Chapter: CHAPTER 8 Two weeks later, Keira was in police's custody, awaiting the court trial which was about a month away. The news of her being the prime suspect in Xander's murder had spread out like a wild fire. It was the top news in all the media houses and new channels in Boston."Son of A list business man and heir to the Williamson's empire, Xander Williamson, killed by his nineteen year old girlfriend, Keira Logan."That was the top search on the Internet. Both local and international news channels were anchoring updates on the case.Keira tried pleading not guilty, but it was invalid, especially after the gun whose bullets were found in Xander's body, was extracted from her belongings a few days after the arrest was made.She was bewildered and she blatantly denied ownership to the gun and swore she'd never used nor seen the gun before, but no one believed her.It was as if someone was working in the shadows, to get her in jail for a crime she'd not committed.She thought about gettin

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVEN Keira was dumbfounded and frazzled, it felt like her whole world was crashing down, right in front of her. No...it wasn't possible. This can't be true. They must be mistaken. There must've been a mistake somewhere. It wasn't her Xander they'd seen. It wasn't him. She was with him last night and of course, it wasn't in best situation, but he was there, alive and breathing. He told her to go home with Drew, that he needed some time alone. It isn't possible he would turn up dead just several hours later. She opened her mouth to say something, but no words could come out. She'd a lot of questions and arguments, but her brain couldn't fathom anything for her to say at that moment. She was completely dumbfounded. "Are you sure he was the one?" Elvira, who was still recovering from the shock, questioned no one in particular. "And why would you ever think it was Keira who was responsible for his death?" She queried them still, shocked they could think such of her. "Keira

Chapter: Chapter 6 Keira tried to free her arm from Xander's grasps, but it was mostly impossible as his grip on her was strong. However, the grip whatever he'd taken had on him, was way stronger."Xander, you can't do this to me. You're my friend, remember?" She tried talking sense into him, wriggling her arm and sobbing, but he was clouded by a thick fog of lust and alcohol, her pleas couldn't penetrate into."Xander...""Shut the fuck up and strip!" He roared authoritatively, pushing her against the rock. Keira winced in pain as her back came in contact with the hard rock.The environment was calm, dark and almost lonely, except for the sleeping ducks in the lake. They'd walked several yards away from the party spot, so if she cried, the possibility of anyone hearing her and coming to her rescue, was a five out of a hundred."Xander, please don't do this to me." She begged him relentlessly, her eyes clouded with tears as she fought him off.She couldn't allow him to do this to her. She co

Chapter: Chapter 5 Three months later, Keira has forgotten about the party incident with Andre and his friends. She moved on with her life, returning to her normal cycle; work, school, and home. She avoided Shakira and her cliques like a plague, shying away from every frivolous gathering Elvira invited her to, drowning herself in her academics and her work.Surprisingly, Xander dropped by the cafeteria where she was working two weeks later, with a copy of Tully and an apology note, apologizing for his and his friends I'll attitude towards her, during the frat party.She did try rejecting the book, but he was assertive and threatened to cause a scene if she doesn't accept his acknowledgment."I just want us to be friends. Platonic friends per se." He'd fessed with her when she queried his motives behind the sudden attention on her. "You're different from the other girls I've been with and very special too. I just want to be your friend and nothing more attached to it." He'd reassured her. Although

Chapter: Chapter 4 Keira traveled down the corridor, still shackled with the thoughts of what she'd done earlier.She'd called Andre sir and she bet he must've heard her. Everyone in the room must've heard her. Bet they are calling her all sorts of names now, laughing their guts out.She's never going back there. Not like anyone would notice her absence.They'll be too engrossed in their fun game or listening to Xander and Cole's tales about being cavalier playboys, to notice her absenteeism.They both should've passed out as twins, rather than Cole and Aiden. The latter is calmer, more elusive, and earmarked, while Cole, on the other hand, is wild and boisterous.Well, good for them. She was probably gonna stay out here and watch the wild orgies until it was time for them to go home.She located the bathroom exactly where Andre had directed her and she pushed the door open, only to be welcomed by a somber and gloomy room, devoid of light.Keira was confused, so stepped out to reassure her

Chapter: Chapter 3 The drive to the frat house was the longest twenty minutes of Keira's life. She has never felt more apprehensive and agitated in her entire life as she did during those twenty minutes.It was like a twenty-minute-long visit to hell, in a staring challenge with the devil. Xander, as Kimberly had introduced him, kept throwing her sinister glares from the rearview mirror and he pretended as if he was just meeting her for the very first time when he went ahead to ask her how Camden University was treating her.She couldn't tell if he was playing mind games with her or if he loathed her guts for laying hands on his friend, but didn't want to say anything yet.She was very uncomfortable and edgy, but neither Elvira nor Kimberly noticed because Xander was an expert player. Without any hassle, he played the nice and chivalrous gentleman to Elvira and Kimberly, while dishing her the deadliest glares, through the rearview mirror.She was more terrified about meeting Andre at the party.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S RUNAWAY MISTRESS
After escaping her adoptive father's creditor, the infamous Sebastian Bernadotte, Isabel Hadid opted to be a surrogate mother to an anonymous billionaire in desperate need of an heir, just to pay up the debt.
She conceived a pair of triplets and upon delivery, she maneuvered her way to have one of the children for herself, breaching the contract she'd signed.
Eight years later, Isabel has created a new identity for herself and her son, Reynolds.
However, fate had other plans for her, when her path crossed with Sebastian Bernadotte again, and she discovered that he was the anonymous billionaire whose son she'd stolen.
Seeing the striking resemblance between her son and the sons he'd left at home, Sebastian needed no Sherlock Holmes to deduce Isabel's foul play.
"Woman, you've breached our contract by taking my son and now, you'll pay. Either I take back my son and have you pay for infringement, or you accept to be my mistress."
Isabel was stuck between losing her son or becoming the mistress of the man she'd once despised.

