Mikhail is a spitting image of his mother.

The only difference is, his eyes are a darker shade. His mother's eyes were a lighter, brighter brown. But, other than that, he's a carbon copy of her.

"What are you doing here?" He asked, shock written all over his face.

"Can't a mother drop by her son's place, unannounced, without raising an alarm?"

He shook his head, "Of course you can. I just wasn't expecting you."

"Well, you can expect me more often. This place is gorgeous, Mishka."

"Thanks. Come in, Mom."

His mother stepped inside, and he closed the door behind her.

She turned toward me, and smiled with confusion. "Hello. I'm Anastasia, Mikhail's mother."

I stumbled a bit, initially hiding behind Mikhail to avoid her attention, but eventually, I stuck my hand out, "Elle."

"Ah, so you're the Elle." She said, grinning widely.

"What are you talking about, Mom?" Mikhail asked, glancing between us.

"Oh, nothing. Your brother is coming by with his family later today, I was just tellin

    E L L EThe sound of his name alone made my blood boil with anger. What the hell was he doing here? Hasn't he done enough? What prompted his unwanted visit?"Send him in."The assistant nodded, and I sighed, leaning back in my chair.I knew whatever Sebastian was here for, it was no good.Sebastian was a sore reminder of the past. The painful and ugly past, one I never ever want to reminisce. The past one month of being with Mikhail, I had almost completely forgotten about Sebastian, not until today that he decided to grace me with his unpleasant visit. Sebastian strolled in, and he stood staring at me for a few moments. His eyes held a mixture of emotions which I couldn't really detect, or I didn't really care enough to.His brows were furrowed as if rethinking his decision of coming here. And he should.I stared back at the man I was hopelessly in love with five years ago. The man who betrayed me and left me all alone in this cruel world.Sebastian took a seat on the chair across fr

    E M O R YI was livid, annoyed and frustrated. All this goddamned pregnancy knows how to do is fuck with me and give me a migraine.I was supposed to be at the doctor's, but here I am, lying in bed and feeling like shit. I have to be there today. My appointment is important and I can't miss it, especially in my last month of pregnancy."Fuck this."Sebastian has been nothing but a shitty husband since my third trimester. He constantly came home late, left before I’m even able to wake up and forced me to take a maternity leave from my company because the baby could arrive at anytime. Which makes me wonder, if he knows the baby isn’t his, would he still care about me and the baby?He claims to love the child but he has never attended any of my ultrasounds, never held my hand when I was in pain or cried alone when I felt like a failure. He was absent from the pregnancy, and he has a lot of making up to do.I know what I did was wrong. And I feel horrible. But it doesn’t change the fact t

    S E B A S T I A NMy fingers tightened in the stirring wheel as I drive from Elle’s company. Anger surged through my veins, the need to punch something was strong, but the only thing stopping me was the car window.Her nonchalance, her anger, her fucking smirk, everything about her made me angrier. I wanted to punch her, wipe that smirk off her face.The sound of her palm connecting with my cheek was still echoing in my mind.Elle, the love of my life, the person who I had thought would be the mother of my children, the only woman I ever truly loved. The one woman who broke my heart and ruined me.She was nothing but a lying bitch. A cheater, a whore, a slut. She didn't deserve a single ounce of love from anyone. She was an ungrateful bitch who only deserved pain. Pain like the one she made me endure.Pain that was still lingering in my mind.What the he’ll was j thinking when I decided to pay her a visit.

    E M O R YI drove into the garage, sighting Sebastian's car which could only mean he was back.It was quite unusual to see him home at the hour, but I was thankful that I'm at least going to spend some time with him.Pushing the thoughts of all I discovered at the hospital, I pressed the lock button on my car key, watching as the car honked.The sound of my heels clicking against the pavement filled the silence of the night.I turned around, the lights of the building were illuminating the parking lot and giving the entire place a golden glow, making the dark night look more beautiful.I opened the door to the house, immediately noticing a lone figure standing next to one of the dining chairs.I rushed towards him and pulled him into a hug, which he didn't reciprocate. I inhaled his cologne, sighing. This was really my man. Never in my life did I believe I'd finally be able to get my hands on him, and here I was married to him even. Who would have fucking thought?

All I could see was Emory, laying in a pool of her own blood and her face scrunched in pain that might be etched in my head forever.I didn't know how long I've been sitting outside, but it felt like hours. I was helpless didn't know what was going on, totally clueless and the worst might have even happened.What if she doesn't make it? What if the baby doesn't make it? What if I lose both of them at the same time? Just because I was so busy accusing her of lying.If anything happens to them, I'll never forgive myself.My hands trembled and tears formed in my eyes.How could I have been so blind?So stupid.So oblivious.All this while, the woman who gave me genuine love was suffering alone and I was too busy accusing her of shit and not realizing her true intentions.I didn't pay attention to the signs, her mood swings, her weird behavior, her strange ea

He didn't have to, but he did.He was dressed in a dark blue suit, and he was holding a small gift bag, and I couldn't help the tears that gathered in my eyes.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your life, and thank you for the years we shared together. Thank you for everything.""I won't forget you, Sebastian.

