Anastasia POV:

I picked out a floral printed v-necked, full sleeves dress from my wardrobe. Before, I did not want to go to dinner but now, I want to.

I took a shower and changed into the dress that I had picked out. I let my hair loose and dabbed some makeup on my face to look presentable. However, when it was my turn to pick out the shoes, I grabbed 4 inches long heels, but then something clicked in my mind.

'You have to be really careful at the early stages of the pregnancy. A little negligence can result in a miscarriage.' Dr. Crystal told me when I went to see her. 'We can't even call it a baby yet. It is so tiny and fragile that ultrasound is also not possible.' She added and I took a careful note of her instructions.

So, I put them back onto their place and instead took out a pair of plain sandals. After making sure I looked fine, I went to the sitting area. Mom and Dad were waiting for me.

"Do I look okay, Mom?" For some reason, I started to get nervous and held the hem of

    Anastasia POV:After dinner, I don't know where Ryan went. He left the table after he got a call and now I am looking for him like a maniac in this humongous place. I climbed the stairs and went to the first floor. I could not help but get impressed by the beauty of this place again. However, I put the urge to admire his home on the side and looked for him. There were many doors on the first floor. I contemplated what to do as I had no idea which one of those rooms was his. With a thumping heart, I knocked on the first door on the right side and soon, it opened. I found him standing right in front of me. The scent of his expensive cologne wrapped me up and I lifted my eyelids to take in his astonishing looks. His hair was randomly falling on his forehead like he had been running his fingers in them while his dark eyes were deep and terrifying. He looked at me with confusion. "What is it?" His eyes squinted. "Uhm-" Now that I am here and I have to reveal the biggest secret of my l

I intend on apologizing to her for my behaviour at the party but my throat turned bitter when she stood beside Zayn after I choked him. She was worried about him and did not bat an eye although my ribs were killing me as Zayn had punched me brutally. I came to my room after dinner because I got a call but soon I was surprised to see her standing at my door. Damn! If that didn't turn me on. When she came to my room.... I had all kinds of erotic thoughts in my head. However, when she told me why she was here, I felt like my head was blown off. What the fu*k was she telling me? She is with my child? I wanted to shake her really hard so she would come back to her senses.... most importantly I wanted to ask why she let me come inside her when she wasn't on birth control, but my mouth was tied. I was already rude to her by telling her to abort the child. The piercing pain I witnessed in her eyes, it ma

    Anastasia POV:On our way back home, none of us said a single word. However, from time to time, Mom and Dad's sighs would fill the air and each time, I felt really guilty for disappointing them. The embarrassment which they have faced tonight because of me, it was killing me from inside. In fact, I would feel better if they would shout or yell at me but the silent treatment which they are giving me, that's really painful. "I am sorry." I whispered after we arrived home. "We will talk later, Ana. Have some rest." Dad said to me and they made their way to their bedroom while I stood there for a long time. My feet started to hurt but my mind was still clouded with his thoughts. Shock, fear, hate, surprise, disdain and pain... I have witnessed it all in his eyes tonight. He was right, I am the one at fault here. I was the one who encouraged him to have s*x with me. Even though he stopped in the middle, I continued to urge him to finish what he started. Tears rolled down my eyes and I

    Ryan POV: I spent the whole night smoking and drinking. Still, it wasn't enough to dominate the fire that is burning inside me. I still can't believe that she is pregnant. At least she should have let me know if she wasn't on contraception. I would have been more careful. But I should also have thought about it. 'She was a virgin, you di*khead.' My thoughts scolded me and I exhaled deeply. "I am the one at fault here." I announced the verdict and put the cigarette butt in between my lips and took a long drag of it. When I exhaled, the smoke surrounded me and it calmed my nerves to some extent. 'Why the hell is she so hell bent on giving birth to it? Can't she just get rid of the problem and make it easy?' I sighed and went to the balcony. I leaned on the railing and lit another cigarette. 'Dad just started to recognize my efforts at work. She does not have to ruin everything for me. I will never forgive her for the humiliation that I have faced because of her.' I made up my min

However, I also got nervous. Ryan will be coming to my office today and I don't know how I am going to talk to him about marriage. 'It will be fine.' I assured myself and grabbed my things to leave.

