Blair's POV “Yes, I ..” I didn't let him finish what he was going to say as I slapped him across the cheeks and he looked at me with shock, “What was that for?”“It's your fault I was involved in that accident, why didn't you stop your car when you noticed I was trying to get rid of it?!” I yelled. Deep down I wasn't even angry about him following me, I just wanted the opportunity to scream and cry.“I wanted to make sure you were safe,” Ace scoffed, “Maybe I should have minded my business in the first place.”“Yes, maybe next time you should cause I could have died because of you,” I spat.“Don't pour your anger on me, pour it on your lover who betrayed you, I'm not the one who left you because you can't bear children,” I didn't know when I slapped him again, this time I wasn't angry, I was hurt.“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…”“Thanks for saving my life,” I dragged my bag from his hand, stopped a taxi and entered before he could say anything.“Please take me to the nearest bar,” I s
Blair's POV I played with Ace's hair as he was sleeping peacefully. I can't believe I had fallen for a man younger than me and he somehow confessed first. Now I'm curious, did I fall first or did he fall first? I moved closer to him to kiss his lips and instantly shifted back when he opened his eyes, fuck, I didn't expect him to wake up so soon. “Why did you stop?” His low morning voice was like a warm cup of coffee on a chilly morning. His voice made me blush when I remembered what happened between the two of us this early morning. “Why are you blushing?” Ace asked and I tucked my hair behind my ear. “Bl.. blushing? No I'm not,” I tried to keep a straight face. Ace began to draw a circle on my thighs with his hand and it made my body heat up again, “Ace, stop,” I suppressed how I was feeling by biting my lip and fisting the blanket with my hand. “Why don't we continue from where we stopped this morning?” Ace left wet kisses on my neck and I playfully pushed him away. “Don't,
Blair's POV “Grandma, Grandpa, everyone, how about we get Kayla and Zade married?” I said with a wide grin on my face.“Marriage?” I heard Kayla whisper from behind me.“You want to get them married?” Thaila scoffed, “That's crazy, Blair is something wrong? Are you dying or something?”“No,” I shook my head as the smile on my face widened.“Then why will you get them married? They both hurt you,” Thaila sneered and pointed at the both of them.“I don't want to get them married because I want to, I'm doing it because of Austin, he..”“Who the fuck is Austin?” Thaila Interrupted what I was saying, and my other cousins couldn't give a reply; they all looked at each other. I guess they didn't know about Austin either.“They already picked a name for the unborn baby?” One of my cousins spat, “You two are fucking shameless.”My eyes searched Kayla's eyes, and she looked scared while Zade didn't look like he cared one bit, “Austin, Austin is Kayla and Zade's firstborn child; he is seven yea
Blair's POV“Me?” Noah looked at Zade with confusion written on his face, “When did I ever give you such information?”“Are you saying you didn't give him such information?” Thaila furrowed her eyebrows.“No, No, never, I never liked him enough to give him any information about Blair and especially one about infertility, I had never even run such a test on her so how would I know that?” Noah defended himself in a defensive tone.What was going on? “I will definitely cut off your tongue for lying,” Thaila hissed, her eyes looking around for anything to hit Zade.“Noah, I had seen the result too,” I said in a low tone, I was scared and hid behind Ace.“What result do you keep talking about? I had never run an infertility test on you before,” Noah defended again.“When I was in college, Zade and I saw the result in your office. You took my urine and blood sample, you took a scan, and you also prescribed drugs for me. Can you remember?” I replied with confusion. How could he have forgott
Blair's POV “Can we not go home?” I asked when Ace finished paying for the drugs at the pharmacy. “It's already late; we have been outside for hours,” Ace said; I opened the bottle of water and drank the drugs. “I know somewhere, do you want to go there till later at night?” Ace asked and I looked at him with a smile on my face. He hasn't been here for too long but he knows a place? “Where?” “Somewhere,” Ace winked; he started the car and drove to only where he knew where. I looked at him with so much love in my eyes. I had never felt this way for anyone, and I was genuinely happy, “Thank you,” I placed my hand on his, which was on the steering wheel. “For what?” He glanced at me before concentrating on the road. “Everything,” I pecked his cheeks, and his face turned red. “Blair, since we are together for real, I wanted to tell you something important,” Ace said; I nodded my head, waiting for him to say it. He looked at me with emotions I couldn't understand, “I wil
Blair's POVMy ……my…..my….. Mom ... .what…hap…. happened…..to…mom?I couldn't form any coherent words outside. I had a lot of questions to ask, but no words came out of my mouth; everything remained in my head.Ace helped me into the car. He entered the driver's seat, and during the drive to the hospital, I just wanted to know if she had started breathing.“Ace… Ace…do….do…do…you…. think….she…will ..be….be…be…O .. okay?” I couldn't be strong anymore. I let the tears roll down my eyes.“Blair, she is going to be okay,” Ace threw me a concerned glance; I wiped the tears from my eyes and turned my face to the other side of the car, resting my head on the window.Thoughts filled my head, so many what ifs, I was scared, she is not only my mom but my best friend. When we got to the hospital, I didn't wait for Ace to park the car, I took my phone and ran into the hospital.I called Kayla to find out where I was going to meet up with them. She couldn't say anything; she kept on crying. I ende
Blair's POVI tried to open my eyes, but my head ached so much I sat up and managed to open them slowly and carefully.I scanned the room with my eyes; it was a private ward; Father, Dylan, and Stephen were sleeping on the couch. Thaila was sleeping on the other bed while Ace was sitting on the chair next to my bed, he held my hand tight and was resting his head on the bed.I gently pushed out a strand of hair from his face so I could admire the man by my side.“You are awake,” Ace lifted his head with a small smile on his face.I smiled at him, I nodded my head, I opened my mouth to reply but I didn't hear my voice.I tried again, but nothing; why can't I speak? What's going on?“Blair, what's going on?” Ace asked with concern written all over his face. I hit my chest and tried to speak, but nothing, I was forcing it, but nothing. The anger and frustration made me use my hand to push the flower vase to the floor. It broke and made everyone wake up.“Blair, calm down, I will get the
Blair's POVIt felt so unreal watching the coffin being laid to rest. It's strange how fast the night could change and January first forever changed my life. This was the reality check that was needed and nothing else.It's been a few days, and I still couldn't speak; everyone was in black, and they had a napkin or cloth in their hand to wipe their tears while I had nothing, and my eyes were void of tears.Ace touched my hand. I looked at him, and he pointed at my phone; I opened my phone to see his text, “Are you okay?” I nodded my head with a smile on my face.Ace has been such a sweetheart; for the past few days, he hasn't said a single word to me or anyone; he had been communicating with his phone, and this was the first time I was coming out of my room, so no one has been able to suspect anything.I wiped the lone tears that rolled down my eyes as I poured sand on the grave. My legs gave up on me and I sat on the floor. I didn't think I would cry, but I saw myself crying like a b
