Chapter: 149. Next To You, Not In Front Of You♞ Adrian: It was late evening by the time I finally made it back home. I opened the door and stepped inside, rubbing a hand over my tired eyes as I kicked my shoes off in the living room and tugged at my tie, pulling it off before reaching for the buttons of my shirt. I unbuttoned the first and the second before stepping in fully, and the moment I did, my fingers stilled as I came to an abrupt stop at the sight of Rory in my living room. She stood up the moment I stepped inside, and the first thing I saw was her red-rimmed eyes, which were clouded with tears; her hair was disheveled. I pressed my fingers into my eyes and shook my head. For a breath, I thought I was hallucinating since I couldn't stop thinking about her for the past hours; that was until she finally spoke out. “Where have you been?” Her voice was barely audible. “I had to complete some things before coming home.” She nodded a little, but down on the lips, and asked, “Things like?” Instead of telling

Chapter: 148. Give Her Some Time♞Adrian:By the time sunlight peeped through the blinds, I pushed myself up from the chair and walked over to one of the cabinets in the office before grabbing a black long-sleeved shirt along with black pants and one of my ties.Closing the cabinet, a breath escaped my lips, and it was at that moment I noticed the dark circles under my eyes from the mirror on the cabinet.My tie was loosened, and my shirt was utterly wrinkled, and I looked absolutely as wretched as I felt at the moment.A deep sigh escaped my lips, and I looked away, walking into a door at the other end of the office.A while later, I stepped out, feeling more refreshed than I had the previous day.I tugged my shirt smooth before neatly knotting my tie in place.My phone vibrated on my table, and my brows creased into a frown as I grabbed it and checked the new message that got in, which was from Christian, and read:He agreed to the meeting. 9 AM. At a hotel, I'll send the address details in five.A minute later, h

Chapter: 147. Jail Cell ♞Adrian:I wasn't sure how many hours dragged past as I stood at the same place until Christian drove the car out.A lot went through my mind, but all I did was stare at nothing in particular.It wasn't until I heard the ping sound of a message on my phone break the silence that I finally moved, reaching out for it in my pocket.Christian’s name popped on the screen as I swiped, and I immediately tapped the new message he had sent.Christian: She’s home now.The moment I read the message, my legs finally moved, and I walked down the path straight to where my car was, tapping the dial button on Christian's number.It rang for barely up to two seconds before he answered.Stepping inside the car, I shut the door close and brushed my fingers through my hair, resting my head back before speaking, “She’s home alone?”“No. Trish was home already.”I bit down on my bottom lip and dragged a hand down my face before finally starting the engine of the car. “Alright.”For a long minute I didn't

Chapter: 146. Never Meant To Hurt You♛Aurora:By the time I stepped outside, Christian was already waiting for me, his back leaning against one of the two cars parked.I glanced around the deserted surroundings, trying to make sense of any place around, but none seemed familiar. Lucy had indeed gone far to make sure no one would be able to track me.My gaze fell on Christian, who stood straight the moment he saw me. His gaze darted back for a moment, and I didn't need to turn back fully to know Adrian was far behind me. Still standing at the entrance of the warehouse.Christian's gaze shifted back to me, and he nodded once before opening the door of the car and letting me in, shutting it behind me.The moment I slumped to the passenger seat, my head fell backwards, almost like I was trying to push back the tears threatening to spill out.A minute passed, and my mind drifted for a second. I glanced around once again, and when I didn't see Dan, Lucy, or anyone else at all but the three of us around here, my brows creased

Chapter: 145. Don't Touch Me ♛Aurora:The moment she said those words, Christian dragged her out, not giving her the chance to make things worse than they already were. But even after she had already left, the words she had spouted remained thick in the air.An unpleasant memory tugged at the back of my mind, pulling me back to the scene of me sitting and clutching my mother’s hands at the hospital, pleading with her to not leave me behind.All of a sudden, I forgot how to breathe properly.Adrian’s arms tightened around me, and his fingers subconsciously dug into my arms, like he was trying to hold himself together as much as he was trying to hold me. His sudden action gave me answers to questions I hadn’t even asked because I was scared of what the answers might be.The warmth I had felt from the closeness between us suddenly felt cold, and all I could perceive at that point was the heavy stench of petrol in the warehouse climbing my throat in an uncomfortable way instead of the solace the scent of his cologne

