Sophia’s POV . “Sophia.” he smiled widely and came near me, looking at Caroline. “Is she your daughter?” “Yes!!” I nodded with a smile. “Pre-mature delivery?” he asked, to which I nodded my head. “She is beautiful but…”, He complimented and then looked at me. “.... definitely doesn’t look like your daughter. Because neither did she take on you or your boyfriend, aka husband.” I narrowed my eyes at his choice of words, and then he started grinning, “I was just joking.” “I hate this type of ridiculous joke. Moreover, she is my daughter whether she looks like me or not. And he is my husband, not my boyfriend.” “You mean your boyfriend disappeared and never returned back until now?” “Yeah!” I nodded my head. “But my daughter is lucky to have him, and I can guarantee that she won’t have got this much love from her real father that she is receiving from Brandon. All I know is that blood may be thicker than water, but love is thicker than anything.” “I second that.” he smiled. “I’m s
Sophia’s POV.I didn’t know what exactly happened to Brandon. He was behaving colder toward me with each passing day, and it was hurting me. I knew we were not close, but the minimum interaction between us was also ending. Well, not just me, but he was also maintaining distance from Caroline.I wanted to hold him and ask him the reason behind his sudden change his behavior, but then I knew the terms of the contract, and it was clearly mentioned that neither of us was allowed to interfere in each other’s life.A month had passed now, but his behavior was still cold. A part of me had also given hope over it. Moreover, I was even hoping or expecting anything from him when I had to raise my daughter alone after some time.“You look stressed.”, I heard a familiar voice. I smiled when I saw Henry. He gave a small smile to me first and then looked at Caroline.“Hey, baby girl.”, He shook his hand with her, and in no time, Caroline held his fingers. She was learning to grab something too qui
Sophia’s POV . I was about to say something so that they could leave each other’s hands, but before I would have said anything, my daughter started crying. In no time, Brandon left Henry’s hand and walked toward Caroline. He reached near her and picked her in his arms. “What happened, Princess, hmm?” Brandon asked, and Caroline stopped crying the very next moment. ‘Thank you, Caro! You unknowingly helped your mom.’ I mentally thanked my daughter. “I think I should leave instead of being the third wheel in a family.” Henry smiled, on which I smiled back at him and nodded. We gave each other a side hug before he left. The moment I turned toward Brandon, he was throwing daggers with his eyes at Henry and looked extremely pissed. He started walking toward our building, taking Caroline in his arms while I followed him rolling the empty stroller. I was positive that he wouldn’t speak anything, so I initiated the conversation when we entered the elevator. “You know, that was rude. You
Sophia’s POV.“Dad, Martha, Sophia,” Brandon yelled; all of a sudden, everyone ran to the hall, wondering what had happened because of which Brandon was yelling. Caroline was with him. Did something happen to her?“What? What happened? What?”, Everyone reached near Brandon, and he smiled.“Let me show you something to, you guys,” he said happily.“Caro, say dada!!”, He said to Caroline, who looked at him cluelessly. “She just said ‘da da’ twice.”, he explained when Caroline just kept looking here and there.“Wow, you are teaching him to call ‘dada’ first.”, Dad chirped. “She will call me ‘dada.’”, He added in excitement.“Excuse me? Mister. She will call me ‘dada’ you will be her grandpa.”, Brandon snapped, and then an argument started between both father and son. Martha and I looked at each other and shook our heads.These Men.Caroline was now entering her sixth month after two weeks. So, repeating the same sound was going to be common, and they started fighting on the very first d
Sophia’s POV.Brandon took a few steps toward me; he tried to touch me, maybe to calm me down, but I slapped his hand, pushing him away, but he didn’t give up on me; he again tried to reach near me again and then wrapped his hand around my waist.“Just calm down, okay? Calm down”, he whispered softly. I rested my head on his chest and started crying, clutching his t-shirt. He kept caressing my hair with one of his hands while the other one was still on my waist. Not once did he try to stop me from crying, maybe because he could understand my pain.“Why, mom, Brandon? Why her? She is the most amazing person I have ever known, Brandon. I knew she was also from the same family, but not once did she teach Oscar or Owner to hurt innocent creatures even though she knew what they would become in the future.”, I said, sobbing. “I don’t know much, Brandon, but Oliver told me that Mom used to teach all her three sons never to attack supernatural creatures first because they all are not bad; so
Sophia’s POV.Each and every single second was heavy for everyone to pass. I couldn’t help but wonder who would be the next target of our enemy?Until now, I used to feel that there could be a chance that dad and my brothers did wrong by killing every member of their pack, thinking there could be innocent werewolves too who died that night but now, I felt nothing but hatred for those beasts. I think dad did right by genociding the whole pack; I wish he could have killed that dog too.I hadn’t seen that dog, but I was sure, but I was sure that he was nothing but heartless and cruel for sure? And how could someone be like that?“Sleep, Sophia.”, Brandon’s voice rang in my ear. He was trying his best to make me sleep, but I couldn’t. From marriage till now, for the first time, I was in his arms, and Caroline was with Martha in another room. Immediately I sat on the bed when I heard the sound of the vehicle in the middle of the middle.There was no way Oliver could reach here this soon,
Approx one month later!!*Sophia’s POV.I felt someone kissing my forehead, and I opened my eyes only to find Brandon trying to move out of my grips without disturbing my sleep. If you thought that we now cuddle like a couple, then you were so wrong about it. It was just last night I was crying a lot, recalling mom; that was why Brandon handled me in the best way he could. In fact, he handled me in the best way for the whole last month.“Can you please remove your grip from my waist now that you’re awake?” Brandon requested when he found me awake.“Yeah! I’m sorry.” I apologized and quickly removed my hand from his waist.Damn you, Sophia!I scolded myself. He just smiled and then checked on our princess before walking toward the washroom. Even I left the bed and got myself busy with the day-to-day work.“I was waiting for you two.”, Dad said when we joined him at the breakfast table.“Why, dad?”“What’s it, dad?”“I know you both have no idea about it, but it’s your first anniversa
Sophia’s POV.“Everything is packed?” Brandon asked Thursday night after returning from the office.“Yes! Everything.”, I replied, closing the chain of the bag. “But what about your packing?” I asked. “If you are feeling tired, then I can pack your clothes. All you have to do is tell me the clothes that you want to take.”“That won’t be required because I have a lot of clothes in Paris.”, he responded, unbuttoning his shirt. “I used to stay in Paris before moving here.”“Really?” I asked in surprise.“Hmm.”“Then when did you move here?” I asked to know more about him.“Just a couple of months before our marriage.”“Oh.”, It made me realize how little I knew about him. “It is going to be one year of our marriage, and I know nothing about you. So, is there any chance that I will get to know more about you?” I asked hopefully.“I don’t think so. My past is something about which I don’t want to talk about with anyone.”, He said rudely, making my mouth shut.Enjoyed your insult?‘Perfect
