LUTHER *"Do you have any regard for me? even the least?", Laura asked barging into my office.I was with Owen, we were doing some work stuffs and handing over some things to him. Owen read the room and excused himself."Danger, I left your family and all your bullshit for good and you came back with your pity story and you said that you wanted me back in the game, and now you give everything to Owen?? Owen?? not me! What exactly do you take me for?"."Laura I really appreciate your effort and help but... you have to understand that this is way too serious than every other stuffs we've been doing, one wrong decision made and I'll regret it more than leaving the seat vacant. I'm sorry but I don't think you can handle it", I said calmly.She calmed down too."Why do you think I can't? because I'm a woman?"."Have I ever played the gender card role when it involves you? no Laura it's not because you're a woman "."Then what? cuz I'm now a true Cowper?", she asked."You'll always be my
IVY***I think Martins is doing too much, and it's making me think he's trying to do it to get back to Luther, somehow.Something like, "He did it but I can do better".And it's getting really creepy.He brings me flowers everyday at work, and that's really cute but the write up that follows are crazy. Something's like, "Getting you the flowers no one else could get you" and " Me over them all" and " he doesn't love you like I do" and " Putting a smile on your face cuz they could never".And he's obviously talking about Luther.I mean this would be cute if Luther wasn't in the picture and center of it all.And he's becoming really overprotective, aggressively protective and in all honesty it's getting really irritating.Like the other day he showed up at work unannounced, he said it was a surprise and that was sweet. But tell me why he got mad cuz I was talking to my co worker? he said the guy was obviously flirting with me and he even threatened to punch him in the face if he ever
LAURA **I sensed someone's presence in my house when I entered into it.The lights were turned off so I couldn't see the person, but someone was sitting on my couch.I acted like I didn't notice it and went to the wine booth where I usually hid my emergency gun and pulled it out slowly and then went to the switch, then I turned on the light and turn pointed the gun to the person."Martins what the fuck?", I questioned shocked because why is he in my house.He had a cigarette in his hand."Want some?", he asked, ignoring the question I asked."What the fuck are you doing in my house? how the fuck did you even get in?", I asked again ready to shoot him."Your mom let me in, she just recently left like 30 minutes ago".My mom??Yeahh I knew she was in my house, she did mention."The fuck are you talking about? why the fuck would my mom want to interact with a cunt like you?""Drop the gun Laura, and let's talk"."No you start talking before I blow your brains out, what are you doing h
"Marry you?", I asked laughing."You're insane to think I'll settle down for someone like you"."Non negotiable", he stated.My mother walked in immediately."What the fuck am I hearing?", I raged immediately."Calm down Laura", she said."No I'm not going to calm down, I'm not. Because you clearly told me that you wanted us to move here to Miami so we could have a normal life outside the Cowper's and now I'm hearing you had this master plan all along to make Luther want to step down by bringing Martins in the picture and put me in the spotlight so I could have the throne and now you're planning on killing Owen so I can have to throne and get married to Martins? are you insane mom?"."Laura sit down let's talk this out "."Hell no! and Martins I don't get you.i thought you clearly stated that you didn't want anything to do with the Cowper's, I mean My godfather even left you a Cheque and you bluntly turned it down "."Well it would ruin the reputation I'm trying to keep, besides you w
IVY**There was a knock on my door.I went to open it and it was Martins.He had flowers in his hands."What do you want?", I asked coldly."I'm sorry for my outburst the other day, that was so wrong and rude, I had no right to talk to you like that, I was just infuriated because I was seeing you with Luther and it just ticked me off, I hate him, very obvious and... it was just so wrong I'm so sorry".I crossed my hands on my chest, "When were you going to tell me that Luther was your brother? I mean how could you even keep that kind of Information from me?"."Because I genuinely don't want to be his brother, I don't, I hate the fact that he's my brother to start with and all he did was treat me like I didn't matter at all".I sighed and rubbed my temples."I'm so sorry Ivy, for everything. Everything"."Martins you're becoming... I don't know, different and it's really not something I can't explain. I mean you're becoming a control freak and it's getting out of hands "."I'm sorry,
IVY**Someone has been sitting in front of my house crying for the past 30 minutes and it's few minutes past midnight, at first I thought of calling the cops but... I didn't even know why I was hesitant.But it was giving gory horror movie vibes.After getting a knife from my kitchen, I went to the door and opened it."Laura?", I asked so scared and confused."What.... what are you doing here?".What if this was a trap and if I get closer to her she'll kill me.But then why would she want to kill me? I'm out of her life entirely, and I did try to convince Luther not to leave Mafia, I did my best, and he's obviously not leaving because of me.... I think.The point is, why would she want to kill me?"Do you think I'm cursed?", she asked in cleaning her tears."What?"."Do you think I'm cursed? like there's this I don't know, curse hoovering over my head"."Why'd you ask?"."Because everything is pointing to the fact that I just might be cursed ", she cried."Uhm... oh".I genuinely di
