Masuk“Are you married?” I bit my tongue at the question that I have been dreading since I saw him in the boardroom. “Answer me!” His angry yell startled me. I couldn’t fault him for being mad. How do I begin to explain it? If I tell him the truth, we will lose the deal and if I continue with the lies, he will see me as a cheating woman. Either way, I am going to lose so I picked the better choice for me and for my company. “Yes, I am married.” ***** For Maeve Fitzgerald her night with Alessandro Marchesi was pure passion and the best night of her life that can only be one night. For Alessandro, it was so much more. Maeve was sure they will never cross paths again but fate has a different plan and it’s about to change her life forever.

Maeve The first sign that something was wrong when I walked through the front door of the apartment I only recently bought with my fiancée and soon-to-be husband was when I heard a female groaning long and loud like she was in pain. I froze. It sounded too close. Really close. Like in my damn apartment close. I opened my mouth to call out but the voice came again. “God, yes, that feels good.” The voice sounded familiar. And it’s coming from… I walked farther into my apartment, careful not to make a noise. The sound was coming from my bedroom. I brace myself as I press the polished chrome handle and throw open the door. There in bed fully naked was my fiancée and soon-to-be husband… No! He is my husband already. since we registered our marriage officially two months ago. “Shit! What the fuck are you doing here, Eve?” Those were the first words that he said to me when he finally pulled out of the woman he was in bed with. “Is that what you are supposed to say to me?” I didn’t even know how I was still able to speak. I could barely breathe. I turned and started walking away but his hand stopped me. “Eve, wait.” “Wait for what?” I yelled at him and yanked my hand away. He cursed again and sifted his fingers through his hair. “This is all your fault!?” I gasped in shock at his words. No, those words weren’t directed at his mistress. They were directed at me. “My fault? What’s my fault?” I asked him in disbelief. “It’s all your fault! I cheated because of you!” I stared at my fiancée with my mouth open and no words coming out. He just said it’s my fault that he cheated on me. Not just cheated but he cheated a month before our wedding. One month to our big day and I found him dick deep in another woman who was currently still in his bed. Still very much naked save for the bedcover she used to cover herself that was barely covering anything. She didn’t even look a bit remorseful that she was caught in bed with my fiancée. Maybe it would have hurt less if she weren’t someone I knew. Someone I trusted so much. Someone who has been working closely with me for over three years now. My assistant. Violet. One of my bridesmaids. One of the people who has been helping me plan my big wedding. She looked like she was pleased that I caught them. She looked like she was having fun and had been praying for this day to come. Surely it wasn’t the first time. Definitely not. “Why are you just standing there, Eve? Did the cat get your tongue?” His words unfroze my mouth. “What are you even talking about Evans? You are cheating on me with my assistant in our home that we both paid for and you are saying it’s my fault? Have you lost your mind?” I yelled at him. I haven’t even fully processed the fact that this was happening to me. When I decided to come to the house we bought six months ago when we started planning our wedding, I didn’t for once think I would meet my fiancée here because he was supposed to be working on a project. I never expected to see my assistant bent over in all four and asking my fiancée to fuck her harder. Just thinking about what they were doing before I showed up made me want to throw up. “Yes, it’s all your fault! When was the last time we had sex?” My eyes widened at his words. Two months. It was all his idea. The minute we registered our marriage, he suggested that we wait until our wedding night to make love again. That way our wedding night will be even more special. “You suggested it!” I reminded him. “Did I? Or was I just looking for a way to get out of boring sex with you?” I couldn’t believe what he just said. “Boring?” “Yes! Sex with you has been hell and I wanted something better.” I scoffed. “And you got better from her?” I asked, pointing to Violet who was watching us with a sly smile on her face. I had nothing to tell her so I didn’t even bother to address her. “You know what? Don’t answer that.” I told him as I reached for the ring on my finger. I pulled it off and tossed it at him. “What do you think you are doing?” The audacious man asked me. “Obviously, there’s no point in all of this! You found someone else and even though you didn’t have the courtesy to tell me, it’s fine. I can read the room. The wedding is off.” He looked shocked at my words. “The wedding can’t be off! We are getting married in four weeks!” Oh, so he knows? “Not anymore.” I felt proud of how well I was handling everything even though I was breaking apart inside. “Have you forgotten? Legally, you are my wife. We already registered our marriage.” My biggest mistake. I should have waited until the wedding but I wanted our home to be ready before our big day. I