~ Ronan's Pov ~

I heard the rustling and shifted to the other side of the bed, reaching out to touch her, but it was empty. I opened my eyes, brushing them with the heel of my palm as sleep groggily left me.

Wait a minute. I…slept. I actually slept.

I slept, and it was because she was beside me. It was because she slept beside me.

“You’re up,” I heard, and turned my eyes to where she stood by the wardrobe. In her hands, she held two shirts that belonged to me.

“Which one?”

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 93 : Epilogue

    Epilogue ~ Nyssa's Pov ~I put down the basket on the spread-out mat, setting out disposable plates for Ronan, me and our son, Henry.Instinctively, I rubbed my hand against my round belly as Ronan approached with a wide smile on his face, our son hanging on his shoulder, giggling at some silly daddy joke.“Mommy!” he screamed as Ronan let him down. My cheeks warmed as I pulled my bundle of joy into a tight hug.“Hmm, what's that amazing smell?” Ronan sat down beside me, rubbing my back softly. I had complained about back pains last night, and he had promised to help.Of course I would, knowing I had three people in there. The doctor said the pregnancy was going well this time. I was healthy and would give birth to healthy babies.“Is that chicken soup?”“Yes,” I giggled as I ladled some into a plate for him. Delighted, he picked up the spoon and arranged a plate for our son.Looking back at everything, I was glad. Gllad that he had been with me through the bad days, and now here we

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 92 : Save Her

    ~ Ronan's Pov ~I could barely hear the voices of the nurses telling me to leave. I watched my wife being dragged into the ER, oxygen placed on her. They tried to push me away, but I stood behind the door, watching everything they were doing.I can't leave her alone. I need to stay by her side; she needs to know that I am deeply sorry. The sound of the beep, beep from the machine matched the sound of my almost broken heart.If she were here, she would want me to wait for her—to not give up. So I cleaned my teary eyes and wet face, walked back to where I could sit, and said a silent prayer.She has to be okay. She will be okay.Thirty minutes later, Calder and Rosa came to the hospital, Ruby with them. Why is she even here? I've always hated her; for all I know, she was the cause of everything.“Hey, we got here as soon as we got the message,” Calder said.Bless Chanell for sending the message out. I couldn't even hold my phone properly.“She's going to be fine,” he continued. “She is

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 91: One Year Ago

    ~ Ronan's Pov ~ Flashback | One Year AgoI had hurried out of the meeting to rush back home. It had been a few months since we found out we had a baby on the way, and I'd been extra careful with her. She loved to overwork herself and worry, so I made it my job to protect her.I had driven to the closest McDonald's, as she had fallen in love with their fries, and headed home. Soon enough, I reached the house. Chanel stood outside the door, both hands in front of her. The security men outside had worried expressions on their faces as I got out of the car and walked to the door.“What's the matter?”“It's… it's,” Chanel stuttered.“Spit it out.”“It's madam, sir. I tried to offer her food and she refused. She locked herself up in the room and we've been trying to get her out.”“What do you mean?”“She's acting… violent this time.”I shoved the takeaways into their hands and walked into the house, calling her name as I climbed the stairs. She'd been acting different lately; her behavior

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 90: Truth

    ~ Ronan’s Pov ~ I opened the front door as Anyssa walked inside the house. I followed suit, dropping her luggage on the couch.She stood in the middle of the house, hands crossed over each other in front of her.“I want to know everything.”After the scene at the house, she had decided to come home with me. I didn't refuse, and this time, I would tell her everything she needed to know.“I don't want lies. I don't want you to sugarcoat it for me. I need to know what happened, even if I don't remember it. Please, I need to know, Ronan. I need to know everything.”“It started with the car crash.”I walked right up to her and held her hand, pulling her close to the other couch as I sat. Her eyes were teary, and I could tell she was scared.“Mavis had somehow blackmailed you into leaving the city with him, and somehow, you alerted me. I was so scared that I left what I was doing and ran to you…but I was too late.”I shivered, a cold wave washing over my body. I could still remember the wa

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 89: Ruby

    ~ Anyssa's Pov ~ Two days hiding away from Ronan and everyone. Two days in my room, back at my father's house.After giving it much thought, I decided to leave. I showered, dressed nicely, and walked out of my room. My phone pinged with another notification from Ronan, of course.He should just leave me alone. I'm not ready to talk unless he tells me the truth. Besides, I had decided to start something of my own. I had sent in a few applications to work at a bank. My college certificate was some years old. I shot a quick text to Vanessa. She had been working in Boston for a brand recently, posting on social media, and I couldn't be happier for her.I continued down the stairs, not noticing when I bumped into someone.“Finally, you decided to come out.”“Dad. I've been waiting for you, my sweet.”He held my hand as we walked downstairs. The house was empty, with some of the servants around but barely anyone else.“Where is everyone?”“Oh, your stepmother decided to join the help to co

  • Craving My Father's Best Friend   Chapter 88: Notification

    ~ Anyssa's Pov ~ I clung to the sheets as soon as Ronan stood up. Those were the best hours of my life.“I need to shower,” he said. He kissed me and strutted off to the bathroom. A notification popped up on his phone, and I turned toward where it lay.‘Unknown number: How many more times do I have to beg you to be mine? Yet you're probably in bed with that psycho who can't even remember her own memories or the fact that she's a murderer.’I froze, rereading the text.A murderer? A psycho?Who the hell was this, and why was she texting Ronan's phone? I picked it up, and another message came in.‘No matter how much you fight off the attraction we have for each other, I won't back down until you choose me and not that psychotic murderer.’My hands swiped over the screen, trying to unlock his phone. What was the password?Suddenly, the bathroom door opened, and I was too shocked to drop the phone immediately.“I'm sorry,” I said, dropping it on the bed. “A notification came up, and I wa
