Briana POV :
“Oh my God, it’s a boy?” I gasped and stop on my track with the grin Charlotte who just naughtily giggle “But, why you didn’t say anything to Rhys? He already bought all the pink stuff” I exclaim in disbelief with my crazy friend.
“I just want to see his face when the baby’s out” She laugh and I just shook my head, don’t know how to respond toher and her crazy mind. “You know though mother already know about the s*x so she prepare everything for him” she add which is calm me; I can’t imagine what will happen when the baby born and they didn’t have boy’s stuff for him.
“How bout’ this?” I point to the pearl necklace that I saw in the store.
Christmas is in two days ahead and I still don’t have anything for Eowyn and Aiden.
“Briana, it’s so expensive, NO” She frown and shook her head before start walking away.
But it’s pretty, I thought and decide to walk into the store.
“BREE..!!” Charlotte quickly turn around and sigh when she saw me pay for the necklace.
I raise the box and smile while she just shook her head.
Eowyn and Aiden is like my second parents so I want to give them something special this Christmas since I be able to spend my time here with them.
“Mother will be mad when she know you spend so much money for the necklace, Bree” Charlotte speak when I walk out from the store.
I just smile and shrugged “It’s worth her smile” I comment and saw her smile.
She know how I love her family and grateful for what they done to me.
She put her hand on my shoulder “You’re the best, Sisi” She teases with the nickname that was shortcut from Sister.
I just rolled my eyes even though hearing her call me Sisi makes me happy.
Ring.. Ring..
I turn my gaze when Charlotte phone ringing and know exactly who is the one who call her.
She rolled her eyes when she pull out the phone.
“Yes, Rhys”
I giggled and leave her to give her some privacy.
I watch that there are four men to guard us around, which is not surprise knowing who I am with right now and with the special condition she had, makes her parents and husband act more protective to their princess, Charlotte.
But Charlotte isn’t like other rich people, she really kind and sweet and sometimes I am forgot that she's come from important family when I’m with her.
Then I take a look around the mall and stop immediately when I see unfamiliar face staring back at me.
It’s a man with a black jacket and jeans that I think is around 5’9’’ tall lock his gaze to me.
I raise my brow and gasped when I notice the tattoo from the man beside him.
No.
It can’t be!
“C’mon, Sis” I jump when Charlotte touch my hand and speak which make her frown “What’s wrong?” She asked immediately before looking around the place.
Should I tell her?
No, she’s pregnant.
I shook my head and give her a small smile “You startled me, Char” I told her who sigh.
“We need to go to the Sultan” She start walking with me and before I can asked, she quickly speak “Rhys was there with his friend who invite us to come and join them” She winked “Gerrard will be there too” I try not to blush when I hear her.
Gosh, what is it with her and try to match me with people she knows?!
“I bet Vincent will be mad knowing that, ha! Take that asshole for making you wait and acted like an i***t” She talk to herself loudly so I can hear her whole words.
Again, I just shook my head; don’t know how to respond her.
I just hope the man with the same tattoo like Kurt is just a coincident.
Kurt is dead along with his friends, Briana, no one will come and tries to hurt you anymore.
You are safe.
*****
“Tell me, tell me.. what did you buy for Vincent” Charlotte keep asking me the same question until we arrive in front of the Sultan.
I just smile and shook my head which frustrate her so bad, I know how she really want to know about it.
“I bet you just wrap yourself, huh?” She tease and laugh when see me blushed.
“Stop it”
“Your face” She giggles and point to my reddened face.
Ugh. “Shut up Char.. lotte” I pause when I saw the scene in front of me.
“What’s wr..oongg” Charlotte stop and saw the same think like I do “s**t! What an i***t!!”
We both saw that it’s Vincent with a woman in his hand coming out from the elevator of the hotel.
I should have known that he didn’t have the same feeling like I do.
He love me like a sister.
“Let’s go” Charlotte grab my hand and keep walking to the café inside but I can't stop myself to think about the woman with him. I always know he loves blonde with killer body, but seeing with my own eyes.. God I am truly in shock.
Vincent spends his time with a woman in the Sultan hotel.
God, it hurts me.

Vincent POV :
Last night is a mistake.
F*ck.
Why I slept with Leandra in the first place?
I felt nothing.
Not even the passion that she always gave me when we’re having s*x.
All night long, all I can think is Briana and her sad face that make me can’t enjoy the night with Leandra.
She knows and just smile because she didn’t care that I enjoy it or not, all she care is the feeling of having me in her bed.
Guilt.
I hate this feeling.
This is happen since Briana came.
F*CK!
“Thanks Vincent for the amazing night as always” Leandra whisper seductively when we reach the elevator and kiss my lips softly.
I used to wrap my arms on her when she kiss me this way but now I have no feeling whenever I felt her lips touching mine now.
“Call me?” She asked and I just nod when she jump into her car before turn around to my waiting car.
When I start driving my car, Briana face keep in my head.
How she looks beautiful with her long hair and that warm smile that she had which make my heart stop beating for a second.
‘If that wasn’t love, my boy, I don’t know what else you felt’
Love?
It can’t be love, I am Vincent Brancaccio never fell in love and do not know what is love.
*****
When I arrive in my parents mansion I was hoping to see Briana here, but sadly I can’t see her anywhere.
I thought she’s going to be with my mother in her special place in the garden so I am shock to see my mother alone.
“Mother, where’s everyone”
My mother’s turn her head and smile when I walk closer and give her a peck.
“Charlotte and Briana go shopping” She said and I nod.
“It’s quite late for shop don’t you think? Christmas is tomorrow” I said chuckled.
My mother nod “You’re right, I think they'll join Rhys and his friend for dinner too”
I frown and turn my head quickly.
“What?”
Rhys and his friends which mean the prick that always flirt with her is there too!
F*ck!
I leave my stun mother and quickly grab my car key before heading to whenever they having this stupid dinner.
I dial Charlotte number and curse when it head to the voice mail.
“Damn it, Char. Why don’t you pick up your phone?!”
Then I dial his husband number.
‘Vincent?’ He answer me, thank God.
“Where are you, Rhys?”
‘Huh?’
“I f*ckin’ ask, where the hell are you NOW!” I growl when jump into my car and quickly speeding up.
‘On the café in Sultan’
Shit! The Sultan?!
Aren’t those the place that I spend the night with Leandra?
SHIT!!!
F*CK!!! This isn't good!
I just hope no one see me there.
Or worse, Briana see me there with Leandra.
