Chapter 20: Nerve-wracking Knight’s P.O.V: I made my bed; went over to the kitchen to make myself some coffee; waited patiently for the coffee to get done; drank the entire cup and then headed back to the bed; twisted and turned restlessly and then got up to make the bed again. By now I’d already drank five cups of coffee and my bladder was about to burst but I couldn’t seem to snap myself out of this crazy ritual that I had going on since this morning. I was more than a little nervous and I didn’t know what to do about it. Yeah, sure night! You’re a perfect example of a nice guy. First screw a girl without knowing her marital status. Then see yourself plastered all over the newspaper in a shameful position. Then go check the CCTV footage and find some innocent girl moving around backstage doing her business and instantly assume that she’s the culprit. And then do the unthinkable and fool her at a bar and have revenge

Chapter 22: Maybe… Elena’s P.O.V “Here,” Landon held out a steaming cup in front of my face. “What is it?” I took the cup from him and took a whiff of the scents inside the cup. “Hot chocolate?” Landon took his seat beside me as we waited to board our plane and spread his hand at the back of my chair. “I got it because it’s one of your favorites.” He said. “I’m not sure if your pregnancy has affected that.” “No, it hasn’t.” I shook my head and took a small sip, careful not to burn myself. “I can’t have red meats though, or fish. Eggs and chicken seem to be the best option.” “I’m glad you’re still non-vegetarian,” Landon smiled. “I’ve heard of women turning vegetarian or completely vegan when they get pregnant and vice-versa.” “Oh! You’re right!” I exclaimed. “I’ve heard Lara say something similar a while back. She asked if I’d undergone any changes in diet recently.” “See. I’ve been stu

Chapter 24: Meet the Parents Elena’s P.O.V It’s only been three years since I left home but when I saw the familiar gates of the mansion approaching from a distance, I was immediately swarmed with memories of my childhood days. And when Landon used a remote to punch in the security code, the gates parted for us and I saw a glimpse of my home after a long time, I felt all my breath rush out of me. It was just as I’d remembered it, breathtakingly beautiful. The house had belonged to my grandparents on my father’s side, not his own since my father was adopted, but dad did say they were the only family he knew. The mansion however, was made mostly of floor to ceiling glass walls, which is where it got the name glass mansion from. Mom had her own small property a good twenty minutes ride from here, she still has but she prefers the glass manor. My uncle Christian also stops by often, with his wife and daughter. It’s what I’ve grow

Chapter 26: Rash Decisions Elena’s P.O.V The house was everything I always wanted. The huge living room was the first sight that greeted me as soon as I entered the door. The kitchen was to the left with an area for a dining table where a table for eight could easily fit in. There were three guest rooms on the ground floor with a common bathroom and four bedrooms on the first floor, each with their separate bathrooms. The windows were huge and the ceilings tall and the house was painted an array of pastels with each room being a different theme. The master bedroom was a beautiful green. But one thing I noticed immediately was that the entire house was devoid of any furniture. After I had inspected every room, been to every corner of the house, I turned to call for Landon but found him leaning against the doorjamb of the master bedroom. When he saw me looking at him, he straightened and came to stand in front of me. Th

Chapter 28: Coming HorrorsElena’s P.O.V“I…I’m sorry…for the other day.” Knight apologized. He had his hands on his lap and his face drawn in harsh lines. He had bags under his eyes, indicating that he hadn’t been sleeping well.“Why did you do it?” I tilted my head to the side, studying him. I didn’t know him well enough to understand if he would lie to my face, but I hoped he would give me an honest reply.“Couldn’t we have spoken somewhere privately?” He asked finally, loosening his tie as he looked around at all the people inside the restaurant. I had purposely chosen a public setting because I was pregnant and my hormones were everywhere. I’m pretty sure anyone to persuade me to buy a grenade right now and I wouldn’t even blink. And I needed to keep my head straight. Plus, two of my father’s guards were sitting on a tab
