“Wait..” Eleanor screams when Kayden is about to take his side on the bed.As Kayden moved to take his place on the bed, Eleanor's sudden outcry startled him, causing him to freeze in place, his expression a mix of confusion and apprehension. He literally jerks behind confused and scared."What?" he demanded, his tone sharp with irritation.Eleanor's eyes darted to the pillow beside him, her movements swift as she reached out to remove it from the bed."This pillow... it will hurt you," she explained earnestly, her concern genuine as she moved the offending object aside.Kayden's brow furrowed in disbelief. "Seriously? You shouted for that?" he retorted, his frustration evident in his voice."I don't want you to get hurt during our honeymoon... what will people say?" Eleanor countered, her words dripping with sarcasm.Kayden clenched his jaw, struggling to comprehend Eleanor's sudden outburst. Her actions were perplexing, her concern for his well-being bordering on obsessive."Eleanor

"He is just playing with your mind," Eleanor repeated to herself, her voice firm as she stared at her reflection in the bathroom mirror. "And your confidence, Eleanor. Don’t let him win. Just don’t let him win."She had taken a shower, hoping to wash away the lingering feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability that Kayden's words had stirred within her. Now, as she stood in front of the mirror, she was determined to regain her composure and face him with dignity.With a deep breath, she stepped out of the bathroom, her resolve steeling her against the lingering doubts that threatened to cloud her mind. Kayden was already seated at the table, eating fruits as if nothing had happened."You're early," he remarked, glancing up at her. "I thought you wouldn’t come out until afternoon."Eleanor rolled her eyes at his attempt to tease her, refusing to let his words affect her. The best course of action now was to ignore him, to act as if nothing had transpired between them.She turned her at

Avery sat at the kitchen table, the steam rising from her cup of coffee as she listened intently to Eleanor's recounting of her honeymoon. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, mingling with the tension that hung between them like a heavy cloud."Can you believe he paid the bills? I don't know why? First, he acts all weird, taunting me and all that. The next instant, he acts so nice and calm. His mixed behavior is confusing me," Eleanor grumbled, her frustration evident in the furrow of her brow."He's not that bad then," Avery remarked, taking a sip of her coffee, the warmth of the cup a comforting contrast to the coldness that seemed to seep into the room.Avery's casual comment only seemed to fuel Eleanor's irritation, her own coffee forgotten and growing cold as ice beside her. "You're not here to praise him, Avery. Give me something to wipe that grin off his face."Avery rolled her eyes, the weight of Eleanor's bitterness becoming increasingly tiresome. "For once, ca

"I don't understand what Kayden saw in you," Aurora snapped, her words cutting through the tension-filled air like a knife. Eleanor braced herself for the confrontation, her patience wearing thin as she prepared to defend herself once again.Refusing to back down, Eleanor met Aurora's gaze head-on, her resolve unwavering despite the younger woman's hostility. "Let him decide that," she retorted coolly, her tone tinged with defiance. "Instead of showing so much interest in mine and Kayden's marriage, perhaps you should focus on your own. If you had spent as much time with Sebastian as you do criticizing others, I'm sure you would have had babies by now."The words hung heavy in the air, the silence that followed punctuated by the weight of Eleanor's pointed remark. Aurora's eyes welled with tears, her composure crumbling in the face of Eleanor's unexpected jab. With a cold glance in Eleanor's direction, she turned on her heel and stormed out of the room, her emotions raw and unchecked.

WATSON MANSIONSebastian Knight and Adam Watson sat in the living room of the Watson Mansion discussing their political moves ahead. Adam Watson had never shown any support to Sebastian’s political party so far but then times were changing and also now he had a connection with the Knights after getting Eleanor married to that family. Hence, he had personally invited Sebastian over breakfast today, so that he could put forth his own ambitions towards the advancement of his political career which couldn’t be a success without Sebastian Knight’s political party’s support.Sebastian Knight and Adam Watson sat across from each other in the elegant study of the Watson Mansion, the atmosphere tense with anticipation. Sebastian, his brow furrowed in concern, set his cup of tea aside as he broached the topic at hand."Mr. Governor, if we don't think about each other, who else will?" Sebastian's words held a note of urgency as he pressed Adam for his allegiance. "The elections are on my head.