wanted us to own the property as a couple and now look where that got me. “That’s okay! I will file for a divorce.” I told him. “You can’t do that. You love me too much and you pretty much don’t have any other option but to marry me.” I swallowed and willed myself not to respond to his insults. “Do you really think anyone else would want you? If you call off the wedding and file for a divorce, you will be alone forever.” I would much rather be alone than be with a fucking cheater. “I don’t care!” Why am I even talking to him while he is still fucking naked and dripping precum mixed with Violet’s essence? I felt sick. “The wedding is off and the divorce papers will be sent to you, make sure to sign!” I yelled at him and was about to walk away when I suddenly realized that I needed evidence. I pulled out my phone and with shaking hands took a video. “What the fuc—“ I used all of my strength to kick the bastard where I knew it would hurt him the most. Yes, his cheating dick. I ran out of there without thinking and didn’t stop running until I got into the elevator and the door closed. I collapsed to the floor of the elevator. Good thing I was alone. I managed to make it to my car and I called my lawyer immediately. I sobbed as I opened my mouth to say the words I never thought I would say in this lifetime. “I want a divorce. Please file the necessary papers to dissolve my marriage with Evans.” I dropped the call after making sure my lawyer heard me and there in my car, I cried.Alessandro “Trust me, you will learn everything you need to know when the time comes,” Nadia said, giving me a tired smile.“I hope so.”“You will. And don’t let Maeve do all the work. You have to be involved too.”I chuckled.“Are you giving me parenting advice when you haven’t even delivered this baby?”I teased her. “I am an experienced mother, thank you very much!”Theo laughed, and I shook my head.“Alright, experienced mother. I will keep that in mind.”“Good.”She closed her eyes briefly, and I watched her face. The smile she had been wearing slowly disappeared, replaced by an expression of discomfort.“What’s wrong?” Theo asked immediately.“Nothing. Just a little uncomfortable.”He adjusted her pillow and brushed his hand over her hair.“Do you need anything?”“No. Just stay here.”“I am not going anywhere.”I watched them for a moment before looking towards the door. The nurse hadn’t returned yet, and I was beginning to wonder how much longer we would have to wait.“Are
Alessandro My heart damn nearly stopped when I saw Theo in tears. “Hey, man, hey.” I managed to say before he threw himself into my arms. I couldn’t even bring myself to ask him the question I knew I should ask. I was so scared of what might have happened to make him cry. “Hey,” I managed again. “I am sorry, I am just so scared! I have never seen Nadia so strengthless. It’s like the baby is sucking the life out of her.” I let out a deep sigh of relief at his words. I thought the worst had happened but he was just scared. Which was very understandable. “Theodore!” We both pulled apart at Maeve’s word. It took only a second for her to reach her brother and jab him. “Do you know how scared I was that something had happened to her?” She hit him in his chest. “I am sorry,” Theo apologized and Maeve shook her head. “Don’t be sorry; she is going to be okay! Don’t scare me like that again!” She warned her brother. “I am sorry,” Theo said to me and I shoo
Maeve “Be good to Nonno while I am away! Also, remember we have to see the doctor tomorrow.” I reminded Andro as he led me to the waiting car about four hours later. “Yes, ma’am I will keep all that in mind, just know that I will be waiting for you to come back so be back as soon as possible!” I laughed at his words and hugged him one last time. “I love you.” He smiled at my words. “I love you.” He repeated and kissed me before I got into the car. “Go inside!” I told him when he stood not far from the car even after it started. He pouted and suddenly, the urge to tell the driver to stop so that I could get down and spend the whole day with him as if we haven’t spent every day for the past week together. He started waving with a very sad expression. “Crazy man!” I whispered to myself and waved back at him. I promised the girls I would be coming; I didn’t want to disappoint them. I smiled when my phone started ringing. “Big brother!” I said into the phone
Maeve “Babe, I think I am going to die!” I chuckled at Andro’s words and ruffled his hair. “No you are not!” He pouted as I wiped his face and gave him water to wash his mouth. His morning sickness has gotten worse in the past week and honestly, I was starting to feel bad for him. Mine wasn’t as bad as his and most mornings like this morning, I don’t get any morning sickness. “That’s it! I am not eating dinner anymore! I think that’s where the problem stems from! If I don’t have anything in my stomach, I won’t have anything to throw up.” I shook my head at him. “That’s not how it works, amore.” He sighed deeply. “I am sorry if I am being difficult; I just feel so—“ I wrapped my arms around him and held him close. “No, you are not being difficult. You are the best man any person could ever meet. I am so glad you are my man! I love you.” I told him and eased out of the hug just to see the smile I knew would be on his face. “You love me?” I chuckled at his innoc
