After catching her fiancé in bed with her best friend, Sofia Jacobs walks away from everything, including her career, her city, and her life. Taking time to heal from the heartbreak, she travels to Los Angeles for peace and anonymity. What she doesn't expect is a steamy, impulsive rebound with none other than the city's most irresistible heartthrob, David Beckham. What was meant to be a fleeting distraction begins to spiral into something unexpected?....something neither of them saw coming. David is used to getting what he wants, and now, he wants Sofia. Badly. Her young son adores him, and David is pulling every romantic string to win her heart. But Sofia is guarded, scarred by the betrayal that shattered her world. She's not ready to believe in love again, especially not with a man whose past reads like a tabloid scandal. And David's past isn't done with him yet. Between a powerful father pushing him toward an arranged marriage with a British billionaire heiress, and secrets that could ruin everything, David finds himself fighting a battle on all sides. As Sofia and David grow closer, outside forces threaten to tear them apart and this time, love might not be enough. Just when they think they've finally found solid ground, one shocking revelation will leave Sofia questioning everything... What if the greatest heartbreak of all is still waiting ahead?

Chapter 1 Flash Back

Sofia's POV

His touches on my body were smoothing, just when I hadn't gotten enough of his hands, I felt his hand wrapped around my waist as he came closer for a passionate kiss. It was the most heated kiss I had ever enjoyed in my adult life.

I groaned slowly, making way for him to explore my mouth. He took me to cloud 9 where I had to beg for a moment to catch my breath.

But he continued which I honestly enjoyed. I mean, he couldn't have stopped anyway.

We moan, kiss, and explore each other's bodies. He gently raised me up and led me straight to his bedroom, but still, we didn't take a break from our intense kiss, not even a second. His lips moved easily in and out of mine, making me want to melt inside of him.

When we got to the room, he wasted no time. He turned me around and made me twist my waist a little while holding my waist firmly.

Soon after, he turned me back and continued the kisses. I didn't even know I was moving until my legs touched the bed frame. Then, he stopped and stepped back a little, admiring me before he began to pull his shirt off in a slow but sexy way.

"Omg! I almost melted by just watching him. I kept staring, from his sexy eyes, to his broad chest and then to his super cute tight abs. I couldn't just stand there and watch. I slowly walked over to his back, leaned my jaw on his shoulders and began to plant kisses on them. He twisted but closed his eyes. Then I began to caress his hot abs. But then, I couldn't stop. The more I touch him, the more I want to explore further.

He held my hands and slowly turned, smiled and began to plant a series of kisses on my lips and neck. His kisses and touches were tingling that I didn't know when I found myself on his bed.

He brought his hands down to my waist, gently touched my tats and went straight to my laps and without warning, put his hands into my dress.

"Oh! My..."

A gasp broke out of my lips as I felt his hands inside my dress. "Shh." He mumbled into my ears, before placing a soft kiss on my lips, continuously sucking on it like his life depended on it.

"I want more..." I could barely hear my whisper but he obeyed me, his lips started wandering on me, sending tingles through my whole body.

"Mama!" Jason's voice jerked me back to reality as I suddenly turned to look at him.

"You scared me, Jas." I ran a hand on my hair, trying to compose myself. Jason was also surprised to see me that way. He opened his chocolate filled mouth and thankfully he didn't ask what I feared he might ask.

"Sorry, mama. But can you help me open these cookies?" he said, handing me the cookie in his hands.

I sighed. Is that why he interrupted my sweet lil memory? "Come on, you can do it. You're not a kid."

"Mama! I'm still a baby. Just help me already." He giggled. It was then I realized that he deliberately drew my attention back. I took the cookie from him and opened it.

"Thank you, Mama."

"Welcome to London, Miss Jacob." The attendant bowed gently as I got out of the plane, almost pulling Jason behind me. "Welcome to London, little man. Hope you enjoyed your flight."

Jason nodded while trying to run off but I quickly grabbed him, stopping him in his tracks before he answered properly but frowned his face, " No! I did not, mama whimpered throughout the whole flight."

I felt embarrassed. This boy will not disgrace me. "Jas?"...he smiled without looking at my face as we walked through the airport lounge. Such a naughty boy.

However, I was pressed, but I didn't want to take him with me to the restroom. But I can't hold the pee for too long, so I had to warn Jason. I know how he can be.

"Jas, Mama is pressed. So, please sit here," I pointed at the plastic chair behind us. "I'll be back. Be a good boy and not talk to anyone you don't know. Behave okay?"

"I'll, mama!" he assured while staring back at me directly in the eyes. "But you have to bribe me." He said with an exaggerated expression.

"I'll make it up to you. Just behave well. Mama will be back in a giffy..." I roughened his hair and flashed a wild smile at him as I handed over his Ipad to him to keep him busy.

He barely looked at my face as he grabbed his pad away from my hand. "Easy, dude," he didn't even give me a glance. He continued to unlock the pad. I took a deep breath and turned in the direction of the restroom.

