Victoria POV
I couldn't even react.
When Roy confessed to me that he loved me, I felt so confused that I couldn't even breathe. Roy was my best friend throughout my childhood, even more than that, he was the person who was always there for me unconditionally for a long time.
But was he really there for me unconditionally? Now knowing that he liked me, I wondered if he really was for me all this time unconditionally, or if he was for me only if he liked me and had other kinds of "interests" for me. I know that shouldn't sound so bad... But... There's one little detail...
Now Roy and Jenny are back in my life, they are once again getting closer to me and we are being a group of friends that get along great. But apparently, Jenny always knew about this, I mean she always knew that Roy liked me, but yet she told me absolutely nothing, betraying me. And now to know that Roy was the first one to try to patch things up with me and that he tried to kiss me just m
Victoria POVMy heart is still pounding so hard in my chest from all the fear I feel, as a part of me wants to reach out to Dominik and hug him, ask for His forgiveness for being an idiot. But the other part is terrified, as I fear his rejection. I love him too much to be able to stand him treating me that way.But as the two of us stand in silence in that same room, in the middle of the darkness and with obvious discomfort between the two of us, I decide it's time to stop doing stupid things.I have to talk to him."Dominik," I say with more force and firmness in my voice, even though inside I'm shaking like jelly.It seems my firmer voice finally gets the job done, and he turns in my direction, looking at me silently. This was but then I thought, as a small part inside me wanted to think that Dominik was going to forgive me and we were going to have a civilized conversation about what happened, but Dominik still remains in that same awkward silen
Victoria POVLoneliness.As I sat on Dominik's bed, staring off into nothingness, that's all I could feel.It had been almost a week since Dominik left. I remember many times that moment when he left the apartment to leave, claiming to myself in my mind that I should have gone after him, that even if he was mad at me, I shouldn't have let him leave without me. But it was too late to regret things I didn't do out of fear, and now I can only regret that he is gone.I have called him multiple times on his phone, hundreds or thousands even, as I want to explain to him, I want to talk and tell him everything that happened that day at my school. But he still won't let me do it, he still won't answer my calls or even bother to tell me if he is ok. Dominik is missing, and if it wasn't for me talking to his sister the other day, I would have already called the police to report him as a missing person."Aneliss?" I asked excitedly, answering my phone and rec
Victoria POVWith some regret, I had to watch silently as my mother and younger brother took my things from my room."Don't make that face... We are only taking what is necessary for you to stay quietly at home, you are not leaving this apartment" My mother said to me, noticing my obvious bad mood.I preferred not to answer, since taking 'the necessary', at this point was to take all my personal things and take them back home, leaving my room in Dominik's penthouse practically empty.And taking 'the necessities' of my things from the apartment to my home meant taking all my clothes, my cleaning supplies, and also my school books and electronic devices. Leaving in the apartment... Nothing. Maybe a few clothes that weren't really necessary and then... Absolutely nothing.Seeing the suitcases I used to come here and also many cardboard boxes full of my personal belongings, I realized how little I got to accumulate in this apartment, and that somehow..
Victoria POVHow did my pregnancy nonsense start?To be honest, it started since I was still together with Dominik, after finishing school almost two months ago now. And it all started because of the vomiting, the damn vomiting.Almost two weeks after my graduation party, the morning vomiting started. At first, they were somewhat irregular, as it would happen some mornings and not others, as if it was random. But then, it started happening every morning, and after that not only in the mornings, I started vomiting almost every meal I ate.That was not normal anymore.Then almost the second month after my graduation I started to relate it to a possible pregnancy because there was a new thing that was also strange in me... My period was absent.Yes, I know, I should have gone to the doctor then. But I tried to deny the truth, telling Dominik that I was sick because of how scared I felt about the upcoming exams I was going to have to get into co
Victoria POVStanding in the bathroom in silence, I looked in front of me at the myriad of glasses with pregnancy tests, all of which were positive.There was no longer any room for doubt, I am pregnant.A couple of hours later after the first pregnancy test came back positive, Jenny came back to my house with many other pregnancy tests, of different types and of all brands, something that was extremely surprising to me, as I have no idea where the hell she got so many pregnancy tests from.But still, Jenny did it, as she read on the pregnancy test that there was a certain margin of error where there could be a false positive and that it was advisable to test more than once to be sure. I guess that gave her some hope that she is not pregnant, and she wanted to check.But test after test, as we both looked at each other in disbelief, all came back positive.I guess this worried Jenny not only because we were friends, as I know she is so worri
