Always And Forever Chapter Fourteen
Kathy PovI woke up with a start, checked the wall clock on Louis's bedroom and it was some minutes past seven am, I quickly got up from the bed and looked around the house, but Louis was still not around, I couldn't turn my phone back on to avoid it getting tracked, I should have thought of it getting tracked last night but I was much too nervous, I went to where the house line was kept and dialed his number, it rang and rang but he didn't pick up, I took the house line with me to the living room sat there and called him again, but still no response, I even went as far as calling his cousin Pearl, she too didn't take her to call, worried could no longer be used to describe how I was feeling."Come on Louis,"I said biting down hard on my lips, I fought to keep the tears off my eyes but still a few found their way out, I walked into the kitchen and tried to distract myself by making us breakfast, maybe he will be back before it is ready, I thought.The minutes tickled into hours and s

Cross PovWe spent the night at the hospital, one I didn't want to leave Anna on her own, and also, I didn't want to be in the same space as my parent, I was still mad at what happened, and the media even got wind of it, by this morning it already blew up, I had to wear a face cap and mask as if I was some kind of celebrity, I hated it, hated to be the center of attention, that's why I preferred to stay away from my family, cuz my parents and brothers were almost always on the news, in New York I barely made TV appearances unless it is business-related, I keep my private life off the news as much as I can."You look like you wanna hit something,"Dean said walking up to me, the hospital finally decided to let us take Anna with us after making sure that we could take care of her, they had wanted her to go into child support but she didn't want that, and the fact that she was already eighteen had helped quicken the decision to let her go with us, still, we had to sign a hell lot of pape
Always And Forever Chapter Sixteen
Kathy PovI spent the whole of the week at Louis or whatever his real name was, at first, I couldn't bring myself to believe that what happened was true, but as the days went by, reality began to dawn on me, I still didn't know what to do, I had no money with me, for the first two days I didn't eat anything but I could only starve my self for just a short time, I had to eat and thankfully there was food in the fridge, I survived on them, but still the food available in the house was fast running out, every day I wake up and think of what I am going to do but nothing seemed to click, I ruined my life myself for believing and trusting a scammer, even when my friends and family told me to stay away, if only I had listened to Juliet, I wouldn't be in this mess, not like there is much I could do right now, I may be sturbborn but I knew I was spoilt, I didn't know how to do a lot of basic things, except cooking because my nanny made sure to teach me how to cook not to mention that I love ea

Cross Pov"Ma, there you go again, I am not listening to you this time,"I said moving away from my mom, she couldn't let this issue pass without interfering, I already told her I didn't want anything to the Stevenson family but my mom said and I quote, 'that I should meet up with her father, like why would I do that, if anyone is supposed to meet up with anybody then it should be them, they should be apologizing for the shame they caused my family, even after my dad gave an Iffical statement, the press and media still talked about it for the whole if last week, my mom being the peace maker she Is, She has been disturbing me about going to the Stevensons for the whole week and I refused but she wasn't relenting, I am scheduled to leave for New York tomorrow as I am taking Anna for a checkup today, she is doing well, she has gotten used to my family, not totally though but better than the day she first came in, I am going with my mom since I signed as her caregiver the day we left the
Always And Forever Chapter Eighteen
Kathy PovI stood in front of our mansion and for the first time I didn't know what to do, I didn't know if I should knock or just walk in, I felt like a total stranger, I gathered up my last drop of confidence and walked up to the gate, the giant gate looking so big and scary for the first time ever, I had on a plain T-shirt and faded pair of jeans that I got at a cheap price at the market, it would be the cheapest thing I have ever worn, I didn't bother to do my makeup and my hair was packed up in a messy bun, I looked miserable even to my eyes, I walked close to the gate and before I could knock, the security man came out, he looked shocked to see me, but quickly got over it and ushered me in, I guess he didn't know yet that I am no longer part of the family, I didn't remember his name as I wasn't good at remembering people's names."Are my parents home?"I asked in a rather tiny voice."Yes, your mom is home but the dad is not, he left for a meeting a while ago,"He disclosed and

