Chapter Seventy Two
Nina POV
I know it sounds silly but having Stefan brush my hair it's the best unexplainable feeling ever.As time passes by, I love him more.
When we reached the garden, everything looked so beautiful. It seemed like angels moving around.Since the colour theme was white,black and gold the men had to wear white shorts, a white button up shirt and a pair of loafers. Loafers could either be black or white . We ladies had to wear a loose fit, light weight sleeveless summer dress with back lace straps and boat neck.Not forgetting a pair of black strap ankle heels.
Ella had dressed the sitting table with a gold table cloth and arranged filing vases, tea lights with dark coffee beans and crepe paper flowers in line on the middle of the table. There was also bottles of wine,beer and champagne in silver buckets for guests to serve themselves. We had to maintain a special vibe.
Beside the sitting table, there was white dressed tables fill
Chapter Seventy ThreeAuthor's POVNina was struggling to keep her balance but couldn't. It was Stefan's responsibility to get her to the room."Legs move." She tried to command them to walk but they didn't."Guys, me and wife will go to our room now.Bye. " Stefan smiled and waved at the rest but everyone was in their own world.They both swayed left and right holding each other as they walked from the garden to the house.If only Stefan had the strength to carry her up the stairs but he didn't.They clumsily walked up the stairs speaking slurred and senseless words upto their room."Stefan, why is our room spinning?" Nina begun crying."Nina the room is okay. You are the one spinning not our room."Nina began to stagger towards the bed but Stefan held her hand,pulled her to him and pinned her to the wall.He had this burning desire to make love to her and couldn't control it."Do you really need this dress?" He asked, ca
Chapter Seventy FourStefan's POVI was pacing to and fro in the kitchen, the dilemma inside my head draining my energy away.Why did the the best night of my life suddenly feel like the worst mistake ever committed? Right now, I should be beside her. Cuddling like our lives depends on it and kissing her like there is no tomorrow but here I am acting like a jerkass.I really needed to talk to someone or else my head would explode. I walked to the living room and shook Ramon vigorously."Wake up , I need to talk to you.""Can't it wait? I feel like a heavy rock has been dropped on top of my head." He groaned.I angrily walked to the dining table, took the jug full of water and returned to where he was sleeping."Sorry bro." I murmured to myself before splashing the water on his face."What the f*ck Stefan, do you wanna kill me?" He screamed as he struggled to get up, "This better be important or else you are a dead man."Why did the the best nigh

For the past three months, we were more of friends.We understood each other, shared each others' joys and sorrows, stood by each other and I can't believe how fast time went by. it's now only one week before I sign the divorce papers.There has been signs in her showing me she might actually feel something for me even if it's tiny bit but I can't accept that fact.The way she looked at Carlos in the past, rubbed her love for him on my face I know it's not that easy to forget him.I was happy that I took part in helping my wife fulfill her dream.I gave the fashion house plan the first priority, hired more than enough contractors,ensured everything needed was in place and before we knew it, it was all done.. There was a p
Chapter Seventy SixNina's POVThe last thing I remember is arguing with Carlos but here I was lying on my bed with Ella and the doctor standing beside me."How are you feeling your highness?" The doctor asked the moment I fully gained consciousness."I feel like my head has been run over by a truck and the abdominal pains are unbearable." I stuttered as tears made my cheeks wet."How are you feeling dear?" Ella asked as she sat beside me and took my hand into hers."I hope Carlos didn't tell Stefan about it.I don't want him to know.Please talk to h.."I felt a sharp pain in my belly that made me forget what I was saying as I begun groaning in pain."Doctor why are the headaches frequent and the abdominal pains severe?" I cried out, squeezing Ella's hand."You are now 12weeks pregnant and I don't think you following my instructions at all." The doctor warned as she checked my heartbeat."Your heart pu

I cussed out as I hit him with a pillow on his head."Nina what the f*ck? Of course the Kate we all now." He stammered as he rubbed his head."So she still has your number? Let me rephrase you people still talk right?" I asked between closed teeth.I could feel the anger inside me bubbling up.A killer headache had begun spreading across my temples but I didn't care.My mind was soaking in fear and I couldn't help it.I know I shouldn't stress myself out but the situation infront of me wasn't helping either."We don't..""Shut up Stefan," I butted in,"When someone hurts you like she did, you f*cking block them.I k

