All Chapters of Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Juss's Pov It was daylight when I woke up. The sun streamed down into my room in beautiful rays reflecting off my white vanity table. Wait, my white vanity table? I blinked and stared at it. As far I could remember, my vanity table was a dull faded blue with chips and signs of use along the edges. But this table looked.....brand new. Maybe I was imagining things. I felt so tired and worn out, like I had been unconscious for so long. I wondered how long I had slept for. The last thing I remembered was Eggust holding me when I felt like I was blacking out at the pharmacy. Speaking of Eggust, was he really here? It felt like I had woken up from a very long dream. I admired the sunlight for a while longer before my eyes skipped to the walls that were now painted a soft pink shade . Pink! What was going on? I sat up quickly and regretted it immediately. My head swam and tears rushed to my eyes as I battled the overwhelming urge to puke. I would probably have, if my stomach ha

Hera’s Pov After much persuasion, I was able to convince my boss to give me a few days off from work, which he grumpily agreed to. It was so freeing being away from the bar for a while. Accommodation would not be a problem since I already informed my grand aunt there that I'll be staying with her and she was happy to have me. I finally got to the train station after much deliberation. Isla had tried to talk me out of it, “I don’t think you should go after him, I’m certain if we continue to threaten Juss she will fold and leave him eventually. When that happens, he'll come back to us.” Those were her words. However, I knew better than to wait until something I want finds its way to my hands. I’d never been the one to sit idle in hope that things would fall in place, rather I work towards it. So against Isla’s judgment, I embarked on my journey to Manchester. It had been a long ride because of traffic, even though I had woken up early to beat it.

Eggust POV I adjusted the duvet for the tenth time again, peering at her face to make sure she was still breathing. I couldn't understand exactly why I was scared, but I was. I had the fear that something might have gotten terribly wrong. She had been sleeping for way too long for me to be comfortable with. Seeing her chest heave up and down, telling me that she was still breathing, was a relief to me. My movements made her stir in her sleep as she turned her head the other way and soon enough, I heard her snoring softly. Juss had fallen asleep just as we were watching TV. While she slept, I decided to make us brunch, as it was the first time we would be eating today. I took a step back and just stood there watching her. She was so fucking beautiful. I found myself being more relaxed now, even though she still wasn't awake. She looked almost angelic and the little noises she made in her sleep went straight to my groin. I couldn't help but laugh at the thought. It was

Hera's POV The streets were dark and empty despite the pale moonlight that reflected from above. Stars littered the blanket of dusk, twinkling like tiny stones. In many ways, it was a beautiful night, a night to enjoy, but to enjoy it, one had to have the mind for it. I sighed. It wasn't from exhaustion, although it may as well be that. This past week had been every kind of hell imaginable. Hours and hours of tracing dots, trying to make connections, and forcing cups of coffee down my throat so I could stay awake for just a little longer. No, this was more than mere tiredness. It felt deeper than that, more conceptual, as if my fatigue had leached through my bones until it could wrap around my very soul. My mind raced with thoughts on how to find Juss. At least all my efforts hadn't been completely in vain. Now I knew what street she lived in, but with nothing more than that to narrow down my options, I was basically aiming blind. The thought of having to work through each

Hera’s Pov I could still taste the bile that rose in my throat when I saw them together. He looked so happy, so cheerful. It was as if the darkness that had once consumed him somehow dissipated into thin air. As if all his sadness, his pain had been sucked into a void permanently. One thing that drew me to Eggust was the gloominess surrounding him at that time. I was happy I had found someone who was in the same spectrum of oblivion. as I was and together we could both find the rainbow. But he was happy with her, he smiled, laughed even. Something he had never done with me or any of the other girls. Who did Juss think she was to appear out of nowhere and steal him away? What was so captivating about her? I had red hair too! As young as him. I was even prettier and I knew how to pleasure Eggust better than she or any of the other girls, so what was the problem? It didn’t matter anyway, I resolved to get Eggust's attention back. All I needed to do was to remove her from
