Tia. Luke was worried about the attack; I could understand. I was surprised we survived. The goddess must be preserving our lives for a purpose because those assholes had us, and they would have killed us. Luke was angry, and I could understand his annoyance. I knew he opted to use a cab so we coul
"Turn around for me," Luke said with lust in his eyes, and I gently turned around. "Beautiful," he breathed, and I picked up the glass of juice and took a sip. Watching him with my eyes, he put down his laptop and came toward me. My heart began to race in my chest, wondering what he would do to me
"Alpha, Luna!" She said. She was finding it hard to coordinate her speech. "Breathe and tell me what the matter is," I told her, and she looked at Luke. "Miss Barnes, sir, she drank poison," she said, and Luke quickly ran towards Elisabeth's room. Seeing the speed with which he moved broke my hear
Luke. I could not believe the level of Elisabeth's selfishness and stupidity. She was barely breathing by the time I got to the hospital. Why would she do this to herself? She had left me a note, and I did not bother to read it because every second counted. I knew Elisabeth could be irrational, bu
I could not speak after reading her letter; I did not know that was how she saw things. Her mind was twisted. How could she think she would be relieving me of the burden by killing herself? I never denied the baby. I never mistreated her. I had moved on, and I wanted her to do the same. If she hadn'
"Yes, Lisa. If you truly loved me and were not thinking of yourself as always, you would not harm my child, and you will not put me in this situation. This will not get us back together; Lisa, it will just make me mad. I have bigger issues. There are people out to get me. I would have died a few day
Tia. The moment I checked into a room in the Leaf hotel, I exhaled. I did not know I was holding my breath until I exhaled, and along with it came my silent tears. I sat with my back against the door, weeping. Why did it hurt so much? I said I will keep my guard up; I promised myself I would not be
"Tia, please. I do not love her; I wasn't ..." he said and paused. His voice was shaking. "Where are you?" I know you are not with your parents. I called your mother, and she said you are not home. Please, Tia, where are you? Let me come there and explain myself. Please don't do this to us, Tia," h
Grand aunty Ummul passed away a year ago, and we still miss her, especially Emma and Chloe. We had learned sign language because of her. We did not mourn too much because we knew she had gone to rest. Luke was glad we could care for her a little longer before she died. Aunty Amira was married with c
"You missed breakfast," Luke said, and she looked away. I noticed a hickey on her neck. She saw that I noticed and tried to cover it. "Come on, Luke, Aunty Amirah can come for breakfast whenever," I told him, and she smiled at me. Not wanting him to say anything else, I urged him to move on. "I ho
Tia SIX MONTHS LATER Luke and I woke up late, so we had to rush to prepare for breakfast. Chloe and James were peaceful babies, and even though they had nannies, we checked on them at night to ensure they were alright. They were a blessing. Paul was growing well too. Doctor Khalifa had said his he
"Stacy.." he managed with his deep voice., but it sounded weak and defeated. I looked up gradually, and his eyes were filled with tears. "I am sorry, Stacy. I was mean to you. I should have made more effort. I should have loved you harder. I take all the blame," he said, and I shook my head and sto
Stacy. I spent three months missing Aesop. It was hard. Sometimes I wished I didn't leave, but I needed time alone. All my life, I had been in someone's shadow. First, it was my parents, then Regan and then Aesop. I never had the time to discover myself and learn my weaknesses and strengths. I neve
"Every time you feel a contraction, I want you to push," She said, and I nodded. The first contraction came, and I pushed as instructed. ONE HOUR LATER I had delivered twins. A boy and a girl and the nurses had taken them to clean them up. I was anxious to see them. They had wheeled me back to the
"I know you didn't think your exit would affect him much, but it did. When he said he loved you, he meant it. When you were poisoned, he never left the hospital until the day he brought you home. He remained by your side. When he pushed you out of his room, he gave them an order at the gate not to l
"No, Luke. Let me see her first, then I will call you to bring him," I said and took out my phone to text him the address. "I am sending you her address right now," I said, and he looked a bit worried. "What is the matter, darling?" I asked him, and he sighed. "You are almost due, Tia. I would no
"Have you been able to reach Stacy?" He asked me, and I shook my head. I knew it wouldn't be easy since Caleb her son, had been unable to reach her. He travelled to Dome two months ago when she opened the foundation, and he did not meet her. She had been M.I.A. since then. It was as if she deliberat
