Three months they dragged it, couldn’t pin a thing on him, so they buried him in paperwork instead.

Bella paced the room, her hands resting on her swollen belly. Any day now. The sound of a car pulling up snapped her attention to the door. He burst out of the car, lunging for her, and pulled her into a kiss, breathing her in like he’d been starving for air. Carol and Ben trailed behind as they finally stepped inside.

He kissed her belly. “How are you holding up?”

“Can’t sleep, can’t eat, and I’m a walking disaster. Sure, you still want to stick around?”

They all laughed, but Bella winced, a sharp pain cutting through her. She brushed it off. Carol didn’t miss it.

“Bella, was that a contraction?”

She started to talk, but another pain hit, sharper this time, and she cried out. The water broke, and for a second, everyone froze. Then chaos erupted. “Hospital, now!”

He climbed into the back seat with her, her grip on his hand like a vise as she cursed up a storm.

At the hospital, he paced

    Bella placed a hand on Lucas’s cheek, her touch soft. “I’ll take her,” scooping baby Amelia from his arms. “Thanks.”Lucas grinned. “She’s got your look. Going to be trouble, just like her mom.”They both chuckled, but the moment was interrupted as Ray stepped in. He couldn’t help it, his mind wandered to whether Bella still carried a torch for Lucas. They acted like they’d never split. Chill, Ray told himself. You’re just being insecure.Lucas stood, brushed a quick kiss on Bella’s cheek, and gave Ray a nod before heading out.Ray cradled his daughter, pressing a kiss on her tiny face. “Bella, straight up, do you still love him?”Bella blinked. “Who? Lucas?”“Yeah, Lucas. You’ve said it before, but I need to hear it again. Is this just ‘old pals’ or something more?”Ray walked into the nursery, laid Amelia down, and glanced at his son, Andy, asleep in his crib. He turned back to Bella. “Sorry. I’m an idiot. It’s just…jealousy, I guess.”Bella shook her head. “Don’t be. You know how I

    Julia finally stepped into the room, her legs unsteady, her hands trembling as she took in the sight of him surrounded by machines. He still looked cute, she thought, despite everything. She gripped his hand tightly. “You told me to wait for you,” she whispered, her voice breaking. “I waited. I’m here.” She kissed his hand and pressed it against her cheek before resting her head on his arm, exhaustion pulling her into sleep.Someone shook her awake. “Julia, go home. I’ll stay tonight. I’ll call if anything changes,” he said, handing her his phone. She quickly added her number.“I’ll just shower, change, and come back,” she insisted.“No, get some rest. Come in the morning,” he replied firmly.“Fine,” she sighed, leaning in to kiss Tobias’s cheek. “Goodnight.”Julia dialed Bella’s number. “Where are you?”“Home. I’ve got the kids; sorry I couldn’t stick around longer.”“It’s fine. I’m heading home to change, then I’ll swing by. That cool?”“Yeah, come over. We’ll figure this out.”Juli

  • my mafia brother-in-law, stole my heart   Dinner can wait

    Julia strutted in, her crimson dress practically daring anyone to look away, paired with those black heels that meant business. Tobias couldn’t help but stare as the waiter led her to the table. He pulled out her chair, leaning in close. “You look so beautiful,” he murmured, low enough for only her to hear.She smiled. “Thank you, Tobias.”He ordered drinks, his gaze never left her. She sipped hers slowly, her eyes locked on him like she was plotting something. Under the table, she took his hand and guided it up her thigh. He exhaled sharply; his eyes fluttering shut for a second.“Fucking hell, Julia,” he muttered, his voice rough. “You trying to kill me?”She laughed, finishing her drink. “Dinner can wait.”He was on his feet instantly, grabbing her hand and pulling her behind him. In the hotel lobby, waiting for the elevator, he kissed her like they were the only two people in the world. The elevator doors opened, and he snapped, “Take the next one,” before yanking her inside. He l

    Everyone was seated around the table. Bella scanned the room, taking them all in.“We’re still waiting on a few more,” “Connor, Han, Julia, my dad, Ray’s parents, Oliver, Max.”The doorbell chimed. Lucas and Damon stepped in.Damon’s gaze landed on her, and he stopped dead. Their eyes locked. She saw something dark lurking behind them, something unsettling. She gave him a small, knowing smile. “Congratulate me, Damon.”He broke the stare, forcing a grin. “Congratulations.” Then he moved to sit down, his posture stiff.Lucas brushed a kiss on her cheek before taking his seat. Tobias came next. His eyes fixated on Julia.She waited, her nerves tightening. He’ll come. He must.The doorbell rang again. Dylan walked in, and the room went quiet.“Welcome,” she said coolly. He nodded silently and found a seat.Bella walked to the head of the table, her presence commanding. “Thanks for coming. Before dinner, I’ve got something to say. Just hear me out before you start judging.”Damon downed h

    His parents stepped in, and the doctor shot them a sideways glance."Ms. Bella, let’s see what’s going on here," he said, spreading the jelly on her belly. He peered at the screen and froze."What? You’re freaking me out, doc. What’s wrong? Did you forget how to doctor or something?" Bella snapped.He hit a button, and the sound of a heartbeat filled the room—but it was off, strange.Carol clapped a hand over her mouth."Tell me, Carol, what is it?""Twins. You’re having twins.""What?" Bella stared at the doctor. He nodded."The first one is a boy," he said. Carol and Ben erupted in cheers. "And the second one’s a girl." They cheered again, louder this time.Bella burst into tears, hormones, shock, and joy all tangled together.She kept glancing at her phone, willing it to ring—like some lovesick teenager waiting for her crush to call.Finally, it buzzed. “Bella, you’re killing me here. Spill it.”“You ready for this?” She paused, hearing him take a sharp breath. “A boy… and a girl.”
