Hey. I need 2 days off to write Aiden's POV. However, if you want me to change my mind then please give reviews on the main page. ;-) (The request is only from those who haven't done that yet.) Hope you all are liking it, readers. B-bye.
(Flashback: Aiden pov) Moving to a new place is always challenging for kids especially if they are in their teens. I moved here along with my grandpa who had been living with me when I lost my parents. The neighborhood looked so gloomy and gray. It all was so boring until I saw her. It was the second day after our move. Peeking out of my window, I found her talking to a guy. Her wavy hair was flowing softly in the breeze and due to being a plus size, the most prominent thing on her body was her ass. And then she turned around laughingly, and I gasped in shock. Though it had started getting dark, all I could see was the most beautiful girl and a boy who was trying so hard to impress her. Her laughter had something that made me smile like a fool. But then… something strange happened. That guy held her face and started kissing her. I didn’t like it. All I wanted to do was punch down that guy and push him away. Leaving the curtain, I stepped away from the window. How dare he? I
(Flashback: Aiden pov) That would be an understatement, If I would say, I was heartbroken. No girl attracted me this much in my life like Elara did. Vicky started visiting me daily on the soccer field. She used to talk about her aspirations, and her goals in life, and the only thing that used to grab my attention was when Elara’s name used to slip off her tongue. However, it used to happen quite rarely. We were becoming friends and I started feeling like she used to like me. Every time I used to look at Elara and every fuc*ing time Noah was glued to her hip. What if Vicky was making things up? What if she was lying about Noah and Elara? Thinking to myself, I decided to give it a shot and go to Elara. I needed to talk to her myself and tell her how I felt for her. Looking for her, I went to the café. The break time was over, and students were already leaving the place in small groups. I spotted them seated in the corner of the café. Elara was feeding him a fry and he was tiltin
(Aiden pov)When I got consciousness, I could feel nothing but darkness around me. There was no light, and I could hear someone sniffing his nose close by.“Wh…who is this? Where am I? Elara?”I tried to squeeze my eyes to look through the darkness, but it didn’t work. Why wasn’t I able to see anything?“Aiden!” A teary voice spoke near my ear, “At last you are awake, son. You are back?” I felt him kissing the back of my hand. “Grandpa” Are you… are you crying?”But he couldn’t answer that due to the sudden interruption of doctors and nurses.“Grandpa!” I panicked and raised my hand, “I am right here son. Everything will be fine. You just have a bandage around your eyes. You will be able to see once your eyelids start healing.”Grandpa knew what I must be thinking.The doctors checked me and started poking needles in my skin. I didn’t respond because there was someone else on my mind.“Grandpa. Is someone else is here?” I asked him, hoping, that he would tell me about Elara.“Yes, s

Aiden’s pov: I was fuc*king right. When I reached the school hallway Vicky was trying to hit her. Thankfully I reached there on time. Elara didn’t take a minute to leave the place. We walked to the parking lot when Vicky hugged me and started crying, “Please don’t do this to me. I’ll die without you.” I was trying to push her, but she was clinging to me. “Stop it, Vicky. Stop begging him,” we both turned when we heard Noah behind us. The poor champ was trying to control his anger. I still couldn’t understand what Elara saw in him. “Why? Why should I stop begging him? All I want is his love. Nothing else but his love.” “Look at me. Do you think I am happy about this?” They both were talking as if I was not there anymore. They were treating me like an invisible. “Can you two please stop it? Elara doesn’t have a hand in this. Even I can’t do much. For God's sake, we are just eighteen and nineteen, dependent on our elders.” Vicky’s tears were so much like crocodile ones. To tel
“Dear Elara. I made so many mistakes and failed to trust you. But today I promise while holding your hand that…” his voice trailed off when he tried to control his tears. Still, a droplet did manage to escape his eyelid,“That from today onwards you will get nothing but my respect, trust, and love. I swear …” he wiped his cheek and could see her eyes glistening too.“I swear I won’t repeat the mistakes and will listen to you. I will try to be a better companion and a best friend for you and our kids.”Elara looked at him solemnly, “Aiden. Today I vow to be a better wife and a better partner to you. No matter how hard life gets, I promise to support you and stand by your side in your difficult and good times. No matter what the situation is. You will always find me beside you. Today I vow to fill your home with love, laughter, and warmth.”She pursed her lips tightly getting all emotional.They both had zoned out until the priest’s gentle voice brought them back into the present, “Aiden
