Alina’s Redemption bottom lips
Alina's POVUnknown number— hello Alina Diaz, or should I say Stacy Miller?I stared at the text over and over my heart beating against my chest. What is that supposed to do now it was just a couple of world but enough to send my heart tumbling down a cliff of no return. “Mommy mommy” a constant tapping on my lap managed to bring me back to reality. I my hands stealed around the steering wheel in shock as a managed to swerve to the side and avoid the sports car that was teething in my direction. That's caused me to collide with the lemonade stand at the side of the road. Like hoodie f*** still did those s*** these days?I received a lot of cursing and yelling from all directions but luckily not much damage was done to the car so I was able to drive up before things got complicated I probably would win an Oscar for the worst mom ever. I couldn't even get my own son so the house from school without breaking down how pathetic was thatNiguez's blue eyes burned into mine only one word s
Alina’s Redemption Tablet
TRENT'S POV “Hey, come here, tiger,” I bounced on the sofa and patted the space next to me. Alina might have managed to distract me for a fraction of a second in that well-played move of hers, but if she thought that a kiss on the cheek was enough to keep me off her case, then she needed to try harder. Maybe if she captured my lips in hers, then that would keep me from asking any more God damned questions... Just saying, of course. I swatted away the imaginations. I would have better luck trying to get Niguez to tell me what he knew anyway.Niguez grudgingly left his tablet and walked over to meet me. “Sup men?” he demanded as he jumped on the sofa. “Men?” I muttered, the corner of my eyes twitching. What was it with this kid and how he was growing so fast? It was getting alarming, even for me. I was pretty sure that I didn't teach him that one. He grinned up at me, showing off his front teeth. “Yeah, that's what men call themselves, uncle Trent.” he said puffing up his tiny ch
Alina’s Redemption Rare Suprise
ALINA'S POV —Well, at least Trent wasn't joking when he said that he was going to make it up to us. Why, I didn't exactly know what was up to or why he was doing this, I sure was grateful. Although he didn't stress me about what happened at the Star Frost labs anymore, we seemed to have an unspoken agreement that our private life, activated to family with the kept personal and well private. That made me wonder, though, how long was it going to keep his own problems to himself while thinking that he could play the knight in shiny armor every single time. I think he was still upset, though, especially when I consider the fact that he kind of left our dinner halfway through. I wanted to talk, but my son came back down, and poof, he was gone. I called him, but he said that he had an emergency to attend to and that he would make it up to me the following day. Of course, I didn't really hold his word to that. He seemed to be really busy most of the time these days, and I wouldn't be
Alina’s Redemption Folding
ALINA POV—Why did I have a guy feeling that Trent was behind the sudden day off?“How did you know?” I asked Trent as I got into his car. He shrugged giving me one of his all knowing smiles. “Come on, tell me.” I urged him. The mystery was killing me. For all I knew, he was just a random worker in the tech company and there was no way that the manager would tell him that he was giving me the day off. Unless it was some general treatment but that would mean that everyone got the day off and that didn't even make any sense. It wasn't even worker's day. “I just know Alina,” he said, leaning in as he clicked the seatbelt, trapping me in place. I pouted folding my hands. “Don't give me that. You said we wouldn't jeep things from ourselves anymore,”He went to the other side of the car and slipped unti the driver's seat with a sigh. “I choose to be positive Alina, you should try it too. If you're lucky magic might happen. ”“Besides, a magician never tells his secrets. ” he added wi
Alina’s Redemption Rosy Cheeks
TRENT POV—I found myself glancing back at her ever so often. If there was one thing I could say, it was that my plan had worked perfectly well. Well, it wasn't really a plan in the first place, since I was only playing it by ear. I watched her with her cheeks all rosy as she swam in the water, showing off her strong strokes, just because, well, she had spent most of her years growing up in the countryside in Salamina, and so she decided to show off her superior swimming skills and rub it in my face because I basically lived all my life on business trips and touring the whole of America and Britain before I was sixteen. But of course, she didn't have to know about all of that. A part of me felt guilty for not telling her everything about me, especially since I was getting really close to her, but in reality, it wasn't really considered a lie since she didn't really ask me about it in the first place. Her views on me were mostly based on assumptions that she had reached over the y
Alina’s Redemption Warned
