Blake grinned and then collected the bag of groceries in my hand. He looks well dressed, his hair was even well combed and he didn't have the stench of alcohol on him.
"What are you doing here Blake? I told you to leave me alone" I snap.
"And I told you I was coming back for you. You wanted me to sober up, I have. What else do you want me to do?" He asked a bit frustrated.
"I'm done with you so please leave"
I snatch my bag from his hand and started walking away.
"I'm not leaving you alone Selene. We belong together"
I'm breathing really hard as I try to walk away from him but he keeps coming after me. I'm confused, angry and hungry right now. And the last thing I want is for Blake to be creeping the hell out of me
"And you need me, especially now that you don't have that billionaire of a guy around" He griped and I stop in my track.
"What
I'm in tears!I reach out to wipe my eyes in my sleep. I've been like this almost throughout the night. Waking up with tears in my eyes but I try not to wake Fabrico on the other side of the bed. He looks tired and worn out and I'll hate to disturb his sleep.More tears roll down my cheek when I shut my eyes and all I saw was a baby laying afar off from me. It was still like it was dead and I was screaming. I snap my eyes opened. The fear is back! The guilt of loosing that child. I scramble off the bed finding my robe by the side, I wear it and walk out of the room and to the kitchen.I stare into the dark street. No cars were moving, no body on the street . It was just dark and empty. I see an image through the glass, coming behind me before he wraps his arms round my waist."What are you doing out of bed?". I ask him."I can't sleep without you in my arms anymore"
I bought dinner on my way home so I was arranging it into plates when Fabrico came in and planted a kiss on my cheek."Good evening, baby" he says somewhat cherry about something. I place down two plates filled with roasted turkey and lamb chops down. "You know fried things aren't good for your health" he reminds me before seating on a stool."I know. At least I'm eating something" I shrug with a smile. "Did you go anywhere special today?""Yeah" he hands me a paper, I take it and place it on the counter. "Read it, Selene"I pick the paper up again and open it. The name insurance interests me so I read the whole thing. It's an health insurance note and it has my name on it. Waving the paper in front of me, I sigh."What is this?""A health insurance" was his simple reply."Why does it have my name on it?"Fabrico takes my hand, pulling me
Kay is by my side when I open my eyes. I'm in hospital clothes and I have a tube sticking out of me. I touch my head as I seat up trying to check out my surrounding."Thank God you're up" Kay says.A nurse is by her side and when she sees I'm up, she comes to me checking my temperature and all that..I try to keep my eyes opened."What happened?" I ask Kay."You fainted" Kay seats by my side and takes my hand. "It's about your health. You need to start taking care of yourself. I don't want to lose you" she warns and I smile. She has an odd way of showing care somtimes."You look fine Miss Brooks. You just need to regulate your eating and what you eat. I write down some things you need to stick too. There are also some snacks you can take" she scribbles something down and hands it to Kay."You're in perfect health"The nurse smiles. I read her tag. Judith.