DISCLAIMER: SEXUAL SCENE AHEAD.Ivy **So let's pretend like, Laura didn't come to the front of my house to cry and then I helped her and she just walked out of me and said whatever she said... let's pretend that didn't happen.Martins disappeared after the last time I saw him, I've been unable to reach him everywhere... I didn't think about it too much because... Martins is Martins.And today, we were having our annual Dinner Banquet in our office.. it was more or less like a fund raising event, my boss would invite a lot of his rich friends and his rich friends friends... they'll socialize, talk business and get investors for us.I'm the manager of this company, so trust me when I say I'm under pressure, I'm under serious pressure. I've been so busy all week making sure that the event must be a huge success, it was my first time hosting an event like this, and I had to ensure it'll go well else I'd just cry.I was socializing with everyone; Something I hated to do. But for my com
But the problem was, I wasn't going to tell him to stop, I wasn't because I've deprived my body of this feeling of wanting him badly and having him and now my body has a mind of it's own and it's going crazy.His hands snaked around my waist and pulled the laces of my dress off and peeled my dress off my body.Our eyes met for two seconds, it was filled with raw lust and passion. He picked me up again and sealed our lips, and carried me to the living room and laid me on the couch. He stared at my body and bit my lips. "You're insanely sexy Ivy", he whispered before kissing me again.Damn it!!His hands began to explore my body, all over it, everywhere.Taking his time to massage my breasts. His lips moved from my lips and trailed kisses from my neck slowly, biting and sucking down to my chest, to mu breast.He held one in his left hands, grabbing gently, teasing my nipples, slowly, drawing soft circles all over. His mouth went to the other, doing the same thing his other hand was do
A MONTH LATER IVY**I haven't been myself ever since I saw Laura kill herself , right in front of me.The image will be stuck in my head for the rest of my life for sure.I blamed myself at a point, I felt like it was my fault all of this happened. Maybe if I hadn't gotten pregnant for Luther in the first place, maybe everything that happened wouldn't have mThat's what I used to drown myself in guilt, Until Lexy called me.She was so sad about everything, because she warned Laura about it too, she begged her to stop going down that path but she didn't listen.I told Lexy it was all my fault, that the night she died still haunts me everyday.Lexy reminded me of something else, if I never met Luther, I would never met my real family. I probably would have gone suicidal by now, or even the worse could have happened.She reminded me that my life has gotten so much better since I met him. Yes the adventure was there, the suffering too, but it all worth it in the end. I found my family,
"You shot Ivy?????", I raged loosing my shit."You see why I didn't fucken come tell you? do you see? I shot her but it wasn't my doing, my mother got into my head, she knew why she didn't do it herself that night, because she knew she was going to use it against me and torture me with it. I hated myself after that moment, you think if I wanted to kill her I would have missed? Why do you think after that I started becoming very close to Ivy? why do you think I started protecting her? started trying to keep her safe? drop indirect tips? why do you think I told her to go to Italy and not come back? because Martins was going to kill her, he was. And I knew I couldn't tell you because you wouldn't believe me that I was forced to shoot her, you wouldn't because she is all you care about, I become a skeleton, I walking corpse and was turned to a puppet because I was afraid to tell you that I shot Ivy and I didn't mean to. Had to live with everything going on, even took Therapy from your
LUTHER ***It was 3:45am when we got to the place. Asher had tracked her location to San Diego and this was where Laura's last phone call was made 16 minutes before we got here.We disabled all the armed men that got here very easily. We all know what we wanted."Haven't held a gun in months, I could say a year plus", Aaron mumbled as we stalked into the house quietly."Yeah, that's because you're a family guy now", Asher mumbled, the chuckled.It's how they can be so calm in the middle of all this that scares me.But then I remembered, they had gone through a whole lot, this was nothing to them.We searched the Entire house, it was empty.We barged into the living room, Mrs Ann's body and Martins body was found soaked in blood.What?Martins?I ran to him to check his pulse, he was gone.Oh my God."He's dead", I whispered coldly."Who is that?", Amber asked."My step brother",I replied coldly.If Both Mrs Ann and Martins is dead, then.....Laura what is happening here, what game
