(Alana)

It was early in the morning, I was the first one to wake up. A night of nothing but passion made her feel energetic. Getting out of Ricardo's embrace was hard, but I had to work. After a dramatic night, I knew I had to take care of myself and my baby. The thought of having a child in my womb had me smiling as I reached my hand down and caressed my belly. The feeling was something I couldn't contain. I had Ricardo's child growing in my womb.

“Doctor's appointment?” a raspy voice interrupted my happy thoughts. Glancing over my shoulder, I found a naked Ricardo wrapped in sheets staring at her.

“Nope, are you not going to get ready?” I said, putting the hairbrush back on the table. I was busy. Ricardo frowned and prompted on his elbows. I had to ignore those long hairy legs and toned upper body. His hair was messy, but he was still as handsome as ever.

“I don't want you to be moving around,” the man said when I walked to pick up some sheets which had fallen on the floor.

    Ricardo was pacing angrily in the doctor's office. The anger he was feeling was enough to kill the doctor before him, but he had to calm himself and think of a solution. “I trusted you with her safety…you damned bastard failed me!” Ricardo growled with a slam of his fist on the table. His eyes flashed red as he glared at the man sitting behind the desk. Of course, the blonde-haired man only shifted from side to side and nodded. “Ricardo, we both know there's confidentiality between a doctor and a patient… I can go against my principles," the man said lazily, making Ricardo even more irritated. “Do you think you were doing me a favor, huh? Are you that stupid and brainless!” Ricardo yelled even more that the man knew he was in deep boiling soup. Either way, he made a promise. As a doctor, he knew when to keep a promise and when to break one. “Axel, what's wrong with you, she's my wife…” Ricardo muttered more calmly as he ran his hands through his hair. Axel Fernandez was his trust

    “Alana, you should take a break…you've been working since the afternoon," Brigitte said immediately as she entered the large room where the designs were done. All the employees had gone home, but their boss was still working. “Need to finish up…we don't want any mishaps,” Alana said and stretched a little. To know she had been working without actually checking the time. “Well, you are pregnant. You need to take care of yourself,” Brigitte frowned and walked around the long table. “We now have a week, I want everything to be perfect," she already made plans for the launch coming up in a week. The jewelry was done, but her collection was yet to be done. “I see, you are talented,” Brigitte commented while she checked all the designs placed on the table. Alana was indeed passionate about her work. Brigitte had to say, no one could compare to Alana. “Did Cam do something or what?” Alana asked as the two women sat down and someone brought them some hot coffee. “I don't wanna talk ab

    (Alana)It was not every time Ricardo suggested going out. I sat comfortably in my seat and watched as he talked to the waiter. We went to a fancy restaurant. Not sure why he didn't let me change into something more fitting for the occasion. But the man said it didn't matter. "Bring something more healthy…no alcohol and yes…dessert," Ricardo finished and slammed the menu on the table. The waiter nodded with a smile knowing she had been troubled."Right away sir," the lady said with a low bow and left right away. "Whatever they prepared…why don't we get that," I said, recalling what he said on our way to the restaurant. Ricardo shrugged and picked up a glass of water."Not healthy, we need to follow a strict diet…" he said while taking a sip of water and I frowned even more."You look lovely," Ricardo said and poured me some water. I didn't know why his words made me blush. But he chuckled and leaned back in the chair."You look nervous," I said, adjusting myself. Ricardo shrugged an

    Alana's eyes were red from rubbing them multiple times. She stared at her computer screen and then at her phone. No call from Ricardo. The man only asked Dennis to deliver lunch and other lovey-dovey gifts, and nothing. “Ah! This can't be happening,” it was frustrating to concentrate on work when her so-called husband was busy spending time away from her. “So…is it okay?” Someone's voice brought her back to reality. Startled, Alana glanced up and found her new assistant standing before her with a confused expression. “The materials just came in, the team is asking if you can check and select the ones you like,” the girl with big glasses covering half her face said and Alana knew what had happened. “Oh, Becky I think I need to look at this later,” Alana said with a sigh and pushed the chair backwards. The girl gave a half smile and placed a few files on the table. “Have you forgotten…you said we should do this as soon as possible,” the girl blinked profoundly at her, Alana let out

