Luna’s POV
“I’m never getting used to this” I whisper to Ace. We are both in the echography room and I’m lying on the hospital bed in a hospital dress. As stupid as I am, I put on a dress and now I had take it all off to change into a hospital dress right in front of Ace. He blatantly refused to leave the room when I asked him to so I could change. You have no idea how much I blushed and I’m still blushing right now. His hand hasn’t left my tummy ever since I lay on this bed. He keeps caressing my bump, then I remember how Asher made me choke on my soup this morning when he mentioned himself touching my tummy. I would die of embarrassment if that ever happens. Ace kisses my lips and tummy for the umpteenth time and I can’t help but roll my eyes. He’s exaggerating.
The door creaks open and the sonographer walks in, it’s the same woman who always does my ultrasound.
“You are once more welcome Mr. Ac
Ace and I spend the rest of the day together.When we left the hospital, he took me out for lunch and then to any place I wanted to visit.It’s past seven pm and we are driving to Asher’s house so he could drop me off.“You’ve done nothing but spoil me today”“You deserve it, even more. I love you and as it is now you are carrying the future heir to the Heritage Empire, you deserve every good thing”“Your mother will die before she lets an illegitimate child take over Heritage” I say chuckling and he looks at me with a frown.“Don’t call my child such”“But its the truth right? You’ll marry someone else, he’ll be illegitimate”“No he won’t” He denies and I roll my eyes and rest my head on the headrest. My phone rings and I smile instantly when I see Alora’s name on the caller ID. I instantly press the green ic
SOPHIA’S POVI’m loosing my mind, I’m loosing my fiancé, I’m loosing everything.Two weeks!It’s been two weeks since I started spending nights at Ace’s place just so he could touch me or at least have a descent conversation with me but all my efforts have been in vain. He avoids me like a contagious disease. All he ever thinks of and talks about is Luna!Our wedding is coming up in a few months but he is not interested in knowing how the preparations are pushing through. To him, it’s like I don’t exist, it’s like nothing like a wedding is coming up. His entire existence right now only revolves around Sophia and that bastard child she is carrying.But, I won’t give up. I am not going to sit back and watch Luna take Ace away from me. Even if I hy to do the most despicable things, I will do them to get rip of her and have my man back. She should enjoy while it lasts because not long f
“I’m actually heading downstairs to have breakfast” I tell Ace over the phone as I walk to the stairs and start descending. I look down in the living room where I spot Asher and Kyle seated on opposite chairs with Kyle giving Asher a murderous glare while Asher’s attention is focused on the news showing on TV. These men will never change.“Ace, I have to go now, Kyle is here and he doesn’t look too good right now. Asher made him wait for two whole hours while I slept. I can only imagine the anger that’s boiling in his heart right now”“Asher can definitely take a life for you”“Apparently”“Alright then, I’ll leave You now. I love you Luna”“I love you Ace” I say with my eyes closed and I can feel my own words stab my heart like a thousand daggers. Those word I’m not supposed to say to him. I am officially a fiancé snatcher.I&r
ACE’S POVIt’s been a while since Alaric and I last saw each other so we decided to meet today at Monte plaza to have lunch together. Kyle was supposed to join us but he got tied up at work.Yeah, ever since that man to man talk we had at that suite, we have been meeting up time an again to share a drink or two. I hope that one day we become very good friends again.I get a massage notification and when I tap on it, I smile foolishly when I see a photo of Luna and another girl. A text follows and I read in my mind.“Asher’s spoiling Alora and I today, it’s his day of” I chuckle as I read again.“Have you lost it already?” Alaric asks with a frown. “What’s with the foolish smile?”“Check this Out “ I give him my phone to look at the photo.“Whoa
SOPHIA’S POV“Why on earth do you have finger prints on your left cheek?” My cousin, Seven, asks concerned the moment I step into his office. Without uttering a word, I walk over to him and hug him tight as I burst into tears.I just made the biggest mistake of my life.“Sophia” He calls softly. “It’s okay sugar, calm down” He coos as he gently rubs my back. “Come on, let’s seat down” He leads me to the sitting area and we both sit on the couch. “What’s wrong Sophia” He asks worried.“I’ve fucked up big time seven” I say between sobs.“What did you do?”“I attacked Luna. I…I… we…we bumped…” I
ASHER’S POVI park my car in the garage, alight from it and walk to the door where l type my security code and walk in. Just the thought of seeing Luna and hugging her makes me excited. She has been on my mind all day and I can’t wait to see her beautiful face.I love Luna, I love her so much that it kills me internally to know that she loves someone else. All can do is hope that destiny plays her games and sets us together. I don’t want impose my feelings on her. I will never do that.“Hey bro” Alora greets as she kisses my cheeks.“Hey cupcake, how are you doing?”“I’m okay, how was work today?”“Exciting, got a new case at hand”
CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVEALORA’S POVMy brother’s love for Luna will take him to his early grave. I have never seen Asher so desperate and helpless before. I know he loves Luna but I don’t think I know to what extent that love runs. After witnessing his state last night, all I can conclude is that his love for Luna has no end, it knows no bounds.I have never seen my brother drunk before but last night he was totally wasted and he reeked of alcohol and sex. I didn’t meet him with any girl but I know that my brother had sex with a random girl last night and right now I’m going into his bedroom to find out who the girl was.I arrive at his bedroom door and I’m surprised to find it slightly open. Asher is a guy who is obsessed with privacy, but he’s very cunning too. He has been
CHAPTER FIFTY-SIXLUNA’S POVAsher deliberately refused to see me when I got back home last night. He had locked himself up his study and claimed to be busy. I clearly understand the reason for his actions and to be honest I would react the same way if I were in his shoes. Right now I really feel bad for ditching my plans of giving him a chance. The moment Ace mentioned that he wanted to be with me, everything changed. I couldn’t help but accept to be his woman.I sincerely love Ace and I want to be with him and nothing will stop me. All this while I tried to be considerate with Sophia despite our rough past. I didn’t want to snatch her man away from her but she pushed me to the wall. She started by sending threat messages then she attacked me at the restroom at the mall. My waist still hurts from that fall and when I think of all the mean things she did to me in high school, I just can’t help but want to pay her back
