“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

    FARM HOUSE“Ridiculous,” Eleanor snapped as she was taking deep breaths to calm her raging nerves down. “He is doing this on purpose.”Eleanor paced in the kitchen of the Farm House where Avery had dragged her to seclude them from the rest. After Kayden’s unnecessary love confession, Eleanor was going insane in the crowd. Whilst Kayden was busy taking wishes from his friends for being in love, Eleanor was infuriated every time someone came to her and congratulated on the way she put up her love confession before everyone, which wasn’t true. The apology chapter was closed and a new one related to their love for each other was opened which annoyed her beyond control.Eleanor's voice trembled as she spoke, her frustration palpable in the air of the opulent Knights' mansion. "You were right. We shouldn’t have come here," she stated, her tone heavy with disappointment. "He smartly twisted the whole apology into his favor and pasted this lie for everyone to see. How could he do this? I don

    It was almost 2:00 am when Kayden stepped into his bedroom. He wasn’t expecting Eleanor to be awake yet she was. Eleanor was standing alone on the balcony and watching the plush green lawn before the house. His heart fluttered seeing her in his outfits. She looked cuter in his clothes and the next time he would wear those pants and T-shirt; it would remind him of her. Damn!! He shouldn’t have suggested that Avery give his clothes to Eleanor. But he couldn’t see her spending the night in those drenched clothes either."What a lovely mess," Kayden remarked, his voice deliberately raised to catch Eleanor's attention.She turned around, surprised to see him standing there. "I didn’t know you were waiting for me," he teased, a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes. "Otherwise, I would have come early to bed."Eleanor rolled her eyes at his playful remark, her frustration evident in the furrow of her brow.“Why are you so mean, selfish, and full of yourself?” she asked, her tone tinged wit

    Three days passed that Kayden Knight had not returned back to Shantivan. After Max’s birthday at the farm house he left for some urgent official work. Eleanor was suspicious of his absence. Though he gave work excuses to Caroline and others, Eleanor wasn’t convinced. Either he was upset over their last fight or he had got her words loud and clear. She had no plans to stick to this marriage ever and he had got that hint. So, the last two days went well for Eleanor. She enjoyed being alone in Kayden’s royal bedroom, using the entire bed to herself. She was enjoying his absence and using it to her extreme benefit. Caroline was neutral to his absence, Sebastian didn’t care either but Aurora was doubtful. She even tried to poke Eleanor and make her spill the beans but Eleanor was too strong willed to reveal anything to her. The date of the Advertisement promo on the television had finally arrived. Eleanor planned to sit in front of the TV the whole day and check how she performed in the

    AN HOUR LATEREleanor's frustration mounted with each passing moment as she waited on the line, her patience wearing thin as she listened to the woman's pleas for calm. The incessant ringing in her ear served as a stark reminder of the countless attempts she had made to reach Mr. Smith, only to be met with silence or excuses.“Ma’am, please calm down,” the woman on the other end of the call pleaded, her voice tinged with unease. “Mr. Smith is busy right now.”Eleanor scoffed, her irritation bubbling to the surface as she resisted the urge to unleash her pent-up frustration on the hapless receptionist.“You better connect me to him now. I cannot show any more patience. I have been calling him for the past hour. Why is he ignoring me?” Eleanor demanded, her tone sharp with frustration.The woman stumbled over her words, clearly caught off guard by Eleanor's abruptness.“Mr. Smith Sir isn’t ignoring you, Ma’am. He has some back-to-back meetings aligned,” she stammered, her voice betrayin

    Kayden Knight sipped the hot coffee in the early hours of the morning. It had been 4 days now that he was in that hotel, away from his home, his family and most importantly, away from the woman who was the reason for his sleepless nights. After their fight in the farm house, things had changed drastically between them. It was evident that he wanted control over this marriage and she wanted to break it off the very next moment he even tried. It was a difficult tug of war he wished to end. Eleanor Watson was a fiery woman and she had captured his heart the very moment he had laid his eyes on her during Max and Avery’s marriage. But if she attracted him in infinite ways, she was also his worst nightmare. In all those teen years and adulthood, the one thing he wanted to have in life was control. And ever since Eleanor Watson stepped in, he feared losing it very often. He had gone out of his normal ways to protect her from humility, to comfort her from the people who disliked her and ge

    Kayden stood behind the Doctor who was examining Eleanor. It had been an hour since she was unconscious. Kayden called for the in-room medical help and the Doctor rushed within a few minutes of that incident. The rest of the room was still scattered and looked utterly disoriented. The Doctor injected some sedatives and then stood up.He couldn't shake the image of Eleanor lying unconscious, her face pale and strained."Is she fine, Doctor?" His voice quivered as he addressed the physician, his hands clenched into fists at his sides.The Doctor, a seasoned professional with a calm demeanor, took a moment to collect his thoughts before responding. "Your wife had an anxiety attack, Mr. Knight."Kayden swallowed hard.“Attack…?? An…anxiety attack?”Kayden's breath caught in his throat. Anxiety attack? The words echoed in his mind, stirring a whirlwind of emotions within him."Yes," the Doctor continued, his tone sympathetic yet matter-of-fact. "These episodes often manifest when a person

    “Oh my God” she shouted. “Why are you reacting like I am dying?”“Shut up” he snapped. “You are not dying. It was an anxiety attack”She was silent for a minute to absorb what he just said.“Anxiety what?”“Attack” Kayden chewed his teeth. This was difficult.Eleanor panicked. The way she drew the quilt closer to her body proved that.“Anxiety attack?” she murmured thinking deeply.Kayden was about to explain she would do fine but she didn’t let him speak.“I cannot believe this.. Anxiety attack? I got an anxiety attack?”Kayden kept his gaze on her.“What else would I expect?” she scoffed. “Right from the time you have barged in my life, I am always on the edge”“Excuse me?” Kayden intervened. “I barged in your life? Have you lost your memories? It was you who hopped in the city for Avery’s wedding. I was always there.. .with or without you.. That place has always been mine”“My bad luck,” she muttered. “If I had known a monster like you existed there, I would never have turned mysel

    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.

    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

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.
