Blue/Ava's POV"Why do you always wear a scarf whenever you leave to heal people?"A smiled as my four years old daughter asked curiously. She was eyeing me with her natural and round coffee eyes. Her cheeks are naturally pinkish. She's fair. Her hair was naturally curled and she's unbelievably taller than a normal four years old little girl. She's also smart and gorgeous.I unwrapped my scarf around my neck that's also covering my head. "Because…" I squatted in front of her and kissed her cheeks. "… Because I feel like granny is always with me whenever I'm wearing this scarf."Edward's grandmother died last year. She died naturally on the bed. It was painful because I treated her as my own grandmother. But we're okay now. As for Edward, he's still working in a construction company. Our life is simple. I'm already used to living in a province. Although I always dreamed of the faceless man, I'm trying to live in the present. I'm slowly letting go of my hope that I'm gonna remember my p
Blue/Ava’s POVI was washing the dishes when someone entered the kitchen and spoke. “Someone called me last night. He said he wants to bring his friend here.”I looked at Edward and smiled at him. “Who is it?”He shrugged his shoulders. “I forgot to ask. He seems like a normal patient from downtown. Are you free tomorrow? They’re coming tomorrow night.”I nodded at him. “Okay. Just look after Nicholai tomorrow night. Bring the patient to the bamboo house.”He went behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. I smiled as he rested his chin on my shoulder and kissed my cheek. “Are you really okay? Do you really like what you’re doing or you’re just doing this for my grandmother?”I squinted my eyes and faced him. “What do you take me for? Of course, I like what I’m doing. Actually, helping people in need is what I want.”He smiled and buried his face in my neck. “God! What did I do good to have an angel beside me?”I laughed at his remark and playfully pinched his side. We’re in that
Blue/Ava’s POV“N-Nicholas…” Theo called the scary man using that name which made me still. Nicholas? His name is Nicholas? I swallowed hard and was about to speak when the man named Nicholas rushed to me and hugged me tight.My eyes widened and I couldn’t move as he called me using a name that is strange to me… “Blue! Oh, God! Where have you been? I’ve been looking for you–”He was unable to finish his words when he suddenly lost consciousness. Just then, I realized Theo hit him causing him to pass out. My eyes widened as I looked at Theo. For some reason, I feel angry. “Why did you do that?”It’s painful.I know it is. He shouldn’t have done that. Why did he have to hurt him?He swallowed hard and stared at me. “He’s fine.”I looked at the man named Nicholas. Balthazar and Ricci are carrying him to the bedroom. My lips protrude while looking at his handsome face. He has facial hair. He looked so tired and sleepy. What happened to him?I fixed the scarf covering my face and bit my bot
Blue/Ava's POVHe was kissing me. He was nibbling, biting and licking my lips sensually. I feel so hot. His palms kneading my bre*sts are distracting me too. I tried to push him away to see his face but it's blurred. It was the same man."Ah!" I moaned out loud after I felt his fingers in my core, teasing me.I don't know him. But why does my body want him? Why does my body respond to him? Why do I like his kisses? Why do I feel hot, frustrated and sad at the same time?"Ha!" I sucked my breath and opened my eyes, the same time I woke up from that dream. I chewed my bottom lip as I felt the wetness between my legs.What is this? This is the first time that I dreamed about us doing that. Whenever I dreamed of that faceless man, it was always us, together, cuddling and laughing. But tonight, it was different. It's so different.I looked at Edward sleeping beside me. I feel so ashamed of myself. I never had any intimate encounter with Edward not because I want to, but because he wants us
