FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON STAY WITH ME
Sylvia grabbed two jars of freshly baked cookies and strode to the dining.Shane dropped the coffee mugs and left to get the rest of the breakfast. Sylvia was about to head back to the kitchen when she saw Leonard descending the stairs with a tight gaze. She bowed and when she stared in the opposite direction, she saw Fred heading toward the dining.She quickly left the scene.A few minutes later, Sylvia arrived with the fruit basket. Fred and Leonard were settled while Shane was doling the cookies on the platters before them.Sylvia realized that David was absent. He had always been the first to turn up at the table and was also the first to get up because he was always in a hurry to hit the office. She needed no one to inform her that his mother’s visit had messed up his mood that morning.She made her way to the table with a silent sigh and dropped the basket.“Did you speak to him?” Sylvia heard Leonard ask.Fred propelled his platter toward him. “He claims to be fine but I don’t
FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON TRAILING CATHRINA
Fred exhaled and moved to a corner adjacent to the door. Right now, he needed to get his eyes on June not have a pep talk with Eleanor but perhaps, a two minutes talk might suffice.Eleanor joined him at the corner looking all nervous and Fred was surprised. A woman who had boldly stripped before a stranger should not be having sweat teamed up on her forehead because she wanted to speak. He watched her take deep breaths and then try to fix her gaze on him. Eleanor cleared her throat loudly and began. “I want to apologize to you.”Fred had to arch a brow to communicate how stunned he was.She smiled weakly.He sighed in relief. Well, thank goodness she was back to her senses. She must have realized that they won’t work.“I don’t want you to see me that way….“I don’t see you in any way.” Fred sharply replied. What was she thinking? Did she think he was going to judge her by one act of mischief?“I understand where you are coming from Eleanor. It’s just that you took the wrong approac

David was going through some papers inside his room when he heard the door to the entrance of his chamber squeaking. He shut the file to pay keen attention. He could hear the door slowly opening.David wasn’t fond of shutting his door. Unlike his father who had guards stationed at the entrance to his chamber, David would only lock his chamber from the inside when he wanted to fall asleep. He felt sick of people blocking his paths at home or the office.He heard footsteps clicking toward his bedroom and David quickly stood up. He was confident that it was June because at dinner earlier, they had avoided each other and had barely spoken for l the last two days. On his part, David felt at peace with the silence which was quite unexpected.He decided that when she steps in, he was going to tender an apology and that was it.He stood up and was about to reach for the door handle granting entrance to his bedroom when it was pushed open from the other side.David was stunned when Shane walke
FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON DAVID’s IDENTITY
In her bid to eavesdrop on the ongoing conversation between Cathrina and the strange man who had just pulled his Lexus opposite her car, Sylvia slowly rose to her feet with the Rolls-Royce shielding her. From her spot, she could catch a clear glimpse of Catharina’s back but the man remained hidden from her.Sylvia heaved a silent sigh and resolved to pay keen attention to their conversation.“You wanted to return there?” Sylvia heard the man’s deep voice. She could depict that he was an elderly man.Cathrina folded her arms across her chest. “Of course, I would have gone back to that mansion if you didn’t call me.”Sylvia’s eyes widened and the realization that Cathrina had to turn around because she got the man’s call dawned on her. That explains why she didn’t drive into the mansion. From her hidden spot, Sylvia glued her hands on the car, using it as a shield while her bag pack remained on the floor. She stood firm.“What’s the matter with you Cathrina?”Cathrina slapped her th