Cross PovWhat the fuck?"I screamed as the car came to a sudden stop, making me hit my head against the car seat, I looked up wondering why the driver suddenly stopped."What happened?""Sir a lady, she.."He seemed to be in shock, I looked up as the said lady fell to the ground, I panicked that moment, fearing he might have hit her but I couldn't remember hearing the car hit something."Did you hit her?"I asked as I got out of the car, he followed, he didn't hit her though, she might have fainted from the shock, great now I have to cancel my flight again and land at the hospital for a second time within two weeks, remind me not to come back to Arizona, at least he didn't hit her, I helped carry her and told him to get on the car, a few people were watching us but no one came to help, as expected, I checked her pulse to make sure she was okay, she seemed to be normal but I wasn't a professional so I couldn't really tell."Please hurry up dude, I don't want someone to die on me,""Th

Kathy Pov"What did you say?"I asked even though I heard him perfectly the first time, I didn't trust him, was he going to make me come with him and then kill me? Or he was just mocking me, this wasn't the Cross that I remembered though, he has changed a lot in both appearance and the way he talks, the Cross I knew before would have told the driver to bring me to the hospital and maybe got on a taxi to get to the airport.'Well, he didn't know who you were,'My mind said and I agreed but still, he looked more approachable and was even talking to me."I said come with me to New York, on second thought don't, I don't need to deal with you anyway, you are not having the best time of your life right now so that's enough punishment,"He said."Why? Don't you want me to suffer more?""Well you are suffering right now, and it doesn't look like it will get better for you any time soon, do you even have a place to sleep?""None of your business, so can I go now?""Hmm, yeah, right after you c
Always And Forever Chapter Twenty-one
Cross Pov"Anything?"I asked again."Yes, anything,"She replied, she looked like she was hopeless for real because that would be the only reason she is begging me to take her back, I thought about it hard, I didn't have anything to ask for now, but I think if I think hard enough I will figure it out."Well, I was going to marry you anyway even though I didn't want the marriage either, so I will think of something and you said anything right?"She seemed to be rethinking her options, I waited for her to go back on her words but she nodded in agreement."I wanna hear it again, I will record it just in case you decide to pull a fast one on me,"I said as I brought out my phone and tapped on the video record."Now say it again from the beginning while looking at the camera.""Do I have to? It looks childish though,""That's not up to you to decide little witch,""First of all I am not little, secondly I am not a witch,"She answered."How old are you?""Non..**""Okay, no need for the d

Cross PovIt was a delight to watch my wife grow bigger and bigger with our baby each day that turned into weeks and then months, we returned back to New York temporarily, spent just two weeks, and went back home to Arizona, we both decided it was better to start a family back home in Arizona, Max who had been the runaway kid soon became the new me as dad instructed him to go learn how to run the company, of course, the poor guy didn't want to, I couldn't blame him but after talking to him, he decided to eventually go but he firmly told Dad that he had no intentions of running the company so even though I was back home in Arizona, I still had the major post there and still went there for important meetings and business dealings, Katherine and I moved out of the mansion as I didn't want to keep leaving in my parent's house, I wanted a home for us, and we both got a beautiful, not so bigger but homey house in a calm environment in Arizona, everything was just going fine for us, this was

Kathy PovIt took a while for me to adjust to the life without my baby, no I couldn't adjust, I still cried at night, I still blamed myself and I don't think I will ever get over the feeling of loss, Ginna had been right about one thing, she left an unforgettable wound that time was doing nothing to heal, not even seeing Ginna and Louis getting sentenced helped no, it's being over four months since the incident but it was still fresh in my memory, especially when I think about the fact that I would have been huge with child now almost getting ready for delivery."Baby?"Cross called, Cross, he has been an angel, my only constant aside from our family, we were still in Arizona and I didn't plan on returning to New York anytime soon, I had trauma, for me New York was a bad place where I only had bad memories, here in Arizona I could at least be comfortable, I had my both families and also Anna's twins, they were a source of joy to me, a glimpse of what it would have been like if my baby

Cross Pov"Doctor, when is my wife going to wake up? It's been over four days,"I asked the doctor, who didn't seem to have an answer, hearing that our baby was no more was the sadness thing I have ever heard, it brought me down on my knees, I cried my eyes out that day for the chance u had and lost, if only I had gotten to Katherine earlier, we wouldn't have lost our baby and my wife wouldn't still be asleep after four whole days, that day had been the worst days of my life, first having to watch the peramedics work on Kathy and bring her to the hospital, to waiting for the doctor to come and give me news and when the news finally came my worst nightmare had been confirmed, they couldn't do anything to save our baby as whatever Ginna had done couldn't be undone, in that moment, I felt like killing some one, felt liking making Ginna pay for everything with her blood, she has been arrested, that was all I knew for now, Louis who had turned himself in at the last moment had told the pol

