Anna's POV
"Tessa Rodrigue has been sentenced to life imprisonment for the kidnap of the Billionaire's daughter, Lily Elizabeth Alvarez", the reporter states, and I heave a deep sigh. I feel a touch and I know instantly that it is Aidan.
"What are you thinking about?" He asks me after pecking my lips. He pulls me closer and puts off the television with the control. I am sitting in between his legs with his back on the headboard.
"Nothing", I whisper. I have just finished taking a bath and Aidan is also coming out of the bathroom. We have plans of going on a tour today. We are on a vacation to Paris and we are going to begin our tour today.
We have been indoors for two days now, doing nothing other than playing games, cuddling in each other's arms, and having sex. Sex with Aidan is amazing and I love every moment of it. I love my life now and I am hoping it will last forever.
"Are you sure?" He bites my earlobe softly, with his hands on my chest.
"Aidan?" I take his hands off and turn to face him.
His towel is almost off and I flush. I still can't believe this is happening. I can't believe this is happening. I wouldn't have thought Aidan and I will be this way. I never thought he is the man in my future and the thought of it all scares the shit out of me. I don't want to lose him, I have realized that now, with all the things that have happened. I don't want to lose him or my baby or anyone I love.
I thought I had lost him the day he lost consciousness at his father's home. I kept crying, shouting for him to please come back to me.
I realize just how much Aidan meant to me that day. I thought the accident made me have feelings for him out of sympathy but that day, the realization dawned on me that Aidan means the world to me and it is high time I professed my feelings for him. He has been patient enough.
"Are you still bothered about Tessa?" He asks me softly, raising my jaws.
"No, baby", I peck his forehead. "I'm just worried."
"Worried about what?" He asks me. I am staring at his blue eyes, giving me a calm feeling that everything will be fine, just like he had assured me the other day.
If everything is going to be fine, then why am I bothered even after Tessa and Trevor are now in prison?
There is no one else to fight us or wish us ill-luck and I am supposed to be extremely glad about the happenings but I just don't know if it's because of the incident with Aidan the last time. I am fucking scared he is going to go away someday, leaving me and Lily and his child. I bend my head and rub my hand over my flat belly. My pregnancy is just 6 weeks old.
"You," I answer after a moment of silence.
"What?" He chuckles lightly and drags me to himself, trailing kisses all over me. I want assurance from him, not kisses so I move away from his hold again with a deep frown on my face.
He laughs again. He gazes at me. "I'm going nowhere, Anna."
"This is not funny, Aidan", I scowl at him.
"I didn't say it is funny", he grins widely.
"You were laughing", I state.
"It's not a crime to laugh or is it?" He peers at me with an amusing expression.
"Whatever!" I roll my eyes and wave my hand in his face as a sign of dismissal. I want to get up to make myself up when he grabs me and I fall with a thud on the bed. We both laugh.
"I'm going nowhere, Anna. You have nothing to worry about", he hovers above me, with his legs straddling me.
"Sure?" I touch his chest and stare at him.
"I know what you are scared about", he stands upright and sits on the bed, before pulling me to his position on the bed. I place my head on his chest like I love doing and trail my hands on his chest.
I know what he is talking about, he is talking about the night of the incident that happened a longh ago and how miserable I was thinking he was dead. His consciousness gave me goosebumps because it felt like a ghost had risen from death. I thought I had lost him, I thought he was dead.
