Divorce.

Chapter 1: Divorce Mirellas POV“You’re home early” I smiled, setting the wine table, “perfect, I have a surprise for you.”The penthouse glowed with soft candlelight. The scent of rosemary and butter floated through the air, I’d even put on his favorite silk dress.Tonight was supposed to be our night, After years of heartbreak, failed tests, and hospital visits.Tonight was the night I’d tell him I was pregnant.I’d imagined it so many times, his shocked grin, the way he’d pull me into his arms and kiss me, the laughter and brainstorming of baby names. I wanted to see him cry, just once, with joy instead of frustration.But the moment Nikolai stepped into the doorway, something felt off. His cologne filled the room, He dropped his keys into the silver dish by the door his movements sharp. He didn’t take off his jacket. He didn’t smile. Didn’t even glance at the dinner table or the silk dress I’d chosen.He looked….tired. His eyes, that I loved, didn’t soften when they met mine.“I

Get out.

Mirellas POV“Please, Nikolai…don’t do this, we can still fix this okay, I can forgive you and then we can go back to how it always was,” I whispered.“She’s pregnant Mirella,” he admits, not a morsel of guilt in his eyes, no warmth.The room went silent.Candlelight flickered between us, catching the reflection of my trembling hands. I opened my mouth but no sound came out. My heart pounded so loudly I could barely hear my own thoughts.“She’s what?” I finally whispered.“I’m pretty sure you heard me the first time.”Each word hit like a million arrows.My stomach twisted, my heart in practical pieces. “No, you, that can’t,“ I let out a shaky laugh. “Nikolai, we’ve, we’ve been trying for years..you said we’d go to the clinic again next month, you.. You promised me Nikolai.”His jaw clenched. “Exactly, we’ve been trying for years, enough is enough woman, this isn’t about that.”“Then what is it about?” I demanded, my voice breaking. “You promised me. You said we were in this together.

Andreas.

Mirella's POV“Jaxon, he threw me out,” I sobbed into the phone, my voice barely audible over the rain hammering the roof of the cab. “He doesn’t want me anymore.”The driver's eyes flicked at me in the rearview mirror, his gaze was pitying, cautious, Then turned back to the road. I pressed my forehead against the cold window, watching the Belgrave skyline blur into streaks of light.“Slow down,” my brother’s voice came through, low and tight. “What the hell do you mean threw you out? Where are you?”“I, I don’t know,” I stammered. “I just left. I couldn’t stay there. He…he said he wants a divorce. Jax, he’s leaving me for Liora.”Silence. Then a hissed curse. “That son of a, Mirella, listen to me. I’m coming back tonight.”“No, no, you can’t.” I wiped my face with my sleeve. “You told me you have important meetings and conferences for the next day,““To hell with the conference!” he barked. Then his tone softened, breaking at the edges. “You’re crying, I can hear it. Little sister, I

The wedding.

Mirella's POVA MONTH LATER“No, I haven’t turned on the television Tessa, is something wrong?” I asked, worry etched on my face.It’s been a month since my divorce and the pain still felt as fresh as it did on that very day. Andreas was at work, so I was the only one left in the house.“What do you mean? I shouldn’t freak out, you’re scaring me Tessa, I’m just going to,“ I turned it on and my eyes widened in complete shock when I saw what was on.It was Nikolai and Liora on live television. They were getting married in a weeks' time!I mean I knew marriage had to come eventually but.. I didn’t think it would be this soon, it’s only been one month.I stared ahead, my eyes glued to the screen, tears slowly welling up in my eyes.Tessa frantically called for me over the phone, asking if I was okay.“I’ll call you back Tessa, okay?” And with that I cut the line off. I just couldn’t, I wasn’t myself, I hadn’t been myself in a long time.Without giving it a second thought, I rushed out of

I don’t hate you

Mirellas POVImmediately I walk through the door I find Tessa already waiting for me.“Finally!” She ran towards me, her face riddled with worry as she inspects my face and my body.“Tessa, What are you doing here?, how’d you get in?” I asked tiredly, I was too weak to show my surprise.“Andreas called to let me in, he called me on my way here and asked me, well ordered me to check on you.” She said absentmindedly as she kept inspecting me.“Andreas, Called you, why?” I asked as something small and almost unnoticeable blossomed at the pit of my stomach.“Why?, Why?!” Her voices going higher, “the whole city of belgrave knows why mirella…what were you thinking, how dare Nikolai not stand up for you, how dare she lay a hand on you! If I ever catch that bitch, her disgustingly pretty face would be not so pretty” Tessa raves on, but the only thing I picked out of it was.“Andreas saw it..?” I mean I knew he was bound to see it but.. I wasn’t ready for that reality. How was I going to look

Teasing and pancakes.

