last update Last Updated: 2024-06-11 18:06:22

Zion’s POV

“Hello!” I couldn’t help the wild thumping in my heart as I waited to hear Andrea’s apology. I could send her the tickets and ask Killian to bring them over with him!

“Dad? It’s me, Zayden. How are you? I’m missing you.” My little boy’s sweet voice brought me to my senses. The way he was whispering, it was clear they were calling me in Andrea’s absence.

“Hey, buddy! I miss all of you very much. I wish I could come over to get you, but I have broken my bones from the car accident. It’ll take me almost two months to heal!” A gasp escaped Zayden. It was obvious they had no idea about my accident.

“Oh, I’m sorry I can’t help you when you need me, Dad.” I could feel his grief as he tried to choke back the helpless tears.

“Hey, it’s okay buddy. I have hired help to look after me. Just keep calling me and I’ll get better soon. So how are you and Adrian?”

“Addy is here. He wants to talk to you, Dad. Hurry, Mom will come for her phone any minute.” He passed the phone to Adrian

    Zion’s POV The next few days, my defense case received a setback as Mr. Dimakos battled for his life in the hospital. Although the police nabbed the car, the driver was absconding.

    Andrea’s POVI waited patiently for his declaration of love. My last message was enough to instigate anyone to confess, but maybe not Zion Concorde. I didn’t care if Sebastián loved me! All I cared for were Zion’s feelings for me. If he loved me, why couldn’t he confess? Didn’t he know how much I was dying every day waiting to hear him say those three little magical words to me? Was it so difficult to say, I love you, Andrea? Please come back to me! I want an actual relationship with you! When Sebastián could say it every day, why couldn’t Zion say it even once in the last seventeen years? I waited in vain. There was utter silence from the other side. Zion didn’t reply at all. Tears pooled in my eyes as I lay on the bed to spend another lonely night. Ever since I left Athens on the spur of the moment, I had been dying of guilt. The wish to fly to Zion and take care of him was so strong, it took all my willpower to restrain the urge. Under the circumstances, Sebastián had become a

    Zion’s POV A Month Later I was well prepared as I headed to the court for my hearing. With heavy police protection, Eros and I walked in with Mr. Petridis and his team. Our defense was strong, and I knew I would be acquitted. After twenty minutes, just as I had expected, the magistrate accepted the evidence and acquitted me. I was now a free citizen, acquitted of the murder charge I hadn’t committed. There was a country-wide alert issued for the capture and arrest of the real culprits, Delia Kayakos and her mafia family! The moment I emerged from the court, the reporters flocked to me. Thankfully, they left me after a brief interview. With the property case hearing scheduled ten days later, I left for my office, escorted by four bodyguards. Mr. Petridis recommended to me an excellent attorney who would fight for my inheritance. I had no proof before, but now I did. The case was uncomplicated and I would surely get back everything. Eros came over in the evening on his way home. He

I knew what he wanted, and I wasn’t entertaining his wish to return home early and gear up for my engagement party. Did I ask for an engagement party? I only agreed to get engaged to Sebastián on one condition. Knox would have to invite Zion over to my engagement ceremony! My heart skipped a beat at the thought. I had to challenge Zion to keep his promise to come over and abduct me! It was the only reason I had agreed to this engagement. It was the only way to get Zion here. I had it all planned out. This time, I would make him confess in front of all! Excitement coursed through me at the thought of seeing him again. I hardly thought about what I would do if he didn’t come over. No, he had to come here and get me. I was sure he wouldn’t let me get engaged to someone else. However, instead of a small ceremony with the family, Knox arranged for a mega event, inviting peopl

I don’t remember having invited you,” gritted out Sebastián while Zion and I were engaged in a staring contest. “I don’t need an invitation, Conrad. I’m here for my family.” Not once did his attention deviate from me, as if he had expected me to retaliate. The twins clung to him and he held them close. “Dad! I’m so happy to see you,” said Zayden, clinging to his leg. “Me too. Dad, let’s go,” said Adrian, clinging to the other leg. “Andrea, let’s go,” said Zion, grabbing my hand. Sebastián panicked, and the others rushed towards us, noticing the commotion. “She isn’t going anywhere with you, Concorde. It’s our engagement today! Leave right now or I’ll call the cops.” Sebastián pushed Zion, trying to extricate my hand from his hold. “Stop, Sebastián. Let me handle this, please.” I wanted Zion to confess before I left with him. How did he expect me to just leave and be his fake fiancée all my life? “How will you handle it?

