LUCAS’S POV.I saw it on the internet today. This morning. Their wedding announcement. Oh! I can’t wait! I can’t fucking wait!I scratch my eyes, stretching my hands and feet because I have just woken up from a long nap.I glance down at my cock, erect and stretching through my boxers.I can’t keep living like this. For the past few weeks, since I decided to wait for my plans to be executed, I haven’t gone a day without thinking about Shimma.How could one girl turn my whole world upside down? How could my whole life revolve around just one girl? I want her… so, so bad.I trace my body down to my cock. I shove my hand inside, taking it out of my boxers. It’s hard… so fucking hard.And the only thing I want right now is to fuck Shimma.“Ding!”My doorbell rang, and I sat up, eyes wide open. My cock was still erect due to how hard it was.I pulled up my boxers, grabbed a towel, and quickly wrapped it around my waist before heading to the door.I opened the door slightly, my eyes widenin
“Shimma, I….uh,” she stuttered. “Mum, you’re seeing him; it’s just been two months. Two months, and you’re seeing the man who confirmed him dead? Now I’m starting to suspect you,” I said, but she reached for me quickly. “Shimma, no! How would you say that? I would never in my life hurt your dad. I’m not seeing Doctor Ryle. We just….he’s just been here for me. I love and respect your father, and I would never think of being with another man,” she said. But I found it hard to believe her. His name was saved with a heart emoji, which meant something.“You say you both aren’t having anything, but his name is saved with a heart emoji. Do you like him, or does he like you? Make me understand,” I said. My tone laced with worry. It wasn’t right to lose my father just two months ago and then be with another that quickly. It was fucking suspicious.“Shimma, like I said, he’s just been there for me. I’ve been really bored lately, and he’s the only one drifting my thoughts away from your fath
SHIMMA’S POV.The next morning, I sat across from my mum while we were both focused on our phones. Mattias was working upstairs in his office. He couldn’t leave me alone at home, not when Lucas hadn’t been seen or heard from.“So tell me, do you like this design?” I turned my phone towards my mother. It took her a few seconds before she glanced up at me, which left me wondering why she was so lost in her phone.“Let me see,” she said, taking my phone and scrolling between the two wedding dresses I had shown her.My designer had sent those two since they were the best designs she could come up with, and both of them were exactly what I wanted.“It’s really hard to pick,” my mum said, her eyes focused on my phone.“I know, it’s been hours and I still don’t know which design I should go with,” I said, feeling frustrated as I ran my hand through my hair.“Both are extremely beautiful and elegant, but I think you should go with this design,” she said, facing the screen towards me. “I love
SHIMMA'S POV.We pulled up in front of the gate—our gate.I could feel my heart pounding heavily in my chest as we drove into the compound. The scream, the gunshot.It’s been three weeks, yet returning here had already filled me with memories. I couldn’t help but feel shivers run through me.Mattias had already asked the guards to check each and every corner of the house, which they did, and it was confirmed empty.Once we got in, Mattias and I entered while the guards brought in our luggage.“I hope you enjoyed the trip, love,” Mattias said, holding my hand as he walked me up the stairs. “Yes, I did, I loved it,” I said, smiling up at him.We got to the bedroom, and we both had showers together. Mattias had rented a chef for the day because he was too tired to cook.We decided to take a quick nap before the meal would be ready.———“Phone ringing!”The loud buzz of my phone woke me up from my sleep. I rubbed my eyes, looking out the window; it was already dark. I yawned loudly, str
THREE WEEKS LATER. SHIMMA’S POV. It’s been three weeks since we left California. In that time, we’ve wandered through three different countries, each with its own sights, foods, and feelings. But now it feels like the right moment to return home. We first explored “Santorini, Greece” with its beautiful whitewashed buildings perched on the cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea. Gosh! The sunsets there were so mesmerizing, painting the sky in vibrant hues. Oh, I can’t forget the fresh baklava and grilled souvlaki we enjoyed in charming village cafés. I have always dreamt of visiting Greece ever since I was a child, and Mattias just made it happen. I love my man! Next, we found ourselves in “Tuscany, Italy” The air there was filled with the aroma of wine and ripe figs. We strolled through medieval towns like Siena, enjoying local cheeses and fresh pasta—It was so amazing, i didn’t want to leave. Finally, we ventured to “Kyoto, Japan” The city was harmonious and filled with beautiful
SHIMMA’S POVI dropped my phone on the couch, but suddenly, the realization hit me. I never told my mum about Lucas. In fact, I was planning on mentioning him when she called, but somehow, I forgot, letting her words sink in instead of asking her how she found out.“MOM, HOW DID YOU KNOW?” I sent a quick text, staring at the screen while I waited for her response.Suddenly, the phone buzzed loudly, the screen lighting up with her reply. “DOCTOR RYLE HAD JUST INFORMED ME A FEW DAYS AGO, AND I WAS PLANNING ON CALLING YOU BEFORE YOU TEXTED,” she wrote. And then I nodded in understanding.But why would Doctor Ryle call her to tell her? Wouldn’t he have thought she knew already, since Mattias and I did? The question hit me hard. But it didn’t really matter to me. All I wanted was this whole mess to end. I needed to go back to the peaceful and vibrant life I used to have.I held my tummy, shutting my eyes. I had two humans growing in me, and the last thing I wanted was for them to feel unsa
