Two days later, the soft morning sunlight washed over the city as Thor and Celina drove to the doctor’s office. Thor was visibly tense, his fingers tapping restlessly on the steering wheel during the entire ride. No matter how hard he tried to appear calm, the anxiety was impossible to hide. This appointment meant a great deal to him—not just because it was part of the pregnancy checkups, but because it was the first time Celina would be seen by someone so deeply connected to his family.The doctor wasn’t just a physician; he was practically an honorary member of the Miller family. He had treated Thor since childhood, as well as other members of the family. He had been a friend of Thor’s grandfather and had witnessed every turbulent phase of the now-respected businessman’s youth. Thor trusted him like he trusted very few people in his life.“Baby, you’re way too nervous,” Celina teased, glancing sideways at him with a playful smile. “You look like you’re the one about to be examined.”

The night of the charity gala had finally arrived. It was a high-profile dinner, bringing together prominent figures of high society, media personalities, renowned doctors, and influential business leaders. Thor was one of the main sponsors, which only added to the event’s visibility. Celina, radiant in a golden gown that hugged her pregnant silhouette with elegant grace, walked in alongside Zoe and Arthur. As always, Zoe had a natural talent for turning any overly formal setting into something lighter—and far more entertaining.Thor, immaculate in a tailored suit, stood beside Celina while greeting various authorities. Zoe sat with Arthur at one of the reserved tables, whispering jokes about how charity events were basically “patience endurance tests.” When Thor and Celina returned to the table, Zoe wasted no time.“Celina, I swear, if I survive one more endless speech, I’m demanding a trophy for emotional resilience,” she muttered, making Arthur and Celina laugh.Meanwhile, the mode

Arthur and Zoe arrived at the mansion well past one in the morning. The moment Zoe stepped inside, she walked straight to the sofa, slipping off her heels with a dramatic sigh of relief.“I couldn’t wait to get these stilettos off,” she complained, massaging her bare feet on the soft carpet.Arthur came up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his chin on her shoulder with a playful smile.“And I couldn’t wait to get home so I could make out with you, babe,” he murmured against her ear, placing light kisses along her neck. “You were gorgeous tonight. Had me hypnotized the whole time.”She smiled and turned to him, pulling him into a burning kiss. Within seconds, Arthur scooped her up effortlessly, and she instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist.They kissed hungrily down the hallway until they reached the bedroom. Zoe tossed her little clutch onto the bed before Arthur gently laid her down.“I’m completely crazy about you, Zoe,” he confessed, eyes locked o

A week had passed, and Celina was completely immersed in her new book. Her days flowed with calm routine, yet somewhere inside, a quiet melancholy lingered—subtle but heavy. She had spoken with Emma a few times, exchanged messages with Tatiana and Roberto, who kept insisting that she and Thor visit them in Switzerland, and she had also talked to Gabriel. When she found out he was officially dating someone, she was overjoyed. Gabriel was an incredible person, someone who always put others first, and now it finally seemed like life was giving him a taste of the happiness he truly deserved.It was Friday. Celina had spent the whole week strangely introspective, even with Thor doing everything he could to make her smile. He remained patient, constant, loving. Now they were lying in bed, watching some random series. Thor had his arm around her, holding her close—until he noticed, silently, tears slipping down Celina’s face.He didn’t say anything right away. Instead, he gently stroked her

When she settled in, he slowly took off his shirt, his eyes locked on hers, then removed the rest of his clothes and stepped inside. He moved closer, sitting face-to-face with her.The warm water wrapped around them like a cocoon, and the stars above were the silent witnesses of that unforgettable night.The steam created an intimate, welcoming atmosphere. Thor gently caressed her belly, mesmerized by each subtle movement of their babies.“Do you have any idea how happy you make me? Seeing you like this, with our children growing inside you, is the best feeling in the world.”Celina smiled and touched his face.“I feel complete with you, Thor. I never imagined I could love like this.”Thor pulled her onto his lap and kissed her, this time with deeper intensity, his hands moving with steady tenderness down her back, making Celina feel wanted—worshipped.“You know I’m completely addicted to you, right?” he murmured in a husky voice against her ear.“I’m addicted to you too, baby.”He be
