Chapter Thirty Eight
"What is she talking about?" Fabrico asks me.
I wrap my arms round my body as I'm shaking terribly. Of all the things I didn't want to tell Fabrico, me carrying Blake's child was one of them.
"Is she telling the truth?" He asks again.
"Can't you see?" Aida hums. "She's been using you"
I shake my head. That part's not true but I just can't talk. My mouth is suddenly glued and heavy.
Fabrico blinks rapidly for some time before staring round the table and walking away. I see a triumphant smile on Liano's face and it breaks me. Aida scoffs and then stomp out of the garden. Gina comes to me immediately and wipe my face and that's when I knew I had tears in my eyes.
"Are you alright dear?" She asks and I shake my head. I'm not. She turns to Liano. "How could you be so cruel?"
"He's my brother. I was only helping him" he smirks. "Now, he'd thank me for opening hi

Blake grinned and then collected the bag of groceries in my hand. He looks well dressed, his hair was even well combed and he didn't have the stench of alcohol on him."What are you doing here Blake? I told you to leave me alone" I snap."And I told you I was coming back for you. You wanted me to sober up, I have. What else do you want me to do?" He asked a bit frustrated."I'm done with you so please leave"I snatch my bag from his hand and started walking away."I'm not leaving you alone Selene. We belong together"I'm breathing really hard as I try to walk away from him but he keeps coming after me. I'm confused, angry and hungry right now. And the last thing I want is for Blake to be creeping the hell out of me"And you need me, especially now that you don't have that billionaire of a guy around" He griped and I stop in my track."What

I'm in tears!I reach out to wipe my eyes in my sleep. I've been like this almost throughout the night. Waking up with tears in my eyes but I try not to wake Fabrico on the other side of the bed. He looks tired and worn out and I'll hate to disturb his sleep.More tears roll down my cheek when I shut my eyes and all I saw was a baby laying afar off from me. It was still like it was dead and I was screaming. I snap my eyes opened. The fear is back! The guilt of loosing that child. I scramble off the bed finding my robe by the side, I wear it and walk out of the room and to the kitchen.I stare into the dark street. No cars were moving, no body on the street . It was just dark and empty. I see an image through the glass, coming behind me before he wraps his arms round my waist."What are you doing out of bed?". I ask him."I can't sleep without you in my arms anymore"

I bought dinner on my way home so I was arranging it into plates when Fabrico came in and planted a kiss on my cheek."Good evening, baby" he says somewhat cherry about something. I place down two plates filled with roasted turkey and lamb chops down. "You know fried things aren't good for your health" he reminds me before seating on a stool."I know. At least I'm eating something" I shrug with a smile. "Did you go anywhere special today?""Yeah" he hands me a paper, I take it and place it on the counter. "Read it, Selene"I pick the paper up again and open it. The name insurance interests me so I read the whole thing. It's an health insurance note and it has my name on it. Waving the paper in front of me, I sigh."What is this?""A health insurance" was his simple reply."Why does it have my name on it?"Fabrico takes my hand, pulling me

Kay is by my side when I open my eyes. I'm in hospital clothes and I have a tube sticking out of me. I touch my head as I seat up trying to check out my surrounding."Thank God you're up" Kay says.A nurse is by her side and when she sees I'm up, she comes to me checking my temperature and all that..I try to keep my eyes opened."What happened?" I ask Kay."You fainted" Kay seats by my side and takes my hand. "It's about your health. You need to start taking care of yourself. I don't want to lose you" she warns and I smile. She has an odd way of showing care somtimes."You look fine Miss Brooks. You just need to regulate your eating and what you eat. I write down some things you need to stick too. There are also some snacks you can take" she scribbles something down and hands it to Kay."You're in perfect health"The nurse smiles. I read her tag. Judith.

The day I realised that I love Fabrico was when he came to rescue me from Blake that night. He might not have known it but he was my secret hero. He saved me. Who knows what Blake's plan was when he came over, offering to help me.I stare at Fabrico to see what he was going to do. Do I tell him again or just keep quiet."Fabrico...please say something" I plead."You're pregnant how? I thought you were on the pills" he says and my heart sinks. Is that what he's most worried about?"I thought so too...I skipped taking them sometimes" I say and feel my eye well up. If nothing moved him, that moved him. My tears, so he cups my face."Why are you crying?""I wasn't ready for this Fabrico""So what are you saying?" He asks, a little alarmed."I'm saying... I'm not sure I can do this""Why not?"I burst into a fi

I open my eyes when I feel a hand run through my hair. I see Fabricos face, his eyes are still shut and he looks adorable with a bed head. I smile because I know my hands did that...last night. Even now, I run my hand through his growing curl of hair and then down his face, to his scruffy chin. I kiss it.He stirs but doesn't open his eyes. His long lashes only flattered on his cheek bone. His jaw constricted before he release it again. I feel so lucky to be in his arms. What did I even do to get a man like him. To deserve a man like this. I try not to be emotional as I press my chest against his, wanting to be close to him than ever.His hands come around me but he's still asleep. He easily does it like he's used to it, holding me in his arms.I place my leg on his waist, feeling his hardness poke at my stomach."Fabrico" I whisper.He grunts and mumbles something incoherent. I chuckle an

While I and Fabrico have lived in this Villa for three weeks without anyone knowing, I felt like I still had to do something. I need to quit my job. That way, we can both come out public. We've been living like couples but we haven't made it public yet. I don't even want to but once rhe pap sees me with Fabrico. Wether I like it or not, I go viral.I asked Fabrico couple of times if he missed going to work but he says no. He's been working from home since we both moved here.

"Mrs Valenquez" I gulp. Her eyes roll down my body in resent. Surely, she wasn't expecting to see me at her son's new mansion. But Selene had a feeling Fabrico told her they lived together now. It happened all whick even for her and she wouldn't blame the woman if she nagged her out right now."I see you got yourself all settled in already" Aida state with a frown. She plops her bag down on the white couch before seating down. "I take it my son is not yet home?""No. He had an urgent...""He told me" she interrupts and my eyes roll. Well now she's just being rude. I would've nagged her right now but I don't want to look disrespectful to Fabrico's mom.
