VanessaHonk! Honk!!"Just a minute!" I yelled.I chuckled softly and shook my head as I realized that my voice would be barely heard, my phone rang and I picked up the call and placed it on a loudspeaker as I was busy rummaging through my wardrobe."Leo.." I drawled."Vanessa, what's taking you so long to get ready?" Leo complained."I'm sorry and I'm almost ready, I'll be out in five minutes." I promised."You said that twenty minutes ago and you're still in the house." Leo retorted.I laughed softly."I'm sorry, I promise I'll be out soon, I'm hanging up." I joked lightly."You better look prettier than the goddess of beauty herself else I'll offer you to the gods as a burnt sacrifice in exchange for five more minutes." He teased me.I hissed and hung up on him. "Yes!" I jubilated as I found the perfect dress.It was a short plain blue gown with no designs at all which made it unique, it hugged my body and accentuated my slender figure and complimented my skin tone which made it mo
Vanessa:Let's go, Vanessa, the outing is over." He said monotonously.I didn't utter a word and simply got into the car, I watched as Damien stared at us helplessly and Leo got into the car."Let's go home." He said, quietly.He ignited the car engine and began to drive, all through the drive he didn't utter a word neither did he look at me."Are you okay?" I asked, worriedly.No answer."Your knuckles are bleeding." I pointed out.No answer."Leonard."No answer.I sighed and kept to myself, everything that happened was still a shock to me and I decided not to push the matter any further. When we got back home he didn't say a word either and just went straight to the guest room. He wasn't a guest in the house and he knew his way around. I followed him and saw him get into the bathroom.It was my cue to leave and I went back to my room, took a cold bath to wash down the memories of what happened, and probably talked to Leo and have everything figured out. I changed into a more comfor
Vanessa: I woke up the next morning feeling groggy and tired. Sleeping lete was never a food idea for me.I dragged myself out of bed, jumped into the shower and in less than thirty minutes, I was dressed in a t-shirt and jeans trousers, ready to go home.My parents were back from their trip and I needed to go and welcome them properly. Besides, it was high time I gave Leo the space he deserved in his home. I had spent a total of two days with him and thought it was high time I left even though I really didn't want to.As I arranged my things in the suitcase, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss and longing. If I was being honest, I quite enjoyed being around Leo. He was funny and sweet and accommodating. I didn't feel suffocated in his presence nor did I feel the need to run away from him regardless of his confession last night.Letting out a sigh, I picked up my bag as soon as I was done and exited the room.I was already downstairs when Leo intercepted me. He was wearing a polo
KimberlyI stood up from my bed, done with the breakfast that Ethan had made me and stepped into the shower, I turned it on and savored the cascade of water down my back. The only other that would have made this perfect was Ethan in here with me.As soon as I finished bathing, I exited the shower only to get a call from the investigator I'd hired a while back. I picked up the phone on the third ring and placed it on my ear."Hello,""Hello Kimberly, meet me at Saint cafe, there's something you should know.""Alright, sure, I'll be there." I said in response before hanging up and entering my closet to find something to wear.I dressed myself up in a cute pink sweater and black bell bottom jeans with my hair curled up into a ponytail. Silver jewelry adorned my neck, wrist and ankles.I wanted to get to the cafe as fast as possible so I drove myself there without informing Ethan iof where I was going. He'd ask too many questions and probably even follow me and I didn't want that. He worri
Kimberly:As soon as I got home, I discarded my bag and plopped down on my bed, my hand on my head.What on earth had the private investigator been talking about? Nothing he'd said throughout the meeting made any sense no matter how I looked at it.How can Ethan be responsible for my parents' car crash? That made no sense. This wasn't some action movie, wouldn't the truck driver be in danger too if he had orchestrated the accident?Why was he even thinking about this? It didn't make any sense not just because I knew Ethan would never do such a thing but because the evidence my investigator had was more than negligible.He didn't expect me to just believe whatever bullshit he had to say, did he?Was I supposed to believe that a man wearing a hoodie and talking to the truck driver was Ethan?Granted, he had more or less the same build as Ethan from behind but that was not enough evidence, it wasn't nearly enough proof.I let out a frustrated sigh. I had thought he'd found something only
Ethan:The weight of the day's labor dragged at my heels as I stepped into the dimly lit foyer of our home. My eyes, heavy with fatigue, scanned the familiar surroundings, searching for a sign of Kimberly. Her absence was a gaping hole in the usual hustle of our home, and I was met with an unsettling silence in response to my call to her.I made my way to the security desk, where the guard's eyes lifted in acknowledgment. 'Has Kimberly returned yet?' I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, hoping for a different answer than the one I expected. The guard shook his head, his expression a mix of sympathy and bewilderment.'No, sir. She left earlier today and hasn't come back.'My heart sank as I reached for my phone, the screen's glow casting an eerie light on my worried face. I dialed Kimberly's number, but it went straight to voicemail. Her phone was off, and I couldn't track her location through the app we used. Panic began to claw at my insides as I realized she was truly missing.I
