last update Last Updated: 2025-02-01 00:06:38

CHAPTER 41

BELLA

The family reunion was way more intense than I expected, especially the way Gabriel reacted when he saw us. I didn’t want to be held responsible for giving the man a heart attack! I considered going to him, but I couldn’t because his mum had me in a tight hug and was an emotional wreck, and then before I knew it, I too started crying buckets loads of tears . When things settled a bit and Gabriel managed to pull himself together, he approached me, took hold of my hand, and asked me to follow him. Once we were in the room, he kissed me! I was truly surprised cos I mentally prepared myself for maybe a hard slap across my face and harsh words. Watching him with Athena got me feeling all guilty for running away. In my defense, I truly believed I did the right thing, I thought he was a cheater and made a mockery out of me! I got really annoyed when he went on and on about what he had to go through after I left. I also suffered from leaving! At least he had MY brother! Also

    CHAPTER 42BELLA Athena had woken up and stared at Gabriel for a few seconds and then rested on his chest again. It’s as though she already knows who he is. I asked him if he wanted to help me bathe her, and he eagerly said yes. I told him that his training started with that cos he would need to get the hang of getting diapers changed, dressing her up, and preparing bottles amongst other nitty-gritty stuff, too. We started off with making sure the water temperature was just right and then settled her into the baby bath, I normally place one hand at the back of her head for support and use the other to lather her body with her body wash, then use her special baby sponge to clean her body and rinse her off. Gabriel was watching everything like a hawk and, looking scared, said that he doesn’t think he’d be able to do it just with one hand, then he started with the what-ifs! What if his hand hurts her head, what if she slips into the bath and drowns, and other stuff which honestly didn’t

    CHAPTER 43BELLA The next morning, after waking up, I headed first to check up on my baby girl. When I got out of my room, the strong scent of freshly made coffee and a mix of toast, bacon, and eggs hit my nose. Gabriel had Athena in his arms and looked at me with a broad smile on his face and then said, “Good morning, my love. I hope you slept well. Our princess and I definitely did. How about you go wash up and come have your breakfast before it gets cold. I’ll take care of our princess till you’re done and then I want to head out for a run” So, rubber mouth here, is all chirpy this early in the morning and stood in front of me looking smoking hot! His training vest showed off his god-like form, and those super sexy muscles looked like they were going to rip the vest to shreds. His body looked even better than before. I was shamelessly gawking and most probably drooling over the eye candy in front of me, and he was enjoying every bit of it! I silently scolded myself to pull myself

    CHAPTER 44BELLA My jaw dropped as we made our way into the flat. It felt like I was walking into a completely different place. What caught my attention first was the brand new couch, which replaced the old one and the huge TV on the wall. Gabriel clearly spent the day giving the flat a face lift and an expensive one, too. “Care to explain” I asked him, and he responded “About the flat or that son of a b**ch?” I told him both, and he said that he didn’t really do much in the flat. He just replaced a couple of things. It didn’t look like a ‘couple ’ of things, I was yet to see the rest of the place and after I voiced that, and being in the mood he was in he growled at me and said that I should sue him then for wanting our princess and I to have the best of things! Bad move, Knight! Bad move! He has my baby girl in his arms and talking to me in that tone of voice! Hell No! I was not going to take his foul mood and angry tone like some obedient fool! I let him have it! I told him that w

    CHAPTER 45BELLA Athena had started to cry for attention, and I rushed off to her. Once I had calmed her down, I brought her out, and Gabriel who’s face automatically lit up at the sight of her, reached out to take her in his arms. She was full of smiles as she went to him. Her tiny hands made its way to his cheeks as he spoke to her lovingly and waltzed around the room with her. While father and daughter were having their bonding session, I excused myself and went to my room and called up Erica. She, too, was just as worked up as me about what had happened earlier. Neo did explain his side of the story to her after we had left. He told her that the reason why he didn’t bother defending himself again when Crystal and her lover, painted him as the number one villain, was because he was hurt and disappointed that Gabriel already doubted him and didn’t believe him when he first denied the accusations. They had been so close that people mistook them for siblings, and that was how they be

BELLA It’s been a few days now, and both Erica and I have not been able to get Gabriel and Neo together to try and resolve their issues. Not for the lack of trying, They both were just too stubborn! I had told Gabriel everything that Erica had told me the very next day after my call to her, but he refused to take the blame for anything! He said that if Neo had known him as well as he claimed to have known him, then he should have fought harder to make him see things for what they were and not have chosen the easy way out! Neo, on the other hand, insisted he did nothing wrong, and Gabriel owed him an apology. Erica and I decided to just let them be and hoped that they would come to their senses soon. In the meantime, they could carry on behaving like little boys! Gabriel had left home rather earl

