ROMAN

I went back to my room and played the recording and when I heard what was on it, tears rose in my eyes.

I couldn't believe it. I spent the entire night listening to it again and again and I couldn't help but feel like a fool.

Falling asleep to her voice, I waited till morning till the other kids went to school.

“Dad, why didn't you wake me up for school? Where's Ethan?”

“Belle, you're not going to school today. We need to talk."

She looked at me then immediately took off her bag and searched through it.

“You have my phone, don't you?”

I dropped it on the table and she gave up, and sat on the chair.

“Are you going to tell me what's going on?"

“Okay, but you have to promise not to be mad at mum, okay? She did it because she was scared and she didn't want anything to happen to us.”

What in the world was my six year old saying?

“Belle, I've been looking for your mum for a month. I just want her back home. I'm not mad at her and I would never be. Please just tell me.”

    EDENI woke up knowing something good had happened. I didn't exactly know what it was but I felt a lighter way in my heart.And then I saw him.The first thing I did was to run to him and throw mysf into his arms. The tears came immediately and I didn't know if I felt sad or happy.“Roman, you're here.”He kissed my hair.“Yes, my love. I'm here. Eden, gosh I missed you."He didn't know how much I missed him. It felt like I was losing it. Having to deal with something like this on your own seened more of a greater problem than I'd initially thought.Roman was always the one who helped through a lot of issues that I had and doing this without him felt like the time when I had to run away from him when I was pregnant with Belle.“Why didn't you tell me something like this was going on? I felt so out of everything when I had to hear things from our six year old daughter.”“Belle told you?"he nodded.“She told me after I found your recording on her phone. She fell asleep while listening

    EDENAlicia came back out as we were about to leave.“I was wondering where you were.”“I was putting the twins down for their nap but the sound of your lips smacking against each other kept waking them up."I gave her a look and pulled her in for a hug.“I’m so grateful to you. I owe you my life, Ally. You're the best friend a girl could ask for. Thank you for everything. For everything."“You’re welcome. Just know that if you ever need help, my door is always open. It's going to be okay. We're going to get rid of that bitch."“Does Henry know you use words like that?”She laughed.“He likes it when I use records like this.”“Speaking of Henry, where is he? I haven't seen him since I came around? Is he stuck at work?”“Oh no, he had something to do back in Nigeria so he traveled for that.”It was Roman's turn to speak up.“Really Alicia, I don't know what I would have done without you. Thank you for keeping her safe for me. You're the best.”“Oh stop, you're making me blush. Go on,

No matter how much she tried to run away from doing it, I would make sure that I kill him.I don't know what her fantasy was with that other man anyway.

    ROMAN“Do you really have to go?”I laughed and pulled her closer to me, kissing her forehead.“I have to. I need to make money.”“You already have so much. Can't you just stay? Get someone else to handle it."Since the kids left for school, she had been lonely and I knew because she barely left the room, she didn't speak to anyone and her dinner and breakfast was always in the room.I hated seeing her this scared and I'd told her that it was fine because nothing was going to happen but she didn't listen to me.Even if she didn't manage to go out, it didn't last very long.As soon as Belle went to school, she was back in the room.“I need to make more so that I can spoil you on our honeymoon.”It was obvious she had forgotten about it.“You’ve forgotten you're getting married to me, haven't you?”She sighed.“I'm sorry. My head is just so full right now.”“But you still want to get married though, right?"Her head snapped up to me.“Of course, I meant it when I said yes.”“Good becaus

    EDENI knew from the moment she came from the stairs that something was wrong.From the way she walked to the way she spoke to Roman, I could tell that something was different.Off.Then she looked at me as Roman walked away. Then I confirmed.“Why are you here?”She looked shocked that I had recognised her because her eyes widened.But she knew that there was no need to deny it.“Is it you or is it her?"“It’s me, she's having problems coming out. What are you doing here?"She seemed to relax when she figured out that it was me and she chuckled and fell back on the chair behind her.“So it's you. It's about time we had a discussion. Have a seat."“Don't act like we're friends all of a sudden. What are you doing in my house? And what are you doing in Quinn's body? Where is she?!”What the hell did she do with Quinn?“You might want to reduce your voice. We don't want any of the maids or guards hearing anything about this. Have a seat and then we can talk.”I let out a heavy breath and

