All Chapters of WRONGFULLY HIS: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

ATHENA'S POV The cold, clinical scent of antiseptic is all that I can smell as usual in the very sterile hospital. The overhead fluorescent lights above me hums very dully but it does little to soothe my nerves as I prepare for what should be another routine procedure.I adjust my gloves, smoothing them down against my wrist as I glance a little bit at the monitor beside me. The system is running perfectly fine—at least, that’s what I believe; I'll check it again later to be sure.“Embryologist Foster, are you ready?” the nurse asks, sounding professional as she always did.I nod, shifting my focus of my eyes to the vial in front of me. This part of my job is actually very easy; all I have to do is to select the prepared sperm sample, confirm the donor file, and make sure that everything is done without any errors of any kind at all. It’s a controlled process, I mean it's something I do without any emotion, and yet it always feels strangely intimate."Let’s proceed," I murmur, ke

ATHENA'S POV Xander Knight towers over me, looking at me with his piercing gaze, clenching his jaw so tightly that I can see the muscles twitching.

ATHENA'S POV“You can glare at me all you want,” Xander says while he fastens the final button of his tuxedo. “You’re still coming.”I fold my arms, planting my feet firmly on the expensively tiled floor. “You forced me to move into your house. Now you’re parading me around like a trophy? Not happening.”His eyes move toward me, “You’re carrying my child, Athena. You’re already part of my world, whether you like it or not.”I scoff. “Your world of entitled billionaires and gold-digging socialites?
