CHAPTER 34. Destroyed He was back to the point where he had begun it. The hope that came to life with the possibilities that his ex wife could be the reason behind Kiara’s missing manifested to be wrong. She had no hand in this matter and Girard was uselessly doubting her! The evening he left behind whilst going to his ex wife’s house was now changed into night. A dark regretting night that brought to the point where he was standing at before her entry in his empire. Raven sniffed recklessly seeing the stars. After having that heated meeting with Shania he came back to the place where he was sitting. Chronicle Point— a famous tourist attraction of the city with a valley and mountainous view in the north while a range of roads running in the back south. And whew he sat supporting his back on the metallic body of the car, was a grassy land with little insects running here and there under the moonlight. He had no wish to go home. There was no interest to think about the concerned topi
CHAPTER 35. Alone That night neither Billy got some peace nor his father! After coming back home, raven was questioned too much regarding his role in the search. But he could give nothing more than a sarcastic smile all the time with bleeding eyes with painful tears of dejection and self destruction. He was hollow from within. The organs were definitely working, but he could not keep them connected and help his body work. It was as if he was just a body that could breathe, cry and but cannot talk. He was just a human who has life and no objective in life, no family, no happiness and no peace! The very first thing he did after getting into the abode was— rush to Billy room, sigh defeatedly near the door with a choking throat and almost run to pick him up in his arms. Raven cried loudly hugging him close that his cries made Billy to soften himself a little realizing how his father was broken. He can really not get that all but as he hears his father cry hugging him close, he sobbed
CHAPTER 36. Did I take too harsh decision in the name of revenge Saturday, Morning, ‘Famous heartthrob award winning billionaire Raven Carter, lose his kid’s custody case to his ex-wife!’The news was everywhere in the news channels by the evening soon after the hearing was made on Friday. The Saturday morning was fresh, I felt different. There was no need to hurry and drive to somewhere else to see someone else’s child. I yawned getting up late in the morning, oh I mean, afternoon. I never had such an amazing night in these seven months after that day. It was only revenge that I felt, that I thought, that I kissed and that I desired about all the time after he got into my life back. He thought he would use me and I will let him use myself innocently! Stupid Raven Carter. Haha. Unfortunately, what he didn’t know was that I was no more the old Kiara he knew. I have changed, changed right after I got that call informing me regarding his visit to my city after three years. I still r
CHAPTER 37. New feelings Excusing myself from the breakfast table I came back to my room. Why should I feel bad for his son! He was nobody to me. I just happened to be there in that house with him only because I wanted to execute my revenge.And Billy, he was the primary target. It was decided ever since the beginning that I will get close to him such that it is difficult for anyone else to handle him in my absence. And when the right time comes, I would leave him so that he suffers gradually becoming an integral reason behind Raven’s suffering. But why do I feel so strange? Why is his sad flushed red face affecting me! I didn’t decide to be his mother forever. Why would I! He was not even my flesh. I was any other step mother for him who hurt him as it shows in the movies. Agreed he was a good company, I liked to spend time with him taking his care and seeing to it, he always followed my words although it wasn’t out of affection. Rather, it was pure aggression, the fury of pain in
CHAPTER 38. Too good to be real. “So how are you now? I hope I helped you forget them from your head to some extent?” Forcing a smile in reflex I crossed my legs sitting comfortably in the seat. The buckle was discomforting my posture. We were sitting in his private jet moving our ways to Serbia for the fair he mentioned, what was that? Uh I don’t clearly remember it. But anyways I heaved a sigh looking out of the window. “Hmm, almost.” I lied, adoring the foggy clouds that seemed nothing more than accumulation of smoke together that formed them. The azure sky running heavenly with the white clouds made my heart flutter. The world seemed beautiful from all the sides. Be it the scenic beauty of the lands or the heavenly exquisiteness of the clouds and the majestic aura of the lovely view. I have never seen something like this ever before. I wonder if he or anyone like him who frequently travels in air planes has ever taken a moment to adore them! “These clouds, they are so beautiful
