N*****x and Guilt

Alina’s POVI walked beside Edrick, our fingers laced together as we headed back to the villa. Netflix and chill.I still couldn’t believe I had said that to him. Out loud. With my full chest.Where had my shame gone?I sneaked a glance at him. The way his hand held mine so securely… like I was something precious. My chest warmed. I shouldn’t have liked it, but I did. God, I did. I loved everything about it.“I love it when you smile that bright.” Edrick said, intensifying the butterflies. God. I blushed harder.But then that tiny, annoying voice slipped into my head.This is fake. You’re not his wife. You’re doing something terrible.I shut it out. Just for tonight, I wanted to breathe. Just tonight, I wanted to pretend this life was mine.We reached the villa doors, and suddenly my phone started ringing. My mother.My stomach dropped. All the sadness and fear I thought I had buried rushed back at once. I froze, staring at her name on the screen. I didn’t even want to hear her

Prenatals

Alina’s POV“Lila, do you need anything?” Edrick finally said. She held back her tears before facing.“Uhm, I was going to ask if you were available for horseback riding today.” She said.“Maybe tomorrow. Aria and I would join you.” Edrick said. She gave a bitter smile, nodded, then walked out slamming the door so hard it shook.I was still staring at the exit when Edrick’s lips brushed the side of my neck, warm and slow, like he was trying to coax my mind back into the room.“Aria,” he murmured against my skin. “You’re drifting.”My body shivered, but my heart… my heart slammed against my ribs in panic.Guilt. Thick. Suffocating. Burning behind my eyes.I forced a smile and tilted my head slightly, giving him access, pretending I wasn’t spiraling.“I’m here,” I whispered breathlessly. “Just… tired.”He kissed upward. My jaw, cheek, then hovered over my lips, eyes searching mine like he could sense the storm inside me.“You sure?” he asked softly.No.I wasn’t sure of anything any

The Panic I Couldn’t Hide

Alina’s POV“Fuck,” I muttered under my breath.The moment the Dr Nala stepped into the villa, my whole body went cold. I tried to smile, to act normal, to pretend my heart wasn’t about to explode. But my palms were slick with sweat, and even the air felt too thick to breathe.“Good evening,” she said warmly.I forced a polite, “Good evening,” hoping my voice didn’t crack.Edrick shook her hands. “I'm sorry for the delay Mr Vale.” She said. “No worries at all,” Edrick replied. “You made it, that's what matters.”She made it.And I was doomed.We walked to the guest room Edrick had prepared for the check-up. My legs felt like lead. I sank onto the edge of the bed as the doctor unpacked her tools.“Let’s start with the basics,” she said gently. “Blood pressure check.”I extended my arm, willing it not to shake.She strapped on the cuff.The machine hummed.Edrick stood beside me, one hand resting lightly on my back. His touch was supposed to comfort me, but it only made the guilt thr

Thirteen Days Without Her

Edrick’s POV“What is going on with you?”The words slipped out before I could stop myself. She had curled up on the bed, facing the window, pretending to be fascinated by absolutely nothing.She didn’t look at me. She hadn’t, not properly, since the doctor had left.“Did I… do something?” I asked, softer this time.She shook her head. “No. The whole doctor appointment was just… overwhelming. I just need to rest, okay?”I swallowed my disappointment and nodded.“Alright. Rest. If you need anything, call me.”She didn’t answer.The next day, she was the same. Quiet. Distant. Floating around me like a ghost wearing her face.On the third day, nothing had changed.By the fifth, I was losing my mind.She avoided eye contact. Avoided conversations. Avoided touch. Avoided me.And yet, Every time I caught her staring when she thought I wasn’t looking, her eyes were full of heat, longing, and everything she refused to say.It was torture.I hated that I wanted her so damn much. I hate

The Gid Damned Sketch

Alina’s POVI saw him through the glass door before he even stepped inside.Edrick.sweatpants hanging low on his hips, shirt clinging to his chest, hair a little messy from the salty morning breeze. God. Why did he have to look like that? Why did he have to exist in a form specifically designed to torture me?I was sitting on the kitchen counter, mid‑bite of a croissant I wasn’t even hungry for, my mouth suspended open like an idiot. My heart reacted before my head could catch up. It squeezed, painfully like it recognized something it had been starving for.I had missed him. Missed him so badly it scared me.But avoiding him had been the only way I knew to stop things from getting completely out of hand. I had needed the distance, desperately… and yet, every second of it had felt like punishment.He pushed the door open and walked in fully, strides confident, shoulders broad and warm. My eyes dipped to the cut of his biceps, the flex of muscle beneath cotton. A single flash of memo