    "Where is it?" Alana muttered in frustration as she kept going through Ricardo's cabinets in his study room. She already searched their bedroom for anything fishy but the man knew how to hide his tracks."That damned man is seeing another woman," she let out a low growl and straightened up. She dramatically wiped the sweat from her forehead and scanned the room. It was irritating to look for something so desperately yet not find it. Either way, her wife's instincts wouldn't lie. She could feel it in the pit of her stomach. Ricardo was acting strange. Or was it because she was pregnant? Did she look so fat or ugly?"Ah!" Alana slammed her fist on the table and bit her lower lip. Maybe it was it. She scanned herself carefully and nothing was wrong. "Am I fat? Or is my face so wrinkly," she touched her face dramatically but nothing seemed out of place. She heard some men tended to stay away from their wives when they got pregnant. Did this mean Ricardo was also disgusted by her? Think

    (Alana)I scanned the black card handed to me and then glanced up at Ricardo. He didn't say a word, but simply shoved the card in my hand and turned to do whatever he had been doing.“What's this for?” I asked again, having no idea why he was giving me his black card. He shrugged and started arranging his suit. I stared at him for a while.“Ricardo, what are you planning, huh,” I asked and walked around the bed to get my purse when Ricardo caught me from behind. I was a little startled, but soon smiled when the man planted a soft kiss on my neck.“You smell delightful,” he murmured while kissing me for a while. His hot breath sent a shiver down my spine.“Ricardo, that's enough… I'm certain… Bri is waiting,” I said in between breaths while I tried to control myself. Just a touch from the man sent me over the edge. But I had a whole day planned out for Santiago and me.“I'm sure others can wait.” He whispered and slowly turned me around, so we were facing each other. His arm snaked aro

    Ricardo smiled as he arranged things on the table. Checking if the place was decorated as he wanted. It took some time to gather everything, including what his wife loved. Especially what she left back home in Italy. All he wanted was to make it up to her. Celebrate her birthday and assured her he would always be there for her. The bedroom was ready. He decided to have a little gathering at his farmhouse. Away from distractions. “Will she love this,” he muttered with a smile and scattered some rose petals on the bed? He had some candles placed in clear water bowls and arranged in a heart shape. In the middle of the room. “That's done,” he said with a smile, and placed the candles to the sides. He looked around and exhaled in relief. Glancing at his wristwatch, it was nearing evening. He made sure Alana was distracted for the day and did not get tired from work. The night was going to be a special one. For the first time, he was feeling nervous. “Damn it…why isn't she answering,” Ri

    Alana's eyes were getting blurry by the second. Rocco had taken her from the bed to the sitting area. She thought he would let her go, but he kept her restrained. Looking at him, Alana saw nothing but a crazy person. She was married, for goodness' sake. “It's your birthday… I want you to enjoy it…do you like the dress,” Rocco asked with a smile and glanced over at her? Of course, Alana had nothing to say. No matter what, she wasn't going to give him what he wanted.“I only want…what's best for you,” he added and held out the small knife, Alana kept her gaze away from him. Her silence made Rocco angry. But he kept his cool. She would come around soon, and now he was only trying to protect her and make her happy. “Everything I'm doing is…”“Just let me go! I don't want you!” Alana should for the first time that Rocco was startled by her outburst. She looked up, and her eyes were filled with hatred, “I don't love you, how many times should I say it?” She yelled again, this time she ke