Kimberly:"Murderer? What one bloody earth are you talking about Kimberly?" Ethan asked, a confused look on his face."You know exactly what I'm talking about, don't fucking pretend. I know you murdered my parents, Ethan."I spat, anger and bitterness spilling from every part of my body.I hated him so much at that moment, It was almost tangible."What on earth?... How on earth did you get information like that?" He asked, a surprised look on his chiseled face."Why does it matter? So you can kill that person too?" I asked, staring him down.Several kinds of expressions crossed his face as he tried to figure out what I was talking about.I knew he was doing all of this for the show.There was no way he didn't know what I was talking about. He murdered my parents in cold blood and he just didn't want me to know about it."Look Kimberly, I have no idea who's filling your head with all of this nonsense but I assure you what you are saying is complete nonsense. The fact that we are having
Ethan:I watched her drive out of the driveway and I could do nothing about it. Who fucking gave her that information and why would she believe them.I put a call through Axel as I walked into the mansion, he picked up the first ring and I went ahead sending my orders.“The man Kimberly has been meeting for a while, at the cafe downtown? I want you to find him and bring him to me.” I ordered angrily. My body was tense and I was in no way happy about my new findings and Kimberly leaving the house like she hadn’t known me all her life. Fuck everything thing was getting messed up. I got into my room, changed, and got ready to leave for the creed. I had a lot of things to do there and I also needed to understand what was happening.As I ascended the stairs, my phone rang out loud and I got a call from Axel.“Sir, he’s a private investigator and detective. I have sent a file regarding his history and information to you.”“Okay. Send it to Tony, I want him to fetch him for me.” I ordered.
Author: 6 years later."Happy birthday to you!" Everyone chorused as Kimberly and her twin sons celebrated their fifth birthday."Now blow out your candles!" Ethan said.His sons were an exact copy of him. Black hair, blue eyes, and perfect bone structure.Ethan was bursting with pride as he watched his sons blow off their birthday candles.A round of applause exploded from the attendees and Fredrick and Ethan yelled out a hurrah!Kurt and Klaus ran up to them. They were both now ten years old and they were cute and they all took pictures Ethan watched from the sidelines as his sons played with Nessa's sonHe never thought they'd both be here. His eyes drifted towards Kimberly. Her stomach was already protruding.She was pregnant with another set of twins and somehow she looked more beautiful than ever.Ethan walked up to her and collected the tray of snacks she was bringing to the kids."I told you to sit still, babe."He said to his wife. It was amazing how stubborn she'd gotten
Kimberly:"She's going to be okay," I patted Leo on the back as we waited in the hallway of the hospital that smelt too much like disinfectant and blood for news on Vanessa."I know, I know. But the doctor said it was supposed to be normal, why does she have to undergo surgery?"Leo asked, his eyes tired and teary."He didn't say she was undergoing surgery, he said she might have to. Meaning there's also a possibility that she won't have to. Understand?"I asked, trying my best to reassure him that it was all going to be okay.He nodded, trying to hold back the tears.I would think he was cute if Vanessa's life wasn't on the line now.He'd run out from the labor room, unable to watch his wife crying in pain ten minutes ago and ever since, he'd not been able to go back inside."Hey man, relax. Everything is going to work out!" Ethan came to stand beside him.Leo nodded and mouthed an inaudible thank you."You are welcome. Just relax. She and the baby are going to be fine." Ethan said,
Vanessa:I couldn't believe I was getting married!I screamed internally as I twirled around, checking out my wedding dress in Ernest's fascination.It was my exact dream wedding gown. Leo had made sure he gave me my dream wedding. From my wedding dress to flowers to the reception.I stared at the beautiful lace bodice and corset of my gown. It was styled by a famous designer in France to my exact taste and extra details that just worked. The gown was a princess ball gown at the bottom and I wore white gloves that made me look like I was straight out of a Cinderella story.I never thought I'd be this happy getting married but here I was…The door to my private quarters opened and Kimberly came barrelling in looking every bit of gorgeous. She was wearing a baby pink dress, one that we'd both chosen for her as the chief bridesmaid. It was a mermaid dress with a halter neck."Sorry it took so long, Ethan wouldn't let go of me but I got it!" She said handing over the huge bouquet of scent
