"Sir, they are here," Flora heard the police officer uttering who had taken them to the police station. They both stepped inside the door and saw an officer sitting on the main chair of a table. He looked like the head of the officers here. The head officer snapped his eyes at both of them and scanned both of them keenly. "Have your seats," he stated, gesturing towards the chairs in front of him. Tilting her head, Flora looked at him and found his grey eyes already on her. By looking at his face, she could clearly sense that he was feeling nervous and afraid after finding themselves in a situation like this. Flora sighed and then grabbed his palm in an assuring manner. Her wordless action told him that she was with him and she was never going to leave him alone in a situation like this. He held back her hand and it didn't go unnoticed by the head officer. With their intertwined hands, they walked towards the table and sat in front of the head officer. "Thank you for your coopera
"Ain't you taking advantage of being Flora Riccardo Alfanso?" He questioned her again.Flora noticed a look of discontent on his face as he asked her that thing, like her behaviour had irked him. Fully turned around to face him, she walked towards him and stood in front of him. She had to push her head upward to look at him in his eyes as they had quite a difference in their heights.Lifting her hands up, she wrapped her arms around his burly waist. "Does this make me a bad person?" She asked him, peering into his grey eyes. He saw her lips puckering out whereas her round wide eyes were filled with sadness. He understood she didn't want him to think bad of her and his opinion about her genuinely mattered to her.A smile broke out on his face at her reaction which made him raise his hands to wrap them around her neck. Slanting his head down, he took a closer view of her eyes."Nothing can make you a bad person, Ora," he told her, smiling. His words successfully created a big and wide
"Ms., the owner of this phone got into an accident, so the car's driver has taken him to the nearby hospital," "What?" Flora sounded in total disbelief because her heart didn't want to believe that something bad had happened to him. "Yes, it's nearer the city's bus station where this accident has happened and the car's driver has taken the boy to the hospital and I think in rush, the boy dropped his phone on the road, so I picked it up and decided to call someone and your number was the last number he has dialled, so I called you," Flora heard that woman notifying her which paced up her already throbbing heart more. "Which hospital? Can you please tell where the driver has taken him?" She asked, desperately. The lady told her the address. "Okay…okay thank you so much," Flora hung up the call and hurriedly stepped down from the bed. "Flora, what happened?" Bellyana asked, witnessing Flora's panicked self. "Aunty, my friend, Easton. He got into an accident. The car's driver ha
"These are your medicines. Don't forget to take them,"Flora placed the packet of medicines in front of him on the bed which the doctor had prescribed him for his wounds. He looked at her, who was sitting on his bed. They had just reached his place."You are not feeling pain anywhere, right?" She asked him, finally darting her eyes at him from the medicines. He witnessed that extreme amount of concern and worry in her eyes for him. A smile crept on his face."I wonder what you would have done to that driver if he would have killed me?" He teased her. Her gaze narrowed at his words but somehow, it pained her heart a lot just with the mere thought of what if something would have happened to him and she would have lost him forever. That thought shivered her heart in fear."Just like I had announced before I would have fucking ripped his eyes out and then would have cut his body's pieces and fed it to crows," she told him, scowling. He chuckled, hearing her."But the last time I remember
"I said no, Flora," Flora shut her mouth completely as soon as she heard those words of his and the raised tone he had used with her. That was the first time she witnessed him raising his voice at her and gazing at her with that coldness in his eyes and she didn't know why but it affected her a lot. It hurted her. Flora was not a sensitive hearted person but after her father, he was the only man whose mere tone of voice was bothering her to such an extent.He witnessed her entire facial features filled with gloominess and her shining orbs dimmed. She looked down and exhaled a soft breath.He found her getting up on her feet. He followed her action too and stood beside her. He noticed she had stopped looking at him completely. "Take your medicines on time. I will see you tomorrow on campus," she said to him, looking at everything and everywhere, except for him.After that, she turned around to leave. Flora had just taken a step away from him when she found his arms getting wrapped ar
"Uncle Dario," Flora's eyes widened in shock. She turned aghast by seeing her uncle Dario in front of her. First, she thought she was hallucinating but when she witnessed her uncle Dario's eyes shifting away from her to Easton, she came back to her senses. Flora immediately pulled back herself because they both had been still sitting in that same position where anyone could guess that they both were about to kiss each other. Extremely embarrassed, she stood up on her feet and walked towards her uncle. "Uncle, you here?" She asked but noticed his eyes were on Easton who was still standing on his place with his half naked body and his shirt on his hand. Flora's cheeks burnt up in embarrassment. She couldn't even imagine what her uncle might be thinking of them by finding them in that state. "Uncle, it's not like…. I…I was just trying to help him," Flora tried to clarify. Her uncle Dario finally darted his eyes at her and noticed that embarrassment on her face. "I know, Flora. You