Nicholas' POVI can't believe this! I can't take my eyes off of Nicholai. She was named Nicholai. She was named after me. Whether it is coincidental or what, I don't care anymore. I am so fcking happy today and nothing can't ruin this happiness. Blue cannot remember me, but seeing our daughter makes me so happy.It was already 5 AM. I was watching Blue watering the plants in her yard. My daughter, Nicholai is doing the same, carrying a small sprinkler. They looked so beautiful together. I can't help but smile while watching them. Finally, I found my babies."Young Lord—"I glared at Ricci. "Didn't I tell you to not call me that as long as we're here?"He bowed his head. "I apologize, Young—Sir Nicholas."I frowned. It's still the same. I just rolled my eyes and resumed staring at Blue and Nicholai. My smile came back.Ah! I think I'm becoming better. Although I sleepwalked again and Ricci found me trying to drive my car. Damn it! I dreamed of Blue and I was about to follow her, so I a
Blue/Ava's POVI ran away after I said Mr. Sanford's name. I don't know why he'e acting weird. Why does he want me to call him by his name? Why does it feel like I know him? Why does it feel like he's very familiar? And I don't know why my heart reacts to everything he says or does. This is confusing me. I want this feeling to stop but I can't shoo him away because I must admit, I feel at ease with the idea of having him around.This is crazy! How can I be attracted to someone I just met?"Mommy, can I watch TV?" My daughter's voice brought me back to reality. She was staring at my face. Innocence can be mirrored in her eyes.I looked at Nicholai and smiled at her. I nodded. "Yeah. Yes, baby."I turned the television on and caressed her cheek. She sat on the wooden sofa while I stared at her chubby face. I wonder if her father is still searching for us or if he's happy without us.Chewing my bottom lip, I swallowed the bitterness in my heart. I know, I said I don't wanna remember my p
Blue/Ava's POVEdward was caressing my back while I'm crying in his chest. He told me about him being transferred to another construction site in the city. Now, he doesn't have a choice but to go even when he refuses to his boss. It's not that I don't want him to go. It's a good opportunity. We can save enough money for our wedding and we can save money for Nicholai's education."Love, I will just resign." His voice was hoarse and sad.I shook my head as I lifted my face to look at him. "No! Why would you resign?""I don't wanna leave you and Nicholai here."I wiped my tears and stared at him. "I'm fine. We're fine here. Come on, love. This is a good opportunity for us."He frowned and buried his face in my neck. "I'll miss you, love. I'll miss you and Nicholai."We didn't have a choice. Edward left early in the morning the next day. Although he promised to visit us every Sunday, I still can't help but to cry as I watched him leave."I'll miss you daddy!" Nicholai cried while waving h
Nicholas' POV[You're manipulating them, Nicholas!]I clenched my jaws as my eyes sharpened. I don't know how Theo discovered what I did but I don't care. It has been done and I don't have any intention to take it back.[Did you know what you did, Nicholas? You used your power to send Edward Sandoval away. How could you play so dirty?]I laughed without humor. "Did you forget who I am, Theo? I am Nicholas Sanford. The ruthless Mafia Lord and Business Magnate. You can't expect me to sit down and watch him abuse my family."[You've become so obsessed with your power, Nicholas. He's not abusing them. He's taking care of them.]"Are you still my friend?" I growled angrily. Why is he taking that Sandoval's side? Fck![No! Are you still my friend, Nicholas? You've gone insane. You're not this selfish before.]I gritted my teeth and balled my fists. "I don't care! What I want is my family. I will do everything to have them back, Theo. If I have to sell my soul to the devil, I will do it. Eno
