THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH DAMIEN'S BABY
ANNAI’m sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at the ocean waves crashing against the shore through the glass doors of our hotel room. The silence between Damien and me has stretched out for hours, thick and heavy. I want to say something but don’t know how to start.He’s standing near the window, his back turned to me, hands shoved into his pockets. He’s tense, his shoulders stiff, and I can feel the weight of everything unspoken between us pressing down on my chest.“Damien,” I finally say, my voice softer than intended.He turns slightly, his eyes meeting mine with a questioning look, but he doesn’t speak.“I can’t do this anymore.” The words tumble out of my mouth before I can stop them. I look away, unable to meet his gaze any longer. “I’m so confused... I don’t know what’s happening between us, and it’s messing with my head.”He walks over to me slowly, sitting beside me on the bed. The closeness makes my heart race, and I hate that even now, after everything, I can still fee

DAMIENThe gentle hum of the plane's engines fills the first-class cabin, but my mind is elsewhere. I glance at Anna beside me, noticing how pale she looks. She’s resting her head against the window, her eyes half-closed, breathing shallowly. Something's off, and it hits me with a pang of worry I didn’t expect.I lean in closer, my voice soft. “Baby, you okay?”She blinks slowly, her hand coming up to press against her temple. “I don’t feel too good,” she mutters, her voice weak. “I think... I might be getting sick.”My chest tightens. I wasn’t prepared to feel this much concern, to care this deeply. I reach out without thinking, gently rubbing a hand on her knee. “You need anything? Water? Maybe some ginger ale will help?”Anna shakes her head, eyes still closed, her hand resting limply in her lap. I don’t miss how her skin has taken on a faint sheen of sweat, or how she’s trying to keep it together.“Hey, baby, look at me,” I say gently, shifting to see her face more clearly. She op

ANNA The soft hum of the plane is the only thing keeping me from spiralling deeper into my thoughts. I sit there, staring out the window at the endless clouds, trying to focus on anything other than the storm raging inside me. The nausea from earlier has mostly subsided, but it’s nothing compared to the swirling emotions in my chest. Damien is sitting beside me, unusually quiet, and it’s making everything worse. The tension between us is suffocating, even as he tries to improve it.“Anna,” Damien says softly, breaking the silence. His voice is hesitant like he’s treading carefully. “Are you still feeling sick?”I turn to face him, his eyes full of concern. The genuine worry on his face makes it hard to stay distant, but I force myself to hold back. “I’m fine,” I reply, my voice flat. I don’t mean for it to sound cold, but it does.He doesn’t drop it. “You don’t look fine, baby.”There it is again that word. Baby. He’s called me that a few times now, and each time, it feels strange. F

ANNAAs the plane finally touches down in Seattle, I feel a mixture of exhaustion and anticipation. The last few days in the Maldives have been a whirlwind of emotions, and now, returning home feels surreal. I can’t shake the feeling that everything has changed—between Damien and me, between myself and the world.We disembark, and my first thought is how cold Seattle feels compared to the Maldives. I pull my jacket tighter around me as we walk through the private terminal. Everything is a blur, and I almost don’t notice the sleek convoy of cars waiting for us.But then, I stop. A Rolls-Royce? Followed by a couple of SUVs? My eyes widen, and I turn to Damien, who is walking beside me like this is just another normal day."Is this... for us?" I ask, my voice laced with disbelief."Yeah," he replies casually like he’s used to this level of grandeur. "It’s ours."I blink, trying to wrap my head around the idea that I’m about to step into a car that costs more than a house. "Is this... nor

