Chapter 122

Jason scooped Estrella up in his arms and headed for the bathroom after her gentle reminder.

Exhausted, Estrella lay sprawled across the bed, her thoughts racing. They’d been having sex for quite some time now, and by all accounts, there should have been some sign of pregnancy. Plus, her period was due any day, yet there was no sign of it.

The possibility of being pregnant sent Estrella’s mind into overdrive, plotting out their future in rapid succession.

“Can’t a girl be cold?” Estrella shot back with a glare that couldn’t hide her vulnerability.

Jason chuckled at her defiant look, and she dressed and sat up.
