PIERCE'S POV "I can't believe that you are going to be a father." Stan said as soon as we got back to my place after the celebration we had with Kiana and Lucy.Honestly, I am so fucking happy but at the same time, it feels like an important part of my life was missing today... I wanted Ashley to be there with us to celebrate but I couldn't tell her about the pregnancy or even invite her to celebrate with us because Kiana insinuated that she might be responsible for what has been happening... I mean I briefly suspected her too but I think she's innocent, she is my sister and she can't be crushing on me right?"I can't believe it too man, I am so happy and so scared at the same time." I looked around the house to make sure that Ashley is not home even though I didn't see her car in the garage.I trust her but Kiana wants the news of our baby to be a secret till she starts showing and I just want to do what she wants, so I don't want Ashley to know yet even though I am dying to tell he
KIANA'S POV "Wow, you look good." I complimented as Lucy stepped into my room looking dressed and beautiful in her wine color elegant one-shoulder sequin bodycon mini dress, it has asymmetrical neck and it's made of knit polyester fabric... It's suits her perfectly and her nude makeup compliments her outfit."Thanks, sit let me help you with your makeup." I dried up my body and sat down in front of the dresser as she worked her magic on my face."I still can't believe that you guys succeeded into talking me to continue with the launch party." I whined.It's been a few days since I got the threatening text from the mystery lady and since I told Pierce about our baby and all I wanted to do is to cancel the launch party and hide away in my room for as long as possible... Protecting my baby is the only paramount thing to me and if it means locking myself up in the house just to be safe, then I will do it but Lucy and Pierce insisted that I can't put my life on hold, hence why we are gett
ASHLEY'S POV I can't believe that they are really keeping things away from me, I think it's about time I play the ultimate card before I lose my hold on him. I wanted to take things slow but not anymore, they are being conscious of me when I didn't give them a reason to but now I am going to give them a reason to watch their backs... They didn't invite me to the spa opening launch but I will be there."Are you sure you really want to go?" Ken asked the moment he returned from my kitchen with a glass of juice."Yes I will be there, I need to let them know they can't keep things from me." I pointed out just as I finished my makeup... I did something loud and bold, it's a statement makeup if there is anything like that."That's the problem girl, if you show up uninvited, you are only giving them more reasons to be wary of you." Ken is right but I don't give a fuck.Everything I do has always to be with Pierce and to make him notice me but now he is avoiding and lying to me because of Ki
PIERCE'S POV Nothing about how Ashley acted a while a go was normal, the way she confidently strolled in here even though she wasn't invited is so strange and it made me really uncomfortable... What's really up with her?There was a look in her eyes when she saw us here, the way she spoke and the way she looked at me was all shades of scary, something is really wrong with her and I need to find out. The fact that she said she wanted to talk to me, makes me really nervous and uncomfortable."Relax bro, you look nervous." Stan pointed out."Am I that obvious?" I asked curiously because the last thing I need is for Kiana to notice anything, I am glad she's even busy with her event at the moment."Yeah, you are worried about Ashley right?""Of course, did you take a proper look at her, it's like she's a different person. I don't think I know her anymore and it scares me." I explained because Ashley and I used to be really close but now she's so different from the fun, goofy loving sister
PIERCE'S POV I made sure to take my time to find what to wear just to punish her for thinking she can call the fucking shots before I finally stepped out... I met her waiting in the living room and then I went to the bar to get a glass of bourbon before joining her in the living room.I know that I said I don't want to drink around her but she's doing my head in and I can't deal with her right now without a proper drink and I am only going to have a glass, nothing more."What is so important that has made you to be fucking rude and disrespectful?" I asked as I put my glass on the coffee table. "Now that you waited for a few minutes, did the world roll over?" I asked challengingly as I stared at her."No but it will certainly rollover when you hear what I am about to say." The smile and confidence in her face is fucking scary and I am dreading what she's about to say."I'm pregnant Pierce.""Well congratulations but you are telling me this because?" I asked curiously because to the be
PIERCE'S POV I paced around Stan's living room, flustered and dazed at the turn of events. I can't believe that a one night of drunken mistake that I can't even remember has ruined my life and it's definitely going to ruin my home because Kiana won't be able to forgive this. I mean she already thinks that Ashley is a bad person and all this will do is to confirm to Kiana that she was right about Ashley. "So wait, Ashley is really pregnant for you?" He asked in disbelief and all I can do is to nod. "But why didn't she use morning after pills?" He asked the same question that I asked myself on my way to his house and I still don't know the answer to that question. "I don't know man, everything that has happened so far is an enigma to me and I am so fucking confused." I explained as I continued pacing around. "This is not good." Stan said and he started pacing too. It's obvious he is shocked and confused as well. "Well the deed as been done and now we have to find a solution to t
