I woke up very late and wasn't surprised to see that Nik's side of the bed hasn't been slept in.

Even before he travelled he had been spending less time in bed and going off to sleep at God knows where.

Lst night, he had left me there in bed. I hoped he will return but he didn't and sometime cc

He entered the room, and the sweat coming off him was testament that he had just visited the gym.

I stared at him, not sure how to bring up what happened last night.

He had crazy eye bags which were

    ELAINE. I adjusted the strap of my bikini and stared at the man beside me with pity. “Here” handing him a sunscreen in a stick formula so he could apply over his exposed areas. Today was the only day since we got to South Korea that we were just lounging and resting. Turns out that I’m the partner that likes to explore and cram a thousand activities on vacation, while he is the one who thinks it’s an opportunity to rest and reset in a new location. What’s the point of coming down here if we are not going to explore? So with his one and half leg we had been doing a food tour through South Korea. I am so lucky that this trimester didn’t have nausea in it, and I’ve been able to eat to my satisfaction albeit with my antacid close by because I’ve been having the worst heartburns. I watched him apply the sunscreen grudgingly and my heart swelled in warmth. This semi naked man with ripped chest and abs, tanned skin and a face that could equal a Greek god was mine. I don’t know when

    “What happened to your face?” I watched him from my position at the vanity and dropped the under eye cream I was applying unceremoniously so that it was the only sound in the room. I could sense that he was going to shut down before he even did. “Nothing.” He shrugged. My eyes followed him as he pulled off his shirt which looked rough, another indication that he was in a fight or squabble. “Who hit you?” I asked instead. Obviously the black eye and bursted lip was an indication that someone did. “Someone disgruntled I know from the past.” He avoided my gaze as he spoke, and chose instead to begin to undress before going straight into the bathroom. I know that I should leave it but somehow the unnecessary secrecy only served to make me even more worried. I swallowed my next words and completed my night routine. It was usually simple; wear my hair in a silk scarf, because it was better for hair health, cleanse my face after brushing my teeth, and then apply my under eye cream, my

    : ELAINE. “Stay longer” Nik's deep, groggy voice muttered against my temples and I let myself relax in his arms. Last night was a long bout of lovemaking and thinking about the things we did, the things he made me do, made me feel like getting dunked in holy water. The soreness between my legs was a testimony. I stayed there in his arms watching him fall back asleep. I stayed there for a while, before I finally fell back asleep. I finally woke up past noon, and gently detangled myself from his embrace which ended up waking him. “What's the time?” He asked, his voice still muffled. “1pm.” Looking anywhere but at the stark naked man lying beside me. “What?” He shouted, and I couldn't help the laughter that bubbled out of me. His shocked expression looked so comical. “I can't remember ever waking up this late in a long time” he sat up and stretched his torso and I couldn't help licking my lips. He truly had the body of a super model. All his dieting and exercise

    Elaine. I shuffled in my chair uncomfortable by the sharp scrutiny of Nik's mother's eyes. I had let the chef cook dinner, because I'm not sure I can handle her judging my cooking. I really wished I could just drink red wine or something to distract myself from the awkwardness that was going on presently. Over the last 6 months I've seen first hand how tense things could get between Nik and his parents and I was mentally dreading the drama. “So, when were you going to tell us you were pregnant?” Her outburst had me coughing not expecting it. I drank a lot of water, surprised she knew but shot Nik a glance, and he shrugged. “We were going to tell you very soon ma” I wasn't sure the best way to placate her. “Hmn.” She snorted. “What matters the most, is that you are now carrying an heir to the Stavros line. This is especially important to your husband I'm sure.” I smiled and nodded gently. “I hope you know you're not getting the deeds to those businesses until the

    Nik stiffened beside me the moment he saw her and so did I. She had a small duffel bag at her feet, and when she got to where I was standing she made to hug me and I hugged her back loosely. “I know you haven't gotten back to me regarding what we discussed but I just couldn't stay in that house one more night.”Nik flicker the wristwatch at his wrist. “I'll have my driver, take you to an hotel nearby so you can spend the night.” Because he already spoke there was no way I could contradict him and honestly, Ii was grateful he did. “I would come see you first thing tomorrow morning, okay?” “Nik bit out some instructions into his phone and his driver arrived to take her bag. She looked quite pissed as she was being led away, but for the life of me I couldn't ascertain why. Nik who had already moved on started walking towards the elevator. “Please can't she just stay with us this night? It's so late to be getting checked into an hotel and all that.” He didn't even bother respondin

    Nik. The meeting I had in Shanghai had finished late last night, and Serena wasn't feeling so well, so Alex had made us hurry back home last night. I thought of telling Elaine I was coming but decided against it last minute. Choosing instead to wait till I got home. My choice was proved right when we had some delays and had to have a long lay over. The moment we landed, Alex headed home to his wife and I headed home to mine. I needed to hold her and sleep. The nightmares had been worse recently and I barely slept all through the week. I had an appointment with my psychiatrist this week, so hopefully, we can get to why I kept having the recurrent dreams of death. In our last virtual consultation, she had spoken about how I hadn't fully healed of the trauma of my upbringing so it was manifesting now that I was bringing a child into the world. She had spoken about me coming in to see her personally but I've been so busy the last few weeks. I sighed heavily and bid my as

    Nik. I stood under the shower as torrents of water poured down on my back and chest. Fuck. I shouldn't have done that. I had sworn to myself that I had better self control when it came to her. But I also really needed this. Not really sure how much pent up energy and sexual frustration I let ou

    Elaine. “Is that a threat?” His voice was dangerously low. And I stumbled backwards scared of the intensity of his gaze. His tie was loosened around his neck and the top few buttons of his crisp white shirt tugged undone. He turned and made straight for the drinks cabinet where his usual bottle

It was an intimate dinner to celebrate Alex’s birthday and even though Nik had previously travelled out, he had to come back to attend it. Everyone around me on this table was d

    What do you want?” I waited with bated breath for his response and Nik noticed I was tense because he suddenly reached out to my other hand to squeeze it. “Hi sissy” his nonchalance high pitched voice came out, annoying me even more. “Don't patronise me,” I snapped and immediately Nik collected t