CHAPTER 39. Date When my eyes unlatched I found myself in an amusing well ventilated, high class room with lavish furniture. The walls were painted with soft maroon colour and flooring of white tiles intrigued my imagination. The room was as good as I could ever imagine in my dreams. Everywhere my pupil stayed, all I could see was something unique very well conveying that the room was located in a seven star expensive hotel! I was in the bed comfortably covered with the thick feathery quilt. Payton must have brought me here while I was asleep. He can be such a gentleman! I never knew it. Slipping out my body from the covers as I stepped down, the skin of my feet came in contact with a feathery floor mat with white fur as if it was made with feathers. I slightly brushed my feet over it making my hair into a bun. The lights emitting in the room made it hard for me to understand whether it was still day or evening. With soft cozy steps taken ahead as I moved near the big balcony, I p
CHAPTER 40. Confused mind “Kiara, this is for you!” Payton sat on his knees in a position as though proposing to me. Indeed, he has a ring in his hand with those hopeful expressions on his face that said he was up to something. “I know you are still in the phase of considering my proposal but would you like to accept my chocolate ring, made with a hundred percent pure Belgium chocolate!” chuckling at his words I saw the crowd pointing at him. Some whispered that he was the famous entrepreneur who was growing as a businessman rapidly while others adoringly watched as he passed the ring to me. “ Please don’t say no otherwise my heart that is like this chocolate ring— will melt in sadness” I don’t think even he had any thought as to what he was speaking. People stood in their places admiring us and eagerly waiting to see what will be my answer to his proposal while some removed their cellphones to capture this moment and obviously post on their blogs as to how the popular businessman
41. His agonies. Life is not easy. Not at all if you ask someone like Kiara whose life has always been a hardship filled with drawbacks and obstacles. However, it will not be wrong to compare her life with little Billy though. Even though it has hardly been two stupid fucking damn years to his existence yet whatever he has gone through counts more than what Kiara has experienced in life. Both suffered the same. Immense love, depended on somebody who gave no shit to their feelings and gradually in the end saw a cruel heart break that left them with no grounds. Yet again, if their sorrows are measured, it will be realized Billy suffered more. At least Kiara knew that the person she loved, she was dependent on, would never come back after they left, albeit poor Billy was yet confused and hopeful that one day his Mamma would come back to him and love him like the old times. “Stop it Billy! Can’t you just shut your ass hole mouth and eat this in silence!!!” He cried louder every time Sh
(Last chapter)63. Baby boy's birthday"Mummy, I want tho (to) go to the market" Billy uttered with his slipping tongue.He was growing up quickly and his talks were becoming way more and more cute and naughty. He was becoming more stubborn too. Kiara smile watching baby boy stand in his half pants in front of her as if he was an obedient son of her mamma. "Sure, I will take you to the market" she pulled his chubby cheeks whilst kissing them lightly too.Five months passed by in a jiffy, and they were the most amazing five months of their lives while they stayed together in Raven's parents' house. Today was Billy's third birthday too, so the celebration was doubled.Girard and his grandparents were occupied with the task of decorating the house. They decided to go with the theme of Mowgli an
62. New beginningA week later,"Thanks" Shania smiled sitting on an armchair as Payton forwarded her a cup of coffee.She was staring at the starry sky from the ceiling to floor huge window. It was like a clip playing on a screen. The blue sky mixed with black theme looked awesomely beautiful. "How long are you going to stay here?" he asked taking a seat next to her.Shania stubbornly got discharged that day from the hospital and tried to attempt suicide again however, Payton who had followed her saved her. He slapped her on the cheek and taught her how important and worthy her life was.But as broken as she was, she still did not want to go to the hospital and face her ex-husband. She was crazy at her father too who had refused to file a case against Raven and Kiara for trick
61. Unveiling secrets and a broken WarriorWith the arrival of fresh morning new relationships came to life. The fresh breeze of the new beginning brushed Kiara's pale tired face. She stirred stretching her arms on her side. She trailed her palm on the side of the bed under her semi-conscious state. "Raven!" she sat on the bed with jolt as the side of the bed was empty.She looked at the wash room but no voice came from inside. Billy was sleeping in his cradle while the windows was perfectly curtained so that no sun light can creep inside the room and disturb her sleep.They were open in the last night. Raven may have closed them, but the question was, where was he?Kiara's heard started throbbing loudly. Hasn't he decided to abandon her!Many such emotions filled her h
