Lana’s Pov

I should never have come here. That thought had been sitting in the back of my mind, growing louder every time I saw him. Maybe I was trying to run away from my pain and shame, but stepping into Lee’s home only brought all of it back. And the way he looked at me… It was not just a glance. It was a reminder. A silent question hanging between us. Did he remember what happened that night? Did he still see me the way I saw myself, weak, exposed and confused? I could not meet his eyes. Not because I hated him. No! I was ashamed of how my body had betrayed me that night. The way it responded. The way I had responded. I had never felt something so intense. And now, every time I remembered it, my skin tingled with something I could not name.

As if things were not bad enough, I could smell him. His scent was in the shirt I wore, in the trousers that hugged my legs. And I had not worn a bra. Or pants. I did not think much of it at first, until the fabric brushed my skin and reminded

    He was incredibly handsome. He had light blue eyes and thick brows. His nose was sharp, and his lips were soft and thin. A bit of stubble covered his jaw, giving him an even more attractive look.“I am so sorry, Sir,” I said quickly, trying to step back. He smiled at me.“Are you alright?” he asked gently.I nodded. Somehow, the moment he held me, the dizziness faded.He handed me a bottle of water. I felt a bit embarrassed, but I accepted it anyway.“Thank you,” I said softly before drinking. I gulped down the entire bottle. I had been that thirsty.“I think you were dehydrated. That is probably why you felt dizzy,” he said. “Are you hungry?”“No, Sir. Thank you again for helping me, and sorry for finishing your water,” I said with a shy smile.“Oh, by the way, I am Leonardo Romano,” he introduced himself.His voice had a slight accent. I could not quite tell what his nationality was, but it made him sound even more charming.“I am Natalia Luciano,” I replied, expecting a simple hand

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   A man was holding me.

    Natalia's POV"Sister, come eat. You look so tired," Cassandra said, holding my arm gently.After what happened between me and my boss, my stomach started to hurt. Maybe it was from lying on the sofa for too long."Sister, is your pregnancy making things harder for you? You really look exhausted. Right, Cassandra?" our youngest sister added."Yes, and I think your job might not be good for the baby. Plus, you travel so far. Your boss did not even bother to drive you home," she added, shaking her head.Despite the pain I felt, I smiled at both of them. They are my strength. I keep pushing through because of them."I am okay, really. And my doctor said the baby is doing fine. Do you two want to know the gender?" I asked, trying to change the topic. I knew they were about to talk badly about Sir Marcus again."What is it?" they asked at the same time."It’s a girl." I gave them a big smile. I would have shown them the ultrasound picture, but I did not get a copy from Sir Marcus."Wow, si

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   I still felt anxious around him

    Natalia’s POVI started craving certain foods, corn and pineapple were what I really wanted. I loved how they tasted and how colourful they looked. While walking past a fruit stall, I saw some corn and a whole pineapple. I bought them immediately. I even asked the vendor to peel the pineapple for me.I was so happy because I got exactly what I had been craving. As I walked into the building, I accidentally bumped into a woman, which made her spill the coffee she was holding."I am so sorry, Ma’am," I quickly apologised. She glared at me with anger because the coffee had stained her clothes."See what you’ve done? You ruined my dress! You clumsy fool!" she shouted.“I am really sorry, Ma’am,” I said again. I took out my handkerchief and tried to wipe her stained clothes, but she pushed me and slapped me across the face.The force of her push made me react, and I accidentally pushed her back. Because she was wearing high heels, she lost her balance and fell to the floor. My eyes widened

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   Why am I the one who looks like the villain here?"

    Marcus povI noticed Natalia looked pale and tired. It irritated me. She was supposed to take care of her health, she was carrying my child.“Sir, here’s your coffee,” she said quietly as she placed the cup on my desk.I glanced at her. Her belly was starting to show.“I’m not paying you to neglect yourself! For goodness’ sake, you’re carrying my child! And you look like you do not even care about your condition. Look at yourself!” I snapped.My voice grew louder, nearly shouting. “It’s my child who’s suffering, not you!”She stepped back slightly, startled by my tone.“S-Sir, I’m not neglecting the baby. I sleep at the right time. I don’t skip meals. I’ve also been taking the vitamins my OB-GYN prescribed,” she explained.“Then why do you look so thin? You were not like this before. You’re supposed to gain weight when you’re pregnant,” I said with growing annoyance.“There are pregnancies where women don’t gain much weight. This is just how my body reacts,” she said calmly. I stared

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   I am pregnant

    Marcus' POVI could not sit still. I needed to know if Natalia was pregnant. I had been calling her, but she never answered.I looked at the door when the person I had been waiting for finally walked in. Her eyes were swollen. I felt a sudden pang of sympathy, but why would I feel sorry for someone like her? She was just like my ex, a woman who only cared about money."I have been calling you so many times. Why did you not answer?" I snapped. She flinched slightly, clearly surprised by my raised voice."I am sorry, Sir. My phone was on silent, so I did not hear your calls," she said and handed me a piece of paper. I grabbed it quickly and read it with narrowed eyes. If looks could hurt, she would have been wounded by now.As I read the result, a smile crept onto my face. It was positive. I looked at Natalia, who kept her head down. "You need to take care of my child. I will give you money to support yourself during the pregnancy. But do not do anything I would not like. You have no i
