ALESSANDRO'S POV...

'I was the one who planned it all.'

That line got stuck in my head. Made me freeze and my world turned upside down as I sat there dumbfounded.

Everything turned silent only that one line. I lost myself for some time.

"What did you say?" I heard Victoria's low tone. Her hand in mine is stiff, as well as mine. My breath is turning shallow.

Aunt Giana looked up at us and cried. She cried hard. Crying for what? For her daughter while sitting here and telling us that she killed our first born who couldn't even be born?

Suddenly, I felt a heavy lump of anger in my throat. All my veins are throbbing.

"I am sorry. I..." She parted her lips but I had enough!

"Shut up! Shut the fuck up!" I gulped my inner urge to kill her, shaking in anger.

"How dare you!?" I roared, not caring anything at all.

She looked horrified, sitting at the opposite. "Aless, I..." She tried to speak and I don't know what came over me. I just lost it.

The next thing I knew I was strangling h

    Two days later, VICTORIA'S POV... I walked out of the police station, holding Leo in my arms. Was going back from the hospital after our regular checkups and stopped the car in front of NYC's huge police station. The place was child friendly, so I went inside with my baby if there is any news of Lisa. It's been two days but there is no news about her. Police are trying their best and Dominic is also kept under sharp gazes to follow him. However, no clue could be found. Police are also confused. They are trying their best. I just hope, wherever Lisa is, she is fine. Giana is broken almost after losing her daughter. She is also under check. Her punishment is unforgivable but I decided to proceed with my complain against her after Lisa is back. When I came out, the driver opened the door for me and I settled in my seat. Today, I brought Mama's driver. Sage is keeping his eyes always on Dominic, so I did not disturb him. As I settled, the driver started the car. After we cale out

    ALESSANDRO'S POV... I looked at my wristwatch sitting in the meeting. Currently working in my own business, I have grown up for years besides Reywalt. My mind is at home to Victoria and our son. She went to the hospital for their regular checkups. But... I don't know, for some reason, my mind is restless. I couldn't put my concentrate on the meeting. Suddenly, "Mr Devonte, is anything wrong?" My new assistant, Brad asked and the employees that were pitching to me stopped. I turned to them and sighed inwardly. This is going to affect my work. "Guys, let's take a little break. we will continue this meeting the next day." All of them nodded and left. I leaned back in my seat and picked up my phone to call Victoria. Her phone rang but, she is not receiving it at all. I frowned. Why is she not picking up the call? Is she busy? Or... I shook my head and called the driver she took today. But... His phone is also ringing yet no one's picking up! Fuck! I immediately stood up and walked

    ALESSANDRO'S POV... I watched her sleeping in the white hospital bed, with her brows furrowed deeply and black hair scattered on the white pillow. As if even in a deep sleep she is worrying for her child. Victoria... She almost lost her mind after losing our baby son. She kept blaming herself and crying madly. No one was able to control her and she kept fainting. We had to transfer her to the hospital and now, she is sleeping with a heavy dose. Doctor said, she needs sleep and her mind needs to calm down before it's too late to have a mind stroke. It's fucking hard for me to see my wife in this condition and the shock of Leo's kidnapping. At this point, I also want to lose my consciousness but I can't. I need to be strong and find my son and give him back to his mother. I have to. There is no option left for me. The deadliest fear is, Leo is only two months old and he needs to be breastfed from time to time and of course, he needs his mother's touch. I never thought at the end

    ALESSANDRO'S POV... I felt a sharp pain in my head as if it would just slit my head in two. My eyelids felt heavy while trying to move, but still, I tried my best. My gaze was welcomed by the dizzy light of fire right away. My vision was blurry. I wanted to rub my eyes but... I couldn't move my hands! I can feel them then... Suddenly, it hit me, my hands are tied up! I shook my head and opened my eyes again. Slowly, things turned clear before my eyes and there he is! My son! Still in the middle of the fire circle! Now, he is lying with his eyes closed without any clothes on him! I struggled hard to move from the chair that I was tied with, but I couldn't. I wanted to cry at this point! But, it's not time to cry. I have promised Victoria that I would free our son and I will keep my promise at any cost! If that means, I need to give up on my life, I would do it! anything for my family! I tried hard to free my hands and some places were even bleeding, but still, I didn't care! Howev

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    Didn't she tell you her story?

