He'd been staring at the ceiling for quite some time when he heard a loud crash from the other room. Damn! He dashed across the other room. Ellah was clutching the side table and adjusting to stand, which caused his eyes to narrow.

"Cuhen..."

He sighed and turned back to his room when she called his name. He walked away from her, his fist clenched.

***

ELLAH tries to hold back her tears. She tripped and fell. As she turned, she didn't realize she was on the wrong side of the bed. Her hip ached, but her heart ached even more. She wanted to say thank you to Cuhen for saving her from Kleve's hands, but she lacked the guts to do so.

She's still consumed by fear. She sighed and went to the garden. She was gone for two weeks on this island, and whether she admits it or not, she missed the flowers and the quiet ambience. She sat on the log bench, recalling the day Cuhen greeted her in the midst of the garden.

"Good day, gorgeous!"

She turned to look at the direction of the voice. She saw a

    SHE WAS in a chopper with Cuhen the next day, but he seemed disturbed. He was simply staring at the ring on his finger. She smiled bitterly. It's obvious that it was his engagement ring to Florae, that saddened Ellah. Cuhen is hopelessly in love with her late fiancee, and she knows it. She just looked down, sad, and didn't say a word. She was at a loss for words at the time. The feelings that enslaved her were mixed, and sadness was the dominant one. She couldn't even smile since she was so sad."Ellah..."She looked at Cuhen when he called his name, and Ellah noticed the deep gaze he gave her. She waited for him to say anything, but his mouth stayed closed. She drew her gaze back and concentrated on the outside of the window. Her heart only grew sadder. She wanted to scold herself for feeling sad now. She doesn't want to feel this emotion, but how can she do that? How to do something that won't make her sad?Because the truth is that her heart feels heavy and overflowing with those m

    She sampled every food item at the fruit stand. Because Azael hangs out with her, she and Azael are commonly mistaken for a couple. He drove her everywhere that day and got her some wonderful clothes. Most of Azael's purchases are clothing for motherhood. She just raised an eyebrow at him and didn't bother to ask why he chose maternal clothes for her. Does Azael know she's pregnant? Does Cuhen too?She was exhausted and about to get into Azael's car when she felt someone grab her wrist."Damn, Ellah!" shouted Cuhen. She was about to pull herself back as she sighed in protest at what he had done when he grasped it hard, hurting her."Hey Cuhen, Ellah is hurt by your grip," Azael remarked, only to be hit across the face by Cuhen."Fuck off, Azael Aadi Legrand!" His eyes are narrow. He's angry as hell.Cuhen's actions caused her blood to boil. As if she didn't know he'd taken Hernandez's company? Then why did he feel the need to hurt Azael, who had only ever tried to make her happy for e

    But why is he acting in this way? Why? He wasn't sure why he kept doing it. He didn't want to let Ellah go since he was thinking things only he knew. He wants to know what he feels for her, so Ellah can't leave him yet. He caught a glimpse of Ellah, who was sitting in a corner of the chopper with her brow arched. It was the first time he had ever noticed her looking so irritated and uninterested in him. Oh, crap!He swears to God, he'll smash his cousin to the bone!When they got to the island, she just frowned and went to him first. It didn't even wait for him; it immediately ran through the house.Fuck! Fuck!Frustrated, he kicked the sand. He wondered why she was acting this way toward him now. He had almost lost his mind earlier while looking for her. Farhistt and Herrence also helped him find her earlier. If she hadn't been with Azael, he could have located her right away, but they had trouble finding her earlier since Azael was with her. Damn! If Ellah only knew how angry he was

    He shook his head as he remembered that night. He stood up and went to the minibar in his living room. He needs alcohol to let him sleep. He sipped his drink while he sat on the chair. Then, in his memory, he saw Ellah bathing that day in the waterfall.He looked through the entire house for her. He nearly searched the neighborhood before deciding to walk to the waterfall, where he knew she always visited. He wasn't mistaken; he saw her at the falls. She was clad simply in a flimsy nightgown. She was laying on a large rock in front of him. She is so beautiful that he cannot look away. His body's warmth increases with each drop of water that touches Ellah's beautiful body. He's getting a boner. With all of his calm gone, he stripped naked and made his way to her location. For the first time, he carefully and admiringly claimed her. If he couldn't taste her right now, he'd go nuts. Oh, how gorgeous she is—but just for him. No one can rob him of her beauty. Only he has the right to co