LAURA **I Sprang up from my bed, memories of everything that had happened in the past couple of years swimming into my head at once. I stopped myself from screaming as everything flooded my head.I was sitting on my bed shaking, physically shaking.The last thing I remembered was my mother attacking me.I stood up from my bed and went downstairs, hearing voices from there.It was Martins and My mother."Laura, you're awake, Martins and I were just -""You wiped my memory", I whispered slowly.They paused, exchanged glances and then looked back at me."What are you -""You both fucken wiped my memory, I remember everything, ever fucken thing!!"."Sweetie, I think you just had a bad dream, have you been taking your meds?"."No I haven't, because I noticed it was different from what the doctor prescribed, then I went online and did my research and realized that you've been feeding me with medications to make me forget everything that had happened! i skipped it for 4 days and everythin
IVY **It was shocking actually, when I heard Laura found out and she wanted us to talk. I honestly thought she's really maturity, which was definitely a good thing.She was kinda faking the smiles in the beginning but she just straight up told me that she's honestly not happy cuz she's been in love with Luther her entire life, so it was sad seeing him with another woman, again.But everything went well surprisingly, honestly really really surprisingly.When we were done she offered to drop me off at my estate."We should do this some more time", she said in the car."Yeah, that'll be nice", I replied.We went quiet for a moment and rode in silence."Do you know a girl named Jenifer? Luther's ex girlfriend?", She suddenly asked."Yes, he mentioned"."Do you know how she died?", she asked.I'm guessing she's trying to scare me off, typical Laura, she would never give in completely."I heard she was killed and hung in front of Luther's house", I said calmly."Do you know who killed he
LUTHER***I woke up this morning sensing a very negative energy. Something bad was going to happen, I could feel it but I didn't know what.I called Ivy to make sure she was okay, she said she was at work and everything was normal, nothing out of the ordinary. I could just feel something was wrong.I called Laura to check up on her if she was good, she didn't pick up.But she posted on her Insta this morning so I assumed she was fine, but something was off, I could feel it.I had a meeting in San Diego later so I started preparing for my movement today. I told Ben about how I couldn't shake off the sickening feeling that something bad was going to happen.But everything has been good lately, I have no fear of enemies attacking me or anything, I'm with the woman I love and my family is better than it use to be, what could possibly go wrong?Laura called back few minutes to my flight take off."Hey", I said."Hi"."How are you? are you good?".She sighed, "My mom just told me everyt
LAURA***Mother walked into my house by 6pm.She noticed my cold mood, even from the way I spoke with her over the phone to come over, I could swear she heard the terror in my voice."You wanted to see me", she said trying not to act bothered, but it was all over her face."Sit", I said calmly.Mother knew that when I wasn't in a good mood the worse thing she could do was make me angry. I could forget she was my mother for the moment actually.She did.I picked up my cigarette and lit it."You know Blu right?", I asked.She swallowed hard."Yes", she said "Well I went to her club last night, was with her till this morning and we had a chat, a long one actually. And she told me somethings", i started calmly."What did she tell you?", she asked."She said when I was in the hospital you denied her access to see me. And apparently also texted her to stay away from me. As if you knew that if I meet her I'll find out something you don't want me to "."Laura... Laura I can-""Don't fucke
LAURA **These past few weeks have been terrible, honestly terrible.It's like I'm living another person's life. I can't remember shit happening. A lot of things have changed, so badly that it's affecting me. Owen's dead, my godfather too?And everyone seems to be keeping secrets from me, I don't even know why.I walked into my mom and Luther talking today and it was about telling me something, something that I feel like Is the last piece to fixing my memory completely. But my mother told me she'll tell me in the morning and said I should go to bed after taking my pills.Something is wrong somewhere and I just know it and I can feel it. Everyone I ask about it either brushes it off or tells me that I should be happy I have forgotten all those cruel days I had.There was only one person I knew that I told my secrets to and will tell me too.Blu.I immediately got out of bed and found something simple to wear.I got out of my room and headed to my car."My mother asked coming outside
I barged into Mrs Ann's house."Luther is 2am in the morning, what the-""We have to tell Laura the truth, the complete truth, everything. We cannot keep pretending; I cannot keep pretending.""It's not that hard Luther, just pretend like you're both dating for now until when she's ready to hear it"."And when is that going to happen? huh ? when ??? because I cannot keep up with this lie. What's going to happen when she finds out we're playing her, or when she gets her memory?"."Luther I -""No I'm going to talk to her""And you think she'll listen? that's worse, what you're attempting just so you know. Lying to her about everything? she deserves to know the truth "."Luther for the first time since almost 3 years, my daughter is exactly how I have known her. She's happy, she looks and feels alive and she's herself again. Just so you know everything started changing and crashing the very moment she found out about Ivy, and now you want to do the whole thing again? relive the whole th
