“He brought you home again,” My mom said calmly while I stepped further into the apartment, I could feel her eyes on me as I skidded into the space. I had taken off my shoes and walked into the living area which had a bit of Avalons toys, I picked up a couple of the books on the chair and tucked them into my side.

“Yes, i fell asleep and he woke me up-”

“After I called a bazillion times.” she stated with a bit of a amusement in her voice, I pushed the door opened and she followed me inside, I dropped Avalon’s book on my desk and then my bag followed. My mum leaned on the door frame while I removed the rest of my clothing, each piece dropping to the ground.

“I'll take Avalon down to bed and you should get washed up.” she said and walked away, there was a bit of pause on my end and when I heard the door close I sat down at the edge of the bed and exhaled.

This wasn't how I wanted it to turn out to be, I didnt want my family to think I was in love again. I mean wasn't. Arthu

    Danielle povI know when something is usually off, i can feel it and today when the elevator parted ways for me to the office i realized why. Arthur wasn’t in yet and that was really odd seeing that he was in five minutes before i came in myself, always. I checked my wrist watch to see if it was broken, a thirty minutes after seven. Definetly not broken, i turned around again to stare at the wall clock, it was still the same. Nothing was wrong with me or my watch, everything was just fine except the fact that Arthur had not yet come in.“Maybe he’s just running late.” i tried to console myself and went straight to work, i checked my phone occassionally for any message that may have slipped through and when i saw none i made up my mind to focus on my work and not worry about Arthur.11:OO AM.It was 11 and there was no way i could stop worrying. It was unlike him to not show up without any prior information. So i placed a call through, my feet tapped on the ground and my buttom lips we

    Dani POVLunch had ended early and we were heading back to the office, i was behind as i checked my phone for any updates but it was still blank. I raised my head when we got closer and found familiar black car parked out in front, and then the familiar hair of the man i had just seen in the tabloids with another woman. As if sensing that i was closeby, he turned in my direction as i halted in my steps. His eyes bore into mine like a predator who just found his prey, there was something about the way he stared, and i was familiar with that look, he wasn’t happy. The rest of my colleagues greeted him with a slight bow as they entered the building leaving me behind with Arthur who still had his eyes on me.“Mr. King.” i said dryly and his brows arched briefly before he turned away leaving me, but it was clear that he wanted me to follow him and so i did. I followed him inside, and everyone stood at attention as they saw him, no one had smiles on their faces, and every shoulders was upri

    Arthur POVWhy were there pictures of Dani and I on the internet? My brows creased and my lips pursed in a tight line, Zach was supposed to take care of this and he told me he had. So why then where the pictures from last night on this page. I stared at my phone screen again and paced around my room, the light from the rising sun drapped over my bare chest adn i raked my hands through my ruffled hair.This was not a great way to start the morning.I walked into my bathroom at the same time my phone began to ring and without looking at the screen i knew it was Zach. I waited to hear from him and he spoke.“We did take care of him but we were a bit late, it seemed like he knew that we were going to come for him and managed to share the pictures through an untraceable network.” My hands curled around the sink as i stared at my reflection in the mirror.“So what happens now?” i asked letting out a deep sigh.“Well, i think it’s best to create a news that will oerthrow this in now time.” i

    Danielle PovI’ve walked in fast strides like i did today, i clutched the bags in my hand and sucked on my buttom lips. I was nearly there, it was all just a couple of feet away. I pushed through the doors and entered inside the apartment building. The racing of my heart calmed down when i unlocked the doors with my keys.“I’m home,” I said as I locked the door, I took off my shoes and raked my hair with my fingers.“Mummy!!” Avalon squealed and then i stopped picking her up in a hug, i smiled and held her in my embarce, she smelled like soap meaning she just showered.“Hey love, how are you?” i asked her and she stared at my face, her fingers picked at the strands of hair on my face, her lips was molded in a pout and her small palms pressed hard on my cheeks.“I am fine, had a really long nap after you left for work and after i had breakfast with grandma, and then i did a couple of things-” she paused and tapped her chin with it, “I did want you to look at something for me.” she said

    Dani pov“Dani!!” My head turned as I stopped right outside the building, my hands curled around my bag and my eyes skimmed to the direction of the voice, it was Robert and he was hurrying in my direction.Oh boy.My feet bounced as I waited and when he finally caught up with me, he smiled, brushing a part of his hair to the side. I took in his appearance, a white dress shirt tucked into black slacks, he had a bag slung on his shoulders and his wristwatch which probably cost hundreds of dollars glistened in the light.“Hey- “ i paused , realizing i may have forgotten his name.“Rob- you can call me rob.” he said and tucked his hands into his pants pockets. “How are you?”“Oh i’m good,” i replied walking towards the door which slid open, the cold air from the conditioners blasted in our faces, even with my jacket on the goosebumps rose within me. “How are you and how did your weekend go?” I replied and the moment I caught the sight of excitement in his eyes I knew that i may have falle

