Chapter 5
{PETRA}
"Wait!!" I heard Alex calling but I just needed fresh air, so I stopped by the car...
"I'm so sorry, kitten," he apologized.
"It's okay, can we go now? I'm not feeling too well," I said...
"Are you okay? Are you feeling dizzy? Does your stomach hurt?" He panicked
"Am good, your question might make me feel dizzy though."
He smiled.
"Thanks for caring," I said.
"I love you," he said as he brought his face closer, he kissed me and I responded to the kiss like my life depends on it.
"I love you too," I said, cutting the kiss...
We drove home laughing and whining
He carried me up to his bedroom, helped me get my bath ready and cuddled me to sleep...
Next day
I woke up to the sweet aroma of chicken wings.
"Good morning kitten" Alex pecked me.
I love this new Alex so much.
"The morning," I replied.
"Eat up, get ready, we are going to see my mom today, she wants to meet you." He said.
"Ok, that's cool," I said, rushing the food.
"Chill babe."
"Sorry", I said and went into the bathroom...
I got dressed and headed downstairs...
"Petra, do you love me?" Alex asked.
"Of course", I said.
"If I asked you to be my wife, what would you say?" he asked.
"Yes, of course," I said and he nodded...
* * * *** *** ***
Soon they arrived at Montero's mansion.
A wow escaped from Pet mouth.
"You like what you see right?" Alex asked
"This is so beautiful," she complimented.
"Thanks", he replied
Soon the door sprang open showing a middle-aged lady running towards them.
"Oh my cutie you are here," she said, hugging Petra.
"You look so beautiful darling," she complimented.
"Thanks, ma'am."
"Call me Kate" dearie.
"Ok ma'am," it slipped.
Kate gave a glare.
"Sorry Kate," she immediately corrected.
"That's better hun," she said walking her into the house.
"Mom you forgot about me" Alex called out.
"Well, you are a big boy, find your way inside the house," Kate replied...
{Pet}
The day with Kate was fun, she didn't let me do anything, she kept saying I shouldn't stress myself because of the baby, she's such an amazing woman...
"You will visit me very often right?" she asked me as we got to the door.
"Yes Kate, I will" I replied and pecked her goodbye.
"Take care of yourself darling" she called out...
"I will kate," I said.
Alex opened the car and we got in,...
"You didn't have my time," Alex whined.
"Are you jealous sweetie?" I asked
"Did you call me sweetie?" He asked
"Am sorry..." I said but he cut me off
"No no no I love It, don't ever call me Alex again," he said and planted a kiss on my lips.
"I love you!" he whispered.
"I love you too". I replied
*Things are just happening, so fast and I am so happy. I have got the man of my dreams by my side, a baby coming but one thing is missing... Or one person is missing in my life Loretta... *
"Are you okay" Alex jerked me off my thoughts?
"Yes", I replied.
"No you not, you have tears on your cheek and we have been home for over 5 mins and you didn't even know... "
"It's just something on my mind, thanks for today, I really need some space now," I said as I stepped out of the car and walked to the poolside..... I sat down looking at the water.
*How did everything turn so sour between us lorett? we used to love each other so much, oh my! somethings are just bound to happen.....*
Soon I slept off...
{Alex}
*Everything went perfectly fine but I am so sure, she has something on her mind... I guess she doesn't trust me enough to tell me... *
*I stepped outside to look for her and I met her sleeping by the poolside. Does she want to die of cold or what?...* I carried her gently to the room and placed her on the bed then covered her up...
*I will do anything and everything to make you happy my love... *
*I love you so much kitten, I love you...... *
{Skyler }
*I called every surgeon that will work on me. I need to change my entire body and put on some weight to have this sexy figure. After that I would find a way to destroy that idiot Petra, she's not going to have my man for herself ever and I mean never..... *
{Pet}
I woke up the next morning and met myself on the bed. I smiled because I know this is what Alex is doing.
Speaking of Alex, where is he because he is not here? I walked downstairs only to be greeted by a sweet aroma, so Alex is in the kitchen. I tiptoed to the kitchen and back hugged him.
"What is the CEO doing in the kitchen on a Sunday morning?" I asked
"Well, he is cooking for the Queen and princess," he replied.