The Storm Inside and Out

Edrick’s POVI stood there, watching her disappear up the staircase with her sketchpad clutched to her chest like a shield, and I felt something break inside me.Frustration.Hurt.Want.All tangled in a knot so tight it made breathing painful.Avoiding me for nearly two weeks was already driving me insane. But running away right after I told her I liked her? That was torture. Because I knew she felt it too. I saw it in the way she kissed me back like she was starving. I felt it in the way she trembled when I touched her.So why the hell was she fighting it so hard?I dragged a hand through my hair, muttering a curse, and headed for the bathroom. I stripped, stepped under the cold shower, and let the icy water slam into my skin. Maybe it would cool the heat she left behind on my mouth, on my hands… everywhere.It didn’t.Not even close.When I stepped out, I couldn’t stay in the bedroom. I needed space. Needed to stop thinking about how badly I wanted her, emotionally, physically, all

Stormy me

Alina’s pov.I lay in bed and stared at the drawing I made of Edrick. I held the pad above my head and looked at every line, every shadow, every detail I had poured into it. I wished I could tear the page out, rip it into pieces, burn it, anything. Because he was never meant to see it. It was something private. Something secret. Something that belonged to the version of me that could not stop thinking about him even when I desperately wanted to.My throat tightened and I placed the sketchpad on my stomach. I felt miserable. Completely miserable. I hated that he saw it. I hated how exposed it made me feel. And I hated the fire that ran through my body the moment he kissed me in the kitchen. That kiss was still on my lips. I could still feel the way he held me. The way he breathed against my skin. The way his lips felt like he had been starving and I was the only thing that could satisfy him.I hated it.I hated everything about how much I wanted him.My eyes stung as the emotions built

Held

Alina’s pov.“Aria…”My whole body jerked at the sound of my name. For a second I could not breathe. Then a slow warmth spread through my chest, smoothing the panic that had been clawing at me.Edrick.I knew his voice anywhere.A soft beam of light cut through the darkness as he lifted his phone and turned the flashlight on. I blinked, trying to adjust my eyes as he moved closer. He looked so tall in the small space of the closet. Warm. Solid. Safe.The moment his eyes found mine, something inside me broke. The fear I had been holding onto finally snapped.He stared at me like he could not believe what he was seeing. His brows pushed together, his jaw clenched, and I could see worry sharp in his expression.I must have looked awful.I felt awful.My chest rose and fell too fast. My breaths were quick and shaky. My eyes were full of tears that refused to fall or stop. My whole body was trembling as if the storm outside had moved inside me.“Aria,” he said again, softer this time. His

The Call

Edrick’s pov.When her lips touched mine, I forgot how to breathe.For a moment I just stared at her, shocked and completely lost in the feeling. Aria had never kissed me before. Not since we got married. For all the times we had made love, she always waited for me to start it. She always hesitated, always held back like she was afraid to want me too much.But not this time.This time she climbed on top of me. This time she took my phone out of my hand. This time she kissed me with a hunger I had never seen from her before. And it hit me so hard I thought my brain might explode.I wanted to question it. I wanted to pause and ask what changed. But the moment her lips pressed harder against mine, every thought I had vanished.Before we got married, I hated when she threw herself on me. But now, I love it. It feels like she's a whole different person.There was no space left for doubt. Only her. Only the fire she woke in me.Her fingers grabbed my shirt, pulling at it like she needed it

The Look She Tried to Hide

Edrick’s POVI just sat there for a moment, staring at the screen long after Adrian ended the call. My fingers were still curled around the phone, stiff, like my hand refused to move. My chest felt tight. My father. Unconscious. Everything inside me twisted with worry, fear, and anger all mixed together.I was still trying to gather myself when I heard her soft steps.Aria walked back into the room with a small towel in her hand, drying her hair. Her smile hit me first. Warm. Bright. Effortless. It almost knocked the air out of my lungs because I knew within the next few seconds, that smile would disappear.“Why do you look like that?” she asked and walked closer. “Everything okay?”I swallowed. “You should get ready. We are leaving.”She froze. “Leaving? Leaving where?”“The island.” My voice sounded rough. “The honeymoon here is over.”“Oh.” She blinked, a tiny smile forming again. “So we are going to continue with the Europe trip? The tour you talked about?”A heavy feeling sank de
