*First Person's Perspective*

~Enise~

"Enise" As soon as his eyes met mine, he called out. My breath got caught up in my throat. I thought that I was fully prepared but seeing him again in person reminded me of our terrible past. But he still looked undeniably gorgeous. His beautiful hazel green eyes that made him stand out at all times and that perfectly chiseled face, but that wasn't my focus so I distracted myself immediately.

His eyes were wide and his lips slightly apart in shock. I can't lie, that reaction gave me the best satisfaction "Mr. Lucas, right?" I asked, totally ignoring his words as I walked up to him, my hands outstretched. He didn't take it, rather, he closed the gap between us and grabbed my shoulders "Enise" He called out again. His eyes going everywhere around my body, from my head to my toes "Enise" This time, it was a faint whisper "Um... Sir, you're making me uncomfortable. What are you talking about?. Who's Enise?. My name is Dr. Denise" I said to him, trying to break free from his grip

"Ha! Very funny, Enise" He responded and I creased my brows in confusion "I can't believe it's really you" He muttered to himself, but I heard

"This is very unprofessional Mr. Lucas. I do not know this Enise you speak of or who she is to you. I am Denise Richards And I am here to sign the medical contract between the two of us" I maintained my stance. There's no way I would let him know who I really was. That would only ruin my plans on taking revenge

I would never let him know my real identity, not until my plan has already been accomplished. "You don't have to lie to me, Enise. I already regret my past actions. You don't have to pretend to be who you're not, I..." He was saying but I interrupted immediately

"Are you sure he's alright?" I asked the man who stood at a reasonable distance, looking very stunned and confused. "Ahem!.. he.. he is alright, you just bear a striking resemblance to someone from his past" He answered and I smiled

"Oh! Is that so? Well, I'm sorry Sir, but this would be the first time I'm ever meeting you, so I am very sure that you're mistaken. I am not Enise, but Denise" I answered, the smile still gracing my lips. His grip on my shoulder loosened and I walked away swiftly and took a sit opposite the huge desk as the other man had gestured

It took him a while but he was finally able to get his act together. Not until I spoke though

"Not to be offensive or anything, but are we going to start with the process now or what?" I asked and he jerked out of his trance and walked up to take the seat opposite mine. "I'm.. I'm really sorry Dr. Denise. I just... You bear a striking resemblance with someone I know. I'm sorry for acting weird earlier" he apologized, I knew for sure he still had his doubts but I decided to play along

"It's alright Mr. Lucas. I understand" I answered with a smile. That said, we signed the contract and everything went smoothly. Words alone can not describe how happy and nervous I felt. I would see her again. I would be able to hold her once again. The joy in my heart knew no bounds, but I tried my best to keep my emotions at bay and act professional, just like I was supposed to

"So, I'll see you tomorrow?" He asked and I tilted my head, clearly not in understanding. "I mean, you'll be coming to see my daughter tomorrow? You know, the patient who needs medical care?" He elaborated and I nodded almost immediately. "Of course" I wouldn't miss that for the world

I wished I could see her even today, but I learned that she was in school and seeing her would not be possible

"Alright then. I shall be on my way now. It was nice knowing you Mr. Lucas and I can't wait to meet your little girl. Something tells me that we would have a beautiful relationship with each other" I said, displaying my thirty two dentals with my hands outstretched for the second time today

He grabbed it firmly and nodded. "It was nice knowing you too, Dr. Denise. And once again, I'm sorry for my behavior earlier" I simply shrugged it off. Honestly, I was tired of hearing it.

"Thank You Sir" I said and walked out of the office and headed straight out of the building. My cheeks hurt from all the fake smiles I had to put on. As we talked and he mentioned his daughter, scratch that, my daughter.. They had named her Miracle. He mentioned how sweet she was and all the fun things they'd done together. How she was a fun and easy kid, it reminded of the time I missed with her

Her first word, her funny moments, her tantrums. All the things that made a mother look back and smile. I missed all of those and it was all thanks to him and that stupid Laura

Listening to him did nothing but only strengthen my resolve to take revenge. I wanted nothing but to make him pay dearly for all the pain he caused me, I was...

"Dr. Denise" Ah! Speak of the devil. I turned around with a small smile

"You've been standing here for a while. Mind if I give you a ride?" He asked and I politely declined "Oh no Mr. Lucas, I'm alright. Just waiting for a taxi" I answered, but he insisted. "No really, I don't want to be an inconvenience to you"

"I actually don't mind, Dr Denise" I simply shook my head. Of course, he didn't change one bit. Why did he think he could always get things done the way he wanted? I mean, yeah he might be an Alpha, but he's not a God or something.. ugh! How much I carved to paw this bastard, I just wanted him to feel pain, but I was able to pull my act together before doing anything stupid

He had no idea that his presence alone was enough to make my stomach turn. "I am going outside the pack, my hotel accommodation is in the neighboring town, and I am certain you're not heading that direction" I said. He looked at me, surprised