    He feels as if thunder and lightning are striking him. Even more painful than Kleve's shot was what Ellah said. Bullshit! He instantly searched for his phone so he could call Farhistt and kill his cousin Azael. What did Azael give Ellah to make her the way she was? She was once a sheep, but she is now a wolf.But he decided not to call his friend Farhistt, he threw the phone away and stormed out of the house. He's not hungry at all! Damn it. He would take a swim in the waterfall to relax. He had already made up his mind to refrain from yelling and shouting with Ellah.If he didn't treat her well, Ellah would go to his cousin Azael. This might be one of the factors influencing Ellah's decision to choose Azael over him. Considering that he was prone to losing his temper. He has an explosive temper. Ellah's kind face is still tempting Cuhen in his thoughts as he dives to the bottom of the water."Herrence, lower your voice!" he growls angrily to Herrence. He did not want the woman to ove

    Cuhen climbed up and went straight to the tree. He slugged it hard. Damn! He must vent his rage at these moments. The woman's sudden change was still grating on his nerves. His fist was gushing blood when he got home. As he walked into the house, they ran into each other. He saw her frown and raised an eyebrow as she looked at the bleeding wound on his arm.He didn't feel any pain. His entire body has been numb since the deaths of two important people in his life. But why does he already feel a strange pain whenever Ellah avoids him? He anticipated Ellah would come over to him, but instead she turned around and went upstairs to her room. He sighed and made his way up the stairs to his room. He can sleep off the fact that his body is tired.He laid slouched on the bed, naked, and silently regarded the ceiling. He was in such a state when he felt the door open. He didn't budge an inch. He quickly shut his eyes and pretended to sleep. Ellah's footsteps could be heard moving closer to him

    "Are you a Tarzan? Why are you here, and why did you come in through the window?" She locked her gaze on him."Relax, Ellah! I've got a plan," he says, grinning like an asshole. "Are you going to help me escape? Yay!" Her eyes twinkled.He laughed, was surprised by her reaction, and couldn't believe what she had told him. "Do you want my cousin to murder me, Ellah?""You can't help me then," she grumbled. "If you don't leave, I might hit you on the head!""Oh, hey-hey! Easy woman! I still want to have children. It's unfair if it's just you and Cuhen."She looked at him intently. Azael grinned. "I know you're pregnant and that you loooove my cousin; I saw it in your eyes and actions the moment I walked in here, and there's no denying your love," He became solemn and fixed his gaze on her. "But in today's situation, you're confused because you don't know where you're going in Cuhen's life, whether he loves you or just feels sorry for you."She looked away and was eerily quiet. She

    The loud sound of her cellphone jolted Ellah's sleeping spirit awake. This is all she does in Russia for the few months she is there. She would get up, eat, go for a walk on the beach with her housemaid, and then watch TV in the living room when she got home, or eat all kinds of fruits except watermelon, which she despises.Azael hasn't called her in more than 4 months since he left, so that's a remarkable accomplishment as well. He left her a lot of money, including a credit card she thinks will never expire, so she doesn't have a money problem. She has greatly benefited from Azael, and one day she will be able to give back to him for his efforts. But each time Cuhen crosses her mind and his face shows up, she feels hurt.There was nothing wrong with her choice to leave—it was for the best. She loves Cuhen, but she loves herself and her child just as much. She didn't want her child to grow up with a father, but he didn't give a damn about her. She will be both a father and a mother t

    KIERA’S P.O.V I insisted on having some energy tonight when I got home. I don't want my twin to see me sad. They will definitely ask me questions and do anything to tease me.“Listen to your heart Kiera. What does it say? If you really don't like Jayar anymore, tell him you don't love him anymore. ‘Don’t hurt yourself.’I was shaken when I remembered what Esan had said. What is my heart saying? All I know is, anger is contained in it. But why every time I push the man I hate away, the anger I feel slowly disappears. Should I really accept him back into my life after all he did? Does he really deserve a second chance? What if he hurts me again? What if it leaves like a useless thing? I don't want to experience them. Stop. But why is the whisper in the corner of my heart to forgive him?I bit my lip. No, I can't forgive. Maybe when I do that, I might go back to where I used to be. The former Kiera fool in love.After I changed into house clothes, I headed to my twin’s room. As usu

    JAYAR'S P.O.V I encountered a bottle of brandy on the terrace tonight. I am alone in this mansion where before, this is where my love affair with Kiera began. The amount that bothers me mentally and my mood is very difficult.I tried to plant in my mind that I had no hope of getting him. She’s happily inlove with Esan. Irain don't want to mess up the world of the two of them. I have done this once and I have felt so much remorse. But when I saw the look of the twins up close, I noticed it looked like me. They both took pictures of my face when I was young.I also felt differently with the two children. I like to think they are my children but Kiera herself said that they are not my children.Then my phone rang in my pocket. I immediately looked at who it was. The name of a detective registers on the screen."Sir, I did what you asked me to do."“Good. Bring it to my place immediately. ” And I turned off the call on the other line.I hired a detective to investigate whose son Erson an

