NEW YORK ~SEBASTIAN~ “Did you call Arianna?” I asked Anastasia on our way downstairs for breakfast in the morning. As usual, she rolled her eyes at the question and showed no enthusiasm that I asked about her 5 year old daughter that she hadn’t seen for an entire month. It was so weird to me t
NEW YORK ~SEBASTIAN~ “So, are we going?” Anastasia asked when she found me reading the book. She brought me back to earth, and I cleared my throat and tilted my head towards her. “Of course, I think you were right. She’s a wonderful writer,” I put the book down and got up from the couch. “I
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ The flight from California to New York was nerve-wracking. I kept looking at my children and wondering if they knew that the man who fathered them didn’t even have a clue that they existed. I hoped that the years could slow down, and I wouldn’t have to sit them down one day to
NEW YORK ~SEBASTIAN~ “Good afternoon, everyone. I welcome you all to the first day of my open book festival. The name is Sienna Williams, but you can all call me Simona Middleton as per my pen name…” The moment I saw her face and heard her voice, I got lost out of reality, and my mind just shut
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ “What’s going on with you, Sienna? You’ve been acting strange all evening,” Zac nagged behind my back as we headed off to bed after putting the kids to sleep. “What do you mean?” “You kept slipping in and out of reality, and I kept nudging on your shoulder.” “I’m just tired
NEW YORK ~SEBASTIAN~ “You are not going anywhere, Sebby!” Anastasia followed me down the stairs. I just kept ignoring her and headed to the garage to get inside my car, and before I knew it, she got in with me. “What is wrong with you?! She moved on with her life and has kids! Two kids!” I loo
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ When we got inside our hotel bedroom, Zac took off his jacket and sat down on the bed with a heavy sigh. I just knew that it was about to go down, and he was not going to let it go when he met Sebastian talking with me. It was written all over his face while we were in the ca
NEW YORK ~SEBASTIAN~ As soon as I closed the front door after walking inside my house, I heard sniffles in the living room. I rolled my eyes and swore under my breath at my stupidity for thinking that it was ever a good idea to give Anastasia the spare keys. I walked slowly to the living room,
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ Sebastian and I were pacing up and down outside Daphne's hospital ward, impatiently waiting for her doctor to come and tell us if she was going to be alright. After we found her unconscious in her apartment in Michigan, Sebastian suggested that we fly her over to New York and a
MICHIGAN ~DAPHNE~ "Come on, I won't hurt you. I know you want this as much as I do, love," Elias whispered in my ear in the bathroom. "I can't, Elias. Luke is sleeping, and besides that, I gave birth 5 weeks ago and can't -" "You can suck my dick if I can't penetrate," he said as he licked my e
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ "No, baby, no," I cried. "You can't do this to me. Not now. We have a baby on the way. We need you. We all need you, please," I leaned down on his chest and cried. He was bleeding and losing a lot of blood. But when I heard the police siren sound in the distance, I felt a bit r
MICHIGAN ~DAPHNE~ "Mr. Martinez sent us to bring you this, Miss," two delivery boys reported as they gave me two boxes of gifts. "Oh, thank you." I smiled at them as I took the gifts and closed the door after I was done signing on their clipboard. It had only been two days, but I couldn't cou
NEW YORK ~ARIANNA~ "Tell me when you're home," Noah stated as I hopped out of the Uber outside my house. I had forgotten that I left through the backyard gate as I went to the main gate and asked for security to open up for me. "Yes, I'm home. You can chill now, Rambo." "Rambo?" I chuckled
MICHIGAN ~DAPHNE~ I hardly slept a wink that night, scared of what could happen to me and little Luke if I even closed my eyes for an hour after receiving threatening texts from Luke's wife. After tossing and turning non-stop, I finally got up from the bed, went to the closet, and started packin
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ "You're in my den, assholes." Lawrence snarled. "It's either my way or the highway." Sebastian and I were caught off guard when four men emerged from hiding in the room and pointed their guns at us. I swore under my breath, just thinking that we were in deep shit the moment I
MICHIGAN ~DAPHNE~ (KNOCK KNOCK) I jumped when I heard the sudden knock on the door late in the afternoon. Ever since my last call with Ian last night, it had been quiet, and I was so sure that he had decided to stay out of my hair and left me alone. I was still healing from giving birth and
NEW YORK ~SIENNA~ "Don't worry, once your husband gets here, maybe I will go easy on you." Lawrence whispered in my ear after getting me tied up on a chair. "I never did anything to you. Why are you doing this to me? I don't understand because you're the one who ended our relationship when you f
