Richard's POV

No one had told me how emotional it was going to be sending off my family, but this was traumatizing. I was going to keep it locked in for a long while, especially since I had shed a tear or two and Reina had kept on pointing that at me as we made our way to the house. Our home.

“They will be fine”

She sneered at me. “ I think that I should be the one telling you that because I could swear you need it more than me. I bet that if I wasn't there. You would have been wailing non-stop” she mocked.

I toughened up because I shouldn't have shown any sign of weakness at the airport, but this was Reina, and she had seen me in worse state and worse times, so I couldn't see anything wrong with that.

“ At Least it shows how much I love them and there is nothing wrong with that”

I let out a sigh when our home came in view, and she held my hands tight. “I bet Daisy cannot wait to see me. I am going to talk to her about how you have been hard on me on our way here, and she is sur

    Reina's POV The dry chokes that turned into full-blown tears drained me as I let him weep on my shoulders. All of his high resolve, his gentle sneering. His cool act that he had been putting up for a while now crumbling when he was in my arms, weeping. “ Everything will be fine” my hands drifted to the plush doll he was holding. His grip on it was so tight that there was no way anyone could take it out. When he was done, he pulled away, his eyes boring into mine. “ Thank you. For this. For letting me do this. Thank you” “It is what I am supposed to do. Make sure that you are fine. That is something I should always do”.I swallowed because it seemed like he didn't believe me, or rather he was still getting over what had just happened “ You aren't entitled to it. I am supposed to be the strong man and not to weep on your shoulders but now… I have messed it up”Placing my index finger on his lips, I nodded at him not to say a word. “Can you be still?

    Richard's POV“Yes…” I tapped into the phone as my brows dipped while wondering what exactly it was that she must have called me for. A raspy breath ensued with a gentle snap before I heard a tap on the table. “ Mr. Gray, there is a man in here. I don't know, but he came pretty early asking to meet with your wife, and he has been in there for a while. I have been hearing raised tones for a while now, and so I thought it would be best if I informed you”Something slashed through my heart with my heartbeat accelerating by each second that passed.I asked. “ Does this man have a name? Anything at all would do”“ Martin” something sparked within me as the car came to a stop. My heart ignited with the honking of cars behind me as I swept my gaze around. Swerving off course, I couldn't care about what anyone thought presently as all that was in my mind was how to get across to the Gray's corporation to meet Reina. “ Reina!” My scream bounced off against the wall as my hands gripped the k

    Reina’s POV“We can stay back if you are not okay with it” Richard whispered for what felt like the umpteenth time to me, while sniffing on my shoulders. Wincing gently when he bit on my shoulders, I smiled at him, while taking a good look at myself. “You look splendid already, why are you still staring at the mirror when I am supposed to be your mirror?”My teeth dug into my lips, a blush creeping over my face. He was leaning against the door frame, funny how he moved so fast, and I hadn't taken note of it. “Then tell me why exactly is my mirror wanting to strip me naked?” I folded my arms underneath my boobs, probing that. I couldn't ascertain why since he kept touching me and telling me that we could stay home, while telling me his wishes of how he couldn't wait to strip me of the clothes I had on, but something told me he wanted to rip it off instead. “You can't blame me” his scent permeated into my nostrils. His lips hovering on my shoulder blade. A moan escaped my mouth wh

    Richard's POV I had thought that if I had it, I would feel better. At least, I won't feel this ache that I was feeling presently but it seemed all of that was a lie. When I had gotten wind of it, I never knew that it would be my family heirloom, but now I wondered what exactly was in there. The information that was hidden within, that had made the dark organization want it by all causes. I was saddened at the realization that this was my life and I had to make do with what I had. My stomach twisted, and I could feel pain and all that I wanted was to see Reina. I had left her while she was sleeping even when something told me that she wasn't, but I couldn't go back now. The moon had slipped in, and the auction was everything that I had wanted it to be. I was in pain but at least, I would feel better as well. My brows knotted when the bell chimes and my eyes went to the wall clock. It was still late so what exactly would someone be doing there? A gentle tap on the door ensued with

    Richard's POV“ What exactly are you saying? How dare you threaten us?” Martins raved. Does he know how he looked right now? If he did, he would have sat his ass back down on the chair and not moved an inch from where he was seated. He continued, “ Your family heirloom? How exactly do you know that? Let me guess, you are one of those people who are plying fake news? When exactly are you going to learn?” He forced a fake smile on his face. “ If it is, then why do you all look this agitated? I will be nice. Leave now, or I will let my dogs feed on you” I threatened. It wasn't a threat because my rage right now was enormous, and I could do it. Make sure that they all burnt to hell for it. “ You wouldn't” I bobbed my head, a bit startled and curious about what their faces would look like when my dogs were biting on their petty bones. Would they cry? Would they wince out in pain? Or plead for mercy? I was curious to know that. “ Then stay,” I sauntered toward the door.” Because I wi

