Author's PovPalming her swollen belly Freya's forehead scrunched into a deep scowl as she whimpered in pain, hardly sitting up from her laying position she switched on the side lamp and let out a soft cry feeling another kick of pain. Her hand swiftly started finding her phone which she placed on nightstand but instead of grabbing it she accidentally dropped the lamp on the floor making a loud clattering sound."Ah!" She cried out letting the tears damp her cheeks, it was too painful.She looked up hearing two knocks on her the door, "Freya, what happened? I heard a loud noise! Are you ok?" She heard her husband's worried voice as he impatiently questioned her. She knew Leo was a light sleeper but after she got pregnant he became more conscious around her."L-Leo," She whimpered crying in pain when Leo instantly opened the door and after finding his wife on the bed crying while clutching her stomach he ran near her."Freya, is it the time?" She nodded her head hardly finding her voic
Freya's PovI watched as Leonard held our little angel in his bare arms cooeing at her. It was a rare yet an adorable sight to behold, I wish the time to just pause so I could stare at the beautiful picture my mind was creating and reserving it in the messy memories but something about those painful memories had changed.Without my realization the memories I held onto thinking that I will never be able to forgive this man had started diminishing and his massive struggle and efforts to get me back had started overpowering those painful memories I once lived. I wish we never had to go through such pain, I wish I still had the same trust on him but alas! Somethings just didn't meant to be.It's been two weeks I gave birth to Aera, our sweet little girl and I could see how Leonard had been struggling with his professional and personal life. I knew he could simply flew back to Spain and hold onto his scattered business but he wasn't ready to give up. And now I was forced to accept that as
(This chapter is solely for Evan and Janet)Author's PovEvan sighed heavily once again getting a no response from Freya's number, he closed his eyes leaning his head against the sofa when he remembered the same face that had been haunting him for many months.Janet. The woman who broke his heart mercilessly when he wanted her the most, the woman he broke heart of, the same way but God forbid if he claimed that it gave him any kind of relief after doing that. She was still the woman he loved beyond himself and now to think of he was glad he didn't marry Freya.He didn't appreciate how he didn't marry her and never would he be thankful that she chose to marry that man. Yes, he heard about the marriage ceremony and for a few days he actually wanted to run to her in order to save her but after seeing her joyful frame and satisfied eyes he knew he had won over her.He had no idea what Leonard did to her to make her give in to him this easily but regardless of his dislike towards the man h
Author's PovFreya's lips curved into a small smile staring at the beautiful warm view in front of her, she went to make milk for her little angel but the moment she returned she found her sleeping over her father's chest who didn't even change his office suit and simply held her the second he arrived at home.A warm feeling spread over her chest hearing the word home echoing in her head, yes the home she always wanted to build but was failing each time because of many obstacles but now she had finally created one and with the man she never thought she will ever again be able to live under same roof.After her accepting to give him a last chance to mend their relationship he didn't disappoint her, after a week they returned to Spain in order ease his overwhelming work.

Author's Pov Freya frowned raising her eyebrows when she didn't find Leonard in the room, her scowl eased a bit after she made sure Aera was fast asleep and she indeed was. But in order to find Leonard she marched to the terrace. Leoaned had grown this new habit of watching the empty hollow forest behind their house at night.But he always returned back to the room on time, today when he didn't return even after her waiting for him she decided to check up on him. Opening the glass door she stepped out of terrace shivering a bit hugging the shawl she had dabbed over her arms when the cold wind attacked her tiny frame. As expected, he was standing on the edge watching the dark forest with his blank gaze, his palms were placed over the concrete half wall doing the work of railing. Walking near him she watched how he snapped out of his lost thoughts and turned his whole attention towards her."What happened?" She mumbled making the man sigh lightly shooting her a small smile."Nothing I
Author's Pov"Leo, stop scaring me!" She mumbled holding onto his hand like a scared cat as he was helping her to walk because of her eyes being blindfolded.When she woke up early in the morning she found a beautiful large box placed over the couch confusing her. The very first she went to her daughter's room to check upon her, Aera had turned almost a year, her birthday was just two weeks away and Leo had made a plan of throwing a massive party even though I didn't want to make it any big event but he clearly said it was his angel's first birthday he wasn't going to let it any less of an important event of his life.Not finding her daughter in the room she frowned panicking a bit but after coming in her room she approached the couch to get her phone when her eyes fell on the small card laying over the box. Grabbing it she opened the paper piece and read the words written on it which both eased her tension and burned the spark of curiosity in her heart.My precious, be ready till 5 p
Author's PovHands joined, eyes closed and lips moving in a slow rhythm as she recited her prayers silently. Peace, that's what she felt whenever she came to this place, even though God has given her a luxurious life any man would die to get but the peace this place provided her each time could never be compared to any other luxury of this world.Sighing blissfully she unfolded her deep blue eyes letting them fall on the statue of Jesus as she thanked him infinitely times for providing her the life she had gotten without asking for it. She felt a light pat over her head making her tilt her head up like a curious kitten.A small smile cracked up on her lips finding the man that was always there to provide her the warmth of a brother even though he wasn't her blood related but their bond said something else. Carefully standing up from the kneeling position she smiled at him."Good morning, Evan." She greeted him and he reciprocated right away withdrawing his hand from her head."Morning
Author's PovFreya opened the curtains of his room before smiling at the place being fully tidy, she had developed this stubborn habit of cleaning his room every day, settling his stuff, and maintaining his wardrobe. She didn't want anything to look abandoned when he would return to his homeland.Leonard had spent a decade in a strange country with no one at his aid, she wanted him to feel at home and wanted him to see how she took care of everything like her own. Soon her head snapped to the door finding her aunt smiling at her."Freya, are you done here?" She nodded her head letting out a sigh of contentment when her aunt patted her head like a mother."You know you don't have to do this every day, we have servants for this." Freya smiled shyly."I just like doing his work." Her aunt Sofia chuckled staring at her blushing daughter with a teasing smile."My son is really lucky," She exclaimed proudly caressing Freya's flushed cheek."I wish your uncle had given you permission to talk