Nicholas’ POVI’ve been staring at my wife’s face for almost an hour now. My wife. A smile crept on my lips because of that one word that seemed so simple but meant a lot to me. I married her yesterday. Our marriage should’ve happened five years ago if she didn’t disappear and lost her memories but it’s fine. The time we spent apart didn’t go to waste anyway. In the end, she’s back in my arms. In the end, she’s still mine. It’s so fcking enchanting to reminisce about the past while staring at her face. Who would’ve thought that my father’s idea would work like this? I can’t blame him for choosing Blue. This woman has a lot of traits to impress everyone around her. This woman is fcking lovable and so damn lucky to have her as my wife. An angel who fell in love with a devil? I thought this would only work in romance books and movies but love is really magical, huh?“Daddy?”I kissed my wife’s forehead before opening the bedroom door for my daughter. Blue doesn’t want to leave Nicholai,
Blue’s POVWearing my elegant wedding dress, I’m standing nervously under the arch of the decoration. We’re having a garden wedding. I couldn’t see Nicholas from where I’m standing and it seems like adding to my nervousness. I’m feeling so many emotions. Fear, excitement, happiness, anticipation and everything I could’t name.I’m finally marrying Nicholas. I’ve been so lonely ever since my parents died. I’ve been so lonely and hopeless especially after Luke left me without a word. I thought I wouldn’t find someone who would love me. I thought I’m actually meant to be alone but fate has another plan. I was entangled with the rebellious son of a ruthless mafia lord. Nick Sanforf became the bridge who brought me to Nicholas. At first, I really found it unjust and ridiculous but now thinking about everything that happened, I must say everything was planned. Everything that happened was fated to happen.“Are you ready?”I lifted my face to see the organizer of the wedding. She’s smiling so
Blue's POV"I wanna kiss you all day, all night… forever…"I chewed my bottom lip. We're dancing beside our table here in an exclusive restaurant. He kept on whispering sweet words, making my heart flutter so much."You'll love my kisses that you won't be able to sleep without it."I hit his chest. "Stop it! It sounded like you're enchanting me."His lips twitched. "Are you enchanted?"I laughed again. "Just stop it, Nicholas.""Make me," he challenged and leaned closer.He chuckled and kissed the tip of my nose. "Get your lips ready. I'll make sure to make it swollen from my kisses after we get married."I frowned at him. "Are you challenging me?""Kinda. Why? You're challenged?"Chuckling, I pinched his side. He dodged and laughed. We're so comfortable with each other and I like it. Conversing with him like this makes my heart jump in happiness. I have finally found my soulmate.He stole a kiss from my lips and grinned. "What did you eat?"I frowned. "Huh?" I glanced at the table. "
Blue's POVI was staring at the wall. My mind was blank and my eyes were swollen. I cried all night after the doctor announced Edward's death. He was shot in his chest, straight to his lung. I want to hurt Laura but she's also lying on the morgue bed, cold and pale. I want to find someone to blame but I can only blame myself. It was all my fault. I caused his death.I swallowed hard and caressed my chest. The pain in my heart doesn't want to vanish. Losing Edward feels like losing the person who gave me another reason to live. It's so painful."Blue."I lifted my face only to see my old friend's face. Fiona, Ivy, Liza and Trevor. I smiled at them. "Hey!""Are you okay? Your husband is now stable. I checked him myself," Trevor asked and sat beside me.I nodded at him. "I'm fine. Thanks for checking on him.""Sunny told us about what really happened." It was Ivy, who caressed my shoulder.I held her hand. "Thank you for coming here, girls."After a short conversation with them, I went i
Blue's POVI gritted my teeth after I saw the real Laura escaping. She ran to the forest, carrying a gun. I was about to follow her when a hand grabbed my arm. A punch welcomed my face as I saw the fake Laura's grin. Nicholas was behind her. He couldn't move as he stared at the woman in front of me.I licked the blood off my lips and pushed the ground, supporting my weight to stand on my feet."Hi, Blue." She chuckled. "You'll pay for shooting me."I glanced at her wounded knee. I gritted my teeth and balled my fists. "I don't have time for you.""Oh uh! Would you rather leave your dear fiancée with me?"Laughing sarcastically, I stared at her. "You think I'm that stupid?"I lifted my arm holding a gun and pointed it at her forehead. She chuckled as she slowly faced Nicholas behind her. "Nicholas, would you let her shoot your mom?"Nicholas gasped. Fck! I pressed my lips together and stared at Nicholas. He slowly turned to me. He's having a hard time. He knew that the woman in front o
