Thank you for Helping me for this story. I truly appreciate it .

"The more hurt and pain you have gone thru in life, the stronger and more
beautiful your heart will be..."

"You're going to have to make up your mind."

Tanya put out a hand, turning Edward's face towards her.

"I told you I wouldn't pressure you," she said softly.

"I'm trying to be patient, but I have my limits."

She pressed her head against his forehead staring deeply in his eyes.

"If only that accident never happened then I would have been the mother of your children by now. I always blame myself "she said softly. He silenced her guilt with a kiss and held her tightly.

Fed up, Edward got off the bed to determine to let her know how he felt.

"Tanya, you make me so happy. I have loved you from the moment you came back to Emmet's house even though you were late. Thank you so much for the way that you love me, the way that you care about me and most of all for supporting me through everything. You really are my one and only. I am there for you, through the good and the bad. I will nurse you back to health when you're unwell, I will wipe your tears when you're unhappy. I would do anything for you. Please don't ask me to do this; I can't do it my love, please? "

"Stop". She commanded.

Something in her voice made him obey. She just looked at him and shook her head before she went to the balcony facing the flower garden. Her mind raced at the dreaded though of giving up the idea of having a baby. To her she simply didn't have a choice. Edward's family was curious as to why they haven't conceived. When the efforts to adopt a child failed, she decided to convince Edward that no matter what he thinks he has to this for the sake of their relationship.

After while, Edward followed her up to the balcony. Tanya was still gazing at the stars.

"You don't have a choice Ed". She stated

He stood there gazing upon the stars in the clear night sky and furiously asked

"Are you giving me an ultimatum, Tanya?"

She looked at him thoughtfully.

" I guess maybe I am."

She continued to keep her eyes off of him as she tried to calm herself.

He knew what she would have thought if he didn't decide to go with her plans. She would have left him. All because his family had pressured them to have children. He didn't know what to do; it was really hard for him to decide at the moment. Tanya was everything to him she was his life. But his family had gotten curious as to why they didn't try to have child after the 5 years following the accident.

Edward was thinking about how long it had been since Tanya has told him about the newspaper article. When he heard her say;

"Edward look, how lucky that woman would've been the one who was like me, but now has a child! The only difference is that the womb was of a different woman!"

"You mean a test tube baby?"

He looked at her.

"No, our family is too famous the test tube matter would never be a secret!"

He was lost in her eyes, and all of sudden he understood what she meant.

"You mean ..."

She lowered her voice so only Edward could hear now and she leaned in, close to his ear, adding,

"For your child I am ready to share your love with another woman!" she felt herself calm as she realized that what she said was true.

He came from his inner musings and slowly pulled Tanya in closer... She looked into his green eyes as he stared back in hers. There was a moment of silence as the two of them observed one another. His face was relaxed and settled into the beautiful image she had known so well.

"I will do it, love"

For a moment, she couldn't breathe.

She forced herself to straighten. "Oh, Edward, you're really going to do this for me."

He inhaled through his nose and smiled at her. He shook his head and shrugged before rubbing his neck.

"Yes, I will do it for you." he said in a low voice. She reached down to stroke his cheek .Her fingertips were feather flight as he turned his head to meet her gaze. She shivered at his touch, and at the intensity of his dark green eyes.

"Kiss me" She said in lower voice.

Lowering his head, he kissed her.

His lips sealed hers. She felt his arms around her, pulling her even closer, so close that his muscular body seemed to surround her on all sides. He felt and smelt like heaven. She was lost, lost in him.