I asked for the video to be sent to me, too, so that my men could also run a search. The detective on the scene was hesitant at first but gave the go-ahead. I immediately forwarded it to Alex to get my men on it. I had just sent the message when Alex and my dad rushed in. I told Alex to check his phone and to send that video out to our people, but then he gave me a “we need to talk but not here” look and motioned his head towards the door. It was clear that he didn’t want the cops to hear what he had to say. Erica had my princess in her arms and held onto her protectively while she was being questioned by a cop. I walked over and asked if it was necessary as she was in a state of shock and could they no

She’s awake!” I heard her call out. Within seconds, another girl about the same age stood before me. I looked around the room we were in, and it was just empty space except for a bucket near the door. There was no furniture or anything. The girl who sat on the floor and was leaning towards me had a bowl of water on her lap and damp cloth in her hand and appeared to have been cleaning me up with it and I was lying there completely naked, my body was covered in bruises. My hands were above my head, and I felt the clamps clawing into my wrists when I tried to pull on it. I was chained to the wall. I tried to speak, but my throat hurt

READERS DISCRETION IS ADVISEDGABRIEL Alex, Neo, and I split up as we reached the house. We went hunting for our targets whose uniforms we could take. When I caught sight of mine, I moved in silence and only when I stood close behind him did I speak in a whispered voice, “Hello there, your shift ends now, time for you to take a nap” I put my hands around his neck and pressed the pressure points till he was unconscious. I quickly stripped him of his uniform and put it on. I dragged his limp body and placed him out of sight. Our men were dropping Henry’s men like flies. They were not even giving them a chance to alert anyone or call out for help. After all of this is over, I will give all of them a generous incentive! I got into the house, still on high alert. I checked on Alex and Neo, and they confirmed that they were also in u

    CHAPTER 72BELLA We all stopped what we were doing when we heard the excited voices of the children as they returned from the tour of the place, and turned our attention to them.The words, 'totally awesome', 'so cool', 'so pretty', and many more positive comments could be heard. That meant they really liked what they had seen, and that put smiles on our dials. They looked ecstatic, and I heard someone ask, “I saw all that, right? Please tell me it wasn’t a dream” and another voice answered, “You definitely saw it, Tina, we all did. Our rooms are super awesome! Did you see how much clothing and shoes there were in each of our cupboards? Even the door signs with our names on it are so cool. Like our sign is in the shape of a butterfly and says ‘Welcome to Kira’s and Tina’s room.’ We both love butterflies! I think that those aunts who asked us so many questions had something to do with it cos look around, all over are the stuff we and the others told them we liked” I know, I should not

    CHAPTER 71BELLA It’s finally here! The day we had all been eagerly planning and waiting for! Last night, after Gabriel and I checked up on my baby girl and Jacob, we joined the rest of the family in the living room and chatted till late hours of the night.When we left the bakery, the plan was to have an early night so that we would be well rested for the next day, however when we got home, we were all so excited and anxious and could not sleep.We wished the hands of time could move faster. After turning off the alarm and fully awake, I could hear the shower running. Gabriel was up early.I wondered if he managed to even fall asleep. He was so nervous about today. Last night, he seemed so stressed out when we got into bed, and I got worried and asked him what was going on. He then asked me, "What if all we did at Safe Haven were just to our liking and will not be that of the children’s?" I reassured him that I was confident that they were going to love everything about the place and t

    CHAPTER 70NEOBeing amongst loved ones was just what I needed to get my mind off everything that happened with Crystal. The Knight family and our friends are phenomenal beings. Throughout the evening, they kept checking up on me without making it too obvious, though. Every time I caught Mrs. Knight watching me, she had a look of concern on her face, but she quickly changed to a smiling one as soon as she realized I was looking back at her. She is truly an earth angel. Ever since the first time Gabriel had introduced me to her, I was treated as her own son. Even though Gabriel and I had our fallout, I should have maintained contact with her. She had told me that she never believed that I was guilty of any of those things I was accused of but at the time I didn’t think of those who believed in me and whom would be hurt by me taking off. I was too busy drowning in self-pity. I am just glad to have sorted all our issues out now, and we can all move forward. But before I can completely do

