Miracle's POV To say that I was shocked would be an understatement. When I agreed to accept his help, it was for the sole purpose of seducing him and finishing my plan. I swallowed the guilt eating me from the inside and thought about my mother and I's freedom. We would be free from Norman and his family. We can start a new life together. Call me whatever names for agreeing to bear his child in exchange for our freedom but I am desperate. Not to mention that I long to have a child of my own as well. My doctor told me there was nothing wrong about me and neither Mark, but it was not just the time. I doubt I can give Hawkins a child in a short time so I wouldn't worry about it for now. I promised myself that I wouldn't use and hurt Hawkins too much. I wouldn't stay long enough for that to happen. The moment I find out his weakness, I would be out of his life, and I will never appear in his life again. However, something tells me that would be impossible. Hawkins is a powerful man,
Miracle's POV Hawkins asked me after Brenda left if I was ready to meet his family, and of course I wasn't, but I figured I will meet them soon anyway so why not now and familiarize myself with them? He set dinner for us and asked for my address where he could pick me up but I refused and said I will meet him there. Once we get married, according to the contract, I will have to live with him so he doesn't need to see my current place. I arrived at Fortune, an international restaurant before seven and Hawk arrived at exactly seven. He greeted me with a kiss to the cheek and sat beside me, making me feel that tingling sensation in my stomach again. "Don't be so nervous. My family won't eat you alive." He told me with a chuckle, probably noticing me squirming in my seat. "Oh, before I forget. You need to wear this so they won't be confused." He pulled out a velvet box ring from his suit and opened it in front of me. "I should have brought you so you can pick but we were short of tim
Miracle's POV I didn't get to experience walking down the aisle to the man I loved and standing in front of the altar together. Our wedding was abrupt, out of impulse, and look where that got me. Now here I am, wearing a hundred thousand dollars worth of wedding dress while slowly and nervously walking down the aisle, towards my new husband-to-be, the stranger who saved me, and I will be betraying. Hawkins Pride looked dashing clad in a tailored cream suit, standing in front of the altar with Damien by his side, waiting for me with a charming smile on his face. For a second, I had an illusion that everything was real and not just in contract. But that is just my mind playing tricks on me. I looked around and saw Hawkins' family and close friends I already met and talked to. His family looked happy, and it was strange how they accepted me so easily. On the other side was Anna, the only one from my side to witness what's supposed to be the best day of a bride, but somehow, I didn
Hawkins' POV "What?!" She exclaimed and it was too late to respond because I was already outside the pouring rain and opening her door. "Hawk, are you crazy?!" I laughed and she squealed like a pig when I pulled me outside, still wearing her gown, and we started dancing under the pouring rain. "This is not okay! This is ridiculous!" She kept on complaining while I swayed her around and even dipped her. "But it's fun! Isn't it? Come on! When was the last time you danced in the rain?!" I said loudly in order for her to hear me. "W-Well, I can't remember but it's cold, Hawk!" I pulled her closer by her waist, our bodies touching without any distance and she looked up at me, clearly stunned. "Are you warm enough now?" This is dangerous and I am playing with fire. Ever since I tasted her lips, my stupid dīck hasn't calmed down and I want nothing but to claim her now. Not even the cold rain can wash away my desire for her. I can't remember exactly who moved, but our lips are su
Miracle's POV I can't explain exactly what Hawk is making me feel. One moment, he's making me laugh like I haven't in a while with his antics, and the next, he's staring at me with so much desire in his eyes, and I have honestly never felt so desired in my life. Not even with Mark. When he told me to shower, I half expected him to just do it. I'd hate to compare them, but my ex never really made me feel like what I feel right now for Hawk. I feel parched. I can feel my core tightening and glistening with want. Mark rarely goes down on me but he always expects me to. Then he'd just enter me, finish and sleep next to me without even caring if I orgāsmed. Hawk was a lot different and better. He said things and touched me in a way that made me quiver. He traced my body, he took his time, he complimented me, he made me feel seen, and appreciated. "Here? You want me here?" Hawk asked, his mouth inches away from my quivering core, as if teasing me and I couldn't get myself to look at
Miracle's POV I was excitedly looking out the window, admiring the beauty of God's creation. I can't even remember the last time I was in the same position. Mark never really travelled because he was busy with work and busy licking Norman's boots. It made me think sometimes if he married me or him. "It's so beautiful, Hawk." I exclaimed, my heart filled with happiness, and never took my eyes off the beautiful scenery. I could feel peace entering my system, nurturing my mind and healing my body. This is what I have missed the whole time I was stuck being a housewife and a trophy wife. I was so blinded by empty promises and fake love that I forgot to live. "Not as beautiful as you." Hawk said beside me and I only rolled my eyes at him, turning to look at him and expecting to see a playful look on his face, but he looked serious. I quickly looked away, unable to hold his gaze and tried to hide my flustered face while pretending to be still occupied with the view. A few minutes