They spent their weekend making love and getting to know each other both intimately and emotionally. It had been shocking to both of them, how they were always in love with each other but could never express it.How they were manipulated by Noah and Vicky.Elara didn’t agree with Noah manipulating them. There was a part of her that didn’t want to accept what Noah tried to do to her.“So, you still trust him?” Aiden asked popping a strawberry in her mouth. They both were sitting on the floor leaning to the bed.She was wrapped in the sheets with no clothes underneath and he was just wearing a boxer.“I don’t think he is that much clever.” Elara bobbed her head. Aiden held a red hair strand from her forehead and touched it to his nostrils to take a whiff. “Oh. So now you think mister Noah hasn’t got any brains?” he mocked, and she had to slap his arm. In response, he drew her closer to him, “He does have brains but… I think Vicky manipulated him. Just like she did it to us.” She trie
“Do you hate me?” Aiden asked his son who was sitting quietly on his lap. The little boy seemed shocked by his dad’s question,“I never hated you, Dad. Why would I want a person to find Mommy if I disliked him?”“Hmm. Then I hope next time you won’t send the wrong location to misguide me next time?” Aiden asked him, referring to the location Sebastian sent when he was looking for Elara. It had led him to the Octavia's bakery.Sebastian had a sheepish smile on his face when his father mentioned that, “I am sorry. I was just a little angry. I had seen Mom crying when she thought we were sleeping. The moment I got the tab, the first thing I did was look for you.”Aiden rested his son's head under his chin and closed his eyes. His son had at last forgiven him. Aiden never got a chance to see his own folks. He didn't want his kids to lead a life without either of their parents. “Are you with mommy because of us?” Sebastián asked him innocently. “No, son. I am with her because I love her.
(3 years later)The Dubai Airport was buzzing with travelers. Mommies and daddies were running after small kids, honeymoon couples were busy taking their selfies, and the suited men were ready to take their next flight after a small transit.“Daddy! Zoe is again poking her finger in my neck,” Seven-year-old Sebastian tried to dodge his sister with a playful grin who was now coming to ruffle his hair. Aiden looked over his shoulder and found the nannies walking behind him, holding the tiny hands of two-year-old triplet boys.It was a much-needed trip for his family. His beloved wife needed a break. While managing kids and home, she had been busy expanding her business by opening franchises throughout Kanderton.The last three years had been the best time of his life. He spent his childhood without his parents or any siblings and now he was the head of a big family. With six kids and Elara Lockwood by his side, his family was complete. “I hope you didn’t take a hasty decision when you
Elara wasn’t ready to detach her lips from Aiden’s mouth and he was an equal participant in the kiss. Genelia ushered the guests politely out of the conference room.She had a small smile when she closed the door behind her.“Mrs. Lockwood seems quite emotional,” one of the guests remarked. Genelia who was a bit worried that they might remark on the unprofessionalism of the boss nodded her head with a smile.“I am happy that you didn’t make it an issue.”“Why would we? Aiden Lockwood is lucky to have such a lovely wife by his side.” They talked good-naturedly about it and then headed to ‘Lemons and Tarts’ for some more gingerbread.***“Honey,” Aiden tried to speak between the kisses, she was showering on his mouth and face. Her lips had gotten pink during the constant kissing.“Cupcake!”“Shhh. Let me taste you some more, Aiden.” She said holding his face. Aiden closed his eyes and took a long sigh. He couldn’t wait to go home and make love to her.He could feel her hands all over hi
Unknown person’s pov:We were extremely poor. We were so poor that all I and my family could manage were the meals that mostly consisted of bread and water.We used to dip bread pieces in water because sometimes it used to be so stale and hard that we could not chew it without dipping it in water.We couldn’t even afford coffee and soups in the winter season. All we could do to avoid cold was hot water. Once there was nothing at home except a few slices of bread and I had to control my hunger to let my siblings feed on it. My stepfather ditched us when I was too small. Mom struggled a lot to keep our tummies filled. She used to work at a bar and could only manage to pay rent and once-a-day meal. We were five siblings. I was the eldest and the illegitimate one. According to my mom, my father was her first love. They were in love and wanted to marry young but then my father met an accident and could never know that I existed in my mom’s tummy.Then she met my stepfather who used to p
After four hours of transit at Dubai Airport, Vicky was now boarding the next plane to Germany. She took out her phone to switch it off when it pinged.An email from Aiden.She opened it and found a document.“What is it?” She clicked the document murmuring to herself and then gasped in excitement.It was the divorce decree. He had signed the divorce papers. Elara was again divorced. Yay!She couldn’t contain her happiness and dialed his number.His phone was not responding. He must be on the plane.She then dialed Meer’s number.“Hey. Can you connect me to Aiden?” she just wanted to check if Aiden was serious with her or playing some kind of sick joke.“Hey, Vicky. Where are you? What about the contracts you worked so hard for? You didn’t even bother to send an email for your sick leave.”She could detect the frustration in his voice.“Yeah. I am sorry, Meer. But my question is still unanswered. Where is Aiden?”“I don’t know, man. His family is also worried for him. He hasn’t come