The day I realised that I love Fabrico was when he came to rescue me from Blake that night. He might not have known it but he was my secret hero. He saved me. Who knows what Blake's plan was when he came over, offering to help me.I stare at Fabrico to see what he was going to do. Do I tell him again or just keep quiet."Fabrico...please say something" I plead."You're pregnant how? I thought you were on the pills" he says and my heart sinks. Is that what he's most worried about?"I thought so too...I skipped taking them sometimes" I say and feel my eye well up. If nothing moved him, that moved him. My tears, so he cups my face."Why are you crying?""I wasn't ready for this Fabrico""So what are you saying?" He asks, a little alarmed."I'm saying... I'm not sure I can do this""Why not?"I burst into a fi
I open my eyes when I feel a hand run through my hair. I see Fabricos face, his eyes are still shut and he looks adorable with a bed head. I smile because I know my hands did that...last night. Even now, I run my hand through his growing curl of hair and then down his face, to his scruffy chin. I kiss it.He stirs but doesn't open his eyes. His long lashes only flattered on his cheek bone. His jaw constricted before he release it again. I feel so lucky to be in his arms. What did I even do to get a man like him. To deserve a man like this. I try not to be emotional as I press my chest against his, wanting to be close to him than ever.His hands come around me but he's still asleep. He easily does it like he's used to it, holding me in his arms.I place my leg on his waist, feeling his hardness poke at my stomach."Fabrico" I whisper.He grunts and mumbles something incoherent. I chuckle an
While I and Fabrico have lived in this Villa for three weeks without anyone knowing, I felt like I still had to do something. I need to quit my job. That way, we can both come out public. We've been living like couples but we haven't made it public yet. I don't even want to but once rhe pap sees me with Fabrico. Wether I like it or not, I go viral.I asked Fabrico couple of times if he missed going to work but he says no. He's been working from home since we both moved here. If he had any meeting that was urgent, held it at any event hall here in Seattle in which closes down the whole building. And then last week, he said he bought a building here in Seattle, so he could own and office here. That's really cools I thought.So, he's been visiting the site, putting his office in order and establishing the place. I feel blessed that he could forsake his life in Miami to come live with me in simple Seattle. The man does love me more than I can
"Mrs Valenquez" I gulp. Her eyes roll down my body in resent. Surely, she wasn't expecting to see me at her son's new mansion. But Selene had a feeling Fabrico told her they lived together now. It happened all whick even for her and she wouldn't blame the woman if she nagged her out right now."I see you got yourself all settled in already" Aida state with a frown. She plops her bag down on the white couch before seating down. "I take it my son is not yet home?""No. He had an urgent...""He told me" she interrupts and my eyes roll. Well now she's just being rude. I would've nagged her right now but I don't want to look disrespectful to Fabrico's mom. We're in the middle of a good thing here and I don't want to ruin that."Well can I get you anything?""Like what? Last I heard, you can't light a stove"I'm running out of patience with her so I just turn around and walk up
I don't think I've ever been so scared on my entire life the way I am right now. It's allover the news, allover the world that I slept with Fabrico. My face has been on almost every gossip magazine, newspaper and youtube pages. Cuddling on the white sofa in the living room, I keep taking a whole lot of caffeine to keep my adrenaline kicking.My panic attack is all on and I feel dreadful already. In one magazine, I read about my whole life. My mom, dad, my childhood. How do people even investigate so much? It's slightly irritating.Just today I was fired and now my life has shifted from bad to worst. I had intensions of quitting my job myself, but now Michelle fired me, it's just been added that I'm with Fabrico because if his money and that I'm broke.I haven't gotten a text from Fabrico yet and I hope I get one soon before I simply run insane. I want to know what his thoughts on all these is. Is he mad that he got tangled
Selene POVThe tree is lit, the candles and everything. Even the cookies are baked but there's just one more problem, the cake frost is missing. I and my mom have trampled the whole house looking for it but it's still nowhere to be found.The door to my bedroom slides opened and Kay comes in with a giggling Freya. My God! I hope she doesn't give me a heart attack. She's got some of the frost all over her face and I only hope she hasn't taken much sugar than she can bear."Oh my!" I squeal as I collect her from my bestfriend. "Where did she find it? It was on the counter" I puzzled."There's every chance that Russo helped her get it down" Kay said, referring to Freya's cousin. My husband's brother's son. Ok, this just got me really scared."I'll help clean her up. You just get on with the cooking. Aida and Alice are waiting for you". Kay walked out of the room, my dau
