Sofia is engulfed in Noah’s embrace and Noah seems to be whispering sweet words into her ear. Ever so gently, and lovingly.
At that exact moment, I feel my first heartbreak and my heart shatters into pieces.
“ Noah! “ I scream. He sees me and his eyes go wide. He backs up from Sofia a little.
“ Why are you screaming Emma? “ He asks irritated. He has no right to get angry.
“ And didn’t the maid tell you to wait? “ He asks in an interrogative manner.
Just then the maid arrives.
“ Sir I..I did. But Miss didn’t listen. “ The maid speaks.
The maid then drags me to another room. It seems to be a living room. It is enormous though, in the middle of the room is a coffee table made from pine wood. A chandelier hangs in the middle of the room, giving the room a different vibe.
In the middle of the room is a large fireplace. The wall is adorned by large glass windows. In short, it is a beautiful sight.
I spend my next 10 m
I decide to meet Lucas at the given location. I wanted nothing more than you expose Sophia and tell Noah the truth but at this point Noah won’t believe me.It’s sad to say, but Noah will take Sophia’s words over mine. I feel so.Lucas has given me the location of a coffee shop. I don’t see him at the given location though. I look around and can not find him. I’ll be late. Wait for me there.-LucasI read on my phone screen. I found a booth in the corner and sat back admiring the calmness of the place. It wasn’t chaotic, but instead peaceful.I waited there for a long time, minutes turned into hours and time was passing by. The sun was setting and I was about to leave when a tall and sturdy man dressed in formal attire approached me.“ Hello. “ Said, Lucas.I stared at him with anger.“ Do you know what time it is? “ I ask annoyed.“ You don’t have a watch? “ He asks back smugly.Is he for real?“
“ He is gay! “ She reveals and I burst out laughing.“ What? Stop lying. You make me laugh. ““ I am not. He hates me because I dated Noah and he always wanted Noah to himself. He is possessive of Noah and hates anyone who comes near him. He wants to get rid of both you and I. That is why he is playing this game. ““ Here see this. “ She shoves her phone screen in front of my face.She has typed ‘ Lucas Knight’s Past Relations.’. Only pictures of him pop up. There is no picture of him with any other women.“ He had never been seen dating any woman! He is gay and wants Noah all to himself but Noah doesn’t know that. I swear he will use us both against each other and at the end get Noah to himself. Why do you think he acts so protective over Noah? I am telling the truth Emma? “ She states in frustration.Looking at her, her words do make sense. But there are still some confusions.“ He said he dated you, and dumped you later. “ I state.
“ It’s not what it looks like. I swear. “ I exclaim, Sophia is there smirking in the corner.“ Then what is it like? You accidentally jumped in his lap? “ Sophia taunts.That bitch! She played me. I should have never trusted her.“ Emma, why? “ Noah questions, still looking down. Refusing to meet my eyes.“ It’s not true. “ I cry. Yet I have no evidence to prove myself true either.“ What is not true Emma? This evidence is not true? Is it photo shopped? “ He shouts, getting up abruptly. In the process throwing his chair back.His chair collides with the wall, breaking and vending in a broken manner. The voice of the wreck shakes my whole body, Sophia does too become a little scared.Like a predator, Noah approaches me.“ I fucking loved you. And this is what I get in return? “ He admits when it’s too late for us.“ You…you were with her too. All the time. “ I say, in my defense not knowing this line can cost me a lot. Espec
Lucas’s POVHer eyes go wide on my statement. She lies on the bed, shocked and scared. Reminds me of a stray kittens.I advance towards her dangerously and she eyes my steps cautiously.“ Sta..stay away from me. “ She warns, trying to act brave. Just like a feral kitten would. But this is just a surplus to my new found amusement.“ Who is going to stop me? “ I taunt.Her breath hitches, and she gulps in fear. I march towards her, the sole of my shows making an echo. The only noise in this secluded place.With swift movements, I drag her from her feet. Making her lie on the bed, flat. Before she can protest or get up. I get on top of her.“ You do smell good. “ I whisper, close to her neck. My breath lightly brushing her skin, making sensations deep with in.“ Please…don’t. “ She begs, again. I wouldn’t take her serious but then I see wetness on her face.I touch her cheek gently and wipe away the tear drop.“ Yo
“ Lucas, what are you doing here? “ I question, a little confused. I thought he already left. But then again I didn’t hear the roar of his engine.Was he waiting for me to get in the house?“ Oh, so you were with him? “ Noah remarks.“ I was, and it’s not what you think. “ I state, meeting his eyes.“ Then tell me, Emma, what is it? “ He interrogates menacingly, holding my forearm roughly. Applying great pressure on it.His grip hardens making me yelp.In return Lucas steps up, pushing Noah back.Noah eyes the both of us, with hardened eyes.“ So this is how it’s gonna be? Out of all the people Emma, you’re cheating on me. “ He states.“ I’m not. Lucas, why are you here? Go! “I shout at Lucas, pushing him back. I can see through his eyes that he feels a little hurt but then it changes to anger. Why would he be hurt anyway?“ I was just saving your stupid ass.