DAMIEN“Damien!” she shouts, her voice sharp, almost furious. It echoes down the driveway, stopping me in my tracks.I turn, heart pounding, and see Vanessa storming toward me, her face a mask of anger. Anna’s figure stiffens just ahead of me, frozen mid-step. I see her hesitate, and instantly, she rushes inside the house, not saying a word.I can feel the weight of Vanessa’s gaze as she closes the distance between us. The knot in my stomach tightens, and I know whatever’s coming isn’t going to be good.“Vanessa, this isn’t the time,” I say through clenched teeth, glancing back at the house where Anna has disappeared.Vanessa doesn’t care. She’s livid, her eyes narrowing as she steps closer, not giving me an inch to breathe. “You think you can just brush me off like I’m nothing?” she snaps, her voice low but seething. “What the hell do you think you’re doing, Damien? You can’t just cut me out of your life!”I sigh, trying to keep my voice steady. “Vanessa, you showing up like this isn

ANNA“Damienn!!!!” I scream, clutching my side as the sharpest pain I’ve ever felt rips through me. My vision blurs as a white-hot, stabbing sensation pulses through my body. I feel like I’m being torn apart from the inside. The world narrows to just the pain and the panic that follows it."Anna!" Damien’s voice cuts through the haze, full of urgency. He’s in front of me within seconds, kneeling and cupping my face. His touch is gentle, but his hands are shaking. “What’s wrong? Talk to me!” His voice is rising in panic.I gasp, struggling to catch my breath as the pain intensifies. “It’s... my side...” I manage to whisper, tears streaming down my face. “It’s so bad... I can’t...”“Hold on, baby,” Damien says, his voice shaking as he pulls out his phone. He fumbles with it momentarily, dialling a number with trembling fingers. “Get here right now! My wife is in a lot of pain, hurry!”His eyes flick back to me as he snaps the phone shut, his face pale. “Baby, I’ve called for help. They
Last Updated : 2024-10-02THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH SLOWLY TEARING DOWN WALLS
DAMIENI’m sitting in the waiting room, staring blankly at the clock on the wall. Each second feels like a lifetime. My heart pounds in my chest, and my mind is racing with every worst-case scenario imaginable. The words "surgery" and "life-threatening" keep replaying in my head, over and over. I’ve never felt so damn powerless."Damien," my nanny’s voice pulls me out of my trance. She’s standing next to me, holding a cup of coffee that she offers with a sympathetic smile. "You should drink something. You’ve been sitting here for hours."I take the cup without really thinking, but I don’t drink. I can’t. “How long do these things take?” I mutter, more to myself than to her.Miss Rosie sits down next to me, folding her hands in her lap. "Sometimes longer than we want, but the doctors know what they’re doing. Anna’s strong. She’ll pull through."I nod, but the words don’t sink in. Miss Rosie’s trying to help, but it doesn’t stop the crushing weight of fear. I hate this—being here, waiti
Last Updated : 2024-10-03THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH RECOVERY
ANNAThe soft hum of the hospital room’s air conditioning fills the quiet space. I’m staring at the ceiling, feeling the weight of everything pressing down on me. The pain in my side is a dull throb now, nothing compared to the agony I felt before the surgery. Still, the tightness lingers, reminding me of how close things got.I shift slightly on the bed, wincing as the ache sharpens. It’s hard to focus on anything, especially with my mind swirling. I still can’t believe this happened. Surgery. I’ve never had surgery before, and the thought of something like this hitting me so suddenly terrifies me. One minute I was just nauseous, thinking it would pass, and the next I was being rushed to the hospital with Damien by my side.He’s been here the whole time, holding my hand, watching over me. It’s strange, seeing him like this. I’ve always been confused about his feelings, and always kept my guard up, but now, his attention is unwavering. His care feels different.“Baby?” His voice breaks

THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH SHATTERED
ANNAThe room is dim, lit only by a flickering bulb that barely illuminates the damp walls. My wrists are raw from the coarse ropes that bind me to the chair, and my throat feels like sandpaper. Nicholas’s menacing presence lingers, even when he isn’t in the room. I’ve lost count of how many hours or days I’ve been here.The door creaks open, and Nicholas steps inside, his dark eyes gleaming with malice. His lips curl into a smirk as he approaches, carrying a whip in one hand and a bottle of water in the other. My stomach growls at the sight of it, but I know better than to expect kindness from him.“Well, well, Mrs.Donovan,” he drawls, his voice dripping with mockery. “How’s your stay so far? Cozy?”I glare at him, my lips too dry to form words.He crouches down, holding the water bottle just out of my reach. “Thirsty?”I nod weakly, my pride shattered by my desperation.Nicholas laughs a cruel sound that echoes through the room. “Beg me for it.”My heart sinks. I know he’ll take ple