Miracle's POV Hawk, being a frequent traveler to Hawaii, was the one who toured me after our... little session in his bedroom. I admit that I am a little disappointed that we didn't do anything but share some kisses and intimate touches. I thought we'll go beyond that, but Hawk invited me to walk around. The place is truly a place to behold. The locals, the place, the food, everything is just too good to be true. Hawk took me to some of his favorite places and even introduced me to some people he knew as his wife, making my stomach flip. The more I spend time with Hawkins Pride, the more I get to know him beyond who he is, or what everyone sees him as. He did not act how I picture billionaires, not that I've been with one. Billionaires don't really mingle with millionaires like my father. They are a different breed, the top of the food chain as they call it. Maybe I'm being too presumptuous, but he's just like any other man for me. He interacts with anyone, regardless of their
Chapter Twenty-One: Hot MouthHawkins' POV"Miracle, stop." I stopped her before my throbbing cōck could enter her hot mouth. I held her chin to make her look straight into my eyes. "Do you want to do this? I don't want you to think that I'm forcing you or you're obligated to."The moment I saw her luscious lips, I wanted nothing but to feel them wrap around me, but this is Miracle we're talking about. A trophy wife her husband probably just used and disregarded when he got tired. Based on my observation, she was no better than a woman discovering sēx for the first time. Her stupid ex must have just selfishly relieved himself a lot of times without caring about his wife. Fūck him and his useless dīck for not being able to satisfy his wife. How do I describe this? I have tasted different types of women in my life, but none of them can even come close to how my wife's sweet nectar tasted. In fact, I can still taste her in my mouth. She was the sweetest pūssy I have ever tasted, and fūc
Chapter Seventy: Double TroubleHawkins' POV"What do you think you're doing?" I asked Miracle through gritted teeth. I was drowning with jealousy. I am trying hard not to explode and ruin Landon's grandpa's birthday, but my patience is running out. I want nothing but to remove his arm around my wife's waist, twist them until I hear his bone breaking, punch his face and tell him not to touch her ever again. After I ruin the bastard's face, I will drag Miracle away from here, ask her why she's doing this, but in the end, I will understand the reason because the last time we met, I fūcked up. Fūck. I missed her so much. My heart almost exploded earlier and it's taken everything in me not to pull her in my arms and tell her how much I've missed her. I wanted so badly to ask how she was, where she was, and if she's doing fine, but as I can see, Miracle looks healthy, and she's still the most beautiful woman in my eyes. I know she's hiding her baby bump behind that dress, but I can still
Chapter Sixty-Nine: PaybackMiracle's POVWhen I first saw Landon, my impression of him was that he's a typical rich arrogant man. Not to mention that he and Hawk are obviously not on good terms. But that changed the more I got to know the man. I didn't know that the days after I saw him in Marina Town would start to change because of him. After our introduction, Landon didn't pry about my relationship with Hawk like I thought he would. Instead, he asked what I was doing here. I told him that I teach grade school students and I've come to know that he's an architect. "Won't they look for you?" I asked him, looking back to the people he's with. He wanted to see the school and asked me to show him the way."Nah, don't mind them. They can find something else to do. It's been years since I was last here so I want to walk around." Landon replied nonchalantly while looking around. "Do you ever wonder why this small town remains the same when the other town is thriving?""I heard no one w
Chapter Sixty-Eight: His Enemy is My FriendMiracle's POVLife without Hawk had been lonely but somehow, I also felt a sense of peace. It was then that I realized that I needed this. I needed some time for myself, to be alone. Being lonely is nothing new to me. Although I grew up with a family, I lost my mother at a young age. She's alive, I can see her, but she became a living statue. My father was never there and he was more involved with his second family. I had friends, I had Mark, but it still felt lonely, until I met... Hawk. He made me feel loved, cared for, for once. With him, it felt like I can be myself, like I can be someone. He didn't make me feel alone. He supported me, he was there for me. And it felt nice. When I left, I made sure that I wouldn't be found. It was hard because I had to transfer from one vehicle to another to avoid CCTV from capturing my location. I also had to change my clothes a few times. It took a lot of effort to make sure they wouldn't be able to
Chapter Sixty-Seven: In the Arms of My EnemyHawkins' POVThree months full of agony, regret and longing has passed and yet, not a glimpse of Miracle anywhere no matter how much money I spend, and effort I put into. Three months of longing to see her again and ask for forgiveness so we can start our story again. Three months of sleepless nights without having her by my side. Three months of endless thoughts and worries about how she's doing. Three months and I finally did what my mother said and patiently waited even though the wait was killing me.I finally realized that she wanted to be alone. To be far from me because I had hurt her so much. I finally realized that searching for her and dragging her back when she wanted to escape from me will only result in losing her completely, and I didn't want that. It was hard, but I learned to live life normally without her by my side. The only thing that makes me feel okay is the fact that I know Miracle is safe out there. Her and my child.