***********************************

I came back to London, the city that brought me so many memories to focus on my fashion designing career. I knew Jason didn't like it here. I mean a disc years old, leaving his friends behind. I understand him, but I guess there was no choice.

London has also been where I had lots of good and bad memories, but the main reason I left was because of the bad ones. That incident led to the birth of my beloved and smart son.

Exactly six years ago, I found the love of my life in bed with my best friend. It was a devastating experience. To get him off my mind, I got drunk and mistakenly had a one-night stand with the hottest and most eligible bachelor in town. David Beckham.

It was never planned, I just wanted to get my mind off the ache I was feeling. I didn't want to get involved with another man, not to talk of him. Feeling so embarrassed, I ran away before he could even know who I was.

A few weeks later, the nauseous feeling started, and I found I was pregnant. I knew it couldn't be for anyone but him. You didn't even need a DNA test to know that David is the father. Jason is his carbon copy.

At first, it was difficult, but now, I would never allow anyone to take my son away from me. It will really take a long fight. That boy is my life. Moreover, nobody knew that I slept with David. So, I get to have my son forever.

Thankfully, I came back to meet Jason, still seated in his seat and busy watching cartoons. I was impressed.

"Good....." he cut me off just when I was about to praise him. "Mama, look at those men, they look like men from the movie." Leo pointed in their direction. When I looked up, I saw a group of men in black suits and dark glasses walking out of the airport terminal. They were all walking in a particular style and mean expression.

However, it was not only the men in suits that fascinated me, but also one amongst them who seemed to be protected by the rest. He was tall, muscular, short black, and dangerously handsome.

"Omg!" I snorted, turning to talk to Jason but he wasn't there anymore. "Jas.." I called, but he didn't answer until I turned back and I saw him almost close to the men.

I followed him, yelling his name. "Jason!" he didn't stop after I took more steps. I recognized him. My one-night stand. Jason's father.

"Omg!" He was the least person I wanted to run into. And not even on my first day back to this place. Of course, I knew that was very much possible, but I had hoped I wouldn't see him again.

Immediately, I stopped walking. I didn't want him to recognize me too so I stood there and watched Jason hug his legs, causing him to stop.

"Hello, uncle." He said, releasing his legs and looking up at him. While David looked surprisingly down at him.

"You're so handsome and tall."

The other men glanced between David and Jason, utterly surprised. I understand their expression. Jason is the exact photocopy of his father.

Instead of just answering him, he smiled and bent to Jason's level. "You are so bold. Who are you with?" I could hear his sweet, gentle voice. I had never been able to get that voice out of my head since that night.

David stood up without waiting for Jason's answer and carried him in his arms making him smile and pointing in my direction, smirking. "That's Mama,"

I didn't know what to do. I felt like the ground should open so I could fall inside. At this point, if I had powers, I would have disappeared.

Everything suddenly went in slow motion as he looked in my direction. His brown eyes were locked in mine. Immediately, I felt a sensation run through my body.

Without wasting time, he walked towards me majestically. "No...no, please stay back." I pleaded in my mind. But he kept coming. So, I quickly brought out my glasses and put them on. I didn't want him to easily recognize me.

I hurriedly grabbed a nose mask from my bag and put it on. But then, he suspiciously looked at me before asking.

"Is this your mother?" he asked Jason. And he quickly nodded happily. Then he turned to me. "You look quite familiar. Do I know you?"

"Yes.. Oh..That's ridiculous.. No, this is my first time seeing you.." I stuttered..Avoiding looking at his eyes, I quickly stretched my hand and took Jason away from him, "I'm sorry for the inconvenience my son may have caused you." I apologized trying to wave off the tension but he didn't answer me. Just as I was about to turn, he said.

"I think we've met before."

"Wait! What?!"

The Truth About His Mistress

The Truth About His Mistress

Gavin
5.0

I was four months pregnant, a photographer excited for our future, attending a sophisticated baby brunch. Then I saw him, my husband Michael, with another woman, and a newborn introduced as "his son." My world shattered as a torrent of betrayal washed over me, magnified by Michael's dismissive claim I was "just being emotional." His mistress, Serena, taunted me, revealing Michael had discussed my pregnancy complications with her, then slapped me, causing a terrifying cramp. Michael sided with her, publicly shaming me, demanding I leave "their" party, as a society blog already paraded them as a "picture-perfect family." He fully expected me to return, to accept his double life, telling his friends I was "dramatic" but would "always come back." The audacity, the calculated cruelty of his deception, and Serena's chilling malice, fueled a cold, hard rage I barely recognized. How could I have been so blind, so trusting of the man who gaslighted me for months while building a second family? But on the plush carpet of that lawyer's office, as he turned his back on me, a new, unbreakable resolve solidified. They thought I was broken, disposable, easily manipulated – a "reasonable" wife who would accept a sham separation. They had no idea my calm acceptance was not surrender; it was strategy, a quiet promise to dismantle everything he held dear. I would not be handled; I would not understand; I would end this, and make sure their perfect family charade crumbled into dust.