    Dani POVShe had to be joking right? I asked myself when i dropped my phone down. Juliet and Arthur were pretty close and it was clear that he had a soft spot for her in his heart.“You look like you could murder someone right now.” I raised my head at the sound of Robert's voice, he had some files tucked in his hands and his phone in the other, he was wearing glasses and he looked at me with concern.“Hey Rob-” I muttered putting a smile on my face. “What are you doing?”“Oh, I just finished photocopying some files, heading to HR to submit them. What about you? Where are you going to?”I groaned and closed my eyes.“I have to be be somewhere and i dont even know the place, and i’m not even supposed to be there until eleven, and she’s already threatening me.” I poured out and he only chuckled.“Is it Juliet?” he asked and i stared at him. Did he also know Juliet? As if he could read my mind he answered.“Yes, our families do go way back and our grandparents had put them together.” he

    Dani POV“Oh boy.” i muttered to myself as i stepped out of the car, closing the doors behind me, i tucked my hands behind me and stared at Juliet who was staring at something over my shoulders. Hearing the car door close i put it together that she was looking at Robert who was now standing beside me with his hands shoved in his pocket.Juliet in her robe and heels walked off the stairs towards us- specifically Robert and stopped in front of him.“You’re a king?” she asked with her fake smile as her eyes roamed over Robert who didn't seem bothered by her gaze. “You do have his striking eyes and hair, you’re Zach’s son?”“Yes, i am and you’re the one who wanted Danielle to walk all the way from the gates to the main house.” Robert said curtly and even though it was subtle, it was there, Juliet's brows ticked in annoyance.“It was all a misunderstanding- i’m sure you’re aware of how people can be sometimes, especially with people like us.” she said with her lips spread and her white tee

    Dani pov“Do you have a problem with what I said?” She turned over to me and she asked, her eyes glared down on me; if they could kill? I would have turned to dust at that exact moment. I gulped before I answered, I really thought I didn’t say that out loud.“No, we don't have a problem but there is a much better way to find the dress, we have to look for it.” I responded as I was liked further into the room, I moved closer to where Mara was. I decided to show concern but in reality, I wanted to leave her without wasting any more seconds.“May I know what the dress looks like? So it can aid the search?” I asked to ease the room, Mara seemed tense already. Her hair felt falling apart as she tried to pack it into a bun, she was struggling as she sighed so many times, I could see the stress and anger all over her. She kept closing her eyes and blinking, it seemed like she didn’t want to shed a tear, her hardest wasn’t even enough. I felt for her.“Right? Why don’t you ask me to book you

Anger seered through me as it struggled to stay afloat with my fear which tagged easily. If he was alive, there was large chance he would hurt Ava to get to me. He had come back for me, to get me to back back to what i did to him.“Arthur!!” Zachary yelled from behind me but i kept on walking as wheels turned in my head. “Wait the hell up!” He grabbed my upper hand and yanked me but the persons face i saw was Danielle.“What?!” I snapped, not caring if they all saw me loose.“Where are you going? You can’t just keep leaving me in the dark. At least tell me what you have planned.” Dani stated with strong words but it wasn’t going to work so i laughed. I laughed not at her but at the entire situation.“Don’t you get it Dani, if my father had Ava and your mother, there is no plan. There is nothing i can think off that’ll work- its always a loosing game with him. He knows me

    Dani POV“......she is the mother of your child..” Zachary’s words echoed in my head as i stared at the man i had trusted since the very first day.“What the hell does he mean?” I repeated as if i didnt hear myself the first time.“Dani- i can explain...”“Then do just that!! Explain to me why your brother thinks i’m the mother of your child, and you didnt seem surprised by it and what child!! I sure as hell know that its not Ava- she- she can’t be yours-”“You better believe it Danielle, my brother may be a liar but i am not.” Zachary said mildly. “Dad!!” Robert scolded but it was too late, the damage has been done already.“And you–” zachary turned to Robert. “You were supposed to keep an eye out for her. You had one simple job-”“I guess we both have something in common, don’t you think dad?” Robert muttered bitterly but Zachary remained calm.“Lets leave the two to settle themselves,” “Dad-”“ its about time he told her Robert, he has always been looking for a chance, now seems lik