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH THE PLAN
DAMIEN The walls of my office feel like they’re closing in as I stare blankly at the framed photo of my parents on my desk. It’s been years since I let myself feel this kind of raw, unrelenting pain—the kind that claws at your soul and doesn’t let go. My chest tightens, and before I know it, hot tears blur my vision.The last time I cried like this was the day we buried my parents. But now, I can’t hold it in anymore. I’ve failed Anna. I’ve failed to protect her, and the weight of that realization is unbearable.Evans sits across from me, his usual sharpness dulled by worry. "Damien, you need to pull yourself together. Crying won’t bring her back."His words, though harsh, ground me. I inhale deeply, wiping my face with trembling hands. "I know," I whisper, my voice raw. "But it feels like I’ve lost everything again, Evans. First my parents, and now Anna. She’s... she’s all I have left.”Evans leans forward, his tone softening. "Then we fight. You’re Damien Donovan, damn it. You don’
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH EPIC REVELATION
ANNAThe cold air bites at my cheeks as I step out of the terminal at JFK Airport, clutching my suitcase. The New York skyline looms in the distance, a strange mixture of awe and dread settling over me. Ian’s text with his address burns in my mind. My hands tremble slightly as I hail a cab.Was this the right decision?Doubt claws at me, but I shove it aside. Damien doesn’t care. He hasn’t cared for a long time or so I tell myself. The memory of his angry eyes last night twists something deep in my chest, but I force myself to breathe. This is about me now. About starting over.The cab ride feels endless, and when it finally pulls up to a towering building, my stomach churns. Nicholas’s directions lead me to a penthouse suite, the opulence of the place making me hesitate for a moment before knocking.The door swings open almost immediately, and there he is Nicholas, looking as polished as ever in a tailored suit, his dark eyes sharp and calculating."Anna," he greets, his lips curlin
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH MISSED CHANCE
DAMIENThe moment I read Anna’s message, my entire world shifts."Don’t bother coming home tonight. I won’t be here when you do."The words burn in my mind as I grab my car keys and race out of the office. Every mile I drive feels like a lifetime, the thought of her leaving consuming me. She can’t leave. Not like this. Not without me setting things right.My tyres screech as I pull into the driveway, the house eerily silent. The lights are on, but the emptiness screams louder than words. I storm inside, calling out her name."Anna!"No answer.I head upstairs, my chest tightening as I push open the bedroom door. The sight stops me cold. Her side of the closet is half-empty, drawers open and rifled through. A suitcase is gone. My heart pounds.She’s gone."Miss Rosie!" I bellow, my voice echoing through the halls.My appears at the bottom of the stairs, her face pinched with worry. "Damien, what’s wrong?"I take the steps two at a time, reaching her in seconds. "Where is she? Where’s A
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH THE FLEE
ANNAI pace the living room, phone pressed tightly to my ear, waiting for Lola to pick up. My hands are trembling, a mixture of anger, frustration, and something I can’t quite name boiling inside me. After what feels like an eternity, her familiar voice answers."Hey, girl! What’s up?"Lola’s voice is light and casual, but I can’t match her tone."Lola," I say, my voice strained, "I need to talk to you."Her tone shifts immediately. "What’s wrong? Did something happen with Damien?"I sink into the couch, pulling a blanket over my lap. "Everything. Everything is wrong, Lola. We argued last night, and it was bad. He’s distant, I’m distant it’s like we’re tearing each other apart."I pour everything out, my words tumbling over each other in a rush. I tell her about the fight, about Nicholas, and how Damien discovered the messages. I even admit to avoiding Damien due to her advice on being distant from him. By the time I finish, I’m out of breath, my throat tight from holding back tears.L
