Daisy's POVMy relationship with Sidney at this time was complicated. We barely go out on dates anymore. He still calls me and tells me he loves me. We only meet in school.I was confused. I didn't even know if I should call what I had with him a relationship. The connection was not there. I was ready to break up with him after the drama that happened between us when he discovered Ellah. I thought he was going to stop calling or he would try to pick up a fight with me but surprisingly, two days after the incident, he called and pretended like it never happened. He never asked of her and I never brought it up in any of her conversations. How can I be with someone that doesn't want my daughter? I asked myself. I told mom about it and she kept saying to play along. But for how long will this go on?The last time we went out was almost 6 months and when he pulled up in front of the house before I could go out, he pecked my lips andBab terkait

We rode in silence for a while before I spoke up. I was waiting for the right time to ask him the question that has been on my mind since he made mention of Damien. I didn't want him to figure out anything."About Damien", I cleared my throat.He looked at me. "What about him?"I couldn't find my voice. I didn't even know what I wanted to ask him anymore. I was damn scared.Finally, I said. "Do you know him that much? How come? He was not our schoolmate.""Of course I do. He was Eric's buddy.""Eric?"I asked with astonishment. "Maria's boyfriend?"He nodded and stared at me with curiosity written all over him."How come I never knew?""I got to know him from Eric. He's not based in New York. He was only there for high school.""So that means he will be out of New York by now?""Yea, probably. I think that was why he was asking you. Is there anything between you two?""Of course not, "I lied."He looked smit
FATED BOND CHAPTER 37
I was mad at Sidney. He didn't even call to ask how I was faring and also about Ellah. What sort of boyfriend is he? It was evident enough that he was no good for me.After I left the party that night, I was grateful that I wasn't too late to get a cab back home. My stupid boyfriend didn't even make any attempt to see me off not to talk of taking me back home or to the hospital.I knew it was no other than our family's hospital so I rushed there. My baby was in the intensive care unit and I couldn't help but cry. I realized at that instant that I had less time for my baby and more time for my useless boyfriend. Sometimes, I go to bed without even seeing her throughout the day. This was because Nadia takes her to school as early as possible before I even wake up to prepare for my school.I always get back home in the evening when Ellah was at Mrs Landon's residence, studying with her son, Jason. Before she comes back I'd be asleep already, school work was b
FATED BOND CHAPTER 38
"I can't help but blame myself. I was out partying when my baby was feeling unwell. What sort of a mother does that?" I asked Nina."Don't be too hard on yourself. Nadia and I are taking good care of her. And you are still young. You don't need to let her deprive you of the joy of being a teenager...........""And a mother. I am a mother, Nina. She needs me."She touched my shoulders again and her hand felt warm against my silky dress. She was glowing these days and I guess I was meant to help her devise a way to be happy, whereas I was angry, devastated, and frustrated at just 20."You don't get my point. You are Ellah's mother and nobody is disputing that fact but she is our baby too, Nadia and I. She is Nadia's goddaughter and she is my granddaughter. Stop blaming yourself too much. I believe this was destined to happen'', she finished and rested her back on the seat."Destiny?"I asked back and she nodded. I was ready to argue with her over that when I re
FATED BOND CHAPTER 39
Nina's POVI was really mad at Daisy. How could she behaved like I had no say at all? I was doing all of that for her sake and also for Ellah. I didn't want Ellah to end up like my Damien. Damien grew up without knowing his father and I blamed myself for that.Sometimes, he'd come home from school and ask me when his dad would come to visit. I always end up crying each time he asks me that. Because I knew the truth. I knew his father would never come home. Because his home was somewhere else... Far from us.But the moment Daisy came back home in tears, my anger dissolved and was replaced with worry. I was worried Sidney eventually took advantage of her. I was angry at myself and I was sure I would never forgive myself if that was the case. It was more like Daisy accepted him because I convinced her to...she went along with the relationship because I told her to.Daisy wouldn't even talk to me that night and I rushed to Richard to voice out my fears.