Dominik POVRemaining silent, I drank the last sip of my wine glass, sighing calmly and feeling somewhat drowsy. It had been a complicated and rather heavy week, and the next day things didn't seem to get any better, as I would have to return home after almost 5 months of absence, in which I had been traveling all over Europe and part of Asia to settle long-pending business matters.So with all my company's problems completely resolved, I could return. But I had no idea why, I was in no mood at all to return home, wanting to stay in that beautiful hotel in Paris, where I had such good liquor and a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower. An ethereal scene.My relaxation is interrupted when my phone rings next to me on the couch. With some regret, fearing it is something about work, I pick it up and decide to answer, "Hello?"This was my personal phone, the new one I had bought at the start of my trip, so it allowed me to be a little more casual in using it, as
Victoria POVI open my eyes as my mother stops the car, something that makes me realize we're already home."Are we there yet?" I ask in a whisper, sitting up better in the passenger seat and unable to help myself from yawning tiredly."Yes, we're here" My mother answers me with a smile, taking her key out of the car and opening the door.Yawning again, I put on the gloves I brought with me and fix my jacket, then mimicking her, take off my seatbelt and get out of the car behind mom. Today was a pretty cold day, but this was no surprise to anyone, as the weather is usually this bad in December. You know, most would say it's the perfect weather for the holidays, but I've always preferred warmth, so this weather doesn't suit me at all.And the cold and snow become something much but when being pregnant.Rounding the car carefully, as it has started snowing for a couple of days now and I'm afraid of falling, I get to the back, where my mother h
Victoria POVFeeling very elated, I can't help but pace back and forth in my room, trying to contain the excitement I feel right now in my whole chest for knowing that I'm going to get to see Dominik after such a long time.I know, I know I shouldn't be excited about all the things he's done to me, like... Abandoning me at such a delicate time like I'm going through right now. However, I just can't be mad at him. I don't know if when he comes back we will ever be in a relationship again, but by bringing one of my hands to my bulging belly, I can only think of one thing.Dominik has to know about his son.I know that even if Dominik no longer loves me or is still angry with me, he will love his child, so it is very important that he sees him, that he even knows my condition and knows that I am pregnant.So taking a deep breath, I try to calm myself down, psyching myself up for the moment when I have to leave my house to go to the airport to pick him
Victoria POVTaking a deep breath, I listen as in the distance behind these curtains, the wedding march plays, by that nice band we had hired for our wedding.I didn't have fond memories of my first wedding. I was in a funk, with the news of my arranged marriage and after getting such an impression of Dominik and his family, it was practically impossible for me to enjoy that ceremony. Besides that as such, that was not my wedding, it was Dominik's mother's wedding, that insufferable woman was the one who was in charge of organizing most of the details of my wedding, from the hors d'oeuvres to my dress. So that whole party and ceremony didn't feel like my own thing, it felt like my duty to marry Dominik.But my second wedding... It's something different.For a long time when I regained my memory, I felt extremely regretful and stupid for having signed my divorce with Dominik, for having been so unconscious to sign those documents. For because of my mistake
Dominik POVI open my eyes in the middle of the darkness. After having sex with Victoria in an uncontrolled manner several times, I end up surrendered in bed. Sometimes I think I should improve my physical condition just for my wife, who has become insatiable.Abandoning my thoughts as I turn in bed, I soon wonder where she is right now, as next to me there is no one, there is only the empty bed. With a yawn, having regained some of my energy from that short nap, I stand up and grab my underwear, putting them on and deciding to leave the room to look for her.It didn't take long to find her, seeing her in the main room of the suite, wearing my shirt, and sitting on the floor looking outside through one of the large windows.Smiling at the sight of her, I slowly approach her, sitting behind her and hugging her back, "What are you doing, didn't you rest?" I ask kissing her on the neck.Victoria smiles playfully, and entangles her fingers with mine in
Victoria POVIn the middle of this beautiful room, which made the most beautiful memories flow in me, I couldn't help but melt with Dominik in a passionate and long kiss, while my body stuck to his, and his naughty hands started to slide down my waist, reaching my buttocks and pressing my buttocks."Dominik..." I say in a whisper breaking our kiss when he presses my buttocks on the thin fabric of my dress.Smiling in a somewhat shy way, Dominik says to me, "I'm sorry Tory, I don't think I can control myself right now."Smiling reassuringly at him, I take his face in my hands, saying, "I don't want you to control yourself."Those words coming from my lips are enough to drive my husband crazy, who takes me in his arms, and with quick steps heads to the suite's bedroom, making me laugh. Yes, he is quite impatient...My body bounces on the soft feather bed of the hotel, the same one on which I once lost my virginity to this man I love with all m
