PHOEBE

The morning air in the kitchen was heavy with the smell of burnt toast and bitter coffee, but it wasn’t the food that made me tense. It was Julia.

She moved slowly, carrying a tray of freshly baked pastries, her fingers brushing the edges with care as if one wrong move would shatter everything. Her head was slightly lowered, her shoulders stiff. I could see the weight of the household on her, the unspoken rules that every glance and whisper could slice her down to nothing.

    JULIAMarcus held me close for a long moment after I finished pleasing him, his strong arms wrapped around me protectively. His breathing was still heavy, chest rising and falling against my cheek as I rested my head there. One of his hands stroked my hair gently while the other rested on my rounded belly, cradling the twin bump with careful reverence.“You were perfect,” he murmured, voice low and rough from his release. “So fucking perfect for Daddy.”I smiled against his chest, feeling warm and satisfied even though my own body was still aching with need.Marcus pulled back just enough to look at me, his dark eyes searching my face with that intense concern he always carried now. He brushed his thumb over my swollen lower lip, still glistening from taking him.“But we’re not done yet, baby,” he said softly. “You took such good care of me. Now it’s my turn to take care of you.”I bit my lip, heat flooding my cheeks. “Daddy… you don’t have to—”“I want to,” he interrupted gently but

    JULIAThe rest of dinner passed in a warm haze of laughter and excited plans. I couldn’t stop talking about the twins—colors for the nursery, tiny clothes, double strollers, and all the little things we would need times two. Marcus listened to every word, his eyes soft and full of quiet joy, occasionally adding his own thoughts in that deep, steady voice. But underneath the sweet conversation, the air between us had shifted. The word “Daddy” still lingered like smoke, and every time I said it, his gaze grew darker, hotter.By the time we finished eating, the manor had grown completely quiet. Marcus had quietly dismissed all the servants earlier in the evening, telling them we wouldn’t need anything else tonight. The staff had vanished discreetly, leaving the entire wing to ourselves. No footsteps in the halls. No distant voices. Just the soft flicker of the dying candles and the heavy, intimate silence that wrapped around us.Marcus stood first and offered me his hand. “Come here,

    JULIAI nodded but couldn’t stay quiet for long. The news was still so fresh and overwhelming in the best way. Once I started talking, the words just poured out like I had turned into a complete chatterbox.“So, I was thinking,” I began, gesturing with my fork, “we need to start shopping soon. Like, really soon. For the twins! Two cribs, obviously. Maybe matching ones but with different details so we can tell them apart at first. Or we could do one in a soft navy blue and the other in deep forest green. What do you think? Blue and green would look so good together. Or maybe one blue and one red? Red feels strong, like their father.”Marcus listened attentively, chewing slowly, his dark eyes never leaving my face. He nodded occasionally, a small, amused smile playing on his lips.I kept going, barely pausing to breathe. “And clothes! Oh my god, the tiny clothes. We need so many onesies, sleepers, little socks… everything times two. I want soft cotton on everything because their skin wi

    JULIAHe laughed softly, the rich sound vibrating through his chest into mine. “You’re right about that.” He carefully set me back on my feet but kept one arm around my waist, his other hand immediately moving to rest on my prominent bump. “Still… be careful for me, okay?”We stood there for a moment, smiling at each other like two people madly in love. Then Marcus’s gaze shifted past me toward the open door. He noticed the dim lights spilling out from the dining room and caught the delicious scent of dinner wafting through the air.“Hm… what’s all this about, baby?” he asked, curiosity and amusement mixing in his tone. His thumb stroked gently over my bump as he guided me back inside. “Candles? Dinner? You’ve been busy while I was gone.”I took his hand and led him toward the dining room, my pulse racing with anticipation. The candles flickered softly on the beautifully set table, casting warm shadows across the walls. The food was already plated and waiting—steaks sizzling gently,

    JULIAThe moment I stepped inside the manor with the ultrasound envelope clutched tightly to my chest, a rush of nervous excitement hit me. Twin boys. I was carrying twin boys, and Marcus had no idea yet. The thought made my heart race so fast I had to pause in the foyer for a second, one hand resting on my very visible ten-week bump.Phoebe followed right behind me, still buzzing with energy. “Okay, we have work to do,” she declared, linking her arm with mine. “We’re turning tonight into something unforgettable. Marcus is going to remember this evening for the rest of his life.”I laughed, the sound a little shaky from all the emotions swirling inside me. “You’re right. Let’s make it perfect.”We headed straight to the kitchen. I had already sent a quick text to Marcus asking what time he thought he’d be home. While waiting for his reply, Phoebe and I started planning the dinner. I wanted something special but not too heavy—steak, because Marcus loved a good ribeye, roasted vegetable

    JULIATen weeks.It still felt surreal every time I thought about it. Only ten weeks since the doctor first confirmed the pregnancy, and my body was already changing faster than I had expected. My breasts were noticeably fuller and tender, brushing against fabric with a sensitivity that made me wince at times.Fatigue hit me in unexpected waves, and a persistent metallic taste lingered in my mouth. Most noticeably, my lower belly had developed a firm, rounded curve that was far more visible than a typical ten-week bump should be. Loose dresses that once hid everything now clung gently to the swell, making me look unmistakably pregnant to anyone who looked closely.I kept telling myself it was normal—maybe I was just showing early because of my build. But today I will finally get some answers.Marcus had been swallowed by urgent work since dawn. A string of tense meetings and calls that couldn’t be rescheduled. When I kissed him goodbye in his study, he had looked up from his laptop wit

    JULIAThe laughter in the room didn’t reach me. It echoed around, but my chest felt heavy, as if every polite smile and soft conversation carried a shadow I couldn’t ignore. I had seen Terra’s plan unravel in seconds, had watched Marcus regain control so smoothly it felt effortless, but the adrenal

    NEROThe noise in the club didn’t register as sound anymore. It was just pressure, like being underwater too long, conversations blurring into a dull vibration against my skull. Glass clinked somewhere near my elbow. Someone laughed too loudly. The bass from the speakers pulsed through the floor in

    JULIAThe dress felt heavier than it looked.Not uncomfortable. Not restrictive. Just… significant, like the fabric carried the weight of everything tonight was supposed to mean. I smoothed my hands down the sides once more, more out of habit than necessity, watching my reflection with a calm I did