Damien's POV"It's been a while since I got laid", I told Leo as his car roared to life. I knew he was going to tease me but I was also surprised too.He chuckled lightly. "You don't mean that, man.""I'm dead serious. It's more than a year already.""I thought you were going to get that naughty girl that was clinging to you throughout James' party. I can't believe it.""I'm not kidding, Leo '', I said with all seriousness and fastened my seat belt before laying my back on the car seat. I really do not feel like going out but the thought of getting laid forced me out. I really need it.We were going to Xinjiang 's birthday party. She was a coursemate of mine. We just have a few month to go before we graduate and I was excited about going home. Dad had always been saying something about staying with him in China so I can work with him in his new company.But even after four years, I still find the people there fucking annoying and I find it ha
FATED BOND CHAPTER 41
Amar's POVI was mad at myself for everything. I was still mad at Lakshmi and I don't know if I can ever forgive her for the pain she had caused. I thought I was treating her badly all these years, whereas she was backstabbing me. She had an affair behind my back. I found it so hard to believe that my sweet Yashmi isn't my biological daughter. I love those girls so much and it hurts like hell knowing I ain't their father. She claimed Yani is mine but how could I trust her again?Lakshmi's parents were disappointed in her. I told her parents to let her be with the man she loved but they kicked against it. They said she had already tarnished their image and giving her their support will tarnish it the more. Society will see it as an encouragement for fornication. I left them there after informing them of my decision to divorce her.Lakshmi wouldn't stop crying when I presented the divorce papers to her. Her parents couldn't say anything. Her father, especial
FATED BOND CHAPTER 42
Nina's POVTo say I was confused was an understatement. Danny was still crouched on one knee with the open box in his hand as he stared back at Amar. Amar sauntered in with a boyish smile on his face. He ignored everyone. His gaze was on me.Danny stood up immediately and I could see that he felt intimidated and angry at Amar's presence.What the hell is Amar doing here of all time? Must he always come into whatever makes me happy? Danny makes me happy and I am just about to accept his proposal but Amar is here to spoil everything. A proposal I didn't get from him. I anticipated it but it never came. Why does his visit have to be now? I asked myself"Who the hell is this?" Danny questioned with an angry look on his face as he pocketed the box."Who the hell are you too?" Amar retorted back.I never knew my birthday would turn out that way. My day was already ruined by Amar's presence. I turned to look at Daisy and Nadia who were silently watching
FATED BOND CHAPTER 43
Daisy's POVI was in my room but I could hear the yellings from Nina and Amar. I was as confused as hell. And I could see the reason why Nina fell in love with him. He was handsome and calm-looking. His bears were curly, the same with his long hair. The hair reminded me of Damien. Amar also had clear crystal blue eyes, which I found rare in India. His round face and cheekbone added to his looks. He looked manly with his broad shoulders and I was sure he had a tattoo. I could see the traces from his neck.Even without having a conversation with him, I liked him already. He was looking very calm with his infectious smile. I could see why Nina couldn't get him off her head.After Nina left him with Ellah, I went downstairs to meet him. His eyes were full of sadness and sorrow. The moment he saw me, he smiled and picked Ellah up from where she had fallen asleep before passing her to me.I watched the way he handled her carefully and I was thrilled to see

Nina's POVI was in the bathroom when I heard Damien come into the room. I heard him asking of me and Amar told him I was in the bathroom. I was having difficulty bending down to wash my leg and private part because I was heavily pregnant.I thought Damien was out until I began to hear him whispering. Amar did the same too and I couldn't comprehend what they were talking about. I rinsed the soap off my body, washed my hair, and allowed the to water wash through me once more before putting off the shower and tying my towel around me. The towel was different from the one I was using before my pregnancy because the one I was using was too small for me. I had to get a bigger one.I opened the door slightly to see Amar and Damien still whispering some words to each other. The only thing I was able to grab before they looked up to see me staring at them was "Daisy."My curiosity got the better of me. "What are you two talking about?"Damien gave me a boyish
FATED BOND CHAPTER 64
Damien's POV"Happy birthday, darling", I scooped Ellah up in my arms and kissed her on the forehead."Thank you, daddy" she grinned. "and thanks for the gift", she held onto the doll I got for her tightly and I smiled. I was glad she loved it. "I love you.""I love you too, sweetheart.""Ellah, you love your dad? What about me?" Daisy questioned with a pout, folding her arms."I love you too, mommy", she chuckled and I laughed softly."What about me?" My mom also appeared from nowhere with her protruding belly."I love you, granny.""I love you more", mom said as Ellah struggled to get out of my hold. I dropped her and moved close to Daisy. She was busy cutting Ellah's birthday cake and distributing it amongst Ellah's classmates who came for the birthday party.My hand found it's way to her waist and she looked up at me."Let's get away from here", I whispered close to her ears. She began to shake her head in disagreement.
