Hello everyone. I am sick and down with a fever, and I am trying my best to recover, I edited the whole book and deleted the duplicated chapters. Your comments on this chapter would help me feel better, Takers on Priya?
The next day,With a groan, Natasha yawned loudly on the bed. They rays of sunlight from the window peeking into her face. Making it shine gracefully.She peeked through her left and could see Alec, with his eye lids chapped together, for a moment, he looked really cute. He slept calmly. Was this how he always slept? so calm, as if it was the end. She stared at him with amused lips. Her hands itching to touch his cute face.For a moment, she tried to restrain her self but her stubborn hand made way to touch his face. She ravished his face with her hand, her heart pounding as she did so.For a moment, Alec's eyes chapped open making her face wide in horror. Quickly, he grabbed her arm."What are you doing?" His icy cold voice gretted her immediately."Umm, Umm. There was something in your face," Natasha quickly added, a blush forming in the corner of her cheeks.He stood up from the bed, and cupped her chin. "You know, you could just admit what you were really doing, planning to kiss
Natasha wiped the years that stranded her cheeks, she blinked her eye lids, and stared blankly, her heart pounding. What should be done now?Did Alec really loved her? or was their whole relationship just a joke? And even though, she wanted to trust him, she just couldn't, he left her to suffer. She didn't want that to happen again.She was going to be strong, not for Alec, but for her kids, she was going to lead a good example for them, she was going to lead them right, even without their father.Making up her mind, she twisted the door knob, and came out of the room, feeling confident.Alec cringed his head and sighted Natasha, he could only nod, his mouth forming an 'O'.She walked up to him boldly; though her head stucked to the ground."I am sorry for what I did earlier, it was wrong and totally unprofessional, I understand if you want to fire me." She said, biting her lower lips.Alec gazed at her, was the woman out of her mind?"Look at me," He said with authority.As if his co
And only then did Natasha panic. Alec stared for a brief while, hints of soreness clearly shown in his face, holding Natasha's hand tightly, he said. "Thank you, but, I do not appreciate you trying to blame my future wife." And with that, he walked away. The woman stared with hints of confusion, she blinked her eye lids, before walking away in embarrassment. The hall was bustling, the party was one of a kind. It was clearly extravagant, and everyone knew that. "Yo Alec." A lousy voice called out, Alec turned to look at his business partner, Mike. "Don't act shy, just act professional, and do everything I tell you to do." Alec said before pulling her towards the long lounge that spread across the hall, it was in scripted, "VVIP." Waiters gushed over there, expecting to get a big tip, but, as always they were lashed by the rich people. "Alec, who's this girl I see with ya?" Mike asked, as soon as Alec took his seat, with Natasha. Natasha, blinked her eye lids. Maybe. It was bette
"Shall we dance?" His voice blew over her like a cold breeze, she swept over her hair, to gaze at him.Alec stared at Mike, obviously, he was displeased. Why would he dance with his assistant? this was absurd.Mike on the other hand, grinned hardly, before grabbing Natasha's hand, "Let us dance."And the next minute, he swept her off the dance floor, everyone turned and paused to catch the couple dancing. Natasha and Mike, they made a good team.Mike had his arms stuck on Natasha's neck, as she dazzled her around the dance floor.Natasha bit her upper lips slowly, before turning to look at Mike."Umm. I not really good at dancing." She hurriedly said."Really? didn't you take any lessons for dancing?" Mike asked, as the dazzled the dancefloor with the gaze of others stuck between them."I didn't." Her voice came out slowly, she was scared."Oh, I remembered how Natasha, Alec's ex wife didn't know how to dance, she was so weak, since she didn't belong to the rich people, he would alway
"What do you mean? I am not Natasha, my name is Cindy." Natasha squeezed her face, trying her best to hide her identity.Jace gazed at her, before leaving in and pinching her cheeks softly, "Natasha, you can't lie with me. I recognize you that instant."And then, Natasha broke into a sweat, "Who are you really?" She glared dangerously into his eye lids.He laughed before slowly muttering. "Did you forgot me that instant?" His face was gloomy, probably he want in a good mood.Natasha banged the table hard. "I said who the hell are you?" Her hands hurt from the force applied on the table."I am Jace, your best friend at elementary school, can't believe you forgot about me so quick." He sighed, gazing at the plate of food on the table.Natasha widened her eyes in surprise, oh my. "Jace, is that really you?" Her voice was laced with happiness as she embraced him tightly. "I miss you so much." A tear ran down her cheek."I was wondering what happened to you." Her voice cracked a little."
