“What do you mean he escaped from prison? How did that happen?”Liam asked Luca, this had to be some kind of joke, how do one man plan a prison break and successfully carry it out without anyone knowing? He had been in bed when Luca had called him and that there was a situation only for him to get here now and Luca told him that Sloan who has been in prison for months now escaped unnoticed.“I don’t know, I got a call and called you too, there was a rush last night and he got away, we have to be on the lookout because we both know he will target us as we are the ones who got him caught.”Luca said and as much as Liam wanted to shake it off as another baseless talk, he couldn’t, if indeed he had escaped then there was going to be consequences, he wasn’t ready to think of it yet.“So? What do we do? What are the authorities doing to get him back in jail? His victims should not know about this, God, they will be so scared, I hope they find him soon,”Liam blabbered on not knowing what di

“Take a guess as to why I am calling you man, you are right, we are not friends and there are two kinds of people on earth fuu oh f me, the people on my side and the people who are my enemies, you are not my friend so you know where that leaves you right?”He said with an evil laugh followed by a deep cough, was he sick? He sounded like he was sick.“Where are you hiding Sloan? Don’t be such a chicken and come out,”He urged.“I like to hide and seek you know, so try to guess where you can find me, just heads up, I am very good at hiding, it is what I know how to do best,”Sloan responded.“You are good at hiding but you know who is good at finding Sloan? Me, I will find you so you better hide well,”Liam fired at him but the idiot was laughing over the phone.“You don’t have to find me when I intend to come to you, guess why I got out in the first place, I told you that I am coming for you right? Well, expect me in the worst way possible, best not to keep your eyes closed because I m

“Baby, I am sorry I took so long, there was a situation, I fight know I will take this long, I should have called, but I didn’t, I am sorry,”He apologized but she glared at him, she was mad at him and he couldn’t blame her. He hadn't even started work properly and he was already making up excuses, maybe he should rethink his decision of going back to work because he didn’t want to keep late nights and disappoint her.“Why did you not at least reply to my text? Please don’t ignore me like that again okay?”She said cheering up.“I am sorry,”“Don’t apologize, just do better next time, what’s with your face? You seem to have had a rough day? What happened?”She asked, finally hugging him. He hugged her closer and just inhaled her sweet smell. He didn’t know if he should tell her what was going on as he didn’t want her to be worried.“Just the usual, I am tired because I had to go to various places today but I am fine,”He resp deciding not to tell her just yet, she didn’t need to be bo

“She choose violence this morning,”Ruby said as she tried to get her baby to calm down but Kristen wasn’t in a good mood, probably because she is teething, she has been annoyed since early morning as early as four am she was up and she hasn’t let her rest.“Calm down little missy, you are gonna get in trouble if you keep acting this way,”She said but Kris wasn’t having it and was hellbent on making sure everyone knew she was uncomfortable.“Baby, stop doing that,”Her dad said finally joining them, he was getting ready for work, he stopped by her to give her a kiss and also kissed the angry baby too, apparently she didn’t want to be kissed because she pulled hard on his hair Ruby felt pity for the poor man who had to struggle to free his hair from their daughter.“Wow, is that okay? She looks like she is out for blood,”Liam said, rubbing his head.“I already have her a syrup, she will be fine, it’s nothing to worry about,”She explained, she was used to teething kids and some of th

Ruby sensed someone following her, she couldn’t be sure but she just felt like someone was following her, the red SUV behind her has been on her tail for more than twenty minutes now, She just drove past her route to confirm and the car was still following her, she told herself not to panic but she couldn’t help it. Who was following her and what does the person even want from her? She turned around to look at Kristen who was sleeping in the baby seat.“Stop following me,”She said increasing her speed a little, but the car behind her did too, she didn’t know what else to do, she had gone to see Liam’s parents earlier with Kristen, Liam had wanted to come to pick them up but she had told him that he didn’t need to, Liam had been a lot busy for the past week, he had a lot on his plate and she didn’t want to add to it, he said it is not a burden but every night, she could tell he gets more worried, Sloan has still not been found, she hasn’t asked him any questions about it but she knew