David couldn’t hold back his wild thoughts. He tried to fall asleep but couldn’t. Soon, he found himself slipping his feet into his flip-flops.It was a few minutes past 11 pm.David stepped out and was soon heading toward Sylvia’s chamber. When David got to the door, he was stunned to find it locked. As far as he was concerned, the servants were back to their rooms at such hour, probably resting. He turned around with a defeated sigh and was about to head back to his room when he saw Sylvia hurrying toward the corridor with her head lowered. “Where are you coming from?” David’s voice came on when she got closer. Sylvia instantly stopped. She lifted her head.David raised an eyebrow, expecting a response. What was she supposed to tell him? Wondered Sylvia. She had just gotten back from trailing his mother. She had eavesdropped on the most complicated conversation that could change his life.She was still in shock. David surveyed her. Why the hell was she wearing those baggy tr
FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON GODFATHER
Fred looked June straight in the face. She was displaying a blank expression while on her part, June could tell that Fred was mad as hell.“David is fucking Sylvia!”A lump suddenly settled on June’s neck and Fred watched her swallow it. She looked away with tears welling up in her eyes and after swinging her head from left to right, ensuring that no one heard the statement Fred had just blurted out, June paved the way for him to step inside.They got to the living room.Fred stood by the wall with his back resting against it.“Now I know why you look so fucking pissed.” June hinted and slapped her lap. She moved to one of the sofas and sat.Fred folded his arms across his chest and stared at her with astonishment. He was expecting her to counter the claim, go mad, or probably asked where the duo were.“You knew?”June clenched her jaw and turned to Fred with her legs crossed. “I got the hint but never thought it would happen.”Fred took his head into his hands and began to pace. “I l

Fred was about to head to the dining for breakfast when he saw Eleanor walking up to him. With his arms folded across his chest, he stopped and waited for her to reach him.The nervous Eleanor walked up to him with a grin Fred considered sheepish. Lately, he had noticed how nervous and quite different she seemed around him. It was unlike her.“Good morning!” She hailed, lifting her right palm.“Morning, Elly.” He replied, facing her.She cleared her throat loudly and began. “I was thinking maybe we could hang out tonight.”Fred raised an eyebrow.She shook her head. “Not in that kind of way.” She exhaled and continued. “So there’s a bonfire in my community tonight and judging by the fact that you loved the Fest, I thought maybe you would want to attend tonight’s event. It’s camping, barbecue, and some other stuff.“It sounds interesting. I’ll love to come.” Fred replied.Eleanor’s eyes widened in surprise. That was quite fast she thought and decided to drop the part that might make h
FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON BEN WAS MURDERED
“What was the meaning of that?” David flung the question at Fred the moment he stepped out. David was leaning against his Rolls Royce.Fred ignored David’s ferocious glare and pulled the door to the backseat. He hopped into the car and wrapped the seatbelt around him. He then threw his back against the car seat. David quickly joined him in the car. Derrick, the professional chauffeur was already in the driver’s seat.The moment Derrick stepped on the wheels, David turned toward Fred with his brows furrowing in anger. “You are the reason my dad wants to send Sylvia away right?”Fred folded his arms across his chest and arched a brow. “Are you kidding me?”“It was your idea. Wasn’t it?” David protested. “Unbelievable!” Fred marveled. First, David had flared up at breakfast and had barely touched his meal and now, he was looking like a volcano that was going to erupt simply because they came up with a theory with June. David loosened the grip his necktie had on him. “Just because y

"Come in!” Leonard responded from the inside.Sylvia exhaled sharply before reaching for the doorknob. She opened the door and stepped into the chamber feeling quite nervous.For the past two days, she had spent time with Leonard at the table. They had spoken about the future and other things and she was starting to grow comfortable around him and now, he had just summoned her to his room that morning.When she got into his room, he invited her to sit on the sofa adjacent to his bed. While rubbing her palms against each other tenderly, Sylvia sat and cast her gaze to the floor.Leonard cleared his throat loudly and threw his back against his chair.“David told me everything.” he began. He then took a deep breath. “I'm sorry!”Sylvia finally looked up at him.“I'm sorry for lying to you. When the autopsy report came and it was revealed that Ben was strangled, I was lost.” Leonard said.Sylvia sighed.“The thing about influential people is that sometimes, you can't differentiate your fr

Flashback!“What if I can't do it?” she said with trembling lips.The man sighed and walked up to her. He slowly reached for her hand. He then opened her palm and placed two pills inside.“We’ve talked about this over and over again June. You are not a baby. You can pull this off so go out there and show Daddy that you're a smart ass.” he said and patted her hand tenderly.June opened her palm and stared at the pills. Then, she slipped them inside her purse and took a deep breath.“I've done a lot for you child and I'm not asking you to pay me but if you can pull this one trick off, I'll be the happiest man in the world. I won’t ask for another favor other than this but if only she knew that it was just the beginning of his endless demands.She shut her eyes and felt a sense of calmness beginning to envelop her as he continued motivating her. He thenmoved closer to her and grabbed her arm like he was going to hug her.Then he began to whisper into her left ear.“If you want to make it