Even though it was the night when she woukd be the weakest, she still needed to be strong enough to emerge.Time was going by so fast and if I didn't start preparing right now, I would miss this oppurtunity.The thought of asking the Moon goddess for help kept going through my mind and I couldn't just do it. She would rather die than allow that to happen. There was a higher chance of me winning this with her help than doing it alone.Lilith hated her sister and I could see that there was no love between the two so I was going to hope on that and use that to my advantage and make the Moon goddess chase her sister away from Edens body

Roman didn't even notice that something was wrong with her. His attention seemed to be on his phone but that didn't stop her from trying.“Quinn, I need to speak to you. Can you come upstairs for a bit?”She stopped speaking to him and Roman looked upstairs at my voice and waved at me with a smile.She however, did not.She left him and came upstairs and I left tow air in my room for her. What the hell was she planning in that sick head of hers?“What is it? I'm busy."“You’re busy? Busy doing what? Trying to get him and the kids out of the house so you

    THIRD PERSON POVWhile everyone back home was looking for Roman, he was on the other side of the town, looking through his pockets and swearing that he carried his phone.The minister noticed that he was distracted.“Is there anything you need? Are you looking for something?”Roman looked up.“Yes, I'm sure that I carried my phone but now, I can't find it.”Roman knew that he would have gotten so many calls. He'd left the house very early and no one knew where he was.He didn't take any guard with him either.“Maybe it fell on the way."Of course, it did. With all those bullets raining on his head, why won't it fall out?It had been pure luck that he had escaped. He was almost at the minister's house when he noticed a car that he was sure he'd seen when he got off the highway.He'd rolled his eyes, not wanting to be involved in any of this today.“Can we do this in a week? I have something to do today.”What should he do now? He knew he couldn't avoid them.To make sure that he was ri

    EDENIT was already seven pm and I still couldn't find him. I was ready and so was everyone else but he was nowhere to be found.I'd called him and so had Quinn but he wasn't picking up his calls at all.“Edem, are you sure he didn't tell you where he was going?”I thought back to last night and scrolled through our conversation.“No, I don't remember him saying anything about going anywhere. After I told him about the officiating minister, that was where the conversation ended. Nothing more happened.”Quinn came back.“His phone is switched off.”Wonderful, just great. Roman was missing on no other day than our wedding day.Where could he be? Even if he was stuck in traffic, he could at least pick up his phone.Or maybe he truly wasn't interested in getting married to me.But then he would have just said it then when I brought it up. Why didn't he say anything? He had the choice to reject me last night but he didn't.”Eden, don't worry. We'll find him in time for the wedding.”Alicia

    EDENI woke up early that morning.Well, we didn't sleep after that.. we stayed up the entire night talking about everything we'd been through and it touched me.Eventually, I fell asleep on his shoulder and I didn't even know. I was sitting in his lap and I woke up on the bed.Alicia was standing above me .“Hey, wake up. Let's get you ready. Roman left the house really early this morning and I have to go back home to get a dress for myself. I mean, I can't wear this.”She had eye bags and her face was very dim. She has started crying again sometime during the night.”Alicia, sit down. We need to talk.”She was avoiding my eyes.“Eden, there's a lot to be done today. I mean, you don't even have a makeup artist or a hairstylist either. Your dress isn't here yet and the food isn't ready. There's a lot to be done.”I knew that all that wasn't truly her concern. She was just trying to avoid talking about me.“Alicia, please -”“Eden, there's no time. We need to get ready."I had to get

    EDENWhen I finally got into the house later that night, I couldn't sleep so I just stared out the window at the stary night.Alicia had fallen asleep while feeding the kids so I would break the news to her tomorrow.I'd had to tell Quinn what had happened.“Really?! Was that why you were staring into the dark?””Yes, she was standing there. I'm not going to die, Quinn. I'm going to be here with my kids.”She pulled me in for a hug and held me tightly.“I'm so happy, Eden. You don't know how terrible I felt when you told me that. How can you die without watching your kids grow up?"I was just happy that I hadn't rushed to tell Roman anything that was going on.He was clearly exhausted because he didn't even wake up when I entered the room and when I got in the bed. I was equally so tired because I had spent a lot of time getting things ready today.My body was tired but my mind was still awake and buzzing.I was going to get married tomorrow. I should have told Quinn that we should ju

