In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother Chapter 105
Serena’s POV I shifted my weight, leaning back against the plush velvet sofa, and let out a long, slow breath. I looked down at the curve of my stomach, which now dominated my view whenever I looked down. I rested my palms on the warm, stretched skin of my bump, feeling the heavy, solid weight of the little life growing inside me.For a moment, I just sat there in the silence of the living room, letting the feeling sink in. I was actually doing this. I was surviving.My mind drifted back to those first few months, the dark, grueling days of the first trimester. I closed my eyes, and I could almost smell it again: that metallic, sour scent that seemed to cling to everything and make my stomach flip. I remembered the mornings when I wouldn't even make it to the bathroom before I was retching, my throat burning, my body shaking with exhaustion. There were days when I felt like a ghost in my own home, pale and trembling, wondering if my body would ever stop fighting against the pregnancy
In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother Chapter 104
Roman’s POV I sat on the edge of our bed, watching Serena as she stood in front of the full-length mirror in our bedroom. Her hand rested gently on her belly, fingers spreading out over the soft fabric of her loose maternity dress. The dress was light blue, one of the new ones we'd bought last week when her old clothes started feeling too tight. She turned sideways, a small smile tugging at her lips as she examined her reflection. "Look at that," she said softly, her voice full of wonder. "It's really starting to show." I stood up and walked over to her, wrapping my arms around her waist from behind. My hands joined hers on her belly, feeling the slight curve that hadn't been there a few weeks ago. It was just a gentle swell now, but to us, it felt like the biggest change in the world. "Yeah," I whispered into her ear, kissing her neck lightly. "Our little one is making themselves known." Serena leaned back against me, her head resting on my shoulder. These moments were my favori

Serena’s POV The moment I found out I was pregnant, everything in my body seemed to change all at once. Right after that, the symptoms hit me hard. It was like my body knew and decided to make it real. Morning sickness started that same day. I felt nauseous all the time, but worst in the mornings. I would wake up, and before I even got out of bed, my stomach would churn. I ran to the bathroom and threw up. It was not just once. It happened every morning. Sometimes two or three times. My vomit was mostly bile because I could not keep anything down. Eating became impossible. I barely ate anything. Food that I loved before now made me gag. The smell of it was the worst. Even the smell of toast or eggs, which Roman made for breakfast, sent me running. I hated the smell of coffee, which I used to drink every day. Chicken, my favorite, now smelled rotten to me. I tried crackers or ginger ale, things people say help, but even those turned my stomach. I lost weight fast. In one week, I dro

Roman’s POV I woke up this morning with a heavy feeling in my chest. Serena lay beside me, her face pale under the soft light filtering through the curtains. She had not been feeling well since yesterday. Her skin felt warm to the touch, like a low fire burning inside her. She curled up under the blankets, her breathing slow and uneven. I watched her for a moment, my hand gently brushing her hair back from her forehead. She did not even stir. She had come home two days ago looking completely drained. Her steps were slow as she walked in, slipping off her shoes by the door.“I’m okay,” she said when I asked, but her voice didn’t carry its usual spark. Now, in the soft morning light, she still looked weak. She hadn’t gotten out of bed at all the day before, her assistant, Mia, had to handle everything at the shop. I sat on the edge of the bed, now getting ready to leave for work, my hand resting gently on her shoulder as I asked how she was feeling. She gave me a small smile, tryin
In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother Chapter 101
Serena’s POV The alarm on my phone buzzes softly from the nightstand, pulling me from a dream where I'm arranging bolts of silk in endless rows. I reach out, my arm heavy like it's filled with sand, and silence it with a tap. The room is still dim, the early morning light just starting to peek around the edges of the heavy curtains Roman hung last summer. He said they would block out the street noise, and they do, but this morning, I wish for a bit more brightness to jolt me awake. I lie there, staring at the ceiling fan spinning lazily above. Normally, by now, I'd be up, feet hitting the cool hardwood floor, heading to the kitchen for a quick cup of coffee before diving into the day. But today, my body refuses to move. It's as if every muscle has decided to stage a quiet rebellion, pinning me down under the soft weight of the duvet. I blink a few times, willing myself to sit up, but a wave of tiredness crashes over me, deeper than any late night at the shop has ever caused. The s

Roman’s POV I sat at my desk in the office, staring at the computer screen even though the day's work was done. The clock on the wall ticked past seven in the evening, and the building felt quiet now, with most people already gone home. My mind wasn't on reports or emails, though. It kept drifting back to Serena and her shop. That surprise I planned for her opening, it had all come together just right, and seeing her light up like that still warmed me from the inside out. It started a few months ago, on one of those quiet evenings when we were curled up on the couch. Serena had her head on my shoulder, already a little sleepy, when she mentioned it, how she wanted to own a fashion shop. “Somewhere I can sell pieces that make people feel confident and beautiful,” she had said softly. She sounded tired, but I still caught the spark in her voice, the way her eyes lit up even in that moment. Right then, I knew I wanted to make it happen for her. Seeing her happy, that smile she gives w

Roman’s POV The morning sun filtered through the curtains of my apartment, casting a warm glow across the kitchen table where Serena and I sat having breakfast. She looked effortlessly beautiful even in her casual sleepwear, her hair slightly tousled, sipping her coffee with a quiet ease. There w

Serena’s POV The days blurred together after Roman left. At the beginning, I tried to keep track of the days. I told myself it helped. It didn’t. Somewhere between the first week and the fourth, the numbers stopped meaning anything. Time stretched and folded in on itself, and my days began to loo

Serena pov I blinked my eyes open to the soft light filtering through the curtains. The clock on my nightstand read 6:45 a.m., the same as every other day, even though it was Saturday. Almost without thinking, I swung my legs over the side of the bed. The floor felt cool under my feet as I padded

Roman’s POV The office was almost empty when the knock came. It was late afternoon, the kind of hour when the sun had begun to sink, but the day still refused to let go. Orange light filtered through the glass walls of my office, stretching long shadows across the floor. Most of the staff had alr
