It was early and i was already wide awake, truth was i hadn't slept for long last night, and i had simply lay on my bed staring into the darkness as i thought about what my life would have been like at the moment if my baby were here. Perhaps I'd be up trying to keep her from crying, or perhaps we'd both be asleep napping cozily in the comfort of each other's warmth. My baby..... What would i have named her anyway? I had thought about names, and i only remembered that now. I recalled how i had been sitting dejectedly on a couch in the living room and Micheal and April had come to visit. *flashback* "God, Alexa, you're pregnant not dying, quit looking like this". April had said with a subtle roll of her eyes. Of course i had ignored her. I was pregnant, yes, but it felt lile i waa dying, felt i was slowly but surely drifting away, felt like i was slowly but surely losing my mind. "April". Micheal said her name quietly to probably stop her from being mean or something,i didn't

“It’s why you’re so depressed….”. His words hung deeply between us and I sat there staring at him while tears smoothly streaked down my cheeks. “If you hadn’t been so hung up on the fact that this was an arranged marriage, you would have noticed that I kissed you first, and you didn’t ask me to”. He said to me. He was talking about the first time, I remembered it all clearly but it seemed he didn’t remember it as I did.“Not directly”. I said. “Stop”. He said. He cupped both my cheeks delicately as though he thought I would break if he handled me otherwise. “Stop doing this to yourself”. I blinked and more tears left my eyes, my eyes were getting sore now and my head was beginning to ache but I couldn’t stop myself from crying. If he claimed that he had kissed me without me asking him to then I needed to know why he had kissed me in the first place.“Then why’d you do it? Why’d you kiss me?”. I asked him quietly. He delay a second before answering.“Because you had been irresi

It was pretty much getting late when April’s car pulled up right outside the gate of the mansion. She had somehow managed to convince Alexa to spend the day with her, they had gone from eating Chinese food to going shopping and then the spa. “You could do with a good massage”. She had said to her. “And then we can hit the saloon to get our hair and nails done”. There was absolutely nothing wrong with April’s nails and hair, they were literally flawless; just like the perfect blue of her eyes. But then, she didn’t want to make Alexa feel like she was indirectly telling her that she could work on her hair and nails which she was, so she did hers too. As grueling as the entire process had been, Alexa found herself relaxed and refreshed afterwards. Her nails had been done, her hair looked even more vibrant and the dark circles underneath her eyes had faded considerably. She looked better, even she could attest to that, and she found she felt better too. “Thanks for hanging out wit

She moaned quietly as his fingers hastily slid into her hair to cup the back of her head, her eyes shut themselves as her wanton body arched against him. He had kissed her before, several times since the first time, but the urgency with which he kissed her with now sought to make her lose her mind. His lips continued to work against hers impatiently, it was almost as though he sought to drink her in; to drink in every last breath she had to offer, and she loved it, how could she not when she loved him so much? “What are you doing to me?”. He asked her when their lips broke apart at last. She was breathing heavily now, they both were, and she found it almost hard to speak at all.“Distracting you”. She replied breathlessly. His darkened eyes were intense, so intense that they had her squirming on his lap as wetness begun pooling in between her legs. “Yes, but should you be doing that now?”. He asked her. She was indeed distracting him; her heaving bosom was after all in his face

ALEXA’S POV The pair walked up to me quickly, and before i could comprehend what was happening Sasha lunged at me and hugged me tightly, so tightly that I became uncomfortable. I cleared my throat quietly as I subtly tried to get her off me; Rayne noticed and he smirked whilst shaking his head amusedly.“You’re crushing her, Sash”. He said as he reached out and took her arm. “Let go of her”.I was glad he finally pried her off me. Sasha chuckled heartily.“Cut me some slack, dude, I just realized I missed her so much”. She said. Her gaze snapped back to mine and she threw her hands around in a dramatic gesture. “What the hell girl? You’ve been MIA for like…ever”. I brushed my hair from my face as I thought about what to say, where would I begin? How could I even talk about it without bursting into tears and breaking down all over again? They both stood there watching me, and though I knew Rayne wouldn’t probe me to answer if I didn’t, I knew Sasha most definitely would so I said:
