Chapter 41

MegraThe sharp, strong smell of smoke wakes me up. My eyes are still closed, and I am still so sleepy. I reach out for Nathaniel, but my hand only finds cold sheets. Panic bubbles up as I force myself out of bed, my mind racing. Where is he? What the hell is happening?I stumble out of the bedroom, the smoke getting thicker with every step. My heart pounds as I rush towards the kitchen. There, amidst the haze, I see Nathaniel frantically waving a dish towel at the smoke detector, trying to clear the air.“What the fuck are you doing?” I shout, my voice a mix of fear and disbelief. “Are you trying to burn down my home?”Nathaniel looks over at me, his face a mix of embarrassment and amusement. “I was just trying to make you breakfast,” he says, laughing. “I didn’t realize how hard it actually is.”Despite the chaos, I can’t help but laugh. It’s a sound that’s part relief and part happiness. I rush to open the doors and windows, letting the cool morning air in to chase away the smoke.“

MegraNathaniel and I sit on the porch, the morning breeze gentle against our skin. The sun rises, casting a warm glow over everything. We’ve been talking about the possibility of living in Stockton. It feels like a dream, something I hadn’t dared hope for until now.“I could figure out the logistics of working in San Francisco while living here,” Nathaniel says, holding my hand. “It might mean some travel, but it’s doable. And you could become a teacher again. I know how much the offer Mrs. Alice gave you means now.”I look at him, my heart swelling with gratitude and love. Could he just be playing games? But this is the Nathaniel I fell for—caring, supportive, and willing to make sacrifices for my happiness. “I’d love to teach again,” I admit. “But it’s a big decision. Are you sure you’re okay with it? Will you not miss the big house, the view, and all the house staff?”“Of course I will,” he says, squeezing my hand. “But I want you to be happy, Megra. And if that means living here,

Chapter 43

NathanielThe drive back to San Francisco feels endless. My heart is heavy, and my mind is a whirlwind of regret and confusion. Megra's words echo in my ears, as does the pain in her voice when she told me to leave. The image of her face, twisted with hurt, is burned into my memory. I grip the steering wheel tighter, replaying the scene over and over.Anna's announcement hit like a bomb. "I'm pregnant with Nathaniel's child," she had said. Megra's eyes widened in shock, then narrowed in betrayal. Before I could explain, she had turned on me, her voice shaking with anger. "Get out, Nathaniel. Just go."I keep seeing her face in my mind. The shock, then the pain, and finally the anger. I’d never seen her so hurt. I can’t help but feel sick to my stomach thinking about how I could’ve handled things differently. If only I hadn’t been so stupid and careless. How do I win her back? The thought churns in my mind like a relentless tide. What can I possibly say or do to make this right? And wh

NathanielAs the evening draws to a close, I feel the exhaustion of the day settling in. The weight of my decisions and the uncertainty of the future press down on me, but for now, I have to deal with Anna's choice. It's not what I want, and it's fraught with challenges, but it's a start.I leave Anna in the dining room, needing a moment to collect my thoughts. As I step outside, the cool night air helps to clear my mind.

The lawyers have left, but their words linger in my mind. The path ahead is uncertain, but I know one thing for sure: I won't let Anna or anyone else destroy Megra, and I know Anna can and will. If I don’t do what she wants, I will be fucked. I can't fight her.As I sit at my desk, I draft a letter to Megra, pouring my heart into every word. I tell her how much I love her, how sorry I

Chapter 45

MegraThe morning sun spills through the windows of my cosy house, casting a warm glow over the furniture and filling the room with a sense of calm. I push my sadness away as I sit across from Mrs. Alice, her kind eyes twinkling with pride and encouragement as we share a pot of tea."Megra, I am so proud of you, and we are happy to have you," she says, her voice full of warmth and sincerity. "This new teaching position is just the beginning for you."I smile, my heart swelling with gratitude and excitement. Mrs. Alice has always believed in me, even when I doubted myself. Her support has been unwavering. "Thank you, Mrs. Alice. I couldn't have done it without your guidance and encouragement. I really need this." I feel better knowing I will be going back to doing something I actually love.She waves a dismissive hand, but her eyes shine with affection. "Nonsense, my dear. You've always worked hard, and you deserve this opportunity. The children at our school are lucky to have you."As