    Reina's POVNever had I seen him this hurt before, maybe when I had left, but this was something else. His grip tightened around mine as he kept gnashing his teeth in anger or was it pain? Emotions twirled through him, anger, anguish, and rage. All of which I could feel, and I didn't want him to feel all alone in this. Contrary to what we were made to believe, his parents had been shot dead and everyone was made to believe it was an accident when it wasn't. My heart squeezed so tight that it seemed it had been punctured. Repeatedly. “ Why? Why exactly would they kill them when they had already let go?” He questioned. Everyone was still because no one had an answer to the question he had just asked. Neither I nor Ryan. We were never going to know how bad he felt because we haven't been in that situation before, instead all that we could do was to sympathize with him and show him that we were here. My hands smoothened his when a tear dropped on it. My heart flattened as I raised m

    Richard's POV “You have to come back to me, please” Reina didn't want to let me go. I didn't know what to do but me assuring her repeatedly was supposed to have helped and now… I exhaled deeply before patting her back.“ I will come back to you, healthy and fine. So you don't have to worry about that, okay?” I assured her, but it didn't seem like she was convinced by it.She was still, but I could feel the tiny droplets of tears as they rained down on me. They broke my heart and I didn't like that she was tearing up. I was going to do every single thing possible to be alive, and she knew that. “I know that you have to go right about now but what if something happens, what if I don't see you anymore and gosh…” she kept pacing up and down. She was sure moving so fast and now as I threw a glance at Ryan, I muttered to him about the initial plan of leaving while she was fast asleep, but he had contradicted it and looked at where it had gotten us into. “ I am going to come back to you

    Richard's POVI was done with one, but I had one more, one more that needed to go down. For that, I will have to go to the dark organization, it wouldn't be an easy target like Martins had been because it was vast, and it wasn't going to be easy to get in. I was going to desecrate that place, the very one that had killed my parents. The one that I was supposed to head over after my parents, and I didn't know if I wanted that. It didn't boil well with me and now, I was left contemplating on that. “ What is it going to be?” We were a few minutes away from Martin's house, but we could still see the thick smoke which was visible from here. “ The bodies? The fake one? Did you place them in?” “ Yes boss” “ Good” they would be various interviews to find out what exactly had happened to him and I didn't want anything pointing hands at me Luckily, I had ample time to get my men on this case as well. It was working out fine for me. What I had to do was get in contact with them later and m

    Ryan's POV “Am I doing too much?” I questioned Richard who stood by my side. I had on a sea green suit and a blue lapel which was to match with the gown she had on, but she wasn't here yet. I didn't know what to do, if I was going to cry, but I wanted to do this clear headed and without shedding a tear. It wouldn't make me masculine like I was supposed to be. She shouldn't see me tearing up. Richard stood by my side, in a peach suit to match Reina's own. “You doing too much would be you tearing up when she shows up to the aisle, please don't do that. You did before and it wasn't easy for me to stop you, don't make me do that again” he pleaded. I bore a hole in him at the words he had just spoken. He wasn't supposed to say that .He was still going to rub it over my face. “You did the same to me, remember?” he quizzed when he saw the look on my face. “So I don't really think I am doing anything wrong by telling you what I just did” I shook my head, not wanting to listen to him.

    Nina’s POV “ You don't get it Reina” I hadn't known when exactly this had happened, but it was too much. I had given up on Christopher right now because I had no other option, but that was because my mum looked so happy with him. I knew he was young, well, too young if I am asked, but my mother being happy was everything to me and I wanted her to be. “ You both were going at it raw, what did you expect? A truckload of gifts?”Wait, what? “ I am almost in tears right now,” I explained. I just couldn't explain it, but I was really tearing up. She stood up, patting me on the back. “ It's the hormones, you are actually tearing up” “I am pregnant, just a month to our wedding and I don't know how to tell him, the wedding gown won't fit” “ The designer can always work on it, we can have her do that” “ But still, I am not ready for this. I don't know if I want this child, it is too much for me to bear right now, what exactly am I to do?” I questioned. I had to think about this. All t

    Ryan's POV That name didn't ring a bell at all, why would somebody who wasn't affiliated to them do something like that? Or was it that we didn't know what exactly we were searching for? “ I can't really say” We both got into the Porsche as I answered.“ There is no one else that would be able to give an answer except her, but I don't know where she is”“ Who?” “ Her mother of course, I am so sure Nina doesn't know anyone by that name, and it will be so awkward bringing that up to her, we need to be certain. We don't want her suspecting us now, would we?” A part of me was glad that I didn't have to do this anymore, it would have pricked me a bit to know that. Richard was a drive away from the bar when my phone rang out. “ Ryan, where are you?” I could sense the urgency in her tone as she asked. I swallowed, gazing at Richard whose eyes were probing to know what's wrong when I answered. “ With Richard, is something wrong?” “ Yes, can you come over? I am at the morgue and I di

