Kiara:
“Tatiana, love, how are you feeling?” I asked Tatia.
“I’m fine, Auntie Kiara” Tatiana smiled as I sat down beside her. Having to have to find a lie to give her. I didn’t want to tell her that her mum had betrayed the family, the little girl would be devastated and I didn’t want her breaking inside.
“Sweet love, mum travelled…”
“I know, Auntie Kiara, dad told me this morning. He said that she needed to see a doctor for me, and wanted me to help take care of Timur. I would need to make sure that he was safe, and as his big sister, I would also keep him safe” Tatiana said proudly. I smiled and nodded, kissing her cheek. I was glad that Ivan took part in speaking to his daughter about this, despite whatever he was feeling, he was sure to remain composed and controlled for his daughter’s sake, and for that; I couldn’t help but feel thankful.
“How about I ta
Alessio:“What do you mean they’ve been kidnapped, Alexis?” I asked wide eyed. Alexis’s eyes were wide in fear as he showed me his phone, revealing the footage where Thomas was carrying my wife and Natasha dragging my daughter through the exit “why didn’t anyone stop them? How the fuck did they go unseen this time?”“Alexandra pressed the emergency trigger on her watch calling for help before they were out of the Estate. She couldn’t call for help verbally…” the door was knocked breaking our conversation and I raised my hand, stopping Alexis before calling for whoever it was to come in.Christian and Sienna walked inside, both of them hand in hand and I raised an eyebrow at the pair. They both seemed to be relaxed for the first time since they arrived to the house. Sienna seemed to be in her personal space despite everything that she’s been through over the past few weeks.“Hop
Kiara:I opened my eyes in a dark room.My head spun as I tried processing where I was, and what happened.“Mum?” I heard my daughter calling my name “mummy, please open your eyes”Her begging had me snapping my eyes open despite the pain I felt in my head, and the beeping I heard in my ears as I fought to process what was going on. My daughter was tied up in front of me, her eyes wide as she looked at me.I tried moving from the chair that I was sitting on only to realize that I was tied to it “no use trying to run, Kiara”“Kyle” I snapped glaring at him. His eyes met mine, and he smirked, walking toward me.“I believe the right term is dad, but it seems like you have forgotten your manners over the years” he said approaching me. He walked toward me, and put his hand on my chin, forcing me to look at him.“Leave my daughter alone, she has nothing to do with your
Third Person Point of View:Kiara drove at top speed knowing that she needed to reach her husband before it was too late. Her heart racing against her ribcage with each passing second. She was glad that Ivan had called one of his friends to clear the road for them, blocking all the cars as to ensure no traffic. But they couldn’t tell them where to come in fear that the cops would end up taking the whole thing into an unnecessary case.Knowing what her father was planning, memories of the night she believed she lost her mother played back in her head, breaking her heart. But the woman knew that it wasn’t the time to dwell on that now. She had her daughter in the car, and she NEEDED to get to her husband.They reached the bridge, the one place she couldn’t forget no matter how much time she spent away from the place. She had tried to forget, she forced herself to do so, but she knew that she couldn’t; the pain she has lived on that bridge w
Alessio:I forced my eyes open as I heard my wife’s sobs by my side. Her head laid on the edge of the bed on her hands as she held on to my right hand.I have been hearing them nonstop for a while now; however, no matter how hard I tried to get my eyes open, to try and at least comfort her, I couldn’t. I shut my eyes again as the light blinded me only to force myself to open them to meet her familiar green ones. Her eyes were wide in surprise and it was seconds later when she wrapped her arms around my neck, hugging me tightly.I smiled as wrapped my left arm around her, my right arm restrained with the IV and whatever other liquids they had me plugged to. Her lips met mine before I could process, and I couldn’t help the chuckle that left my weakened body. She pulled away to look me in the eye and I smiled running my hand over her jawline, frowning when I noticed how tired she looked “Kia…”She took my hand in hers, so
Kiara:“Alessio, are you sure you can do this? You’ve just woken up two days ago, and even the doctors said that you should be on bedrest” I asked helping my husband with his shirt like I always did. The pain in my arm and head from hitting the concrete floor still throbbed, and though the doctors did tell me that there was no broken bones; I still had a hard time moving my left arm.“Yes, baby girl, I will go and do this, and you will not say a word about it. Plus, you’ll be resting in bed. Don’t think that because I haven’t spoken about it yet, that you’re off the hook for over exhausting yourself this morning. Had it not been for Artur, you would have fallen down the stairs” Alessio scolded. I playfully rolled my eyes at my husband’s behavior. The man was treating me as if I was some five year old child, and though I may or may not deserve it, I didn’t like it. His blue eyes were fixed on my green one
Alessio:“Ops” I said after breaking Kyle’s nose. The man’s eyes rolled to the back of his head as he tried getting them to focus on me. But whenever he did try to look me in the eye, I would punch him in the face, reminding him who stood in front of him.“So, you have two options, and these options are only because I love my beauty” I said looking him in the eye “you will either answer, and get a quick death, or stall, and I will be sure you’re begging for it as you give me each answer I want”I dragged my knife over his thigh, cutting it as I did, watching as Kyle struggled to keep himself quiet. His eyes widening before squinting shut as he bit his bottom lip. He looked me in the eye, tears forming in them, tears which he tried blinking away, drawing blood from his bottom lip.“You wouldn’t find them. They would have been long gone” Kyle whimpered and I nodded stabbing his knee wit
Kiara:“The concussion has indeed returned to its first phase of not healing, but you shouldn’t be too worried about it, Kiara as it would heal with time. Only this time you would need to take your medication instead of waiting for it to heal on its own” Dr. Jason said looking me in the eye. He kept his eyes on mine, avoiding Alessio’s as he knew that my husband would mostly be on edge as he heard the news. Hell, even I was frightened as he spoke of them despite his calm demeanor “the reason for the headaches is a blood clot that happened when you hit your head the second time; it would heal with time, but you would need to take it very easy as not to risk it giving you a stroke”“These medicines would help ease the pain, and you would be needing checkups on a weekly basis until we’re sure that you can be on your own without them. For now, we would be sending two nurses with you, and unless your husband is by your side, t