    Andrea’s POV He didn’t reply, but smirked instead. Afterwards, I hardly got a chance to talk to him. We boarded Zion’s private jet three hours later, ready to fly home. A sense of completeness engulfed me after years of upheaval. I felt like I was finally going home with my boys. I sat down, feeling lethargic after succeeding in my mission. The twins were still bursting with energy, although it was well past their bedtime. I let them enjoy with their father. “Wow! Is this jet yours, dad?” asked Adrian, inspecting every nook and corner with Zion. “Yes, but now it’s ours.” He glanced in my direction, and I smiled at him, watching him interact with the twins. We really looked like a happy family! At that moment when our eyes connected, I felt the sparks of electric charge get transmitted between us. I was dying to feel his lips on mine after his heartfelt confession! I knew he did too, his gaze sweeping over me briefly. “Did you make this, dad?” asked Zayden, running his fingers ove

    Andrea’s POV “I don’t fear punishments, Mr. Concorde!” He raised his eyebrow, giving me an amused look, closing the distance between us. My breath hitched when he captured the back of my head again, all the while holding my gaze. I was under his spell, unable to move even an inch. Not that I wanted to. I wanted to feel his lips on mine! It had been so long since we kissed! “Is that so? Let’s find out, Ms. Cromwell!” The smell of his faint, lime and spice cologne stirred my whole body with desire. He tilted my head backward, exposing my throat. His soft, warm lips grazed along the skin, making my insides clench more with need. “Ready, love?” Before I could respond, he traced his tongue up along my chin to hover over my lips. A gush of liquid heat erupted, and I was dripping wet already for his touch. It was the same as that fateful night, five years ago when I conceived the twins. Only this time it was more heartfelt and full of longing!I didn’t need to answer him. He knew I was r

    Zion’s POV A phone call from my lawyer brought me back to reality. I remembered my shitty life and the threats looming over my head. With the court case coming up, I had to strengthen my allegations against Delia. I knew what that entailed. It was a tremendous battle against Delia and her mafia family. They could do anything for money. I walked out of the kids’ room and accepted the call. “Yes, Mr. Dimitri, I just returned. I would surely have got in touch with you soon.”“I’m sorry to bother you now, Mr. Concorde, but an emergency has cropped up. The Interpol had arrested Ms. Delia Kayakos from her hideout in Chicago last night. They’ve brought her back to Athens, but she has attempted suicide by consuming a bottle of sleeping pills.” I wasn’t surprised at all. Ever since my win at the last hearing, she knew her game was up. Soon I would prove that she had illegally confiscated assets from us. Her involvement in Mr. Alesci’s murder and my murder attempt has already been proved. “O

    Andrea’s POV There was excitement in the air as we drove down to Zion’s beachside villa in the Athenian Riviera. The twins and their pups couldn’t contain their exuberance. The prospect of meeting Zane and Angel after so long excited them beyond words. My pregnancy hormones had settled down and, apart from a little fatigue, I had no other symptoms of the first trimester. Zion took good care of me and employed lots of help to organize our dream wedding. Despite the short notice, I wasn’t stressed at all. Our event coordinator, Ms. Pappas, was extremely efficient and handled everything well. My wedding dress was perfect, just the way I wanted, and so was the decor. Despite my hectic work schedule, she completed every task effortlessly. Ever since she took over, even Zion could relax a lot. “Mom, when will Zane and Angel come over? Tomorrow?” asked Adrian hopefully. “No, after two days.” “Why can’t they come tomorrow? We’ll be bored,” said Zayden. “There’s so much to do, you won’t

    Andrea’s POV The next morning, Zion took me to the gynecologist for a proper checkup. We found out I was two months pregnant! “How can that be possible when I felt no symptoms of pregnancy?” “Sometimes the only symptom is the missed monthly cycle. Since you have an irregular cycle, you might not have realized it. There might be subtle signs that you didn’t notice.” I nodded, agreeing with the doctor. “Yes, I had been a little preoccupied with work!” “It’s quite normal not to have symptoms. Don’t worry, the fetus is growing well. Follow the diet chart and folic acid supplements and you’ll be fine.” Zion released a sigh of relief and insisted I took the day off. With the twins at school and Zion at work, I was bored all morning. A call from Grandpa Vincent brought a smile to my lips. “So, how is everything going?” I smiled, knowing what he wanted to know. He wanted to know when we were planning our wedding! “Everything is fabulous here, Grandpa. The twins have settled down at s

    Andrea’s POV The music slowed to a romantic number, and the twins walked away to watch a lighthouse near the coast. I wrapped my arms around Zion’s shoulders and swayed to the music. The temperatures had dipped after sunset, but the heat radiating from his body kept me warm. “This is what I wanted!” he whispered, planting a kiss on my neck as we caught a moment with one another. We were the only couple dancing on the deck. Anacá escaped Eros the moment the romantic music started. Although I was curious about what was going on between them, I kept mum. “This is the best part of the day!” I admitted, resting my head on his shoulders. His arm around me drew me closer, and it felt like bliss. The mesmerizing location, the gentle movement of the yacht as it cut across the bay, surging ahead, the moonlight above and the sparkling lights all around heightened my emotions. The day’s exhaustion diminished a little, and I felt better. “No, the best part is yet to come!” I looked up to see

