AT NIGHT Eleanor paces in her room. Her feet ache, energy has drained from her body but she doesn’t want to stop. Her brain is exhausted thinking what she can do next to stop this marriage from happening. Her father will never be convinced neither the Knights will listen to her pleas. Now only a miracle can stop all this tragedy.Her phone rings. She is glad her father didn’t snatch her phone yet, not that she would give it that easily. She can ask help from her phone. She has some contacts who can assist her. But she recollects her father’s warning. He can ruin the people who tries to save her from this marriage. She cannot let that happen. The phone keeps ringing. She hurries to the bed and answers the call which is from her friend Avery.In the midst of the engagement fallout, Eleanor found herself grasping for solace in a conversation with her confidante, Avery. The room, adorned with personal touches and the remnants of their earlier exchange, became a sanctuary for Eleanor's unr

PARISHe grips the glass of brandy in his fist, as his assistant reads the newspaper, revealing the front-page update about the Elder Knight’s Engagement with the Governor’s daughter. This is not what he expected to happen at his back. Is that why this entire holiday trip was planned for them? So that he and his wife don't intrude in the decisions of this alliance? Huh!! He should have guessed that beforehand. Without a reason, that old matriarch of the family, Caroline Knight, had never been so kind to them. She must have sensed his plans and hence convinced her grandson for this association, in such a haste. She even chose to declare it to the media before her own family members!! Now he has to shuffle everything again, right from devising another way to fulfil his objectives. He won’t back down so easily.A woman draped in a satin nightgown entered the room, her expression a mix of disappointment and frustration. "You heard the news?" she exclaimed, sinking onto the couch beside h

WATSON MANSION When Eleanor returned home, she was greeted by a bustling scene in the living room. A swarm of 10 to 15 people filled the space, each busy with various decorations and arrangements under the direction of her father. Eleanor couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the sudden chaos that had taken over her once peaceful abode."The bride comes," someone chirped from across the room, drawing attention to Eleanor's entrance. A tall, young girl with a vibrant energy rushed over to her, her attire flaunting her bare legs in a tight frock. "Hello, Miss Watson," she exclaimed, extending her hand for Eleanor to shake. "I'm Laura, your wedding planner."Eleanor's eyebrows shot up in surprise. A wedding planner? She couldn't believe her ears. What need did she have for a wedding planner when she had no desire to get married in the first place?"Dad," Eleanor groaned, turning to her father with a mix of frustration and confusion. "What is all this?"But before her father could respond

As Eleanor's hunger pangs intensified, she couldn't help but voice her complaint to her mother, Rose. The restrictions imposed by Knight traditions left her feeling frustrated and famished, her stomach growling in protest at the enforced fast."Mumma, I am very hungry," she lamented, her tone tinged with irritation. "I don’t understand why I cannot have lunch?"Rose sighed in sympathy, her heart aching for her daughter's discomfort. "The Knights' traditions, Eleanor," she explained, her voice tinged with resignation. "The would-be bride has to fast on the day of her engagement and marriage. Caroline Knight had strictly called me to ensure this was followed. And you know I would have still let you eat something, but Laura’s eyes are always on us."Eleanor nodded in understanding, though her frustration simmered beneath the surface. "I know," she sighed, her stomach rumbling in protest. "But I can eat fruits, can’t I?"Rose smiled at her daughter's pragmatic approach, grateful for her un

ENGAGEMENT DAY Aurora contained her frustration as she discreetly observed the lavish event, where the charismatic Kayden Knight and his elegant fiancée Eleanor Watson posed gracefully for pictures amidst the opulent surroundings."Careful, my queen," cautioned Sebastian with a hint of concern. "You're not supposed to envy them. We're family, remember?"Aurora, clad in an exquisite gown, gracefully raised her glass of sparkling liquid to her lips, taking a sip to mask the subtle turmoil beneath her composed exterior. Her eyes, however, remained fixated on the newly engaged couple, their smiles radiant and their connection seemingly effortless."I must say, they have a nice chemistry," she murmured, her voice barely audible above the ambient chatter of the celebration.Sebastian, bewildered by her response, followed her gaze to the couple, attempting to decipher the subtle nuances of their interactions. The dance of glances between Kayden and Eleanor hinted at a deeper connection, one

As Eleanor gradually emerged from the depths of unconsciousness, a throbbing ache reverberated through her head, a sensation that felt as though her skull might shatter if she didn't tend to it. The disorienting haze began to dissipate as her mother's voice, a comforting presence, reached her ears."Eleanor… thank God you are fine," Rose's words enveloped her, instilling a sense of security even before Eleanor could muster the strength to open her eyes. With a groan, Eleanor sat up on the bed, her hand instinctively reaching to massage her throbbing forehead."Damn, it hurts," she muttered, the pain accentuating the disconcerting fog in her mind. Rose, ever attentive, offered her daughter a concoction, and Eleanor, without hesitation, gulped it down in one go. As the liquid flowed down her throat, a sudden recollection flashed in her mind – the cranberry juice, a potential culprit in her sudden unconsciousness.Setting the glass aside, Eleanor pieced together the fragments of the prev

"Where is your ring?" His voice cut through the air, a sharp inquiry that seemed to carry more weight than the question itself. The room, with its muted tones and elegant decor, became a silent witness to the unfolding tension.She instinctively moved her hand to the back, a reflexive attempt to shield herself from the intensity of his gaze. How had he noticed she wasn't wearing their engagement ring? Did the absence of that small band truly make a difference? To her, it didn't, but the significance seemed amplified in his eyes."I forgot to wear it. What’s your problem?" she retorted, her response tinged with a touch of defiance. The room, adorned with framed memories and tasteful furnishings, held its breath, anticipating the exchange that unfolded."You took it off, that’s my problem," he snapped, his tone edged with a bitterness that hung in the air. The atmosphere in the room, once filled with the hum of subtle conversations, now crackled with an undercurrent of tension.His behav

KNIGHT MANSION Eleanor's gaze wanders through the elaborate decorations of the wedding venue, adorned with cascading flowers and shimmering lights. The lively chatter of guests creates a symphony of celebration, contrasting with the tension brewing within her.As Aurora inches closer, the scent of jasmine wafts in the air, mingling with the fragrant henna on Eleanor's palms. The intricate patterns tell a story of tradition and celebration, a stark contrast to the turmoil within.A distant melody plays, echoing the festivities. Eleanor's mind races with questions about Kayden's sudden departure. Why did he leave, and where could he be wandering in the midst of his own wedding preparations?“Whom is the Knight Bride searching for in this crowd?” Aurora Knight breaks Eleanor’s trance. “Are you looking for my brother-in-law?” she whispers coming closer to Eleanor.Eleanor fakes a smile.“He is not home” Aurora sits next to her, admiring the henna drawn on Eleanor’s palms. “He looked very

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
