Jasmine

"Everything will be fine, Jasmine, because we are here for you. Your friends and I will never abandon you. We will help you raise your child." He tried to reassure me.

"What about Romano? Do I need to let him know about it?" I asked him and he let out a deep breath before responding.

"No, we shouldn't tell him about it, Jasmine. You should stand on your feet without him. He hurt you and he doesn't deserve you." He responded to me.

Kenneth is right, I won't let Romano know about his child because he is not worth it. He hurt my feelings and cheated on me. The anger I felt towards had worsened now that I am carrying his child.

"I am carrying that monster's child." I said in my grinning teeth. This is my fate now, I can't do anything to change my destiny. My destiny of being a broken Luna.

"Be strong, Jasmine and I am certain that you can surpass everything you are experiencing now. Your friends and I are right beside you." Kenneth said, his words made me feel at ease.

I lost my husband but at least I have his friend on my side and he will never abandon me in my difficult times. What Romano did to me was killing me but I should forget him and start my life with the child inside my womb. I touched my stomach while tears streaming down my eyes.

"I will raise the child even if Romano wasn't by my side." I said, Kenneth was still holding my hand and my other hand was caressing my stomach.

"I am here, Jasmine and I promise to be by your side while you raised your child." He said, I looked at him. I am so grateful, regardless of what happened in the past, he still chose to save me.

"Thank you for your kindness, Kenneth and I will forever be grateful that you came into my life." I said and he hugged me.

We reminisced about each other's embrace until he decided to release me. He helped me get up from the bed and I took a look at the surroundings. It was actually his house and I will be staying here with my friends. I am really nervous to tell my friends that I am pregnant.

Kenneth and I enjoyed our first day in Chicago. He left the next morning back to the Pack because he needed to go. I was left alone with his maids he employed for me. The thought of Romano is what came popping through my head. I can't forget our past and up till now my heart still aches because of what he did. He broke my heart, I am really angry with him. I am not sure if he will know about my situation. A fake smile curled up to my lips as I caressed my stomach, tears streamed down my face again with the thought that my child will be born without his father's love. Romano is my happiness and being far away from him is killing me but this is the time for me to forget him.

I am carrying a child now, I should only focus my attention towards my child. What I am sure of is that I will raise him/her in my own way without the father.

"All of them will pay for the pain and struggles I have gone through. I will never forget, I can't forgive Romano for what he did to me." I said to myself as I grit my teeth in anger. I can't believe that my twin sister could betray me. All this time, she was planning how to take my husband away from me. I took a deep breath thinking about them as I wiped the tears off my face. I stood up from the chair and was heading towards the corridor, my eyes widened when I saw my friends. They are here already, I couldn't explain the happiness I felt seeing them.

"Jasmine." The three of them called out my name as they ran towards me. I couldn't stop laughing when they all hugged me altogether.

"Girls,be careful. I am carrying a child." They let go of me when I said that.

"You are pregnant?" Nina asked.

"Yes, I am three weeks pregnant." I replied, I can't explain the reactions on their faces. I am sure that they weren't expecting it.

"Who is the father?" Khloe asked, I checked.

"Silly, Romano Kelvin is the father. Who do you think it will be?" Ciara replied to Khloe. I let out a deep breath before replying to them.

"I am so happy to see you here." I said to them, they all took a deep breath.

"We will stay here with you, Jasmine because we want to always be by your side especially now that you are pregnant but what is your plan now?" Khloe asked.

"Plan? I will raise my child alone because his father is a jerk demon. He hurts me and I will never tell him about the child." I said while gritting my teeth.

"What if he finds out? What if he wants you back, Jasmine? What will you do then?" Nina asked, it took me some minutes before responding to her.

"I don't know what will happen but I am certain that he will never want back his life. He is single and I am sure that he will make my twin sister his new Luna." I said, tears streamed down my face again. My friends hugged me, trying to comfort me.

"It is okay, Jasmine because whatever happens, we will always be by your side. We will not let him come back to your life again." Ciara said, her words made me smile. I know I can get through all these because my friends are here beside me. I can move on from Romano Kelvin.


******Three years on*****

Three years had passed since my husband and I separated but all the events were still fresh in my head. I can't still move on, Romano was still there in my heart and in my mind. Our son is three years old, he can speak now.

I was on the balcony of the house watching the sun rise. I have no work today since it is sunday, I will spend my time with my son.

"Mother!" A smile curved into my lips when I heard my son's voice. He ran towards me and hugged me. I picked him up as I kissed his forehead. He looks the same with his father, it can't be denied that Romano Kelvin is his father.

"How are you, my little prince?" I asked him, and he pouted his mouth.

"Daddy Kenneth wants to p…play with me." Although he can speak but not literally. My brows furrowed because of what he said.

"If daddy Kenneth wanted to play with you. So what is the problem?" I asked him, still kissing his face.

"I want you to….to play with us." He said, my face flushed because of what he just said.

He is always like this. His name is Clinton Philip. That name came into my head when he was still in my womb. He grew up knowing that he doesn't have a father. I wanted to hide it from him but I couldn't lie to him. I am grateful that he understood the situation and told me that Kenneth is his father. He calls me father even though he is aware that he is not his biological father. My heart aches thinking that my son will grow up without his father Romano on his side but such is life.

"Sure, my prince. I will play with you and daddy Kenneth. Let me change my clothes, okay?" I said to him, he smiled widely.

"Thank you, mother." He said and rushed out of my room. A smile curved into my lips watching my son. Tears streamed down my face as he ran out of my sight.

Three years have passed but his father is still in my heart. Romano is the man I love, the moon goddess knows how much I have tried to forget him but I couldn't. I still love him regardless of what he did to me.

"Come on, Jasmine. You should stop crying now." I murmured to myself as I forced myself to feel better and act like I am not hurting anymore.

This is not the time to cry because my son will notice it. I walked into the closet and changed my clothes. In just a few minutes, I was through and stepped out of the room. I saw my son playing happily with Kenneth in the corridor while my friends were sitting on the couch, laughing. I smiled seeing how happy all of them were. I am grateful that they are here to help me especially now that I am raising my son.

"Mother, come here!" Clinton screamed which made my friends turn their attention towards me. Kenneth and I stared at each other for a while, I smiled at him and he did the same.

"Yes, my prince." I replied as I went closer to them.
