"My baby." Those were the first words Isabelle's mom whispered when she opened the door and came face to face with Isabelle. Isabelle's mouth opened and closed, but no words came out. It felt like years since she laid her eyes on her mom. Christian stood behind his girlfriend, looking at the two women as their faces displayed a range of emotions.

The older woman stepped out of the house and pulled her daughter into a heartwarming, tight embrace. The very thing that Isabelle missed, with trembling hands, she hugged her mother back. "God, I missed you honey." Mrs. Jenkins stated as she held on to her daughter.

Both women were overcome with intense happiness that they couldn't control. It became overwhelming to the point of making them shed literal tears. "Mom." Isabelle finally managed to whisper, her voice thick and broken. She thought that she would never see her mother again.

She didn't resist when her mother guided her into the house she so much dreaded setting her feet inside. Ch

    Isabelle curled in the lounge chair right at the garden rooftop. Christian had the gray chair moved up there for his girlfriend to relax in whenever she felt like it. He was downstairs in the main house, preparing dinner. The man was still pissed at Isabelle's mother; he found her egocentric."Hello." Isabelle pressed the receiver button on her wireless headphones when it rang. She didn't bother checking who the caller was; her eyes were shut, enjoying the sunset. "Belle." Isabelle recognized the voice in an instant—the source of her nightmares. Her eyes flew open in an instant, landing on the phone screen where the caller's name was displayed. She directed her hand over the call button to end the call, her mood transitioning from bad to worse."If you know what's best for you, don't go back there." Sam voiced out before Isabelle hung up. "I will report you for stalking if you call again." Isabelle managed to utter before pressing the button on her headphones. She removed them and p

    "The hell you are." Isabelle panted, biting her lower lip. "Right, I'm fucking hard." Chris smiled, palming himself while he remained seated. His cock twitched when Isabelle placed her bare foot on his covered crotch. Then she began massaging, moving her soft foot in an up-and-down motion along his bulge."Damn baby." He rasped, grabbing her leg to stop her from moving. He could still taste her on his tongue—salty and sweet. "Let me." She stated, wiggling her leg to get it out of his gentle grip. When she managed to free herself, she lowered herself from the table onto his lap, with her legs on either side of his body. "What are you doing?" He breathed, enjoying the warmth of her ass as it seeped through his sweats. Isabelle smirked, staring at his parted, juicy lips. Slowly, she placed her hand under his shirt and began to feel his ripped abdomen."Touching you." She replied, rubbing her palms on his skin as she went higher, pushing his shirt up his chest in the process. "I've nev

    She sat there, waiting for the pain to ebb away. After a few seconds, she lifted her ass, then sank on him, taking half of him. "Aah yes." Christian swallowed her moan with the kiss, her walls contracting around his cock. Christian, on the other hand, was struggling to control himself. He didn't want to unleash his beast on his pregnant girlfriend. He trembled under her as she found a rhythm, moving her ass up and down as if she were twerking. "Get down on your feet." He ordered, wanting to actualize his earlier imagination. Isabelle lifted her body, letting the hard meat slip out. She got down in confusion, her chest beginning to burn. Questions about his blatant rejection and dismissal made a lump in her throat begin to grow. Christian stood behind her, his cock jutting out, glistening with her juices. "Hey, stop overthinking and bend over, hands on the table." He instructed, pushing her gently into his desired position."Chris..." Isabelle started, but Christian cut her off when

    It had been a whole week since Isabelle's visit to her mother's place. In those seven days, Isabelle had been posted on a number of newspapers' front pages alongside Christian. Sean had gotten a new male secretary for Christian, but she hadn't met him yet. "Is it me or do you look a little..." Sean bit his lip to stop himself from running his mouth."Don't you dare say fat." Isabelle pointed at him, taking a bite of an apple she was holding. She was currently at Christian's work place, seated in his office chair after he went for a meeting."Why aren't you at the meeting?" She changed the subject when she started feeling a little self-conscious. She looked at her stomach under the jungle green flare dress that she wore. "Christian is meeting up with his father; I don't want to be anywhere near those two." Sean dramatically shook his head, plopping into the office chair in front of Christian's desk. "Yeah, he mentioned. Can I ask?" Isabelle leaned on the chair."Of course." Sean smi

    "Christian please." She raised her hands in the air, pleading with him to stop talking. "Do you still feel something for him?" His heart ached further as mere imagination took root in his brain. "Excuse me." She curtly stated, heading to the bathroom. She wobbled slightly when she stood, feeling lightheaded. Her vision blurred a bit, but when she closed her eyes and opened them, her vision cleared up. She didn't make it to the bathroom; Christian crossed the room and grabbed her wrist, stopping her from taking another step. "You won't even look at me; you don't want to answer me..." He trailed off, standing between her and the bathroom door. His free hand clenched into a fist, itching to deliver a punch on Dylan's stupid face. If only Sean hadn't revealed the information to Isabelle, then he wouldn't have to worry about her contacting Dylan."Please let me go." She whispered in a broken voice, casting her eyes to her feet. She wore black flip flops with her flare dress, afraid of s