    Alana and Ricardo snuggled in bed together, despite the doctor telling Ricardo to go to his room. He refused and wanted to be beside his wife. Alana was happy to be in the man's arms.“But it was untraceable…” Alana said with a frown. She was still confused about how Ricardo and the doctor managed to know exactly the poison Rocco used on Santiago. “We did a few tests, and apparently, he was injected with succinylcholine. It's a paralyzing agent that can cause respiratory arrest and is quite difficult to detect,” The elderly doctor explained while Ricardo nodded. “It's acquired through a black market…it's illegal and quite difficult to get the current,” Ricardo chimed in as well, and Alana was stunned. “I had Dario and Dennis watching Rocco. He met with some men who provided him with it,” Ricardo added, and Alana now understood everything. It seemed Ricardo knew something was wrong. She held on to him, knowing she was so lucky to have him.“We had the team male neostigmine, which rev

    Ricardo slowly opened his eyes, blinking against the harsh hospital lights. The throbbing pain in his body intensified as he tried to sit up, only to be met with a firm hand pushing him back down. Startled, he turned his head to see Marcus standing by his bedside, a look of concern etched on his face.“Lie down, Ricardo. You're badly hurt,” Marcus urged, his voice filled with worry. Confusion clouded Ricardo's mind as he tried to piece together what had happened. Why was he in a hospital bed? And why was Marcus here? Then, like a bolt of lightning, a memory flashed in his mind, and he jolted upright, ignoring the protests of his body.“Alana! Where is she? Is she okay?” Ricardo's voice trembled with fear as he frantically looked around the room, his heart pounding in his chest. Before Marcus could respond, Ricardo swung his legs over the side of the bed and attempted to stand, his body protesting with every movement. Ignoring the pain, he staggered towards the door, determination in h

    “You're shameless, forcing a woman to be with you,” Alana was in disbelief. By now, Rocco was only in his boxes. Threatening to have his way with her.“I've always loved you, Alana. I've always cared about you and wanted nothing but to give you the world!” Rocco made a low yell, the fact that he fancied her since the first day he set his eyes on her hurt him.“I'm a married woman!”“And I'm a man who deeply loves you…what does he have huh…what does Ricardo have that I don't…” he questioned. This time, his voice was low and held emotions. "I have money just like him, good looks, you name it…but he's nothing but a criminal!” “You're insane Rocco, you need help,” Alana refused to give in, despite how sorry she felt for him. She wouldn't forget that he poisoned a child.“I'm insane because I love You, you're the first woman who makes me feel this way…Alana please give me a chance,” Rocco's voice softened, he was nearly begging her to love him.“I don't love you… I love my husband…”“He's

    At the sight of Ricardo. Rocco lost it as he grabbed Alana by the hair and pointed a gun to her head. Ricardo's eyes widened in horror as he watched Rocco grab Alana by the hair and point a gun to her head. The guests gasped in unison, and their faces pale with fear.“Let her go this instant!” Ricardo growled as he took a step forward. Several guards rushed forward and surrounded him with guns pointing at him. “Let my wife go Rocco!”“Oh, shut up Ricardo…no one wants you here,” Rocco said lazily as he gripped Alana's hair even more tightly. The cold weapon connected to her skull frightened her.“You're courting death!” Ricardo snapped, taking a step forward. His fists clenched at his sides, his eyes blazing with anger. But before he could take another step, many guards rushed forward, surrounding him with guns pointed at him. “Hold it right there, Ricardo,” one of them warned. Rocco sneered, his grip on Alana's hair tightening. “Oh, shut up, Ricardo. No one wants you here.” Rocco re

    Rocco was in the master bedroom humming to a tune as he selected a tuxedo to wear. He couldn't hide his happiness. The room was filled with several boxes, and all were custom-made tuxedos specifically shipped for his wedding. The door creaked open without his realization, and it was Stacey who walked in.“Oh for goodness's sake…. Is this charade even necessary,” Stacey scoffed as she jumped over a box, careful enough not to hurt himself. Rocco heard her, but he was too overjoyed to pay her any attention. “You're really enjoying this, aren't you?” Stacey said with a smirk as she came to stand beside Rocco. He threw her a lazy glance and continued humming to a romantic tune.“Nothing will ruin my day, except a witch, like you,” Rocco retorted mockingly, Stacey rolled her eyes in annoyance and picked up a white tuxedo.“You should thank this witch for coming up with a brilliant idea to separate Alana and Ricardo,” Stacey smirked even more while Rocco's facial expression darkened.“One m