Blue's POV"Come on, Blue. Today is Nicholai's birthday. Let's celebrate this special day on a date. Let's have girls bonding."I stared at Mari and shook my head. "Mari, you know that I can't put Nicholai's life in danger. Laura's around, roaming. Promise, we'll take her out after all the mess."She frowned and nodded. "Fine! I just missed my baby princess."I pressed my lips together. She really cares for Nicholai and it's definitely because of Nicholas. Laura managed to get Nicholai's trust in Mari's character. I also figured that she won't really hurt Nicholai because she still wants Nicholas. I want to feel pity. I'm hurting for her, but I won't tolerate her. She've done so many mistakes. She've done crimes. She need to pay for her sins."Blue, are you okay?"I smiled bitterly. "I want all of these to end, Mari. I'm so tired to this chasing game. I just want Laura to pay for her sins. That's all I want."Mari stared into my eyes. An emotion crossed her eyes. Anger. Why didn’t I r
Blue's POV"You sacred the fck out of me!" Nicholas growled at Theo. We all are in the living area. After the explosion, Nicholas ran to check on the burning car, thinking Theo was inside, but Theo luckily survived. He said he went out of the car again because he forgot to give his gift to Nicholai. I was so thankful that he has an advance gift for my daughter, if not… I don't even wanna think about it."How did your car explode? I mean, you aren't that stupid not to notice a bomb. And my men are roaming around this area. It's so fcking impossible for Laura to come here," Nicholas added.Theo heaved a sigh. "I don't know, okay? I don't know. I'm still so fcking scared and shocked. I almost got toasted.""What is fcking?"My eyes widened after I heard Nicholai's voice. I thought I told Sunny to make her sleep again, but it turns out Sunny was the one who fell asleep.I heard Nicholas gasping. "Sweetheart, why are you still awake?"Nicholas carried his daughter and looked at me. Nichola
Blue's POV"Breakfast in bed."I looked at Nicholas who entered the room carrying a tray of food. My eyes squinted as I saw happiness in his eyes. Smile wasn't leaving his lips as he went to me full of energy.He sat on the bed. "I'm gonna feed you.""I'm not crippled, Nicholas."His smile didn't fade. "Just let me pamper you, please!""DADDY! MOMMY!" Nicholai suddenly entered the room. I covered my body with a blanket. I'm wearing Nicholas' t-shirt but nothing underneath.Nicholas faces his daughter with a sweet smile. He kissed Nicholai's cheeks. "Yes, sweetheart? Good morning."Nicholai kissed his cheek and mine. "Good morning, mommy. Good morning, daddy. Can I go to the mall with my pretty aunt?"I looked at Nicholas. The aunt pretty she’s calling is Sunny. She's already so fond of her aunt after just a few days of living here in Nick Sanford's mansion.Nicholas heaved a sigh. "Sweetheart, I'm afraid you can't roam around yet. Mommy and I have to prioritize your safety, so can you
Blue’s POVI received a death threat from Laura the next day. She’s so furious about what happened. She’s blaming me for Logan’s betrayal and accusing me of seducing him. I want to laugh at her reaction but I know better that she’ll plot revenge. She would do everything to ruin me and I opt not to underestimate her again. Laura is a smart woman. I have already proven that. She’s blinded by anger and envy, so she’ll do whatever it takes to bring me down. She’s just so unlucky that Logan happened to be my brother.“Don’t think too much.” Nicholas’ voice woke me up from my reverie. I smiled as he sat beside me and handed me a cup of coffee.“Thanks,” I said and looked at the night sky. We’re on the roof deck. I’m watching the starless sky. It seemed so calm and kinda making me nervous. There’s a rainbow after the rain, they say. But after a calm night, there’s a storm.“Laura can never hurt you again, Blue. I promise to protect you with all my heart and at the expense of my life.”Slowly