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-NINE Several minutes later, Sebastian was spooning Isabel whose head was rested against his chest.They were still exhausted from their earlier intense and passionate lovemaking and their hearts were beating in a rhythm."I'm indeed the luckiest man on the planet." He told her, possessively tightening his arms around her petite form."Had anyone told me ten to fifteen years ago, that someday I will become obsessed over a woman and desperately want to make her mine, I would've called the person a goddamn liar."Isabel let out an exhausted, but satisfied sigh."But here I am, at thirty-five, obsessed over you and wanting nothing but to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm the luckiest man on earth.""Likewise me, Sebastian." She whispered to him,"Who could've known that I would end up getting married to the same man I once despised like my life depended on it. But, here I am.""I'm no believer of fate, or destiny, but I think the only explanation to our relationship is destiny. We were

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-EIGHT "What the hell are you talking about, Isabel?" Sebastian questioned her,"Why would you ask me to do that?""Because, I think it's the right thing to do, since we are both about to enter a new chapter of our lives." She explained to him.Now, it was her turn to beg him."I don't care about the both of them, Sebastian, but I do not think that I want us to have a life where we have people like them hovering over us." She continued, taking his other hand into hers."I understand that they must've wronged you in one way or the other, but I need you to let go of everything that happened. I do not want our children to be raised in this rivalry, which would mean passing it to their own children, who would also pass it to theirs, and the circle continues endlessly.""Isabel, what you are asking for is impossible. I owe no grudge against Shakira for what she did, but I don't think I would ever forgive Damien Giddorti for all he has done." He avowed to her,"Do you know what that bastard did

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-SEVEN"I want nothing to do with that son of a bitch who ruined my life." Joan spat, the second Sebastian made mention of Damien Giddorti's name."Trust me, Ms. Lively, I do not want anything to do with him too, but I need the bastard to face the consequences of his actions." He explained to her, "And I saw the file on the rape charge you raised against him three years ago. However, for some reason, which I believe he'd influenced, the charges were dropped."Joan scoffed, staring at her palms which she placed on the table."I know you must be wondering why I am interested in your case, or why I suddenly believe you after all these years. The truth is that, Damien Giddorti has always been a bastard, but recently, he thought it would be funny to assault my wife, to spite me." Sebastian continued, leaving both the scar-faced man and Joan bewildered."Yes. He tried to take advantage of her, despite knowing that she's mine and although I got him arrested, but he was bailed out because there was

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX After over an hour of driving around Manhattan, Sebastian and Moses finally found the address they were looking for."Sir, I think you should stay here, while I go in and find the apartment." Moses offered to the man, who was seated at the backseat, staring at him through the rearview mirror."You know what floor her apartment is on?""No, sir, but I will ask around.""Ask them what? You've no picture of her, nor do you know what her name is or what she look like."Moses did not say anything.Sebastian brought out the piece of paper he'd copied the information about the lady into, then he handed it to Moses."That is her name, phone number and address. Although, I do not suppose that the number is still active, because I can't seem to reach her with it."Moses took the paper from the man, stole a glance at it, before he shoved it into his pocket.While Sebastian waited in the car, he stepped down, then made his way towards the several storey apartment building.Once he entered, he

Sebastian, why are you doing this to me?" She mused, her eyes nearly blurring with tears as she paced to and fro their bedroom, praying for him to return homeThe boys have gone to school and she was alone, except for the employees scattered around the manor, Jarvis and Fowler included.After plenty minutes of random morbid thoughts, she decided to go call him and know what was delaying him.Hopefully, he would pick up and tell her that he was alright, and was on his way home.Who was she kidding?Her call was sent

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR Several minutes later, while Isabel was still in the car, she saw Sebastian ushering the triplets out of the elevator, while Brittany followed behind them.Seeing the confused expression on the boys' faces, made her heart ache.She pushed the door open, and jumped out of the car before Fowler could stop her and she ran to the boys."Mommy!" Reynolds shrieked the second he saw her running towards them, and he let go of Sebastian's hand immediately, running to catch up with her.Seeing that her sons were okay, filled Isabel with unexplainable relief.She hugged the boy, and even when Alexander and Oliver joined them, she gathered all three of them in her embrace, painting their faces with several kisses."Mommy, what happened?" Reynolds asked her, concern lacing his small voice after she has freed them from her embrace."What happened to our car?" Oliver pointed out, perplexed as he stared at the ruin on the car.Zachary immediately blocked the boy's view, while Sebastian replied to