PIERCE'S POV Wait, is he crazy or is this some silly joke? Why will he suggest something that ridiculous, how can I look my parents in the eye and say something like that."You are joking right?" "Of course not, I am serious man. You have already tried your best and with everything you have explained to me, she's not going to budge and the only other alternative I can think of is telling your parents, I am sure they can put an end to this madness." He explained but I can't.All hope drained out of me as I sat on the couch and put my head in my shaky hands. "How did I get to this point?" I murmured to myself.My chest tightened with despair as I thought of the possibility of telling my parents. "I can't, I can't do it." My parents will be so disappointed in me and I can't have them look at me with so much disappointment, it will kill me. "I honestly can't do it. How do I tell them that the same girl that has been staying with me for years, my little sister and I had sex and she's pre
PIERCE'S POV Stan and I walked into my parents house and I have never been more ashamed to visit them than now... My phone started ringing and I checked the caller ID and I noticed that it's Kiana again. I wish I could just pick the call and tell her what's happening but I can't, it will hurt her and she's pregnant, I can't afford to hurt her like that over the phone."Don't worry man, everything will be fine." Stan assured me when he noticed that I didn't pick the call again but I know he is only trying to be supportive.There is no way anything can be done with the load of crap I am about to dump on them and it's sad because they don't deserve to have kids that will bring shame to them after all their sacrifices over the years but I guess the deed has already been done."Pierce, Stan, what are you guys doing here this early?" Mom asked the moment we entered the living room and she saw us... She has a big smile on her face and it hurts that I am here to ruin it."Good morning ma'am
PIERCE'S POV "Was that Ashley?" Stan asked when he entered my office after Ashley left."Yeah, she just left." Her last statement before she walked out of my office is still bugging me, what does she mean by I will regret it?"I don't understand, what was she doing here?" Stan asked as he sat in front me.Honestly, I think I have been a burden to everyone especially Stan, I am always releasing my stress on him and it doesn't make sense. He hasn't even had the opportunity to share any personal thing with me, I don't even know what's going on in his life. It's has always been about me and it's not okay... He had a crush on Ashley for a long time and I haven't even stopped to ask how all of this makes him feel, I am a horrible friend."It's a lot of bullshit, don't worry about it." "What do you mean by that? If I didn't want to know or care about your mess, then I wouldn't have asked." I know he cares but I feel like a selfish person."Look Stan, I feel bad. I feel like a horrible per
ASHLEY'S POV The look on her face was so satisfying and I am so glad that I got the opportunity to tell her and with the way she cried, it's obvious that her chapter is finally over and now, I can have Pierce all to myself.I drove directly to Pierce's office after I left Kiana's office, I am tired of playing games with him... I have put in so much effort over the years to have him and this is the closest I have gotten so far, so I won't let him go. Enough of all the drama, it's time to make a decision.As soon as I got to his company, I stepped bout of the car and I made a beeline to his office. "Ashley, what are you doing here?" Pierce asked as soon as he noticed me."I came to see you." I said as I sat down on the chair in front of him."What is it this time, do you have another secret revelation for me?" He asked sarcastically and I know that him finding out randomly about us not having the same parents must be painful for him but I didn't have a choice, been siblings was restric
KIANA'S POV My day and work was going smoothly but I haven't spoken to Pierce this morning, so I decided to call and check up on him."Hi love, how are you doing?" He asked as soon as he picked my call. His voice is not as cheerful as it use to be and I am not surprised considering everything that has been happening with him lately, honestly it's a lot for one person to handle."I'm fine baby, how are you?""I'm okay, I just got to work a while ago." That's weird, it's already eleven o'clock and he usually goes to work around nine in the morning."Why is that? You are late, did something happen?" I asked curiously."Not really, it's just that I slept at Stan's place because I don't want to see Ashley and I don't have my clothes at his place, so I had to do a little shopping this morning before work." "Oh I see, that's fine. Have you had something to eat?" I asked because yesterday he didn't eat and even when I made him follow me to the restaurant, he still didn't eat much."Not yet