    Ryan POV:When I came to talk to her, I was definitely in favor of marriage with her but the conversation took another turn and she got offended as I called the baby a peanut sized thing. I can't believe that she has gotten so attached to something which she hasn't seen yet. The pain which appeared on her face made my heart clench in my chest. Furthermore, something inside me stirred when I saw her retching. She was going through more than what I have. "Let's get married." It did not take me more than a few seconds to reach this conclusion. But I made it clear that I cannot be bound to a loveless marriage for an entire life. "You are right, Ryan. It is necessary for us to get married. For the baby, for our companies but later things will be different. If we ever want to separate from each other... I am sure our parents will understand us." She added and I could not agree any less with her. "You are smarter than what I thought." I teased her. She groaned and rolled her eyes. "Wha

"Why?" I asked Mom with my usual widely opened eyes. Mom glared at me, "What do you mean.. why? She wants to talk to you. You are going to be her daughter in law." She showed me the mirror of reality while my lips were tightly sealed."Mom, this is so sudden. Can't you guys give me some time to adjust first?" I almost pleaded with her. "Ana is right. We shouldn't force her." Dad chimed and I gratefully looked at him. He winked but we were forgetting here that the ultimate power at Logan's residence is Grace. "I can't ask her not to come." She announced. The little twinkling hope I had, it died down. I sighed and grabbed my things before going to my room. There is so much going on in my life at the moment that I can't comprehend which thing needs my attention more. I took a shower, dried m

Ana held my hand so tight that her knuckles went pale while my fingers turned blue as the circulation had been cut off. But that doesn't matter. She is popping my baby out of her vagina... I am in no position to complain. "Push." The doctor said. I put my other hand on her too and gave it a firm squeeze. "You can do it." I whispered and leaned down to kiss her sweaty forehead. "This is so-" her breathing was shallow and the tears were rolling from the corner of her eyes. Ana was practically wretched at this point and damn... I shouldn't have forced her into having another baby."We are never doing this again." I promised her and even in the exhausting state, she managed to smile. I can't help but fall harder for her every single second of my life. "You realised this really soon and I thought that you want a whole soccer team." She mocked me and on the

I chewed my bottom lip and sent her a message. Ana: Where in the world are you? If you will not come to Kai's birthday, then don't even bother to talk to me. I threatened her with the hope that she might be willing to tell me whatever the hell is going on with her. I sighed as there was no reply even after 10 minutes. "Ana, we need to cut the cake. Everyone is waiting." Ryan said to me and when I looked around, it was true. The kids were about to fall asleep. I gave him a nod and Ryan held Kai in his arm and wrapped the other arm around my waist while we went to the area where we are supposed to cut the cake. All the attention was suddenly on us. The phone in my hand buzzed and when I glanced at the shining name on the screen, I immediately opened the message. Beth: I am really sorry, Ana. Something urgent cam

Just because I have the people who love me and support me. Tonight, I was the first one to get ready. Since it is Kai's birthday, we are having a party at our villa. Just with the family and friends, with the people whom I can call mine. I looked at Ryan who was putting cufflinks in his sleeves and smiles but that smile faded upon listening to him, "Just because I can't have you, it doesn't mean you can act cheeky with me. Stop f**king me with your eyes before I change my mind and put you up to something good." His gaze bore in mine and I instantly looked away. After years of marriage, just a little eye contact is more than enough to make me feel butterflies in my stomach. "You should get ready instead of running your mouth. Our guests will be here anytime." I tried to act sassy when I knew

    Anastasia POV:We enjoyed the time which we finally got for ourselves fully. Having s*x practically everywhere in the yacht was indeed the highlight of the vacation. The weather wasn't cold anymore. Thus, we laid under the bare sky, with our bodies tangled together and staring at the sky. I don't remember being this peaceful and calm in my life before. "Ana." He called me and I lifted my head from his chest to look at his handsome face. "Hmm?" I hummed both in response and at the feeling of his fingers that were running through my hair. All of my nerves were excited but relaxed too. "Are you happy?" Okay! This isn't what I expected. My eyes narrowed in confusion but I smiled looking at him, "What kind of a question is it? And here I was feeling giddy at the thought that you might slip another big ass diamond in my finger." I joked. "Ugh-" He winced, "What is it with women and their love for diamonds? You practically work with them 365 days a year and you still want a diamond rin

Although I want to take Kai with us too but thinking that I am not giving much attention to Ryan these days... it didn't feel good to take him with us. I also wanted to enjoy some time which belonged exclusively to us. So, last night, Zayn took Kai with him as he will be staying with his grandparents these days and Ryan, he is over the moon today. "I can't believe that such a thing is really happening." He said excitedly, like a little teenager who is excited to go on a field trip with his friends but I guess being with your lover is even better. "Why are you acting like you have never been on a trip before?" I teased him as I arched a brow and applied some blush on my cheeks. "I have never been on one. Not with a girl before." He confessed while putting his swimsuit in the suitcase. My hand halted and I looked at him through the reflection of the mirror, trying my best to understand that

If this is what you want.I smiled and wrapped my arm around her waist, pulling her closer into me while she sat on the bed with her legs crossed and all of her attention was on Kai. However, upon feeling my touch, she squealed and Kai frowned. "What are you doing?" She playfully slapped my shoulder. "Aren't you getting way too violent, sweetheart?" I said darkly, "And don't tell me I can't hug you in front of Kai. Kids need to see their parents being affectionate to learn something from them." I added. "Because there are so many things which I can't do in front of him. I can't say any bad words, I can't talk dirty."She scoffed, "What a creative way to justify your actions." "I am not justifying.
