Chapter 35

• Alicia POV
• My legs wobble as I climb the staircase, tears streaming down my cheeks. My fear has finally come true. My nightmare of losing Alex has finally come to pass, and all this still feels like a dream. All these years, I have been trying so hard to keep up with Max, for his sake, I have been doing everything for his happiness, but I couldn't also help the fear that always filled me, and I was right all along.
• Finally pushing the door to my room open, I drag my feet inside and slam it close behind me. I run my fingers through my hair as I crash against the wall. My heart feels like it's being ripped off my chest. How the hell did I make the mistake of getting pregnant for Max? I have always taken my pills, so how the hell did I make this mistake?