Kathy's PovI woke up to strong pain, my whole lower abdomen hurt, I looked around the room for Pearl, she wasn't there, where could she have even, I saw her before I went to sleep, fearing for her safety, I tried to get up but the pain was getting out of hand, my whole lower abdomen hurt and my baby was in distress, I tried to shout and call for help but I couldn't get much out as I was weak from struggling with Ginna last night, she had come after they both left after talking to Cross and had tried to force me to drink whatever she was giving e, I didn't know what it was but I knew what she was doing, I figured it out, she didn't have a problem with me but my baby, she was trying to kill my baby, I couldn't let her do that even though she had succeeded in giving some of that stuff again.I looked around the room wishing for a miracle to come by."You are awake?"Louis said entering the room, he didn't look happy or anything like he was after the call with Cross, maybe he and Ginna f

Cross POVThe next morning, I was up early, I didn't want to waste any time, the plan we had seemed good and easy enough, I wanted my wife back, this morning I had to call my parents ad hers, I couldn't keep it from them anymore, they deserved to know what's going on with us, I called my mom first."Son, what's going on, you never call me,""Mom, it's Kathy, she has been kidnapped,"I revealed as the tears started again, I couldn't just seem to get the tears from coming."What? When did that happen?""About four days ago,""And you are just telling me, Cross what did you think you are doing? Why didn't you tell us as soon as it happened?""Mom, I am sorry, I didn't want you guys to worry,""Well, we would be whether you tell us now or later, what did I tell you about keeping things to yourself?""I am sorry mom,"I replied, I felt guilty for not telling them sooner, I should have listened to Dean and just told them."Are you okay? Have you had any information? We will be in New York

Cross PovIt's been three days, three whole days, and still no news of Katherine, I was slowly dying inside, I felt like this was all my fault, I was the one that brought Ginna back into her lives, and Louis that bastard came with Ginna if only I had not associated with Ginna, the police went over to Ginna's house again but they didn't find anything, they have long declared them as suspects, they didn't call, if they called I would have given them all the money they requested for just so they can give me back my wife but no call, nothing, my living room was filled with people again, Marilyn, Dean, Grace and the police officers, they showed up earlier today and had been here for a while, we have been going over all the stuff we have gone through before to see if we left out anything but there was nothing, nothing at all, there was no clue as to where they might have taken Katherine, and until they called we couldn't even make any move, it was furstrating and nerve wrecking, if these pe

Kathy Pov"Good morning, it's time to start,"Ginna announced as she entered the room that Pearl and I have been kept, Pearl was still not awake and I was beginning to worry for her, I tried waking her up when they had untied me to give me food last night but she didn't respond, at least she was breathing fine, I hope she wakes up soon."What do you want from me Ginna?"I asked eyeing her, it wasn't as if I was scared of her, she was the one scared because if she wasn't she won't have had me tied if only I could take off this damn piece of rope."You find out real soon, but first the conversation, you remember? We were having one the other day,"She replied I remember what she was on about."What about that?""You wanted to know how you ruined my life remember? Well, I will tell you just how I am going to ruin your own life, don't worry, you will make it out of here alive, I don't have any plans of killing you but then after I am done with you, I damn well sure you will wish you were

Cross PovI got home a little later than I expected, already anticipating growling for not keeping to my promise of coming home early, I tried to call Kathy though, but she didn't take her calls, it was nothing new as I was used to her not taking her calls, I went straight to our room ready to see her pout and frame anger, I opened the door but she wasn't in our room."Baby?"I called going over to the restroom, she wasn't there either, the toon looked just like it did when we left this morning, I know because I was the last person to leave the room, I went downstairs to the kitchen thinking she might be there with Nora but no one was in the kitchen, I went to the garden where she usually goes to cool off, but again she wasn't there."Where is she?"I asked myself walking to the staff quarters, the possibility of her being there was low but since I couldn't find her anywhere in the house I had to check, I met Kris and Betty there."Betty, have you seen my wife?""No, sir, she hasn't c