Dominik POVShortly after Derick's nanny arrives, Victoria and I leave our house for the city. Unlike our short married life without children, Victoria and I no longer had as many freedoms now, as we could stay out all night at a party and return at dawn, Derick was still a small baby, and he needed Victoria by his side. Still, we could definitely do something in the little free time we had.I love my son with all my heart, but secretly, if only I had wished my time alone with Victoria as a slightly freer couple had lasted longer.But there is no time for regrets now, and enjoying my young son and my now stable family, I can only long for my times with fewer responsibilities in the past."Wow... We haven't been here in a while" Victoria says, as we approach the most luxurious hotel on the island."I know, when we arrived I had planned to come here often, but I think we only came here for the first few days of our arrival," I say unable to hold in s
Dominik POVFeeling loving kisses on my face, I barely open my eyes and see Victoria's smiling face next to me, something that immediately makes me smile too, as I love to see her so happy and next to me."Hi," I say looking at her."Hi..." She answers me, lowering her gaze immediately to our son, "Were you guys taking a nap?""The baby was taking it, and I... I foolishly fell asleep too.""It's okay, don't worry, you've worked hard these days, you deserve to rest too."Holding her things better, Victoria stands up, walking to one of the furniture nearby to put her phone on charge.After all, getting back to my life with Victoria wasn't difficult at all.I was able to enjoy her last few months of pregnancy when she was in such a delicate state after all the horrible things that happened to her because of me. I still didn't mind taking care of her at all, and I kept her like a princess at home during that time.My mother
Victoria POVWith a sigh, I take off my sunglasses, listening as my phone alarm beeps steadily, signaling to me that my relaxing time on the beach is finally over.Honestly, I wanted to enjoy however I could these last days I have in this paradisiacal place with my family, since after almost 6 months I was going back home for my wedding, and I wanted to enjoy a natural tan for that. So looking at the sunset sun over my head, already practically disappearing on the horizon to give way to the night. I understand that it's the right time to head back home. I still have a couple of days to come to the beach to soak up some sun before returning home.Almost a year has passed since my accident and my reunion with Dominik, and during all this time... My life has been perfect, better than a dream.Just as I had anticipated, in the month of March, my little boy was born without a hitch. My beautiful Deric Evian Meyer was my greatest love next to his father, and al
Victoria POVI felt like I was in heaven, having just woken up from a long dream, a nightmare. But now I had all my memories, my memories preserved, I finally knew who I was and I could return to the arms of my beloved husband.I know our relationship is not perfect, I'll be damned if I ever suggest that it is. However, amid its imperfection, I was happy with Dominik, as I believe we both compliment each other and have the ability to make it all work thanks to being able to do that, thanks to being able to be ourselves and find understanding and affection in each other. I don't see myself next to anyone other than Dominik Meyer.So when I feel his arms around my waist, touching my bulging belly, I can't help but get a little emotional and just want to cry. Since I signed the divorce petition foolishly, and for a moment, just a moment, I feared I was going to lose Dominik. Even more so tonight, when for just a couple of seconds, he almost left me again.Tu
Dominik POVAfter thinking about it... I decided that I was definitely not going to give up. I know what Victoria had told me, I know the desperate way she begged me to get out of her life... And even though I was really considering doing it so as not to upset her and not to make the situation even worse... I understood that I couldn't do it.I couldn't disappear from her life and from my son's life like that, I couldn't be a coward and abandon the only family I truly love in this world. For my son and for Victoria, I had to keep fighting for them until the end.So, apologizing to all my employees, whom I had made come to work in vain on such an important date as Christmas Eve, I suspended my trip and asked them to keep the plane. I was not planning to go anywhere.I was determined, I was going to get my family back at any cost, and I planned to start doing that right now if necessary. So grabbing my little luggage and my phone, I was already calling a ca
Victoria POVI felt like I was in some kind of loop, some kind of replay of time and events, as in the middle of a snowy night and so much hustle and bustle, I was running through the streets heading for the airport, to find the man I love and the father of my children.Praying it's not too late.After leaving Dominik's building, the one in which we once had our apartment, one thing became clear to me: Dominik was planning to leave, and that was something I could not allow. So taking all my courage, adjusting the scarf around my neck, and getting very serious, I decided to get to that airport to stop him, even if I had to walk in the snow with my pregnancy, I was determined not to lose Dominik for a second time.But fortunately, when I was arriving at the center of the city, in the middle of the strong gales hitting my face and the snowflakes that had started to fall from the sky, I met the least expected person."Miss Victoria?" I hear as a very f