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH THE HEARTACHE
ANNAThe room feels suffocatingly empty. I lie in bed, staring at the ceiling, tears sliding silently down my cheeks. The weight of my argument with Damien presses on my chest like a boulder, making breathing hard.How did we get here? One moment, we’re building something fragile yet hopeful; the next, it’s all crumbling beneath our feet.I glance at the door, hoping against hope that he’ll walk in and say something anything to bridge the widening chasm between us. But the house is eerily quiet.When the clock strikes midnight and there’s still no sign of Damien, the pain in my chest intensifies. He’s always been composed, never one to let his emotions get the better of him, but tonight, he was raw, unfiltered. The anger in his eyes, the hurt in his voice it’s all on replay in my mind.I pull the covers up to my chin, curling into myself as the tears come faster now, sobs shaking my body. The truth of it all stings: I messed up. I avoided him, and let Nicholas’s messages fill a void I
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH THE ARGUMENT OVER NICHOLAS
DAMIEN Tonight, I’ve had enough. As I walk into the bedroom, I see her sitting on the bed, scrolling through her phone. My chest tightens. Her phone. Again.“Anna,” I say, my voice low but firm.She looks up, startled. “What?”“We need to talk.”Her expression hardens immediately, and she puts her phone down on the nightstand. “About what?”“You know damn well what.”She crosses her arms, her defensiveness a barrier I know all too well. “If this is about me not talking to you much lately, maybe you should look in the mirror first.”That sparks something in me a simmering anger I’ve been trying to suppress for days. “Oh, so this is my fault now?”“Well, you’ve been distant, Damien! You come home late, barely say a word to me, and act like I don’t even exist. What do you expect me to do?”I take a step closer, my voice rising. “Don’t you dare put this on me? You’ve been avoiding me first! Don’t think I haven’t noticed you shutting me out, glued to your phone like it’s the only thing th
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH THE FLIRTING MESSAGES
DAMIENThe tension in the house is thick enough to choke on. Anna and I move around each other like ghosts, existing in the same space but never really crossing paths. She barely looks at me, her silence a sharp blade that cuts deeper with every passing hour. I tell myself to give her time, but patience has never been my strong suit.It’s late evening when I walk into the living room and find her curled up on the couch, her phone glued to her hand. She doesn’t glance up when I enter, her fingers flying across the screen. I wonder who she’s texting so eagerly, but I push the thought aside. I don’t want to be the paranoid husband.“Anna,” I say, trying to keep my voice neutral.“Hmm?” she murmurs, not looking up.“I’m ordering dinner. Do you want anything?”“I’m fine,” she replies, her tone clipped.I nod, even though she doesn’t see it, and walk into the kitchen. The tension is unbearable, and I feel like I’m suffocating in my own home. I’ve tried to bridge the gap between us, but ever
THE BILLIONAIRE FATHER'S WISH SUDDEN DISTANCE
ANNADamien comes down the stairs, his steps steady and deliberate. I’m sitting at the dining table, scrolling aimlessly through my phone. He stops in the doorway, his presence filling the room even before he speaks.“Morning,” he says, his voice soft but edged with something I can’t quite place.I glance up briefly and mutter, “Morning,” before returning my attention to the screen.“Any plans for today?” he asks, trying to sound casual.“Not really,” I reply, my tone clipped.He pauses as if waiting for me to say more, but when I don’t, he pulls out a chair and sits across from me.“Anna,” he says after a moment, leaning forward slightly. “What’s going on?”I don’t answer right away, pretending to be engrossed in my phone.“Don’t do this,” he says, his voice firmer now. “If something’s bothering you, just tell me.”I sigh, finally looking up at him. His eyes are searching mine, filled with an earnestness that makes me uncomfortable. “It’s nothing, Damien. I just need some space.”“Sp