    EDENWe got back home late that night.Mostly because we needed to pull ourselves so that we won't show that we've been crying.Everytime we finally stopped crying, Alicia started again and we started another whole process of consoling each other.“Please stop crying. I don't know what I'm going to do if you're like this.”She finally pulled herself together and we got into the car and drove back home.“Are you really not going to tell Roman?"“I don't have a plan to. I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to tell him. He will be shattered, Alicia.”She still wasn't fine with it but she didn't say anything else until we got home.Alicia went into the house to check in on Roman and the kids while I went to the back of the house to check in on what Quinn was doing.She was actually on a chair and table with her legs up while eating everything she brought from the restaurant.“You seem to be enjoying yourself.”My voice frightened her.“Sorry about that.”“You guys surely took your time..

    EDENWe'd ended up at a restaurant because the bar we wanted to go to was closed.Roman had already called me four times to ask Alicia questions about the twins and he sounded like he was about to lose it.“Let’s eat so much that we won't be able to walk again.”And that's what we did. I think we ordered everything in the menu and we basically had the chef at our call to make anything that we wanted.That was the first time I would be eating so much food in one day and it felt so good.“I don't think I can eat anymore. I'm so full.”Quinn had been the one to bring us here and now she was already full. Alicia's mood had changed and she wasn't speaking anymore.Quinn's phone rang and she stood up to answer it.“Alicia-”“What’s going on, Eden? And don't even tell me not to ask questions. Because you can't keep doing this. I'm your best friend. You have to be truthful.”What was sj to do at this point? I had no other choice than to tell her the truth.She deserved that much.“Balari came

    EDENAlicia did come over that evening.And we stayed in the room throughout.“It’s fine. I'll take care of the kids. You guys just do what girls do. Whatever it is that you do.”Roman took the twins and left us.“What in the world happened? Why did you faint?"I acted like I had no idea what was going on.“I mean, I don't know. I just felt weak and tired and next thing I know, I'm waking up in a hospital.”“Woah, that is crazy.. but you're fine right? I mean, yorie okay?"“Yes, I'm fine.”I needed to change the topic.“Hey, about Henry, I've spoken to Roman about it and he had no idea that Henry wasn't home. He said he was going to help track him down.”I actually hadn't spoken to Roman about it but I just needed to say something that would make her forget about the previous topic.“Thank you. I just hope we won't have to go through everything we went through back then. He'll surely come back.”Surely, he will. He's probably just busy.Speaking of Roman doing things, I still needed t

    EDENI'd come home the day after that. The doctor said that I was free and healthy to leave but I didn't feel free.“Why the long face? Aren't you happy to come home?”I turned to Roman who was driving.”Oh no, it's nothing like that. I'm just tired."What was the point of being happy when I knew what was coming? And I couldn't tell him. I didn't want him to feel responsible for it.Roman is very quick to blame himself and I didn't want him to. I should just die peacefully so that he would have the guts to move on from me.If I told him that it was because of him I was going to die, then I would mess things up.I recalled my last conversation with Balari.“Are you sure it's what you want, Eden? Men are not worth it. You can live with your kids and raise them in your own way. You don't have to do this.”But it seemed like the more we spoke about it, the more determined I was to do it.“I do, actually. I love Roman, I can't let him die for something he has no hand in.”“And you have a

I knew this wasn't my room, and it surely didn't smell like this.I tried to move my hand and when I saw the IV line shake, I sighed. The hospital.How did I end up here and why didn't I remember anything?Me being here meant that something had happened to me but for the life of me, I couldn't bring myself to. I felt so weak so I just relaxed in my bed.I didn't even have the strength to call for help and eventually, I slept.The next time I woke up, the sun was out thankfully and my eyes didn't feel as heavy as a boulder.My stomach was hurting badly, partly the fact that I hadn't eaten in a day and half. I needed food or else I might actually die this time around..I sat up in my bed, clutching my stomach tightly. I also needed to pee. I've never been to the hospital before.Roman was born in the pack and Belle?Well, Belle was born at home because I had no idea I was in labor and since Alicia and I had never been mo