Alessio:I paced around my office as the doctor’s words played in my head. The way my wife looked so helpless as she asked me to head to the hospital to begin with was yet to escape my mind before the doctor spoke to us at the fucking hospital.Clenching my fists around the glass that was in my hand, it was initially filled with whiskey which I drowned down ages ago. I glared at the wall in front of me before throwing the glass, watching it smash into pieces.How could I let something like this happen? How could I have let my beauty deal with such pain? The woman begged me for the first time to avenge her, and the thing was, I didn’t even know where to begin. Well, I did, but not in the literal state.Kyle was held captive in my hands. But I needed Tatiana. That woman was going to wish she was never born; I was going to be sure of it. I will not even mention Thomas or Natasha. The pair know what their fate would be, and they know that they&rsq
Alessio:I walked inside the bedroom and sighed at my wife’s state.She was sitting on the floor out in the veranda, hugging her knees, and looking into space. Her eyes blank and void of emotion as she processed the heavy events that happened today. I couldn’t blame her either, if I was standing now; it was because I knew that she needed someone to hold her.Years back, it was me in her shoes, and her in mine. I was shattered after being forced to kill my sister, and she had found out that her mother has plotted her death. She buried her pain inside for my sake during that period, being my strength.I opened the door, slowly walking out, and careful not to frighten her. I slowly wrapped my arms around her, hugging her tightly from the back, and it was seconds later when she gave into my touch.“Kia, you haven’t eaten anything since last night” I whispered to her. She has been standing strong for everyone, but I could s
Kiara:I watched as Alessio walked out with mum, dad, Thomas, Natasha, and Arda.He brought them all to their feet, and had them stand in front of everyone in the yard.The kids were at school, meaning that none of them would be seeing this.Grace’s eyes watered as she looked at her husband. His eyes met hers, and despite knowing that he broke everything she had in her, he mouthed a silent “I’m sorry”I knew that it broke him that he took away the one thing he wanted most. The fact that doctors told her that she might not have another baby not only broke her, but his heart too. He didn’t say it out loud, but he didn’t need to, if I knew Thomas in any possible way; I read his pain through his eyes.Alessio looked at me, his eyes telling me what his mouth couldn’t; he didn’t want me to see this, and in all honesty, neither did I. I didn’t want to live with the image of everyone I ever loved
Alessio:I followed my beauty as she walked out of the basement.All the color in her face was drained her hands shook.“Kia…” Kiara didn’t seem to see or hear Grace whose eyes were wide as she took in her best friend’s state. I shook my head at her, the woman was yet to face her own pain when she saw her husband tied up on the chair “Alessio, what’s going on?”“I’ll explain later, but I think that you might want to go inside with Ivan later” I said following Kiara up the stairs. Her mother’s words were harsh on her daughter, and I knew that my beauty wanted to be alone; however, I wasn’t going to let that happen. She didn’t leave me when I was in pain, she couldn’t expect me to leave her to handle her own pain by herself.Flashback:“You know, I fought to keep you alive when Kyle first found out I was pregnant” Tatiana said lo
Kiara:My heart raced with each step I took toward the basement. Chills ran down my spine with each step I took, and my heart ached as my husband opened the door.Alessio didn’t let me in to see dad when he brought him here, but now, it being the one place he could keep everyone without the kids seeing them; it was the one place where I could see them.My husband’s arm was wrapped around my waist as the two of us walked down the stairs, our steps slow as Alessio tried dragging time. He didn’t want me being in here, I knew that for face; but he knew that there was nothing that he could do about it now. I was already INSIDE the basement; I wasn’t going to go back now. Plus, I didn’t want Alessio telling me that he already told me not to go in there. I wanted to be here, and there was no longer any need for me to be hiding or running away from what I knew was right.The smells of blood, piss, and vomit filled my nostrils, and I
Alessio:I entered the bedroom feeling drained. My whole body was drained of energy after everything that we’ve done and the searches that we’ve been through, I was just thankful that our efforts didn’t go in vain.My eyes catching sight of my beauty who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking out the window as she waited for me. I knew that she wouldn’t be able to sleep with me out of the house for more than two days, and the lack of sleep that I got since was evident in my eyes.I cleared my throat, breaking whatever train of thought my beauty was lost in, snapping her out of her trance. She turned to face me and her eyes lit up as her smile widened. She got up from bed, despite knowing that she shouldn’t much, and ran toward me, wrapping her arms around my neck as she hugged me tightly.“You got me worried sick” she whispered kissing my jawline. She cupped my cheeks to look me in the eye, frowning when she
Kiara:“Don’t you have school tomorrow, love?” I teased Alexandra who smiled. Her eyes meeting mine as a smile danced across her lips knowing that she was up late on a school night, something which she wasn’t allowed to do on regular days.“I do! But Viktor’s screaming woke me up, mum!”“Ah, my little princess” Alessio teased carrying Alexandra. Alex laughed and tried squirming from her father’s touch as he tried tickling her. Alessio kissed her cheek before putting her down. I could tell from his eyes that he was angry; however, knowing my husband, my love wouldn’t be showing his anger to our kids. He would be sure to show it to those he wanted to, but not our kids. Alessio nudged my cheek with his nose and I smiled as he kissed my cheek.“You need to go back to bed, malyshka” Alessio whispered to me. His eyes softening as he looked at me despite the mental battle that I knew h