    ALESSANDRO'S POV... I stared at Dominic. Speechless is an understatement at this moment. Horrifying and traumatic would be more suitable in my situation. "Son? Twin? What are you saying, Dominic?" I asked him in a daze. Everything is feeling way too much for me to digest. Dominic nodded. "Yeah, he..." "He is your brother, Aless. Dominic is right." I heard her voice. When I turned to see her, I felt a strange nauseous in my stomach. She feels so dangerous at this point. "Calvin and you were born at the same time. Fortunately, you don't look alike. I kept Calvin away from the family and raised him in my way. And I am glad I did that, otherwise, he would turn as useless as you two. Now, my son has turned my right hand and an obedient one." She smiled at us like a proud mother. After she finished speaking, the door of the secret passage opened and Calvin walked inside, dragging someone with him. It's a girl... No! Not just a girl but "Lisa!" I gasped aloud. "Aless!" Lisa cried. Sh

    ALESSANDRO'S POV... While struggling and shouting, I helplessly watched her pick up my sleeping son with her both hands and hold him in the air. Her eyes were closed and she kept chanting something. Suddenly, a thunder sound came and the ceiling parted away, opening the gloomy night sky. I looked up and fuck! The moon! It's red as if it has burned in a fire! "Stop this Carmella, I am begging you! Stop hurting my son! Let him go, please!" I kept on shouting. She did not even bother at my words as if she can't hear me. I watched her put down on the marked place and she picked up something from her left side that was out of my vision. When she removed the cover from that thing, I gasped. It's a knife! No! Please God, please help my son! Please save him! Please... I cried, couldn't help my tears while seeing my son in this situation, feeling extremely helpless. Just when it felt like everything is gonna end, the door of the passage opened. No, it did not open but broke. The knife

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    Love is the only magic...

    VICTORIA'S POV... I sat at the edge of the bed as I watched Aless removing his clothes. We just returned from Dominic's funeral. It still was like a nightmare for me to recall the yesterday night. Everything was almost ending but it turned upside down with one brave move of Sage. When he accompanied Aless to Carmella's House, he lost track of the guards and Aless both. Even the house vanished from his sight. Sage was confused and scared. He did not waste his time and rushed back to the hospital. I was awake by the time and when he described all of it to me from the beginning, I was sure that the dark witch was none other than Carmella. Alessandro's deceased mother who was alive actually. I left the hospital forthwith and explained everything to Surgeon Ronald. Because at this time, he is the one who could help me. Then he summoned Raeven and the rest we all know. We rescued Lisa and brought her back to her mother that night. Giana was happy and guilty both. As I have said, she c

    Two Months Later... VICTORIA'S POV... "Rise and Shine, sweetheart." Aless rolled beside me and kissed my lips. I stretched my hands and turned to him with a smile on my face. It's been a long time since I am seeing Aless refreshed. Two months have passed away and our lives coming on the track. Everything is just settling into Its place. Two months ago, Adv. Davis has given Dominic's will to Aless. Even though we were shocked by the fact, we accepted it and with time, we stopped thinking too much about the reason. We have accepted the fact that we would never learn the reason for his sudden change in will. And honestly, it's hard to understand Dominic's thoughts. Aless has accepted and he is once again the owner of Reywalt and other properties. However, meanwhile, he chose to transfer fifteen per cent of his share to Lisa, including the old mansion where They all grew up. Lisa is better now. She has overcome her traumas and even talked to her mother. She absolutely hated when sh

    LILY... "He has been stabbed over 15 times. The killer might hate him so much. His neighbour felt something was wrong and went to check. Sigh... The poor woman must be in trauma after the scene." Max said. "Umm... Anything else?" I asked, Sitting in the opposite of his desk. "I mean, who could be the killer? Any hint?" Max shook his head. "Not yet." He looked around before lowering his tone, "And you must not be too curious about this matter. He was involved in the politician murder case and now this happened. It's dangerous, Lily." Closing my notebook, I chuckled. "Are you seeing me after danger the first time?" He sighed, narrowing his eyes, "Better my name is not connected to this case. Inspector Brian was my senior and this is morally a crime for me to share any inside news with you. But..." He let out a helpless huff. "What could I do? You're a friend I couldn't deny." "You're an amazing friend both personally and professionally." I stood up. "I'll leave now." "Hmm, don't

    LILY... I yawned, stretching my hands and fluttered my eyes open. The narrow ray of light was entering through the little window of my room. I smiled. It's a good and very free morning of my life. I couldn't help the grin broke on my lips... So refreshing to think that I kicked out a huge toxicity of my life! Sooo Good! Fluttering my eyes again, I looked at the small window. But, why does it feel so close this morning? I mean, sleeping on the couch, this window is a bit away from me, isn't it? Or, was I wrong? As if to answer my question, something firm wrapped around my waist, making me confused as well as alert... "Good Morning..." A deep husky tone muttered beside my ear. Fuck! I immediately jumped out of bed only to fall on my butt "AaGh!" I cried out and looked at the intruder only to gasp in agony, "Leo!" His bluish-green gaze was on me, frowning. "What stunt are you playing this morning?" He asked in a groggy voice, turning me dumbfounded. "I am playing!?" I barked at h

