(Sebastian’s POV).I did not expect Suzanne would come to my office building that morning. I had made it clear for her not to come to see me for personal matters at the office. She broke the rules. And I was furious about it.She wanted more money to invest in a project that I knew was not going to be successful. For years I have been supporting her family’s business and invested money that had no return.All was for one reason. Saving my son.After I had refused to give her the money, she threatened to stop giving her blood for my son. And I was given a month to prepare for the wedding that she had planned for us, if I ever needed her blood transfusion again.What a morning!Her presence had spoilt my mood to carry on my day in the office. How I wish I could cut that invisible rope Suzanne had tied around my neck. I could not believe that I had to marry her.Taking my phone out from my pocket, I made a call to the doctor that was in charge to find a cure for my son. One of it involv
(Sebastian’s POV).I blocked her way not allowing her to get past me. Letting out a slight growl, I placed my hand at the wall behind her head. “I hired you. I paid you. All to work in getting us a win for this f*cking defamation case. Not to waste time on having fun and flirting with my staff”“Fun? Flirting?” she asked without looking or genuinely smiling at me.I wondered why she could get along well with Westin and my legal team. Laughing and smiling. Flipping her hair showing her long and smooth looking neck.But her face turned sour when I was in presence. And the fact that she could hardly look at me, angered me much.She slides her body away from me and sighed, “Define fun to you? Did you not see I was working with your legal team and Westin? I do not think that was fun, Mr Strauss. And flirting is something in your own imagination. Say that again, I would end up suing you”Hold on. She called Westin by his name and called me Mr Strauss?I took one deep breath and stroke my c
(Sebastian’s POV).After the call I received from Dr Kwan, the news about my son’s deteriorating health was something I could not accept. Suzanne’s blood was again needed for temporary measures.With heavy heart, I had to call her and apologise. Needed her blood to get my son healthy again. It was not something I was proud of to do.We went to Sebastian’s Restaurant. Not mine, unfortunately. It was one of the best restaurants in Emerald City. Getting a table during peak hours, was not easy.But I knew the owner. A table would always be there for me.Suzanne was all smile when she came to meet me at the entrance of the restaurant. A peck on my cheeks were given by her. While she looked happy, I looked bored.“I knew you would call. Our fate is intertwined. You just need to accept it. You need me, Sebastian” she touched my arm but I gently removed her hand.“Let’s just get it over with. I’ll pass you the money you want and I need you to go to the Hospital immediately. My son will be th
(Akira’s POV).At the next day, I came early to work at the office hoping not to bump into Sebastian. I heard he would usually come a little late to work as he would prefer to spend time with Samuel before the boy goes to school.That was pretty sweet to know about.Although Sebastian was said to be an arrogant man that was difficult to deal with, he was a different man when it comes to his son. My son.Well, on the flip side, Henry said it would not be easy to get full custody for my boy as Sebastian was said to be a good father material. And my son loved him very much.With me who had been absent from Samuel’s life, my case to get custody of my son was not currently be in favour of me.But I would find a way!For seven years, Sebastian had the luxury to be with my son. It was my turn to do so.“Good morning, Miss West” I yelped hearing someone greeted me before I opened the door to my luxurious looking office room. I did not know where he came from all of a sudden.“Good morning. U
(Akira’s POV).I hid behind a concrete wall, shielding myself from being shot at. The shots were coming from many angles. I could guess there were at least two of them shooting at me.Was it meant for a warning?If they were hired to kill me, I would be dead long ago. I had nothing on me to defend myself except for the walls of the room that was obviously made from cheap materials.It felt as if they wanted to hurt me but not to kill me. If they wanted to kill me, it would not be long for them to come to the room that I was at and shoot me on the head point blank.Earlier when I had arrived at the Motel, my colleague Jacob had sensed something was rather odd about this place. There were only two persons present at the whole Motel it seemed. One was the well-dressed receptionist woman and the other was supposed to be the one called MachoMan.The name Ron was used to rent out the room stayed by MachoMan. There was not much details about this man named Ron. Molly said it seemed he wante
(Akira’s POV).“What’s wrong with you?” I asked seeing Sebastian walking in a weird way. I hid a smile as I saw him groan in pain when he sat on a chair. Someone must have kicked his balls.“Shut up, Akira” he said and fixed his pants, “I thought you were going to die. I came here as fast as I could. A little thank you would be nice”He was mumbling his words without looking at me. “Awww, you cared for me. That’s cute”I chuckled and pushed my attacker’s face back down on the wooden floor, “I can take care of myself, Mr Strauss”“You disobeyed my order, Akira. If only you listened to me, this would not happen!” He scoffed and looked away while making some calls. “Stubborn woman”I rolled my eyes and pushed the gun closer to my attacker’s head to stop him from moving too much. Then, the broken door to the room burst open. I smiled seeing who stood at the door, “Westin. You came?”I looked from Westin and Sebastian. The latter was not liking me looking friendly with Westin at all.Was