Chapter: 144. Drop Your Guns ♛ Aurora: John’s grip was too tight, turning me still. I tried to struggle and fight him off, but his grip only burned tighter. “Quit squirming, bitch.” He barked. The second the word left John’s mouth, I saw the shift in Adrian’s shoulders. His gaze held mine, and for a moment, it almost felt like he was trying to tell me something with his eyes, which darted towards where Christian and Lucy were before shifting up to John, who was behind me. I raised a brow, barely understanding what he meant. “Christian, release her. And drop your guns.” He suddenly said, surprising not just me but also Christian, Dan, and the other men in the room. “What—” Christian was about to say something, but one look at Adrian made him nod simply. Dan, who had been silent for a while, suddenly shifted on the floor as he suddenly reasoned, “What? If you release her, they’ll still have Ms. Aurora! They’ll have a hand against us.” But neither Adrian nor Christian paid attention to him; instead, Christ

One could tell with just a glance that Alice was indeed Eli’s mom.And at that moment, everything seemed to fall in place. No wonder she felt Eli's eyes seemed familiar. Her mind hadn't been playing tricks on her, and the nagging feeling that had prickled her skin the moment she saw Eli’s eyes was not just because his eyes were familiar to Alex’s eyes.It was because she had already thought of the possibility.A deep breath escaped her lips, and she tried to remain calm despite the feeling of nausea that suddenly climbed her throat.Sophia knew she had to speak or say something to cover the silence, but at that moment words failed her.

Chapter: 94. Eli's MomThe event slowly came to an end after Aiden and Eli had paired up and gotten a prize for winning an obstacle course with hurdle jumps. An announcement came over the loudspeaker, signaling the fair's final hour. And the last minutes of the event were supposed to be spent relaxing. Everyone was supposed to find a spot to sit around with their family. Families started gathering under trees, laying out blankets, and unpacking snacks. Sophia led the kids to a spot beneath a wide oak tree, the ground beneath covered in thick grass. They sat, wind-down tired but happy. Laughter still bubbled from Addie now and then she talked about Alex’s dramatic dunk tank fall and also how Aiden absolutely devoured every pie in the pie-eating contest despite rejecting the invitation to join at first. Aiden shrugged. “Well. It was a bit fun.” Anyone who knew Aiden would also know that what he said was a big compliment for the event and that he actually had fun.

Chapter: 93. Dunk Tanks And Glitter The afternoon drifted slowly, and there were a lot of events to keep every single one of them busy. They played game after game, darted between stalls, and collected an embarrassing number of prize tickets that no one quite knew what to do with. At one point, Alex found himself standing on a water tank, arms folded, glaring playfully down at the children and Sophia, who were quietly laughing at him. Beside him there were a couple of other fathers who were in the same situation. “Please tell me Addie would at least get the giant stuffed panda and that I didn’t just get soaked for nothing.” At the same time he said so, one of the volunteers in orange walked over to them and handed them a big white giant stuffed panda. “That throw was magnificent. Where did you learn that, Adeline?” The female volunteer asked. Addie smiled proudly, and her gaze darted to her father; they both shared a look, and then she said, “It’s a secret.” This made the young lady smile warmly. Sophia collect

Chapter: 92. Nice, My FootThe moment the boy noticed the people walking over in his direction, particularly Addie and Aiden, he was already scrambling to his feet, awkwardly brushing imaginary dust off his jeans, his eyes darting between the twins. Addie spun around with the kind of bright enthusiasm only she could pull off, her curls bouncing with the movement. “This is the new boy! He’s a transfer student. He came two weeks ago and sat near me during reading time!” Aiden crossed his arms and rolled his eyes dramatically. “You mean you stood up from your seat and marched over to his side.” “Well,” Addie huffed, placing her hands on her hips. “My point is we sat next to each other. Who went over to whom doesn’t really matter.” Aiden scoffed, clearly not impressed at all. His jaw tensed, and he glanced at the boy like he’d just been asked to shake hands with a lizard. He didn’t like him—and he wasn’t even trying to pretend. The way his sister was clinging to the new kid annoyed him and made him uncomfortab

