Reina's POV

“ Stop that, you should let your mother rest” Richard chided Kelvin as he held me away from where I was resting gently on.

I would have shouted at him for being tough, but I couldn't bring myself to, not after the relapse I had a few months back.

Everyone had panicked, everyone had kept praying and hoping that I was fine and even Richard had almost broken down but all of that had turned out fine when I got better.

A doctor had been flown in from India who was said to be one of the best and was kept around. It had been challenging to sort him out, but he was a freshman who was a gynecologist, and he had been by my side through it all.

It was said that while he was in school, he had been known as the best graduating one of his set, and immediately he was set to be inducted, Richard had combed everywhere searching for him.

He had offered a fair deal, a hospital and a considerable sum of money that would set him for life just if he could dedicate a year or two to making s

    Nina’s POV “ Mrs. Ryan’’ I waited with anticipation at what the doctor was going to say, my heart flipped when she held my hands enclosing it with hers. “ You are finally pregnant, with twins” The air stilled around me as the bag I was holding dropped to the ground, crystal welled up in my eyes, ones that I pushed away before asking in a hoarse voice. “ I am pregnant?” I asked again, just to be certain that my ears haven't been playing tricks on me. That indeed I was getting my gift after all of these years when I thought that all hope was lost. That it had come at the time when I needed it the most. “ Yes” she bobbed. “ You are pregnant, you are in your early trimester, so you ought to be careful. Your husband would be delighted” Squeezing the paper in my hands, my feet traipsed out of the office, while I sank deeper in thought. Maybe, perhaps this was what I needed to fix our relationship, mine with Ryan. *************** My hand clustered around my phone while I wa

    Nina's POV My eyes flickered open in succession as I threw a quick glance across the room I was in, the air sipping in made my head swelled. I swallowed, running a quick glance around when I noticed that I was alone, bile rose in my throat at the memories from earlier, and I sniffed in, pushing myself up the bed when the door creaked open, revealing Reina who stumbled in, a doctor by her side. “Nina” she shrieked out, rushing to hold my hands. “ Are you fine? You shouldn't be out of bed” I flickered my eyes up at the doctor who approached, while I tried to get his name, but my memory was muddled. “ Ryan…” I swallowed while I called. “Where is he?” She stood, nodded at the doctor who came closer, I reclined against the wall, a pillow placed at my back to aid me to sit properly. “I will be checking your vitals now, so you need to relax” I squeezed my eyes shut, trying so hard not to break down right away as it wouldn't be good. My heart punctured with needles, as I tried

    Ryan's POV “ Get out!” My voice thundered against the wall, while I waited for her to stomp off, I had seen her. Nina stood there and oddly, at that moment when I thought that I didn't love her, that it was going to be fine if I hurt her, my heart had thumped harder, and I felt bad at the betrayal. Dezreel’s face contorted into a frown as she clawed her nails to me, holding my wrist. “What are you talking about?” She frowned. “ You know what you promised my grandfather, that you were going to give him a grandchild soon, that was your end of the bargain, so why exactly aren't you keeping it?” I stalked to the window, the dark slamming back into me, while I wondered what Nina would be doing right now. Would she be asleep? On the couch, like she had been for years now? Would she be waiting at home for me to give her an explanation? My little fluffy bear. I thought it was gone, I thought staying away was going to kill whatever emotions I had for her, but I just couldn't do it.

    Nina's POV No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that I was home, I just couldn't. I walked down the air stairs taking in my surroundings while my mother gestured at the housekeeper who strolled in. “ Young madam” all I did was nod, my stomach was beginning to bulge and everything treated me like I was an egg, soft and tender to hold. I knew that it was all that I wanted but that side of me just couldn't stay still, all I wanted to do was talk to Ryan, let him know what he thought, but I knew that he didn't care, he had never cared and that wasn't going to change. “ Nina” my mother called, startling me from the daydream I was having. “ You should come in, the doctor is waiting for you already, and he is here to examine you. You know nothing must happen to the child in your stomach” “ Children” I corrected. My mother came to a step, gazing at me. “ Yes, I am pregnant with twins” I said to her. She stood deep in thought for a jiffy before she asked “Does he know?” I