He begun walking towards her.i could feel a sharp pain in my chest as She shamelessly threw her arms around his neck and begun acting all emotional."I have missed you alot my JoJo." She sobbed.JoJo? What a silly nickname."If you only knew how much I have missed you."Sweet heavens, I wanna throw up.She spoke in a high class way and yet so gentle.I could sense a deep longing in her eyes."Stefan who is this?" I asked and finally Stefan remembered he had a."Ooooh Nina!!!!" He pulled back. Yes, welcome back to reality fool."S
Chapter Seventy NineStefan's POVWhen I saw Katewalking towards me, wearing the same dress she wore during our first date I was blown away. The emptiness crawled back so raw like five years ago.The loneliness, coldness and pain felt so fresh beneath my skin.The memories played in my mind in a fast forward mode.The messy bun, the nude off-shoulder sequinned gown and a black purse.Nothing had changed apart from she had grown more beautiful.I remember how shy I was on our first date and she was the one who stole the first kiss from me.I didn't sleep for a week, I kept dreaming of that kiss until I grew the balls to kiss her again.She was my first love, she was the girl who made my heart beat so fast because of love and here she is standing Infront of me.All I wanted was to hug her and ask why she left me.I thought she always told me I was perfect and I had everything she needed in a man then where did I go wrong.When she fainted, I almost los
Chapter EightyStefan's POVThere she was in my arms looking so fragile.How could I not consider my actions or words??"Please love wake up, don't leave me!!" I stuttered and Lucy just shook her head."Dude stop being a fool.We need to get her to the hospital, I think she needs medical attention."How could she be so calm while I was freaking out? I could literally feel like someone was squeezing my heart out.Without her, there was no point of living.I felt destroyed seeing her in that state."How are you so calm?" I asked."Have you seen you? You look like you could die of a heart attack.Take her to the car and I will pack some clothes for her." She replied dryly."Can you at least tell me what's happening?" I stammered as tears threatened to stream down."Should we do this right now?" Lucy palm slapped her forehead."Yeah, I wanna know what is ahead of me and know if I have the strength to persevere.I don't
Chapter Eight SixNina's POV13 years later.I tried to get out of bed when Prince Stefan held my hand."Where are you going so early in the morning?" He pulled me back to bed and wrapped his arm around my waist."You know I have missed being so closed to you.We are both busy with work and I barely even hold you like this anymore." He rested his head on my back.Prince Stefan should understand that for the past thirteen years, things have changed.We have a teenage boy and an eight year old who thinks is a princess."Prince Stefan, it's Saturday and Ethan will soon wake up very hungry." I dropped his hand from my waist and quickly got out of bed but he jumped out of bed and stood Infront of me."Ethan can wait.All I want is to hold my wife for some few minutes.I miss kissing these lips, I don't know even how they taste anymore." He begun c*ressing my lips.""Prince Stefan please not now." I stammered but he didn't listen.He held me
Chapter Eighty FiveNina's POVFinally the D-day was here.I was excited that Stefan gets to finally perform the rites required but I was also anxious.He is unfamiliar with our traditions, what if he messes up? Dear God,help that stubborn man to do things right.I was so lost in thoughts when I heard Ethan cry.I rushed out of my room like a mad woman and found his lip bleeding.My poor baby.He was rubbing his eyes with the back of his hands wearing a sad face.Only heavens can explain the pain a mother feels when she sees her baby in pain.The moment he saw me, he ran to me."Mama?" He wrapped his hands around my legs."What's wrong baby?" I picked him up."Mama me fall." He cried out.I looked around and saw Britney agitated."What happened to him?"

Chapter Eighty FourStefan's POVI pressed my hands against the incubator glass trembling.The pain had unpleasant warmth to it.The wait of holding my son in my arms was giving me a burning pain .Tears spilled down my face as I looked at him.It was a profound deep love never to be replaced.This is the greatest love one could ever feel.He had a chest lead on his chest, a pulse oximetry on his finger, an IV on his hand and an oxygen hood placed over his head.Not for a moment did he cry, it seems he was strong as his mother."Son, I can't wait to hold you in my arms.Your mother loves you so much too.Be strong for us my baby.We love you."Nina's POVOne week laterEthan you are my sun, moon and all of my stars.Holding a baby in your arms is one of life's greatest pleasure.I wanted to drink that moment.The moment with my son, Ethan Valedram.His looks were so perfect and his smile divine.I can't believe I carried him in my arms
Chapter Eighty ThreeStefan's POVI could barely feel my fingers from the massage I was from giving Nina.It had become a habit of mine to massage and bathe her since she could barely even reach her knees. It was the much I could do for her.Her belly was growing bigger and bigger by the day.She was now seven months pregnant which was by God's grace.She has been on and off hospitals and nothing seems to change . She is more pale, more weaker but full of enthusiasm to meet her beloved son and hold him in his arms.The persisting headaches, the unbearable abdominal pains, the nausea and vomiting were nothing when it came to this fearless mother to be.Never look down on mother's my friends.But if it was possible for a man to carry a child inside him then I would have been more than willing to and take the pain from herAfter fearing God, fear mothers.They can be very dangerous and persisting when it comes to their children.
Chapter Eighty TwoNina's POVI think I was too harsh on Stefan.He was just concerned about me but I am a selfish mother.Nothing or no one will make me get rid of this baby.We have a bond and since the day he begun growing inside me we became one.I should go and talk with him softly and sweetly.I will assure him that I am okay and we can do this.Yes it becomes unbearable at times but that's the fruit of our love and we aren't giving up on it. I was about to get out of bed when I heard footsteps towards the door.That must be Stefan,even thou I wasn't angry at him anymore I won't show it .Let him suffer for a while.I pulled the bedsheet over my head and pretended to be fast asleep when I felt a soft pat on my shoulder."Go away Stefan.I said I don't want to see you. "I cussed out. There was no reply."Stefan I know you are there.Just leave or I push you out.""Excuse me madam,sir Stefan sent me to bring you some toast and baby shake."
Chapter Eighty OneNina's POVI walked into the kitchen to make some baby shake and found Carlos making his favourite chocolate milkshake."So how is the baby elephant doing?" He joked and I slapped the upside of his head."Do I look fat to you?""You said it not me." He raised his hands dramatically."Fool!!!!""I love the glow in your face.You look happy and it makes me happy.I told you he loves you."I couldn't help but blush.Was it that obvious that I was happily in love?"And thank you for being there for me.Who would have thought we would have fallen in love with different people?" I shook my head reaching out for the blender when I felt his hand on mine."Missy, I will make you the baby shark.Just sit on top of the counter and tell me anything." He wiggled his eyebrows and I shrugged. He lifted me on the counter and begun making the baby shake."So how are you right now? Do you still have those killer headache