My heart is racing, I won’t be exaggerating if I say a thousand beats per second. My breath shortens, and my lips slightly part. So I can excess sufficient oxygen. The moment prolongs and it feels like hours have been spent standing in the same miserable position.Yet, Noah keeps on looking at the screen. He might have found something. Hope sparks in my body and a I do a little victory dance in my head. Before I can be met with further Great Expectations from this tragic life, the camera breaks!Noah smashes the camera, with full force towards the wall. It shatters into tiny pieces. Something I could never fix back to life. His eyes drift from the wall, slowly towards me. Meeting my eyes. Our gazes lock and I tremble in fear.“ There was fucking nothing in the clip. “ He remarks, eyeing me cautiously. His manner of speaking was quite crude with me. Devoid of any gentleness.There I see Sophia smirk at me. She must have deleted it! Before I can say furth
“ What is that supposed to mean? “ I ask out of utter confusion. My eyebrows raising up in a questioning manner.“ Nothing. We’ll find that out with time. “ Lucas speaks, clearing his throat. Clearly hiding something from me.“ Do you actually know what that means Lucas? Noah saw the video but turned a blind eye to it because he loves Sophia so much. He doesn’t even realize she is killing him, gradually, inch by inch. “ I exclaim.Realization finally hitting me. He ignored that video, maybe because he thought that his love could change Sophia or maybe because he already knew he was drowning and couldn’t be saved.Yet people have drowned, and have been saved from the brink of death. Why didn’t he try? For once at least.But he was Noah Enrique after all. He deserves Sophia. They are a perfect match! The seer and the monster lived happily ever after while Cinderella’s heart was slaughtered, a reality.I’m mad at Disney, got my expecta
Lucas’s POVI was standing in my billion-dollar mansion.It was a cold morning, a little foggy. As I breathed out, I could see most forming. Sunrise was a few minutes away.I took in the cold atmosphere, appreciating the serenity the AM offered. In the distance, I could hear cats fighting.I walked towards he source of the noise. I was met with two fat grey Russian cats. They were growling, well in their own little mind, at each other.I spectated the commotion for a jiffy.They kept on meowing, and displaying an aggressive stance. It reached a point they got into each other’s face, eye to eye. But they backed off on their own.They meant no harm to each other. It was just to satisfy their own egos. Once they were done, they backed off, still eyeing each other keenly.Me and Noah, are somewhat like that. He came to hate me, yet we haven’t caused serious devastation to each other. We’re brothers from another mother.My

One Year LaterLucas’s POVMy body was sweating profusely as I thrusted inside her. She was moaning like a kitten and we were both reaching our peak.I laid gentle kisses along her neck and then reached her plump lips. I dived into her mouth with need, we explored each other’s mouth, and then she broke the kiss, panting for air. While I kept pounding into her love hole.I gentle grabbed her breast and massaged it lightly with my fingers. Kissing each nipple and toying with it, causing her moans to increase. I gently bit one nipple and she hissed.“ Lucas “ She whined and I smiled at that.Increasing my pace, I was getting close and so was she. I pinned both her hands on the bed and took full control. I started thrusting roughly. Our breaths, prolonging.Then we both reached our peak and came together. Completely drained, I fell on top of her. Our bodies, still connected.“ I love you. “ She whispers, still breathless.