"What makes you believe my baby is a girl?" I asked
"Nothing," he said
"If our baby is a boy, you will love him just as much right?" I asked
"Of course kitten," he replied
I sat down on a stool and he fed me
"This is so delicious, who taught you how to cook?"
"Well my mom" he replied
"That's great," I replied.......
"Let's watch the TV babe," he said
I raced to the sitting room, "careful their kitten" he shouted
The day was so much fun we played, laughed and did a lot of fun things together...
"I wish you could stay with me... " He said we were already outside the house Ari and I shared
"No boss, Ari will kill me and I can't stay without her..." I replied.
"So what happens when we get married kitten?" he asked
"We will figure that out sweetie" I replied, with that, I kissed him goodnight.......
Chapter 6
**Petra**
I entered the house and it was dark everywhere. I tried on the switch but it wasn't working.
"Ari, Ariiiiii, Ariana, Girlfriend.." I shouted.
"Oh my gosh what's going on I am already freaking out". Just then the lights went on and I saw everyone around me.
"Whose birthday is it?" I asked.
Everyone started laughing, what the heck is wrong with these people.. I thought mentally palming myself.
Just then I felt someone tap my back. I turned immediately and met Alex on his knee with a box.
"Wow…. Oh my gosh" I squealed.
"Kitten I've been crazy about you every since the first day you stepped into my office for a job, I was just so stupid to notice it, you are unique and I would have loved something big for this occasion but Ariana said you loved it simple" He said smiling widely then he became serious again.
"Mi Amor I promise to make you the happiest woman in the world, on earth itself if you say yes to me today, so Petra will you marry me? be my wife? Let me father all your children? And most especially treat you like the queen you are?".
"Yes Yes Yes Alexandra Yes!!" I said jumping up and down is exciting.
He stood up, carried me turning me around then he placed a soft kiss on my lips.
"I love u kitten" He said with love in his eyes.
"I love u too baby" We kissed again till Kate interrupted us.
"Awwnnnnnn those idiots made the sound
So I just have to prepare for your wedding, it should be as soon as possible because you have to get married before you give birth" Kate said.
Wait a minute, is Alex proposing because I am pregnant.. I felt my heart cling immediately.
"Ma'am I would love to assist" Ari squealed, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Of course dearie, I can't manage it on my own and don't call me ma'am, just Kate".
"Liam is my second son and since he loves you, you are also my daughter just like Petra is" She said hugging Ari.
It's official Alex is marrying me because of the baby. What of that girl we even met at the restaurant? Oh my gosh I feel so stupid.
"In that case if we are your daughters we can call you mom right?" Ariana asked.
"Wow, that will be so sweet of you girls," Kate replied, smiling out tears.
"It's okay mom" Ari said, hugging her and I joined in.
Alex and Liam also joined and we laughed.
I think the press took a shot but who cares.. I was just so fulfilled or maybe not. First Alex is marrying me for the baby and secondly she's not here. Everything hurts, I let my tears flow out and I ran to the garden.
**Alex**
We we're all having a nice time after I proposed to my kitten but she started crying and ran out...
"What's wrong?" I asked out loud.
"She probably remembered her again and she felt bad," Ari said.
"Who is she?I don't understand," I asked, confused.
"Well she will be at the garden should I go calm her down or you will?" Ari asked.
"I will" I said and ran after her, there she was sitting in a spot close to some flowers, tears were still running down her face.
"You know the doctor said you shouldn't cry so much, it will spoil your beautiful face" I teased and she smiled but it was short lived.
"I just miss her Alex".
"Who?" I asked.
"My sister, we used to be real close, everything was so perfect but she loves partying, dad scolded her when she returned and said so many hateful words to her, he said she wasn't his daughter but that was a lie, she got furious and ran out of the house she was hit by a car, mom got really stressed about everything, she was actually sick before but didn't tell anyone, the shock gave her an attack and she passed out, she couldn't make it…" She paused sniffling more than before as the tears started afresh.
"Dad couldn't bear the fact that he caused her being in coma and mom's death so he killed himself, I was left alone with her, one morning I was cleaning up the house when her boyfriend walked in, he started confessing that he had feelings for me, I was stunned and he caught me off guard by kissing me before I could push him off I saw her standing by the doorstep".
"She was broken by what she saw ,apparently she woke up the previous day and told the doctor not to inform me that she wanted it to be a surprise and she was surprised instead".
