Chapter 91

Alex’s POVThe familiar hum of the jet’s engine filled the cabin as we soared through the sky, heading home. Rome had been a dream a much-needed escape but now, reality awaited. I glanced to my side, where Kelly was curled up in her seat, fast asleep. Her head rested on my shoulder, her hand still in mine, the new engagement ring glinting under the cabin lights. What more could I have wanted? What else is there to desire?, I smiled, satisfied this is the love they said men like me cannot afford for it comes with a price, I'm paying it!.I brushed my thumb over her fingers, feeling the weight of everything we’d been through, her wrist still had scars, which the ointments had not completely cleared, I know it will go, I'm looking forward, She deserved peace, love, and happiness, and I intended to give her that for the rest of our lives.A soft sigh escaped her lips as she stirred, blinking up at me with sleepy eyes.“We’re almost home,” I murmured, pressing a kiss to her forehead.She s

Chapter 92

Alex’s POVThe morning of the procedure arrived faster than I expected. I wasn’t one to be nervous about things like this, but something about being in a hospital bed, hooked up to wires and monitors, made me feel powerless, the pathetic look on Kelly's face played its part too, I just wanted this to be done.I hated the feeling.Kelly was right beside me, her fingers tangled with mine. She was doing her best to hide her anxiety, but I could feel it in the way her grip tightened every few minutes, like she was reassuring herself that I was still here.“Hey,” I said, my voice lower than I intended. “You okay?”She let out a quiet laugh, though there was no humor in it. “I should be asking you that, one minute we are in Rome the next we're in a hospital, let's go back to Italy” she teasedI gave her hand a squeeze. “I’m fine, Italy won't make me feel better, even if we're there, I'll be in the hospital”A lie. But I needed her to believe it.A knock at the door interrupted us. Finn and

Chapter 93

Kelly’s POV“Why are you not eating butterfly?” Alex asked concerned“I don't like eating in hospitals”“No one does” Daniela added.Just then I remembered I brought the perfumes I got her from the trip.“Here you go, I brought these here for you”“Awwwnnn Kelly, you're so sweet’“Don't you see what she's doing?,” Alex asked.“Alex, I know you think I'm deviating from the topic”“ I don't think, I know you are, you haven't eaten anything tangible”.“Grab a plate Kelly, you need the strength to watch over Alex too”.“Trust me I'm ok, I'll eat a burger later” I avoided mentioning how I felt nauseous.“Daniela give her some please”.I sat on the edge of Alex’s hospital bed, absently stirring the plate of food Daniela had insisted I eat. She and Alex were both watching me like hawks, their expressions a mix of frustration and concern. I knew they meant well, but the idea of eating in a hospital still made my stomach turn.“Kelly, eat,” Alex ordered, his voice firm but gentle. “You barely

Chapter 94

Alex’s POVThe next morning, I was finally discharged from the hospital after a series of check-ups and a long lecture from the doctor about taking it easy. Kelly, of course, had been hovering around like a mother hen, making sure I didn’t do anything reckless like getting out of bed too fast.Before we left, I asked the doctor for a full pregnancy test for Kelly. I needed to know exactly how far along she was. When the results came back, the doctor confirmed that she was about a month pregnant.A month.That meant that even while she had been kidnapped, while I had been tearing through the city like a madman trying to find her, she had been carrying my child. At that moment she seemed more precious to me than ever, we had eight months to prepare.The thought made something tighten in my chest.I turned to her, my expression softening. “You were already pregnant back then…”Kelly blinked, as if the realization had just hit her too. “Oh my God,” she murmured. “That explains why I kept

Chapter 95

Kelly’s POVThe past few days had been blissful. Alex had made it his personal mission to spoil me, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t enjoying every second of it. If I so much as sighed, he was already on his feet, asking what I needed. Daniela found it endlessly amusing, but deep down, I knew she loved how much Alex cared for me, she has been by his side for too long.However, as much as I felt safe in his arms, something had started to creep into my nights.The nightmares.At first, I thought it was just stress, my body adjusting to pregnancy hormones. But the images that played behind my eyelids were too vivid, too terrifying to be brushed off as a simple symptom.I dreamt of being trapped in the dark, the walls pressing in on me. Cold hands grabbed at my arms, my legs, and faceless figures whispered my name in eerie, distorted voices. Then there was the sharp pain, the sensation of being dragged away, and always—always—a voice laughing cruelly in the distance, it was from the ca