Chapter Sixty-Six: The Truth Within Hawkins' POVThree days. Three freaking days. It's been three days since Miracle left and there was no trace or sign of her anywhere. It was like the world conspired to hide her from her. The bus she transferred to was found, but she transferred a lot of times to escape the cameras. She intentionally did it, and it only showed how much she wanted to get away from me. She never turned her phone on again so they couldn't trace the number, and when I called it again, her number was no longer available. I reached out for the highest and most powerful people I know that can help me, but in the end, they still couldn't find her. She was last seen riding a taxi, and when they interrogated the driver, it was just my luck that he had no record of where he took her. I got desperate as time went by, wondering what or how they were doing. It's not that I don't trust her to take care of herself and our child, but the world we live in is cruel. Hah. How ironi
Chapter Sixty-Five: Nothing Without HerHawkins' POVI knew I acted like a jerk when I didn't deny and clear the situation to Miracle, but I saw no reason to. And maybe part of me wanted to see her hurt which I regretted that night. I thought Miracle would avoid me again but she surprised me when she prepared my favorite breakfast, served me and even picked my clothes. My stupid ego thought she was jealous and threatened by Sarah, and she wanted to mark her territory and convince me she's still better, and that she's still my wife. But when she walked me outside and even told me she loved me with a genuine yet sad smile on her face, I knew something wasn't right. I decided to ignore it, however, because I had an important meeting today, but Miracle didn't leave my mind the whole time. I couldn't sit still and I kept pacing back and forth in my office after the meeting. My phone suddenly rang and Jim's name registered on my screen. My heart pounded in my chest as I snatched it from
Chapter Sixty-Four: Running Away with His Child Miracle's POVWhen Mark cheated on me, I realized that my ego was more hurt than my heart. Maybe because I've already seen it coming, and maybe because my love slowly faded. It was easy for me to forget about him and move on. But when I saw Hawk kissing another woman before my eyes, with me under the same roof as him, my heart broke into a million pieces. My heart shattered along with the sauce plate where the cake I devoured was. It felt like I was stabbed repeatedly and I couldn't breathe. My chest constricted and tears poured from my eyes. "Oops, so the rumor is true." The woman nonchalantly said, as if she didn't kiss a rumored married man in his house where his wife could be. Shameless is what I can describe her. She doesn't even look apologetic. If anything, she looked smug and proud of what she did. "I'm leaving, boss. See you tomorrow." The shameless woman said, sending me a malicious look before provoking me even further wh
Chapter Sixty-Three: The Biggest BetrayalHawkins' POV"Why are we leaving, Hawk? I haven't properly greeted your relatives!" Miracle protested as I dragged her out of the place. "Just do what I say!" I snapped at her, my hold around her wrist tightening. I am seeing nothing but red and I have to applaud myself for not lashing out on Landon when he provoked me. I guess I can still think clearly even when I want nothing but to bash his face until the stupid smirk disappears from his face and gouges out his eyes. Fūck, I can still see his face while I was dragging Miracle out. The scumbag was grinning from ear to ear and I'm sure he thinks he's the winner for successfully provoking me but I don't care. I'd rather have him think he won than see him approach Miracle again. I heard Miracle whimpering but I continued dragging her until we reached my far and I made her sit inside first, careful not to hurt her because she's still pregnant with my child. When I sat beside her, I saw her m
Chapter Sixty-Two: Drowning in JealousyHawkins' POVI wasn't in the mood to attend any party, but I couldn't turn down the invitation of Aunt Blythe, my father's older sister. My family was overly excited about having a new addition to the family and told my relatives about it, now they are bombarding my phone with congratulatory messages and expressing their desire to meet Miracle. Some of them are upset with me because they didn't even know I got married. I didn't want to go anywhere with Miracle, but I guess I have no other choice. Knowing my relatives, they will show up on my doorstep to meet Miracle if I still refuse and I don't want them in my house. When Miracle told me she would buy some things for our baby, I almost joined her. Almost. But then I chose to leave and go to work instead. Normal companies don't work on weekends, but technology companies are different. Sometimes, we even need to work 24/7 when we're working on a hard project. As a boss, you'd think I will leave