"She didn't even let me explain.. Ari who has been friends with us right from childhood tried to talk to her but she cut off all ties with us and she hates me with passion, she didn't even get to find out that dad lied to her and she was truly his daughter... I miss her, she concluded sobbing".
"It's okay my love she will come around" I patted her.
"She won't Alex, it's been 4 years now and Lucia still hasn't heard me out" she said.
"Things would get better" I said and planted a kiss on her lips.
"Come on we are engaged and our wedding should be in 3 months time, you need to shop" I said.
"Oh about that Alex, I can't marry you," She said.
"Whattt!!!!"
"I know you just want to get married to me because of the baby" She said.
"I can't believe you just said this I stated, I used my hands to ruffle my hair in frustration.
"Petra i love you damn it, ever since the first day i met you at the office, so where is this coming from?" I cried in frustration.
"I'm sorry" She said slowly. I saw a tear drop from her eye.
"You have to get a dress you know or i conclude you don't want to get married to me" I said.
"Oh really!!!" she exclaimed as her face brightened up. She threw her heels at me.
"Arrrgh!!!" I shouted and ran behind a tree, she stood up and ran after me.. "Oh calm down sweetie we don't want to hurt our baby" I said.
She laughed and nodded.
"Okay piggyback?" I asked.
"Yea!!" she squealed and climbed on my back, we laughed back into the house.
Every other thing went well and everyone went home, it was time to go home. Liam drove mother home, I tucked her to bed, kissed her goodnight and headed home.
I just love her.
Chapter 7
(Undergoing surgery)
Skyler
Arrrrghhhhhh this people are really getting on my nerves, I just got a beep on my phone and the headline I saw was
HEADLINE
"Billionaire Playboy Finally Finds Love".
COMMENTS
"Omg Alexander Montero is getting married".
"I wish to find someone who will love me this way".
"Can you believe his nickname for her is kitten?".
Every headline with a photo of him proposing to that idiot and a family photo with his mum, best friend and that idiot's best friend also.
I swear I won't let this happen, I won't.
I dialled my surgeon's number.
" Yes ma'am" he answered from the other end
"Prepare for my surgery I'm coming over"
"But ma'am.." He tried to protest
"Keep shut and do as I say!!" I commanded.
"What are you going to do now?" Eva asked, walking in.
"Nice question Eva, first I am going to complete my surgery before that wedding, then I will know what next" I smiled evilly..
**Eva**
I don't know what's up but I know something is definitely wrong.. The skyler I know will try everything in her best to break them apart and I won't let that happen, I have to do something and I really need to act fast.
"Damn Eva, think of something" I sighed frustrated.
I can't figure it out right now but I will surely make sure none of them gets hurt.
You guys might be thinking like why does Eva want to save Petra and betray skyler?
Well that question will be answered later but not now......
**Ari**
I was so happy everything has fallen into place, the only person left is Lucia and I definitely need to meet her to clear the air up, she really needs to know the truth and Pet deserves to be happy.
Right now we are at Kate's house planning the wedding.
I will say only that I and Kate are planning the wedding because Pet has been digging in some ice creams. She has been having some carvings recently and she's getting emotional recently. I guess it's the pregnancy....
"Alexxxxxxx!!" she screamed.
"Yes kitten, I will be down in a minute" He replied.
She got down and she started crying.
"Are you with a woman there? Is that why you came one minute late? So you don't love me anymore right?" She bombarded him with questions.
"Noo baby, please don't cry sweetie it's nothing like that I was closing up some files" He explained.
"So those files are more important than me right?" she cried even more.
"Alex is in for it today" Mom whispered and I smiled.
"Nooo baby I am so sorry" Alex said, holding his ears.. He planted a kiss on her lips and hugged her.
"Okay fine, you have to prepare me chicken soup, right?" She said,
"Yes ma'am" He replied and carried her into the kitchen and placed her on the table then he began cooking.
'So sweet' I smiled, Then my mind drifted to Liam, I love him but we mostly have sex no fun, somethings I wonder if he truly loves me.
"What type of flowers do you think we should use?" Mom cut me short of my thoughts.
"White lilies, that's Pet's favourite flower" I answered.
"Okay then" She said, something about my face gave me away.
"Are you okay?" She asked with an inquisitive stare. I nodded
I am far from okay but what exactly can I do about it?.
