Thankfully she was able to steady herself before she bolted off again in full tilt, her tiny legs carrying her with boundless energy.

"Goddess." I muttered, knowing I had to go get her immediately before something worse happened.

I quickly stood up from the window side where I was seated.

"She's just like his father, they never rest. You should let her. " My mother said, smiling the moment she knew what was happening.

"I'm not taking the chance mother." I said, hurrying towards the door before she said something else to stop me. I could hear her laughter as I walked through the passageway, en route to the outside.

A tender smile crossed my face the moment I saw Ichabod running after her. They were chasing a butterfly and the moment she caught it, they admired it for a while, the laughter ceasing. She flashed a grin the moment she saw me and stretched her hands like I had caught her doing something wrong.

"Mummy, here! A butterfwy!" She exclaimed. Her L's and R's rolled off as W'

    The room was filled with the aroma of freshly prepared food but I knew that eating we just felt like I was pouring ashes into my own mouth. I could not eat because my heart was shattered. I looked up again at the table to see the pastries, grapes and all other sorts of food that was scattered around it because none of it appeared to me at all. I could not eat because my heart was filled with guilt and the Guilt no matter how much I tried to state a side continued to gnaw at me from the inside. It felt as though I was being ripped apart from inside because how could I sit here and try to eat while my mate and my unborn child were in the captivity of an enemy who I knew nothing about. The worst part of the whole thing was that the enemy who had abducted my maids had not offered any kind of Ransom and it was clear that they wanted her to themselves because they needed something. She was very Gifted so that might be their main aim but I could not say how she couldn't have gotten herse

    Every morning that I woke up in this dank, damp cave, my confidence that I would be rescued one day gradually waned. With each passing day my cope gradually chipped away into the Dark void that awaited me. I had done everything possible to use my powers and use them against my cactus but none of it worked. Even my wolf had not been active at all. I had done everything to communicate with my wolf but it seemed impossible.It was at this point that I knew that I was alone and that I had to even put more effort and make sure that I got out of this place. But with my condition, I wondered how that was going to be possible. The fact that it was going to be very hard scared me more than anything else because I couldn't bear the thought of complications. So I just had to keep my eyes Sharp and wait for the right moment to strike. I woke up the next morning feeling very weak but I kept it to myself because I did not want to see that bastard's face. I knew so damn well that's all he would d

    I wondered what they gained from making me uncomfortable not minding the situation that I have found myself in. I wondered how things would turn out in the next few days now that I have been caught. I instinctively knew that their punishment was going to be very bad. But I knew I had to endure the whole thing until I was rescued from this horrible cave. After making fun of me, the men began to walk out of the room once they began hearing footsteps. I knew it was Mateo but actually he did not come anywhere near the room. I sat there in the darkness and the silence staring at the place of food on the floor. They had tied my hand just to make sure I ate in the most degrading way possible. My heart was filled with hatred and anger as I sat there staring at the untouched food before me. The aroma alone seemed to be mocking my predicament, and even though I was hungry I didn't have any kind of appetite because my heart was very heavy with lots of thoughts and fears.I wondered how I was

    We made sure to get everything ready and inspect if there was anything we were leaving behind thankfully there was nothing remaining. The morning had been a very restless one since the mysterious man had interrupted our breakfast with the spine-chilling news. At this moment I still remembered how the man had run into the room with a very worried look on his face. After that he claimed that he had zeen Reene being abducted and taken into a cave in the northmost part of the woods. We had all stopped eating in shock because this was the second time that it was happening. The first time it had happened, the men had killed themselves, and now this. The only mistake I had made was thinking that this was going to be a different situation, but in the end, it turned out to be wrong. The other descriptions that he had provided were vague at best and before we could get any other information from him, he took out his dagger from his clothes and slashed his throat. I Immediately got up from m

    “Just this once pretty. Please." Greg whined clasping both of his hands. We got pretty close together over the twelve months of knowing each other. I clearly told him I wasn't ready to be in a relationship which he accepted only after trying so many times with no success. And I can't still believe that Greg owns the very bar where I worked. Even the gym center where Josh had took me to the day we went out together. I still find it hard to believe. Not that he's too small to own and manage two business but the way he managed to keep it a secret from me. Josh was the actually the one who told me and when I asked Greg, he just shrugged and said. “It's no big deal.” “Josh and Eshe will be there too.” Greg added just as I shoved a glass of water his way. Josh and Eshe are finally together as a couple, three weeks ago Josh moved in with her with an excuse of: I can't be far away from the love of my life. I might die. After Zayn acquired (DFB), Eshe quit saying she wish to fulfil