Chapter: 91. The Fun Fair“What about the picnic basket? Please don’t tell me we forgot to pick that up from the kitchen counter.” Sophia cast a worried look in Alex’s direction, adjusting her sunglasses as the car continued moving, the light ahead turned green, and he eased them forward with one hand on the wheel and the other still resting on Sophia’s thigh, his thumb tracing circles against the seam of her jeans. Alex pressed a button, and the tinted glasses cracked open just slightly, enough to let in the sunlight, catching in the loose strands of her blond hair. Sophia was dressed in a light brown button-down, soft and loose, tucked just enough into her jeans to look put together. Her hair was tied back messily with one of her caramel-colored scrunchies. In fact, she made sure everybody was dressed in a little bit of something brown before they left the house. Addie had a light brown ribbon tied around her ponytails, bouncing with every excited movement. Aiden wore a simple beige-brown hoodie, sleeves p

Chapter: 90. Group Squish HugThe word was so soft, Sophia almost thought she imagined it.But the way Alex froze told her otherwise. He didn’t move, he didn’t even breathe, as if the world had stopped just for him.Then came a small smile. Unsure at first. But it grew, slow and full of something that made her throat tighten. He looked at Aiden like he was seeing him again for the very first time.“Hey, buddy,” Alex said, his deep voice too low, like speaking too loud might scare the moment away.Alex looked up finally, and their eyes met, and Sophia knew they both felt it.Aiden had called him Daddy.And it was so natural. It didn’t sound like he had forced himself to say it. It was just a soft, probably subconscious word that slipped out of his lips due to surprise.Alex didn’t say anything else. Though Sophia could see the way his fingers curled slightly at his side, like he was stopping himself from reaching out. His eyes stayed fixed on Aiden, blinking a little too fast.And then, just like that, the moment p

Chapter: EPILOGUEFOUR YEARS LATER*** Axel's mansion was lively with kids playing around as the sun shone its light across the fields. Amora and Arden who were now seven years old, they sat down in the garden with Mabel as they played on the grass in the garden. Amora and Mabel's hair was packed into two ponytails, Amora had taken her father's black shiny hair, while Arden's hair was brown, falling to his forehead and covering it. Mabel on the other hand, had taken her mother's blonde hair, the kids played around together, under the loving gazes of their fathers who sat down on chairs facing the kids. "Who would have thought my silent little Mabel would end up becoming a chaotic little princess" Troy sighed. "A silent nature doesn't even fit her, to begin with, her father is so noisy while her mother is cheerful, I think her new behavior stemmed from you both" Stephen chipped in as he sat beside Troy, sipping from the cup of wine in his hand and occasionally staring at where the ladies sat down c

Chapter: THE WEDDINGTHREE YEARS LATER*** The sun was shining brightly in the sky, casting a warm glow over the beautiful outdoor wedding venue. A road of white chairs was neatly arranged on either side of a grassy aisle, leading up to an elegant white archway adorned with delicate flowers of greenery. The soft staring of classical music filled the air. As the guests eagerly awaited the bride's arrival, Axel stood nervously at the end of the aisle, his heart racing as he prepared to see Mirabel for the first time in her wedding dress. Beside him stood a young boy who looked beyond stunning, with a calm aura around him, dressed in a miniature version of his father's tuxedo, standing proudly as one of the groomsmen. Stephen stood with Axel trying to claim his friend down, and beside him was Martin. And then, finally, they heard light footsteps as someone walked in, a young baby girl three years old, walked down the aisle with a small basket of flowers in her hand, her smile was so bright that the guest

"Hey! Quinn, how are you doing?" "Mira! I'm good, how's the baby?" Quinn asked, her words made Mirabel gently rub her baby bump and the baby respond with a kick, an action that the child does once in a while. "Fine," she said with a smile. "That's good.