Kimberly:Watching Uncle Greyson get sentenced to a hundred years without parole had to be the greatest day of my life. Better than when I was handed back my company.We'd gotten evidence that he'd been responsible for my father and mother's death. At that moment, you had wanted to beat his face in for turning me into an Alpha simply because of some misguided sibling rivalry.My grandfather had rejected Uncle Greyson as his son many years ago, saying he couldn't accept a child from a hooker. Uncle Greyson had been determined to prove his father wrong. He'd gotten wealth but he'd always wanted to prove that he was a true Fredrick and had killed my father to inherit the family business but my name had already been written in the will as the sole owner of my father's estate. It had sent him into a blinding rage and had also tried to kill me but had failed."He's finally gone forever," Ethan rasped, pulling me into a tight hug that would have shattered my bones if I had fragile bones.I s
Two months later.Kimberly:“Scared?" Vanessa's voice echoed as I stared out the window, anger taking over me."Fear is not an emotion I acknowledge anymore.*I shrugged."You sound ridiculously like Batman." Nessa joked, I glanced over at her and gave her entire black outfit an appraisal.She looked gorgeous in her black corseted gown and her brown locks pulled up into chignon like she was straight out of a BDSM club."We should start getting ready to leave," I said, not bothering to acknowledge her little joke.Today was going to be a very special day, it was why I was wearing all black after all. It was why Tony and Axel were dressed in complete black too.I tried not to let my emotions show.Not one bit."Okay," she sobered up and quickly plucked her purse from the plush sofa.I led her downstairs and got into the car with Tony and Axel in the back seat."Ready?" Tony asked, staring at me through the side mirror, his usually cold gaze, carrying in them a little sympathy.I nodded
Leo:As soon as we stepped into the room I wrapped my arms around her. I press my lips against hers and force them open, I deepen our kiss until she is moaning into my mouth and my cock stiffens.My hands roam her body, the need to touch her skin makes my skin burn. I shoved her on the bed and straddled her. I took a moment to look at her, she looked beautiful, she looked like...mine.I ran my hands down her face and watched as she closed her eyes and leaned into my hands. Moved to her neck where I could feel her pulse thrumming against her skin."Fuck, the things I want to do to you", I whispered as I begin to tug on the little crop top she wore that has been taunting me with the outline of her hardened nipples, I grazed my hands on her nipples and watch as she shudders, the top came off with a fast tug making her breast jiggle, " fuck Vanessa no bra?, You had no bra on?" I swore.She sheepishly looked up at me, her nipples were hard as fuck, and they pointed right at me I bent my h
Leo:I watched as Vanessa practically jumped out of her seat and ran into my arms with the force of an elephant, knocking the air out of my chestI couldn't believe she'd come!"You came," I breathed, holding her tight in my embrace as if letting her go would be the end of my life. I dotted kisses around her face and found her lips, claiming into with a burning passion that ignited a feral part of me. The softness of her lips, the intoxicating feel of her hands tightening around me and the time I had waited to kiss her like this all sent a delicious sensation down my spine.I felt like crying but I wasn't about to embarrass myself in public.She broke the kiss reluctantly, gazing into my eyes as if she was trying to convince herself I was real and not just some figment of my imagination."I'm sorry," she said, her grip tightening around me like she was afraid I'd fly away if I let go of her."I thought you'd gone," she said with teary eyes, her tiny fist jabbing my chest."Yes, I was
Vanessa:As the Uber driver pulled up in Leo's driveway, I practically flew out of the car and towards Leo's apartment, my body dotted with goosebumps.I pounded on the door with balled hands, my heart threatening to burst out of my chest with fear and every emotion there was in the book.I heard shuffling from behind the door and I braced myself to speak to him.It was 10.30 am and I was hoping he was still around. If not, I wouldn't know what to do with myself.The door creaked open to reveal a blonde girl. The same girl that I had seen with Leo the other night. I felt a pang of jealousy and anger in less than a second as I sized her up. Why would Leo invite me over when…I didn't finish my thought process before I was interrupted by the girl's squeaky voice."Nessa right? Hi, I'm Leah," she extended her hands for me to shake. "Where's Leo?" I cut her off, uninterested in what she had to say."He's gone to the airport. He left twenty minutes ago. He waited for you." She said, ret
Ethan:I waited patiently at a few houses from Greyson Inc. as Mr. Chase snuck into the building later that night and into Greyson's office to get me the evidence I needed to bring Greyson's reign and empire down.I watched him through my phone as he opened his computer and inserted the flash drive into the USB port, searching for some files. He paused at a hidden folder titled "Junkies" and began to transfer everything into the flash drive.I waited with bated breath as he did. Making sure I was also watching the security cameras of the building we'd managed to tap into. After what felt like hours, Chase ejected the flash drive and took it out.I watched as he snuck out of the office and took the elevator, I could practically hear his heart beating through my phone."Drive Tony," I commanded and Tony did, stopping in front of Chase."Get in the car," I opened the door and Chase practically flew into the car."Where is it?" I asked, my hands outstretched to Chase."Here," he handed