Mirellas pov“How are you feeling, Mirella?” Jaxon asked, worry evident in his tone. Referring to me being absolutely torn apart on live television. “I’m fine Jaxon.” An obvious lie, but I hated making him worry so much, I made the stupid decision to go over there and this is just me having to deal with the consequences, I just thought maybe I could fix things and everything would go back to normal. That was a stupid dream I spat at myself, the fresh hurt of Nikolai’s betrayal stung.“Mirella, you are not okay..” his voice softer , “I’m sorry I’m not there right now. If I was, none of this shit would be happening right now, especially that skanky bitch he got on the side. How dare she fucking touch you, I swear I’m gonna.”“Jaxon, please…just leave it, I can fight my own battles, I’m not a little girl anymore, I don’t need you fighting my battles for me, I will take care of it, okay? I’ve learnt my lessons, trust me, nothing like this will ever happen again” I said to him, a new dete

What are you doing to me bambolina

Andreas’s POV I have survived a whole lot of shit in this world, a lot of demons, I’ve had to claw my way to the top, yet nothing unravels me faster than the sound of mirella saying ‘hello’ to her mother in that quiet broken voice. She’s sat beside me, phone pressed to her ear, her hand tightened around it like it might shatter if she squeezed hard enough, her eyes unfocused as the color drains from her face, her shoulders stiffen. I kept my eyes on the road, but ever nerve in my body beckoned for my eyes to be on her, to smash that goddamn phone in her hand, throw it out the window even. “Yes” mirella says softly. A pause “Its not like I planned for this, mother.” Mirella continues, voice still polite but seemed on the edge of loosing it. Another pause. “No I’m not alone.” That gets my attention. Her beautiful eyes flick to me, glossy with unshed tears, before darting back to the window, God I wanted to kiss them away before they even had the honor to cascade down

Who is Mirella

Mirellas povThe first headline I see that morning makes me nauseous.‘MARCELI HEIR CONFIRMED — LIORA HALE SPOTTED LEAVING CEO’S PENTHOUSE’I stare at my phone, wishing this was all just a horrible nightmare and I’d wake up any second now, sadly my wish did not come true.“Turn it off.” Tessa says from the kitchen counter. “You’re doom scrolling again, and from what I can tell on your face, you just saw something you really don’t like.”“I just woke up, and I have raging morning sickness, so that might be the discovery on my face.”“You just woke up and already torturing yourself. Impressive.”I drop the phone face down, “they’re really milking it.”“Fuck them, they can rot in hell for all I care and you should be saying the same.”she slides a mug towards me. “Drink.”“I don’t want tea.” I whine.“Girl, you’re pregnant, you don’t get opinions, drink.”I snort at her comment. “You’re awful.”“Aww, I love you too girl,.” She then jumps on the couch, now next me. “Now back to what you we

My little succubus.

Andreas POV The house was quiet when I stepped inside, I loosened my toe as I closed the door behind me, the muted click echoing. It’s late. Later than I intended. Meetings bled into calls, calls bled into damage control, and damage control bled into mind numbing exhaustion. Still one person was constant in my mind through it all, Mirella. I had figured a girls day out would do her much good, especially after yesterday. I admit I was keeping my distance, avoiding her in other words, it’s becoming hard to hide my attraction for her, my need for her, my numbing want for her. So I did what I do best, what I’ve always done best, ignore her. It worked when we were kids and I’d make damn sure it works now, I made my way up the stairs and against my recent decision, the first thing I did without thinking I’d glance towards the hallway that leads to mirellas room. Goddamit. That woman was an infatuation, an addiction, I wanted to live and breathe her, touch her, fuck her. Damn reas, pull

Cozy corner brews.

Mirella’s POV “He said what?!” Tessa literally screamed, her voice reaching every tiny crease of the small cozy cafe we were currently in. She had dragged me out of the house to ‘get me out of the rut I was starting to sink in’ whatever that meant. Her words, not mine. We had ended up in this small cafe down the street from her workplace. ‘Cozy corner brews’ Tessa worked in a design firm, she was an interior design assistant, we had the same design degree, just that I, never pursued mine. I was busy playing the perfect stepford wife. I quickly slammed her mouth shut with my palm while mumbling small apologies to everyone in the cafe as their annoyed and concerned faces were all turned towards us. She licks my hand in weird swirls causing me to let go immediately in disgust. “Ewwww.” I grimaced with a giggle. “Oh shut up, you wish Andreas’s tongue did that to your clit last night, didn’t you?.” She teased, with a huge smile on her face. “Tessa!” I cautioned. She giggles a