    "Mommy!"I turned to the door. I laughed when I saw Esan carrying another toy. He always jokes with me like this when we are at home. After she placed the toy next to the children, I guided her out to the kitchen to make coffee. We didn’t go home together because ‘he didn’t come in. He allegedly took care of something. I have worked with him since my twin was two years old.I brewed two coffees for each of us."I have news about Jayar ..."I stopped sipping and looked at him. "Please don't want to hear his name again."He nodded and apologized. I asked him before that no matter what happens, I hope the young man does not know that he has a child with me. It's enough that once they kidnapped Jai from me. They don’t have a heart and that’s how I think of Jayar.We live in a subdivision with Mela that is owned by Esan’s family. He had a kind family background and considered me family. Her parents really wanted us to live in their house but I refused. So embarrassing.After we drank coffe

    JAYAR’S P.O.V. My business deal ended today so I got in the car to go home and see my mother and me. But before I boarded, a man approached me and handed me an envelope then immediately turned around and disappeared. Astonished, I looked at the envelope I was holding. I opened it and was shocked to see who was in the picture."Damn!" I angrily slammed the steering wheel.I crumpled the picture in my hand. I didn't bother to look at the other pictures there and it seemed to be punching my chest. I need to talk to Kiera. I will ask him and let him explain. Maybe it's not true and it's just a fabrication of someone who wants to ruin us. Either Mom or my ex-fiancee. But before I could start the car there was a dropped note on the back of the envelope. It's just stuck there or something.‘See how bitch your Kiera is, Jay. Even your cousin Esan is flirting. That beauty is just fooling you. Get rid of that, son. 'Your Beautiful Mother.My mouth watered and angrily licked the little paper.

    KIERA’S P.O.VI have a hard time moving properly now that we are all together. Even though the mansion is big, I feel like it's getting smaller, especially since the two of us have hot blood. Jayar really wanted to move me to a condo with Jai but I refused.“Here is the money! Get out."I turned to the old Lady who was now in front of me and handed me a thick envelope. I'm not a fool for not knowing what that means."I don't look like money, ma'am, if that's how you think of me," I said calmly but anger began to rise in me.He smiled and took another envelope from his bag. “You want a double? Here! Hello, get out of my son's life leech! ”The deep wind blew me away. “Is that really how you think of our poor people, buy? If you can pay for everything in this world, pwes Senyora, I can't, ”I replied heavily.It doesn't matter if my behavior is rude. I don’t care about that anymore.

    I decided to go back to work. If I'm always here at home, maybe one day I'll feel numb. This is my life and I will do what is best for me. I will leave the child to Mela and take care of her. It's also embarrassing that I'm going to make the man live. Maybe one day, he'll blame it on me. So right now, I have to scrape for myself and for Jai. If only we could bring back that quiet life, I would have done it. But I can't go back yet. Maybe that witch will grow old. He would destroy and hurt Jai's feelings again without me and I would smear his face on the roof."Kiera?" Esan's handsome face reflected the pleasure when he saw me in his office the next morning.My mind was determined to return to work with him. Any job I will accept. I knew he would not disappoint me.“Good morning. Am I welcome to come back here? ” smiling I asked."Of course you will!" He stood up and approached me to help him sit in the chair there.

    JAYAR’S P.O.V. "Damn!" In my car, I went straight to a bar. I just let my feelings pass. My phone rang and Chilsea was calling. I didn't answer it. I wanted to be alone.I hit the steering wheel. I hate myself. I was sending too much of my anger when Kiera lied. I exercised my pride too much. I was just shocked when he blamed me for everything he was upset about.Kiera has a point. I became too greedy. Selfish. I used to not care about the people I stepped on. For me, I am the one to be obeyed and when I don't follow what I want, poor person. But when it's time for Kiera to run away and take my niece away, I will do everything. He will stay in my house as long as I want."Bullshit!" I braked in the middle of the road and got hit in the head. Kiera's teary eyes seemed to be temptingly appearing in my mind. It's like my heart is pounding and I hate this feeling.I only loved him one night and that night was over. But why did I feel the strange emotion that began to emerge?KIERA'S P.O.

    I quietly stepped into the house. I carried the child because I think he had run out of energy to play with the other children before. I found out from Jayar’s security guard guarding the gate, that the man had arrived earlier.I was exactly entering when I saw Chilsea wrapped around Jayar's neck and seemingly huddled in the middle of the house. Even though I was affected, I just pretended to be insignificant.I no longer disturbed them with exposure. Jai was fine and asleep. But the child will be surprised and I will have a hard time explaining."Where have you been?"I paused for a moment. Jayar noticed me. I didn’t answer and I continued to step towards the stairs.“Aba! Who is acting! ” let Chilsea hear me.I pretended not to hear that. I just kept going. I didn't look at them and I might get hurt.Tears automatically fell in my eyes when I laid Jai down on his bed. I kissed his forehead and leaned over him. Here I will spend the night next to the child."For you son, for you I ca
