Belle's POV

My things are still packed. When I came out of the house this morning, I noticed how gloomy everywhere was, even Lily was unusually quiet today. Natalie and Tania wouldn't talk to me and I began to have a second thought about leaving.

Pam says there is a party tonight and she wants me to come before I leave Zayden's house. We went shopping and by the time we were back in the mansion, it was already late and time to prepare.

Pam tried to convince me. She said Zayden loves me but it sounds ridiculous. This man does not have a heart to love. Even if he loves me, is that his way of showing love?

That is the most absurd way of showing love to someone and I don't even believe her. I know she is only saying that for me to stay. I can't be deceived for the second time.

    Tessa's POVThe noise seems to be coming from the living room. I stretch, yawn, and get up from the bed, looking sideways at Damien's sleepy figure. I hear footsteps and I wonder if there is an intruder in here. I look at Damien once again, thinking if waking him up is a good idea.This is an opportunity to kill him now but I won't. The sex was great as usual. I grin and get up. I pick up my pants and wear them before picking up my torn cloth. I am glad I am here with another cloth. I wear my bra and open the door slowly to go out. I tiptoe to the living room where the noise is coming from. I am almost there when I hear a gunshot, I gasp and stand still, perspiring heavily in fear.I hear a loud thud and footsteps. My curiosity to know what is happening is gone, I just want to get out of here. I can't go out in my half-torn dress, I need to go through the front door so I can pick up my disguise gown. After taking a deep breath and telling myself that I am courageous, I move further.

    Belle's POVA WEEK AFTERI am still here, in Zayden's mansion, with my baby. We have been avoiding each other ever since that night. It seems to me like he is the one avoiding me the most, he sneaks in and out of the house without me knowing.I know I am not supposed to slap Zayden but I felt he deserved it for so many reasons. First, for kissing me and wanting me to believe what Pam said. Second, for all the pains he had caused me and my mother. I believe the slap is nowhere near half of what he has done to us.That night, when I entered the house after slapping him, I got a call from my mother and she was seriously crying over the phone. I went back outside immediately. Zayden was still in his car and he kept asking me where I was going. I didn't answer him.I called my driver out and he drove me to my mother's house. Mother was in a consolable state and I kept asking her what the matter was, she couldn't tell me until she stopped crying. I felt sorry for her and guilty. I totally f

He asked me to come to his house and I was thinking he wanted to introduce me to his parents again, after waving off the thoughts of him proposing marriage to me. I was trying to think of a genuine reason why he would invite me to his home. He sent me the address instead of coming to pick me up.I can't believe Tony is kneeling. I am dumbfounded. I can't blink, breathe, or think of anything. I know what is happening but I ask myself if I am ready for this. If I am ready, how do I deal with the secret eating me up?

    Zayden's POVBelle once told me that I had problems with my emotions and now I know what she said is true. I have difficulties figuring out what I feel most times, whether happy or sad, satisfied or not, fulfilled or not, and most especially whether it is true that I am in love with Belle.I used to wonder how an actor and an actress who are enemies always end up falling in love with each other. I used to feel it was unreal and what we watch on TV isn't real. I used to think marriage is a bed of thorns and doesn't have to be based on love or loyalty and trust but now I know better.Now I know what I feel. Now I admit the problems I am having with my emotions. Now I know the value of what I have before I will lose it. I have realized she was sent to break through the walls I built around my heart, she has been pushing to enter all to no avail.
