"Violet worked at our Beverly Hills hotel. I fell for her badly last time when I stayed there. She's a nineteen-year-old orphan with two little brothers to take care of. I saw that she was struggling, so I convinced them to stay with me at my Santa Monica home. I want to marry her, Sera. You remember Leilani and her minions from my school days?" He asked Serenity who was patiently listening to him. 

So he was in love with a poor orphaned girl. Destiny proved to him that all these things were immaterial when you fall in love. The heart refuses to see anything else. It just falls in love with the other person's soul. 

"Yes, the bi*ch who made your life a living hell in school? She's still after you? She messages you, doesn't she?" Asked Serenity. 

"Yes. But I've blocked her. Still, she lands up at our h

    Serenity and Liam were held up at the hotel the next morning when an emergency situation needed their attention. They left for South LA, in the evening. They met Violet Nelson and her two siblings William and Walter. Serenity liked her instantly. She was very different from the other girls that she'd met. Exquisitely beautiful, young, and innocent, Violet seemed ethereal and angelic. No wonder Lucas had fallen head over heels in love with her.At first, she was apprehensive about traveling with them to Las Vegas but when she explained to her about Lucas, she agreed.They reached their mansion by 9:40 at night. Serenity led her towards the backside, to Lucas's building beside the swimming pool, followed by the twins and Liam. A maid ushered them inside. She brought their luggage too inside."T

    "Hello, Alex?" asked Lucas hesitantly into the phone, when at last someone picked up his call. He hadn't expected Alexander to ever attend to his call but he tried despite the knowledge. He wanted to make amends for the grave crime that he had committed five years back.There was silence on the other end and the steady, heavy breathing confirmed that someone was listening to what he had to say."I'm sorry for everything I ever said to you, dude. It was on the spur of the moment and I didn't mean a thing. I was just angry. I know that words once uttered can never be undone but I really wish I could. When I cooled down, I repented every second for the last five years for everything that I said to you that night. I wanted to apologize. I called you many times since then. Believe me, Alex, I haven't had any best friends since the day you left. But now I think

    Alexander's heart started beating rapidly with excitement. Seeing Serenity looking ravishing in a pale lavender gown with a sheer neckline and applique bodice, his determination to steer clear of her crumbled to dust. He stood hypnotized by her all throughout the wedding ceremony and Liam had to nudge him every now and then to remind him of his best man duties.He couldn't take his eyes off her, feeling himself get pulled towards her. She was his magnet and he was like a helpless piece of iron. He had sworn to himself before arriving here that he would just attend the wedding and leave but seeing Serenity again, all his resolutions crumbled to dust. He now had only one wish, to pull her into his arms and kiss her senseless, remind her that she was his, only his.At last, the wedding ceremony was over and the newlyweds and all the guests went to pose

    “Oh, sh*t, get a room guys," swore a grinning Liam as he crept into the lobby, interrupting Alexander and Serenity's tender moment. Serenity glared at him with a reddened face while Alexander groaned and left her."Liam, can you disappear for a few days?" Said Alexander feeling pissed off at the grinning Liam."Sure, boss. I'm planning to disappear to Lisa's house for a few days. I think I'm in love," he confessed."Don't you dare, Liam! Her dad and her brother will kill you. She's only seventeen," warned Serenity.Liam pouted, "Okay, after a year then. Oh, before I forget. Alexander, mom's hunting for you. Everyone's having their dinner. Soon there'd be no dinner left, " he informed, pulling a reluctant Alexander along with him to the buffet tabl

    Serenity explained everything to Logan as well as the contractor and walked back to her apartment to take a shower and have lunch. She went up to the second floor and unlocked the door. She went inside and locked the door after her."Where did you leave that boyfriend of yours?" Growled Alexander's voice. Was she dreaming or was it really Alexander's voice? She pinched herself and winced in pain. Looking around she stood shocked seeing an angry Alexander sitting on her sofa right in front of her."Lex? How did you get in?" She asked, puzzled. She still couldn't believe that it really was Alexander standing inside her apartment. How did he get in? Did he live in San Francisco? Her mind went into overdrive as a million questions erupted in her head."With the duplicate keys. You didn't answer my question?" He sa

    Serenity glared at Alexander who scratched his head with a goofy grin on his face. He looked a little guilty though. Logan on the other hand grinned with relief."So, this is the Alexander that you'd been pining away for?" Asked Logan with a grin."Shhh," said Serenity, blushing furiously as Alexander raised an eyebrow curiously, listening to their conversation."I'm relieved that I'm alive to marry my Jenna at the end of the month," he confessed and Carla inspected his wounds."Let's get you fixed up before Jenna's video call or else she'll blast me," she said, pulling him along with her to fix his wounds. The moment they left Serenity turned towards Alexander."What were you up to, mister?" She glared at h

    Serenity was very eager to go back to her apartment. She returned by 4 o'clock in the afternoon and unlocked the door and went inside. Alexander was roaming around in just a pair of sweatpants, riding low. He might have brought more clothes to change into."When did you return?" She asked him, disposing of her jacket."Ten minutes back," he said, coming closer and pulling her into his arms. He nuzzled his face into her neck. "I missed you, Serena." He whispered into her neck, sucking and kissing her neck. She arched her neck giving him more access. She held him tenderly, her fingers weaving and massaging through his hair. He groaned and kissed her more."I missed you too, Lex, " she confessed and he just picked her up and carried her to the bed. She was so addictive that all he thought the whole da

