Kael’s P.O.V

As soon as I heard that Talon was going to be at the party, I couldn't contain my excitement. I had been waiting for this day for weeks, and finally, my chance to actualize my plans. But my elation was short-lived when I realized that

Naya was missing. I needed Naya to be there, but she wasn’t.

Where could she be? I asked rhetorically. I couldn't stop blaming myself for not carrying out my operations correctly.

A little error from me could spoil the whole plans that took me weeks to accomplish. It was Naya or no other woman. And, the party was my own closest chance to getting things sorted out.

Moreover, I felt that Talon wasn’t treating Naya the right way. Not like I was the best person for her, but I believed that we could start building something up.I immediately ordered my men to search for her, and after a while, they found her.

But to my horror, I discovered that she was in my custody. I had forgotten to tell my men not to kidnap her as I had planned. I was fur

    I walked into the room to talk to Naya, but as soon as I saw her, I knew something was wrong. I blamed myself for being too insensitive towards her earlier on. I hated the way I always ended up reacting whenever I was angry. She was crying in silence, and my heart immediately went out to her. I went over to her and held her close, cuddling with her until she eventually fell asleep in my arms. It took a while, but her facial expression while she slept was amazing. She was sleeping peacefully and that gave me joy. It was obvious that she hadn’t gotten much rest in a long while. It was a peaceful moment, and I was grateful to be able to comfort her.The next morning, Naya expected me to be at work, but I was still in bed with her. I had a terrible headache, and I couldn't even move a muscle. Naya called the family doctor immediately, and they found out that I had fallen terribly ill. My dad didn't want to believe that I hadn't fallen sick in years. I was generally a healthy person, a

    Kael's P.O.VIt was the day of our party, and I was excited. I had been planning this for months, and everything was going according to plan. The decorations were up, the food was ready, and the guests were starting to arrive. I was just waiting for Talon's family to show up, but they were running late.As I eagerly awaited their arrival, I couldn't help but feel a bit anxious. This was a big day for Talon, and I didn't want anything to go wrong. It was a day that he’d breathe his last. He had to die and I didn’t want to mess things up. So when Talon's family arrived without him and Naya, I started to get a little worried. I assumed they were just running late, but as time passed and they still hadn't shown up, my anxiety grew.I assumed they would come later, so I didn't think much of it. The party was going well, and everyone was having a good time. Talon and Naya finally appeared, and I was thrilled to see them. Talon looked sharp in his grey colored suit, and Naya was absolutely

    Talon's P.O.VMy heart was pounding in my chest as I watched Naya being pulled away from me by Kael. I wanted to fight back, but they showed me the gun, and I knew they would shoot me or her if I resisted. I was scared to lose her, scared for the first time in my life. I couldn't bear the thought of living without her. I didn’t know how it got to the extent of me not wanting to live without her. I used to hate her. I hated every single thing she did. Nothing she did impressed me. Everything seemed to be falling apart the moment I began to develop some sort of feelings for her.My heart kept pounding in mychest as I watched Naya being dragged away from him by Kael. "What do you want from us?" I asked, my voice shaking with fear.Kael didn't answer. Instead, he pulled Naya closer to him, his grip tightening around her arm.I ranted angrily at Kael, "Let her go or I'll kill you!"Kael just chuckled, "You don't have the guts to do that. You’re powerless right now. Now you can see that

    Talon’s P.O.VI watched as they took Naya away on a stretcher, her beautiful body looking so fragile and vulnerable. The family rushed around her, making sure she was comfortable and getting her the first aid she needed. I knew I should have gone with them to the hospital, but something inside me refused to move.So, I stood there, watching them leave until they disappeared from view. I could feel the tears threatening to spill over, but I stubbornly refused to cry. I turned and walked away, my mind in turmoil as I tried to sort through my jumbled thoughts. It wasn't that I didn't care about Naya. I did, more than I could ever put into words. She was my fake wife who turned out to be my best friend, the person who had been there for me through thick and thin. I couldn't imagine a world without her in it. But at the same time, my heart was in chaos. I had been struggling with my feelings for Naya for a long time, but I had never been brave enough to admit it to myself. I couldn't acc

