Amelia forgot absolutely everything around her as she kissed Alexander. His tongue sought hers full of desire and eagerness. It happened slow and deep, between soft muffled moans as their tongues intertwined urgent and hot, as it should be.She had kissed other men before, but none of them had kissed her the way he had. With that feeling of belonging, the same feeling that Amelia wanted with all her might to deny and run away from. " Is everything alright?" Alexander's hoarse whisper sounded and Amelia opened her eyes.She met his blue gaze, feeling his fingers caress her cheek."Why do you ask?" she questioned."You're shaking, Amy. " He pondered and only at that moment did she realize it was true, she was trembling in his lap.She stared at him, sealing their lips once more. "It's okay, I swear. " She replied, brushing the tip of her nose against his. "I just didn't mean to, you know?" Intended what?" Alex asked, curious." To like you. " Amy confessed.Alexander couldn't hide hi

Amelia is startled by the knock on the car window, realizing it was Benjamin. He opens the car door and helps her out. As soon as he holds her hand, Amelia loses the strength of her legs and he supports her, holding her on his lap and putting her back on a bench in front of the beach. He hugs her and Amelia cries. She cries as she could not all those years. She cries as she remembers everything, all the times Barth hit her, broke her. How much he broke her soul and she was still trying to put all the pieces back together.Only now she was pregnant with his child. Pregnant with that monster's child.Some time passed before she stopped crying. Benjamin continued to hug her protectively."Amy, tell me everything. " He asked patiently, but she could see the hatred in his blue eyes.Amelia pondered for a few minutes before finally speaking. She was afraid of what Benjamin might do, and worse, what her family would do if they knew everything."You know the whole story. " She replied embarr

When Amelia finished telling everything, a sepulchral silence took over the office for a few long minutes until someone finally spoke."Do you want to continue this pregnancy, Miss Jones?" The doctor finally asked."I really don't know." Amelia answered sincerely, she was still very confused by everything that was happening."Right. " The doctor agreed. " Here's what we'll do. We will start your prenatal care. You still have some time to think and in the meantime, we will take care of your health and the health of the fetus. Amelia immediately looked at Benjamin, who nodded in agreement. "I will ask you to go to the screen and change your clothes." The doctor said, indicating the place. "We are going to do a first ultrasound. " She informed, smiling softly. "Just to see the fetus and get an average number of weeks." I know how many weeks I am, doctor. " Amelia replied. " I remember the day it happened." I imagine you do. But it's a standard examination. " The doctor explained. "Bu

Quiet inside the office, Alexander thought about everything Amelia had said to him. He could not come to terms with it. He couldn't really believe that Amelia didn't love him. Not after all they had been through in those weeks. There had to be some explanation. Something had happened in those two days she had been away.Looking out the window, the weather was beginning to change as Alex tried to process everything that had happened. He knew it was a lie, the way Amelia kissed him that night, it wasn't a fake kiss. She had feelings for him. But something happened to make Amelia give up on the two of them, he just didn't know what.He stood for a while looking at the shards of glass from the glass he had thrown against the wall.She said she had a family problem and knew that Amelia's only close relative there was her older brother, Benjamin. He also knew that Benjamin and Ethan had some sort of relationship beyond friendship. Immediately, Alex grabbed his cell phone from the table and

Amelia felt chilled. Her blood pressure dropped slightly as she leaned on the arch of the kitchen door and looked at Helena and the empty box of pregnancy vitamins on the counter."I... " Amelia paused and then Helena walked over to her, taking her hand and guiding her to one of the stools to sit down."Amelia, it's okay." Helena tried to reassure her. "You can tell me if you want. But I need to know if you're taking care of yourself." Helena, I... " Amelia simply couldn't speak."Amy, I've been noticing your changes for a few weeks now. " Helena said, handing her a cup of tea. "Constant nausea, you didn't want to talk about the appointment with my doctor, your hair is shiny and silky and you've been eating too much salt." She commented as she smiled. " I know when a woman is pregnant. I have two children, have you forgotten?Amelia felt increasingly tense, but as Helena smiled complacently, Amelia's eyes welled with tears as Helena approached, realizing immediately that something wa
