         I sauntered out of the elevator. Branton and his companion were following me. My eyes were looking at only one person. She was sitting in front of the desktop with a little frown. 

       "Becca," I said out loud. 

       "Oh my god!" Her smile replaced the frown. She got on her feet and rushed at me. She hugged me tightly, "What are you doing here? I was going to come to see you at your home." She said as she pulled back her head.

       "I was missing you." I smiled. She held my hand and led me toward her desk. 

       I sat down on the chair. She wasn't going to hear me. So no use arguing with her, "I'm so sorry. I I... My mother was hospitalized. I had to go. She got a kidney transplant." She said with sadness on her face. I did not know anything about her family. She mostly talked about her mothe

    I tucked my hair in a bun as I walked down the stairs. I woke up when Agat was ready to go to his office. "Good morning," I said with a smile. He turned, still grasping his file. He put it down on the table and paced toward the mattress. He glanced at me with a curl on his lips. He placed his hand on my jaw and pressed his lips softly on my lips, "How are you feeling?" He asked, drawing his head back. My cheeks felt warm to me, "I'm good," I shyly said. His head snapped at the table as it began to ring. He took long strides and answered, "I'll be there," he slipped it in his pocket. He gathered his files," Are you going?" I asked. "Yes, I'll be back soon." He said as he looked at me. I smiled and nodded. He paced toward me and pecked on my cheek before pacing out of the room.

    I rolled over and put my feet on the carpet. My sonography date was coming near. My stomach was still small, but I could feel the changes in my body. I wasn't prepared for it. But I loved my baby and my husband. I could do it, I pushed away from the thoughts of pounds, I was gaining in the upcoming time. Yesterday was my appointment with my mother in law in the hospital. She declared me absolutely fine. There was a scar on my shoulder but it wasn't that bad. I wouldn't mind wearing an out-shoulder dress. My scars were my beauty. I gathered my hair in my hand and twisted it, making a loose bun of it at my nape. Clenching my phone, I walked downstairs. Victoria was already sitting in the dining hall. I didn't like this life where I had to just sit and do nothing and spend my husband's money. "Hi!" She smiled at me, "You didn't mean

    My dress was matching with Becca's. She put on a white belt around her waist to show her curves. It was so sudden, entirely unexpected. If I wasn't wrong. Victoria was getting her happiness. She didn't sleep last night when she tugged me with her to her room to show me her wedding gown. I brushed my finger on the wavy strands touching my cheek. My curly hair was wrapped in a loose bun. I swiped mascara on my lashes. "Aly, I haven't told you about him." She said as she ran the hairbrush in her straight hair. I batted my eyes and put it back, "The one who makes you glow," I smirked as I glanced at her. She ran her finger on the screen of her phone. She blushed as she stared at it, "Here!" Excitedly, she turned the screen of her phone at me. A tall man was smiling in the picture d

    Agat accompanied me to my first appointment. My mother in law was already present in the room. She smiled at me, "How are you doing?" She kissed my head and looked at my stomach. It wasn't flat anymore."We're doing great, mom." I placed my hand on my stomach.She nodded with a smile. I wanted to check on the baby earlier, but I couldn't ask them to hurry. Mom was a doctor and she knew better than me. I had seen Victoria's report. My baby would look like a dot, I guess.Everything was good between Agat and his family. They had seen it on the news channels.I was already wearing a loose gown. I laid on the

    I shoved her thoughts away before stepping in my office. I was extremely worried about her. She was pregnant with our twins. It wasn't easy to rein my thoughts. "Mark," I said as I strode behind the desk. "Sir," He extended his hand. He was tall and slim. He always wore black leather jacket. I hired this private agent when my wife got shot. I was actually disappointed with him as he was the best in his job and he couldn't gather anything against him. I did a handshake, "Any progress?" I asked. "Yes, sir." He said with a terse nod. I exhaled, "Please," I gestured with my hand at the seat. I put the phone on the desk. I was waiting for her call. Though, the guards were with her. Still, she was fragile. She didn't want to accept it. Her body was changing. I lo

    I closed my eyes, leaning against the headrest. We were back in our manor where we shifted after our wedding. Agat was so possessive that he began to do this business from home. I could see fear in his eyes sometimes. We both wanted to forget that day. Johnny was in jail. Police arrested him. They had also put the murder charges of his late wife. I was really feeling sorry for Victoria. A few minutes later, my eyes opened as I heard him talking on the phone. My wounds were absolutely fine now but there were marks. After bath, I hid them behind a thin layer of the foundation. He was wearing simple black jeans and a blue t-shirt. My supermodel husband! I smiled. His gaze met mine. His eyebrows were creased but his lips parted into a huge smile. I glanced at my stomach. A sense of relief filled me. Our babies were fine. I shuddered a

    I was sitting on the couch waiting for my husband. My hand was on my round stomach, feeling the baby move. I was near to deliver them. Chris and Becca were arguing over the names and adding more things to their rooms. "They are my niece. I'll decide. No dolls in their rooms. They are boys. Rayden boys." Chris told her. "Sir, they are babies. They can't know the difference between a doll and a bear." Becca shook her head. I kept laughing on the seat. My back was aching but it was feeling better now against the pillow. I barely did anything and just wandered in the house. They kept bickering over small things. An uncomfortable feeling crawled my belly. I held my breath as I waited for the wave of pain to pass through. My stomach felt tightened and muscles contracted. I screamed in panic when something wet trailed

It was written by my elder sister, Ansley Lewis. She was no more. It was unbelievable. That she had a daughter. I didn't know anything about it until reading this letter. She gave birth to a daughter. Mom told me that she met with an accident, but she didn't tell me about her daughter. Why? My heart was aching. Five years ago, I got into a fight with her. She was dating my boyfriend. She said they were going to tell me. I knew. She wasn't lying. I rubbed my hand on my cheek. I didn't wanna go there. She wrote this letter to me before her death.