She was finally living the life that I couldn't give her. She was finally with a man who deserved her and was taking care of her, the way she needed to be taken care of.Laura had her arm looped through mine, and was looking

    E L L EI was still standing in shock and disbelief. What exactly was Sebastian doing here? And, did he seriously walk into the birthday party of my best friend, with his mistress?This was the first time I was seeing him in months, and I didn’t like it one bit. I was certain that Avery or Giovanna hadn’t invited him, or did she? No. Giovanna didn’t even know about the birthday party to begin with. So, who else could have invited him?“What the fuck is he doing here?” Mikhail growled behind me, circling his arms around my waist protectively, pulling me closer.His body was tense, and I could feel his heart beating against his chest.Sebastian was holding his mistress' hand, and they were smiling, looking as happy as a couple could be.He was wearing a grey suit and the woman had her hair styled into a perfect bun, she was very beautiful. Her eyes were big and blue, and her face was covered in make-up. Her black dress hugged her slender body, and she looked very classy.Her face looked

    E L L EI sat at my vanity table, my towel wrapped around my body as I started with my make-up. I applied a light foundation, followed by a little blush, mascara, and red lipstick.My eyes were bright, and my cheeks were flushed. I looked absolutely different, and I could definitely see the glow that everyone was talking about. My skin was literally flawless, and I haven't had a single acne in months. The baby was trying to show the world that she's going to be a good girl, but is literally about to rupture my ribs from her constant kicks.She was a very active baby at just seven months. Two more months to go, and it could even get worse. Mikhail was busy getting ready, and he had been checking up on me constantly to make sure I was fine.I took out the hair curler and curled my hair into loose curls, letting it fall around my shoulders.Afterwards, I put on a light perfume, and stepped into my dress. The shimmery yellow mermaid gown clung tightly to my body, accentuating my curves. M

    M I K H A I LI drove my car into the driveway, and turned off the engine. After a few talks with the security guards, I walked into the house with a bouquet of Elle's favorite flowers.It was strangely quiet today, because I usually see Elle in the living room, either watching a movie or sleeping.I decided to go up the stairs and look for her in the bedroom. As soon as I twisted the door open and stepped in, I was met in a dark dimly lit room.There were candles everywhere and flowers and rose petals on the floor. The sight before me almost knocked the air out of my lungs. The sweet scent from the candles, her scent, it was all overwhelming. Elle was in a red lingerie. A sexy two piece lingerie, and her stomach was protruding. She looked like a goddess. One who God has taken his precious time creating under the moonlight, perfectly moulding each and every curve and feature.She was the definition of perfection. A gorgeous goddess. Her hair was flowing down her back, and she had he

    E L L EI was home all alone today because I just didn't feel like going to work. I wanted some peace and quiet, and quite frankly, I was too lazy to go anywhere.Today would be my off day. To sleep, watch a movie, snack and repeat.I had a huge bowl of popcorn and my eyes were glued to the TV, watching the romantic comedy I had rented from the library.It was a beautiful Friday and the weather was perfect, and I wanted to relax and spend the day alone.My phone was on silent and the door was locked. I was having a relaxing time, and no one could mess with me. I placed the huge bowl of popcorn on my belly. Yes, this baby was growing too fast that my belly was not big enough to hold the popcorn.I was a quarter through the movie when my doorbell rang, and I frowned. I paused the movie and sat up. Who could that be?It rang again, and then there was a loud banging on the door.I groaned and got up, walking to the door."Hold on a second!"I opened the door and was met with wide grins. "

He said, smiling as he took me in, his gaze moving slowly over my body, and I blushed."Come in.""I brought some wine and dessert." He said, showing the wine bottle."Great, the food is already here, and it's all set up. Thank you.""Thanks for inviting me over. You have no idea how much I missed seeing you." He said, pulling me into a tight hug, his musky scent hitting my nose, making my insides warm and fuzzy."I missed you too, Seb."He pulled away, and I had to try so hard to fight off the burning blush crawling up my cheeks."I hope you like the dessert, and the wine.

He's a heartless asshole." Giovanna stated, and her voice held authority and anger.I could hear the venom lacing her voice. Why would she be so mad and disgusted at Sebastian?"You are the sweetest girl I know, and have a heart of gold. And, Sebastian, the man is just a walking corpse. He's an animal, and has a heart of ice.""How would you know?" I asked, feeling defensive. I didn't like the way she was speaking about Sebastian. How does she know him? What exactly does she know about him that's making her say such things about him? What business does she have with him?"That man doesn't deserve your love, Laura. He destroyed my best friend. They had a very messy divorce that cost my best friend a lot. When he realized that he has been living with the real enemy, he now wants her forgiveness. He still loves h
