JULIA

Morning light filtered softly through the heavy curtains, painting the bedroom in warm gold. I woke slowly, cocooned in heat and the familiar scent of Marcus—dark spice, clean skin, and something undeniably masculine that always made me feel safe. His arm was draped heavily over my waist, palm resting protectively over my lower belly where our baby continued to grow in secret.

For a long moment I simply lay there, savoring the quiet. My body felt deliciously used—muscles loose and languid

  • From My Ex's Betrayal To His Father's Bed   Chapter 197

    JULIATime had slipped away so quietly.One moment I was ten weeks pregnant with barely-there nausea and a small, firm bump. The next, I was twenty-one weeks along, more than halfway through this twin pregnancy, and my body had transformed in ways I could hardly believe when I looked in the mirror.My belly was unmistakably round and full now, heavy with our two growing boys. It sat prominently in front of me, stretching every shirt and dress I owned. My breasts were fuller, my hips wider, and even my ankles occasionally swelled if I stood too long. But the biggest surprise, the one that still left me staring at my reflection in pleasant disbelief, was my face.I had been terrified at first.I’d heard so many stories from other women: pregnancy making skin dull, causing breakouts, dark spots, or that exhausted, puffy look. I had braced myself for it, convinced I would look tired and unattractive as the months went on. But instead, something magical had happened.My skin glowed.It was

    MARCUSThe storm had passed.Julia’s breathing had evened out against my chest, the last of her quiet tears drying on her cheeks. She was no longer tense or sulking, just soft and pliant in my arms, her body finally relaxing after the emotional rollercoaster. I kept one hand gently rubbing slow circles over her rounded belly, feeling the subtle firmness where our twin sons were growing, while my other arm stayed wrapped securely around her shoulders.She was calm now. Coaxed. Safe.I pressed another kiss to her forehead, then to the tip of her nose, and finally to her slightly swollen lips. She let out a tiny, contented sigh and tilted her head up for more. I obliged happily, kissing her slow and sweet, tasting the salt of her earlier tears mixed with the warmth that was purely her.“You okay now, baby?” I murmured against her mouth.She nodded, her voice small but steady. “Yeah… I’m sorry I got so worked up.”“Don’t apologize,” I whispered, brushing my lips across her cheek. “You’re

    MARCUSI lay beside her on the bed, my hand gently rubbing slow circles over her back and the swell of her belly where our twin sons rested. Julia had pulled the blanket over her head again, but I could still hear the quiet, shaky breaths and the occasional sniffle. Each soft sob twisted something deep in my chest.I hated seeing her like this.“Baby…” I murmured, keeping my voice low and steady. I carefully tugged the blanket down just enough to see her tear-streaked face. Her eyes were red and puffy, and she refused to look at me. “Come on, Julia. Talk to me. I can’t fix it if I don’t know what’s hurting you.”She stayed silent for a long moment, her arms wrapped tightly around her bump as if protecting our boys from whatever was upsetting her. I shifted closer, careful not to put any pressure on her stomach, and pressed a soft kiss to her temple.“I’m right here,” I whispered. “I’m not leaving this bed until you tell me what happened. Was it the nursery? Did I place something wrong

    JULIAThe nursery was almost complete.I had spent most of the afternoon resting on the terrace, occasionally calling out small adjustments while Marcus and the team worked tirelessly. Everything looked beautiful — the blue and green accents, the soft bedding, the mobiles gently turning above the cribs. I should have felt happy and excited. Instead, a heavy, bitter feeling had settled in my chest the moment I saw them.Marcus was standing near the hallway outside the nursery, talking to a woman I didn’t recognize. She was tall, elegant, and dressed in a sleek black blouse and pencil skirt — clearly a designer. She held a tablet in one hand and was laughing brightly at something Marcus had just said. Her laugh was light and melodic, the kind that carried easily down the corridor.What made my stomach twist was the way she casually reached out and touched his arm—a soft, familiar slap, followed by her fingers lingering for a second too long as she leaned in to point at something on her

    JULIAThe next morning, the manor buzzed with quiet activity.The large delivery van had arrived early, and Marcus’s men, along with a team of professional movers and interior specialists he had hired, were carefully unloading everything we had purchased the day before. Crates, boxes, and carefully wrapped furniture pieces filled the wide driveway. I watched from the comfort of a cushioned lounge chair on the terrace, a soft blanket draped over my legs and a cup of ginger tea in my hands.Marcus had been very clear: I was not to lift a finger or move around too much.“You carried our sons for eleven weeks already,” he had said firmly when I tried to stand up earlier. “Today, you sit. You direct. And I will do everything you ask.”So that was exactly what happened.I sat like a queen on the terrace, my very visible twin bump resting comfortably on my lap, while Marcus turned into the most patient, devoted helper I had ever seen. He didn’t complain once. Not when I changed my mind about

    JULIAMarcus arranged for everything to be carefully loaded into a separate black van that had arrived discreetly at the back entrance of the mall. His men supervised the loading with quiet efficiency, making sure nothing was damaged and that the more delicate items were secured properly.I watched from a comfortable bench near the exit, my hand resting on my prominent twin bump. Marcus stood beside me, one arm wrapped securely around my waist, supporting my weight as I leaned into him.“You didn’t have to rent the whole mall,” I said again, though my voice was soft and grateful this time.He pressed a kiss to the side of my head. “I did. And I’d do it again tomorrow if you wanted to go back for more.”Once the van was fully loaded and on its way to the manor, Marcus turned to me with that intense, protective gaze I had come to love so much.“We’re not going straight home,” he said. “You’ve been on your feet most of the day, even if you tried to hide it. I made reservations for dinner

    TERRARumors travel fast in this mansion.Faster than footsteps.Faster than servants scattering when I walk past.Faster than Nero’s lies.They move like smoke slipping through cracks, curling under doors, and seeping into the ears of anyone foolish enough to listen.And today, they reached me.I

    JULIA Marcus acts light, teasing, pretending he knows nothing.I didn’t know what was worse. Is it walking back to class with everyone’s voices still replaying in my head, or walking out again knowing Marcus was waiting for me.Every step down the hallway sent a small, anxious pulse up my spine.S

    MARCUS I saw her before she saw me.Julia stepped out of the school building with her head lowered, her shoulders drawn in tight like she wanted to fold into herself. People walked around her, past her, through the space she occupied as if she were nothing but air. And she let them.Pathetic littl

    MARCUSThe door slammed hard enough to rattle the frame.The boy always did have a dramatic exit.I didn’t look up immediately. I let the silence stretch across the room while I tapped the cigarette once, twice, letting the ember fall neatly into the tray. The air still vibrated faintly with Nero’s
