PHOEBE

Rafael drove with the same calm, focused intensity he had shown at the market. I sat in the back seat, clutching the plastic bags of ingredients like they were precious treasures.

Every few seconds, my eyes kept drifting to him through the rearview mirror. The strong line of his jaw, the way his large hands gripped the steering wheel, the subtle flex of his biceps when he shifted gears.

I quickly looked away every time he glanced back, cheeks burning.

    PHOEBERafael drove with the same calm, focused intensity he had shown at the market. I sat in the back seat, clutching the plastic bags of ingredients like they were precious treasures. Every few seconds, my eyes kept drifting to him through the rearview mirror. The strong line of his jaw, the way his large hands gripped the steering wheel, the subtle flex of his biceps when he shifted gears.I quickly looked away every time he glanced back, cheeks burning.Stop it, Phoebe. He’s just doing his job.When we arrived, Rafael parked near the side entrance closest to the kitchen. He got out first and opened my door before I could even reach for the handle. Without a word, he took most of the heavy plastic bags from my hands, his bulky arms making the load look like nothing.“I’ve got these,” he said simply, voice deep and steady.I nodded, suddenly feeling even smaller beside him as we walked toward the dirty kitchen entrance. He carried four bags effortlessly in one hand while I held th

    PHOEBEThe market was bustling with the usual afternoon chaos—vendors shouting prices, the smell of fresh spices and grilled street food filling the air, and people weaving between stalls like colorful threads. I felt ridiculously small and out of place walking beside Rafael.He was huge. Broad-shouldered, heavily muscled, and radiating that quiet, dangerous energy that screamed “Marcus Lucchesi’s personal bodyguard.” His black shirt stretched tight across his chest, and his arms looked like they could bench-press a car. Next to my petite frame, I probably looked like a pitiful little doll someone had accidentally brought to a security convention.But here I was, on a mission.Julia’s latest pregnancy craving had hit hard this morning. She wanted her mother’s exact version of chicken curry, but the manor kitchen was missing a few key ingredients—the special tamarind paste, fresh curry leaves, and a particular brand of coconut milk that Scribonia swore made all the difference. Julia ha

    JULIAThe excitement from the kicks still lingered in the air like electricity even after Mom and Phoebe had left the dining area. The chicken curry was finally ready, fragrant and perfectly spiced, and I was already on my second generous serving when Marcus walked through the front door earlier than expected.He paused in the doorway, taking in the scene—me at the table in his oversized shirt, belly proudly on display, a half-eaten plate of curry in front of me, and the pile of freshly folded baby clothes stacked neatly beside me. His eyes softened instantly, that intense, possessive warmth filling his gaze as it always did when he looked at me these days.“You’re glowing even more than when I left this morning,” he said, voice low and rough with affection. He crossed the room in long strides and leaned down to kiss me deeply, one hand automatically sliding to rest on the side of my heavy, rounded belly. “How are my boys treating their mama today?”Before I could answer, one of the t

    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

    MARCUSThe office was dim, the blinds pulled halfway down so the last rays of sunlight barely kissed the polished mahogany floors. The silence was almost oppressive, broken only by the faint hum of the air conditioner. I leaned against my desk for a moment, hands gripping the edges, feeling the ten

    JULIAI barely had time to process the heat of his lips against mine before my knees threatened to buckle. Marcus, his body, his hands, his presence was overwhelming, pulling me into a storm I didn’t know I could survive. My heart pounded against my ribs, my breath coming in shallow, uneven bursts,

    JULIA I didn’t realize I’d been holding my breath until the car finally slowed to a full stop in front of the DeCavalcante mansion. My heart was still thudding from everything that happened earlier, the kiss, the way he’d pulled me onto his lap, the feeling of his hands gripping my waist like I wa

Even the air felt thick, heavy, humming with something unspoken.Good. That meant news.And where there was ne
