THE PRICE OF BEING HIS She has to be fine
Chapter One Hundred and SeventeenTristan’s POVThe journey feels like an eternity, but we eventually reach the hospital. The ambulance doors swing open, and medical staff rush forward to take Andrea from the stretcher. I follow them, refusing to let go of her hand until a nurse steps into my path.“Sir, you need to wait here. The doctors are taking her in now.”“I’m coming with her.”“You can’t enter the emergency room. Please, let us do our jobs.”I try to look past her, desperate for one last glimpse of Andrea, but they wheel her through the double doors before I can follow. Her hand slips from mine, and the doors close between us.For a few seconds, I stand there, staring at them. Then the reality of what just happened hits me, and I sink into a nearby chair, burying my face in my hands. My clothes are soaked from the rain, Andrea’s blood stains my fingers and shirt, and my arms still ache from the CPR I performed on the road.I can still see her lying motionless beneath my hands.
THE PRICE OF BEING HIS Just live, please
Chapter One Hundred and SixteenTristan’s POV“Call an ambulance! Now!” I shout at my guard as I rush toward Andrea’s car. “Tell them we have a pregnant woman in a serious accident!”“I'm on it, boss!”I barely hear him. My eyes are fixed on the wreckage ahead, where the front of Andrea's car has been crushed beyond recognition. People crowd around it, shouting for help and trying to see inside, but I push past them until I reach the driver's side.Andrea is slumped against her seat, her eyes closed and her head tilted awkwardly to one side. Blood runs from a cut on her scalp into her hair. For a second, I can only stare at her, unable to accept that the woman I was chasing barely minutes ago is lying motionless inside a wrecked car.“Andrea?”I reach through the broken window, but the twisted metal makes it difficult to get to her. Her seat belt is still fastened, and the door won't open.“Fuck!”I grab the door handle and pull, but it doesn't budge. I try again, ignoring the pain as
THE PRICE OF BEING HIS Before it's too late
Chapter One Hundred and FifteenTristan’s POVHe nods and hurries around to the driver's side. A moment later, the engine starts, and we pull away from the restaurant with the second car in our convoy close behind us.I open Andrea's contact and stare at her name for a few seconds before typing a message.‘Andrea, please. Give me a chance to explain. I shouldn't have said those things to you. I'm sorry. Please wait for me. I'm coming.’I send it and call her immediately.It rings several times, but she doesn't answer.I end the call and try again. Still nothing.My jaw tightens as I lower the phone. I've spent three months convincing myself that leaving Andrea alone was the right thing to do. Now that I've finally found the sense to go after her, she won't even pick up my calls.“Sir, traffic is getting heavy ahead,” my driver says.I look through the windshield. Cars are packed tightly together, their brake lights glowing through the rain. The farther we go, the slower we move, until
THE PRICE OF BEING HIS Chasing after her
Chapter One Hundred and FourteenTristan’s POV“What the hell, Tristan?”Celeste’s sharp voice makes me look in the table’s direction. Andrea has barely been gone a minute, but I can still see her tear-streaked face in my mind. I keep hearing the things she said before walking out, and no matter how hard I try to shake it off, I can't get them out of my head.I push the feeling aside and look at Celeste. “Excuse me?”She gets to her feet, folding her arms across her chest. “I've heard the rumours about how ruthless you are, but that was just cruel, Tristan. Who says something like that to someone who just told you she's carrying your child?”My jaw tightens.I don't need a lecture from her. I know what I said, and I know how it sounded. But Andrea knows me. She knows I never promised her love, a family, or a future beyond our arrangement. I made that clear long before she came into my life and turned everything upside down.She knew what she was getting into.At least, that's what I k
THE PRICE OF BEING HIS The price of his rejection
Chapter One Hundred and ThirteenAndrea's POV My hands are shaking now, and I don't even bother hiding it."I spent three months trying to get over you. Three months trying to convince myself that ending things was for the best. I cried over you, Tristan. I missed you so much that some nights I couldn't even sleep. And when I finally started putting my life back together, I found out I was pregnant."I take a shaky breath."I was terrified. I didn't know what I was going to do, and I was scared you'd hate me. But I still came here because I thought you should know."My throat tightens. "And this is what you give me?"He looks as though he wants to say something, but I don't give him the chance."Don't worry. I won't bother you again."I glance at Celeste, forcing a bitter smile through my tears. "Enjoy your date."Then I turn and walk away."Andrea!"I hear Tristan call my name behind me, but I keep going. I refuse to turn around.If I look at him again, I might start hoping he'll co
THE PRICE OF BEING HIS His doubt
Chapter One Hundred and TwelveAndrea's POVFor a moment, Tristan simply stares at me.The shock on his face is unmistakable. His lips part slightly, but no words come out. Then he shakes his head, as though he can somehow dismiss what I've just told him."Are you sure?"I stare at him, hardly believing that's his first question."Yes, Tristan. I'm sure.""How did you check?""I took a pregnancy test."His expression hardens almost immediately. "A home test? Andrea, those things aren't always accurate. If you haven't gone to the hospital to confirm…""For God's sake, Tristan!" My voice rises before I can stop it. "I haven't had my period in months. I've been throwing up, I've been dizzy, and I can barely get through a day without feeling exhausted. Why would you think I'm making this up?"He goes quiet, but the look on his face makes my stomach twist."Because it's impossible," he says finally. "You can't be pregnant."I blink at him. "Excuse me?""We haven't been together in three mo

Andrea's POV “My house in Santorini is becoming a headache,” the silver-head man in front of me says, swirling his drink like he owns the ocean itself. “Every summer there is some renovation issue. The staff says salt air destroys everything.”I tilt my head slightly and laugh, not too loud, not t

Chapter threeAndrea's POVI get home that night, and the first thing I hear is my mother crying.It’s not the first time, and it probably won’t be the last, but it never gets easier standing outside the kitchen door listening so I linger for a moment before walking in. She wipes her face quickly an

Chapter two Andrea's POVThe whole room turns at once.Security stops moving, the host straightens, and every whispered conversation around me dies when everyone heard that voice.I turn slowly, and the first thing I notice is that he isn’t looking at the broken pieces on the floor, or the host, or

Chapter ElevenAndrea’s POVI wake up slowly, the kind of slow where my brain is still half-asleep but my body is already screaming at me.Everything aches.My body feels like it has been through a very polite war, sore in places I did not know could ache, heavy in the best and worst ways. The shee
