Alton's POVJust like what I promised to my father I started training Solana. I pick her up during her free time and it was such a huge hassle for me but I have no choice. I need to do this."I'm sorry the shoot took longer than I expected," she apologized upon stepping inside my car."Fix your schedule so you won't waste my time," I responded before starting the engine."Okay. I'm sorry," she repeated but it was no longer sincere. It is more of a sarcastic type of apology.After that none of us dared to talk until we reached the company.Upon stepping inside the employees greeted us but I didn't bother to respond, Solana, on the other hand, smiled at them and even wave back."They are not your fans," I reminded her but she just rolled her eyes."I'm just being friendly Alton, I don't want to be rude like you," she responded, mocking me.I didn't bother to defend myself, she is right anyway.When we reach my mother's office I noticed some changes. Some of the furniture is new and they
Solana's POV Morning came and upon stepping out of my room I bumped into Alton in the hallway."Good morning," I awkwardly Alton."Good morning Solana," Timothy greeted me as well when he saw me.I smiled at him and then nod my head."Good morning Dad," I greeted back."Where's Mom?" I asked when I didn't see her at the table."She left early to meet her friends," he responded so I simply nod my head and occupied the seat across from Alton."How's your training Solana?" he asked so I lift my head and look at him."Alton is a great teacher Dad. He explained everything clearly," I responded then turned my head to Alton who is already looking at me. I smiled at him but he looked away and focus his attention on his food."Alton is a great businessman Solana. He started from scratch. He built his company without my help and looked at him now, he became the most successful hotelier," Alton lift his head and then looked at his father. I saw happiness in his eyes.

Alton's POVI patiently waited for her response. She looks torn while shifting her head on me and then to Jeremiah.After a while, she decided to speak."Why don't we have lunch together?" she suggested and I already hate that idea."That's fine with me," Jeremiah responded so I have no choice but to agree.We stepped out of the studio and even though I can't see my face I know it can't be painted."You don't have to bring your car Solana, I will give you a ride," Jeremiah offered. I looked at Solana and before she gave her answer she looked at me. I raised my eyebrows while looking her directly in the eyes."Thank you, Jeremiah but I'll bring my car," she responded and I can help but smile hearing her response.The irritation that I am feeling earlier subsided when I heard her rejecting Jeremiah's offer.Before I stepped inside my car I looked at Jeremiah."You okay?" I asked obviously to tease him.Jeremiah scoff and then glared at me."You are getting in my way bro," he responded b
Solana's POVAfter dinner, we headed home. I thought Mom and Timothy are already asleep but when we arrived we saw them in the living room watching a TV show.I walked towards them and then kissed their cheeks to greet them. Alton on the other hand simply nods his head."It's already late where have you been?" Timothy asked looking at me and then at Alton."We decided to have dinner before heading home Dad," I responded.Timothy nod his head and then looked at Alton."I am glad you are finally getting close," he said and I can hear the happiness in his tone."I want both of you to have a sibling bond.

Alton's POVIt's been two hours but Solana and Olivia are still in the middle of choosing their dresses.I looked at my wrist watch and it is already 5 PM."How long do you plan to stay here?" I asked. Olivia looked at me and then flashed a sweet smile."Five minutes babe," she said then stepped inside the fitting room.I let out a deep breath and then turned my head on Solana who is already looking at me but when I caught her she immediately looked away then stepped inside the fitting room."Solana is a great person Alton," Kris uttered out of nowhere that caught my attention so I looked at her completely confused."She always put others before herself. She is too kind. Too fragile," she added looking at me directly in the eyes with a genuine smile plastered on her face."Why are you telling me this?" I asked because I can't fully understand where this conversation is going."So you won't hurt her, she has suffered enough Alton," she uttered then focused her eyes on the dressing room
Solana's POVI knew he planned this.The way he holds his smile while his index finger brushes his lower lip. The way he swiftly turns the steering wheel using his one hand.He looks extremely in a good mood and it made everything suspicious.When he turned his head to my side he raised his eyebrow."What?" he asked still suppressing his smile."You told our driver to bring my car to an auto repair shop right?" I asked even though I already knew the answer."Yes, what is wrong with that?" he asked. I looked at him in disbelief."I just have it checked this morning," I said but he just shrugged his shoulder."I didn't know," he cooly responded and it irritates me even more."I know that was intentional," I said but he just shrugged his shoulder again."I fucking hate you, Alton," I said in an irritated tone but he just chuckled.We are always like this, sometimes we are on good terms but most of the time we fight.After a few minutes, the car stopped and upon looking outside I saw a h
Alton's POVI watched her intently while waiting for her response.After a while, she reached for her drinks with shaking hands. Solana nervously gulp her drink and after a while, she started coughing."Shit," she cursed with a bitter look on her face."Where's the powder room?" she asked looking at Jeremiah."I'll show you," Jeremiah offered and after that, they leave the table.I watched them as they stepped inside the mansion."Babe," Olivia called me so I turned my head to her."What?" I asked."I am asking you if I can stay at your condo for the meantime since it would be to hassle to drive from our house to the studio," she said and I simply nod my head since I am no longer using my condo."Thanks, babe," she happily responded then pulled me into a tight hug and even kissed me on my cheeks."Gross," Sebastian commented so Olivia punch him in the arms."You are just jealous Sebastian," Olivia said then rolled her eyes at Sebastian.I just let them quarrel while I patiently wait f