FATED BOND CHAPTER 63
Damien's POVShe was like a magnet. I couldn't get enough of her. She was still as tight as I could remember and that pulled me over the edge. I lost control and made love to her over and over again till we both fell asleep.When I woke up, I saw her staring at me with loving eyes. I knew I had earned her forgiveness and I was hoping I won't mess up again. It hurt to see her hurt. There was no doubt about my feelings for her. The feelings I tried to deny when I saw her on the staircase that evening. The fact remained that I was still in love with her."I missed you, Damien", she whispered.Her voice alone turned me on. I wanted to respond but I couldn't. The only thing on my mind was making love to her again. I wish we would stay there all day long and forever in each other's arms. I took her lips, bit her softly and caressed her cheeks. She moaned and it turned me on. I tried to straddle her so I could take her again but she pulled away. I couldn't read her expr
FATED BOND CHAPTER 62
Damien's POVI hadn't seen Daisy since the night she slapped me and I was filled with nothing but remorse and guilt ever since the night. I felt it was necessary to ask for her forgiveness. When I got into the house, I went straight upstairs to her room."Your boyfriend...." I heard mom saying to her as she giggled."Boyfriend?" I demanded, entering the room fully. I was with a frown on my face. I wondered who the boyfriend was."Yes, her boyfriend", mother said vehemently. "She's going out with him tonight. Any problem with that?" Her arms were on her waist with her belly poking out."Nothing. I just came to ask for Daisy's forgiveness. I'm sorry for whatever I must have done to offend you, Daisy. Find a place in your heart to forgive me."She nodded in response without uttering a word. I guess that was her way of saying my attention was not needed so I turned back to move out, without any further word or looking back.I got to my room and s
FATED BOND CHAPTER 61
Daisy's POV"You shouldn't have slapped him", aunt Vanessa queried me when we got home. Ellah was asleep in Nina's arms and Damien was nowhere to be found."He deserved it", Nina remarked. It almost made me smile.She was a great woman indeed. If it were other people, they would have turned to support their son but Nina was different. She stood by me.....for the truth, even though he was her son. I was sure she would have done the same thing if it were someone else. She was amazing and I loved her more."She shouldn't have done that in the presence of Ellah", aunt Vanessa insisted. There was no reply from Nina. I guessed she agreed with aunt Vanessa on that. "The poor girl wouldn't stop crying until her father said something into his ears that got her grinning from ear to ear. I'm sure it was the name of chocolate that made her happy again."None of us replied. I sat on the chair beside Nina and closed my eyes, rubbing my finger over my forehead, hoping the
FATED BOND CHAPTER 60
Daisy's POVWe watched as Aunt Vanessa jumped into Danny's arm with tears streaming down her eyes. Danny didn't recover from the shock until aunt Vanessa kissed his lips and called his name again. Nina looked at me with a puzzled look, and I nodded at her with a smile, hoping she got the message.I was happy for aunt Vanessa but when I remembered what I was doing before then, sadness engulfed me as I watched Nina dragging my box back upstairs."No, mom. Please." I pleaded with her and tried to stop her from dragging the box."Please what?"I shook my head. "I can't stay here anymore. I can't." I sniffed."Daisy, you've been here for four years......""Please, this is what I want. I can't do this. It's torture.""Daisy", Amar called.I kept shaking my head. I didn't want them to convince me. I didn't want to stay. I was tired of holding onto lost hope...it was just like being hopeless. I wanted to be far from Damien. Being close to h
FATED BOND CHAPTER 59
Daisy's POVA week after arriving from the Philippines, I went back to school. The house was unusually quiet. I was no longer comfortable and I was finding it hard to continue calling Nina my mom. I barely go out of my room, except when I was going to school or when I want to go and pick Ellah up from school whenever Nadia wasn't around.I saw Damien once when he was going out in his father's car and Richard was driving inside the house with me. Our eyes met for a brief second before he looked away.It is obvious I mean nothing....absolutely nothing to him, I said to myself. He seemed fine to me like nothing happened, like everything was fine and normal but I wasn't feeling that way.Knowing we live under the same roof was pure torture, seeing him was hell, and knowing what we had was nothing to him made me feel miserable. For the first two days, I cried myself to sleep.I hated myself for thinking and holding onto what we shared that night and I hated
FATED BOND CHAPTER 58
Nina's POV"You mean you were the one that had sex with Daisy all along?" I queried Damien."What do you mean all along? It was just a one-night stand." He replied and I gasped at his bluntness."One nightstand? You had sex with her twice.""She told you that? How did you even know her?""Are you seriously listening to yourself? She gave birth to your child."He scoffed. "How am I even sure the baby is mine ?""Damien", I called and moved closer to him. Then I slapped him. Tears were streaming down my eyes already.Who would have thought I took in my grandchild? I asked inwardly. What would have happened to Daisy and Ellah if I hadn't taken them in? Daisy suffered alone because of my irresponsible son.I was disappointed and his statement increased my disappointment and anger. The memories of my past came rushing. How I had to fend for him, care for him alone without his father."Mom, you slapped me?" He questioned.
FATED BOND CHAPTER 57
Daisy's POV"Who the hell is Lizzy?" Grandmother lamented.I shook my head. She was too choosy when it comes to her association with other humans. I was sure she doesn't like Lizzy just from the name. Grandmother was insisting that we get the company back. That was when I told them about Lizzy.I stayed back in the Philippines because my grandmother insisted I stay. Aunt Vanessa supported her. We discussed a lot, including Aunt Susana.I also got to meet Fred, aunt Vanessa's son. He was an intelligent and smart kid. When aunt Vanessa told him I was his aunt, he hugged me fiercely asking me different questions about where I stayed and about Ellah."Dad had an affair with her and she got pregnant. She informed me about the bankruptcy and that Susana wants to sell the company. Nina wanted to help me but I refused. I didn't want her to waste her money for nothing. Lizzy later called to inform me that she bought the company already."
