"I doubt he will want to attack where people will anticipate it. The current Alpha of Neeve just called to find out if we will be coming there with backup. I told him, no, and he tried to ask for arms to protect his residents. There is no way Regan does not know they don't trust him in Neeve, and kn
" Tia," I breathed her name, and she hugged me tightly and began to sob. "I really wanted to come with you, Luke. I wanted to be there. I wanted to have your back and carry you if need be. " she said, and I wrapped my arms around her and kissed the top of her head. "You have done that every day si
Tia. We watched the helicopter lift into the air and leave. Kimberly had tears in her eyes, but I wasn't going to shed a tear. I knew they would be returning home, I was going to make sure of it. The moment the Helicopter was out of sight, we went back into the building. "So what will we do now? "
"You bitch. If I catch you," he said, and I shut him up. "I never said we did anything to it, but I know who did, and I have proof. In exchange, you have to help us bring Regan down because I know you are on our Island as we speak," I said, and he was silent. "I am sending you some documents and v
We stayed for a while in the office, and when the women had finally gathered in the base, Stacy and I went to address them. When we got to the base, I noticed they all looked excited. They were just as eager as I was to show off their skills. This will be their first true mission and their first ba
Aesop. We arrived at Neev within an hour. Mike was good with the helicopter, and I figured he might have been the one flying Luke and Caleb about the place. I was not looking forward to revisiting Neev. That was where I lost my Chloe. That was where my life took a turn for the worst. I have had swe
We walked into the hotel, and just as usual, it was flooded with pretty women from Dome. Looking at them, all I could think of was Regan. There was a possibility they were his girls. I would not be surprised. The bastard was sick; the fact that he would pimp his wife, whom he loved and was jealous a
Luke and I freshened up and decided to pay Ummul a visit. Caleb wanted to come, so I decided we could all go. Mike was there when Ummul said her truth, and Kirk could not be left alone in the hotel, especially with how he looked at the girls; it was only fair we do this together. The cottage was ti
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