ALINA POVOnly then did I truly realize how little I knew about Trent. And I was determined to change that fact. I noticed the way he always behaved, choosing to be a gentleman all the time, choosing to be there for me instead of telling me what was bothering him, choosing to hear and listen instead of speaking himself. So much so that I began to see him as some sort of perfect human without any problems whatsoever. But that was so wrong, wasn't it? He was human, just like every other person, and he had problems too - inner demons that he kept caged.He didn't usually give me this opportunity to see him so raw, so I was going to make the most of it. My mind warned me that I should respect his boundaries and not push him too far. He said he didn't want to talk about his sister, but I didn't even know her name yet. How could I just give up like that?"Come on," I muttered, probing him gently. "You said you were going to answer my question, didn't you? Are you backing out now?"He bi
Alina’s Redemption hours of trying
ALINA'S POV —I spent the last couple of hours trying to convince Trent that I had to spend the weekend at Vanessa's. He was really obstinate and difficult, and kept on reminding me that I couldn't live without him. "Come on, Trent," I flung my hands in the air, breathless. His narcissistic vibes were stronger than I thought. After the... well, after the beach, something had changed between us, and he even used his charms to convince me into staying in his house. By charms, I meant invading my space too much that it was no longer room enough for three people. I swear he nearly brought in a mattress. So now, I was making some homemade pancakes for Niguez and me before we left, and he was being a kid, hugging me from behind and whining all over my shoulders about how much I loved him and couldn't live without him."Trent, I lived twenty-three years without you in my life," I said slowly, making sure I got my point across. He drew back in shock, "How come I didn't know about that?
Alina’s Redemption investigation
TRENT POV We were officially dating now. There was a strange kind of freedom that came with it, like she was finally mine, no matter what. Like I was boundless now, and she was tailor made for me. And why I would rather she spent the weekend that her boss Clarence had not so graciously given her off... I swear I had nothing to do with it. Well maybe I had a fit with him for making her go tu the star frost labs once I figured it out for him. I told him to investigate their CEO. I didn't actually think that he would use her to do the job for him so I threatened him with his job if he didn't make it up to her and I may or may not have threatened him witb his life too when he pointed out that the day off he gave her to yhe beach was something. It wasn't enough to placate my anger, simply because I did not know that he went behind my back before that time .On the bright side, she finally embraced those feelings and let me in, okay she still glared at me in times like this when Niguez

Alina’s Redemption Normal Life
—Alina pov I work in beside Trent. He give his sister Evelyn a hard stare and proceeded to enter the room, slipping into the chair opposite her. This is the first time that I met with her and for some reason, I didn't like the superior look she gave him. Did she even know who he was?He was CEO Alexander, everyone in America had heard of him. Who gave her the right to even stare directly at him?Then I reminded myself that she was his sister, and being directly related to him gave her that kind of leverage. From what I heard of her, she was a pain in the ass. And meeting her now, I didn't exactly have any reason to think any different. He promised me that this will be the last time she would come between us and I believed him.

Alina’s Redemption Controlled Emotions
TRENT povI managed to control my emotions and look away from Alina. My eyes roamed across the hall and fell on Gomes Allen. The latter glared at me and I could see his muscles clench. Oh I was sure he could do without my presence. It made me smile a little. He should be shaking in his boots at the sight of me. His eyes narrowed on my expensive clothes that match his, my identity card as CEO Alexander in full view. That's right, enjoy the view mother fucker because I'm not hiding anymore. “Can I help you young man?” the judge looked up at me with a flicker of surprise. “I have evidence that changes everything. ” my hands tightened around the document in my hand. I had it printed out in the jet and made copies of it. Clarence was a real genius and I couldn't wait to see the look on Gomes' face when I pulled off his mask in front of everyone. I might have hidden my identity but he was the real fraud.I marched forward and stopped in front of the witness box. My eyes locked with
Alina’s Redemption About the Year
Trent pov A day had passed. I sat in the board room with Clarence by my side. We were around a big round table where about six powerful figures sat, trying to engage me in a conversation. I was dressed in a half a million dollar red suit and black pants, the CEO look complete with cufflinks and I might have taken extra time styling my hair that morning. I checked my swizz watch for the fourth time since the meeting. I maintained a fuck off look with an expressionless gaze that could pass off for bored. Your darling CEO Alexander was back. “Shouldn't we at least have an explanation for your disappearance for almost three years?” one of the men demanded. I seemed to remember him to be one of my long term partners... Now let me check if I gave a fuck. I looked up from my phone. It was still on my chat with Alina. I had been staring at it all morning, expecting a word or two from her. I would even go with “fuck you Trent.” Her silence was worse that her an
