ログインNova's point of view A loud laughter escaped me, my hands flew to my bed table that saved me from collapsing to the ground. That woman….the wicked air evolving around her was worse than Margaret's. God! I would have re- lived the same life without dying at all. My fingers tightened….God was actually saving me…. saving me from making the biggest mistake of my life. I stood up with a new determination. God does not give signs twice...but for me, he had given me more than I could count.****************The next morning, my breakfast sat untouched, again. I grabbed a bottle of fruit juice instead…that has become my entire relationship with food lately. I twisted the cap open and took a sip.My eyes drifted toward the calendar, by the weekend I would make a visit to the hospital, and I would get rid of this unwanted seed growing inside me… ..it's for the best!I took another sip, then headed to work. The new project had arrived at the worst possible time. Naturally, I had been assigne
Nova's point of view My heels struck the floor with sharp, angry clicks as I stormed inside the house. Somewhere downstairs, a chair scraped."Nova?" Elsa's voice reached me but I kept walking. "Nova, are you okay?" She cried behind me, but I was already halfway upstairs. My room door slammed behind me, and the silence provoked me even further. I stood there with my back against the door, chest rising and falling, then I pushed away from it and began pacing.What the hell gave Reed the right? I spun around. "Who does he think he is?" The empty room, naturally, had no answer, even my furniture had more sense than the man I had somehow managed to fall in love with. I stopped in front of the mirror, my reflection mocked me. Fuck! I still looked like someone who had spent the last few days being emotionally dragged behind a moving truck.My lips pressed together, I narrowed my eyes, turned and resumed pacing. So that was his brilliant plan now? He had practically sent a small kingdom to
Nova's point of view Reed's hand caught my arm before I could walk past him, forcing me to stop. I looked down at his fingers..“Let go.”“I never ended things with you. “His eyes held mine. “So, you have no right to be in another man's arms.”For a second, I just stared at him, then I scoffed.“You’av really got some nerve.”His brows pulled together.“A lot of nerve coming from a married man.”“Married?” The word came out sharp. “Nova, when did I ever get married?”I laughed without humour. “Please.”“No.” His hand dropped from my arm. “Where did you see the headlines? I told you before, Lisa lied.” He pulled out his phone, his fingers moved quickly, then he held it out to me. “ Watch the CCTV footage of my house that day…. please.”I didn't look down, didn't even bulge. Red sighed, then he took out a piece of paper. “It's the contact of the person connected to that publication. Call them, ask whatever you want.”I folded my arms and Reed stepped closer, then stopped when I moved ba
Nova's point of view “Ha! This is the biggest joke of my life! How many times had I wished…prayed…without food and water to see these two lines. For almost five years…. I had imagined this moment differently.God…I had imagined it in so many different ways that I could have written a damn book about it.My throat tightened as I looked down again, lifting the test closer to my face. “Two lines,” my voice came out as a whisper. A tear slipped down my cheek and I watched it fall. Then I raised my face toward the ceiling.“What is this?” My voice cracked and I swallowed hard. “What exactly are you trying to do to me?”The silence answered and I laughed again, but this time it dissolved into a sound that barely made it out of my throat. Who was writing the script of this ridiculous life of mine? Whoever it was needed to put down the damn pen, because I was tired.My fingers slowly curled around the test. What was I supposed to do now? Should I go to Reed tomorrow, walk into his office an
Nova's point of view I pulled my arm against myself. “Don't care about me. Don't worry about me. Don't do anything.”I stared directly into his eyes. “Just get out of my sight.”Something in his expression broke, but he stepped back. For once, he didn't follow me, I turned and walked away before my knees could betray me again. I grabbed my bag the moment I reached my office, “I'm going home.”Jason straightened..“Nova?”“I need to get checked before I go home.”“Do you want someone to drive you?” he asked.“No.”.My voice came out sharper than I intended, I softened it..“I'll be fine.”Sarah gave me a worried look..“Please take care of yourself.”Jason called after me..“I'll check on you later.”I didn't turn around, but I felt Reed's eyes watching me as I walked away. *************I didn't go to the hospital, I drove straight home.The moment I stepped inside my room, I dropped my bag by the door and walked straight to the bathroom. I filled the bathtub with water hotter than I no
Nova's point of view I sat motionless on the cold tiles for only God knew how long, then a knock sounded against the door. I jolted upright, my hands flying to my face. I wiped my cheeks quickly, reached for the handkerchief on my desk and dabbed beneath my eyes, then took one deep breath, and opened the door.My breath caught as my eyes landed on Reed.For one second, neither of us moved..He stood there in a perfectly tailored suit, but somehow he looked nothing like the man I remembered..His hair was slightly disheveled, there were faint shadows beneath his eyes…and his jaw looked rougher than usual, as though he'd forgotten to care about his appearance.My first instinct was to slam the door….but how dare I ..to the CEO! So, I stepped aside.“Good morning, sir.” The words tasted bitter and Reed's eyes shifted slightly. I forced myself to look at him. “Is everything okay? Do you need me to do anything?”His eyebrows drew together, he stepped inside and closed the door behind him.
Nova's point of view The door of his sitting room barely clicked shut before his mouth crashed down on mine, kissing, biting and nibbling on my lips. He kissed like he’d invented it. And I followed his lead like I had no choice in the matter. He dragged his mouth away from mine, swore as he turne
Nova's point of view I sat across from the doctor, barely hearing him. My fingers dug into the edge of the chair, my heartbeat loud enough to drown everything around me.“Mrs Nova? Are you listening to me?” The doctor’s calm voice sliced through the fog that clouded my brain.I shook my head, swal
Nova's point of view My fingers trembled slightly as I adjusted the lace that clung against my thighs. I held my breath, listening to the soft ticking of the clock echoing through the dim room. “Nova, you’ve got this,” I whispered to myself, pressing my palm against my chest trying to steady the
Nova's point of view “You really should be ashamed of yourself, Nova.” Margaret’s voice sliced through the air before I could even react to the pain on my cheek.“Sleeping outside your husband’s house and coming back looking like…” she paused, her lips curling in disgust, “this….a filthy trash!”T
