Ella Smith...I woke up about an hour after I fell asleep. I glanced at my phone, which was left on my nightstand, and reached for it. I looked at the time and saw that it was ten past midnight.My lips opened wide as a yawn escaped my mouth. My left hand fell towards Elijah's side of the bed, and I frowned when I felt how cold the sheets were.I glanced towards his side of the bed and realized that he was not there. I sat up before I looked towards the bathroom. The lights were out.I then looked towards the walk-in closet and then towards the surveillance room, and no luck.With a small frown on my face, I stood up from the bed and went to the third door. Elijah has warned me one too many times not to walk around the house all on my own, so I had to check where he was through the cameras before I decided to leave the room.I walked in and plugged the computers, revealing the different rooms and places that were exposed to the cameras. I looked through the first three mo

I woke up the next morning to soft kisses being pressed against my cheek. I did my best to stop the smile that was trying to stretch my lips so the kisses wouldn't stop.The kiss moved to my jawline and slowly moved closer to my lips.Before it reached my lips, though, it stopped."I know you're awake, Ella." Elijah whispered against my lips, helping the smile to break free.I pealed my tired eyes open and squinted at him. Elijah's face was looming over me, his dark eyes gazing down at me with utmost affection and love."Good morning, wife." He mumbled before he leaned down and finally pressed a kiss against my lips.'Good morning.' I mouthed before I shot him a smile."It certainly is a good morning." Elijah commented, making me blush.My mind jumped back to the previous night when Elijah and I had made love for the very first time.Elijah pecked my lips one more time before he tried to get up. I wrapped my arms around his waist, refusing to let him get out of bed. Elijah laughed, a

Everyone was tense as we looked around at each other. The words the detective lastly spoke hung in the air."What the heck are you talking about?" Cane asked, breaking the silence that had enveloped the study."I don't know what they want with her. But they told me to use any means possible to get her out of the house. They even suggested that I should arrest her for conspiring with Elijah and then hand her to them before we get to the station." Detective Kevin explained."Why?" Elijah asked, and I glanced at him only to see that his eyes were now on me.Elijah's dark eyes were engulfed with flames. He looked like he could kill someone right at the moment."Again, I don't know why they want her. But they said that if I don't get her out of the protection you've placed on her, they will kill my son." The detective whispered."They probably chose you because of your badge. You can wave that around and lie about an arrest warrant and take Ella out easily." Cane assumed, drawing my eyes t

"The three of us used to be really close." Cane commented as he looked at the computer he had placed on his lap, sitting by the chair in front of the window in my art studio.I was standing in front of the canvas I had started drawing on the night. Elijah and I had that deep talk, finishing off the last details before I go hang it in his study."Of course, Elijah and Kevin knew each other before I joined in the little group, but nonetheless, the three of us were close to being brothers than any blood brothers there are out there. We were pretty tight. That being said, we assumed that Kevin knew about the life we were living. He came over to the mansion one too many times, and we also met him at other houses when we were invited to one of those fancy dinner parties. It was hard to believe that he had no idea that everything he walked on came from the web." Cane sighed before he rolled his head around to relieve the tension that was building at the back of his neck."Kevin sort of looke

I laid in Elijah's arms, my right hand tracing soft lines against his tattooed chest, following the outline of the dark inc that was embedded into his skin. Elijah had his arms around me, his right fingers gently brushing against my skin, sending butterflies into my stomach.There was nowhere I would rather be. I felt blessed to be in his arms, to feel the love he had for me, to hear those precious words getting whispered into my ears over and over again.I never want to lose this moment, and this man.After Elijah and I had made love post his arrival to the mansion, we laid in bed as he explained what had happened while he was gone.Just as he had thought, there were close to twenty armed men and women waiting for detective Kevin to arrive with me. He was sure that they had planned to kill both the detective and I the second they had their hands on us.Dante had done as Elijah told him to do and sent well equipped men to the old church. They successfully extracted the detectives son

Elijah Smith...I sat behind my desk, chewing over everything that had been happening in the last few days. I had been very stressed, and for some odd reason, I could tell that it was far from over.There was a tightness at the back of my neck that was refusing to let me work. I had already missed work the previous day, and it had already piled up. I only have about two hours left to get off of work, but I just couldn't help myself. I am unable to focus anymore.Letting out a sigh, I leaned back into my chair and grabbed my phone. I needed to take my mind off of the stress for a little while.I pulled up Ella's phone number and shot her a text."What are you doing?" I typed down before I sent it to her.The thought of what that old man said to me replied in my head. I felt horrible after I heard about what I had done to Ella.Whether it was intentional or not, it was still my doing that stole her voice. It still laid on my shoulders, weighing me down.When Ella had traced those

Ella Smith...A small smile was ghosting my lips as I threw the phone over to the chair that was near the window and looked back at the cananvas that was standing tall in front of me.I felt incredibly better after texting with Elijah. I really wanted to do this. I really wanted to see if there was a possibility that I might recover my voice.Even if the checkup gives way to the answer that there was no bringing my voice back, I still wanted to try. There was nothing I was going to lose by trying it out.But there was much to gain.After what Elijah said to me the previous night, there was a need deep within my stomach to open my lips and say the three magic words to him.Tracing it on his skin or mouthing it out didn't feel as fulfilling. Signing it was definitely intimate, especially with the extra effort my husband had been putting in learning sign language to the T. With a small smile on my face, I started doing the final touches to finish the painting.I felt bad for having a

Elijah Smith...I rushed towards my car and hopped in. At the corner of my eyes, I could see Kevin doing the same.Within the next few minutes, the two of us fired up out engines and drove out of the underground garage of the company.I sped towards the mansion while calling Ella's phone. She would know that something was up if I was calling her instead of texting her like I always do. I called her phone twice, but there was no answer.The next call I made was to Dalinda. That woman, old and frail she might seem, but she is just as deadly as the people on the web. She would protect Ella until I got to the house.The only problem was that she wasn't picking her phone up either. I tried Milton's phone as well, and just like Ella and Dalinda, he doesn't pick up.At this point, I was certain that Dante had beat me to the house.I tried every phone in the mansion, and still there was no one to pick up, not even the men I'd left in and out of the house were not answering their individu