Chapter 46

NathanielI walk towards the front of the wedding aisle, my legs heavy with dread. Every step feels like I'm pulling myself through thick mud, each one more difficult than the last. My heart pounds in my chest, a wild, erratic beat that threatens to drown out all other sounds. The fear and anxiety coil together in my stomach—a relentless, twisting knot of tension. The hate I feel towards myself and Anna bubbles just below the surface, threatening to spill over at any moment.I glance around the garden, which is beautifully decorated. Flowers of every colour line the aisle; their sweet fragrance is almost sickening. The guests look amazing, dressed in their finest clothes, and their faces bright with anticipation and joy. But inside, I feel nothing but emptiness. I want to break down, to scream, to run. This isn’t my choice. I’m being forced into this marriage, and every part of me rebels against it.My eyes scan the crowd, and I see the satisfaction in my family’s eyes. They think thi

Chapter 47

NathanielI stand, the chair scraping against the floor. I can feel Anna's eyes pressing on me.Her eyes narrow. “You agreed to this. You promised.”I shake my head, the anger bubbling up. “I agreed because you gave me no choice. This isn’t a marriage, Anna. It’s a prison.”She steps closer, her voice dropping to a whisper. “Then let’s make the best of it. For our child.”The mention of our child sends a pang of guilt through me. I look away, unable to meet her gaze. “I’ll come back to the party. Just give me a moment.”Anna nods, her expression softening slightly. “Don’t take too long.”As she leaves, I take a deep breath, trying to steady myself. The reality of my situation crashes over me, causing a tidal wave of regret and despair. But somewhere in the depths of my heart, a spark of hope remains. Maybe, just maybe, I can find a way to make things right.The next day dawns heavy and grey, mirroring the turmoil in my mind. I pace around the house, my steps echoing off the walls. Eve

Chapter 48

MegraI pace back and forth in the living room, my heart racing and thoughts swirling in my head like a storm. I can't seem to find my breath, and the room feels like it's closing in on me. Every step I take feels heavy, laden with the weight of everything that's happening. The walls, once familiar and comforting, now seem oppressive, crowding me in."Are you okay?" Liza's voice breaks through the haze, soft but tinged with concern. She's standing in the doorway, her brow furrowed, her eyes searching my face for answers."No," I respond, my voice cracking under the pressure. "Why did you have to let it slip that I was pregnant in front of Nathaniel?" My words come out in a rush, each one laced with panic and frustration. "I feel like I'm suffocating, like I can't breathe under everything that's happening."Liza steps closer, her eyes full of sympathy. "I got worried when I saw you on the floor," she says gently. "Especially since I know the pregnancy is fragile. I couldn't keep it to

Chapter 49

NathanielI drive to San Francisco, gripping the steering wheel tightly, replaying the chaotic scene at Megra's house over and over in my mind. The memory of my fist connecting with Conor's face, the unintentional hit that sent Megra to the floor, haunts me. The terror in her eyes as she hit the ground is seared into my memory, her pained expression twisting my gut with shame. Then Liza's panicked voice cuts through the haze, asking if the baby was okay. My heart had nearly stopped.Megra, carrying a child. A child I believed to be mine. The shock and overwhelming mix of emotions washed over me. The moment she confessed it was Conor's baby, doubt gnawed at my mind. Could it be true? Could she really have moved on so quickly? No,I know it cannot be true. I know her. Just the idea that Megra can be pregnant with another man's child fills me with a fury I can barely contain, but beneath the anger is doubt. What if she was lying? What if the child was mine?I feel helpless, trapped in a l

Chapter 50

NathanielI stumble through the dimly lit hallway of my house, the bitter taste of whiskey lingering on my tongue. My fingers fumble for my phone, and I finally manage to dial Megra’s number. The ring echoes in my ear, each tone like a hammer against my heart.She answers on the third ring, her voice sharp and wary. "What do you want, Nathaniel?"I take a deep breath, trying to steady myself. I did not expect her to pick up my call. "Megra, I love you; all I want is you. I feel like I’d rather die than not have you by my side."There’s a pause, then she speaks, her tone colder than I’ve ever heard. "How, Nathaniel? How do you want me? As a mistress? Do you plan to cheat on your new wife like you did on me? I can't do this, Nathaniel."Her words cut deep, and I can feel my frustration boiling over. "That was different, Megra. Our relationship wasn’t solid, and then I didn’t even think we had a relationship. Everything was so complicated then. I didn’t think I loved you."She snorts; th
