An Heir for my Husband’s Enemy

___________________Who would have thought that in two weeks, my world will begin to fall apart.It started with something small, too small that I thought it normal. It was just a missed period, I mean everyone has that once in a while so I ignored it, then I overthought it, then I panicked. I couldn’t help it and now I was here."What does it say?" Beth, my best friend asked peering down at me."I-i don't know it says to wait two minutes" my hands grew clamy that I almost dropped the stick."Breathe Ayla, it's probably negative I mean, you did use a condom that night right?" Rosa, my other best friend said, she was standing by the doorway and watching me."Funniest thing is I don't remember, i-i can't say for sure what happened that night""Mannn, he really got you good didn't he?""Shut up Beth!" Rosa said chuckling.Of course this situation would be funny to them, they weren't the ones who cheated on their husband because of a little argument. If the test came out positive it was a

___________My heartbeat was so loud it felt like my ears were going to burst from the sound.So many heads were turned in my direction, murmurs broke out, people were talking to each other, my hands grew clammy and my knees went weak. Shit, this has got to be the end of me I thought, because there was no way half of the people around me didn’t hear what I had said. I was truly fucked. "Don't be ridiculous" Beth said loudly, she laughed and Rosa joined her. There was panic in both their eyes but their laughter sounded so natural."You better join in" Rosa muttered with closed teeth.My hands were visibly shaking but I joined in, with the way I trust these girls I didn't even think twice about joining in cause I knew somewhere in between they had a plan to fix my mistake. They always did."Getting rid of a body is very easy, I am pretty sure your husband will gladly take care of the issue for you, I don't even think going that far to get your hands dirty is ideal" Beth said and my eye

_______________Every fiber of my being screamed to run, move at least, but my feet refused to move.I should have walked away, I should have turned around the second I saw him, and pretended I didn’t recognize him.But I didn’t and now he was standing in front of me like a mistake I could not undo.“Missed me already?” he asked arrogantly ugh the nerve!.My fingers curled slightly at my sides, as my nails forcefully pressed into my palms. I forced myself to hold his gaze.“I don’t even know you,” I said, my voice steadier than I felt. This was a whole lot of fucked up. I couldn’t help but look around trying to make sure nobody could see me or us.It was too early for my name to spread around.His smile deepened and I knew he was about to say something stupid and braced myself for it. But what he uttered wasn’t what I was expecting so it was difficult for me to control myself properly.“That didn’t stop you last time.”Heat rushed to my face definitely from anger and not embarrassment

_____________My body refused to stop shaking. I still want to believe I floated rather than walked to my room cause I swear as hell didn’t feel my feet touch the ground.I rebelled against my husband with freaking Cassian Moretti!! I knew I was doomed from the start cause nothing was going well.I should have refused him that day but lust and ego blinded me. Now I was in a spot I didn’t know how to come out of.I picked up my phone and dialed Rosa’s number. She would definitely be with Beth, so there would be no need for two separate calls.“I was wondering when you would call,” Rosa answered, on the first ring.My eyes got teary upon hearing her speak.“Are you okay?” Sniffling “No, it’s a lot worse, it’s so bad…” hiccup “…I don’t know what to do?”“Breatheee, what is a lot worse? What happened?”“Is she crying?” I heard Beth say and it made me even more emotional. Tears streamed down my face and I let them. “What happened?” Beth asked this time.“Moretti!”“Huh?” They both said.

_____________“…..he is definitely up to something” Rosa protested.“Or, he is just intrigued. I mean it’s not every day people like him meet defiant women” Beth cut in.Defiant? Beth thought I was defiant? What does that even mean?“Look all I am saying is if you think he is trying to play a game my advice for you is to play along…”“I don’t want to. I want to leave here, I still have a problem growing inside of me that I am yet to fix. At this point, he is not my problem. His seed is!”I couldn’t contain my frustration. It felt like I just kept moving from one problem to another since that night.“I think I should tell Stefano”“No!”“No!”They said at the same time. Their voices were too loud I had to move the phone a bit away from my ears.“Don’t make such a mistake Ayla. Don’t ever!” Rosa said her voice low.“You are going to act like nothing is wrong. Ignore Moretti as much as you can. Enjoy yourself. When you come home we would figure everything out”“It’s only for a week. By n