In the past years, my family had been threatened in more than one way and every single time, they’ve regretted targeting my family but now it felt different and it was obvious why, they had taken someone I thought i had lost before now, My daughter. They had taken Ava.“Arthur, what is happening?” She asked as she followed behind me, my hands ran through the screen of my phone hitting numbers that should be around, it was a good sign that she did not know just yet-“I’m not moving one more step until you tell me what is going on.” She halted with both hands by her side as she stared at me, she could sense that something was wrong.“I know you are worried but i can explain on-” Her phone buzzed in her hands, and with a reluctant gaze she stared at her screen and in seconds her eyes widened.“

    ighty Five Dani POVAlex thiago was nothing i imagined, he wasn’t a man with white hair who was partially bald and had rounded shoulders. He was a man over six foot and had no bald hair, infact his grey hair was neatly styled on his head and the wrinkles on his face was highly controlled. His dark hazel eyes were electrifying that even as he stared at Arthur and I, i felt more to be of his target.“I’ve told you to call me Alex, son.” He replied and shook his hands with a small hug as though they’ve been friends for a long time.“Where is Patricia?” Arthur asked as Alex gaze shifted to me, he took my hand and placed a kiss to the back of them.“She’ll be here any mom-” A woman with Aubrun hair and dark red dress hurridely stepped outside.“Babe, i told you to wait for me.”“Our guest are here already, i didnt have to wait for you before attending to them but i’m sorry. You look beautiful love.” Alex said and pulled his wife who was way shorter than him even in her heels. She looked yo

    Dani POVArthur countenance changed when i turned to check if he was following, his eyes were narrowed at his phone and his lips were in a thin line. I could count the number of times Arthur was worried by something and he never lost his composure, but this time, it felt different. He was disturbed, and he didnt seem to have it under control.I had been so carried away by what I was seeing that I didn’t notice him slacking behind and now he had probably seen something that would cause his mood to be foul for the rest of the day.With guilt eating my stomach, I walked towards him with my brows furrowed. He raised his head just before I got to him and just like always he tried to hide it but it was too late.“Hey, is everything okay?”“I should be asking you that question,” I countered and his brows shut up.“What do you mean-““No lies Arthur, I saw your face, you saw something really unpleasant. What did you see?” He stared at me, either stunned to speak or trying to come up with an a

    Arthur POVShe was in my arms when i stirred awake, cuddled right next to me with her lips slightly parted. I had passed out on the couch with her resting on me and it was one of the best sleep I’ve had in weeks. Even though my legs hurt from not having a place to properly rest, it was worth it.My body had given out to the stress from the past couple of days and it was clear that i needed the rest. I checked the time on the wall and realized we still had four more hours until it was dawn, meaning two things. I either go back to sleep or i begin my day.“What are you thinking about?” She was awake. Her eyes were still closed making me wonder how she could tell.“How-”“Your heartbeat, it started racing few seconds ago-” she paid attention to the little things and it marvelled me.“Sorry if i disrupted your sleep.” I apologized as she sat up.“Its fine, are you okay?” She asked while brushing her hair carefully behind her ears.“Yes- its just two a.m. meaning you need to get more sleep

I was going to forgive them and move on just so i can get her back but she said that she didnt deserve to be with me, that she could do so much better, and that i was carried away with everything that had happened in the past and not focused on her.”“Arthur-”“I blame myself for it but it hurt after telling both of them seperately that i had started seeing a therapist already. It hurt because i trusted them so much, all jake did was gloat and after Juliet realized i wasn’t running after her like she imagined, she started running to me. Seeing her face was enough pain on its own, my mind always brought back the images of of the both of them- and the funny thing is that they did it in our room back in college-”“Arthur, I’m so sorry.” I muttered, it was horrible watching your best friend and girlfriend lie to you and betray you- my heart ached for Arthur. He had gone through so much

I barely slept and all I did was stare at my door waiting for either my father to come through it and drag me out or my mother to hold me and tell me she was sorry for leaving me alone.” He admitted and I turned to him, he was playing with the strap of the silver watch on his wrist.“I also wanted to see Zachary come in through the doors and tell me that everything I had done was not my fault but it never happened. I blame myself for everything that happened between us- it's safe to say that we both need professional help.” He joked at the end but now that he mentioned it, it wouldn't be a bad idea.“It's not going to be bad.” My hands slipped to his and with a gentle squeeze he turned to me, with a smile. “So, mind telling me abo

My flip flops which were in front of my room was no where to be found.“Anna!!! Its not funny if you tell me to hurry up and take my flip flops.” I yelled back at my cousin. It was difficult leaving with my cousins since my dad promised that we would soon be out of there.“Mum!! Can you help me with another-” A pair of fresh flip flop is hurled at my head and i’m only seconds late as one of the pair slaps my cheeks. With a loud hiss, i spotted my mum waiting with narrowed eyes and the acidic words in my mouth dry out.“You have something to say young lady?” I shook my head and ran outside with the new pair in hand, the car was going to be occupied and i needed to pick the best spot- my spot to avoid anything or anyone messing this trip for me.My face fell when i spotted Unle Lee seating at the middle, just by the window, my spot.“Why is he there?” I asked
