Liv's POV

The driver’s voice cut through my swirling thoughts, dragging me back to reality.

“Ma’am, where am I dropping you off?”

“Oh.” I blinked, realizing I’d been staring blankly out the window. “19 Clover street please. The first house to your right.”

Rose’s place was the closest to the Blackwood estate. Lara's place would have been more discreet, but I couldn't bear to sit in this car any longer.

It reminded me of him.

The driver nodded, adjusting the rearview mirror to glance at me. I turned my head to the side, trying to shake off the sensation that still lingered from Kaelon’s presence.

How was it that a man could get under my skin like that? Just his nearness sent tiny electric currents racing down my spine, and I hated that I had no control over it.

The ride to Rose’s house was relatively quick, the city lights giving way to quieter streets lined with neatly trimmed hedges and cozy homes. Rose’s place came into view, a charming two-story cottage with a sprawling law

    KAELON'S POV Aaron straightened, as though my presence might change the weight of his words. Liv stood tense, arms crossed defensively across her chest."What made you even feel you could cause chaos in my office complex?" I barked, my voice cutting through the air like a whip.Martha stepped forward, chin raised with faux elegance. "This... woman has bewitched my son. And now, evidently, she’s ensnared you too."I stared at her. Bewitched? Had we time traveled back to some medieval era? "Are you seriously accusing her of witchcraft even to my face?""Don’t you dare mock me, Kaelon! I know what I see. Aaron has changed completely. And now just take a look at you…"Aaron threw his hands up. "Oh, now you care about what my father does? Since when did you give a damn about Dad's decisions?""Aaron!" Martha shrieked.Liv's voice finally broke through. "I can't believe this is happening. Is this some kind of intervention? Because if so, it's laughably pathetic."Aaron turned to her, his f

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    Looked away

    KAELON'S POV The morning sun streamed through the tall windows of my office, casting golden rays over the black marble desk. I leaned back in my chair, a rare smile pulling at the corners of my lips. My fingers drummed against the armrest in rhythm with the thoughts dancing through my mind.Liv.It was strange how quickly her presence had become a soothing balm in the chaos of my world. Last night, we’d enjoyed every bit of it, well not until I left to attend to Viv. I could still hear her voice, soft and raspy from sleep, humming through my chest like a song stuck on repeat."Sir," Louisa's voice broke into my thoughts, gentle and professional, as always.I turned my chair slightly, adjusting my cufflinks. "Yes, Louisa?"She stepped inside, a tablet clutched to her chest. "The board members are here for the nine-thirty meeting. Shall I bring them in?"I nodded. "Let them in. And once we begin, I want no disturbances."She hesitated slightly.I almost added, except if it involves

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    My heart

    LIV'S POV I sat at my desk, fingers frozen on the keyboard, the blinking cursor taunting me with its rhythmic flashes. The blank screen stared back like it knew I was a fraud. The designs that usually poured out of me effortlessly now refused to come. My head was cluttered. Not with deadlines or aesthetics, but with one name and it was Viv.Where the fuck was she?Even though a part of me wanted to scream that she deserved it, the bigger part I tried to ignore, was worried. She was close to her due date, and I couldn't shake the image of her alone and possibly in pain. It haunted me.I sighed, running my fingers through my hair and leaning back into the leather of my chair. Maybe a coffee break would help. Or a walk.Just as I was about to rise, the door creaked open."Miss Bennett?" a voice drawled.I blinked, confused. The receptionist hadn't buzzed. No one announced a visitor. But there she was. Martha, Aaron's mother. Standing in my office like she owned the place.I rose slo

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    Without them

    AARON'S POV I had been sitting there for what felt like an hour, though the clock told me it had barely been fifteen minutes. My legs were crossed, hands clasped together on my lap, as I stared at the bland, overly polished table in the small, private conference room inside Preston Group. A stainless steel pitcher of untouched water sat at the center, flanked by two empty glasses. I had poured nothing. I wasn’t here to be comfortable. I was here for answers.Then the door creaked open. My gaze snapped up.Mr. Preston stepped in first, suit as crisp as always, though the lines around his mouth looked deeper today, more worn. Right behind him was Clara Preston, Liv’s biological mother. Her face was pale, her hands wrung together as she gave me a strained smile."Aaron," Mr. Preston said, nodding politely."Good morning," Clara added, though her voice trembled slightly.I stood, just out of habit, and returned the greeting with a curt nod. "Mr. Preston. Mrs. Preston. Please sit."The

    AARON'S POV Fuck! I didn’t expect to see her standing there. The soft creak of the wooden floor under my shoes had echoed across the silent room, and there was my mother, Martha Rhys. Still as a statue, her perfectly manicured fingers brushed gently against the corner of the picture frame sitting on my nightstand. It was the one photo I hadn’t managed to take down. Liv and I, smiling, happy, locked in a moment that now felt like a goddamn lie. “What are you doing in my room?” I asked, my voice dry and brittle like I’d been chewing on sand. She turned slowly, guilt sitting heavily in her eyes. It wasn’t the look of a mother who stumbled into her son’s space by mistake. No. She had come here with purpose. And I wasn’t in the mood. “Aaron,” she said softly, folding her arms. “I came to apologize.” I scoffed, stepping further in and tossing my keys onto the dresser. “Apologize? For what? The years of silence? For showing up at my door only when it’s convenient for you

  • Pregnant For My Ex-Fiancé’s Father    What exactly

    LIV'S POV I held Kaelon's arm tighter the moment Louisa said those words. The Prestons? Here? At Kaelon's office? The nerve. The utter audacity. I glanced up at Kaelon, searching for his expression. His jaw had gone tight, eyes stormy and unreadable. But he didn’t say anything immediately. Instead, I pressed my palm firmer into his sleeve, letting him know he wasn’t alone in this. He looked down at me and for a fleeting second, something tender softened his features. He tugged me closer to him, his hand finding mine in a swift but quiet gesture. That was all I needed. Reassurance. And just like that, I squared my shoulders. I walked beside him as we stepped into his office. My heart pounded like a damn drumline, but I kept my expression composed. The room smelled faintly of lavender and polished wood. The large glass windows flooded it with light, casting long shadows over the sleek furniture. Kaelon’s office was every inch a CEO’s intimidating, cold, precise.
