“What do you think you're about doing, Serina?!” The voice yelled, spreading shrills through my pulsing veins.

It wasn't Austin; his voice has nothing to be scared about. Instead it was Nikolai, standing right before me looking at me so furiously my heart began to tremble in its ribcage.

How? How did he end up before me?!

The last time I checked, I was trying to jump over the window even though I was heavily pregnant, I was ready to risk it but he was here already. Austin whom I thought

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    18- Is He The Reason?

    Serina's Pov I didn't move. I stood rigidly there for what seemed like an eternity before I shook my head, snapping back to my senses. Whatever this was, I didn't care, never would. I turned my face, pretend to casually go on about my day like I hadn't seen something bothering, when my legs crashed into a flower case I hadn't realized was on the way. I couldn't hold back the pain that instantly coursed through me and winched. When I realized I had made a mistake and Nikolai might hear, I covered my mouth but not only was the sound already out, the flower vase had lost its balance. Although it didn't crash, it fell on the floor, loud enough that it echoed in the hallway. And then, there was silence. I gnashed my eyes shut, my hands tightened by my sides. I considered taking off, heck, I had already taken a step forward but then I froze, like a deer caught in the headlights. It was already too late. Behind me came the person that wasn't supposed to see me. The thud of hi

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    17- Was this real?

    Serina's PovI didn't answer. For the first time, I looked unsure.Nikolai had spoken with so much seriousness, no trace of deceit in his words and still, I didn't know if to trust him or even how to. For all I know, this could be a trap set by him. I never forgave him and refused to go back to living with him. He must have been frustrated, unable to wait any longer so this could as well be some plot he came up with to achieve his goal. “I appreciate that you're trying to help me,” I started, pushing back the small part of me that wanted his protection. “But if your mother comes, if I told her I didn't want to return to your abode, I'm sure she would understand.” I told him even though I wasn't really sure what Mrs. Romano would and wouldn't do. A feeling of unease crept up my skin at the thought and as I gripped my handbag tighter, I realized something. I was speaking. I was no longer gasping for breath. It dawned on me his hand had slipped off. He was faltered and I took the cha

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    Until You Want Me Back

    Serina's PovAs my driver carried my luggage out, I spared the living room a last glance to make sure I didn't forget anything before stepping out of the house to join him in the car.As the car pulled out of the parking lot and tore through the road, I stared out of the window. As my eyes wandered around, taking in the view, a strange feeling of unease settled in my stomach. After this business trip, I would be following Austin to thanksgiving in the next two days and I didn't know how to feel about that. I was just someone he took in and gave shelter. I'm afraid going with him to see his parents was a big step and not as casual as he might have thought it was. Moreso, I was pregnant. What if they saw me and come to conclusions? I sighed into my palm. I was helpless at this point. There was no going back, but maybe after getting through this, I would be able to summon the will to tell him about my plan to find a place of my own. In some way, I knew it was going to give Austin more

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    15- Don't Want To Be Found

    Serina’s PovHe left. He was finally gone but why do I still feel that hollow ache in my chest? As if my heart could burst out anytime soon? I leaned against the door but the next moment, I slumped down onto the ground. I felt empty, weak and angry at the same time. I never thought I'd see Nikolai's face again. Or that he'd come finding me in regret. I saw the look on his face when he noticed my stomach bump. At first the expression on his face was shock, and then surprise– probably at the fact I never aborted but kept the baby. I took in a shaky breath and stood up from the ground, hurriedly making my way inside my room. Once I got there, I dumped down all the clothes inside my closet and began to pack them in my travelling suits. My shoes and jewelry weren't left out. He might have gone now, but his sudden appearance brought back forgotten memories and reopened the scar that I thought had long healed. To myself, chasing him out like I just did might be a final farewell but I

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    14- The Unbearable Loss

    Nikolai’s PovI knew I was determined to soften her heart, but seeing her desperation to create distance between us, it made me feel like some creep. I didn’t expect her to treat me differently or welcome me with open arms after what I’d done to her. Matter of fact I think I more than deserved the hatred, the spite that rolled off her tongue when she addressed me, how she avoided physical contact with me as if I was a disease. What was ironic though was she seemed like someone who had forgotten about my entire existence and was only reminded of it when she found me at her doorstep. Was that how fast she moved on? Fuck, what about the pregnancy? Our child? Was she really going to nurture him on her own, without me in the picture? Serina had already stormed out of the kitchen but her words still remained, echoing loudly in my ears. She wanted me to leave. As much as I wanted to defy her, it was her house. Or rather, some new man’s—who also happened to be my lawyer.The mere thought

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    13- Please, Stay Away

    I didn’t know what I was thinking when I agreed to let him stay over for the night, but I ended up giving up my bed to Nikolai while I made do with the floor. And the cold? It was like a slap to my face. I was instantly consumed by regret. I was torn between enduring it for just tonight, or kicking him out of the bed right this instant. Despite how much I wished I could choose the latter, it was a well known billionaire we are talking about here. I don’t want to imagine kicking him out so late in the night, and anything bad happening to him because I’d surely be thrown into jail. I forced myself to sleep and by the time I woke up, I saw the bed was empty, and Nikolai was nowhere to be found. My eyes widened, a tiny smile curling up my mouth. Wait, don’t tell me he’s left? I swirled around quickly and opened the bedroom door. I needed to confirm his departure. If truly he’s gone, I’d be so happy and— The smile on my face died as I stumbled past the kitchen, and caught a glim

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    11- My Only Way Out

    "Now is not the time to go quiet on me, Austin. Does this mean I'll have to go back to Nikolai?" I asked in a choked voice. I closed my eyes to be calmer in the face of Austin's silence. I just had the quickest race ever from home to Austin's office. I couldn't wait to derive some explanation from h

  • Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife    10- Who Comes Running Back

    Serina's POV"What are you doing here?" To say I was stunned would be an understatement. I wiped twice at my eyes but he was still there, I wasn't fantasizing. If this moment had been told to me before as a prophecy, I would have told that person to stop lying to my face. I stepped back a little, and

    Nikolai's PovOne Month AgoAlthough I spend very little time at home, I wonder why it always felt like something was missing. She's now out of my life, and I won't be seeing her again. My mother's accommodating nature is the reason she spent that long here, thus; now that she's away on a trip, I took

    I didn't shut down the damned Tv. I let it be and flared even more. What the fuck! He got me pregnant, discarded me like some dirty garbage and thinks he can just start a new life with another woman?! Oh, he just did Serina. And you're nothing but the biggest loser ever.The door opened and I looked