"He is not Armando Zelvasco," Flora told her uncle, keeping her eyes fixed on the dark night sky. She also had that suspicion on him because in a very short period of time, he was getting extremely close to her which could result in extreme harm to her, so she needed to be careful and Flora never stopped using her head while thinking with her heart."And how are you so sure about it?" She heard her uncle asking her which made her sigh sharply. Looking away from the gloomy sky, she looked at her uncle."He didn't have that scar which you have found about Armando Zelvasco's identity," she said to him. "And you might have noticed it too," Dario wagged his head, hearing her words."I did, Flora but that doesn't prove that he is not him or he is not someone associated with him," Dario uttered, handling the steering wheel. Flora breathed out, firmly."I have given him perfect chances to attack me or kill me but he didn't even try to harm me. Instead he saved me everytime I put myself in d
"Niley?" Flora uttered, sitting on her bed. Her brows arched in confusion as she saw that visible tension and fear on Niley's face. "Niley, what happened? Come inside," Flora said and in return found Niley sighing heavily and then she stepped inside her room. "Are you alright?" Niley asked, sitting beside Flora on the bed. Flora witnessed that extreme amount of terror engulfing her eyes which turned her more bewildered. Why was she looking so afraid and of what?"Niley, are you alright?" Flora questioned her, while placing her palm over Niley's hand. Flora could clearly sense that something was bothering her really badly because they both were childhood friends, so she knew her really well.Flora saw Niley breathing out firmly before she placed her palm over hers and then clutched it."I heard aunty Bella and uncle Riccardo talking on the phone that you have gone out at this time of the night and this could result in a very big harm to you. That's why I got worried and I couldn't st
“Once again, happy birthday, Eara,” “Thank you, granny grandpa,” Eara said to her grandpa Dario and granny Niova while sitting on her mother's lap. She was video chatting with them inside the car as they were heading to her birthday party venue which was N.R…Alfanso. “Bye…. enjoy your evening, my little princess. Bye,” Niova said to Eara and then looked at Flora. She nodded at Flora softly and then hung up the call. Flora sighed, heavily. After losing their daughter, Noelle, her uncle Dario and aunty Niova shifted to another country and they both also barely visited here and everyone could clearly understand why. “They are fine?” Niley asked, who was also present in that car with Flora, Easton and her husband, Kester. Flora nodded at her and then looked at Niley and Kester’s one year old daughter, Neser, who was peacefully sleeping in her mother's lap. Flora beamed at her. “Eara, don't wake her up…baby. Look, your baby sis is sleeping,” Flora said to her daughter who was trying
“Happy Birthday, Eara….” That tiny 3 year old girl opened her doe eyes, hearing that voice and a smile formed on her face, seeing her parents and grandparents. Giggling, she clapped her hands which made everyone chuckle. Smiling, Flora picked her three year old daughter, Eara, in her arms and kissed her cheek. “Happiest birthday to my baby,” she wished her. Tittering, the little girl hugged her mother. “Thank you so much, momma,” she said. “Happy birthday to my Eara,” Easton uttered, kissing the tip of his daughter's tiny nose. Ears giggled and kissed her father's cheek. “Thank you, papa,” “It's our turn now,” Aniya said, making Flora and Easton smile. Riccardo took his granddaughter in his arms and kissed her forehead. “Happy birthday, my little buddy,” he wished her. It felt like he was holding his tiny Ora in his arms because Eara just looked like her mother in her childhood. Cute and bubblish. Eara smiled and hugged her grandfather tightly. “Thank you, grandpa…” she kiss
“Ethan, stop running and come here,” Flora shouted while running behind her 4 years old toddler who was just little in his age and height but when it came to running, he could defeat athlete runners.“ETHAN….” Flora yelled out of her lungs but instead of getting scared by his mother's shouting, the little boy continued to run all around their house. “Ethan, come here. I am warning you,”The little boy giggled, hearing his mother and started circling around the dining table. By now Flora's stamina had started giving up on her. She stopped and grabbed her waist and saw her tiny trouble maker laughing at her.“Momma, you need to drink milk to become strong like me,” the little boy showed his non-existent muscles to his mother which made Flora narrow her eyes at him. Of course, he was going to advise her to drink milk when she gave him this same lecture about drinking milk regularly.“You…wait,” Flora ran towards him but Ethan again dashed away from there but this time he got bumped agai
