Chapter 1

_Danica’s POV_The music vibrated through the floorboards of the hotel and I tried my best to remain calm. I wasn't sure if I wanted to be here. “Come on, Dani! Loosen up!” Freya shrieked over the dining, her hand clamped around my wrist as she pulled me further into the hotel. Apparently, our class president was having a party and Freya being extra social was definitely on the invite list and felt the need to bring me along. It felt more like an impending headache.“I don't know, Freya. It's a lot harder than you think,” I clutch my purse tighter, the velvet slipping against my sweaty palms. I wasn't used to attending parties or having fun like this, not to mention how intimidating the interior of this hotel was. It reeked of money, the kind of money I didn't have. It was overwhelming to say the least and I was afraid to make a mistake. A stream of excited classmates walked past us, heading for the main hall. “Aren't you coming, Freya?” One of the girls asked, totally ignoring my

Chapter 2

_Danica’s POV_I rolled over, my eyes aching and my head spinning. Weak sunlight filtered through the heavy curtains making it difficult to keep my eyes shut. I blinked, my eyelids feeling gritty and found myself lying in this ridiculously soft bed.“How did I get here?” I muttered and groaned as I tried to recollect. Freya had made me drink a whole lot yesterday to ease the tension and told me she had booked a room for us. “ Freya?” I called out, my voice raspy and just as I made an attempt to sit up, I realized that I was naked. I pushed myself up, my head throbbing in protest. The bed was enormous and didn't look like a suite Freya would lodge. It looked too VIP.“I'm not the type to sleep naked,” I mumbled as I sat at the edge of the bed, taking the sheets off. My back felt sore but I pushed myself to stand up anyway. I froze when I felt something wet between my legs, my breathing became heavy as everything began to dawn on me. My gaze swept around the room and my eyes landed on

Chapter 3

_Danica’s POV_The hospital waiting room always hummed with a quiet, unsettling buzz and today was nothing special. I hoped that I wouldn't see anyone I knew or that knew me here. It has already been two days since the doctor confirmed that I was pregnant, I could barely sleep or eat without worrying. I was so afraid of my family catching on.I clutched my purse strap so tight my knuckles went white. I quickly got to my feet and followed the nurse when my name was called.“The doctor is already there waiting,” the nurse opened the door for me. I strode inside, my breathing unsteady as I wondered how I would face the doctor.“Good to see you again,” a somewhat familiar voice came. “You're here?” I was surprised. It was the doctor I had met two days ago who had informed me of my pregnancy. “Yes. When I heard you were here again, I decided to take your case personally. I noticed even last time that you were scared to open up so I thought it would be best for me, someone who has handl

Chapter 4

_Danica’s POV_“I don't want to have anything to do with this woman or her child!”I walked into the Laurent mansion in a blank state, my heart burdened with the crushing weight of Eden's rejection. I had been approached by the secretary of the Cross family matriarch who informed me that he knew who my child's father was. Eden’s grandma was welcoming and wanted me to keep her grandchild but Eden, who turned out to be the stranger I had slept with that night, wanted nothing to do with me.I knew it would turn out this way, after all, who'd want a random woman just because of a flimsy one-night stand? He most likely saw me as a gold digger or a liar, maybe both. I didn't know him enough or have any bonds with him to be hurt by his words but somehow it did. I had cried my eyes out in the taxi and now, I still hadn't gotten over it.I pushed open the front door and hoped that no one would see me in this state but my stepmother's uncanny ability to sniff out misfortune like a bloodhound ap