She was my wife. We hadn't officially signed any contract but marriage papers definitely. I could feel my blood rushing with pleasure at the thought of her in my arms. She let me hold her last night.

    I hadn't smiled this much before. I could see my world when I looked into his eyes. I hadn't felt loved before. He made me feel. I was here to take my niece. But he took away my heart and gave me every reason to smile, to laugh and to spend life with him. His tears were heart wrecking. I let his pain through his tears, though it was shattering to watch him like this. I let him hold me the whole night, pressing his lips to mine. We slept in each other's arms. I smiled looking at him sleeping. Reluctantly, I extended my hand and slipped in his silky dark hair. I pressed my lips to his forehead. Silently, I slid out of the bed and walked into the washroom. I was in his room. I hadn't seen this part of the house. He never allowed me in before. It wa

    She glanced at me leaving everything behind. There was no worry, tension and fear of losing anything on her face. She thought. I didn't know it. But I knew every move of her body. She was developing feelings for me. I had chosen her for this because I wanted her to be my wife. I was expecting her to hate me, leave me after knowing the truth. But she was still here. I didn't want her to feel for me. She would get nothing but a beast, a broken heart. I wasn't blaming Aly for my heartbreak, but myself. I liked her, she knew it. Still, I was sleeping with other girls instead of talking about my feelings. I did not consider myself a perfect husband like my father and brother. I told her the dark secret of my life in the hope she would hate me and stop feeling for me. I saw respect in he

    I began to walk back and forth. His poker face frightened me most. He wouldn't question me about what I was doing here without informing him. The door opened. He peeled off the phone from his ear as his gaze met mine. Slotting his phone back into his pocket, he strode at me. What was hurting him, the thoughts were making my head hurt. I trudged near him. and looked in his eyes, "Chris," I whispered. "Yea," He ignored to look at me and frowned at the piles of the files. I sighed and turned to the desk. I picked them one by one and arranged it on the wooden ranks, "I know. You don't trust in our wedding. But we can be friends." I said. I forwarded my hand to put the last file. He grasped my hand and twirled me, "What are you trying

    I woke up wearing that stupid short silky dress. Tears leaked from my eyes. I rushed toward the washroom and got rid of it. I didn't make breakfast today. I wasn't expecting him to be home. But I heard footsteps and hope raised, forgetting all the torture of last night. He sat down on the chair. I stood up without a word and walked into the kitchen. I didn't want him to go to the office without eating like yesterday. Hurriedly, I cooked for him and served him. I got in the chair and grabbed my coffee again. It was cold and I wasn't bothered. He casually slid his phone on the table and looked at me across the table, "Where's your food?" He asked. "I'm not hungry," I sai

    He rang the bell. I watched my surrounding, manicured garden, flowers, trees queues on the side of a single road. If Chris thought, I would change my mind after seeing their wealth. He got me wrong. I spun hearing the door creaking. Alyssum was standing in her shorts, her face was sleepy, her hair was in a loose bun, she stared at us for a second with her blue eyes, She smiled at our sight and beamed. She was looking like a cute little girl with bare feet and her smile. My eyes caught a mark on her neck. "Still sleeping!" Chris arched his eyebrows and leaned in to kiss her cheek. My gaze stopped on her throat. There was a slight mark. She blinked, looking up at him nervously and then smiled. I had heard rumours that my husband was in love with her. I didn't believe the rumou

    Our mother in law opened the door for us. Her face brightened looking at her grandchildren. She bent down and hugged them at one time. Alyssum and I laughed. I could see the same excitement on Aidan's face too, who remained with his gadgets the entire day. I must say my mother in law was beautiful, "How are you, mom?" She asked. "I have seen my grandchildren. You can see my smile." She grinned. Alyssum laughed, I smiled too. The thing was, I hadn't experienced what being with family felt like. Now I could be confirmed, it was a blessed feeling. She embraced me with the same enthusiasm. I relaxed in her motherly hold. She invited us in. Kids were already in the room and playing on the blanket where

    An icy chill ran down my spine. The thought of my mother laying on the bed terrified me. I needed to concentrate on Chelsea. I should tell her that Alyssum wasn't her mother then it could be. I could persuade her to come with me. I should invite Alyssum for Lunch with her kids. I grabbed my phone and called on her number. "Hello, " I recognized her sweet voice. "Hi, Chelsea! I'm your Zara Aunt." "I'm Elsa," She giggled. "How are you?" I started the conversation with a simple question. I heard another voice. She wasn't alone. I didn't have any experience with kids. I was trying my best. I waited for her to reply. "Mom, it's Zara aunt." Then it went silent. "Are you ok?" I furrowe

It didn't seem fair that my sister's one night stand partner was my husband now. My gaze was on Chelsea. My mother and my mother in law…… They were looking at kids and laughing over something. A nurse was sitting on the chair behind my mother. Alyssum's sons, Aidan and Dairo were playing in the background with Renee. She was Victoria and Harris' daughter. Chelsea and Renee were holding a small girl's hand. I didn't know her name but she was Alyssum's best friend's daughter, Becca and Nathan. There were only a few people, almost family. All were rich and businessmen. Chris squeezed my hand. I swivelled and looked at him. His gaze was gi