    Zion’s POV The entire week, I was busy planning our getaway to the Schinias Bay area on the eastern shores of Athens. I had been there almost twenty-five years ago when my mom was alive. The place was secluded then, but Eros informed me about the development of snorkeling activities around Nea Makri and the hidden bays of the Marathon Cape Area. He wanted to accompany us with Anacá, and Andrea willingly agreed. I didn’t mind too, as he was more knowledgeable than I was. “Are we going to the beach with Blaze, Chase, and their mom?” gasped Zayden in disbelief. Anacá’s pet golden retriever, Lucy, their mom, would obviously accompany us too since she never went out without her pet. “Yes, Uncle Eros and Aunt Anacá will accompany us also!” I added, making them grin. “I love the plan. You’re the coolest dad!” said Adrian. “I’m glad, buddy! Now help your mom pack up!” They rushed to the kitchen to force Andrea to pack while I smiled at their enthusiasm.Despite living in LA, it was surpr

    Andrea’s POV Zion helped to expedite the shifting of Ratio Architects to Athens in twenty days. With his experience, the move happened so smoothly; I was impressed. “Mr. Lazarus will educate you about the work permits and visa process. I’ll see you at lunch.” I smiled, but couldn’t thank him for his efforts in front of his lawyer. After Zion left, I was extremely busy with the visa process. Afterward, I had a meeting with Mr. Aetos, the GM of ZC Architects, followed by a meeting with Mr. Barlos, the GM of Conrad. With both companies doing well, I was still considering a merger for ease of operation. I would have to consult Zion before making a final decision. My new PA, Cora Adamis, was an intern and fumbled with the work. As such, I missed my efficient PA, Roberta, back in LA. It was just a matter of a month. She would be here to handle my schedule like before. I couldn’t wait to connect with my old team of Ratio! We had grown into a family! Cora came in and handed me the folder

    Andrea’s POV The next morning, I was in the brightest of spirits, eager to go to the twins’ school and then to the office. The twins were more excited than I was at the prospect of being alone at home. With their charm, they had Jenna and Melinda dancing to their tunes in such a brief span of time. Their pets were no less, and I panicked at the thought of the mayhem the quartet would create at home. “Don’t worry about them. It’s just a matter of a few days. When their school starts, they would need to leave with us.” I nodded, and we soon left. Zion’s eyes swept over the entire length of me and I blushed at his lust-filled scrutiny. I was still getting adjusted to this horny side of his nature that he had effectively kept hidden from me for so long. How? I had no idea!“Did you have to wear that skirt? I’m getting an erection just at the sight of you!” he chuckled as he drove on. I rolled my eyes at him, glancing down to check the bulge growing at an alarming rate. “Tomorrow onwar

    Andrea’s POV I tucked the twins into bed and walked out of the room, only to find Blaze and Chase following me out as well. “Where do you think you’re going? It’s sleepy time for you too. Go, sleep!” They trotted off to their cots, disappointed that their playtime was over.At last, I heaved a sigh of relief and walked over to our bedroom, where Zion had been waiting for me for over an hour. Surely, he would be annoyed with me. I wondered what he had planned for us! I couldn’t wait to see. The moment I walked into the bedroom, Zion grunted with frustration. “I thought you were planning to sleep with Blaze and Chase tonight!” I chuckled as I closed the door. “They were planning to follow me here. I swear these pups have more energy than the twins.” I turned around and gasped to see him right in front of me. He picked my hand up and led me towards the coffee table in one corner. How had I not seen it before?It was decorated with heart-shaped balloons and a white drape over which lay

    Andrea’s POV We walked hand in hand into the cozy café at the clubhouse. With the twins eager to start practice immediately after enrolment, we were free to enjoy ourselves. He led me to a corner seat, and we poured over the menu card, excited to be on an outing together. It wasn’t an outing in the actual sense of the term, but for me, it was like a surprise date with the man I loved. “What do you want to have?” I asked, only to find him gazing at me instead of the menu card. “You.” I blushed yet rolled my eyes. “I’m not available right now. Choose between coffee or drinks.” He groaned as if he didn’t know it already. “Shall we have a coffee date, then?” My heart skipped a beat on hearing something I was dying for. Yes, for the last seventeen years, I had been dying to go on a date with him. This time, as his fiancée, when I had started dreaming of a life together with him, he was abducted. “Are you sure? I don’t know if you want a date with me. You have always left me hanging!

    Zion’s POV The water cascaded down our naked bodies as we stood wrapped up in each other’s arms under the shower. This was a dream I had been wanting to fulfill since the day I met her! I hadn’t expected it to be fulfilled after seventeen years when I had almost given up hope! My hands roamed freely on her delicate skin, feeling her curves. “Mine!” I whispered hoarsely as I trailed my mouth to her neck, her throat, and down to her breasts. My fingers inched towards her slick pu*sy and plunged in. “Oh! Zion, please!” She begged me to please her, but the pain in my leg disturbed me. I couldn’t do justice to my dreams in this position. “Let’s continue in the bathtub! It’s more comfortable!” She groaned when I released her, leading her toward the bathtub. I felt a little disappointed that I couldn’t please her the way I wanted to. “Are you in pain, Zion?” She turned to glance at my injury as she filled the tub. I wondered how she knew. “A little. It’ll be fine once we’re in the tub
