The next morning I wake up, everything was a blur. I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar ceiling and rubbed my skin against a soft linen bedding. A breath of relief escaped my lips when I rolled to the side and there was still a good distance left in between the two of us.
Liam was sleeping. Next to me. Soundly and peacefully. His chest heaved up and down slowly following the soft pattern of his breathing. My eyes involuntarily traveled downward as I observed his toned chest. My heart raced and heat rose up to my face accordingly. I gripped harder onto my comforter and quickly turned away.
What the heck was that?
My imaginary went wild. So wild that I had to force myself to shut my eyes and gave my mind another rest.
"Hello?"

"London."My muscles stiffened at the dark deep voice and I watched as Lydia and Kitty's mouth slowly parted into a gasp. They quickly looked down. Clearly, was too afraid to look at whoever that was standing behind me in the eyes, they ducked their heads low."What're you two doing here?" The voice asked and immediately, Lydia answer."W-we just finished with the clients, sir." She stammered.A short pause was added in between his calming breath before he said, "Get back to work."The order was short and easy yet impactful. Lydia and Kitty gave a knowing nod."Yes, sir." They both voiced in unison.

Two weeks had passed since the Meredith incident and Liam and I had eventually moved back to his mansion. Everything returned to its normal state as exactly as it was before we get married but worst.I became lonely.Dreadfully, lonely up in my bedroom.In the morning, Liam left for work. His returning schedule also was unpredictable. Some days he came back very late at night and there were days he came back a little earlier but he would either spend the rest of the evening in his office or go out. I did not see much of him and neither did he had seen a lot of me. It was like we were not even living together, or let alone married to one another. We were like two strangers sharing the same floor inside this vast mansion. From time to time, our names were mentioned in a conversation but

"Liam, I-""Where have you been?"Getting out of the car, I stood still. His tall body was hovering over me and I could hardly breath through panicking."Liam, calm down." I heard Luke hissed from beside me as he jogged around the car and approached the two of us."Don't make me repeat myself, Saint." Liam uttered furiously, "Where the hell have you been?!" This time his voice was loud enough to make me jump.Tracing my tongue along my bottom lips before hardly bit down on it to ease my anxiety, I kept my glance down and my head low. I didn't want him to see how horrified I was. I didn't want him to know."Liam. Breath." As Luke's h

"Where are we going?" The first thing I asked Liam right when he joined me in the back of his SUV. Harold, our driver started the engine before the car was driven smoothly down the driveway."Your mother has arranged a baby shower for one of her friend's daughter" Liam finally answered, "Madison, something.""Oh." I gulped, nodding my head in acknowledgement, "Didn't know she's pregnant.""So did I." He mumbled ironically under his breath making me sighed.The distance from Liam's house to mine though wasn't quite far, I wish it was closer. Another second sitting in a confined space of an SUV with him and I could die.There was tension building up in the air as we both sat in silence

"Eat your food. Not play with it." Liam said causing me to look up from my plate and gawked at him. It was the first time Liam and I had a proper meal together at home with just the two of us in his big dining room. Few maids were standing along the side of the table, making sure they tend to everything we'd ever needed to make our dining experience extra pleasant.But little did they know, the only way I could fully enjoy having dinner with Liam was that I had to not be there."I am not hungry." I couldn't force myself to eat as every time I held up a spoonful of food to my mouth, I wanted to vomit.A vomit reminded me of morning sickness and then, morning sickness technically representedpregnancy. Everything I did, every air I breathed in, I only thought back to

"Wait, what?!" Giovanna gasped, looking at me with her eyes widened and mouth hanging open. "C-can Liam come with us today?" I repeated my question earlier again and awkwardly took a sip from my tea cup. We were having breakfast together at the main kitchen. I was sitting on one of the bar stools while Giovanna was standing on the opposite side of the island. "Doeshe want to come with us?" She asked suggestively and I nodded, "Okay. What in the world is going on here? You get Liam to take us shopping?!" I sighed, did't get it why did she have to make it such a big deal. It wasn't like Liam had never gone out. He was rarely at home on a daily basis. "But we cannot

It was a beautiful Saturday morning, two weeks since I last saw Liam and I found myself seating across the table from Giovanna and three other strangers in a small coffee shop, downtown of Brooklyn."Lolo?" I looked up to see four pairs of eyes staring straight at me and quickly, I shoved my phone back inside my purse."Sorry." I mumbled and took a small sip from my cup of hot cocoa."Who was that you were texting?" Giovanna asked, propped her chin in her hand boringly while her elbow resting on the table."A boyfriend?" Alisha smirked, eying me mischievously."I thought you said you're single!" Penelope shrilled and Kyle began shifting uncomfortably in his seat.

"You put your life in danger. You put yourfriend's lifein danger. What the hell were you thinking?!"That morning, I remembered waking up with a throbbing headache, sore legs and arms and exactly, that cold deadly voice. No further guessing was needed for me to be able to tell who it was. The only person who would have the nerve to use that tone around this house couldn't be anyone else apart from him."Are you seriously blaming it all on me right now?!" Another voice yelled and I immediately recognized it to be Giovanna's.Slowly, I sat up from my bed and began to take a look around. The familiar sight of my organized bedroom and a worried look on Pyper's face were the first two things that came to my view."What