Natasha's eyes felt dizzy, she tried her best to click it open, but, again, she drifted off into the darkness.She tried the same motive again and again, but, it was always like before, she still felt into darkness.After repeated movements, she fluttered her eye lids innocently, before staring at the dark room, just a chair which she was tied to with a cord and a the dangling globe which brought out no use.Natasha struggled with the cord, but, it hurt her hand more and more. Tiny tears rolled her cheeks.She tried remembering what happened, she recalled when she talked with Jace, and when he left her. She was on her way to the ball when she got caught and so men held her tight, so what in heck happened? and why is she trapped here?Streaks of sweat formed a layer in her forehead, she tried her best to wipe away the sweats, but, the cord held her hand and neck stronger."Where am I?" She muttered to herself slowly, gazing at the creaked door, she widened her eyes a little as a figure
"Boom, I got the location." Mike rubbed his hand with satisfaction. Only then, did Alec feel a ray of hope.There were some hope right? A little smile formed at the corner of his lips."What now?" Mike asked, shrugging his shoulders with low esteem."We have to get to the location you idiot." Alec ran to his car and got inside. In a fit, he started the engine and drive off immediately.Mike who was distracted stared with widened eyes, and ran after the car. "Hey, this is not fair, wait for me," He ran as his legs could carry him.Ten minutes later, they were at an uncompleted building, the whole reeked of nothing but alcohol.Alec opened the door and stepped out of the car, he covered his nose and stared around.Mike arrived at the area, he wiped his the layer of sweat, and stared his around."Jeez. This place stinks," Mike said with a frown emitted on his face.Alec stared around. His fist making a ball. "Blood will spill tonight," He stared at the night sky suddenly muttering in som
"You can never escape this way," The stranger yelled. Suddenly, a loud siren sounded everywhere.Bommm. The door creaked open and ten huge men came in, their balls unto a fist."No, No, I can't do this," Mike shuddered behind Alec. His face glared with terror clear written everywhere."Be strong." Alec pushed him aside and gazed at the men."You wanna fight? sure, we will fight," His lips formed into a smirk.The huge bodied men smiled, they were ready for a right, they looked huge, probably they had been training for years now.Immediately, they charged towards Mike and knocked him down, causing Mike to blank away.Alec scoffed internally, "What a weak Mike!"He then rolled up his sleeves, and charged towards them.He grabbed the hand of one, and suddenly twisted his hand in a motion, the man fell on the floor immediately.Natasha watched in horror, as Alec took down all those guys one by one, in between a minute, cries of pain were heard all around the room, it was painful to one ea

One year later,Thanksgiving day.The room smelt like any other thanksgiving room, roasted turkey, cream, salad and a bunch of people sipping wine. The dinner was about to start, and soon everyone was going to be saying what they were thankful for.Zoey recounted, she didn't even know where to begin, just one year ago, her life had changed ever so much. Perfectly well, it had gone along.Dexter came into her life, Rafael stumbled in, and oh, she didn't know how, but they both loved her daughter so much, well. Zara better get used to having two overprotective fathers.Miranda, Stella and Zoey have become quite the inseparable trio, having tea on Mondays, hitting the gyms, and gossiping about their husbands.Presently, Zoey was sprawled on the bed, her hands swiping through her phone, just waiting for it to be ringing, finally it chimed. She swiped it up immediately."Stella!" She beams, cheeks pink. "How's the baby moon going? Is Mexico alright?"Stella's voice sounded so angelic from
Two Months later."Zoey hurry! We don't want to be late for Sky's concert. Do we?" Stella yells from the bedroom, her gaze directed at the dressing room."Coming! Just trying to get the zipper on, damn, it's too hard!" Zoey yells back.Stella takes in a little giggle, and stares outside the room, the view is perfect, she could see the sun set even from here. She was having a giddy feeling today, but it didn't sum up her excitement.Today was Sky's first concert after his music block has been overcomed and he was singing his new song. People are flooding all over Los Angeles just to hear his voice, She, Zoey and the rest already got their tickets. She couldn't wait to see him sing after his music block. Excitement is washing over her. She can't wait.Zara enters the room, a smile on her face. "Aunt Stella!" She throws herself towards her."How was your night? Little Pumpkin?" Stella nudges her hair playfully, her hands moving to tickle her."It's fine." Zara scrunched her nose, before
Even though one week had passed and everything seemed to be moving well, Zoey still felt this urge: sinking and swimming through her, prompting her to see her mother in jail, so that's why early in the morning, she got into her Sedan and drove towards the lane."What do you want?" The receptionist barked at her, her face gruff, prison was not a good place, no doubt. It smelt of stale coffee, the place looks rugged, like criminals had been jacked into this place, struggling to get inside."I want to see my mother." Zoey made to speak again, but the angry looking woman waved her off."Sorry. Kid." The woman puffed her cigar in between her hands, "But visiting hours are over, if you would please return later, I am sure you would be entertained with whoever you want to meet."The woman is really rude, no doubt, but Zoey doesn't want to leave without seeing her mother. Sometimes, your name is very important, and if using that name would get her what she wants. Then, why the heck not?She