Sebastian, Alton, Olivia and I headed towards the parking lot."I will give you a ride Olivia," Sebastian offered. Olivia turned her head on Sebastian and then shook her head."It's fine Alton will take me to his condo," she said then cling her arms to Alton.My forehead creased when I heard those but I stopped myself from asking a question."Just go with Sebastian Olivia," Alton firmly uttered. Olivia looked at Alton in disbelief."Okay fine," s

My family.When I saw my daughter waving her hands at me I waved back and walked towards them a smile never left my lips."Hi Mommy," she happily uttered when I sat beside her father.I opened my arms and the moment I did that she immediately sat on my lap leaving her father."You little traitor," Alton uttered as he playfully pinched Aisha's nose.Her giggles filled our ears. I hugged her tightly and showered her with kisses."Mommy it tickles," she said while laughing so I stopped and made her face me.I stared at her face and brushed off the strands of hair that covered her face."Are you ready to go to school?" I asked.She pouted her lips which made me smile.I can see that she is not yet ready to attend school but she's already four years old so she
Alton's POVI still feel like I am living in a dream.Everything feels too good to be true.I just imagined this to happen and now that it finally came true I feel the happiest.Waking up every morning and being greeted by my wife's beautiful face always put a smile on my face.She looks angelic to look at and I will never get tired of staring at her.The sun is already shining brightly but I am still lying on our bed waiting for Solana to wake up.When I saw her slowly open her eyes my smile grew wider."Good morning," I greeted the moment her eyes met mine.She smiled back at me and stared at my face for quite some time."Good morning," she greeted back.I gently caressed her face and kissed her lips softly."What do you want for breakfast?" I asked.She paused and thought for a while before her lips rose for a smile. She must have thought of something she had been craving to eat."I want avocado toast with lots of strawberries,"I looked at her in disbelief but I guess I need to ge

Solana's POVI watched her as she walked towards us.I can't believe she's here."Why are you here?" I asked not because I didn't want her here but because I was shocked that she managed to go to Massachusetts without telling me."I want to see you bitch," she said then pulled me into a tight hug.When Kris broke off the hug she stared at my face intently. "I'm happy for you," she said with tears forming in the corner of her eyes.I know she is. She has seen how much I suffered when I tried to hide my relationship with Alton.She held my hand and gently squeezed it before turning her head on Alton. "I'm happy for you too Alton," Alton nodded his head and smiled at Kris. I know Kris witnessed how Alton suffered when I went missing for five years.She was there to help Alton cope. She became our anchor during the worst times.She was there to help Alton find me and to make Alton feel that he wasn't alone in believing that I was still alive."It happened so suddenly and I didn't get th

I want peace."Let's live here?" I asked while gently caressing her hair.Solana turned her gaze at me and looked at me directly in the eyes. "Are you sure?" she asked.I smiled at her and nodded my head. "Let's raise our kids here. We'll watch them play at the beach. Creating sand castles while we are having our morning coffee and when night comes we can have a bonfire,"Her soft laughter filled my ear. "You plan everything out?" she asked.I smiled at her and gently held her hand. "It's has been my dream when I met you,"I planted a soft kiss on her lips before turning my gaze back to the ocean.After a while, Mary called us for dinner.We walked towards their house and upon seeing their table I couldn't help but be amazed at all the food they had prepared.
Solana's POVThe morning breeze brushed my skin.I haven't opened my eyes yet but I already know where I am upon smelling the fresh air.A smile grace on my lips as I listen to the sound of the waves and my smile grew wider when I felt his warm lips on mine."Good morning," he greeted me the moment I opened my eyes.I stared at his face. I'll never get tired of looking at him. "Good morning," I replied."Let's have breakfast?" I got off the bed and walked towards the glass window where I could see the beautiful sunrise and crystal clear beach."How long had you been awake?" Alton held my waist and hugged me from behind. He rested his chin on my shoulder and buried his face on my neck.I giggled when he started planting soft kisses on my weakest spot. "You smell good," he said as he sniffed my neck."I just woke up,"He's exaggerating it. I know he just said those words to make me smile and it worked."I love your natural scent,"He continued kissing my neck while I softly caressed h

It felt cold so I caress it.I know she's scared to disappoint me. We are ready to have a baby. We are eager to have another child and we always pray for it to happen but if we are not yet meant to welcome another blessing then it's fine, we will just patiently wait for our angel to arrive.After buying the pregnancy test I drove towards the condominium building where we are currently staying.The moment we stepped inside the uni
Solana's POVDays passed and I felt the happiest. I feel free now that I am with Alton.I no longer hide what I truly felt about him."Let's have dinner later," he said before I stepped out of the car.I smiled at him and nodded my head. "Okay," I gave him a quick kiss and I thought that was enough for him but he cupped my face and claimed my lips once again, this time longer.I slapped his chest when I was out of breath. I glared at him...panting. "That's too much," I complained but his smile erased the irritation that I was feeling.He caressed my face and stared at my eyes. "I'm sorry Love I can't help it," he reasoned out then gave me a quick kiss."I'll pick you up later," he reminded me before I stepped out of his car.I waved my hands as I watched him drive away. When his car disappeared I headed inside the mall so I could help Brianna in opening the store.When I reached the store Brianna was already there and a teasing smile was already present when she saw me."What?"
