Anastasia POV:I opened my eyes and glanced around the room, the drapes were stopping the sunlight and the ambience was so cozy that I never want to step out of the bed. "You up, sleeping beauty?" His gravelly voice hit me and I didn’t know until he spoke that he is also hers. I tilted my head to look at him, he had taken off the coat but was still dressed in formal clothes. His hair was in place and he looked as sexy as ever.I smiled and forced myself to sit, "Yeah. What time is it?" I stifled a yawn as I asked. "1 pm." He carelessly said. "Wait, what!" I was shocked. I can't believe that I slept more than 4 hours. "Oh my God. Why didn't you wake me up?" There was so much that I needed to do. Sleeping for so long is a luxury which I can't afford, at least not now."Calm down." Ryan said, "I know you are busy but don't forget how important it is for you to rest. I can't let you neglect your health." He reminded me, my hand immediately went to touch the belly. I am such a bad mother
Anastasia POV: I wore a black dress. My belly didn't look that big in it and I did a little makeup. Samuel and Sarah were by my side. Sarah especially looked nervous because I haven't told her everything. It's not that I don't trust her but I didn't want to involve many people in my plan. Ryan also agreed on that and yes, it wouldn't be wrong to say that I am not anxious. Indeed! I am but looking at Ryan made me feel better. No matter how much I think, it is crazy to believe that he pulled enough evidence to make a company go bankrupt. To be honest, it is scary to have him as a rival or an enemy but being on his good side comes with amazing benefits. "Are you sure I will do this well?" I wrapped my arm around his neck. Samuel and Sarah walked out of the waiting room, giving us some privacy. His arm immediately snaked around my waist, "Of course, you will, sweetheart. You are half Weaver and a half Logan. Don't doubt yourself." He leaned down to kiss my forehead. I smiled brightl
Ryan POV: Ana finally drifted to sleep. The peace on her face was back and I didn't imagine I would be so relieved to see that. The past few days have been really hectic and exhausting. I surfed through the internet and posted positive articles and comments. They were all supporting and apologising to Stones. Yeah, Ana did go through a rough patch but I guess that made her stronger. However, whoever was responsible for this, I am dragging them to hell. Especially the person who tried to attack her at the press conference. I can't imagine seeing her or the baby getting hurt. That fucker is in the custody of the guards and I am gonna skin him alive with the rusted knife to prolong the pain. Furthermore, the stock prices of Stone was recovering and Sandra and her fucking brand wasn't going to survive. Media, the public and the previous victims of her plagiarising scheme, were going to get our revenge. Ana wanted to check everything on her own but I insisted that she should be resti
Anastasia POV:I talked with Mom, Dad and Beth. They all were genuinely concerned about me. To be honest, I don't know how I was able to go through such a time. Trust me, most of the credit goes to Ryan. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be able to pull myself together and get out of the mental breakdown. "Why don't you take a break, Ana? You are only a month away from your D-day. This isn't good for your health." Mom said. Her beautiful face was filling the screen. Worry dripping from those big and round eyes.I smiled and nodded, "Yeah, you are right. I also want to focus on myself and my family. I have asked Samuel. He will be handling everything for me at work and for the time being, we will be taking only the custom made orders. My design team can handle that much on their own." I had everything planned. This company means too much now. It brought me together with Ryan. I was able to prove myself to my parents. People recognize me and my work now. Furthermore, it made me strong
Ryan POV:The second I stepped inside the home, Ana rushed and wrapped her arms around me. I stumbled because of the force but immediately regained my balance and hugged her back. Everything which has been over burdening me regarding Sarah, it vanished into thin air, causing my lips to tug up. I kissed the crown of her head while she took a long whiff of my scent. My smile grew even more, "Is everything alright? Why such a warm welcome?" I teased and she looked up, without breaking the contact. "Can't I do that?" Her brows arched, "I missed you." She pouted and my heart swelled inside my chest. "If I knew my wife would be missing me so much, I would have come earlier." My voice was huskier than ever. I would be wrong to say that keeping my hands off her is not killing me. Trust me until she is done with the birth, my ball will be permanently blue and secondly, I feel like cheating whenever I think of touching myself. Everything about me is for her and the same goes for Ana. She sho
Anastasia POV:Today is the party. I decided on wearing a simple beige colored dress. It was off shoulder and it took a lot of convincing to let Ryan wear me this. Since it was a maternity dress, I can't wear it again and with the little puppy eyes, my man agreed. I smiled in victory and stepped in the bathroom immediately before he would change his mind. I took a long shower and tied a towel around my body. Ryan had already changed into his navy suit but his jacket was on the bed. Upon seeing me, his eyes lit up and I turned into a puddle right there. "Sit here. I will dry your hair." He patted on the stool in front of the vanity and I did that. Soon, the soft touch of his fingers and the warm air from the blow dryer sent a wave of tranquillity. When he was done, he kissed the hollow under my chin. "You are all good." "Thank you." I beamed. I must have saved a country in my past life to have Ryan as my husband. To be honest, I never used to believe such things but now I don't need
Anastasia POV: "So, which loser are you dating this time?" Zayn hid the ugliness which he was feeling and asked Beth. 'This is going to be a long night.' I thought. "What does it have to do with you? And why the hell are you getting under my skin?" Beth snapped. I inhaled sharply. "Believe me, he is far better than a spoiled rich brat, like someone." She rolled her eyes. "Touché." Zayn smirked and sipped on the champagne. His calmness added fuel to the fire. Beth gritted her teeth so hard that it was a miracle that didn't fall off. "Don't grind your teeth so much. How will he kiss your toothless mouth then? You are just giving him another chance to cheat." Zayn hit the nerve again. "I can't believe I have to be found out in that state by this bastard." Beth murmured and Zayn's mouth split into a satisfactory grin. "Guys, stop it. You are scaring the baby. It is kicking me in the gut." I put my hand on the bump and lied. Well, the baby is kicking..
Ryan POV:For once, my life was so good that it scared the hell out of me. I have never been so afraid of anything before because I didn't have anything to lose now, I have. Ana, the baby, our love and the happy family. Deep down the feeling of relentlessness is clawing inside me. There is this constant vibe which is keeping me on thin ice. Furthermore, I haven't told her about Sarah yet. I can't imagine her reaction and she is in the last month of her pregnancy, for God's sake. I can't give her stress. I sighed and massaged my temples.We moved to the villa and life is as dreamy as it can get. I try to spend all of my free time with Ana. My constant teasing, her never ending planning for the baby, it is perfect. This is all I needed in my life. Ana and I even decided the name, for both cases, which is a surprise for now. I wrapped up my work in the home office- where I am mostly working currently- and went to find her. I gasped when I found her in a situation that was enough to h