“You love troubling me, don't you, mi alma?” That huskily deep voice and those words of her abductor filled Noelle's tummy with tingles. She felt his warm mouth giving a soft suck on her tender lips and with no second thoughts in her head, she let that warmth engulfed her entirely because that warmth belonged to the love of her life, her best friend, her soulmate…her Rican.After pecking her lips, he pulled back and let his dark brown hues get stuck over her ethereal light blue ones. Those eyes of hers which he was insanely in love with since he was a child. He tried to kiss her again but Noelle stopped him by cupping his mouth.“And what do you think you are doing, Mr Rican Alfanso?” she sent him a tiny glare which filled his gaze with amusement. Holding her wrist, he slightly pulled away her palm from his mouth only to kiss her in between her palms delicately. He was just not only irrevocably in love with her but he was obsessed with desiring and cherishing her too in every possible
“Congratulations, you are pregnant,” Flora was completely shaken after hearing those words from her doctor. She was pregnant. Her heart froze, both in thrill and nervousness. She was pregnant.“Come to my clinic tomorrow for some basic check-ups of your and your baby's health. Take care,” the doctor's words snapped her out of her shock. “O…okay. Thank you,” Flora stuttered and then hung up the call. Niley's brows furrowed in confusion, seeing that unusual reaction on Flora's face. She was looking like her doctor had caused a spell on her through her phone. “Hey! What happened?” Niley asked but Flora didn't answer. She continued to look at her phone. Scowling, Niley shook Flora's shoulder and she finally looked at her.“What happened?” Niley questioned her again. Flora blinked before finally parting her mouth to answer her.“The doctor said I…I am p…pregnant,” she uttered while stuttering and her words widened Niley's eyes but before Niley could say anything, that voice resonated.
Flora was completely confused by seeing that little kid with Kester and the very first thing which appeared in her head was who was that little boy and why he was with Kester.Flora noticed that the kid turned a bit afraid as soon as he witnessed those strangers around him. He tried to hide himself behind Kester in fear.“Cain, don't be afraid. They all are going to be your friends,” Flora heard Kester telling that kid and the way he was talking to that little boy, it made Flora suspicious of a very big thing. Was it Kester's son? If it was then it was something startling for Flora as she was not aware of this even slightly.Kester held the little boy's hand and then brought him forward.“Don't worry. They all are going to be your buddies,” Kester uttered to the kid which made the kid look at all those strangers in front of him until his doe emerald eyes caught a familiar face.“Uncle E…Easton,” the little boy stuttered, focusing his eyes on Easton which made Easton smile. He walked t
Flora saw him getting in front of her father and then he stood in front of him which paused the beating of her heart because she had no clue of what he was going to do or say to her father at this point. She had never seen her father and him exchanging any kind of words with each other and that thing had started worrying her a lot, especially when she was aware of their not so good relations and thoughts about each other.Holding her heart, she was peering at them and even the lightened up surrounding had tensed up with those two men getting face-to-face with each other until….“I am sincerely remorseful for the harm I have caused to you and your family, Mr Alfanso,” he uttered and his words startled everyone, including Flora. So he was wanting to apologise to her father and family.“Getting completely blinded by my hatred for you, I continued to harm and hurt you and your family but the truth was none of you ever deserved any of it,” he sounded genuinely guilty which was reflecting i
Next morning, Flora woke up from her beautifully peaceful sleep with the tender rays of light falling on her face. She slowly opened her lashes only to find those alluring grey eyes peering down at her. Those eyes which had trapped her very existence in them. A soft blush crept on her face because she didn't know for how long he had been staring at her while she was sleeping like a little tired baby. He saw her cheeks turning pink whereas she darted her gaze down at his chest.“Staring at someone like this while they are sleeping is considered creepy, Mr Marzel?” She taunted him while peering at his naked chest. They both were completely uncovered under that blanket and their bare bodies were also grazing against each other, turning everything more intimidating for her, especially after when her head continued to repeat what had happened between them last night and how he kept her awake more than half of the night last night.A smirk formed on his face, hearing her words. Leaning hi
Flora's heart tingled as soon as she felt him pressing his warm lips against her. Without having any second thoughts, she kissed him back while wrapping her arms around his neck.Feeling her soft and delicate lips getting captured into his mouth, he finally realised how badly he had been missing them all this time. He was restlessly needing to feel, touch and taste that tenderness of hers because only she was capable of calming that sheer desperation inside him which he felt when it came to her only.Their lips were beautifully devouring each other, having no urgency to care about the rest of the world. He softly nibbled on her lower lip which made her slightly open her mouth. He entered his tongue inside her mouth and as soon as she felt their tongues touching each other, Flora softly moaned which made him pull her more closer.He made sure to press her entire body against his, leaving no inch of distance between their bodies. Flora grabbed his hair when he cupped her nape to deepen