Seven months Later"What?" I pant, my eyes straining on the nurse in front of me. Her name is Ruby and have been my nurse for a while now, since I blew up into a big round ball, and I had to come here for checkups."A minute" Ruby says, holding her hand up, as she spoke with the doctor on the other line. Her eyes moving all over me before they finally pop."What is he saying?" I ask, clutching my maxi dress. Oh my gosh! I felt a really constricting pain just this afternoon and I told Andrew to drive me here. I didn't want to alarm Fabrico into a false labour because that has happened so many times in the last week. In reaching here, I was told it's time for the baby to come out, but my water hasn't broken yet.&nbs
I sit up real well, staring at her, my eyes run down her body and then back up to her eyes."W-why are you like that?" I stutter and she grins, walking toward me."Why else? Stop being a saint Fabrico. I know you want me" she purr, getting on her knees and crawling to me. Ok..I never knew she was into stuffs like that. We may have done foreplays when we were together but...shit!.She reaches my thighs and hold them, sitting up."I said I wanted us to talk""Fine. Let's talk" she says and come to sit beside me. Her hands are on my torso, and her breath fanning my neck."What does you dad have against me?" I ask and she stops what she's doing to stare at me."Not this again" she sighs and I nod."Yes this" I say and then I did the unthinkable. My hand, run up her neck slowly until I grip the back of her neck. I try to focus

Fabrico POVThe second the car drives into the lot of the Hilliard Cabin home, I phone Jared immediately, telling him to turn the microphones on. They're in a Van just down the street, and hidden from any passerbys. Anything, and they'll be rushing in to do there work."You in yet?" He asked."Nope. About to though. Sure she won't know?" I ask, feeling my hand brush agaisnt each other. Rose finding out anything could blow the cover."Depends on how you act. Just be your normal self, with a little spice. Remember, you're making her believe that you're on her side"I sigh, rolling my head back. It's going to be so hard pretending to care about her when I know that she's just trying to blackmail me. She and her father."Fabrico..." Jared called and I snap my eyes opened."You're doing this for you and Selene. Don't forget that. We have
"what the devil are you saying?!" Fabrico yells at him. "I've seen him myself. He..." His sentence is cut short when he realized what he's about to say, dosen't make any sense. He and Emiliano are twins, so it's perfectly normal if their children looked alike. "Shit!" He runs his hands through his hair."I'm sorry you had to hear it from me. I was hoping Rose would tell you herself but then I hear from mom you were going to marry her because of Russo" Liano explains, like he actually has a good heart."Hilliard has been blackmailing me" Fabrico stresses. "And for nothing""Maybe he doesn't know Russo isn't yours" I mutter, both Fabrico and Liano glare at me."He knows" Liano clarified."So why would he force me to marry his daughter?""He probably wants Russo to inherit your wealth" Liano runs his hands through his hair, the same time Fabrico does it and I smile at how sim
I run my hands through my hair unruly. "Start talking" I gripe at Alice and she glares at me, her arms folded. She really hasn't changed. Still sassy, annoying and don't give a fuck about anyone but herself."There's nothing to talk about? Corby was your father" She says."How? He never talked about you""He didn't have to."My brain is racking on so many things right now and she's not letting out much details that I need to know, and it's pissing me off."Tell me everything" I whisper.Her eyes are not so cold anymore as she sits on the couch, tapping at the space beside her.
I run through the hospital in a white, transparent maxi dress, making my way for the room I know Corby once stayed. There are some nurses outside the room, Grace is there, her eyes dull if tears and red. This is real. It's actually real! My body is trembling as she points into the room."We're about taking him out now miss" one of the nurses said."Please...let my just see him. Please" I beg, my hands rubbing together and she nodded. I walk into the room, my heart in my hands. I'm glad Fabrico is behind me. Leon has Kay in his arms as she cried.There he is, laying on the bed, a shit clothe just to his neck and ready to close his head. I place my hand above my heart, feeling my fountain break and I'm in a sobbing mess. He's gone! His eyes are shut close, his face pale and dull. It's a contrast of the lively Corby I used to know. He was so energetic."Corby...please..." I say in a hush voice, my hands touch
It's been a great week for me, Fabrico has been home throughout, we've been having lot of good times together, and spending time with him just allows me to know more about him. The things social media don't know. Like, how he has a terrible fright for spoons."Are you adding a lettuce to that?" I ask Fabrico. We're making dinner together. I'm improving in this cooking thing and it's really nice."Yeah. But little" he says and kiss me on the lips before walking toward the sink. Leon comes in,a smile on his face and I don't realize why until Kay comes into view."How are you here?" I smile as I hurry to hug her, my arms throwing round her neck."Wow, you're looking fatter each day" she comments and I stare at Fabrico who blows me a kiss. "By the way, Fabrico invited me"I glare at Fabrico. "You did?"He nods with a grin."That's so sweet. I'm happy to see yo
