Anya’s POV

The champagne glass was cool against my fingers. I stirred it once, watching the bubbles rush to the top, and drank slowly. The lounge buzzed with subdued conversation and occasional bursts of laughter from the velvet booths. Women in their silk dresses lounged on the chairs, like beautiful jewelry displayed on a counter. Men watched them.

Red was the color of my dress tonight. Not the same desperate black dress as before, but one that clung to my hips, plunging dangerously low behin

  • Unintended Bride    One hundred and two

    Nina's POVWhat do I do? I thought as I prepared to change lanes, but saw a lorry coming head on and I changed my mind.My mind raced with different thoughts of who could be after me, but only one person came to mind. My heart pounded wildly as I gripped the wheels tightly, my knuckles going white and my breath became short, jagged gasps.The headlight continued to shine in the rearview mirror, shadowing every move I made.I couldn't let whoever the fuck that was follow me home.I swallowed, braced up and slammed my foot on the accelerator. The engine roared, and the car ran forward onto the road, going faster as the speed climbed higher.I saw the highway split into a labyrinth of streets ahead and city alleys so I did the first thing that came to mind.I killed my car's high beams at the last second, and hard cranked the wheel into a sharp, unindicated right turn behind a looming delivery truck.My tires shrieked against the asphalt, and I darted onto a dark side street, killed my h

    Nina’s POV I blinked, pulling back as I looked at the screen, my eyebrows furrowed as I saw what it was. The alarm I had set as a reminder to head back to the twins. Liam's voice broke me from my thoughts. “What's wrong? You look pale,” his hand rubbed against my arm. "The kids," I gasped, my chest tightening as the panic set in. “I left them alone with your mother. What if she hurt them? What if…oh no. I should have brought them with me. What do I do?”Liam hand caught my arms, stopping them from moving and he pulled me closer to his body. “Sweetheart, take a deep breath and let it go.”I listened, following every instruction and he added. “Listen to me. Nothing is going to happen to them.”"You don't understand, Liam, she—"He chuckled and I frowned even harder. “Weren't you the one who wanted her to stay in the house? I thought you liked the idea of her being around.”I swallowed, realizing he was right. He took my hands in his and rubbed gently as he spoke. “My mother isn't s

    Nina’s POV Liam’s eyes settled and I waited for his excuse but he didn't say anything. Instead he glanced at Dr. Vance and said gently. "Give us a moment alone."Dr. Vance hurried out the room, and shut the door behind him. “Nina. I was only trying to protect you,” Liam began but I laughed. "Protect me?" I spat, tears finally spilling down my cheeks. "By hiding a brain injury? The doctor said you need surgery!"Liam swallowed hard, looking down at his trembling hands on the blanket. "The surgery has risks, Nina...""Every surgery has risks!" I cried. “It's not magic where you get on the table and turn back nice.”"It is a frontal lobe operation, sweetheart," Liam explained softly, his voice cracking with raw, desperate fear as he reached up to gently touch my fingers. "The doctor told me there is a ten percent chance I will wake up with memory loss. I could wake up and not know who you are. I could forget our children. And if the pressure stays, it changes my brain... I could beco

  • Unintended Bride    Ninety Nine

    Nina’s POV The room fell dead silent and Dr. Vance cleared his throat. His face turned pale and he clutched tightly to the medical file, pushing it against his chest. "I... erhm,” he began, sounding hesitant as he glanced nervously between Liam and I. Then he recovered and straightened. “The bad news is Mr. Liam's bad sleeping habits. If he doesn't stop staying awake for days without a wink of sleep then he's setting himself up for premeditated concussion and much worse.”I exhaled, not realizing I had been holding my breath for that long and the knot in my stomach loosened. “Is that all?” I asked, looking back and forth between him and Liam's tired face. “Don't worry, Doctor. As long as I'm here I'll make sure he gets enough rest and he won't give any problems at all.”The doctor nodded and gave a smile that didn't meet his eyes. “That would be best, Mrs. Hampton.”I smiled back but it was more nervous than normal and I couldn't push back the weird feeling that had crept up in me.

    Chapter 97Liam’s POVI heard the machine beep rapidly and her eyes met mine. Slowly, I rose to a seated position and I felt pressure in my chest causing me to wince. She wasn't supposed to be here. Gideon!!!“What are you doing here?” I said gently. She crossed her arms and boy did she look and as hell. “Is that how you greet your wife?” Hss didn't stop and came closer to me. “I see. You had planned to make me a grieving widow at my age. How do I pay you back?”Fear and guilt hit me. I tried to speak but lost my voice and I prayed the universe would send help to me before she sent me to the land of the spirits. “Won't you say something?” She asked and I gulped. “I…” I didn't get the chance to finish the non-existent words in my mouth before the door opened and Gideon walked in. His eyes met mine and I signaled him with them to save me. He took one look at Nina's face and didn't even move. Instead, he gulped and she started talking. “So…” she said, pointing to the both of us. “Y

    Nina’s POV Gideon opened his mouth, then closed it. He rubbed the back of his neck. "He's not in Milan. He's... he's not answering because he's not well. The headaches, the nosebleeds, he pushed too hard and now he's in the hospital. He doesn't want you to know because he thinks it will scare you.""Hospital? Which one?" I asked in a cold tone. "New York General. He's been there since he fainted. He asked me not to tell you."My face went white. "Why?" "He's afraid you'll be scared. He's stubborn, you know that. He thinks if he doesn't talk, you won't come here and get worried." I only nodded, trying to think through everything in my head. "I need to see him.""No." Gideon's tone was clear. "He won't want that. He left strict instructions."I moved around the desk before he could say anything else. I had my hand on the door handle when his voice raised. “Mrs. Nina, please. You can’t just walk out there. He’s in no condition to receive visitors. Let me call the doctor and see if

    Nina's POV Liam’s grip on my upper arms was unyielding as my small world spiraled out of control because of how close we were standing."Nina?" he breathed deeply.