    “The man you just introduced me to.” Greg started saying. “Is that your ex fiancee?” I nodded my head before accepting the glass of wine Eshe handed me muttering a low “Thank you."“He's cute." She said.“I think your he wants to swallow you up.” Josh said with a hint of annoyance and I couldn't help but turn my head around to the back.Sure enough at the far corner of the room where he sat with Jack, he was staring at me and maybe, just maybe it's my imagination but his curled into a small smile.I quickly withdraw my gaze taking my eyes to the front.“What the heck." My hands points to the front just as Josh turns his head.The art piece has just be unveiled and__ “Oh shit." Josh cursed as his head turned back and his eyes slowly found mine.And we both knew what was on the tip of our tongue. The very art piece I and Josh had planned on stealing, the very art piece that made me agreed to be Zayn's fake fiancee just so I could protect Josh. The very art piece I used my eyes to behol

    “Hey man, you need to get your shit in order." Amad said from behind me.I turned around to face the mother fucker.“You should know that the last thing I want to see right now is your face. How did you even get into my office?”He snickered and poured himself a drink from my bottle of scotch sitting on the table.“I was only trying to help man and besides it's not my first time of coming into your office.”My hands curled into a fist but I refrained myself from doing anything crazy. “Did I ever tell you I needed your help? I was okay being with Kacie, but because of your stupid reasons of not liking her you went ahead and forced a lady to go for surgery that will make her look exactly like Alessandra.” his mouth moved to say something but I waved my hands to quiet him.“As if that wasn't enough you had the nerves to tell my mother about my complicated relationship with Kacie when you fully know now that my intentions and love for her are really genuine same as her. So don't you fucking

    “So, why are you back in my house when you should be with Eshe?” I eyed Josh over as I handed him a plate of sausage, fried eggs, sandwich and steak: medium rare alongside a cup of plain coffee.“Did you just say 'my'?"I rolled my eyes. “I've living alone in the house for almost six months, so I should just begin calling it my house."He snorted loudly and grabbed his cup of steaming coffee.“Don't be scared, I'm did not come to take over the house sweetheart, I have something to talk to you about. But first, why was Zayn coming out of the house yesterday?"I shifted quite uncomfortably on my seat not liking the immediate change of the atmosphere in the room. “Is it something so serious?" I asked ignoring the part concerning Zayn.He nodded his head as he scraped the last morsel of egg on the plate.“Otherwise I wouldn't be here. I had wanted us talking about it yesterday night, but seeing how tired and pale your face looked I decided to just tell you about it today. Also, you're yet

    The next few days following my claiming Kacie back has been the best days of my whole life.Going on dates, having sex countless times and to conclude it all, she and Rafiq became so close I feared she won't have time for me anymore. I've been begging her like forever to move back in but at the end she would just say "I'm not ready yet, and I'm working now.”So our everyday routine is:she comes to my house whenever she's off work, spend time with Rafiq and me which is never enough and then I'll drive her back home.“Hey.” I said to a very surprised Kacie clad in just a towel.We were supposed to go out on a date by ten but here I am standing before her eight on a dot. Don't blame me, I can't help it. I can't even concentrate in the office if Kacie isn't beside me.“Hi." She said slowly when the surprise of seeing me wear off then she stepped back to allow me inside.“Are you aware you're two hours early?"“Two hours? I'm a little late if I came two hours before the agreed time.” I wal

    “Do you think you can make it to my house tonight for dinner? My father is coming over so I thought it'd be nice to invite you guys.” I asked Eshe over the phone.“Sure. Of course." She answered giggling slightly.“I would love to."“Alright. See you soon." I said then hung up.Since my father said he was coming over for dinner today two weeks after we met. I'm so eager and anxious to see him again because he travelled out for business and he wasn't around. So we couldn't see each other and catch up on the time we lost although we talked twice on phone.I rushed to ask Josh who always looked like he knows much about my father to ask him what kind of dishes my father fancies.I wasn't so surprised when he told me Italian and Chinese food. I really have many things in common with my father, Now the problem is what should I prepare?Debating for more than an hour before I finally settled down to go for bruschetta, chicken parmesan and chicken pao.I glanced at my phone, few minutes past s

    “You've got any plans today?" Zayn asked me.I was about saying no when I remembered promising Josh to come over for dinner. “Yes.”I had to spend the night at Zayn's because Rafiq had begged me to and I couldn't bear to deny him his wish.He even asked me to wait and have breakfast together with them and God__It was the most awkward breakfast I've had in my entire life.If not for Miriam I sure would have lost my sanity right at the dining table. And finally after breakfast when I thought I would be free from both father and son and just head home, they both walked their way into the kitchen where I was helping nanny Miriam out with the dishes and dragged me out begging me to help Rafiq out with his maths.Actually it was only Rafiq that did the saying but I could bet my salary that his father filled his head up with words to use so I would find it hard to reject his request.And to Zayn's happiness I couldn't reject helping Rafiq which is the only reason I'm still here till noon wh