I soon shifted with Lucas, it wasn’t a hard decision to make but the whole situation, to me seemed sketchy.I can’t just forgive Lucas after all that he did to me. He broke my trust over and over again, and I still trusted him despite that.It’s not that I’m scared of him breaking my trust, at this point if he does that. I won’t be surprised. I became used to it. But it just doesn’t feel nice to be made a fool of, especially if it’s not him making a joke of me, but it is my own self.As the saying goes:Fool me once, shame on youFool me twice, shame on me.It’s a war within, one I’m scared to lose. I just hope I’m not making any wrong decision because the consequence of that would turn me bitter.I hope he doesn’t hurt me again. I was scared of being hurt initially, now I’m just tired of it.Nonetheless, I still shifted.We settled in his house, I was given a room besides Lucas’s room. Lucas also prepared a separa
Lucas’ POVEmma suddenly faints in my arms, I gently place her in the car. I rush inside the restaurant and get some water.Gently putting some moisture on her face and shaking her lightly, she responds to it and flutters her eyes open.“ Are you alright? “ I enunciate.She looks at me, a bit confused.“ I suddenly felt dizzy and then it blacked out. “ She replies, looking around.“ Relax. “ I reply, gently pushing her back in the seat.I open the bottled water and gently put the tip against her soft pink lips. She takes small sips.“ Lu…Lucas, I’m fine now. “She mutters weakly, trying to get up and out of my car but I block her.“ I don’t think you’re fine Emma. Now sit back. “ I order sternly, leaving no room for argument.I buckle her in and close the door, before going towards the driver’s side. Midway through, I abruptly stop. My eyes sharpen towards the bastard lying on the ground.I stride towards him and
I get up, throwing the comforter on one side and groaning like a maniac.I don’t want to do this. Besides, it’s only a matter of time before Lucas finally brings the company down. He is influential and determined enough to do that.I’ve been so busy, I barely have time to think and I’m glad about that. At least it keeps me away from the fact the I’m pregnant. I don’t ponder about it much, simply because I didn’t have the time to.It takes me some time to prepare breakfast and feed it to Tim. I head to the office. In between the journey, I think of Tim. I have to get him enrolled in a school. He can’t just stay home. He is reaching his age to be in school but I have such a huge mess to deal with.I can’t give Tim a better life, how will I deal with this baby. I would even think about aborting it if I could give it a better life but I’ve failed awfully with Tim.I finally reach the horrific building. My imagination goes wild and I imagine the buildi
Emma’s POVAfter a wonderful morning and evening, I go home. Living my best life, being the CEO. Not having a thing to worry about, making a lot of money.Oh, who am I kidding? This is awful. My mind is filled with haunting scenarios. I reach home extremely weary, but then start cooking something since I’m practically starving.And I’m pregnant, on top of that!It’s not like I’m doing it on purpose though. I just didn’t get the time to eat.I start chopping the vegetables and get some ramen out. I’m making Korean style ramen noodles!It takes little time to prepare as I don’t boil the vegetables for too long. I set up the table. I put some in my bowl and then in Tim’s. I even got some chopsticks!I try to pick up the food with those, struggle continuously for the next 5 minutes and then give up. I’m hopeless.I throw them in the bin and finally get a fork. Tim ends up crackling at my failure. I narrow my eyes at him and his laugh
The next morning, I order breakfast and head to the company soon.Stepping into the office, I feel empty. This is the place where Noah used to work.I look at his chair and break down. This is the place he used to sit at. Everything in his office is still his, not mine.I move his chair to the side and use another one.I can’t sit in his chair, it reminds me too much of him. Besides this will always be his.I also notice a new secretary.“ Hi, I’m Stacy. Mr. Knight hired me when he was handling the company. I’ll assist you from now on Miss Emma. “ She replies with a merry tone.I nod in return.Just then John enters. I remember him, he was the manager in the past. He was kind and we often conversed, something that bothered Noah.He greets me with a smile.“ How are you? I hope you’re coping with the situation well. “ He speaks sympathetically.“ I..I’m okay. Thank you for asking. “ I reply with a merry tone. Eve

Emma’s POVI spend the next few hours, worrying endlessly.Lucas’s words, giving me a bitter headache. I already have a lot on my plate, and now this?I try to call Lucas, it rings for a few torturous seconds. The wait getting to me, I throw my phone on the pillow lightly. Groaning in annoyance.Why isn’t he picking up? He usually does.Abruptly, I hear the bell ding. It’s not my phone, but my doorbell. I rush to the door, thinking it might be Lucas but I find an old man, dressed in a suit.His hair turned grey due to old age, his cheekbones round and shiny.“ Uh, who might you be? “ I ask, dumbfounded.“ I’m Corner, Mr. Knight sent me. “ He announces, grinning.“ You mean Lucas? “ I ask confirming.He nods.“ What for? “ I ask, quirking my brow in confusion.“ Let me inside Miss and I’ll explain it all to you. “ He states.I step away from the door, my body previously blocking the entran
