“Mr. Vale did a great job. You should enjoy your meal.” Clara pulled out a chair for Marina. “This is the first time he’s doing this.” She whispered into her ear before leaving them alone to eat.

“Thank you, Clara,” Marina said dismissively. For a long moment, her gaze was locked on the food and the varieties of fruits spread out before her.

Here, she dined like royalty, with different options to choose from. It wasn’t like this back then in Collin’s house. She didn’t have this luxury, but asid

    “How is our baby, Cassian?” Marina asked, her lips forming a small curve. She rubbed her hands over her belly, trying to remember how the labor had gone. There was no baby’s cry, but she delivered. She knew she did before she passed out. She glanced at Cassian, who stood before her with sad eyes. “I was wondering why she didn’t cry. Babies are meant to cry on their first day on Earth, aren’t they?”His insides pierced. Sharp, stabbing pains hit him, but he remained composed on the outside. He needed to be strong for them.“Marina,” he lowered his hand to touch her, but she flinched, shaking her head.Tears had quickly welled up in her eyes. He was certain she already knew what was happening, but was still living in denial. She was still running away from confronting the truth.“Before passing out,” her breath was coming out unevenly, scaring him. “I overheard the doctor talking about a dead baby. A woman lost her baby.” She placed her hands on her tummy again. It was still swollen, bu

    “We gave her the best treatments. The best team worked with her throughout the process of this pregnancy, but it’s so unfortunate that even with the best medical attention, some pregnancies can’t continue. She delivered the baby, but it's a stillbirth."Cassian felt life had been drained out of him at the news. "A stillbirth? What happened? Where did we go wrong?” His voice was low. He was almost too weak to utter a word.“It’s not your fault, nor is it hers.” Doctor Brenda sighed, her eyes carrying that pitiful look Cassian loathed so much. “Right now, all we can do is monitor her closely to ensure there isn’t excessive bleeding or infection, and we’ll manage her pain.”Her pain? He scoffed. The last words replayed in his mind. Why did she have to go through pain when all she did was try to give life to another life? Just like, they lost their baby.A sharp pain crossed through his at the thought. He never meant for it to turn out this way. He blamed himself for letting her make him s

    “Thank you, it’s been such a long time, I almost forgot how they taste.”The corners of her lips lifted into a smile as she regarded Cassian’s words.“I’m glad you love them.” She bit on some, looking back at him briefly. “I guess I’ll have to teach Clara and Marina how to make these snacks so you get to eat them more often.” Then she rolled her eyes. “Though Clara claims to be an international chef, I wonder why she can’t make these.”“That woman claims to be everything she’s not,” Cassian added dryly.Marina laughed. “I agree with you.” The pain hit again, but it was mild this time. didn’t stay for long before it dissolved. “What else would you like me to make for you?”“Nothing else, Marina. I won’t have you stressing yourself to make food for me when I have staff for that.”Knowing there was no point in arguing with him, she agreed with a shrug. “You don’t strike me as someone who likes late-night snacking.”“I don’t,” he said, wiping crumbs off his lips. “But what do I do when my

    Cassian stood close to the window, taking in the view of the city from their bedroom. Marina walked in, halting in front of her closet for a moment. She picked up a dress, grumbling about how it no longer fit her.“I’m not ready to buy more dresses, Cassian.” She walked over to him, tossing the dress onto the chair near the window.“If they are needed, why not?” He turned around to look at her.“Don’t look at me like that, I know I’ve gotten so big.” Heat flooded her cheeks as she closed the distance between them. “More like a balloon.”He hadn’t noticed it before now, but she was wearing the teddy bear onesie he got her a few weeks ago. He watched her with interest, his lips curling in a light smile.“Where have you been all evening?” He asked as he took slow steps towards her. “You look so cute in that onesie.”She bobbed her head. “Now, I’m convinced you got it so you could laugh at me when I wear them.” She turned, ready to take the onesie off, but he caught her arms, stopping her

    CHAPTERMarina’s breath hitched as Cassian’s tongue tangled with hers. The kiss was everything, soft and consuming. Patient, yet carrying a heavy weight of their lustful desires. He kissed her like a man who had been drowning and finally found air.He cradled her face with utmost gentleness, thumbs brushing her flushed cheeks. She melted into him, her fingers threading through his dark hair, pulling him even closer.“Clara and Anne,” he reminded her as he walked her backward. “They are somewhere watching.”Marina gasped as her back hit the cold wall. “I do not care, Cassian. They should watch.” A moan escaped her when he parted her legs, his eyes dangerously staring into hers. He didn’t seem to mind too.“Tell me if it’s too much. I don’t want to hurt him.” He was careful enough to let her lean against the wall before he started his explorations on her body.“Yes, please.” She bobbed her head, absorbing pleasure. “Yes, right there.”Cassian gently took off her dress, fondling her full

    CHAPTER“I checked out some stores in Downtown Morvane, a perfect environment for your fashion store.”Marina looked up from her plate. “What did you do?”“You talked about owning a fashion brand. It’s best we start working on it now,” he said, reaching for a glass of water. “As a businessman, I do not wait until the idea is perfect before I start executing my plans. I start the moment I know I can make do with the littlest. So, would you be willing to check out the space? It’s a commercial environment. It will serve you well.”She had merely spoken about it. She didn’t know this man would go all the way out for her. She didn’t even have solid plans yet.“Cassian.” She smiled, still taken aback, he would go the extra mile for her.“I don’t want you stressing about anything. Just tell me what needs to be done.”“I haven’t put all thoughts in place.”“We’re still looking at the sites. We’ll settle when you make a final decision. I’m thinking of other commercial areas, but then, you’d ha

    Marina strolled into the living room to see Roselyn relaxed on the couch, her eyes surveying the room as if she had just discovered something new in there. She smiled upon seeing Marina, standing to welcome her with a brief hug.“Look at my friend, all beautiful and glowing.” Her gaze drifted to Ma

    He flattened his wet tongue against her soaked heat. A soft gasp escaped her lips at the electrifying sensation that coursed through her. It was too strong. Gripping. He spread her bud, sucking on her sweet juices. Her hand went over his head, fingers digging deeply into his hair, urging him to car

    “You might want to stay back in the room,” Doctor Brenda said, letting the stethoscope fall back around her neck. “Your blood pressure spiked from the shock you experienced in the hall. You should stay back and get some rest. It will be regulated soon.”Cassian fumed beside Marina. “Thank you, docto
