CHAPTER EIGHT: ANN IS PREGNANT?

ANNALISE

"I am not his fiancée. I am just a stranger he met last night." The words hovered in my mind, sharp and insistent, but when I tried to speak them, my throat betrayed me. It felt as if the truth had lodged itself somewhere between my lungs and my lips, refusing to come out. I wanted to make it clear—that I had no claim on Aiden’s words, no place in their world—but all I could do was stand there, tongue-tied and vulnerable.

Instead, what slipped out was al

  • I HEARD HIM SAY " DADDY"   Shadows in the Hospital Hall

    SAM I wasn’t sure how long we stood outside the ICU room before the doctors finally came out. Time seemed suspended, the fluorescent lights above making the walls glow too white, too sterile, as if the room itself was holding its breath. Every second dragged, heavy and suffocating. My heart hammered so hard I thought it would break my ribs. And when the doctor finally stepped out, the expression on his face stopped me cold. Downcast. Tired. Worn. I knew instantly that whatever they’d spent hours doing in there hadn’t yielded the result we’d been praying for. “Elena,” I began, my voice trembling despite my best efforts, but she was already rushing toward the doctor, her hair disheveled, eyes wide with panic, like she had just realized the world itself was crumbling around her. “Doctor! What is it? How is my son?” The doctor straightened, running a hand over his face, exhaustion and sympathy clashing in his eyes. “He’s stable,” he said carefully, “but he’s in a coma.” My stomach dro

  • I HEARD HIM SAY " DADDY"   Prank or Threat?

    AIDEN I sighed heavily as Lisa left the room, her heels clicking against the floor in that infuriatingly precise rhythm that always seemed to announce her presence even after she was gone. I continued to undress slowly, each movement deliberate, trying to convince myself that I wasn’t letting her get under my skin, but the truth was, everything about her already did. Her smirk, careless words, and the way she seemed to invade my space without permission felt like a personal affront, and I had a long, exhausting way to go in this arrangement. My chest felt tight, heavy with a mix of irritation, dread, and the constant awareness that no one in that house—including my own mother—was really on my side. I was about to step into the shower when my phone beeped, and I groaned, dreading the distraction. I picked it up. It was Davis. Up for some drinks tonight? I stared at the screen for a long moment, feeling the weight of exhaustion pressing down on me, unsure if I even h

  • I HEARD HIM SAY " DADDY"   Test Of The Offer

    ANNALISE/ LISA “What does it look like?” Aiden asked, his voice even, almost careless, as though he were commenting on the weather rather than the object currently unsettling my peace. I lowered my gaze to the envelope in my hands, its weight suddenly disproportionate to its size. The paper was thick, textured, expensive—nothing about it suggested insignificance. It has the blackwood seal. “It looks like a letter,” I replied carefully. “A formal one.” He studied me with that unnerving stillness of his, the kind that made me acutely aware of every movement I made, every hesitation in my tone. “And?” I exhaled softly. “And formal letters rarely arrive without any reason,” I added, lifting my eyes to meet his. “So I’ll ask again—what is this about?” Aiden’s lips curved faintly, not quite a smile, but something close enough to unsettle me. “Instead of interrogating me,” he said, “why don’t you open it and find out?” I hesitated unsure of what his intentions were. That hesitation

  • I HEARD HIM SAY " DADDY"   On Schedule

    SOPHIA I dropped the phone the moment the call ended, letting it fall onto the vanity with a dull sound that barely registered before laughter escaped me—unplanned, sharp, and completely out of place. It startled me enough that I pressed my lips together afterward, as though I could still contain it, but the sound had already filled the room. “I really can’t believe this,” I said, more to myself than to anyone else, though I was already turning toward my assistant. Judith paused briefly before responding, her fingers still resting near my temple as she adjusted a loose strand of hair that refused to stay in place. She was good at her job—careful, attentive, and observant without being intrusive—but even she seemed uncertain now, as if she could sense that this was not the kind of news that should be met with easy enthusiasm. “What is it, ma’am?” she asked, her voice light but cautious, as she continued working on my hair. We were already behind schedule, with the fashion sho

  • I HEARD HIM SAY " DADDY"   Funny Sophia

    EVELYN BLACKWOOD I smiled as Aiden and Lisa left the room, their laughter fading behind them like the gentle trailing notes of a familiar song. There was a lightness in my chest, a warmth I hadn’t felt in far too long. My son… my clever, stubborn, infuriating son… had finally found someone to love. Someone willing to step into his world, into the Blackwood family—and she was a designer too. Talented, poised, confident. She could survive Aiden. That was no small feat. I let my fingers trail over the edge of the polished mahogany table as I sank into the chair, letting satisfaction settle over me like a well-earned cloak. This wedding, this joining… it meant more than love, though love was part of it. It meant family. Legacy. The company. All of it secured. I allowed myself a small, private smile, the kind that didn’t need approval or acknowledgment. A sense of accomplishment that was mine alone. The quiet was broken by the sharp trill of my phone. I glanced at the screen and saw S

    ANNALISE/LISA “Excuse us a moment, Mum,” Aiden said.His tone was polite, almost casual, but the moment his hand brushed against my elbow, firm enough to signal that this was not a suggestion, I felt a jolt of tension run through me. The sort of tension that sat under the skin, quietly sharpening every sense, making the air around us feel tighter, almost claustrophobic. It was the same tension I had felt around him countless times before, though this was different—more immediate, more pressing. His mother smiled, her expression warm and approving in a way that felt polished and rehearsed, like a mask she wore for the world. “Of course, son. I trust you got her something for the celebration?” The celebration. The word settled in my chest like a weight. It echoed uncomfortably in my mind, bouncing against every memory I had of this house, this family, and this moment. I kept my gaze steady, refusing to meet hers, because I already knew what I would find there. Approval laced with e