Liam called Ruby’s number for the tenth time but she still wasn’t taking her calls, he was worried at this point, it was almost seven pm and she should be back already, she had left his parent's house in the afternoon and no matter the traffic, she should be back or at least take her calls.He had seen her calls earlier and had returned them but she didn’t take her call and he just assumed that she left it in the bedroom like she usually does only for him to get home and she wasn’t there, he got off work early today just to be with the both of them since he has been so busy lately that he barely gave them time, he felt guilty even though she didn’t complain.“Pick the phone please Ruby,”He said, paving up and down in the living room, he ditch want to think about the worst, but the more she didn’t take her calls, the more his mind kept reading crazy meaning to her not being here, he didn’t want to think about such things.After waiting for another one hour and she still didn’t turn up

“Liam? We need to go home, we can’t stay here all night, let’s go home and we can talk about this,”Luca said, coming to stand by his side, what would he go home to do? He couldn’t go back to his house knowing that Ruby and Kristen were not there, all he could think about was he could have done better, he didn’t think Sloan would strike like this, he had underestimated him and now both Ruby, their unborn child and Kristen will suffer the consequences of his negligence, this was bad, the more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t get it off his head, he knew who it was, but how would he find Sloan? Someone they have spent almost going to two weeks searching for, Sloan did say he will find him when he was ready but Liam hadn’t thought it would be like this.“I can’t go back to that house Luca, not until I find Ruby and my daughter, I can’t,”He said when Luca tried to lead him back to the car.“You can’t find them if you stay here all night, let’s go home, even if it is not to your

Ruby woke up in a dark room, it took a while for her to be able to wake up properly, when she did open her eyes, it was so dark it was as if she has gone blind, or maybe she has because she didn’t have a glasses on and it sometimes happened like that, she couldn’t remember what happened but he whole body ached, she tried getting up and realized that her hands were tied, trying to free herself was not even an option because she didn’t even have the strength to do it.“Where am I?She whispered trying to figure out what happened, the last thing she could remember was,Oh God no, please not,”She cried trying harder to free herself, this has to be a dream, please let it be a dream, she silently prayed but the more she pulled at what was used to tie her hands the more this didn’t feel like a dream anymore and slowly she started to remember what happened, the man in the other car and parked in front of her and got her, she had tried to struggle and got hit, and then he had pulled her to hi

One year later…Ruby stared at the pregnancy kits she placed on the restroom table and blinked waiting patiently for it to read, she was counting the seconds until it would be done and as the urine flowed through, she saw the first line and smiled proudly, but she waited for them all to be done and yes, she was pregnant again, exactly a year after she gave birth to her baby son, Kelly was going to be a big brother and Kristen would be a big sister too for the second time.“Welcome to the family,”She whispered to her unborn child as she held her stomach, she quickly disposed of the kits, she had felt weird for days now and had decided to check it and yes, she was carrying.One year in marriage and it felt like a honeymoon every day in her home, Liam was the universe’s gift to her, not just Liam, but his family too, they made her forget her horrible first experience and it was beyond what she could have ever imagined, if someone had told her back when Richard had broke her heart that s

“Is it true what my wife was screaming about last night?”Luca asked him as soon as he got to work the next day, it was still hard for him to believe that he was getting married on Wednesday.“Yes, she decided we should be married before our baby is born, and managed to get every one of the ladies on her side so I have to be married by Wednesday which is five days, wait, make that four days away,”He said and Luca started laughing at him.“What’s so funny Luca?”He asked.“You sound like they are forcing you to get married,”He said still laughing, force? No way! He was happy, beyond happy that Ruby wanted to marry him but he was just a little bit scared that she might change her mind, she was pregnant and if she adds the wedding stress to it, she might back out and he didn’t want that.“Are you feeling like it is forced? You are frowning Liam, you want to marry her right?”Luca asked as if that was even a question.“Of course, why would you ask that, you know just how much I love tha