    CHAPTER 69BELLA We all were even happier after hearing Alex and Arianna’s good news. I silently wished that joyous moments like those could last forever. Aside from the recent drama with Crystal, it's been so amazing having everyone together. If only Aunt Brie, Amber, and Pearl wouldn’t have to leave, but they had their commitments in Honeyville. During their time here, they have helped to bring us all so much closer together and have helped me a lot after being discharged from the hospital. I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Erica ask who would like to help her out at the bakery to prepare treats for the Welcome Party. Everyone volunteered, Yes, even the guys! They said that they would help with the packaging and other odd jobs we may need them for. Gabriel and I told them that we would go check up on my baby girl and Jacob first and then meet them at the bakery. Thereafter, everyone decided to go home and freshen up and dress more comfortably and return to the bakery at a s

    CHAPTER 68ARIANNA My blabber mouth just had to let the cat out of the bag! That’s so not how I wanted everyone to find out about my relationship with Alex, but at least we got positive reactions. Gabriel totally freaked me out at first, though. My brother had always been on my case to stop messing around and commit to a stable relationship. But I was worried about how he would react when he found out that it was Alex I had decided to commit to. I shamelessly flirted with Alex every chance I got for years. He entertained it and flirted right back. We were very similar in not wanting to commit to any relationship at the time. But as time went by, I guess we both realized that there was more to the playful flirting, but we had too much pride to confess it to each other. I noticed that Alex started getting all jealous whenever he found out that I had been out on dates. He had been my brother’s right hand for many years. Being protective over me was part of the job at first, but it soon

    CHAPTER 67BELLA We got our fur babies all comfortable in bed baskets and packed up into the vehicle, we then headed off to Safe Haven. After we were screened at the gates, we were allowed in, and saying that I was impressed from the time we entered the place would be an understatement! Gabriel sure went all out. From the security gates, the beautiful gardens and children’s outdoor entertainment facilities, it was clearly visible that a very large sum of money was spent to get it looking the way it did and we had yet to see the inside of the place. Gabriel handed over our fur babies to the carers, who fell in love with them immediately and rushed off to get them all comfortable and settled in. As we entered, the house was filled with so much laughter and joy. Our group of women could be heard amongst the voices of the Safe Haven staff, and everyone sounded so happy and excited. Mrs Knight was on a roll. She had everyone on their toes, rearranging stuff and making sure everything was

    CHAPTER 66BELLA Gabriel went with Neo to sort out some paperwork with the doctor. Erica and I remained in the waiting room. I phoned Arianna to check up on my baby girl and Jacob and she told me not to worry, they were both fine and that the house hold staff would be watching over them as all the women were going over to Safe Haven. I am glad they were still going. Then again, Mrs Knight would never put something as important as Safe Haven on hold because of Crystal. After my call to Arianna, I noticed that Erica was lost in deep thought. I gave her a side hug and asked if she was okay. She turned to face me and spoke in a sad tone, “Bell, I know it’s a terrible thing to say right now and will probably make me seem like a cold hearted and selfish person, but I can’t help it, I am glad that Crystal didn’t make it!” I gave her a full hug and told her that I fully understood how she felt, and she had valid reasons to feel all that she was feeling. “Do you think that Neo and I would eve

    CHAPTER 65BELLA Even though we got home rather late from the Café, everyone had waited up for us as they were so worried and curious about what had happened at the station house. We didn’t go into too much detail but gave them the gist of it all. Mr Knight said that there was no way they would allow Neo to suffer any consequences because of his sisters wrong doings. He instructed Gabriel to do whatever he could from his side, and he would also see what he could do from his end. Mrs Knight too said sternly, “I don’t care what you both do, but you better protect that boy! He has suffered more than enough because of that ungrateful wretch!” After much discussion till late into the night, we had all decided that we women would head out to Safe Haven the following morning to inspect the place and make sure it was all prepared and ready for the children to move in . The place already got the thumbs up from Building, Health & Safety, and Child welfare Inspectors. Also, all the registration

    CHAPTER 64ERICA Most of my childhood and right up to early adulthood memories were not so pleasant, and I wished I could totally wipe them out of my mind. My mum and dad were like oil and water and fought all the time. I used to wonder how they ended up married. They never shared that tale. Long story short, when they finally decided to divorce, I thought it was the best thing ever! One would say that I was crazy to have been happy that my parents were splitting up, but trust me, they were HELL together! Having witnessed what they went through, I had lost faith in relationships. I needed to get away from my parents, and as soon as I could, I moved out of Honeyville and headed for the city, and started to rebuild my life. My mum and I kept in contact, but my dad distanced himself from me. He seemed to have divorced his daughter, too! I was so angry at first, but I decided that I was never going to force anyone to love me and especially not my so-called father! Once I settled in the c