    Nina's POV Four years later. My hands ran across the gown I had on, simple yet elegant as I inhaled deeply. I didn't know why I felt this way, but I could tell that something was wrong,a feeling which I wasn't supposed to have but I couldn't help it. Today was going to be the day I got wedded to Brian, CEO of a goods conglomerate, which my mother had hooked me up with. I knew that I wasn't in love, that Ryan still occupied a decent part of my mind but I just couldn't help it. It was a way of putting up a strong front. We had been wrecked from within and someone else had been giving out information, classified ones to our opponents. Goods which we were supposed to launch before others knew about them, got out and everyone knew about it before we could even launch it. All effort to get the scoundrel was to no avail and the stocks were falling off and something to hold a strong front was needed. I wasn't in love with Brian, in fact he knew that and I knew that all he did wa

    Ryan's POV Breathless, that was how I felt when I saw Nina. Gosh, she was always one to take my breath away but here and now, in that dress, she was doing that all over again and it just didn't feel right. After trying so hard to get the bargain off my neck, I had finally done that and I had searched all over for her. Spent so much to get her to my side. Everything was futile until I saw the news that her mother was handing over her company to her. I knew her mother wasn't in support of our relationship but I never knew her mother was this wealthy. That she was the owner of the company, I didn't relent, I just couldn't. I didn't care about her mother's wealth or what she thought her mother would do, all I cared about was her. Her love and making sure that she came back to me with our kids. Richard hadn't talked to me in years, I knew that my actions warranted it but staying all alone, without him or anyone else by my side was like torture. Pure one. I still handled his com

    Nina’s POVI knew that I should have trusted my guts, that when I kept having that twisted one that something was going to happen, I should have taken extra precautions instead of letting things go the way they had. I couldn't describe how I had felt when I had first seen Ryan, I think I had been shocked, but it had escalated to rage which had intensely run fully into anger and all I wanted to do was make sure that he paid for all that he had done. The kids, the kids were one of the reasons I felt so unsettled, his eyes kept going toward them. I knew that Reina had told me he had found out that I was pregnant from the crumbled notes I had left close to the bin, but this was taking it too far. “ What do you think you are doing here? Spilling out trash from the nonsense you call a mouth!” I demanded an answer. If he was offended by my hand that had smashed his face, he didn't say it. All that he did was stand like he had been spellbound, his eyes roaming around until they were on me

    Ryan's POV My hands swept through the table, every single thing on it hitting the damn floor while I tried to think.It wasn't clear to me why but seeing her leaning against Brian's hands had sparked off something within me that I knew I couldn't contain. I could feel the rage spilling through while I tried to come up with something to get her back. The bell rang, and my secretary walked in, a poker look on his face. “Yes?” I asked. I had changed every single stuff on my floor a few months back after finally getting a way out of the bargain. Every single woman has repulsed me and although it has taken Dezreel a lot before she had agreed to let me go, including the death of her father, she had succumbed to it later on, but not without letting me know that she was going to rain hell on me. Hell on me? I had scoffed. No one else can except I gave the person the right to. Oddly, I had everything now, power, money, and even fame and I still felt hollow, still felt withdrawn like I had

    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

    Nina's POVMy heart sledged against my rib cage while I watched Ryan navigate his way as he drove down. I thought of how Brian was in cuffs, how all of those girls were going to be served justice soon, even my secretary and I couldn't have been happier. The thought of her stabbing him even when he had shot her still sent shivers down my spine. I didn't understand why she had done that, I wouldn't have known until she had told me that I was the first person who had treated her in such a way. My hands moved on my gown, tapping on it repeatedly when a hand clasped around it, trying to get me to stare at him. “ I am fine, just focus and drive” “ You are agitated, are you fine?” “ I am” I answered, my voice betraying my words. He swerved off course, slamming the brakes before peering at me. “ I am not a fool, fluffy bear, what is in your mind?” He questioned again. I chewed on my lips, gazing at him before the words came out. “ I just think he should have been found earlier, I m

    Nina's POV “I am fine” I tried to shrug his hands off. He was being a worrywart. “You don't have to come with me’’ I tried to get him off my back. I mean we were in the penthouse together, and although the kids weren't here, I knew they were okay. I was fine as well, but Ryan wasn't so sure of that, seeing how he was constantly on my heels. “Really? It is the same spot, it isn't that far from the stairs” I glanced up, directing his gaze to the spiral step. He shook his head, nor listening to me. “You can't understand how I felt when I saw you being bonded into the car, I had never felt so helpless, I mean, in the courtroom everyone knew me as the best, but there, I couldn't do anything” he confessed. My heart stilled while I watched him. “I know that I shouldn't think about that, but I was already doing so. I thought about what would happen if he used you as one of his trophies. I was already thinking of how to make him pay, but inwardly, I hope that you would be fine, for me,

