Blue/Ava's POVI was about to leave the grocery store when the rain started pouring heavily. I bit my bottom lip as I glanced at my umbrella. I won't get wet, but the groceries will. I sighed heavily and watched the people running around, looking for a place to shelter.I saw a taxi coming, I called it but someone got in first, making me groan. Argh!Frowning, I patiently waited for another taxi when an unfamiliar car stopped in front of me. I'm not familiar with luxury cars but this gray car in front of me is definitely a Jaguar. The window rolled down and my lips parted upon seeing a familiar pair of dark orbs."Get in."I blinked thrice, shocked. "Huh?"His jaw clenched. He got out of the car and ran to me, ignoring the heavy rain which made me annoyed."I told you to get in—Ouch!"He groaned and looked at me with his widened eyes after I hit his arm with my umbrella."Why did you do that?""You were sick yesterday. You left early in the morning and now, you're letting yourself get
Nicholas' POV"Kiss me, Nicholas…"My jaw dropped. Her words kept on ringing in my head and it's making me feel so hot. I swallowed hard as I stared at her pouting lips. She clung on my nape and pulled me down, trying to kiss me.I pressed my lips together and sucked my breath. My chest is moving up and down rapidly because of what she's doing. She can't remember me and she's drunk. I don't wanna take advantage of her but for God's sake, I'm tempted. Why is this woman testing my patience?I gritted my teeth and carried her. I put her on the bed and pinned her down. I stared at her drunk eyes. "Stop it. You don't know what you're saying."She bit her bottom lip. She did it naturally but it looked so sensual to me. Argh!Her lips parted. My body is becoming weak, so I didn't realize that I'm not holding her hand anymore.My eyes widened when she grabbed my hand and put them between her legs. I sucked my breath again as I felt my ears and neck getting hot. She's… wet.What the f…"I-I fe
Blue/Ava's POVI cupped my head after my heart hurt. A swift glimpse of a memory crossed my mind. It was me and another person. He's old. He's in a suit and he's holding a gun. I swallowed hard. I didn't see his face properly but I felt fear consumed my whole system upon remembering that man. Who is he?"Are you okay?"I flinched and looked at Nicholas. He just came back. He went to buy something before we went home.I shook my head. "It's nothing. I'm fine."He nodded and leaned towards me. Due to my reflexes, I pushed him back. My eyes widened. "W-What are you gonna do?"He heaved a sigh and lifted something. "I'm gonna put a concealer on your neck. Unless, you want your so-called love to see your hickeys."My cheeks heated because of what he said. I put my hands on my lap and allowed him to do what he wanted. My heart is pounding so hard while he's covering his kiss marks on my neck. Why did he even put those kiss marks—bite marks, rather. He bit me last night. What is he? A vampir
Blue/Ava's POVThis is my new life. I have to forget about my past and live the new life that was given to me. I should only look at Edward and take care of Nicholai. I don't want another burden as living without memories of who I am is already a burden. My doctor warned me that there might be no chance for me to get my memories back, so I should live in the present.But… I chewed my bottom lip. But why does walking away from Nicholas break my heart? Nicholas is part of my past, I have confirmed that based on my reactions whenever he's near. But there's Edward in my life now and it's only made our situation more complicated.I want to look back. I want to see his face. His reaction, but I shouldn't. I went back inside the house and lay beside Edward. He's leaving again tomorrow. He said he just escaped from his boss because he's worried about me and Nicholai. This man. He saved me before. This man gave me a new life. This man made me happy for the past years. I can't just hurt him jus
Nicholas' POVI kept on pulling my hair while walking back and forth. Blue is inside the emergency room and I don't know what to do. I regret what I did. I regret letting my emotions win over me. I was again stupid.A cold palm slapped my face as soon as I turned around again. Blue's friend was looking at me with hatred. Her eyes are full of pain and fear."Who are you, Nicholas Sanford? Why are you messing with Ava?"I gritted my teeth. "You won't want to know, lady.""You are so arrogant!" She screamed. "How could you do this to Ava? What happened to her? Why did she pass out?"I figured she knows nothing about Blue's situation. The woman inside the Emergency Room is not Ava. She's named Blue and she's my fiancée.I clenched my jaws as she cried harder in her palms before looking at me again. ''If something bad happens to Ava, I'm gonna sue you!"I felt my heart ache. "If something b-bad happens to her, I'll kill myself."She stared at me, shocked.I balled my fists. "Don't speak li
Nicholas' POV"This isn't the time to slack off, Nicholas. Get up and we're going to meet Logan Smith!"I rolled on the bed, ignoring Theo's rants. For God's sake, my head is still aching. I drank till I passed out last night because of Blue. I left right after she got discharged from the hospital. I don't wanna mess with her head again. I will let her remember me on her own. Even if I have to wait for another five years, I'll wait willingly. I don't wanna see her crying and screaming in my arms again."Nicholas!"I groaned. "Just kill each and every one of them. I don't fcking care about them. Tell my men to bring the Phoenixes down. I want all of them dead by the time I get off this bed.""Damn you, Nicholas! Violence isn't always the answer!""But that's my goddamn answer. Now leave or I'll fcking turn this whole building upside down.""I will burn your cars, Nicholas."My eyes widened and I immediately sat on the bed. I'm half naked, only wearing my boxers.I stared at the 22 year
Nicholas' POVI was watching Sunny as she excitedly packed her clothes. She's very excited to see her sister. She prepared two large luggages for her clothes as if she's not going back here anymore.I pressed my lips together as I remembered my conversation with Logan Smith two weeks ago. I don't know why he wanted Sunny, but it's making me feel so scared. I treated Sunny as my own younger sister. I can't lose another family."Something is missing. What do you think it is?"Clenching my jaws, I stared at the face that reminded me of Blue. She was watching me as if waiting for something."Brother!"That's when I came back to my senses. I blinked and rose from her bed. "Are you done? Let's go?"She frowned. "You're not in your usual self, Nicholas. What is it that's bothering you again? You've been acting strange since two weeks ago."I shook my head and heaved a sigh, trying to ignore her curiosity. "I'm fine. I just miss your sister and our daughter."Her jaw dropped. "DAUGHTER?"I co
Blue/Ava's POV"I'm sorry… I'm sorry for failing you once."I bit my bottom lip as I felt tears pooling in the corner of my eyes. He was hugging me so tight as if he's afraid to let me go. I can feel his pain. I can feel his regrets. His fear. I don't want him to feel this. Seeing him cry breaks my heart.I swallowed hard. "D-Don't fail me twice, Nicholas. Tell me the truth. I want to know why my heart yearns for you. I want to know why I don't remember us."He pulled away and stared into my eyes. "The doctor said it's not good to force yourself."I shook my head. "I'm not forcing myself, Nicholas. Just tell it slowly. Slowly make me remember my past."His eyes flickered with pain and worries. "But…""Do I have to use Nicholai to make you do what I want?"He squeezed his eyes closed. I can see he's torn between my safety and Nicholai. He looked at me again and swallowed hard. He cupped my face gently. "I'm not losing you again, baby. Let's do this slowly, okay? I'll remind you about o
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
