LOGIN*SIENNA*I returned to the baby's bedroom and settled into a chair next to his bed.I simply wanted to watch him sleep.If my children were still alive...What would their lives look like right now?I pictured taking them on strolls...feeding them and humming lullabies to them.Elvis somehow eased the ache of losing my babies.And over the next few days, I acted exactly like his mother.I became incredibly attached to him and he seemed to prefer being in my arms too.He would constantly pat my cheeks with his tiny fingers.He was such a sweet baby who enjoyed eating...sleeping...playing and giggling.It broke my heart whenever he cried.There was one occasion when I was in the kitchen preparing his food and he tumbled over in the living room.I felt terrible trying to calm him down.It was 9 pm and I'd finally gotten Elvis to fall asleep.I worried the TV might disturb him so I grabbed a magazine to read instead.Suddenly I heard footsteps and my heart jumped.Someone had entered the
*SIENNA*It had been three days since Alexander departed for his trip.Ethan had honored his promise and regularly visited Elvis.He was currently in his office reviewing some documents to better understand a case when his phone rang.Noticing it was Benita, he immediately answered."Hello, Mr Graves."Ethan became concerned.Her voice sounded fragile."What's wrong? Did something happen? Are you and Elvis alright?""Elvis is fine but I've gotten sick and my fever is really bad. I'm afraid I can't properly care for him like this. I'm scared I don't want him to get ill too.Ethan paused to think."I think it's better if I hire a temporary nanny to care for Elvis for a few days. That way, you can rest and get well.""I don't think bringing in a stranger is wise. You know his father wants to keep Elvis's existence private for now. I believe you should find someone you know personally and trust completely. Or you could look after him yourself." Benita suggested.Ethan became worried.Who
*SIENNA*"Alexander, what exactly do you want from me? Why do you keep hurting me this way? You proposed marriage and I accepted. You asked for a divorce and I didn't fight it. Still, you won't leave me alone. You have Kate now but you're here messing with my feelings...do you seriously want two women?" Tears streamed down my face...I couldn't stop them.He was driving me crazy and I'm tired of it He knelt before me and dried my face with a handkerchief.His touch was so gentle and it only made me cry harder.When he acted like this...I felt myself falling deeper in love with him...When he was this soft...he completely melted my heart.And ultimately...I'd be left heartbroken again. But I couldn't continue this cycle anymore.I pushed his hand aside and got up."Alexander, please go." I whispered.I was shocked when he didn't argue…Instead, he began buttoning his shirt, looking at me warmly while he did.Good night." He said, grabbing his suit jacket.He walked toward the door an
*ALEXANDER*"How long will you be away?" Ethan asked."A week or longer." I answered."Don't worry, man. I'll look after Elvis and Benita." He said smoothly.The way he said Benita's name made me scowl."Benita is in her late forties and too sweet to be with. I warned."Why would you say that? I'm not interested in older women.""Sure you're not. Kayla has been gone for years. We both know you've been with countless women while she's away...old and young alike." I joked."Well, that's behind me now. I'm different.""That's your problem anyway. Just please watch over Elvis.""I will."I smiled thinking about his sweet face...After Sienna left me...everything fell apart.I lost all motivation but then he entered my life and made it worthwhile again.He meant everything to me...Another image popped into my mind.Sienna's.I need to see her before my trip to Italy.Three days after Alexander and I slept together, which left me completely confused, I rested on my bed listening to calm m
*ALEXANDER*I softly touched her face on the Screen.She's so difficult...And I thought about whether I could ever change her...I wanted her to always act the way she does when we have sex...I wanted her to always look at me like I was the only man she needed...I wanted her to always say my name.I closed my eyes for a second.Should I call her?Was she upset that I seduced her last night?She might not want to speak to me.And I felt really happy today.I didn't want to call her and hear her say that the sex didn't matter to her. I had to invite Ethan to meet me tonight so I wouldn't give in a temptation going to Sienna's house again.*SIENNA*I got busy the moment I arrived at work.I didn't want to think about anything or anyone.Someone knocked on my door."Come in.I looked up to see Sarah entering."You sent for me, manager." Sarah said with an unpleasant look on her face.She was always so full of herself and I heard she knows one of the bosses well.I didn't know exactly w
*SIENNA*I took a shower to wash himself off me and to calm my emotions.This was a mistake...I enjoyed the Sex...I enjoyed how he touched me but simultaneously, I wished none of it had happened.I returned to my bedroom and something shiny near my pillow grabbed my attention...I approached it and my eyes went wide when I saw it was the brooch.The brooch from tonight's auction?Mrs Luca's precious brooch!My heart raced and I had to sit down as I picked it up and held it with my shaking fingers.Was this meant for me?But he never said that.Since he apparently came here after the party...Did he forget it here by accident?He had said he'd give it to the woman he loved most.That was Kate, wasn't it?Or could it possibly be me?What if he intended to leave this for me?I took a shaky breath...Don't jump to conclusions, Sienna.If he truly loved me...he wouldn't have left me.Or maybe he left it here out of guilt about what happened?Because he knew we crossed a line we shouldn't