“That picture should have been a closed-door moment, Kayden. I am very against such public display of affection unnecessarily. But Eleanor… huh!!” he sighed. “She is just used to all this. After all, she is a model. Such exposure doesn’t count for her. She takes it all very lightly”Though Kayden agreed to the modeling part, he wouldn’t say that Eleanor did it all on purpose. They were not even aware of someone clicking their photo.“In a marriage, Mr. Watson” Kayden leaned back. “Both husband and wife are equally responsible to decide what part of their lives should be exposed and what should be hidden. If you are blaming Eleanor for this, I am equally to be blamed”Adam was stunned at Kayden’s continuous attempts to take Eleanor’s side. Seemed like Eleanor had circled her magic wand on her Knight husband. In one way, he was happy about it. He will just have to convince Eleanor and then she would in turn convince Kayden to get his proposal forward.“Well… I am glad that she is accust

“Eleanor.. this is seriously not a good idea. I think we should head back,” Avery muttered, biting her nails. She and Eleanor were driving to the farm house where Kayden and Max were having a night out. This was Eleanor’s plan to set things right not just for Avery but also for herself. She messed up with Kayden’s lunch and should apologize without any further doubt.Eleanor rolled her eyes at her best friend, Avery, who seemed to be in a perpetual state of worry.Eleanor leaned in, her tone oozing with reassurance. "You'll thank me later for this," she assured Avery, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Avery's concern crept into her voice as she glanced around the room, noting the masculine decor. "I doubt it. It's going to be all boys in that house. Do you really think Kayden Knight will appreciate it?" Her fingers tapped nervously on the arm of the chair.With a nonchalant shrug, Eleanor's confidence remained unshaken. "Stop fretting, Avery. I've got everything under control." She

"Eleanor..." Avery's voice broke through the tension, her tone resigned. "We should leave. These men always think they're right."Avery’s eyes filled with tears. She had seen enough drama here and wasn’t prepared for more. She held Eleanor’s wrist and tried to drag her away. But the moment she tried to take Eleanor away from this place, she felt a sharp pull from Eleanor’s end as if Eleanor wasn’t moving an inch from the spot. When she turned around, she realized it wasn’t Eleanor but Kayden who had grabbed his wife’s arm and stopped her from going anywhere. Avery wondered how to absorb this."I am not done with my wife yet," Kayden's voice sliced through the air, sharp and commanding. Avery's heart skipped a beat at his tone, her eyes widening in surprise."And neither are you with your husband Max," he added, his gaze now fixed on Avery, his expression unreadable.Avery's mind raced with confusion. What did he mean by that? She muttered shyly, unsure of how to respond to Kayden's un

THE KNIGHT MANSION “Bro.. what's the matter? Why have you called us all here?” Christopher asked as the brothers and Grandma seated in the study room. Max shut the door. “Won’t take long Christopher and let’s keep this discussion only between us” Kayden mentioned. “I didn’t involve Patricia, Eleanor and Aurora because that would raise suspicions in the eyes of people who might be spying on us. I don’t want any outsider to know what we are discussing now. We can always share it with our wives privately after this meeting is over” “Kayden,” Grandma interrupted. “This emergency meeting is scaring me. Did we get any hint on Christopher’s abduction?” Max turned on the projector and the image of Sebastian’s lookalike flashed on the screen. “That’s not Sebastian” Kayden cleared Christopher and Aiden’s doubts before they could ask. “Man!! Who the hell is he then? And what does he have to do with us?” Christopher asked. “He was involved in your kidnapping Christopher” Silence spread in

Veronica was in the kitchen, looking after the dinner arrangements for the guests when someone tickled her waist. She almost jumped in shock before almost running away. Aiden Knight laughed heartily. “Aiden? You.. Was it you? I was so scared” she wiped off the sweat from her forehead. Veronica's heart raced as she spotted Aiden amidst the dimly lit alley. She hesitated, the fear palpable in her voice as she spoke his name. Aiden's laughter echoed off the brick walls, his amusement at her reaction evident.He grinned, still chuckling as he watched her wipe the sweat from her forehead. "Oh God. Look at you... you jumped so far," he said, his laughter infectious.Veronica's concern deepened as she glanced around nervously. "What are you doing here? If anyone sees us together, it would raise their suspicions."Aiden's laughter faded as he approached her, his gaze intense as he pulled her close. "I so wish to take off this mask from your head and..." He leaned in, his lips dangerously cl

THE KNIGHT MANSION Sebastian Knight stormed into the house. He looked completely pissed. “Where is Kayden?” he barked at Sean, their loyal butler. The servant promptly pointed out at the drawing room where Kayden and Max were discussing something. The guests had started crowding in the Palace and the women of the house were busy occupied with them. Sebastian barged in the room, shutting the door behind. Kayden didn’t like the intrusion but observing Sebastian’s present look, he could see the man was annoyed. “How dare you put spies behind me?” Sebastian shouted coming closer. Before he could touch Kayden, Max came in between them. Sebastian's voice thundered through the room, his anger palpable as he advanced towards Kayden. Max swiftly interposed himself between the two, a barrier of resolve. "Sebastian, stay back," Max cautioned, his tone firm. Sebastian's eyes flared with defiance. "Who are you to tell me that? I am talking to my brother, and no third person should intervene

