Ares groaned as he turned to look at the owner of the little hand that wrapped itself around his torso.He rubbed at his eyes for a second and shook his head to clear his foggy brain before focusing his eyes on her again.“Sara” he whispered slowly to himself, recalling the event of the previous night.A wide smile stretched his lips and he ran his fingertips along the edges of her face.She looked, so peaceful, sleeping like a baby overdose and high on breast milk, he liked to see her like this, wanted to see her more like this.He hovered there for a few more minutes, admiring her beauty and innocence when her eyes opened to him.“You are staring,” she said simply “I cannot help myself, you are gorgeous” he gushed at her.“Good morning” she greeted, lowering her face into his chest to hide her blushing face. “Good morning, beautiful, I saw that blush,” Ares said chuckling.She hit his chest playfully, burying herself even deeper into the crook of his neck.They lay like that for s

Eve dropped the phone and sighed, she mentally applauded herself and the genius, almost perfect acting skills.She sipped from her glass of champagne, of course, it was too early to drink, but hey, she did not make the rules, and she was not going to keep it either.Trotting lazily to get the laptop, she sat down in front of the table, setting her glass down and cracking her fingers ready to begin some work.Now that she was very sure of getting this money out of Ares, all she had to do was close this Jew deal and buy the software of the biggest developers, if they were ready to sell or do business, that is.She had sent her representative earlier to the meeting and was anticipating his return and advice.Typing away noisily, she created a new business plan and mapped out ways to either escape her debt or sort it out.This was hectic for her, she would rather just sit around or gallivant somewhere abroad than work.But she knew she needed this, she would not be young forever, and she

Chapter 85“Who is Eve?” The question kept ringing violently in his ear, and he searched his mind for a suitable answer to give, guarding his mind and aura, so she doesn't read it.Now that her powers were slowly coming back, he would have to do that a lot until the Evelyn saga was done.“Uhm, she's an old friend” Ares answered, the food suddenly too hard for him to swallow.He felt like puking just from the thoughts of him lying to her effortlessly like that.He needed to do better, he cautioned himself silently.“Oh, okay,” Sara answered without further questions.“Why did you ask?” He asked curiously.“I overheard you say her name,” she said simply.That did not answer his question or clear his suspicions.“And she is pregnant?” Sara asked.“Yes, you overheard that too?" He asked. “Yeah, I heard Eve and baby, that's all.” She said as she munched on a piece of great hungrily.“You have seen uneasy,” Sara observed, she could make out his features and, for some reason even beyond th

Chapter 87Eve hummed lowly as she steamed her dress, she had managed to get the girls' attention with the little bait she dangled before them, and they had all agreed to hang out today.Carmen had even postponed her precious shoot for some other day just to be there.She felt a little bad about this deceit, but she also knew she had to do it, there was no escaping it for sure.Working the steamer down the length of the dress, she admired the soft material of it with delicate fingers.Having decided against using the fake silicone bump, she had reasoned it would be better for her to show up like that, and tell them she was just three months gone.Technically is too early for a hump to be visible yet, takes off to Bali or the Maldives and hides away until she sorted her business and debts.They would fall for it, she was very sure of that, all she had to do was put up a very fake smile and maybe a few drops of tears when necessary.Eve glanced at the antique clock on the wall, she had

Sara had freshened up immediately, ready to leave for the pharmacy with Anna Anna had been looking at her a little too long since she made that statement about not wanting to be a mother.As much as she wanted to tell her the truth, she was scared as to what Anna would think of her.The pharmacy was in a supermarket not too far from the house, so Anna had suggested they walk, it was a chance for her to get to see the city a little, she had said.So Sara had agreed immediately to it, she needed to clear her head after all, and now she had an opportunity she was not going to throw it away.They walked hand in hand on the curb, Sara asked questions and Anna answered diligently.“Sara?” Anna called in a concerned tone.“Hmm” she hummed back.“When you said something about not wanting to be a mother, were you serious?” Anna asked.Sara did not answer right away, she contemplated telling Anna the truth. And decided to just trust her anyway.“Yes, I was,” she said simply.She waited for the
