Ofelia’s POV

I did not go downstairs for breakfast.

The moment I opened my eyes, memories from the night before returned so clearly that my entire body became tense beneath the blankets. Damien’s mouth on mine. His hand at the back of my neck. The way he had pressed me against the wall as though weeks of restraint had finally broken inside him.

Then came the part that hurt more.

This was a mistake.

We must forget it happened.

I turned onto my side and pulled the blanket higher, as if hiding ben

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 63

    Ofelia’s POVDamien waited until Victoria left the private dining room.My mother had barely closed the door behind her before he placed his napkin beside his plate and turned toward me. The warmth from lunch had vanished. His expression was calm, but his eyes were too sharp.He had noticed.Of course he had.“Why did you react like that?” he asked.I reached for my water even though the glass was already nearly empty.“React like what?”“When Victoria mentioned pregnancy.”My fingers tightened around the glass.“She surprised me.”“That was more than surprise.”“You’re imagining things.”“I’m not.”I looked toward the door, hoping my mother might return and end the conversation. The hallway beyond the frosted glass remained empty.Damien leaned slightly closer.“You dropped your fork.”“It slipped.”“You went pale.”“I haven’t been feeling well.”“You’ve denied being sick for days.”His voice was controlled, but concern made it gentler than an accusation. That somehow made the panic

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 62

    Ofelia’s POVMy period was thirteen days late.I knew the exact number because I had checked the tracking app every morning, every afternoon, and sometimes in the middle of the night when sleep refused to come.Thirteen days.Almost two weeks.Stress could delay a period.Exhaustion could delay it too.Changes in food, sleep, and routine could affect the body in ways that felt frightening but meant nothing serious.I had repeated those explanations until they no longer sounded comforting.The first pregnancy test remained hidden inside the toiletry bag beneath my bathroom sink. I had not touched it since the night I bought it. Every morning, I told myself I would take it after work. Every evening, I found another reason to wait.I needed more time.I was too tired.Victoria was still awake.Damien might notice if I stayed in the bathroom too long.The excuses had protected me from the truth, but they could not protect me forever.On Thursday morning, I woke before sunrise and lay comp

    Damien’s POV“Whatever it is, you don’t have to face it alone.”Ofelia did not answer.She remained beside me on the terrace with the shawl wrapped tightly around her shoulders, staring at the garden as though the darkness beyond the lights held an escape I could not see. Tears still shone along her lashes, but she wiped them away before they could fall.Ordinarily, her silence would have made me ask more questions.I would have demanded facts, searched for the cause, and begun arranging a solution before she finished explaining the problem.That was how I handled everything.A failing division required new leadership. A security threat required more guards. A difficult negotiation required better terms.People were more complicated.Ofelia was the most complicated person I had ever known.The harder I pushed, the farther she moved from me.So I stayed quiet.The city hummed beyond the walls of the estate. Cars moved along distant roads, their lights appearing and disappearing between

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 60

    Ofelia’s POVI locked the bathroom door behind me and stood with my back pressed against it, listening to the sound of my own breathing.The pregnancy test rested inside my handbag on the counter.For several seconds, I could not bring myself to touch it.The room was warm, but my hands felt cold. I looked toward the mirror and barely recognized the frightened woman staring back at me. My face was pale, my eyes tired, and my lips were pressed together as though one careless breath might make everything fall apart.Damien’s words from the kitchen returned to me.You do not have to handle this alone.He had been speaking without knowing what I was hiding.If he knew, would he still say it?I crossed the bathroom slowly and opened my handbag. The box was buried beneath my makeup pouch and folded scarf, exactly where I had hidden it after it fell in the kitchen.I pulled it out.The label seemed louder now.More final.I sat on the closed toilet seat and opened the box carefully. Inside w

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 59

    Damien’s POVOfelia moved too quickly.The small box disappeared into her handbag before I could read the label. She remained crouched on the kitchen floor for a second, one hand gripping the bag against her chest while the other rested against the tiles for balance.“What was that?” I asked.“Nothing.”The answer came instantly.Too instantly.I stepped farther into the kitchen.“If it were nothing, you would not be hiding it.”“I’m not hiding anything.”She stood and pushed the handbag behind her hip.The movement was almost childish, as though placing it out of sight could erase the fact that I had seen something fall.My gaze moved over her face.She looked pale again. Dark shadows rested beneath her eyes, and the careful makeup she had worn that morning had faded around the edges. She had been quiet for days, distracted at work, and unusually sensitive whenever I asked whether she felt well.Now she was hiding something in her bag.“You left work early,” I said.“You told me to.”

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 58

    Ofelia’s POVThe words on the pregnancy-tracking app stayed in my mind long after I left the bathroom.Period seven days late.I tried to bury the thought beneath work.There were investor emails waiting for replies, revised schedules to review, and a conference call that required new documents from the finance department. Normally, those tasks would have been enough to occupy every part of my attention.That afternoon, I could barely read a single sentence without losing my place.I sat at my desk staring at Damien’s schedule, silently counting dates again.Our first night.The weeks since then.The day my period should have started.Each calculation gave me the same answer.The timing was possible.I immediately rejected the thought.Possible did not mean true.Cycles changed. Stress affected the body. I had changed homes, started two jobs, attended a gala, been photographed by strangers, almost fallen from a horse, and wandered near a forest where something far too large had moved

  • A baby for my Billionaire Alpha Stepdaddy   Chapter 5 – The Door Opens

    Ofelia’s POV It’s just a coincidence, I told myself as I followed Mom up the wide marble steps. Thousands of rich men own black luxury cars. They all look the same. Sleek, expensive, probably made in the same factory. My brain kept repeating it like a prayer. The car outside didn’t mean anything.

    Ofelia’s POVThe plane ride felt endless. I stared out the window at the clouds below, my two suitcases stuffed in the overhead bin and my heart heavy in my chest. Mom had booked the ticket and even paid for a car to pick me up from the airport. Part of me was grateful. The other part wouldn’t stop

    Ofelia’s POV Just like cinderella, I went back reality. I was standing in the center of my apartment thinking about my life when there was a knock on the door. I already knew who it was before I opened it. Mr. Ramirez, the landlord, stood there with his arms crossed, looking tired but firm. “Mis

    Ofelia’s POV It has been three days and that was all it took for my life to turn into a complete nightmare. I hadn’t eaten anything solid since the day Ethan left. Sleep came in short, broken pieces filled with dreams of empty closets and ringing phones. Every time my phone buzzed, it was another
