Sarah had been very busy making arrangements for the wedding, and her mother made sure that everything was in place. Everything was perfect until she realised that she had one more job to do.

After a long drive, almost at the outskirts of Los Angeles, she walked into a dark underground building and stood there for a while. A man walked out of a room with a stick of cigarettes in his hands.

Sarah smirked, and she laughed at the same time. “Long time no see, black wolf."

“Sarah, it's been a long time. I have been seeing you all over the blogs. You are indeed a smart woman. That's the goal,” he said, dragging his cigarette.

Sarah giggled and gave him a tight hug. “It's been a while. I've got a job for you,” she whispered in his ears. She pulled away, and they both walked into the dark underground with so many bodyguards guarding the place and tonnes of ammunition arranged on the wall.

Sarah looked around, scanning the whole room, and smiling. It's been a long time since she visited he

She wanted to know what it was that was making Sarah happy.

She operated it from her mobile phone to listen to Sarah’s recordings for the day, but she discovered nothing. It turned out that the recorder was blank.She narrowed her eyes and decided to try the recorder in Sarah’s room, and it was still blank. She wondered if it was the signal.

She hurried into her room and paced around. “What could be the problem?” “Did Sarah discover the recor

    Sarah’s POV:“The target is out of the mansion."I sat on the bed after having dinner. I was sipping non-alcoholic wine. I let out a satisfied sigh and sat on my bed. I knew the black wolf was already on the lookout for Marina. She had been acting nervous since she discovered that I found out about the recorder.She is going to find out about it tomorrow. She won't live to testify. Just when I was lost in thought, my phone buzzed. “We found her,” it read.It was a message from a black wolf. I met out with a sly and calculating smile. “Good work.

With time, I will get Nicklaus to love me, and he would not be able to do without me.****The next morning, I woke up feeling happy and a little tired.

    Elena’s POV:I woke up very early in the morning because of my constant nightmares. My mind still replayed the nightmares in my head.For two days now I have been contemplating whether to open up and tell Nicklaus about my pregnancy since he is the father of my baby. He abandoned me without thinking twice about it. He signed the divorce papers and forced me to sign them.I lay on the bed and tossed around. I lay on my back and stared at the ceiling. I thought about the whole thing. I wanted to keep this pregnancy a secret because I did not want anything to hinder my plans. I had been planning to go far away and start my life. To have a fresh start. Away from everybody, but I didn't even know where to start, but the idea of going away and starting over again had been my dream.I was happy last night because the waiter released a statement at the court and claimed that the allegations against me that caused my miscarriage were false. This made me a little proud of myself. At least I g

    Elena’s POV:My heart skipped a beat, and my legs became very heavy. “No,” I muttered silently to myself. My mind struggled to process what I had just seen. It felt unbelievable. My breathing increased rapidly, and I could feel my breath cease. Irina caught up with me and stopped in her tracks when she noticed that I had seen it all. She had a long face on, and I could also see tears gathering in her eyes. “Maam,” she called out; her voice was low and filled with worry. I turned around to see a worried look on her face. But I couldn't speak, I couldn't think, and I couldn't respond. All I could think of was turning around and running out of the premises. I didn't stop in my tracks until I was out of the gate. I gasped for air, and my chest was rising and falling. My vision was blurry, and tears filled my eyes. I didn't even know what to do. I stood by the road, stretching my hands to stop a taxi. I didn't know where to go; all I knew was that to get out of the house, out of Nickla

    Sarah’s POV: I walked down the aisle in my beautiful white wedding dress. The stunning lace and crystals glittered in the light. My father held my arms beside him; he was filled with pride as he escorted me to my future husband. I couldn't stop smiling. I was grinning ear to ear, and all eyes were on me. I enjoyed the excitement and joy of the moment. It made me feel like a princess in a fairy tale and the centre of attraction. I love that I was the center of attraction and all eyes were on me and Nicklaus. Everybody admired me as I walked to the alter. The guest stood on their feet. I could see the admiration on their faces. I became the spotlight and had my dream wedding, which made me the talk of the town. Nicklaus was already standing at the altar waiting for me. His charming smile made me fall hard for him. He was dressed in a black suit, which suited him perfectly, and his hair was styled, every strand in place. He looked like a model about to walk down the runway for Vogue

    Nicklaus’s POV:I walked into my room after the wedding dinner, finally able to remove the fake smile on my face. I had been forcing myself to smile all day for my family and friends, but my face fell back to normal when I walked into the room and closed the door. My cheeks were hurting so much from smiling. It is now real. I am now Sarah’s husband.I let out a deep sigh and sat on the couch. I exhaled deeply, with my hand running through my face. I could not believe that Elena was truly out of my life for good and Sarah was now my wife. It feels surreal, like a dream that I had begged myself to wake up from. I thought about how my life changed in the space of just six months. Everything happened so fast. I got married to two women in six months. Not only two different women but two sisters. This is so bad. All because I need an heir just to take over from my father’s companies.I thought about Elena. I thought I loved her enough to stand by her, but I failed her. Now all I have le

    Elena’s POV:It’s been a week since Nicklaus' wedding with my sister, and I have not been myself since then. I thought I had gotten over him and that I would easily move on and forget the pain, but I was mistaken. I hadn't left the house all week; I had not touched my phone; I had not spoken to anyone, not even Alex or Zoey. I was unable to face the outside world. I just wanted to be left alone and have some time to think things through. But this morning, I woke up very early in the morning, and I felt happy that I could get enough sleep all night long, and it gave me a little bit of relief.I looked around and decided to do something different, to take control of my life again. I rolled out of bed and walked to my closet. I arranged my clothes, folding and packing them in my box, and signed deeply, trying to let go of the past and start living again. Just then, there was a knock on the door, and it was swung open. Alex was standing in the doorway and walked inside the room. “Elen

I could tell she didn't believe me.She walked up to me and said, “I know it is not easy for you because you are starting life from the start, but I want you to know that your happiness lies with this decision and you will find your strength again.

    Elena’s POV:I knew that I could keep concealing the truth fromNicklaus. It had already been confirmed. Nicklaus had the right to know. This is the best time to let him know. Tears rolled down my eyes, and I was not able to control them. "Yes, Nicklaus, Jason is your son,” I confessed, my voice cracking hard. Nicklaus was stunned, and he looked at me deeply in the eyes. “Why? Why did you keep it away from me? After all these years,” he asked, tears streaming down his face. I crossed my arms across my chest and sniffed, “Well, yes. I had to protect my son. I had to protect you from people like Sarah. You abandoned me. What would you have me for Nicklaus?” I spoke as he continued to sob.Tears rolled Nicklaus’s eyes, and he became emotional. He quickly found a spot to sit in so that he would catch his breath.“I had the right to know about it, Elena. Why did you keep such from me?” he asked.“I...” I began to stutter.

    Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was

    I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly.

You have to play your own part,” Nicklaus spoke.She walked up to me and gave me a daring look. “You are a scumbag,” she spoke and turned to Nicklaus. “I will make sure you pay for it,” she warned and walked out of the room.“I have to go be with my dad right now.