60. Unexpected crashWhile the living beings were sleeping soundly in their beds Payton sat in the empty lounge of Seattle Airport alone. He was waiting for his private jet to occur that was about to come. On the other hand, his mind yearned to message Raven and Kiara and wish them a good luck before leaving.He was going back to Serbia, this time forever. Although her love was incomplete, yet he was happily going back with some of the good memories stoked up in his brain. He was happy for uniting the couple he grew up seeing since the college began. The two of them were college darlings and meant to be together.But the life played according to its game and after some separation and drama it finally brought the two of them together. Together a happy family they seemed awesome. He can't admire their love for a limit, it was limitless.&nbs
59. Their love won!It came as a shock to Kiara. She stiffened her body under his pressure while emotions built within her. She was speechless running dry with words and empty with courage. Her fingers around his shoulder s loosened and came across her chest. She suddenly felt like a fish drawn out of the water and thrown of muddy ground to suffer.She was still in daze that her eyes several times blinked. Had she imagined him saying that! She asked herself while her lung blew and such long breaths. Raven though was not in any mood of pretending it was her imagination. The way he got back on his legs and faced the open windows of their room, his tongue spoke again, "I just proved your swears wrong, Kiara. You said you were pure, didn't you? If you were pure why would you yearn to my sexual advances like that" he raised his eye brow giving her thought looks.Kiara wh
58. He's turned you into a sex addictThird person's point of view...She was waiting for him without keeping her attention occupied by any other stuff. It was 12.15 am in the night, billy was sleeping soundly in his baby cradle located beside the bed on a distance. The room was illuminating with dim lights while Kiara walked to and fro around the balcony waiting for his car to catch her glimpse.They were supposed to talk. She was prepared doing what she has planned. Alas, there was no sign of him anywhere. Ste was ready to take the bull by the horns but her badass husband was seeing to it that she suffered.Not only had he blocked her phone number but also warned anyone to give her his location. Kiara tried talking to Girard and his answer was as expectedly— useless.Bu
57. When I talk to you— look at meKiara's point of view...The life was giving me a second chance. It was not yet clear but I have seen it... It was my chance— chance to ask for my husband's forgiveness.He was mad at me for staying at another man's house. But how to make him believe we stayed in two different rooms in the same house. Payton is not that bad which he was in the college. He is a changed man now.But for raven, he was still the old guy who was just trying to woo his girlfriend turned into wife.Any ways, I have seen it in his eyes he was not angry... He was just jealous. And if what I have deciphered true, than tonight will the night of our togetherness. I will make him mine again.I have changed to take reve
56. How can I not believe that nothing happened!He halted on the door looking at the scene before him. There was nothing he could say as his son was actually crying because her uncle Girard has held him within his arms not letting him go to his mamma. She was on the bed looking extremely sick with red eyes and yellowish pale skin. There was a bottle of glucose hanging on the bedside while the pipe kept attached to the back of her wrist. Who would tell his stubborn son what was up with her.He cried kicked and bit Girard on the shoulder agitated by his action of preventing him from his mamma.But when little Billy caught the sigh of his startled father at the door step, "Pappa... Pappa" he faked a cry pushing Girard away from himself and got down of the bed carefully.Just as his little body pushed itself down the bed
55. You don't see my painAfter that leave Raven never visited his parents' house to see Billy. That Night Kiara cried to herself hugging her son to her chest as she did manage to get him back to herself but his father, she could not get him at all.He was damn angry on her.It was justified though.Kiara can comprehend as to what was holding him back. Firstly, she left them in the hardships and when her guilt was eating her for the blunder she made, she came back.Although the entire Carter family forgave her there was her husband who was still maintaining distance from her. "Morning uh, m-mom!" Her eyes were red and puffy, Mrs. Carter forced a smile recognizing them.She must have cried the whole night!
