Entwined With Karma SUPPORT
The silence of the living room was shattered by Kendall's phone ringing. Looking at the screen, she noticed Alicia's name shining. She felt a wave of relief when she saw her best friend's name, bringing comfort amidst her turmoil. She responded by swiping, feeling a slight relief as she recognized Alicia's voice on the phone. “Alicia! Kendall expressed her relief and weariness, which she was unable to completely hide, when she said, "I'm glad to hear from you." Alicia's soothing voice was like a warm and comforting balm on a stressful day. Hello, Kendall! Lately, you've been on my mind a lot. How are you managing? I acknowledge that you have been experiencing a difficult period. Kendall let out a deep sigh, trying to manage her feelings. I'm thrilled that you chose to reach out to me by phone. I have several pieces of information to share with you - some are positive while others are negative. It's truly been a crazy adventure, I must say. I was uncertain about where to find assi

Kendall and Jason strolled together towards the art gallery, relishing the invigorating cool autumn breeze while holding hands. The city streets were painted in a golden glow by the setting sun, showcasing the vibrant autumn leaves. Kendall sneaked a peek at Jason, feeling a blend of curiosity and anxiety in her heart. Since Jason's sudden change in behavior, every interaction with him seemed like a fresh installment in their intricate narrative.As they neared the massive entrance of the museum, its grand columns and detailed exterior towering above them, Jason gazed at Kendall with a gentle, almost soothing grin. "I believed spending the day here would be pleasant," he remarked softly. "I understand that things have been difficult recently, so I wanted to try out something new, something that could provide us with a brief break from everything."Kendall was shocked, her eyes widening in surprise. "An art gallery?" "Do you mean a location to showcase historical objects and artistic p

Kendall awoke to the soft, insistent voice of the maid through the door. “Miss Kendall, breakfast is ready. Sir Jason would like to have breakfast with you.”Still enveloped in the comfort of the early hours, Kendall extended her body and rose from bed, her thoughts already returning to the enjoyable moments from the museum the day before. She descended with light, eager steps. The table is filled with different types of fresh berries, sliced oranges, and apples were neatly organized on plates together with whole-grain toast and avocado. Additional choices consisted of yogurt parfaits featuring granola and a selection of nuts, all customized to align with her nutritional requirements.Jason was already sitting at the table in a relaxed manner, holding a newspaper. Upon Kendall's arrival, he looked up and a warm smile spread across his face. "Good morning, Kendall," he warmly greeted with sincerity in his voice.Kendall returned the smile, yet her eyes betrayed a touch of anxiety. “G
Last Updated : 2024-09-17Entwined With Karma AN EVENING OF ELEGANCE
Kendall admired the gorgeous midnight-blue gown that hung so gracefully over her body as she stood in front of the mirror. The soft sheen of the material highlighted her lovely features and curves. Her face was framed by the sweetheart neckline, and the gown's short train gave it a sophisticated touch. She put on the delicate necklace and matching earrings with care, their sparkle perfectly completing the outfit. Despite their elegant appearance, the heels were manageably comfortable, enabling her to move with ease. As Kendall stroked her fingertips over the material, she had a mixture of anxiety and excitement. She inhaled deeply before beginning her journey down the grand staircase. Her shoes clicking on the marble steps resonated down the hall. When she got to the bottom, she saw Jason standing near the door with his back to her. There was a tangible sense of expectation. When Jason turned around, his reaction was immediate and expressive. His mouth dropped open when he noti

The atmosphere was light and cozy, with lots of conversation on the trip home from the restaurant. The gentle hum of the car's engine blended with the talk between Jason and Kendall. Their faces were softly glowing as the city lights poured by. With every word Kendall said, Jason's curiosity about her grew. He cast a quick glance at her. "I had no idea you were so passionate about art," he said, his eyes showing real curiosity. "It's obvious that it resonates deeply with you." With a little giggle, Kendall's eyes glistened with anticipation. It's something I've cherished forever. The emotions and stories that art can portray are often too strong for words to fully capture. It offers a window into the mind and a glimpse into the world of another person.Jason nodded, clearly intrigued. That fascinates me. You have this really perceptive and novel way of looking at the world. It's among the qualities of you that I now find admirable. As he spoke, Kendall's heart began to race. She fe
Last Updated : 2024-09-18Entwined With Karma MOMENT OF SURRENDER
Jason stood in his dimly lit bedroom, leaning against the cold marble counter, his mind clouded with thoughts of Kendall. He hadn't been able to shake the memory of the one moment when they almost felt real—when their lips met in a kiss that was meant to be nothing but he wanted more. The kiss had been brief, but it stirred something inside him. Contractual was not how her lips had felt on his, nor the unsaid tension that simmered under the surface. He gave a strong breath in an attempt to get rid of the sensation, but it stuck to him like a second skin. The barriers separating them felt impenetrable, but he couldn't deny the pull. It was forbidden to break the terms of the agreement, their arrangement. A knock on the door took his attention away from his thoughts. Jason scowled and retreated from the counter. It was too late for anybody to come over. His eyes grew wide with surprise when he opened the door. Bathed in the warm light of the hallway, Kendall stood there. Her ey