    Everything seemed to be thrashing out of control around Christian. The ache in his chest grew, stabbing repeatedly like a hot knife as it sliced through. He couldn't stand straight; he bent over, placing his hands on his knees. He refused to move from the theater door, his security guards standing outside with him."How's she?" He heard Sean's voice from afar, then a pair of hands on his shoulders. "Excuse us." Sean dismissed the two tall men dressed in black suits. The mini-OR was located on the ground floor of the hospital, isolated at a corner with minimal traffic. "It's my fault." Christian mumbled, sniffing, when the men left. "You can't blame yourself man; it's not your doing." He tried convincing him, but Christian was having none of it. His throat and nose were clogged, passing little to no air. "She'll ne..." He couldn't finish his statement; he sank to the floor, sniffing back his tears. He prided himself on being a strong man, but at that moment, the loss of his child b

    "How is she doing?" Sean passed by Christian's uphill home to check on Isabelle a day after she had been discharged. "She won't talk, Sean." Christian rubbed his face with his hands, standing by the pool with a bottle of whiskey. "Can I see her?" He asked. He held a bouquet of red roses and baby breath flowers in one hand and a box of chocolates in the other. Christian raised the bottle to his mouth and chugged down the liquid in large gulps. "Hey, slow down on that; you can't drink yourself to stupor when she's relying on you." Sean placed the box of chocolates down and took the bottle of whiskey from Christian. "First floor, in the guest room, immediately after the stairs." He directed him to where Isabelle was after wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. "Coming?" Sean called as he disappeared into the house. "In a bit." Christian responded, deciding to take a walk around his backyard to clear his head. The area behind his house was vast, and it screamed nothing but the

    Christian entered Isabelle's room without knocking, heading straight to the balcony. She was holding the chocolate that Sean had opened and was about to take a bite. Her hands froze mid-air, right in front of her parted lips, when she saw Christian. He hadn't looked like that when she saw him earlier that day. Her eyes raked over him, taking in his unkempt state. He reeked of alcohol, his bloodshot eyes completing his distressed look."It wasn't your fault." Christian started after standing awkwardly at the door that led to the balcony. His arms itched to embrace Belle in the warmest hugs he had ever given her."The doctor had told me that my stress hormone cortisol production was rapidly increasing." Christian almost peed himself when he heard Isabelle's voice for the first time since her discharge."It gradually suppressed the production of progesterone, and without enough pregnancy hormone, we stood no chance." Isabelle's shoulders shook and her chin trembled. "Can I hold you, ple

    A month after Isabelle's father's burial, Isabelle and Dion had grown impossibly closer. Their relationship with their mother had tightened. Isabelle was back to talking with Dylan, even though Christian didn't like it. Sam had been arrested for blackmail and gotten a one-year sentence, while Stanton got one year of probation."I don't understand why you're nervous." Sean shook his head, looking at his friend, who couldn't stop pacing. The park was closed as darkness approached fast on that Tuesday."Do you think they'll come?" Christian asked, stopping for a second to look at the park's entrance."Of course, I just got off the phone with Dion. He said that they'll be here any moment now. She still has no idea about what's happening, and they are still lying to her." Sean explained, scrolling through his phone to rehearse the speech with Christian."What did they tell her?" Christian knew Isabelle was curious to know why Dion and her mother were taking her to a local park at 7 p.m."G

    "She came onto me; gosh, you always date them whores." Christian's father scoffed, shrugging his shoulders, when Christian shot him a glare."It was the only way to get you to talk to me." Isabelle addressed Christian. "She would have done something stupid, so..." Tiffany chimed in, crossing her legs."Shut up!" Both Christian and his father uttered at the same time, making Tiffany roll her eyes. She wasn't fazed by their testosterone; she just wanted her friend and boyfriend to reconcile."I'm sorry." Isabelle started, the memory of her boyfriend leaving her in the morning without a word crowding her mind. "I don't want to listen to anything you have to say. You said enough yesterday." Christian dismissed, lifting his hands above his shoulders. "Tiffany just sent you a photo of me and your father. Feel free to use it if you want to end the contract you have with him." She then turned to Tiffany and beckoned with her hand. "Let's go." Isabelle blinked back tears as she walked over

    "Christian please." Isabelle held on to his hand with her hands to stop him from walking out of their bedroom."I'm so sorry, baby say something, please, anything." She begged, sniffing. Christian used his free hand to open the door and easily got out of Isabelle's grip. He didn't look back as he stepped into the hallway, heading to the staircase that led down to the sitting room and the kitchen.Isabelle followed, breathing through her mouth to get air past her clogged nose. She had to jog to match Christian's long strides. He came home late after the fallout in the office the previous day. Hadn't said a single word to Isabelle; when she woke up, she found him already dressed and heading out. He had no plans of even glancing at her. Yes, she was grieving, but that didn't give her an excuse to bring his parents into the mix. "Are you seriously going to leave me here begging you?" Isabelle shouted as Christian picked up his car keys from the bowl on top of the kitchen counter. When he

