Hello, lovely readers. I went to a function today, so I could not edit two chapters. Be assured I will upload the second chapter in the morning. I did not want to leave you without anything to read tonight, so I uploaded this chapter. I am sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you all for your support and understanding. I read and liked all your comments. You all have kept the fire alive. Thank you for supporting this book.!!
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
Luke. The day of reckoning was finally upon us. I had knots in my stomach even though I wasn't the one fighting Regan. I had a foreboding that things might not go as planned, and I planned not to be overconfident, because arrogance always brings failure. Not wanting to underestimate Regan, I decide
We finally arrived at the venue. Mike parked, and we moved toward the grounds. The crowd was few, barely fifty people, and no one looked like a military officer, which was good because some of them were our people. A man that looked like Regan was already standing in the centre shirtless. He had no
My father got up, whimpering to approach Regan when we heard a gunshot and people began to run. Heavily armed men came at us. The helicopter was shot down by a missile to stop the broadcast, and I knew they were not our men. We shifted to protect ourselves because they were coming our way. The chao
Luke. Tired and just pushing, my legs were about to give out when I heard loud voices and gunshots. The attackers sounded like women, and I dared to look in the direction they were coming from. The number was incredible, and they were shooting at the markless wolves with extreme vengeance. Another
"I am sorry, I couldn't stay at home, Luke. I am so sorry," she pleaded, but she had nothing to be sorry about. "I am glad you disobeyed me, Tia. You and Stacy. Thank you so much. I thought I would never see you again. I thought today would be it, and then you came," I said with tears clouding my v
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