    Serenity paid the cab driver and trudged up to the backside of her mansion. It was 9 o'clock at night and her family might have just completed their dinner. Her appetite was gone and she didn't have any wish to face anyone at the moment. Still, she had to inform her parents of her arrival, so she reluctantly walked into the main building, straight to the dining room."Oh, sweetie, you've come back? Sit and have dinner with us, " said her mom, coming forward and hugging her."No, mom. I ate on the flight," she lied. She just needed the privacy of her room."Are you okay? Is your work in San Francisco done or do you need to go back?" Asked her dad."Done, dad. Can we talk tomorrow, please? I'm too tired," she said and everyone stared at her.

    9 Months LaterSerenity devoured the sundae that her heart had been craving to have and grinned happily at Alexander. For the last nine months, she had been having weird food cravings and Alexander had obliged her to the best of his abilities. He had transformed himself and had become a very good cook, putting all of them to shame. Serenity couldn’t have asked for a better life partner and she was glad that she got a chance to see this side of his character.He was very caring always but the way he selflessly cared for his family was something she had never seen anyone do. He took her to every doctor visit and took out time to make her a diet chart to follow every day. Not only their unborn baby, but the way he cared for Adriel and Alexa was also applaudable. Her parents had arrived last month and even they couldn’t help but praise Alexander’s efforts. The tw

Said two-year-old Alexa, with puppy dog eyes. Walter picked her up in his arms. She looked so tiny compared to his five feet eleven inches in height."Not today princess.

    She walked to the reception party in the garden. A huge white tent-like structure was made under which everyone was gathered. The entire area was decorated using natural tones like sandy beige, white and gray complemented by bright purple and lavender. Bouquets and centerpieces were also kept simple and featured white roses, vibrantly deep purple tulips, and lavender sprigs.The 20-foot head table covered in a white cover was lined with real white and neutral sea coral as well as floating candles and lavender ranunculus. The chairs were covered in white with lavender bows tied around them.Her eyes searched for Alexander who was enjoying a drink with her brothers, Lucas, Liam, and Tyler.

    Nancy came into the nursery with a smile the moment Alexander went out. She helped Serenity to switch the babies.After they were done, Serenity went to Alexander's room to freshen up for dinner. However, to her immense embarrassment, Alexander sat at his desk on his laptop. The moment she walked in, he looked up at her. Serenity’s cheeks colored profusely as his piercing gaze swept over her body. “Umm, I’ll just change out of this,” she said awkwardly. Alexander nodded silently, his eyes not leaving hers for even a second. There was a strange electric current in the air around them and the se*ual tension was too much to bear. Serenity picked up her clothes and rushed into the en-suite to change as Alexander’s eyes followed her around. She changed into a navy blue A-line, chiffon, sleeveless dress and walked out into the bedroom. Alexander’s eyes again took h

    Alexander carried her all the way and up the stairs much to her embarrassment. "Lex put me down. I can walk, " she said, her cheeks flushed and hot. Did he forget that Nancy was inside somewhere?"No, I want to carry you," he said stubbornly, glancing at her and winking. She rolled her eyes at him but her heart was beating faster and faster with every step that he took. She wondered where he was carrying her to. With his admission came the realization that she had unnecessarily misunderstood him. He had always loved her. If she hadn’t been so stupid, they would have been married by now."Alex, where do I keep Serenity's stuff?" Asked Grant, coming up behind them with Serenity's luggage. She wriggled to get down but Alexander held her tightly, not releasing her at all. Serenity’s cheeks colored profusely.

    It was a wild, searing kiss that heated her whole body. His tongue plunged into her parted mouth and he tasted her like a hungry predator, not able to contain himself anymore. His arm left the wall and went around her waist pulling her closer and crushing her against his hard body. His tongue played with hers, making her surrender completely to the intense and wild kiss. His body was already on fire, his kiss was full of passion too and it melted Serenity to the core of her heart. He was all she'd been craving the whole of last year. Now that he was with her, she couldn't help but hold him close. Her fingers tangled in his silky hair as she moaned into his mouth. He kissed and kissed her more till she was completely breathless."Oh, God, I've wanted to do this for so long," he said in between kisses. She couldn't move out of his arms, not that she wanted to. Her knees had turned to liquid. He had tha

    "Let them come in, Alex," said his mom. Alexander helped Serenity with the strollers. She came inside and sat in the living room. His mom poured over Alexa and Adriel, cooing at them, making them gurgle with pleasure."Oh, aren't they cute? They must be quite a handful," she said, picking up Alexa in her arms. Alexander took Alexa from her arms and held her to his chest, nervously so as not to hurt her."She's so tiny. What's her name?" He asked, slowly rocking Alexa. She snuggled into his chest and Alexander felt choked with emotions at her behavior. He felt a strange connection to her and he had no idea how."Alexa," said Serenity, her cheeks coloring a little. Would he realize the connection?Alexander looked at her, and at Alexa. He was confus