"Why don't you come stay in the pack? I can give you a room in my home if you want. I mean, I want you to be comfortable since you'll be taking medical care of my daughter" Oh wow! I sure as hell did not expect that

"Are you serious?" I asked. "I sure am" he answered with a smile. One that I have never had the honor to witness

"I don't know, I really don't want to inconvenience you Mr Lucas" That was all just for show. I would gladly move into his house, since that would mean seeing my daughter everyday

"It's really nothing, my house is big enough to contain all of us" That said, I nodded in agreement. He called some of his men to go pick up my suitcase and belongings from the hotel I lodged in the neighboring town

We got to his house a few hours later and I felt really nostalgic. This place held so many memories, both good and bad ones. I sucked in a deep breath and put all that behind me. I needed to stay focused and not stuck up in my past

I was shown to my bedroom and when I was settled and in, I picked up my phone and rang Lucian

"Hello Lucian" I said the moment he pressed the green button

"I was able to get in. You should be on your way so that we can set the plan in motion" an evil smirk danced on the corners of my lips as I thought about what I had in mind

I was now a great evil he had no idea he created

The door knob turned and the door creaked open. I expected whoever the guest was to at least say something, but I heard nothing which prompted me to turn around My heart always flew out of my mouth when my eyes landed on her small fragile figure. She was staring at me with a mixture of joy and curiosity “Hi there little angel" I waved with a soft smile on my face. It seems like that was her cue to smile to. I saw her little cheeks burn red. She was shy“Oh come on Miracle, there's no need to be shy" I said to her, the smile not leaving my face “Come, come let me give you a hug. Maybe that would make you feel better and less shy?" I asked, my hands outstretched She walked to me and embraced me. Tears welled up in the corners of my eyes I inhaled her scent as discreetly as possible, I didn't want seem weird. I couldn't he

You insulted me in front of my guest and daughter. What's all this about? If you have something to say, couldn't you at least wait till after dinner was over and do you have to raise your voice and say insulting words? You know I'm just tolerating you because of how close we are, you know that. So do not push me into doing something that I might regret later" I said and he chuckled

I nodded my head and said“Interesting choice" I couldn't believe that he would do such a thing. He knew that I was allergic to strawberries yet, he made me eat themWas this a plot?

He would have to do significantly more than just thisI had thought that I was able to convince him at the hospital, clearly Marcus thought otherwise and must have led him to believe that I was lying or something Dinner was over in a flash and I went over to my bedroom.

I asked and rose to my feet“I'll go with you then, and we will take a lot of guards along with us" He said and I simply rolled my eyes “Marcus, will you relax? Slade can't do anything to me, that would only mean that he's asking for war, wouldn't it?"

The day had been long, the conversations were intense, and my mind kept drifting back to everything he had said. As I walked through the door of the house, I was met with the usual warmth. The faint smell of dinner wafted from the kitchen, and I could hear the soft murmur of voices coming from the dining room.A servant approached me, offering to call me down for dinner, but I simply shook my head."I’m full already," I said with a polite smile. I wasn’t ready to face Lucas today. I didn't want to see himI was exhausted, both mentally and physically, but I didn’t want to deal with the stress of answering questions from him here and there, plus, the thought of food didn’t even appeal to me. I just needed some time to myself to process everything.About thirty minutes later, I was in my room, sitting on the edge of the bed, when there was a soft knock on the door. I looked up, surprised.

A loud squeal escaped my lips as I grabbed my phone from the bedside table, eager to call Lucian and tell him the good news. The first phase of our plan had been a success. Lucas had agreed to the investment, and now things were set in motion.I quickly dialed Lucian’s number, my fingers trembling slightly with anticipation. It was hard to suppress the bubbling joy I felt. This was it. We were finally on our way to destroying everything Lucas had built, and I couldn’t help but relish the thought of it.Just as the phone started ringing, I heard a knock on my door. I froze, phone still in hand, my heart suddenly racing. Who could it be? The knock sounded deliberate—quiet, but firm—and I knew it wasn’t one of the staff.I turned the phone’s screen off and tucked it away in my pocket, trying to steady my breathing.

At first, it felt like a temporary arrangement, like something I had to do to keep up the charade. But now, it was different. Living here, spending time with Miracle, and being in a place where everything seemed calm—it almost felt normal. Peaceful, even.I’d grown to care for Miracle in a way I hadn’t expected. Don't get me wrong, I knew I loved her so much, I mean it only made sense right? She was my daughter. But the bond grew and it was very intense. Almost like I couldn't do without seeing her for a day. She was such a sweet girl, and the bond I had with her was undeniable. We spent hours together, playing games, reading books, and just talking. I knew I was missing so much time with her while I had been away, but I was here now, and I made sure to savor every moment.Lucas had become closer to me in the past few weeks. We’d shared more mom