KIANA'S POV "What are you thinking about?" Lucy asked when she joined me in the living room and I wonder how she realized that I was thinking.I am yet to tell her what Pierce told me at the store today about Ashley, it's just weird saying it out loud."A lot, I am thinking about a lot of things." I said truthfully.The whole issue with Ashley is a lot and it's very offensive and I can't even be upset because I have to support Pierce seeing as it's not exactly his fault. I mean he didn't think is sister was stupid enough to have a crush on him and even act on it, I mean who in their right senses will think of something like that, so I can't blame him."What's wrong, you know you can talk to me. Is it about the baby or are you having issues with Pierce again?" She asked worriedly as she put down her coffee mug and gave me her full attention."No, it's none of that. It's about Ashley, you were right all along. Ashley is the mystery lady and she has been ruining all his relationships fo
KIANA'S POV "Oh Kiana, I am so happy we were able to start up this business, did you see the number of customers we have had today and to think people are still waiting."Lucy said as soon as she entered the office.It has been a long day, so I decided to rest a little in the office. "Do we need to hire more people because I don't want to keep the customers waiting for too long." I want us to give a good impression, so that they can come back next time."No, I think we are fine for now. I just came to get bottle water, I will join them and we will be done in no time." "Okay cool, I just want to rest a little, I will join you too." I said just as Pierce stepped into the office.What's going on with him? He looks so stressed and all over the place, he seems worried and the way he came in was like he ran here or something."Pierce, how are you?" Lucy greeted after grabbing a bottle of water."I'm fine Lucy, how are you?""I'm okay, I will be outside." She said just before she stepped ou
PIERCE'S POV Today has been a lot and I am glad that I took Stan's advice and I told my parents but the outcome is very horrible, I can't get over the fact that the people I have known all my life as my parents turned out not to be my biological parents but I think the most painful part is that Ashley used it as a weapon, she thought that breaking the news was going to change my decision but she was wrong because no matter what happens between us, I will always and only see her as my little sister, so she broke the news and hurt our parents for nothing, it was a total waste."How did it go man?" Stan asked as soon as I got back to the office.I don't even know why I am here because with all of this mess, it's obvious that I won't be of any use here."It was bad man, terrible. Ashley is out of control and there is no saving her." I explained as I sat behind my desk."Really, are you saying that your dad couldn't do anything?" "Yeah, no one can do anything. In fact she said something
PIERCE'S POV Hehehe, I laughed even though it's not funny. "Is that a joke because it's not funny?" I asked as I got up from the couch and walked up to her.I can't believe she just said that, just because she desperately wants to marry me, what's all this drama?"Are you okay baby, do you need help. You know you can tell me right?" Mom asked worriedly as she got up and touched Ashley's face."I am sorry but I know what I am saying and nothing is wrong with me. Pierce is not my brother and you both know it." She repeated the awful sentence again and it broke my heart. "Pierce is not your son." She said without mincing words while staring at my parents and they are staring back at her in shock and I don't know if they are shocked because she's saying the truth or they are shocked at the nonsense flying out of her mouth."Why do you want to marry him so bad that you are saying this about your brother, of course he is our son." Dad said and it somehow made me relax a little."You guys c
PIERCE'S POV Mom instructed the maid to make us breakfast but with everything happening, I couldn't eat. I don't have the appetite for food, I am just anxiously waiting for Ashley to show up and hopefully, my dad can fix the mess going on."Are you sure you don't want to eat?" Stan asked from the dining table."Yeah, I am fine." I am not fine, my head is pounding, my temperature is high and I am hungry but I can't find it in me to eat or stay calm, I am a mess.My phone started ringing again and even without checking, I already know that it's Kiana. She's obviously worried and she won't stop calling until I pick her call, so I decided to pick up."Hi love." "Baby, are you okay? I have been calling you since morning, is everything okay?" She asked worriedly and I feel stupid for not picking her call since."Sorry, I have been really busy and I wasn't close to my phone, are you okay?" I asked curiously because she's obviously stressed and it's thanks to me."Yeah, I am okay. Lucy and
PIERCE'S POV Stan and I walked into my parents house and I have never been more ashamed to visit them than now... My phone started ringing and I checked the caller ID and I noticed that it's Kiana again. I wish I could just pick the call and tell her what's happening but I can't, it will hurt her and she's pregnant, I can't afford to hurt her like that over the phone."Don't worry man, everything will be fine." Stan assured me when he noticed that I didn't pick the call again but I know he is only trying to be supportive.There is no way anything can be done with the load of crap I am about to dump on them and it's sad because they don't deserve to have kids that will bring shame to them after all their sacrifices over the years but I guess the deed has already been done."Pierce, Stan, what are you guys doing here this early?"