    Nina's POV I had never felt this jittery in years, months even with how tense I was, I thought I was going to mess things up. “ You have to calm down, he is just your mother's spouse” That brings us back to why we were here, my mother's spouse, the one she said she wanted to introduce to me. I had wanted to be here first, just to get along foremost before passing it on to anybody what exactly he looked like, but my mother had insisted I came with Reina. She was better than me, as it was to be expected, and she was here to keep me in place or so I had thought. “ Something bulging your mind?” I shook my head when she asked. We had just gotten to the spot, fine dining with a reservation so difficult to get even if you were well known, but we seemed to be here, my mum had said this was the designated venue, and so we had to be here on time. “ It's now or never” the door opened with a slight push from me and we were in. It didn't take so long to find the booth that we were looking

Stepping on the gas, I couldn't keep thinking of how everything was just the way it should be presently, but there was merely a problem and that one had to be taken care of. I slammed the brakes in front of Richard's company, swept my gaze around when I stepped out of the car, beaming at the CCTV camera that told me he had his eyes glued on it. I figured him letting out a string of curses at what I had just done, before turning his attention back to his pile of documents. When he wasn't with Reina and the kids, playing the obsessed husband, he had his head into his documents trying to work even harder. Stepping into the elevator, I waited for it to drop me in front of his office and when I did, I pushed the door open. “ You should take a breath, you are always working” I pointed at him when I was

    Nina's POV I beamed at the hand that had wrapped itself around me, before kissing me noisily. Pushing him off gently, I let out a plea. “ Let me sleep a bit, hmm” I pleaded while trying to shut my eyes a bit when the scent of freshly baked potatoes and cabbage lamb roast stew had me opening them in a sec. “ You surely do know how to get me” I gave him a slight jab at the arm before staring around, my mouth watered at the sight before me. “A little bit burnt, but I guess it's the intentions that matters” Ryan said while being nervous. I could tell because he was unusually jittery, which wasn't a fine attribute of his person, unless he had done something wrong, or he intended to do something that has him this way, I hope it was the latter because I could do without any huge thing at the moment. “ Spill” I urged, taking a scoop of the delicious goodness in front of me. A moan escaped my lips sending a little tingle in-between my legs when he stared at me like I was the most delic

    Nina's POV “ Mother” I ran across the pavement after slamming the door shut, accepting the hand she had given me. “ Nina” she enclosed me into her arms, savoring the moment. “ Are you okay? I heard about the verdict?” I bobbed at her, giving her an answer. “ It was nothing, I feel better now, and I am glad that I had to watch” She searched my eyes probing before she pulled away, grasping my hands in hers as she sauntered off with me in suite. “ Is something wrong?” She shook her head. We were at our house, the one where everything had gone down, where I had been poisoned, where I had come to seek refuge after Ryan, and where my father had decided to get. We had memories from this house, a lot of it and I would have kept them all if the very last wasn't as painful as it had been. She smiled briefly before shaking her head. “ Would you want anything else? I am bringing down the house”“ Mother” I exhaled. That must have caused a lot of decisions and I didn't really know if

    Nina's POV My hands squeezed around Reina as as we waited for the judge's verdict, my heart slammed so hard as she made a point on how he had committed murder, and had burnt an orphanage killing kids as well. Everyone had watched the video and it had been brutal. So brutal that I had shut my eyes through it all. “ Brian is sentenced to death by shooting for mass murder, and it should be carried out immediately” she snapped the pen she held into two. He stood up, eyes bloodshot as he glared at the judge. My heart spiked as I recalled what he had done the last time, thinking of how he might make a repeat of the same thing, it was going to be heart-wrenching. “ You won't be able to kill me. You won't be able to, what makes you any different from me? You do the same thing as I do, and you are still alive, you can't!” My eyes brimmed with tears in them, as Ryan punched a hand up in the air, his eyes were on me as he mouthed out. “ We did it” I knew he was also trying to tell me abou

    Ryan's POV My eyes slithered into red when I saw him pinning her against the wall. “ Fuck” I cursed, pushing against the chair in my way before shoving the door open. It came open in a crank and shoving him away from her, I threw a punch into his face. He collided against the wall, before aiming one at me. He threw one on my face, which I returned before we were pulled away. “ I will make sure you live the rest of your life behind bars” I yelled at him, venomously. Even if it was going to take my last breath, I was going to make that happen. Nina stood at the far edge, a hand around her neck as she took in gasps of air, pulling off the jacket I had on, I threw it over her before guiding her out. I made sure we were safe in the car before zooming off. I didn't know what I was going to know if he had hurt her more than this, maybe send his body rolling, I would have made him regret every single thing about his life. I might have ended up punching him to death, the rage in me st
