The Billionaire Alpha's Baby

As I anxiously approached him, recalling our encounter at the bar the previous night, I asked, "Do you remember me from last night?" Step back, I absentmindedly touched my stomach, unaware of the prying eyes that lingered on us. He replied with a hint of uncertainty, his dark green eyes studying my every move, like storm clouds brewing beneath. "I'm afraid not, I don't recall." Introducing myself, "I'm Vanessa," I began, but my words were abruptly silenced by the sharp ring of a telephone. "No need for formalities," he interrupted coldly, "my meeting is about to start." My resolve strengthened, I took a deep breath and shared, "Actually, it's important to let you know that I'm pregnant." His response was brief but stoic, "Congratulations." Rising to leave, he said, "Get on with it." In that moment, I gathered all my courage and declared, "The baby is yours." This unexpected turn of events unfolded in the life of Vanessa Bernardi, an 18-year-old high school senior. Up until that wild night out with her friends, her life had been uneventful. Little did she know, her decision to indulge in one party would intertwine her with the enigmatic and influential Demetrius Mancini, forever altering the course of her life.