Veronica flew for the Knight mansion again and Kayden was busy with some important calls briefing his team about the almost attack on Aiden which happened last night. Eleanor used the free time to call up Patricia and ask her how the preps were going. The baby shower was in two days and she couldn’t wait to see her sister all decked up and being pampered by everyone.“I am so happy you bagged the lead role. Will that mean I will see you less?” Patricia queried.“Probably” Eleanor sighed. “But I will be there by the time of your delivery. No way I can miss that”“How is dear grandma? And Aurora?”“Grandma is busy with the preps here and Aurora is assisting her. I have never seen them bonding”“Seriously? You mean grandma and Aurora?”“Yes, they seem to have built a good rapport these days”“Aww.. that’s cool. I think the credit goes to you” Eleanor praised. “Before you and Christopher showed your presence, Sebastian and Aurora were going to leave the house. And see now, she is looking

“Veronica” Aiden clutched her arm as they got out of the Pub. “You still didn’t tell me why bro and Eleanor left early?”Veronica held her blush.“You are such a bore Aiden. Why would a couple skip every enjoyment and want some privacy?”Aiden feigned thinking. She knew he was acting. She hit his chest.“You seriously think it’s their special night today?” he queried.“I am confident,” she replied. “Eleanor actually brought a bridal dress and jewelry to surprise Kayden. And we even decorated their bedroom”“How cute” Aiden was impressed. “bro really needed a wife like her”Veronica smiled.“They are a perfect couple”“Like us” He pulled her closer. “And that reminds me.. when am I getting that opportunity to see you decked up in a beautiful bridal dress, waiting for me in my bedroom?”Veronica laughed.“I didn’t joke” his voice was stern.She became serious as he held her jaw.“Aiden?”“How about tonight?”“What?”“You heard it sweetheart”“No” she pushed him away and hurried out.“St

The drive to the Villa was not very long. Eleanor dragged Kayden along and stopped once they reached the living room.“Now that we have reached..” Kayden pulled her closer. “Tell me what the surprise is”Eleanor paused him before he could kiss her. One kiss and she would melt in his arms. She wouldn’t let that happen because tonight was much more than what he had expected out of her. She pushed him on the couch.“You got your phone?” she asked.Kayden was dazed by her actions and question, both. When he didn’t respond, she started checking his shirt and denim pockets to find the mobile. Her playful hands burned his body once again. He pulled her on his lap and ensured she couldn’t get down.“Here” she handed him the mobile. “I will call you in exactly 20 minutes, until then you will behave like a nice boy and stay here. Don’t even dare to come in the bedroom”“Bedroom” he repeated. “So that’s where my surprise is”“Not yet,” she giggled. “But it will soon be ready”Kayden loved the ef

PARIS – CLUB“It worked,” Eleanor said to Veronica as they stepped inside the club and were instantly guided to the VIP area on the 3rd floor. Seemed like their husbands had taken passes for the VIP section and planned to utilize all the facilities of this Club royally.“Indeed. The brothers have united” Veronica replied.“I didn’t expect them to come here by the way”“Then you don’t know anything about their naughty past” Veronica answered. “These two had their share of fun time boozing and dancing in their free time”Now that shocked Eleanor. She couldn’t imagine her husband doing any of that publicly.“Are you serious?” she reconfirmed.“How do you think I met Aiden?”Eleanor was curious and Veronica didn’t hide that incident.FEW YEARS AGOIt was a dark night but the loud music had wiped off the silence around her. She had a short fight with her father regarding her further studies abroad. She had completed her graduation just one month ago and wanted to polish her knowledge and s

VILLAKayden hit the gym because that was the only way to spend time without his wife. Aiden was busy on calls. His producer was giving him a tough time but Aiden was handling things well. He was really a good decision maker too now, unlike before when he changed his mind almost every minute. After pushups, Kayden decided to walk on the treadmill when Aiden joined him in the gym.“You hated treadmills,” Aiden muttered.Kayden shrugged lazily.“No choice here. Unlike the Knight mansion, there is no walking area around this place. Not to mention the pollution in this city is roaring high too”“I know. But this city has some beautiful clubs and the sea link is best for racing high speed bikes at midnight”Kayden let out a chuckle.“You seem to love this city”“A lot,” Aiden nodded. “It’s like a second home”Kayden slowed the speed of the treadmill. Did he say second home?“The Knight mansion has missed you terribly Aiden. Every occasion, every festival, every celebration was void without

PARIS – VILLA“Why are you in so much hurry to show me the house Mr. Royal Knight? I can see that later. Right now I have to chat with Veronica..” Eleanor faked an excuse and joined Veronica in the living room who was sitting alone as Aiden was busy on a call.Kayden clenched his jaw. She was doing this on purpose. He wanted to spend some quality time with his wife and here she was busy ignoring him.“Hey” Eleanor sat next to Veronica. “I forgot to thank you”“Thank me? For?”“Taking up Grandma’s caretaker’s role. We wouldn’t have found a better person than you. She is really impressed by you. In fact, even Aurora and Patricia keeps telling me how much you look after every little need of Grandma”Veronica smiled. She was reluctant to pick that role because she didn’t like Grandma much just like she had hated Kayden Knight. But that was the only way to get an entry in that house.“She means something to me too. Though when I took up the role, I wasn’t very happy to be around the same w
