Testing Him
-ANASTASIA-“How is married life with my brother treating you, Tasha?” Natalie asked while feeding Helena sitting on the counter.I stirred the sauce and thought about my answer. How do I tell her that this marriage was not my choice yet I am starting to like it? How do I tell her that I am posing as a mother to a stranger’s child who I can’t think of being separated with?How do I tell her that I might have started to have feelings for a man I used to despise? “Uhh... good better than I expected.” I said not looking at her.“He is isn’t troubling you right?” I shook my head in denial making her smile. “I never thought I would see Nathan married.”I looked at her surprised. What about Jeanette? Will he not marry the mother of his child? “Why so?”“With all that happened with his past he had changed or rather he became his old self again so se

Comeback Time
-ANASTASIA-I woke up to my alarm blaring into my ears... just five more minutes... I snuggled closer to my pillow when the heady scent filled my nostrils. When did my pillow start smelling like Nathan? I opened my eyes to see hair. Eh?Moving my hands to feel around the hard body around me I gasped. Shit! I leant back and saw him sleeping peacefully with his head in between my hair and neck until I leant back, a small groan left his lips.My legs were entangled in his and I pulled hard until I almost kicked him out of the bed and my leg was free again. “Bloody hell.” He cursed rubbing his eyes and looking at me stretching. “What are you doing?”I shook my head and scampered out of the bed. “Good morning. I have to go to the office, I will be back in two hours to pick Helena.” I said without realizing that he already knew the schedule. Shaking my head I went out of his room and into my washroom to fresh

She is Mine
-ANASTASIA-There are two ways this can go. Either Adam tells me all that happened which will be good or he can get angry which will not be good. I don’t want anything to interfere with his upcoming wedding but I should tell him what happened in the office or else he will never forgive me when he finds out.Today is their last day in New York, Adam is going to take Natalie with him to Chicago to meet our parents and I know they will be impressed. I knocked on his door and waited for him to open. “Hey. What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be at work?” He asked as soon as he saw me.“Is Natalie here?” He shook his head. “Great… I have something to tell you. Let me in.”He opened the door wider and I went inside and took a seat on his bed.  “What is it Ana? You are worrying me.”Not as much worried as I am. “Adam... uh you remember Kelly?” I asked co

Shopping with the Boss
-ANASTASIA-“Louis will be with you in another few minutes until then this is Anastasia Dominic signing off. Wish you a bright day and many adventures.” Rachel gave me a thumbs up and the recording stopped. I got down from the chair and removed my microphone from my shoulder.“When are we having the briefing today?” I asked her on the way to my desk.She went through her note pad and then looked at me. “Mrs. V decided to have it after 11 since Kelly has a spa appointed before.” She said with spite in her voice. There were very few people who liked Kelly in this office.“Yeah right... spa. Fine I will be there.” She nodded and went away when I took my seat and started editing a recorded interview. “Hey Cain?”He turned from his seat. “Yup?”“Are you seeing anyone at the moment?” it has been days since we talked, he had to leave town for some s

Gift for You
-ANASTASIA-Unzipping the cloth bag I took out the first dress, it is a light blue lace one shoulder dress with ruffles on the shoulder. Nice dress. I wore it and zipped the side of the dress, it was a little loose in the front but nothing a little stitching won’t fix.I walked out of the dressing room and stood in front of Nathan who was busy talking in his meeting. “Nathan?” I whispered trying to gain his attention. He looked up and gave me a thumbs up and went back to the meeting.The same process continued for all the five dresses I tried, to be honest it is getting on my nerves. I told him I didn’t want to do this, he insisted but now he is the one who doesn’t have the time. Sighing I went back inside and opened up another dress. Satin V-necked gown featuring thin spaghetti straps and a natural waist. It reached a smidge above my knees.It is not my favorite but I am sure Mr. Husband will give his thumbs

Engagement Party
-ANASTASIA-The party was already in a buzz by the time we had arrived and there were a few reporters and paparazzi for the event, from our side I think it is Rachel since Cain and myself will be in the party. I gave Helena to my parents and went with Nathan to talk to Adam and Natalie.“Hey guys. Congratulations.” I said passing them each their gifts. Natalie hugged me followed by Nathan.Nathan just wished in his usual stoic way and didn’t hug anyone. “Hey best man.” A voice said slapping on Nathan’s shoulder and I saw Marco smirking at Nathan. He knew that his best friend didn’t particularly enjoy this job. He glanced at me and smiled. “Wow. You look gorgeous Anastasia. Care to dance?”I looked around and saw a few couples on the floor swaying to the music even Natalie and Adam had joined them. I watched Nathan whisper something to Marco who had his smirk on his face while looking a

His Past
-NATHAN-Standing up I patted the hood of the car. “Good save James.” He nodded from inside, I walked into the car and shut the door once I sat down. “It would not hurt if you tell me that you have given Helena to your parents for the night, plonker.”No reply.Pretty much nothing happened in the there, then why is my wife frowning at me and giving me silent treatment? Sighing I reached for her hand but she snatched it back. “Give me a chance to explain.”I saw her eyes move to the front mirror where you could see James concentrated on the road but he shouldn’t be hearing this. I leaned over and closed the shutter of the space so that he could no longer hear us when Anastasia, herself leaned over and opened it. “Sorry for that James.”James looked at me through the mirror, I shrugged. “Monroe?” I closed the shutter again only for it be opened by Anastasia.&ld

Bachelorette Party
-ANASTASIA-“You look better than when you had Helena’s milk on your clothes before.” Nathan said smirking when I came down the stairs, I pushed my hair to the side and looked at my dress. It was a lovely lavender sleeveless dress that had princess-seamed bodice and a plunging V-neckline. The dress stopped an inch before my knees, it was one of the ones he bought for e but didn’t see me wearing it.“I am wondering if it is a compliment.” I wondered out loud fixing Nathan’s collar that was slightly upturned.He chuckled. “I meant you clean up nice. You look beautiful.” Blushing I thanked him and rode Helena’s stroller out of the house.“Is Maria ever coming back?” I didn’t have a problem looking after Helena or the house but I missed her and her advice. Also it was always better to have a third person to look after Helena especially at parties and stuff.H

Wedding Bells
-ANASTASIA-The entire dressing room for the bride was filled with people trying to get to the bride and some of them still getting ready. It is starting to get on my nerves, I had suggested to Natalie that we kick them out but she said it was fine as long as everyone is happy and excited.I don’t know if my anger and intolerance is from yesterday night or my hangover, probably the almost steamy night. And your guess is right, things are very awkward. Today morning when I went to get Helena for a bath he was also there which happens very rarely anyway he came forward to kiss me but I turned my head and he got my cheek.I tried to start a conversation but Nathan said, “Its fine. Will see in the wedding.” No it is not fine… we almost had sex, that would be breaching what we had decided on when all of this happened. It was not on his contract but it was there in bold letters in the contract that I had made for myself.