    Naya’s P.O.VI couldn't believe what was happening. My husband, Talon was a complete mess. And now, Eric had taken him away from me, leaving me alone and confused. I demanded answers from Nelson, who had been trying to get me angry at Talon and Eric. I knew that he never liked me. But he was the only available person to question and he was quick to give me answers to all my questions. "He's been drinking and partying too much lately," Nelson said, his voice dripping with contempt. "It's dad's fault. He's a terrible influence on him."I looked at Nelson, my heart racing. "What do you mean it's dad's fault? What's going on?"Nelson rolled his eyes. "Dad has been too soft on Talon. He lets Talon do whatever he wants and that has gotten to him. He no longer cares about the feelings of others, especially yours.”I looked at him in confusion. “I don’t understand what’s going on here. Please, tell me in clearer terms.”“You know what's going on.

    Talon's P.O.V“Talon, how could you be so careless?” my dad scolded. “You didn’t even think about your health and your loved ones. You just did the craziest things. How could you? Since when did you become a drunk?”“Dad, you have no right to scold me. I have no answer to your many questions. I’m old enough to do whatever I want,” I said rudely.“You think so?” he inquired.“I know so. This is my life, dad. Let me live it!” I yelled. I had no idea what was going on with me. I never believed that I could be so rude to my dad. But, at the moment everything was happening so fast.“You don’t get to talk to me in that manner, Talon. I’m still your father.”I couldn't believe how foolish I was for losing control of myself like that. Eric had every right to scold me for my reckless behavior, but I wasn't in the mood to listen to him. Instead, I lashed out and demanded to be left alone.“Please, I need to be left alone. I don’t have anything else to say to you.”“You’re so unbelievable. So y

But, in the meantime, we need to have a child. Focus on bearing a child for me. That is the only hindrance for me right now. Once you bear a child for me, I’d have the inheritance. After all, you’d get paid for it.”“You don’t have to constantly remind me that I’m only here for the money. I know that already,” she said calmly.“Better! Then just do your job while I do mine. There’s no time to waste. We don’t have much time left. I don’t want my dad to start becoming suspicious. A lot has happened between us already and this time, we need to get things straight.”“It’s all on you, Talon. You’re the one who needs to do your part because I’m already doing more than mine.”I was frustrated because I felt like she didn't understand our situation. She believed that I wasn’t doing enough.

Naya was feeling better after a good night's sleep, but she was still nervous about what was to come.As we drove to the courthouse, I could feel the tension in the air.

One moment, we were all sitting at the diner, laughing and chatting away, and the next, Nelson tried to convince my personal maid to poison me. What did I ever do to him?

But, I was lucky that the maid didn’t let it happen. Soon enough, Talon called Eric and he was in the house in no time. Eric slapped Nelson across the face when Talon narrated everything to him. The sound of the slap echoed through the room, and everyone fell silent. I was in shock, my eyes wide as I stared at Eric. Eric didn't say anything, just stood there with his jaw clenched. Nelson, on the other hand, looked stunned. He put a hand to his cheek, which was now red and stinging.Talon immediately went into action, trying to calm me down. "Hey, it's okay," he said, putting a hand on my shoulder.

But, as time went on, Naya grew more and more impatient, and I could no longer try to calm her down. She just needed to be given food. She couldn't control the anger she was feeling inside. "Where is the maid? I'm starving. It's been an hour since she said she would bring me food,” Naya said in frustration.I got up from the couch and walked towards the dining room, curious to see what was going on. As I tried to enterthe kitchen, I saw the maid standing nervously by the door. She had a tray of food in her hands, but she seemed reluctant to bring it to Naya."Naya, the maid is here with your food," I said, trying to ease the tension in the ro

But the conversation took a strange turn, and before I knew it, we were discussing Talon and his ongoing property dispute with his brother.When Nelson arrived, I could see the guilt in his eyes. He knew that he had let his down, and he didn't know how to make things right. That was my own version of the look I saw on his face. I asked him why he hadn't been there for me when I needed him the most, and he told me that he was afraid of making things worse. I was taken aback by his response.
