The morning came with a hollow feeling in my chest. Everything seemed to slow.

I had barely slept through the night; Rowland's appearance had shaken me more than I could imagine. With it came memories I had managed to bury so deeply five years ago. Things I never wanted to remember.

His messages kept popping up on my phone.

“Can we see Selene?”

“We really need to talk.”

I sat alone in the dark, my fingers trembling, unable to respond.

I had gotten up even before my alarm went off and began to c

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   Confrontation.

    Selene’s POV. I leaned on the edge of the sofa. Finally relieved to be home and away from all that chaos. I let my bag slip to the floor. I stared at the light switch a few inches from me and sighed. My body felt limp. I rubbed my belly. It almost felt unreal. If I hadn’t seen the test results myself, I wouldn’t have believed. After all these years another life stirred in me from the same man. I chuckled. "It seems we weren’t able to tell Daddy about you. Things are really going south, and I really don’t want you growing up in this environment.” I exhaled again. “We might have to move, honey. I don’t know if I can handle another secret.” The silence of the house echoed. “I wish you were here, Sophie." I cleared my throat. My tongue felt uncomfortably dry. “We need a glass of water, honey.” I stood slowly, supporting my weight with the edges of the couch. “Someone might think I am crazy. Talking to an embryo.” I headed to the kitchen. “Well, everyone seem

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   Something isn’t right.

    Selene’s POV. "No, Selene.” Rowland shook his head. "You can't come with me. What if he’s there?” “I know Tom better than anyone else…” “No, no, no. Selene. I understand you are trying to be strong and independent, but leave this for professionals.” I gazed at him. “What’s that supposed to mean?” “I am going to inform the police.” I frowned.“And then?”“And then I’ll go.”“Rowland—”“They need to know where I’m headed in case something goes wrong.”I stared at him.He reached for his phone and placed it over his ear. My eyes still lingered on the lipstick stain on his collar. This isn’t the time, Selene. He turned to me after the call. “What did they say?” “They said they are sending their team there now. I have to be there.” He walked towards the door. I followed behind him.He watched me walk past him and said nothing. Good. The drive to the location was too quiet. The faint smell of the perfume still lingered in the car. I took out a small bottle of body mist and s

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   I can explain.

    Rowland’s POVI groaned. My eyelids felt as though they had been glued shut. My eyes fluttered open slowly to meet an unfamiliar ceiling. This wasn’t my house. “You are awake!” I jerked up from the sofa, looking around wildly.“…what time is it?”She glanced at the clock.“A little after eight.”Eight?My stomach dropped.No.“What…what did you do?" My eyes skimmed my body. "Where is my suit?" “Good morning to you too.”She grinned, crossing her legs. She was wearing a robe now. Holding up a cup of coffee to her lips like this was just another morning. "Relax…nothing happened; your suit is here somewhere. You seemed a bit too tense yesterday, Rowland.” I stood instantly, pointing my index finger at her. "You…you spiked my water.” She shrugged. “You think I’d poison a guest?”“I passed out!”“You fell asleep.”Welts of anger flagged up on me. “Why would you do that?" “I told you… you seemed tense. I am no doctor, but your blood pressure must have been on the high side yesterda

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   Isa.

    Rowland’s POV. I only had a few minutes before I would have to head back home. Selene was coming over, and I just wanted to get this over with. The lady, who I later learned is Isabelle. She sounded a little excited over the phone. The building hovered over me. A luxury apartment. I wouldn’t have imagined her living in a place like this. I glanced at my phone again, airplane mode. Just like she instructed. I walked through the sliding doors, and an elderly man in a suit walked up to me. “Good day, sir," with a touch of an Irish accent on his lips. “Good day, I am here to see Isabelle.”His brows furrowed. “Hmm, Isabelle.” Then his eyes widened. “Oh, Miss Croscolft, very well, sir." “Miss?” “I would just make a quick inquiry." He walked up to the long desk and picked up a telephone. He spoke in low tones into the receiver. “What’s your name, sir?” He asked out loud. "Mr. Rowland” He returned to the call, and in a few seconds he straightened. “This way, sir.” I followed

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   Frank Thomas.

    Selene’s POV I walked into the office buildings. It looked just how I had seen it the last time. Except the lady wasn’t around. I walked to the receptionist at the desk. “I am here to see Mr. Frank Thomas." She looked up at me. "Mrs. Selene?” I nodded. “Right this way, ma'am." She stopped at the elevator. “You stop at the seventh floor, ma'am." “Thank you.” The elevator was empty. I leaned against its walls. A million thoughts in my head. What could he possibly want to tell me? I could feel the pregnancy weakness kicking in. Mother had called about five times today. I told her not to inform Dad because I don’t know how he would react. He and Rowland had never really gotten along, and to drop a bomb like this... Oh dear. I just have no idea what I am doing. I closed my eyes shut. “I just wish all these would end.” The first thing that hit me when the doors slid open was the cold. The air conditioner was at its full capacity. The office was at the far end of the hallway.

  • Married to a Narcissist, Pregnant With My Ex’s Child   I am sorry, Mrs. Selene.

    Selene’s POV. Doctor John remained stiff. His lips parted and closed. I arched a brow. “How may I help you?” “Stop the pretense.” I muttered through gritted teeth, "My patience is minimal. You better start talking." He gazed at me for what seemed like minutes. Then he exhaled. “Have a seat, please," he said, pointing to the seat behind me. I hesitated, but my legs shook a little and I didn’t think I could have this conversation on my feet. I sat while he remained standing. He clasped his hands in front of him. “I guess you have found out the truth.” I said nothing. He gazed at me, but his eyes were behind me. “Your husband…” “Ex…” I interrupted. He looked away. “He paid me to do it.” The words hung between us.I waited for him to laugh.To tell me it was some sick joke.He didn’t.My ears began to ring.It felt as though every sound in the room had been sucked away.Tom.Tom had known.Tom had always known.My stomach twisted; I leaned back in the seat. I should have kn

    Tom’s POVA FEW HOURS EARLIER. I sat behind my desk in the office. My mind spiralled.Selene had been acting rather strange lately. She hardly texts me when I don't show up at the house anymore and the way she spoke to me this morning.Her eyes were fiery. I had seen something in them. Something I

    Selene’s POV.I took a step back, placing my hands on the counter for support. My head spun.He stepped forward. Alarm was written all over his face.“Are you okay?”“I am fine,” I managed to say.Was this really Rowland? He stood a few inches taller than me, and his brown curly hair had been trimm

    Selene’s POV I stood up first, my body trembling as we walked in. The doctor looked at his note. “Have a seat,” he said, gesturing to the chairs in front of his desk. “Well, doctor, we trust in your expertise and hope you have good news for us,” Tom said. I clutched my bag, hugging it clos

    PRESENT DAY. Amira’s birthday party. I stood at the far end of the hall, glancing at Tom. Lisa stood beside him. She threw her head back, running her palm over his arm, laughing at something Tom's business associate said. My fingers tightened around the glass of wine in my hand. The nerve