The whole room felt so small as Zoey ran past them, it was like oxygen was racking her spine as she counted the rooms. Her breath was short-lived, she could only pray under her breath."Zara!" She calls out, fear evident in her voice, the pain of losing her own daughter sends tears to her eyes. The hall was stretched out, too many rooms. The stairs looking back at her.She stopped at the living room, she could feel the throbbing in her head."Zara! Please come out. Please." She just stood there rooted, it was like the alarm was buzzing in her head: countdown, five, four..Sweat clanged the corner of her hair, she checked her father's study, it looked rather untouched. Her father's favorite novel, 'Rich man, poor man,' sat there elegantly on the table. Hope. It needled through her, then vanished into thin air. She called again, this time more loudly, perhaps her daughter might hear her. "Zara!" The room was eerily quiet.With lost hope, she just stood there, she would rather blow with
The next day came rather too quickly, and like her mother used to say when she was young: You just have to face it.So, when she sprang up from the bed, she kissed Dexter on the forehead gently before heading downstairs. Rafael was by the counter making cereal for her daughter while balancing a cup of coffee on one hand."Ready for the big day, huh?" He hands her a cup, while gently pouring the milk into the bowl, Zara watches with her eyes fluttering."It's funny how you made it sound so casual." Zoey says casually, everything has been planned, they are all meeting up in her father's house. Nova, her husband, Alec and his wife, Stella and Sky. Miranda was going to meet them there.Zara shoves her spoon into the bowl, her mouth full of corn flakes. "Mother. Can I come with you? Pretty please?""Yes. Dexter and I will get the car ready, why don't Rafael pick out your dress, okay sweetheart?"She nods and focuses on her food, just by staring at her daughter makes her heart swell, the on
In life, you could be either lucky or unlucky, but there's no such thing as luck or not luck, it's the chance we have, it's the choice we get that defines us, not our luck, that's why as Lin sat down, fiddling with the hemline of her gown, she recalled all the choices she had got to make, and one of them dealt with forgiving her husband, Asher.He was only being threatened, he just wanted to protect her. He loves her, that's why he wanted to protect, because for the person you love, you could go through extreme lengths just to make sure they were safe."Lin? Lin, are you listening to me?" Asher said, clutching the cup of coffee in one hand.She snapped out of her daydream, before staring around, waiting. What was he saying? She didn't even hear a thing."I was saying whether we should take the kids to Disneyland this year?" That was one thing she would always love about him, his ability to remember anything."But Mommy, we went to Disneyland last year!" Her seven year old daughter wai
Stella had imagined countless things in her life, but here she was. Seating opposite her parents with Sky by her side, this time. She wasn't scared, hope brimmed in her chest, because with him she felt strong, she felt like somebody."You want to date him?" Her mother said, under those lashes of hers, her words held some kind of deep warning, "What about Doctor Rodriguez?"Her father dropped the spoon on the plate, the metallic sound filling their eyes. "Stella dear. You can't go out with him. He's not for-""I didn't come here for your approval." Her tone sent them all warning, Sky placed his hand on her shoulder, his gaze, a reassuring one. He turned towards her parents."I am Sky. Well, I dated your daughter, until you threatened me to leave her, I fell in love with her, again. I fell hard, I am still falling for her. She makes me, she completes me. I love her so much."Neither of them blinked."And I am sorry, but you can't stand in the way of our love," He breathed in, "She helpe
Loud chattering filled the room, kids chasing each other, muttering words under their breath, some kids sprawled on the neat blue rug, playing with their toys.The kitchen linked to the living room, some adults were leaning against the island, each gripping a glass of wine. There's some muttering, no laughter here, just clear talking.Relax. Zoey's head throbbed, but she just couldn't. Dexter's hand was placed on hers, it was warm, at least that made her calm down a little, but still. She wanted to sprang up the seat, and protect those she loved, her mind reeled. To her mother's word, to Lin's words.Thankfully, Zara was talking to her cousin 'Damien', they seemed to be arguing though, but hey, it was her daughter."Everybody." Natasha clicked the glass, the whole room went silent. The kids stopped and turned to look at her, immediately she received the call, she didn't know what prompted her to call Natasha, Natasha was soothing on the other end, and they agreed to call a meeting.Li
