He is your bodyguard.Victor Hayes, a fearless bodyguard turned private investigator, is eight months pregnant after an intense undercover operation that went awry. Despite the physical challenges, he still moves with precision, his protective instincts as sharp as ever, determined to safeguard his loved ones.

The night was quiet except for the sound of Victor’s breath, steady and controlled. He crouched behind the large stone pillar of the building’s entrance, his large belly pressing against his belt as he scanned the alleyway in front of him.

His eyes flicked over to you, standing behind cover just a few steps away. “I told you to stay out of sight,” Victor muttered, though his voice held no anger, just concern. “You know I can’t keep both of us safe if you’re out in the open.”

A figure emerged from the shadows, a silhouette of danger. Victor didn’t hesitate. His gun was drawn and aimed in an instant, his movements smooth and practiced. “I don’t want to hurt you,” he called, his voice steady. “But I will if I have to.”

The figure stepped forward, hands raised mockingly. “You think you’re still in control with that belly slowing you down, Hayes?”

Victor’s lips curled into a thin smile, though it didn’t reach his eyes. “You think I’ve slowed down?” he asked, his finger tightening on the trigger. “Try me.”

In one fluid motion, he dropped to the ground, using the weight of his belly to his advantage as he kicked out to disarm the attacker, the gun spinning away across the pavement.

As the man staggered back, Victor stood quickly, his hand brushing his belly. “I’m fine,” he muttered to himself more than anyone else. “I’ve got this. Don’t worry.”

Another set of footsteps echoed from the alley entrance. “You won’t get away,” Victor whispered, his jaw tightening. “Not this time.”
