here to see you”, I hear my new secretary’s voice chime through the phone. I ask her who it is and she says it is Amber Bass. I roll my eyes and pinch the bridge of my nose. I haven’t seen her in ages, since her husband tried to rape my wife, again. I close my hands into fists and take a deep breath. I don’t know what she wants but I am not happy about
Pretend Girlfriend Chapter 42 - Going back to reality
Aimee POV “Alec, there’s no need for that, we are both adults and perfectly capable of sharing a bed”, I let out and he nods his head as his eyes focus on his hands on his lap. I can’t believe he is nervous about sharing a bed. I know its been a while but we can share a bed and not do anything. After all we are both grown ups and we can control ourselves. Alec walks to my small bedroom with me and he stops at the door. He then walks in behind me and sits on the edge of the bed as I get comfortable on the left side of the bed. I pull the duvet up to my chest and look at him as he lays on top of it. I turn to my side facing him and he turns his head to look at me. His hands resting on his stomach. “Alec, you’re gonna get cold”, I whisper and he shakes his head. He then takes a deep breath and closes his eyes as if forcing himself to stay still. “I should sleep somewhere else, you need to rest”, he let’s out as he is about to stand up. I grad his arm and his eyes meet mine. I shake