    “Kacie darling, it's so nice to see you." Miriam pushed past me and engulfed Kacie in a hug.“The house hasn't been quite itself since you left." I groaned at her tone. She's been fussing the entire month, right after I kicked out the fake Alessandra to bring back Kacie and build a perfect family.She wouldn't let me have a breath comfortably without bringing up Kacie.“I'm sorry ma. I didn't mean to leave in such a manner." Kacie apologize and kissed her right cheek.“It's fine, as long as you're back now. We have a lot of catching up to do." I almost coughed. How will she react if I told her Kacie is yet to accept me back. I don't want to imagine it at all.“Are you hungry?" Miriam added leading her inside the house. I shook my head and followed them inside. It would have been perfect only if she had accepted me already, then I would be rest assured and focused on dealing with my uncle.“Where's Rafiq?” I asked coming back into the living after searching upstairs without seeing him

    Looking down at my burnt waffles with sleepy eyes I cursed silently before discarding it into my trash can.I woke up few minutes to six thanks to the blazing hunger In my stomach. For the past five days I've been feeling weird: always eating, sleeping almost all the time and I suddenly developed a lazy attitude.Looking at my burnt breakfast in my trash can I hissed in frustration before grabbing a bowl. I poured enough cereal that on a normal day I won't dare to finish it, poured in enough fresh fruit and milk before walking down to the living room to eat.Who could be calling so early in the morning. I stared at my vibrating phone in annoyance before picking it up. It might be someone important.“Hello." I mouthed into the phone.“I thought you wouldn't pick up.” I pulled the phone from my ear and looked at the strange number.“Josh how many times did you change your number this month? And why are you calling me this early, You're supposed to be sleeping.”“Yes. But I just wanted t

    “This restaurant looks very fancy and beautiful but...Why is it empty?” her eyes were all over scanning the empty tables around us.I acted like I was surprised too because if she knows I booked the entire restaurant for our date, she's likely to kick a fuss.“You didn't book the entire restaurant right?" Her eyes were fixed on me.“I didn't. You don't really like lemons, why are you having lemon bar for dessert?" I asked before popping an apple pie into my mouth.I had waited until my mother healed up completely before I picked a date for our date. Much to my relief she and my mother relationship are back to normal which only means one thing. I'm one step to winning my woman back.“You really know a lot about me don't you?" She was smiling.I shrugged.“You were my fiancèe for a year it would be a shame if I don't know a thing about you."She smiled again then focused her attention and continued eating on her dessert.“I want to try new things.”I nodded my head.“Might I venture to ask

    I stared on as Zayn's mother breathing slowed down. I wasn't so sure if what I applied on her affected leg would help.The antidote I used was given to me by my late grandmother, I was little then__I never thought a time would come when I will have to use it. I've tried my best, the least I could do now is to wait for her to fight her way back because as it is now my life might as well be entwined with hers.I kept back the towel I used in calming her temperature down inside a bowl of water and carried it up to take it to the kitchen.“Don't you think we should take her to the hospital or should I call our family doctor?" Zayn asked from behind where he's been standing ever since I asked him to come back.“She will be fine.” I said. Even to my ears I sounded very unconvincing. “Let's leave her to rest, the venom will flow out of her system In a few minutes.” or hours.“After that you can take her to the hospital." I added so he might be at ease a little.“I'll just stay here with her.

    I sat down outside patiently waiting for Kacie to return back home from work. It's been two hours past the time her shifts normally end. I'm beginning to lose my patience, I really need to see her face. To hold her hand.The sound of a car driving in pulled my head up and made me stop fidgeting with my fingers.My eyes lowered down to the hands of Greg wrapped around her tiny waist and heaven knows I want to rip his flesh out of his damn bone.They both couldn't see me where I was sitting on her stairs giving Greg dangerous glares. To crown it all he kissed her on her forehead before going into his car. Hell she was even smiling and waving at him.I sat still and waited for her to come meet me and the shock on her face seeing me sitting there with my arms folded is priceless. “What are you doing here?" She asked quietly.“What does it look like pumpkin? I'm here to see you of course."She scoffed and brushed past me going to open her door. “Are you coming in or not?"“You don't need

    “What will you like please?" I asked whoever was standing before me without lifting my eyes up from the tumbler I was arranging.“Tonic and gin.”“Okay.” I turned back to the stack of drinks arranged on the shelf behind me.“Here's your drink__" my words got trapped in my throat as I stared at the man sitting before me.“Kacie?" He voiced out.“Y-Yes, I'm Kacie." I managed to say as I took the man in. Green eyes just that his were a little dark than mine. His hair color. This man sitting here__this man is my father.“Can we go out and talk, don't worry I talked to your boss already so you're free to come with me. If you want to." He added stressing out the 'if I want to'“Sure. Let's go." I ignored the voice yelling in my head that I barely know this man, I only found out two days ago that I have a father and mother other than the monster and beast who brought me up. But somehow I quickly felt safe the moment I laid my eyes on this man.I took a quick glance at Olivia who was standing