“Make me your woman... Claim me...” Jason didn't let Kendall finish when he latched himself on her, sealing her lips in bouts of hot kisses, and shutting her up in the most sensual way. A prisoner to her desire, she moaned in his mouth, slightly parting her lips for him to devour her as he pleased. His hand held her chin and tilted it upward, keeping the kiss by every slow and alluring inch. “Skies, Kendall, I've waited long and hard for this day.” His breath was warm on her face, with his fingers tracing the smooth line of her delicate features. "Please, let us savor every bit of this moment... No rush.” Swallowing the arousal that she suffered, she nodded, unable to bring herself to speak. Right now, he was her master, and she'd obey his last words. "You're beautiful, Kendall." He mumbled, adjusting so the soft lightning could bathe her face. She blushed, suppressing a smile. Slowly, his hand fell to her bosom, trading a circle around her breasts, one at a time.

Their bedroom's drapes were glowing softly with a golden hue as the sun had just started to rise. Jason had already woken up, his thoughts focused on organizing a surprise. While he was in the kitchen meticulously preparing the breakfast items, his mind kept going back to Kendall, who was still asleep upstairs.A slight smile appeared on his lips as he reminisced about the evening they had spent together, and he sensed a spark of something different - something more tender - starting to develop between them.With a calm resolve, he retrieved her beloved comforts: recently baked croissants, a container of her favorite strawberry jam, and an assortment of ripe fruits - juicy strawberries, blueberries, and some slices of mango.He reached out and took her favorite things. He took his time brewing her favorite mix of coffee, the pleasant scent filling the house as he brewed.He glanced around, searching for the perfect touch to add. His gaze fell upon a tiny vase resting on the ledge, an