“You said we were only visiting June. You didn't tell me we were also going to see Cathrina.” Sylvia lamented as they traced their way towards David’s car.“If we are bent on making things right then we have to leave no stone unturned,” David replied. When they got to the car, Sylvia threw her back against the vehicle and heaved a deep sigh. David moved closer to her. He tilted her jaw with two fingers. “As long as you're with me, you don't have to worry about anything.”She threw her arms around him. “I love you, David.”“I love you most.”They got into the car and drove away. After driving for about twenty minutes, they made it to the detention center. As usual, Cathrina was informed of her visitors and she granted them an audience. The moment Sylvia and David walked hand in hand, Cathrina became emotional. She sniffled as tears began to well up in her eyes. The duo settled on the bench facing her. “You know what Sylvia? I used to think you were one of those gold diggers who

“Did you just hear what Fred said?” Sylvia flung the question at David the moment they walked into his room. “We can't get married in ten days.”David crashed by the edge of his bed with a sigh.The restless Sylvia began to pace.“Come and sit with me,” David told her.She didn't. She kept pacing back and forth.David stood up and grabbed her by the hand. He then led her to the bed.“There’s a lot on our plate David. There’s June to deal with, there's Griffin, and now…“Do you trust me?” David interrupted.She turned to him. “You know I do.”David swallowed and took charge of her hands. “There’s something you need to know.”He was staring directly into her eyes. Sylvia felt a tingling in her eyeballs. “There’s something you need to know too.”David sighed and then cleared his throat loudly. “I'll go first.”Sylvia encouraged him with a nod.“I met June recently.”Her eyes widened in horror.David didn't take his eyes off her. “I left home the other day because I couldn't bring myself

“You have five minutes!”Sylvia shut her eyes and opened them immediately. “You can do this, Sylvie.” She muttered under her breath and began marching forward.After making breakfast that morning, she decided to visit Cathrina at the detention center. She had thought about it the whole night and was ready to face one of her demons.She walked up to cell 4 as instructed by the woman at the counter and before opening the door, she stopped to ponder.What if David rages mad at the idea that she went behind his back to confront Cathrina?She sighed and reminded herself that she was on a personal quest. She will only be at peace once the circumstances surrounding her father’s death were laid to rest and now that she was carrying David’s child, she wanted to be at peace with the Wells.Sylvia pushed the door open and when she stepped in, she met Cathrina looking at her straight in the face.“I was taken aback when the officer told me one Sylvia Baker came to see me.” Cathrina spat and motio

David pulled open the door to his chamber. He walked inside with a bright smile and traced his way to the mirror.“I'm going to be a father!” David muttered under his breath as goosebumps took charge of his body. He stared at his reflection with prestige. Amidst the chaos, David never thought that he could be this happy. He cupped his face with his hands and broke into a resounding laughter. He quickly moved to the table beside his bed and began to pull all the cabinets out. When he got to the last cabinet, he collected all the photos and dumped them on the floor.When David returned to New York, he had asked his agent to get him the pictures of all the curvy girls in town; The one's he found appealing to the eye and for the past few months, he had been exploring them.“No more!” David declared and seized the pictures.He grabbed a matchbox and dashed out.

I thought we were each other's rescue mate?” Ellie said and

She had lost count of the times she had thrown up that night.It was past midnight yet she was unable to fall asleep. Her joints were aching and her head was hurting badly. She was just restless.

“You came to gloat? Go ahead son, it's what I deserve. Your father didn't make a mistake by keeping me here.” Cathrina said and hugged her knees with her chest.David moved closer to her and positioned his hands on his hips. “Did you say, my father? The last time I checked, you wanted to give me away to someone very easily.”She exhaled sharply and gave a smile but beneath her smile, David could see her pain.“You didn't care about how I felt or what I stood for. You just wanted to fulfill your selfish wish but I promise you, your lover will be apprehended and you guys might get to enjoy a little reunion before you end up in prison.” David said.“Leonard is a good man!”David chuckled. “Since when did you figure it out?”“I didn't just figure that out but I've always known from the start but to be honest, I have never been fair to him. I married him and never loved him.” she then look up at David. “When you meet someone you love, don't hesitate to spend the rest of your life with them