(Sebastian’s POV).Seeing the caller ID being Suzanne, I had rejected her calls twice. I was not in the mood to talk to her. My mind was focused on finding Ron to get the bottom of things.Firstly, I needed to know why was he having a picture of my son on the board in his room?I did not want my son in his revenge plan. I would make sure of it. If he ever got close to my son, I would end Ron’s life!‘RING! RING!’Again, that b*tch was calling me. I was about to switch off my phone not wanting to see her name flashing on the screen of my car.“You can answer her call. It looks urgent” Akira said and gave me a half smile. “Pretend I’m not here”Well, it could be urgent. It could be about Samuel. So, I had answered it in an annoyed tone, “What?”“Sebastian, what took you so long to answer?”“Make it quick. What do you want?”“Well, I just call to remind you about our appointment with the wedding planner tomorrow. Don’t forget to show up at the boutique”“I’m busy. Not tomorrow”“But we
(Sebastian’s POV).I felt her trembling hand holding mine. Before she let go of it, I held her hand back and whispered while looking at her pretty face. Seated closely next to her, my heart skipped a beat.I was trying very hard to calm my breathing when I spoke my words, “Stay in the car. Call Westin. Send him our location. I’m going in”“Sebastian, it is not safe” she said before I moved to exit the car leaving her behind.Outside, I exhaled my breath sharply. It has been a while since a woman made me feel that nervous when I was around her. I needed to get her out of my head. Having a romantic relationship with my lawyer would definitely be a bad thing to do.I then removed my gun from my pocket and moved quietly towards the warehouse.The lock to the entrance door seemed broken. Someone had forced entry into the building. At the side of the building, I could see Ron’s superbike parked behind a large tree.Not many knew about this place as it was owned by my uncle William. It was
(Akira’s POV).Three years together.I never expected for our relationship to last that long. And to my surprise, Sebastian was a devoted father to our children. They loved him and I loved him more each day, with my whole heart.“Honey, I kind of miss our children”“Sebastian..” I laughed softly and rested my head on his shoulders, “They are just away for less than two hours. Let’s spend tonight, for us”He smiled and kissed my head before both of us looked up to the sky watching over the starry night. The night was calming with cool breeze brushing my cheeks. I sighed as I wrapped my arms around his waist, loving his scent, “Do you think your parents can handle our children? The girls are quite a lot to deal with. They will drive Donna insane. Remember what they did to her the last time?”“You mean when they used her lipsticks to draw on her walls?” Sebastian chuckled and brought me closer in his embrace, “Don’t worry, Honey. My father is there watching over them. And my sister is t
(Akira’s POV).‘BANG!’I turned my head sharply after hearing the whizzing sound of the gunshot that whipped past my eyes. The loud sound of the gunshot was making my ear drums ringing so loudly. I lost focused and almost tripped down to the floor.Sebastian caught my arm and held me close to his body, “I got you, Honey. It is going to be alright. Look at me, Honey. Look at me”I blinked my eyes before my vision was focused on his face. I smiled seeing he was alright, “He missed”The smile on his face was not the usual ones I see on him. There was something wrong.“Honey, I want you to run. Don’t look back. Keep running”I shook my head and held his hand. It was then I felt something wet on my palm. Blood!“Sebastian, you got s-shot! No! No!” I held his body close to mine in a reflex to protect him against harm.“Sebastian, that was just a warning shot. The next one will be the one that will end your f*cking life!” It was Charles’ threatening words. I turned to face him and stood in
(Author’s POV).Kimberly sighed in annoyance and faced Charles, “Can’t you see I’m busy? I’m looking for my soulmate. He is hiding somewhere. Sebastian loves to play games when we were younger. I’ll tell you a secret”She tiptoed and whispered to Charles, “I’m a very good seeker. I know he is hiding behind that rock. I’m just waiting for him to come out”“You are insane, do you realise that?”Kimberly laughed and patted Charles chest teasingly, “It takes one crazy person to know another. But I wonder, who is crazier? You do realise your plan to kidnap a pregnant woman with a child is a stupid plan. No offense”“And your plan to make Sebastian falls in love with you is just a dream that would never come true” Charles smirked at Kimberly and looked at the rock formation where Kimberly said Sebastian was probably hiding, “As for me, Akira loves me. I just need her to be brave to take a leap of faith with me. She is just afraid, but I will make her realise that her love for me is still t