    Alana and Ricardo were stuck in an intense staring contest. Ricardo didn't dare let her go as he kept her in his grip. She seemed unhappy as she fought to keep him off her.“We are married…whatever the problem is, I'm here to solve it,” Ricardo whispered desperately. She just walked out on their marriage without any explanation. “And don't you dare say you feel nothing for me…don't,” he murmured as he leaned forward, their faces an inch from each other. Alana tore her gaze from him, her breath coming in short.“Please, babe, don't do this…” Ricardo cupped her face lovingly and tilted her back until she was facing him. Her eyes were closed shut, and when she opened them. Ricardo saw that cold gaze from the day she gave him the divorce papers.“Let me go!” She made a low yell and managed to get out of his hold. Before he could hold her, Alana pushed him away.“I don't care what you think, but it's over between us…” she slowly walked to the sitting area and leaned on it. “Leave me alone

    Alana stood by the window, her stunning red dress shimmering in the light. The strapless gown hugged her curves, showcasing her bare back and thigh through a daring slit. Her hair was sleekly pinned up, and diamond jewelry sparkled around her neck and ears. As she gazed out at the city lights, the cold breeze whispered across her skin, leaving a trail of goosebumps in its wake. Despite the chill, she exuded warmth and sophistication, a true vision of beauty at night.“Are you ready?” came a deep male voice. She didn't have to turn to know who it was. Her hands tightened on the purse she was holding. “It's our engagement at least smile,” it was Rocco who came into view, Alana was doing everything possible to keep her emotions in check. She glanced at Rocco with a stern gaze.“Rocco, stop this… I did what you asked…give me the rest of the antidote,” Alana said, her voice laced with emotions. Rocco stood beside her and shoved his hands in his pockets.“You are not entitled to make demands

    Ricardo's heart raced as he parked his car in front of the hospital. He practically sprinted through the doors, his mind filled with fear and anxiety. His only child had been lying in that hospital bed unconscious and fighting for his life. The doctor's grim prognosis had shattered Ricardo's world, leaving him feeling utterly helpless.As he rushed down the sterile white hallways, he couldn't shake the feeling that the doctor was keeping something from him. How could Santiago suddenly be awake and eating when just yesterday he was on the brink of death? Ricardo's mind raced with questions, but he pushed them aside as he finally entered Santiago's room.The sight that greeted Ricardo stopped him in his tracks. There, sitting up in bed with a tray of food in front of him, was his son. Santiago looked pale and weak, but there was a spark of life in his eyes that Ricardo hadn't seen in days. Tears welled up in Ricardo's eyes as he rushed to Santiago's side, engulfing him in a tight embrac

    Ricardo sat beside his son, and he held his son's hand. He watched him connect to various tubes and machines. His heart ached, and his son was always healthy, so what exactly happened to him.“Hey,” someone said from behind, Ricardo regained his senses, realizing there was another person in the room. It wasn't Alana, but Chloe. “He's going to be fine,” Chloe muttered softly as she walked closer to him. Ricardo only nodded and kept his gaze on Santiago.“We can try a different hospital… I have a friend who is a good doctor… I can ask for her help,” Chloe added when Ricardo didn't reply. The room was in utter silence. Chloe knew Ricardo was hurt. He loved Santiago more than anything. “I'll take care of that. You can leave now… I don't want my wife seeing you,” Ricardo said coldly. She knew Alana never liked Chloe. Having her around would make things awkward “Ricardo, I know I did some pretty bad things…trust me, I've changed, and I just want our old friendship back,” Chloe remarked wi