Entwined With Karma EPILOGUE
A YEAR LATERJason stood on the soft carpet, lifting Liam in the air, his hearty laughter echoing in the warm room. Liam let out a joyful cry, extending his small hands towards his father's face. "Do you find that amusing, eh?" Jason grinned and delicately lowered Liam, placing a kiss on his round cheek. Kendall lounged on the sofa with her legs tucked beneath her, sipping tea as she observed. Her smile was soft but filled with pride. “He loves when you do that. It’s his favorite game now.” Jason looked over at her, his expression tender. Certainly, it is. "He's already seeking thrills, just like his father." “Thrill-seeker?” Kendall arched her eyebrow, placing her cup onto the coffee table. "Do you actually mean stubborn?" He’s definitely inherited that from you.” Jason chuckled, settling Liam into his lap. “I prefer to think of it as determination.” He leaned forward conspiratorially and whispered to Liam, “Don’t let your mom fool you. You get that charm from me too.” Liam
Entwined With Karma TRUTHS UNRAVEL
Kendall sensed her muscles were sore and smelled antiseptic about her. A faint discomfort in her stomach was a reminder of the procedures she had undergone. The warm, subdued light of the setting sun illuminated the room, but her vision was cloudy and her thoughts was foggy.A well-known voice called out Kendall's name, filled with relief and a touch of remorse. She blinked, forcing her eyes to focus. Jason was next to her, his usual sharp attitude mellowed by tiredness. His shirt looked wrinkled, his tie was untied, and his face showed signs of countless restless nights. "Jason?" she rasped, her parched throat feeling rough. “What… where am I?” He gently informed her that she was in the hospital, moving closer in the process. You underwent a cesarean section, and the physicians performed surgery for your cervical cancer. You’ve been unconscious for days.” His concerned was evident in the wavering of his voice. She instinctively reached towards her stomach, but he intercepted her
Entwined With Karma FIGHTING FOR LIFE
Jason walked back and forth in the clean waiting room of the hospital, his hands tightly clenched by his sides. The remote sound of machines beeping, the soft whispers of doctors in the corridor, and the tap of shoes against the linoleum surface felt excessively clear and intense. The rhythm of his own heart drowned out his thinking.“Why? Why did she wait to tell me?”His thoughts continued to rush, but it was futile. The doctors had rushed Kendall into surgery, explaining everything so quickly that their words became a blur. Cervical cancer. Emergency cesarean. Save both her and the baby. Jason wanted to scream, to tear at something, but instead, he stood frozen, his gaze fixed on the closed doors where Kendall had been taken. He had failed her. How could he not have seen that? For weeks and months on end, he failed to realize that something was amiss. His thoughts constantly went back to their disputes, to the times when she appeared delicate yet remained silent. “Mr. Carter?”J
Entwined With Karma UNSEEN TRUTH
Kendall stood on Jason's mansion doorstep, holding her coat tightly as her hands shook. The chill of the evening air nipped at her skin, yet it paled in comparison to the frostiness within her. She had to do this. There wasn't any alternative available. Jason had an unreadable expression on his face when the door opened, his eyes looking at her as if she was unfamiliar."Jason..." she said with a voice that cracked, her eyes begging for empathy. He stood silently, observing her, not responding right away, as though anticipating her to say something."I have to speak with you," Kendall murmured, moving closer, feeling her legs wobble beneath her. Jason moved out of the way, allowing her to enter silently, but he still stood rigidly, as if ready for combat. The door closed with a click.Kendall stopped in the foyer, trying to regain her balance. She momentarily lost focus, but quickly blinked to clear her vision. "Jason, I have been foolish," she started softly, her voice now filled
Entwined With Karma EXPOSED AND EXILED
Isabella stood at the entrance to Thane's estate, holding her luggage tightly, afraid she might drop it. The large house stood in front of her, its impressive exterior highlighting the void she felt within. She had no other place to go, but she was determined not to give up. Not now. Not after everything.With fingers trembling, she pressed the doorbell, fighting to stay standing despite her overwhelming desperation. Before too much time had passed, the door swung open and Thane appeared, his expression devoid of any warmth. He hesitated before inviting her in, staring at her for a moment too long. Isabella swallowed, attempting to maintain her composure. "I—Thane," she began, her voice faltering, "I—I don’t know where else to go. Jason... he left me. He—he doesn’t care about me. "I have no one else to go to but you." She began to cry as her voice broke, allowing the tears to fill her eyes. She wished they appeared authentic; she wished he would trust her. Thane didn’t budge. His
Entwined With Karma THE RESULTS ARE IN
Jason sat at his desk, gazing at the mountains of paperwork that had grown over the previous few days. The workstation was buzzing with activity, from phone calls to hushed chats, yet he remained calm and composed. His mind was elsewhere—on her. On Kendall."Mr. Carter?" A voice snapped him out of his thoughts.Jason looked over and saw Jane, his assistant, standing at the doorway with a pile of papers. She paused, observing the absent-minded expression in his eyes. She mentioned that you requested to be informed once the DNA test results are received. Jason’s pulse quickened. He stood up, walking briskly toward her. "Hand them over to me." Passing him the envelope, he impatiently tore it open. As he opened the papers, his heart raced while he quickly looked over the results. He breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the confirmation that Isabella is not expecting. "He whispered, relieved as the tension he had been holding onto for days finally lifted." However, the feeling of reli
Entwined With Karma THE FINAL STRAW
Tension grew in his jaw as he tightly gripped the doorframe with his hand. "Why on earth are you here?" Isabella stood at the entrance, her lips curling into a smug grin. She entered with a sense of ownership, her heels making a sharp clicking noise on the tiled floor. Jason remained still, obstructing her way deeper into the house. "Wow, that's not a very hospitable greeting," she remarked, but still pushed past him. "Is that how you say hello to the mother of your soon-to-be-born baby?" Jason's expression turned menacing, his hands tightening at his sides. “Cut the act, Isabella. What do you want?” "Regarding what is owed to me," she answered calmly, pivoting to confront him with a self-assured lift of her chin. With Kendall conveniently gone, I am ready to take my rightful position. For our child’s sake, of course.” He let out a cold, humorless laugh, his eyes narrowing. “Rightful place? You mean as a liar and manipulator? Spare me your theatrics.” Her smile faltered brief
Entwined With Karma THE VOID BETWEEN US
Jason was positioned at the top of the lengthy meeting table, sitting with perfect posture in his crisp suit, though his thoughts were elsewhere. The board members' voices became a blur as he focused on the charts and projections on the screen. Jason’s gaze lingered on his tablet, his jaw tight. “Mr. Carter, do you agree?” His head snapped up, piercing eyes scanning the room. A beat passed as he composed himself, erasing any trace of distraction. “Yes,” he replied curtly, his voice steady, though he had no idea what they had asked. “Proceed as outlined.” An approving murmur spread through the room, but Jason paid little attention. He couldn't stop thinking about Kendall, remembering her tearful face and the vulnerability in her voice when she said his name. He moved around in his chair, tightening his jaw. “Concentrate, for crying out loud. This isn’t the time to be weak.” But no matter how much he willed himself to concentrate, the image lingered, seared into his thoughts. "
Entwined With Karma FRACTURED BOND
Jason was in his study with a half-empty decanter of whiskey providing him with some bitter comfort on the table. Thane's words echoed in his mind like a disturbing tune, preventing him from finding peace. His teeth gritted and his hand gripped the crystal glass tightly, causing the liquid inside to shake. He whispered to himself, pondering, his tone a mix of anger and hopelessness. "What happens if the child is not mine?" His mother's unwavering belief in him reverberated in his thoughts, her defense against his father and Thane's relentless pressure lingering in his memory. Catherine Carter always saw the best in Jason, even when he couldn't see it himself. But was he worthy of that faith now? He finished the remaining drink, the sensation of burning in his throat a harsh diversion from the pain in his chest. Kendall's tear-streaked face and trembling voice, pleading for his understanding, came back to his memory once more, but he couldn't find the empathy. Jason slammed the g