(Akira’s POV).I smiled while hearing the voice I had missed so much. Tears fell on my cheeks, almost making me choke from them, “My baby. How are you? Where are you? Are you hurt?”“Mommy, where are you? Are you coming to get me?”“Baby, I’m coming to you. It is not going to be long. Are you alright? Did she hurt you?”I took a glance at Charles and smiled of happiness being able to hear my son’s voice again. He smiled back at me and stopped the car at the traffic light that was turning red. Lifting his fingers, he wiped my tears away as I continued talking to my son.For a moment, I was touched by his kindness and love for me. But I knew things were not going to be well for us. My love was for Sebastian, and I could not wait to see him safe again.“Sammy, where is Daddy? Is he with you?” My words were obviously not to Charles liking. He ran his fingers across his hair before he calmly continued driving.“I don’t know, Mommy. Daddy asked me to run as fast as I can, away from Kimberl
(Author’s POV).“Daddy, you are here! I know you will come for me” Samuel’s excitement to see his father again had made him forget that they still had Kimberly as the problem, somewhere in the house.“Sammy, we need to be quiet” Sebastian whispered to his son with a smile of content. He was relieved to see his son not physically injured. But frowned seeing his shirt was a little torn, “Are you alright? Did Kim hurt you?”The boy walked closer to his father and whispered, “I think Kimberly is not well, Daddy. She is acting weird. Is Mommy alright, Daddy? Kimberly said you need to go away with Mommy because Mommy is not well”Sebastian exhaled his breath shakily, controlling his heightened anger on Kimberly. She had fed his son with lies. “Mommy is fine, Sammy. I need you to be brave. I need you to run as fast as you can. I think I know this place. There should be houses nearby. It is going to be a little scary out there, but I need you to be brave and call for help”“I’m not leaving y
(Sebastian’s POV).I closed my eyes and held my breath. Channelled my anger towards Kimberly for the pain she had cause both Akira and me. It became unforgivable when she involved my son in that crazy scheme of hers wanting us to be together.I was not going to lose control of my body for her. Not again.“You are playing hard to get, Bastian. I can go on and make you hard for me” she teased with her tongue licking the top of my hardness. She was not going to give up and I was losing her dangerous game.I tried hard to let the rope tied on my hand loosen up. My efforts were just making my wrist felt pain and I could guess they were already bleeding.Kimberly stood up and moved her body in a seductive way. I did not know what suddenly happened to me. My sight was getting blurry and my eyelids heavy. “What did you do to me, Kim?”“I did not do anything. But I’m not sure if the men I hired earlier did something to you” she smiled and slowly lowered her dress to her waist showing her nake
(Sebastian’s POV).I held my breath, feeling Kimberly’s lips on my skin as it moved to my sensitive spot on my neck. I closed my eyes and held on to the thought that my Akira was waiting for me to come home.A mistake was done before, and I was not going to break her heart again.“Bastian, I know you want it. I know you. Free your mind and remember those days when we were so happy together” she blew her warm breath in my ears as her hand touched my body, slowly unbuttoning my shirt. “Let loose. Let me satisfy your desire”She moaned as she placed her hand under my shirt and caressed my chest. I took a deep breath to calm my breathing not wanting to lose to her touch. “Oh, Bastian. I miss this. Smile for me”My hands were tied behind the chair that I was seated. I could not move as she sat on my lap, moving her body on my legs. She whispered before she sucked on my earlobe, gently, “I’m going to make you hard for me tonight. I’m going to make you remember tonight forever as I let you
(Sebastian’s POV).I stood at the door of my room looking at the mother of my children. She was not willing to let me go. But we had not much of a choice. Kimberly had to stop the madness in her head.I was the only one she wanted. And I needed to act fast. She need to be stopped before she hurts anyone.“Honey, I’ll be fine. I’ll bring our son home. I need you to trust me. I love you, always” I cupped her face and lowered my head to kiss her. We had the time to ourselves before I decided to go.Feeling inside of her again was amazing. It had helped cleared my mind. But it was not enough to cool down the anger I had for Kimberly.“Don’t go. Don’t leave me here. Please, Sebastian” her trembling hands gripped on to my shirt while she kissed me. When my tongue slipped into her sweet tasting mouth, I was lost for words.All I wanted was to feel inside of her again. It was never enough. I wanted more of her.It was so instantaneous, and our urgent tongue wrestled for dominance. The next t
(Akira’s POV).With the search team moving their operation at Sebastian’s house, I was practically living there. Everyone played their part in locating my son. Not a minute spared to rest. Sebastian made sure their time was devoted on our search for Samuel.Three days was too much for me to bear not being able to see, hear or touch my son. I missed him so much.“Melina, what are you doing out there in the cold. Come inside, my dear” my grandfather came walking towards me using his cane. I was happy to see strength coming back on his knees. I knew Lady Violet was part of that recovery.He was looking much better than when I first saw him months ago. “Grandpa, you need to rest”“I am fine. Come with me and let’s have a good hot chocolate. Violet made them” I took his hand and walked with him to the kitchen.There were several people in the house. Police, private investigators, search team and our families. Mine and his.We did not like the idea of having Sebastian’s parents staying at