Liam didn’t think he heard her right, maybe he had a little too much cake to eat at Nathan’s and Emily’s wedding, he knew he shouldn’t have eaten so much but it was so sweet.“You want to marry me right?”Ruby asked again and he finally came back to his senses.“Of course, I gave you a ring, remember? I want to marry you,”He answered and she smiled brightly.“Then let’s get married, I don’t want a big wedding like that of Emily and Nat,”She said and he just stared at her“Wait, what? You want us to get married this week? Ruby? You are almost due and might give birth before the week runs out, she can barely do anything and you want to be married? Are you sure you are alright my lady?”“What are you saying? We still have two weeks, do you know how to count? Let’s get married before I give birth, I am calling you and your siblings right now,”She said picking up her phone and tapping fast on it, her phone soon rang and he knew just who was calling and it turned out to be that person wh

“Honey? Will you hurry up? We are going to be late and I want to be the one to catch Emily’s bouquet, we don’t go on time I might not get that chance,”Ruby yelled to Liam who was still getting ready, he was one of Nathan’s best men but that didn’t mean he should take all the day dressing, it’s been almost a month since after her divorce with Richard had been finalized and life had been all shades of fun since then, today they were all going to gather to witness Emily and Nathan say I do and she was so excited and really wanted to catch the bouquet even though she was already engaged.“Wait, you wanna catch a bouquet? How are you going to do it with the way you look right now?”He asked, mocking her, she looked so huge now she wondered how she was still able to move freely, she was eight months and two weeks pregnant, just two more weeks and she would meet her baby, okay, maybe three if the baby decides to delay.“I will, don’t get in my way,”She insisted.“I won’t have to baby, Kell

After speaking with Liam, and clarifying everything, everything was back okay again, the very next day, Sam filed the lawsuit and they got a hearing date, she didn’t need to show up in court, that was the best part of it, Sam said she would handle it and everything was discussed between Sam and Richard’s lawyer, she didn’t even need to meet Richard again, he called her and she told him off and blocked his number, she didn’t want his negative vibes, he had her before and lost her himself, which she was grateful for because if he had not ended things with her then she won’t have gone to Cacko and if she hadn’t gone to the island, she won’t have found Liam and Kristen and she would not have the life she had now.Only after a few days after filing for the suit, Sam called her that she had a huge chance of winning and it did happen because when he called her again, it was to tell her that the court has ordered Richard to sign the paper, she was so happy, but she hadn’t told Liam about it,

“Sam?”“Yes, he is my lawyer, I spoke to him and he suggested I go talk to Richard, I did that today but Richard is so selfish he doesn’t want to sign so I am going with Sam’s first suggestion which is to file for a lawsuit,”She informed.“Well, in that case, Sam is one of my favorite people now too,”He said and she laughed.“Oh, I missed us so much,”“Me too, I miss Kristen too,”She said in a sad voice.“We can go see her, she is enjoying her time with her grandparents, it’s just them as none of my siblings are at the mansion, mom called earlier and Kristen was having a fun time in the background,”He revealed and she cheered up.“That sounds so cool,”“Yeah, we can go over to see her if you want, mom won’t let me take her away until the one week I promised she would spend there is up, we can go be with her too, I know mom will want to see you too,”He said and she frowned in sadness again.“What is making you frown this time woman,”He asked pulling her face to his.“Talk to me,

“Why would you think I am angry at you?”Liam asked not understanding how that even happened, he couldn’t deny that he had pretty much been avoiding talking to her for the past couple of days but that had nothing to do with him being mad at her and everything to do with him giving her space, he didn't want to crowd her with everything going on.“I thought you were, you didn’t talk much to me, you haven’t hugged or kissed me for days, you haven’t told me you love me either, and I haven’t seen you for days, I thought you were not here,”She said and he felt like hell, he went up to her and kissed her.“I was here all along, saw you every time you left the room, I thought you knew I was home too and you just didn’t want to talk to me, I am not angry at you Ruby, believe me, I acted like a selfish idiot that day and felt bad about it immediately, I wanted to talk to you and say sorry but you didn’t want to talk to me,”“I shouldn’t have locked you out that night, I thought you would say s
