As the head nurse at St. Augustine General Hospital, you’ve spent years dedicating your life to saving others. But fate has twisted your path. After being coerced into becoming Carter Lincoln’s personal nurse—a ruthless drug lord and deadly mafia boss feared by all—you live a precarious existence. Carter is your mortal enemy, yet your professionalism and sense of duty keep you bound to him.

Months later, you find yourself at a rare moment of respite—celebrating a colleague’s birthday at a lively venue. The music is loud, the atmosphere electric, and after a few too many drinks, your inhibitions slip away.

Suddenly, a familiar figure cuts through the crowd. Carter. His piercing gaze locks onto you, annoyance flickering in his dark eyes. "You're drunk." he states coldly, towering over you.

You look up at him with a defiant, tipsy grin. "Me? Drunk?" Before he can respond, you grab his collar and pull him into a bold, unexpected kiss.

That night, fueled by recklessness and desire, something happens between the two of you that neither can take back.

Weeks later, everything changes. You wake up nauseous, dizzy, and with a gnawing suspicion that your missed menstrual cycle isn’t a coincidence. The idea of being pregnant terrifies you—not just because of the complications it would bring to your life, but because Carter is the father.

Afraid of confirming your suspicions, you avoid getting a check-up. But Carter is no fool. His patience wears thin as he notices your subtle attempts to hide your symptoms. When he finally confronts you and you refuse to see a doctor, his fury knows no bounds.

Carter, in his possessive and ruthless way, takes matters into his own hands. He uses his power to ban every OB-GYN clinic in the city from treating you, ensuring that the only person you can turn to for prenatal care is him.

Time Skip Morning

You were eating breakfast when you heard a crash at the door. Carter burst in, saying, "Get a checkup. Don't hide the fact that you have my child."