"Ok, we'll make preparations for it" They talked for the next few minutes before the call came to an end.

His eyes widened when Charlotte brushed her thighs to his member who was already standing hard. He didn't need anyone to tell him that he had also been drugged, he just wasn't sure how it had happened.

Just when it seemed that all was lost, she stumbled and fell, her body hitting the pavement with a sickening thud.

Slowly, the lights in the hall began to brighten, and the crowd began to stir.

Chapter: 42. The Dark Elite EightDarren: Earlier the next day, I woke up and found myself laying on the cold floor of the bathroom. Squinting my eyes and letting out a low groan, I stood up and walked out of the bathroom as I heard a gentle knock from outside. My eyes fell on Cassius as I opened the door "Good morning, Sir" he greeted and I nodded. "Xander and the others have arrived. They are waiting for you downstairs" Cassius added and I rose a brow at him. "The others?" I asked, confused. I don't remember the others talking about dropping by, only Xander and I had somewhere to go to today. "Yes, they are all here," he said. "I'll be with them in a few minutes" With that, I shut the door and walked over to the closet, picking out a bathrobe, memories of what transpired last night came rushing into my thoughts. I walked into the bathroom, squatted down, and picked up the wrapped handkerchief on the floor, staring blankly at it for a while before walking back into the room and keeping it in one of the boxes in

Dark PastDarren: I stared down at my outstretched hand after she ran inside, my lips curved into a brief, menacing smile as I stood outside the moonlight's glow, the manor looming behind me silently. The trees swooshed and swished with every gust of wind that blew. The cold night air wrapped around me like an icy embrace, providing both solitude and unease to me, sending a shiver down my spine. But it was not just the chill that caused the hairs on my arms to stand on end; it was an undeniable itch, a deep-seated linking clawing at the core of my being, as my second personality tingled to be let out. The sound of the wind was relieving but it also held a primal allure, whispering promises of hidden secrets, untamed desires waiting to be unleashed as darkness carved its existence into my soul, desperately trying to pull in my calm regal to bring out a dark aura. My eyes glinted continuously, my fangs itched and I had to continuously graze my tongue along its sharp edges. Of course, I wasn

Why would you suddenly decide to come out?" he muttered, his eyes briefly raking over my body as if checking for any signs of harm, it lingered in my neck for a while before he glanced up. His dark abyssal eyes bore into my hazel eyes. "That too, as late as 11 PM" he continued, dismissing my question as he directed a curious gaze towards me.As my gaze shifted from the lifeless body of the guard sprawled on the floor, a surge of fear washed over me. This wasn't the first time he killed someone in my presence. Did he perhaps derive some sick pleasure from it? First the auctioneer and now the guard. What assurance did I have that he wouldn't do the same to me someday?Who knows. Maybe I'll be the next. He appeared completely unfazed about the fact that one of his guards lay dead on the floor with a fatal bullet wound piercing through his throat.

A sudden surge of determination washed over me as I made my way to the bathroom, splashing cold water on my face, each droplet awakening my senses.Rummaging through my closet, I selected a cozy sweater, symbolizing my intent to face the night on my terms.

I heard the sound of his belt, "Till tomorrow, sweetheart" he said, his voice low but firm for me to understand. "Tomorrow?" I asked, almost opening my eyes. "Yes, what do you expect? That I'll let you live here freely as a guest rather than a slave?" I gritted my teeth at his words. "Just take me back to the trafficker's house and request for a refund of your money. I don't want to stay here anymore" "Tsk... That's not possible dear, I don't return my goods after buying them, especially if this 'good' happens to be useful to me" he said.

My lips curved into a smile as I bit her lips, making her open her mouth while I slid my tongue in. "It's disgusting" she complained and I held back a chuckle. "Why do you think so?"