Vicky was quickly packing her stuff including her cash, jewelry, some gemstones, and very few dresses. Aiden could always buy her new clothes as he had gotten a great taste.She needed to get out of here before Greyson’s men could reach her. Jack’s wife had gone crazy and had threatened her that she would never spare Vicky. Taking a last look around, Vicky sighed in tension. Though Aiden was with her she could not take a relieved sigh, until she landed on German soil.“I hope this is the last time I am escaping from a place,” she murmured with frustration and wheeled out her compact suitcase.She came out of the modern apartment building and stood out waiting for Aiden.“Honey. You should have waited for my call,” Aiden said placing her small luggage in the car trunk.“I just wanted to get out of here,” she said a little desperately. “I understand. Don’t worry. You are safe with me. It’s just that… we can’t take risks.” Aiden clasped the seat belt around him and inhaled a heavy brea
Vicky Barone’s pov continues: Like a perfect gentleman, Aiden owned the baby. He promised to man up for taking up the responsibility of the baby. Being a well-raised guy, he left Elara so that she could build her future too. He was never expecting that she was pregnant and would attempt to run away. Neither was I. She proved to be more daring than my expectations. Collin Greyson was a powerful man, and he was looking for me like a hawk. I wanted to hide behind Aiden but the hunger for power and to take over his office was growing inside me. The revenge I wanted to take from Edmund was burning fire inside me… To get the contracts, I started using men to my advantage. First, it was Mr. Wendell, the fake one. Then the real one. And then Mr. Jack. All was going well until his wife walked in. I had to run for my life and sacrifice those contracts. Thankfully Aiden didn’t get mad at me. But I was sure he must be upset. Then one fine day Jack’s wife walked into my office and got
Vicky Barone's POV:Ah! You all know me already. I’m Vicky. Vicky Barone. The most beautiful and most gorgeous girl in high school. Boys used to run after me. And the moment I met Elara, I wanted to be her friend.Why? Because she was fat, and I needed someone to feel superior. The school was full of all the hot shots. It was not easy to impress anyone with money. So, I thought why not Elara?She wasn’t rich. She was the daughter of a gardener. No one would even bother to throw a second glance at her except Noah. But later Noah told me that he just liked her as a friend.He never had any intention to develop a romantic relationship with her. And then that hot hunk made his entry into our lives. The one and only.Aiden Lockwood. The handsome. The hottest.I saw the way girls were falling for him when they saw him first time. Even Elara Smith who rarely got impressed with anyone had her mouth hung open.That day I decided that Aiden was fuc*king mine. He belonged to me.But … but
“Pregnant?” If Elara’s face was pale, Vicky’s had turned ashen white, “h… how is it possible? Aiden… were you two sleeping behind my back?” Vicky couldn’t believe it. After waiting for this man for four more years, he had again slipped out of her clutches. “Why?” At this point, she wanted to take her own life. Everything had come to an end for her. She no longer trusted words like love, affection, or Aiden. “I can explain, Vicky,” Aiden raised his arms in total surrender, “go to your office and I’ll explain everything to you. I promise, love.” Love? Elara who was now handling her pounding headache, her eyes snapped up to look at Aiden questioning him. But his focus stayed solely on Vicky. What was exactly cooking in his head? He must have felt her eyes on him because his eyes momentarily shifted towards his wife, and he winked. Shaking his head, he went to his desk to get his phone. “I am feeling fine. It’s just the pancakes, guys.” Elara tried to protest when Aiden calle
“Don’t walk away, lady when I am talking to you,” she heard Vicky hissing and turned back in surprise, “I am not done talking to you. Come here.” Vicky snarled.The woman was already upset. Her intuition was telling her that something bad was about to happen.However, Genelia didn’t seem too fazed by her anger, “I am sorry, Ms. Barone. I think your anger is misplaced. Which side of the bed did you get up on today by the way?”“I am your boss, dammit and you are not allowed to joke with me. Especially when I am upset.” Right now, Vicky wanted to kill this lady who was acting like she knew it all.“If you are upset then please avoid talking to me. I am leaving and I would really appreciate it if you don’t call me again.”With that Genelia left the space leaving a more furious Vicky who was clenching her fists. “I will teach you a lesson. I will teach everyone a lesson who will try to act superior to me. How dare you, Edmund. You old fool. How dare you put Elara’s name there when I am t