Alina’s Redemption The Clearance
TRENT povWe sat in the restaurant, an unmistakable tension building up in the air. I wished that she would say something instead of looking at me with her lips slightly parted in confusion as she waited for me to drop the next bomb. I couldn't believe that I was taking Clarence's advice. It just seemed to be the best thing to do at this time. I knew that I could keep the truth away from her for as long as I wanted, but bit forever. For one thing, the company needed their CEO. Clarence never failed to remind me of that fact and the investors were starting to think that I was ignoring them. Nasty bunch of people that won't let me live like every normal human. I might have shrugged it off but Gomes fucking Allen could strom into the picture any time from now and I wasn't going to let him be the one to tell her about my true identity myself. “So... What's the matter?” Alina asked, breaking the silence between us. I took a deep breath. The waiter came back with our orders and pl
Alina’s Redemption The Satisfaction
Alina PovI couldn't stop thinking about Niguez's birthday. My whole world has flipped from the minute he stepped a foot into the house and he would see me in court. Like hell he would. Who did he think he was, trying to take my son away from me?I was more protective of Niguez now, and it broke me everytime he went through the school gate because I knew that Gomes could come around now and steal him away whenever he fucking wanted. Everything was staring to seem real now. I stared at the last text I got from Gomes Allen just a few minutes ago. I never replied any of his texts but just left them on read and poundered over them, wishing that could slam his face against the wall. Just once. Just this one time so that I would watch in satisfaction as the smug look was wiped off his face and he saw what if felt like to be a human for once. His new text is not as threatening as the previous ones but I feel more scared, just by scrolling my eyes through it. It said that the day of
Alina’s Redemption Bad Habits
TRENT'S POV —I glare at the documents in front of me. Working from home and having Clarence over was the worst idea I had ever came through with. I left Alina at my apartment. It was safe to say that she needed some space. Plus I badly wanted to strangle the mother fucker Gomes Allen for daring to show the fuck up at all. I went to one of my mansions instead and Clarence was here to make sure I attend to the matters in the company since he won't let me off the hook even if I'm supposed have disappeared... Hastag no where to be found. Gilbert was here too. To make sure I had my usual does of coffee and didn't resort to smoking. Ah... Bad habits. As though on cue, Gilbert walked into the room with a glass of coffee. He placed it on the table in front of me. Clarence and I looked up at the disturbance and I might have glared a little. “Anything for you mister?” Gilbert asked turning to Clarence. “I'll have what he's having,” Clarence said, passing me some paperwork. “It's not
Alina’s Redemption birthday
ALINA'S POV —Nothing was happening... That's usually my cue to figure out that there is something terrible going on in the background and I just don't know all about it yet. It was hard to actually think that Gomes was smart enough to heed to my warning and stay the fuck away from us. Not that I was complaining. After I deleted his number, I made a bold job in deleting him out of my mind for the second time, no questions asked. But I can't shake off the gut feeling at the pit of my stomach that something is still seriously off. “Happy birthday baby!” I hug Niguez to my chest and scream in delight. He blew off the candle on the cake sitting on the dining and grinned, revealing a pair of sparkling white teeth. “I'm a man now!” He puffed up his little chest, grinning with pride at the intimidating four drawn on the cake. I pulled back from him with a laugh. “Where do you think you're growing so fast to huh?”“Hell yeah,” Trent slip into the room and pick up Niguez, not without
Alina’s Redemption star Lab
TRENT pov“Alina? ” I called out walking into my apartment. She had suddenly disappeared during work and won't even answer my calls. I was starting to get really worried. I had already called Clarence and sworn a lot on the call warning him that he would lose his fucking job if he sent her somewhere else that was near Gomes Allen, the CEO of Star labs. I looked around and spotted her sitting on the chair in the dining, a plate of pasta in front of her. “There you are. Why did you take an early leave from work?” I took off my suit and dumped it on the sofa before walking towards her. There was no reply and I noticed the blank look in her eyes as she stated at the wall in front of her. She was shaking like she had an encounter with the ghost of her past. I stiffened, sensing the tension in the room. “Alina,” I tapped her shoulders, panicking a bit. Okay, a lot. She blinked and turned to me forcing a smile. “Sorry Trent, I didn't see you there,” she muttered, still looking shake