Chapter 96

Alex’s POVThere are moments in life that shift everything you thought you knew. Moments that carve themselves so deeply into your mind that no matter how much time passes, they remain there, untouched, as vivid as the day they happened.This was one of those moments.I walked out of that private club, my conversation with the concierge still simmering in my mind, when I ran into a man I hadn’t seen in years—Mr. Callahan. A man I had barely paid attention to in my father’s time, yet in a single sentence, he had just shaken my entire world.“That’s odd. I saw her not too long ago.”I had spent most of my life believing my mother was dead. My father had told me she was gone, taken too soon, leaving behind only memories. I had grieved for her, learned to live with the emptiness she left behind. But now, this man was standing here, telling me she wasn’t just alive—she had been seen, living, breathing, with someone else.My hands clenched into fists at my sides, and I fought to keep my voi

Chapter 97

Alex’s POVThe city lights blurred into streaks of gold and red as I drove home in silence. My hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, my knuckles stiff and aching. I wasn’t angry. I wasn’t sad. I wasn’t even numb. I had to regulate my emotions, due to the procedure I recently had, I was avoiding any form of complications that could land me back in the hospital.I was nothing.Or maybe, I was everything all at once.My mother wasn’t dead. Maybe I knew this but lived in denial all these while, maybe I didn't tell myself the truth, why was it affecting me all of a sudden.She hadn’t been taken from us in some tragic accident or fatal illness.She left, now that I was having my baby I promise not to leave, except death takes me away.She chose to walk away.And she chose him, what If Kelly leaves?

Chapter 98

Kelly’s POVThe room was quiet, save for the steady rhythm of Alex’s breathing. His head rested against my chest, his body finally losing some of the tension he had carried the entire evening.How tough did it get for his mom go leave her son and go to another man?, how dangerous could it have been.I ran my fingers through his damp hair, taking in the weight of everything he had told me tonight.

Against this, I wanted peace for my baby, I don't want my child to know this life, but this was their reality.Or maybe, we were just two lost souls trying to find our way back to each other.I looked down at him.

Chapter 99

Alex’s POV“Good morning handsome” Kelly greeted as I opened my eyes, she's been awake.“Morning sugar” I replied slowly, I looked up at her, it was her side view, I could see a slight bulge, the baby is growing, I let out an ecstatic smile.“Why are you smiling” she asked as she walked to the bathroom.“Just the little things of life that makes a whole lot of meanings”.“What little thing in particular made you smile”.“Not for you to know”.“Do you know I'm already losing my flat tummy to your baby”.“Our baby you mean” I laughed, standing up to go to the bathroom, my phone beeped, some random website notification popped up, I saw the date, it's been two whole weeks of deliberating about my mom.The weight of the past sat heavy on my chest as I watched the city wake up from the bedroom window. The morning sun painted golden streaks across the skyline, but the warmth did little to ease the cold grip of my thoughts, I hate that the thought of my mom always steal my joy.“I sure do hop

Chapter 100

Kelly's POVI stared up at Alex from my hospital bed, feeling the weight of his worry pressing against me. His fingers were tangled with mine, warm and strong, but I could feel the tension beneath his touch. He was still on edge, still shaken by the sight of me collapsing. I hate being part of his worries, I just wanted to bring him peace, and this baby could be the perfect distraction from all the stress, to redirect him and give him purpose."Stop looking at me like I'm about to disappear," I murmured, squeezing his hand. “I'm alright okay”He exhaled sharply, his thumb brushing circles against my skin. "I can't help it, Kelly. One second, I was at the orphanage, trying to clear my head, and the next, I get a call saying you've collapsed. Do you know what that did to me?"I smiled faintly, trying to lighten the mood. "I imagine you ran like a madman through the hospital halls, why were you at the orphanage I thought you went to work"“I went there to clear my head”Right then I kne