    LEO... I woke up in the late afternoon. Couldn't sleep the entire night thinking about the ridiculous shit I did in the club. I fucking kissed her! Her soft lips felt like cotton candy, and her soft berry scent was delicious... Since the day I met her, I wanted to kiss her and finally, I did, but... Now I want more even though it happened at a crucial moment, I couldn't stop thinking the feeling of her! That woman was insanely climbing all over my thoughts! After that kissing incident, I kept myself shut to not do something more crazy. Though I don't know how long I could maintain this peace. Every time I think of her, my imagination runs wild and the effect is clear under my trousers! Sigh... Sitting on the bed, I looked around. Lily was nowhere to be seen. Wait... Where is she? It's Sunday today and she's still out for work? Such a pathetic life of a reporter! That woman really does not care about her safety, does she? What if she faces sort of the same troubles? I'm not beside

    LILY... Not even three days passed and on the fourth day, I was standing right in front of the hell. I swore to not appear here after that insult but here I am, again I am here because Mom called me this morning. At the age of Fifteen, I left this mansion. It's been over nine years since she called me. I know I shouldn't after that night but I couldn't deny her because of the promise I made to Theo. If it wasn't for Grandma, I wouldn't bother to show up here ever. Taking a deep breath I stepped inside. Surprisingly, no one stopped me and I went to the hall. Alyssa, Ruby and Dad were Sitting there. The environment was gloomy. Something definitely happened here. "You called me?" I directly asked Ruby. For some reason, my usual fear wasn't working anymore. Probably because Grandma's safety was managed. She looked up at me. Her cold eyes were sending chills at my way. Beside her, Alyssa was leaning on her shoulder with her bloodshot eyes. "How dare you get in here!?" She roared at m

    LILY... Lord! I messed up! What to do now!? It's not my first time doing such a thing, yet I am frozen here. And before I realised, I was pulled back hastily as Leo covered the crack. "W-we need to leave," I muttered before opening the storeroom door to leave but paused at the sight of those men. Shit! They smelled us here! Immediately closing the door, I backed up. Hope they don't enter here. "What the fuck!? Are you always this clumsy!?" Leo hissed. "Who gave you the access to become a crime reporter!?" I was already annoyed and his taunts were worsening it. However, my annoyance died inside when footsteps neared the store room. Shadows of suspicious footsteps were just outside the door. I backed away, hitting my back at Leo's chest. I could feel his rigid figure. The knob of the door twisted and my heartbeat stopped for a moment. Suddenly, Leo grabbed me by the waist, pushing me on something hard and his lips followed mine next, stiffing me on the place. In the next second th

    LILY... Sigh... I stood helplessly in the phone booth, begging that annoyed specimen to bring my phone. Could my day be any worse than this? "Please, Leo. I need my phone now." I pleaded again. "You're asking a sick man, who is almost bedded because of you, to bring your phone to you because You're careless? Hmm, interesting..." His reply came from the other side. "What if I decline?" "No, please! I beg you! I need my phone, Leo. It's important, please!" I said, defeated. No more stingy with my pleas. "Ah, I don't want to... But, I guess, I will consider you this time only..." He paused and I was eager, "Only what?" I urged impatiently. "Only if you make breakfast for me every morning and don't nag me sleeping on your bed." "....." I could definitely feel a smirk on his face even on the phone. This fucking arshole! "Leo, don't you think it's too much?" I gritted my teeth. "Is it?" He asked as if there was no one innocent than him! "Alright then, help yourself." "No, wait!" I

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 20

    LILY... Rushing out for evidence at any hour was a part of my job. I accepted it as a part of my life because once I dreamt of becoming a crime reporter, I knew every day would be a new challenge for me. When Grandma used to live with me, she used to nag always for my safety and I used to kiss her cheeks and rush out with a smile. Since she was admitted to the hospital, no one did her part for me. Tonight was the same or it could be, if Leo didn't show concern for me before I left the house. Though I was indifferent at that moment my heart convulsed with a warm feeling I had never tasted for more than a year. He was a stranger who somewhat forced into my life. A bit annoying but harmless. As a woman, staying with him under the same roof didn't give me insecurity. Though I would never admit this in front of him, I could not deny the fact either. I don't know who he is, where he came from or what happened to him. But Leo is a gentleman. A woman's instinct could never fail when it's

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 19.

    LEO... Is it even a time to go out? Didn't she remember what happened this evening? Fuck! I scratched my neck, feeling disturbed. Kept watching time again and again. It's almost Midnight and that woman is out of home! Does she even care for her security for once? I am stressed! More because I am worried about her when I shouldn't be! I mean, she is practically a stranger, but still, I am drawn to her. What happened this evening was proof. I have no memory, no particular known situation nor I am aware of my skills. I should have stayed away from those men and the most I could do was run away with her when she proposed. But, I didn't. My blood boiled when I saw the fear and helplessness in her eyes. It felt like I could rip the world apart who dared to hurt her. Those hazel eyes were pleading for salvation. In that moment something stirred in me and I wanted to keep her safe. I don't know if those guys were her enemy or some random teasers. Whoever they were, they shouldn't cross m