    "So it really was about money." Christian spat, speaking to himself. When Isabelle had said he didn't understand what she was feeling, he gave a quick thought about it. For a second he thought that maybe something else was wrong with his mother the day he almost stabbed him. At that moment, as his hand found the door knob, Christian could feel his entire body getting cold."I'm sorry Chris, I'm so sorry." He didn't look back as he stepped out, tuning off his mother's voice. What had he really expected by going to see her? More plans from his father to finish him? For what? He grew up thinking that parents were supposed to be proud of their children. For his parents though? One was money hungry, the other one was both greedy, jealous and just monstrous.He had left his car outside the gate so it was a long stretch. He had to go past the fountain on the front yard and walk for a few minutes before he got to the outside. "Chris please! I should have been there for you, I should have stoo

    "That fucking coward!" Isabelle screamed, pulling at her hair, which was held in a bun. Christian engulfed her, minimizing her movements as she thrashed around. Dion stood silently, staring right at his feet. His gut boiled, bile rising up his throat on waves of anger. His skin prickled as his hands clenched into fists. "Cowaard!" She screamed again as she hit Christian's chest. She tried pushing him off her, but he just wouldn't budge. "At least he's not in your life anymore." Christian regretted his words the moment he uttered them. "Shut up! Are you justifying his cowardice now? He sold my brother! He separated us and broke my mother in the process. He fucking tried to kill her and framed me for having sex with my own cousin. He deserved to rot in jail. How can you stand there and spew such bullshit Christian? How the fuck can you?"Isabelle was seeing red, her eyes changing from teary to shooting daggers. "Isabel.." Christian loosened his grip, feeling like she had just kneed h

    "I'm so sorry for leaving yesterday without talking much." Dion stated the moment Isabelle entered Sean's office. Christian had a lot of work and a presentation from the IT team. Sean wasn't available either, so that morning it was only Belle and Dion."What's important is how you are feeling." Isabelle hugged her brother, the fact that they were truly related sinking in at that moment. It felt surreal before, but looking at their resemblance, there was no denying it. "I really don't know how I'm feeling, Belle." Dion started, hanging his head when Isabelle sighed. She held his hand and led him out of the office, towards Christian's. Thinking about his insensible, monstrous father was proving a difficult task for Dion. They went straight to Christian's adjoining room and out to the balcony. Isabelle wanted them to have space to talk without interruptions."I didn't know the view was this nice." Dion forced a smile as he placed his forearms on the railings, looking at the dark clouds

    "Nnh." Christian moaned in his sleep, or so he thought. Before his eyes opened, he could feel warmth and softness wrapping around his cock. Tingles of pleasure slithered up his spine, slowly consuming him. Isabelle hummed between his legs under the comforter, taking her time to lick his hard cock."Damn baby." Christian groaned in a deep, sleepy voice, biting his lower lip to gain some control. He clutched the sheets on either side, feeling Isabelle's mouth. She pushed off the comforter, taking a deep breath after a minute of staying under the comforter. "Good morning, babe." Isabelle smiled seductively, holding Christian's cock at the base. She looked at his hazy eyes, full of sleep and arousal, as he spread his legs further. "What a fine morning!" Christian's voice ascended when his girlfriend leaned again, wrapping the bulbous head with her beautiful lips."Oh fuck!" He thrust upward, making Isabelle's eyes water as she strained to take him in her small mouth. It wasn't a secret;

    "Oh, god, baby." Isabelle moaned, arching her back into Christian's skilled and talented hands. He massaged the top of her right breast while he kissed her neck. He moved his hand along the curve of her boob, raising her sexual frustration. "Babe!" Isabelle complained, throwing up her hands in the air."What do you want?" Christian whispered against her ear, his husky voice sending heat straight between Isabelle's legs. He took the earlobe in his warm mouth, biting gently on it. Isabelle squirmed, her entire body shivering in pleasure and anticipation."Please babe." Isabelle whispered, tilting her head to expose the side of her neck to Christian as he left open-mouth kisses."That's not an answer, love." Christian smirked against her cheek as he pecked her. "Please." Isabelle added with her droopy eyes, staring at Christian as his face hovered above hers. He smirked against her lips and then dipped, capturing the soft pink flesh gently. Isabelle hummed, tilting her head to give Chr

    "You didn't even want him in the first place!" Albert argued, shutting his mouth when Jenkins stepped on his left bare foot. Before he could continue assaulting the man, the door burst open, with a number of officers getting in."What the fuck are you doing?" Isabelle's father shouted when an officer pushed him down on his knees and then handcuffed him."Putting cuffs on you." The officer stated the obvious, forcing the older man to his feet."We had a fucking deal, you twits!" He seethed, trying to wiggle out of the damn cuffs. "That deal expired the minute we uncovered the truth behind all these...Did you really believe that you could get away with it?" Baron and Russell got inside, with Baron smirking victoriously at Jenkins."What are you talking about?" Dion was confused. His adoptive parents were arrested and guided outside to the waiting van."This man here played us, or wanted to play us." Jenkins scoffed, stumbling when he was pushed forward towards the door."We just took t