    Nina's POV When I had felt the needle prick my skin, I couldn't move an inch, no matter how hard I tried to, it was impossible for me to. I had pleaded, bawled my eyes even before I lost consciousness. When I was awake, I found out I was lying on the ground, not tied up, but I was lying down on skulls, and sharp bones which jabbed into me. I had tried to stand up, but a closer gaze at where I was had me wobbling, a scream had left my throat at what I was seeing while I had stumbled backwards. I hadn't known this, knew that he had this. He had always lived a spotless life, at least that's what my mother and I had known, we hadn't known about this, hadn't thought that he was capable of decapitating humans, of storing humans, of killing them, making trophies out of them. We hadn't known how much of a psychopath he was, that he had a habit of collecting trophies, human ones. Chills had run down my spine, countless times that I had forgotten to breathe. When I had finally pushed o

    Ryan's POVI kept muttering out words which were incoherent even to myself while Nina was in my arms. I tried to get up, tried to think, I knew that she needed to be out of here, that we both had to be out of here, but my knees were stamped to the ground. A hand grasped my shoulders, jolting me up. “You have to leave, get her to the hospital” I flickered my gaze around, a string of curses leaving my lips as I did so. I searched around, for his gait, to see him with cuffs clicked on his wrist, but he was nowhere to be found, I threw the thought that told me he had fled away, that couldn't have happened. “Brian, where is he?” I questioned Richard, whose face gave an answer I didn't want to believe. A cackle left my lips, reverberating across the room. “You can't let him go, the kids, our kids, Reina, they are there, he might hurt them” He shook his head at me, peering once more in my arms. “Get out of here, let me handle the rest”I forced myself up, nodding at him before I tra

    Ryan's POV A dip, that was what I had felt when I had pushed the door open, and she wasn't in there. I had tried to convince myself that she would be in the room, she would be in the bathroom, she might have taken a walk, but I knew that wasn't it. My third senses didn't just agree with what I thought it was, so I had pleaded with Richard to get access to the CCTV, and he had. “ She is heading towards the back door, I am going to give an order for all doors to be locked right away, get her back man”His words would have sounded right if I hadn't chased down like a mad man, and watched as she was yanked into a car, a midnight black sports car. I had raced down, sprinted down the stairs with both hands on my hips as I took in gaps of air. I chewed on my lips, until I could feel the crimson taste, the coppery taste sluicing through my senses. I heaved, before punching into the wall as I slipped into my car, chasing after them. I was going to be a fool to let him take her away from

    Nina's POVI felt like a mess, the only thing that no one else wanted to associate with, I didn't want to think about what exactly Brian would be thinking, I didn't want to know why I hadn't even thought about the fact that he had such tendencies, was I ever in love with him? No, so why was I unable to see it? I hated it, with each fiber in me when people were in such an uncomfortable place because of me. I could sense it, the hesitation, the hurt that filled Reina's eyes. I was the cause of all that. I always made things happen, and when they did, they always hurt everyone around me. I chewed on my lips before breaking off my thoughts. “ You aren't the cause of anything” Ryan cupped my face as he whispered at me. I tried to believe that I wasn't, it was going to mean a lot, but I couldn't do so. I always did this, I had done this to mum, and it hadn't been funny. “It is fine, I want to go home” she insisted. Home wasn't going to be the little white bungalow that Ryan had built

Why would she ever think that? Why was she going to think that she would ever wreck my life? Even if she did, she would do so in a good way. She was the only thing that sparkled in my life, so what exactly had she been thinking? Was she really going to act as if she didn't know? That she didn't have a clue of how much she meant to me? What she actually meant to me? How I will raze everywhere down if it meant me being with her again? “ My fluffy bear” I flicked the tears off her cheek. “ Why would you ever think that? Why would you ever think that you wreck anything?”The tears ran down her cheek, while I patted her back, letting her lean on my shoulders. “ You will never be a wreck to me, you mean the whole world to me, don't you know how whole you make me feel?
